Comments Off on NL Active supports carers with half-price concession card for Active April

In celebration of Active April, NL Active is proud to support carers by offering a 50% discount on Active Concession Cards throughout the month. This special offer is part of the wider Carers Active April campaign, run by Carers UK, which encourages carers to stay active and look after their own health and wellbeing.

During April, carers can purchase a 12-month concession card for just £3—half the usual price. The card provides discounted access to a range of health and fitness activities including gym sessions, swimming, and racket sports at NL Active venues.

To qualify for the discounted concession card, carers will need to provide proof of address, along with one of the following forms of identification:

  • A Carers Emergency Card

  • A Carers Card UK

  • A letter of recent contact from the Carers Support service

  • A letter of recent contact from the Carers Team

  • Evidence of receiving Carer’s Allowance

This offer recognises the vital role carers play in our communities and aims to support their physical and mental wellbeing through access to affordable fitness opportunities.

For more information about the campaign, visit the Carers UK website.
