TWO students have secured funding to launch an unusual lunchtime club at the college’s Honeywell campus.
Level 3 Health and Social Care students Antilina Mutowa and Tania Muhone are offering the opportunity for some cheerleading fun.
What started as a shared interest has grown into a dynamic student-led initiative, bringing energy, teamwork, and fitness to the college week.
“We started the cheerleading club because we saw it as an interesting and fun sport,” Antilina said. “Tania had experience with it before and told me how great it is for relieving stress and keeping fit. That really inspired us!”
For Tania, it’s a passion that started back in secondary school: “I used to cheerlead before moving to the UK,” she said. “It’s something I’ve always loved and wanted to share.”
With determination and drive, the duo successfully secured funding to bring their vision to life.
“Getting the funding felt like a door to success had opened. It was a huge step forward – not just for us, but for the future of cheerleading at the college. It gave us real hope that we’re starting something meaningful.”
At its core, the cheerleading club is about fun, fitness, and friendship.
“We hope it brings people together,” says Antilina. “It’s a great way to meet new friends, stay active, and try something new.”
