As we come to the end of an incredible year, we’re reflecting on the impact, energy, and community spirit that made 2025 so special. Before we dive in, please note that Nuvo Wellbeing will close for Christmas Break from Wednesday 17th December and will reopen on Monday 5th January. We hope you enjoy a restful and joyful festive season! 🎄❄️
One of our proudest moments this year was being honoured as the Best Micro Organisation (1–9 employees) at the Northern Power Women Awards. This award is a true celebration of the dedication and passion of our small but mighty team. It reflects our ongoing commitment to improving the health and wellbeing of the communities we serve, and the difference we continue to make every day.
Our Dance 4 Life 2025 event, held in April, brought international dancers and choreographers to the North East, offering over 90 young people a rare opportunity to learn from some of the best in the industry.
Throughout a day packed with workshops, performances, and inspiring talks, young people:
✨ Sponsor Dance 4 Life: Help us continue offering world-class opportunities for young people across the region.
✨ Pay It Forward Tickets: Donate £10 and give a child from a low-income background the chance to attend for free and discover the joy of dance.

In July, our N-Dance Academy and adult disability groups lit up the stage at our Annual Showcase. Participants proudly performed the routines they had worked on throughout the year, creating a wonderful celebration for families, instructors, and the community.
We’re already excited to see the progress and creativity that next year’s Showcase will bring!
This year’s Strictly Nuvo fundraising gala brought businesses out of the office and onto the dance floor! Teams of complete beginners trained, performed, and competed live—all while raising funds for vital local causes.
Each year we partner with a local charity, such as North Tees Hospital Children’s Ward or The Teesside Charity, ensuring every step taken makes a meaningful impact.
In 2025, we raised an incredible £10,000!

In 2025, we delivered over 20 projects, and celebrated supporting 61,000 people on their wellbeing journey. Here are two standout programmes that made a real difference:
In partnership with the Northern Cancer Alliance, Macmillan Cancer Support, and local NHS Foundation Trusts, our Waiting Well Prehab Programme supports people diagnosed with cancer before treatment.
Participants build strength, improve wellbeing, and prepare physically and emotionally for the journey ahead. Evidence shows that those who remain active before treatment are 80% more likely to have successful outcomes, making this programme an invaluable part of cancer care.
In collaboration with Wellbeing of Women and Holland & Barrett, we delivered our Women’s Health Programme, offering female-only wellbeing sessions, menstrual education, and tailored fitness classes.
As one of only five organisations selected nationally, we’re proud to support women and girls—especially those in underserved communities—by creating safe, empowering, and supportive spaces to improve health and confidence.
As we wrap up an unforgettable 2025, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been part of the Nuvo Wellbeing journey this year.
To our incredible participants, partners, funders, supporters, volunteers, dancers, families, and our brilliant team, thank you. Your energy, dedication, and belief in our mission continue to drive everything we do.
Whether you joined a session, supported an event, partnered with us on a project, or simply cheered us on, your contribution has helped us empower 61,000 people to move more, feel better, and live healthier, happier lives.
We can’t wait to step into 2026 with you. Here’s to even more impact, inspiration, and community spirit in the year ahead!
Wishing you a wonderful festive break and a joyful New Year 🎄✨
