Our Story
Born in Challenging Times, Driven by Purpose
CHW was founded at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in response to the extraordinary challenges faced by individuals and communities. As the world shut down and life as we knew it came to a halt, the need for support in maintaining both physical and mental wellbeing became more urgent than ever. What began as a local initiative to keep people active and healthy during lockdown rapidly evolved into a comprehensive approach to health and wellbeing.

The Birth of CHW_CLUB
In January 2021, in response to the growing mental health crisis, we launched CHW_CLUB—an innovative online platform designed to improve fitness, wellbeing, and reduce illness in communities and workplaces alike. The platform provided much-needed structure and support during turbulent times, fostering both physical and mental resilience. Its success not only affirmed the importance of holistic health solutions but also opened the door to extending our reach to wider communities.

Expanding Our Reach
By 2023, we had introduced CHW_CLUB to HMP Dovegate, focusing on supporting prison staff. This initiative was a resounding success, leading to the creation of something truly groundbreaking—CHW_Empower. Designed specifically to address the health, fitness, and rehabilitation needs of secure establishments, CHW_Empower marks a major step forward in our mission to promote holistic wellbeing in often-overlooked communities.
