Early years settings can still register for free sports equipment from Haven

UK nurseries and early years settings are still being urged to sign up to the Haven Fun & Fitness scheme.

The initiative, now in its third year, aims to benefit children under the age of five with free sports equipment.

Thousands of playgroups and nurseries are already registered, but there is still time to get early years settings listed.
  
Haven organisers said: “We are concerned that too many youngsters will miss out on all the benefits of up to £250 worth of equipment available to pre-schools and nurseries.”

The kits are designed to encourage youngsters to keep fit through active play and typically include  balls, hoops, cones, skipping ropes, soft foam flyers and a mini parachute. 

Early years settings simply need to register their interest on www.havenfunfitness.com  and encourage parents to visit the website and leave a simple message of support.
