Our fun and interactive weekly drumming workshops gave us an opportunity to bring both the young and old BME and local indigenous population to the outside world for activities for healthy living. In this project we used Shona traditional games and play to provide a culture friendly exercise environment or social context to encourage exercising. BME communities suffered worse health outcomes and the most significantly reduced activity levels as a result of the pandemic. The powerful effect of music that is of cultural accordance helped stimulate familiarity. Our mixed age group participants really enjoyed and benefited from the energetic dance moves and the variety of rhythmic drumming.
