A partnership between Ping in the Community and Active Suffolk has helped Bramford Community Table Tennis Club’s membership surge.
The club started out after an old table was discovered in the village hall. From an initial interest of six people, it has now grown to more than 30 and holds morning and evening sessions in the village near Ipswich.
Grants from the parish council and Active Suffolk have been put towards hall hire and two brand new tables.
With an ‘all abilities welcome’ mantra, Bramford Community TTC is reducing social isolation in the rural area and providing a much-needed physical exercise opportunity by getting people out of the house and on to a table tennis table.
We caught up with players at one of the sessions as they described the physical and mental benefits they are getting from attending the sessions.
