Meet Keily and Shirley

NEW community workers are hoping to get residents in Harwich and Dovercourt more active by giving them one to one to support.

Shirley Barrell and Keily Bramhill have joined Community Voluntary Services Tendring (CVST) as physical activity volunteer and community connectors.

Based in Harwich, they will be working with residents who would benefit from moving more.

Keily said: “We are here to help people who may not know what there is in the area to take part in, or who might need some support and encouragement to try something new.

“You don’t need to be fit or physically able – it’s not all running or jumping about unless that’s what you want, it’s more about increasing your movement.”
