Following successful trials we want to expand our Mental Health and Dementia programmes across the UK becoming a major early intervention activity linking in with the NHS and other partners to maximise impact in a simple and proven way providing cognitive and social benefits for local communities.

Mental Health problems in the UK are set to increase by 30% in 2030 if current trends continue. Over 200,000 people will develop Dementia this year, that's one every three minutes.
Studies show that there is a 20% to 30% lower risk of depression and dementia for adults participating in daily physical activity. Tennis has an added benefit of cognitive and social activity. TFF through proven group games maximise all these benefits in a safe and structured setting. TFF can become a major factor in early intervention of Mental Health and Dementia. We will also look to fund professional support for attendees alongside the TFF activity where required.
