Exhilarating. Motivating. Energising. Revitalising.
These are the opportunities that Active Fakenham aims to help make available to Fakenham people who live in, work at and visit our lovely North Norfolk market town and the surrounding villages.
Active Fakenham is a small voluntary group and works with local clubs, organisations and businesses to initiate, organise and promote activities that enrich the health and wellbeing of Fakenham’s residents and visitors.
