How to join Step Ahead

Before you join, we offer everyone the opportunity to try an activity to test the waters and make sure you enjoy the atmosphere and style on offer at Step Ahead. So, head to our activities page and take a look to find something you’d like to do.

Then, get in touch with us to arrange it. You can visit one of our houses to take a look around, and take part in an activity. This will give you a chance to meet the team and other members, and ask any questions you might have.

Assuming you like what you see, you can sign up. It’s a simple process, and once you’re a member, you can sign up for as many activities as you like.

It is free to join Step Ahead.
