Brent Active Together – Test & Learn Pilot
Families on Wheels
Learn to Skate Together – Strengthen Family Bonds Through Movement
About the Pilot
Families on Wheels is a Test & Learn pilot designed to shape Brent’s new Family Learn-to-Skate Programme.
Through this short trial, families will help co-design the final model by sharing feedback and reflections after each session. Your experiences will directly influence how we build future opportunities for families to play, move, and learn together across Brent.
What’s on Offer:
We’re offering 14 private, one-hour Learn-to-Skate sessions, each for one family of up to four people (minimum one adult).
Each session will:
- Be led by a qualified RollaDome coach
- Include skates, protective gear, and a safety briefing
- Teach families skating step-by-step with a focus on fun, teamwork, and
confidence
- End with a short reflection and feedback activity
Our Aim:
To explore how learning together can help families:
- Spend quality time and stay active as a unit
- Build confidence and communication through shared experiences
- Strengthen relationships while being physically active
- Co-create a lasting, inclusive family skating model for Brent
Who Can Apply
- Families living in Brent (priority to Wembley Ward)
- Immediate family only – parents, children, and siblings living in the same
household
- Up to four participants per family (must include at least one adult)
