CARE

 Movement in Care 

Make movement part of everyday care.

Help your team recognise everyday opportunities for movement, and support each resident’s independence, dignity and wellbeing with confidence.

Created by Aspire Training Solutions in collaboration with Bailey Greetham-Clark, founder of Be Great Fitness and an advocate for incorporating movement into everyday care.

Movement matters throughout the day

When movement depends on a scheduled session or one staff member, you can miss opportunities throughout the day. A shared game, reaching for something or taking part in a familiar activity can offer meaningful opportunities to move, make choices and participate.

Your staff already know a great deal about the people they support. The challenge is helping them use that knowledge confidently: recognising opportunities, understanding what is appropriate and adapting their approach to the individual.

That is where Movement in Care begins.

Build movement into the way your whole home cares

Created with input from Berkley Care Group and informed by collaboration with Care England and RoSPA, Movement in Care combines apprenticeship training, wider workforce development and practical resources to support a whole-home culture of movement.

Develop the lead

 

Care Activator Coach apprenticeship

Develop an employee who can champion movement, plan and adapt activities, and help colleagues recognise opportunities to involve residents.

Practical learning gives apprentices time to try approaches, receive feedback and connect coaching skills with the people they support.

The care pathway sits within the Level 2 Community Activator Coach apprenticeship. Expert-led Masterclasses, practical Skills Festivals and individual Skills Coach support help apprentices connect their learning with the people they support.


Equip the wider workforce

Movement in Care qualification

Give colleagues across your home a shared understanding of why movement matters and how they can support it in their roles.

The RoSPA-endorsed qualification includes about 30 guided learning hours covering individual needs, communication, safety, age-related conditions, and adapting activities and movement within everyday routines.

The programme builds on existing Level 2 Moving and Handling training and complements RoSPA’s proportionate handling principles.


Keep practical support within reach

Movement in Care Hub

 

Give your team somewhere to turn for practical inspiration.

Our developing digital support portal brings together movement ideas and resources staff can use as they plan activities and explore opportunities in everyday routines.

 

It connects learning with ongoing practice, giving colleagues a place to find adaptable ideas for the people they support. 

 


Keep independence and dignity at the heart

For someone receiving care, being involved in an everyday activity can mean having a choice, using their abilities and continuing something that matters to them.

Our focus is prevention: supporting people to remain active and involved, with opportunities to use and maintain their abilities in daily life.

For your workforce, the aim is greater confidence in supporting participation. For your organisation, it is a more consistent approach beyond the activities timetable.

Together, these ambitions connect workforce development with the wider health and care system’s focus on prevention and independence.

Practical expertise brought into everyday care

Movement in Care builds on Bailey’s experience of helping older adults participate in meaningful movement.

We’re currently piloting the apprenticeship with Berkley Care Group which helps us connect the learning with everyday care-home practice.
