About Care Fit Collective

Care Fit Collective provides specialist exercise and wellbeing programmes for people living in care and supported settings. We take a strength based approach, focusing on what people can do, what they enjoy, and what helps them feel confident and connected.

Care Fit Collective is based in Leeds, supporting care settings across West Yorkshire and the wider Yorkshire region.

Why We Exist

Care environments present unique challenges. Residents may experience reduced mobility, declining confidence, limited opportunities for stimulation, or social isolation.

Care Fit Collective was created to address this by offering inclusive, engaging movement sessions that support not just physical activity, but confidence, connection, and quality of life.

We believe that movement should be accessible to everyone, regardless of age or ability, and delivered in a way that promotes dignity, choice, and positive participation.

Our Approach

Our approach is grounded in care-first values and an understanding of the realities of care settings.

We believe exercise in care should be:

• Inclusive - adaptable to different abilities, mobility levels, and communication needs

• Person-centred - shaped around the individuals taking part, not a rigid programme

• Safe and respectful - prioritising comfort, dignity, and wellbeing

• Engaging and enjoyable - encouraging participation through music, interaction, and positive reinforcement

Every session is delivered with patience, empathy, and a genuine commitment to the people we support.

Experience You Can Trust

With over two years’ experience delivering programmes across more than 30 care settings, we understand the professional, practical, and emotional demands of working in care.

Our experience includes supporting:

• Older adults living in residential and nursing care

• Adults with learning disabilities

• Mixed-ability groups with varying cognitive, physical, and communication needs

This experience allows us to adapt confidently to different environments while maintaining consistent, high-quality delivery.

Working Alongside Care Teams

Our sessions are delivered in line with individual care and activity plans. We work alongside staff to support existing goals around mobility, engagement, confidence and wellbeing.

This means:

• Clear and respectful communication

• Sensitivity to environments, schedules, and staffing pressures

• Flexibility to adapt sessions as needs change

• A partnership approach rather than a “drop-in” service

By working alongside care teams, we help create sessions that are safe, meaningful, and genuinely beneficial.

Quality, Safety & Dignity

Quality and safety underpin everything we do.

All sessions are:

• Aligned with CQC standards

• Supported by clear risk assessments

• Delivered with strong safeguarding and professional boundaries

• Designed to encourage positive, inclusive participation

Our priority is always to create a calm, respectful, and uplifting experience for everyone involved.
