I just wanted to let you know that I did attend the Take Part opening event and when I arrived at 12 the Urban Playground was on so I watched that. From wandering around this site I was really impressed with the range of activities and overheard a lot of families enjoying the day. Well done to everyone involved!

Congratulations on a wonderful opening event, I came down at lunchtime and I was really impressed by the diverse sports and the huge crowds. My friend has signed me up to Spartan training in Preston Park for the Summer so I will soon be taking part in sport again!

I would like to congratulate BHCC for a superb event in Preston Park at the weekend. On Saturday the whole of the park was given over to all the different sports available in Brighton at the International Festival of Sport, and it was free. It was a great day and my two 6 year olds found it inspiring and have given them further impetus to get involved. We are looking forward to next year already. I also thought it was superb and have vowed to take part in some more local activities. Well done to all the organisers  and sponsors.

I just wanted to say, on behalf of us all at The Choi Foundation, thank you so much for organising such a brilliant event. In my day job I am an Events Director, so I know exactly how difficult this event must have been to organise and you did an amazing job, not just on the day but with communications before as well. We were also thrilled with the response we received and have signed up 31 students to come along to our 2 week introduction course. Looking forward to the Hove Lawns next week and to an even bigger and better event next year. Finally, don’t forget, you’re always welcome to come have some trial classes with us at The Choi Foundation. Thank you again

we had a great day (a little sunburn here and there!) had a good turn out of my students and they all had an excellent day. Met lots of new potential students and other martial arts schools.

I just wanted to say a big well done for a fantastic day on Saturday. I was delighted to see so many people turn out for it and I thought the organisation of it was great. It was lovely to be part of the day and the Activity sessions I was helping to run had over 300 people take part throughout the day. I look forward to helping with some of the events and activites scheduled for the next couple of weeks but I wanted to congratulate you all on a great opening event.

It was a fantastic day and yes we had lots of interest in Taekwondo. Yes we would love to attend next years event and make it better. I am already looking to try and get one or two of the GB Olympic taekwondo team there. I would also like to commend you for your students for their cooperation and respectful attitude.

Many thanks for your support and help for the Run for the Children event on Saturday – both in the lead up preparation and on the day itself. The day itself went well really well for us. Great feedback and people enjoyed themselves. We hope to grow numbers again for next year, now we have the first year under our belt and established some form of awareness. The festival itself looked great and the turnout looked impressive. So well done to you. A great job!
