Join NI’s BIGGEST School Dance-A-Thon held by the local legend Fitness Freddy!
This dance fundraiser will be broadcast online to all the schools taking part across Northern Ireland and we are encouraging all schools to get their pupils up and moving to Freddy’s dance instructions. Use your school hall/gym to hold the Dance-A-Thon and get Freddy up on the big screen so that all the pupils can follow his direction. This is a great fundraiser to get your pupils involved in as it fun for young people and it also encourages physical activity.
The Dance-A-Thon will be broadcast at 10am on Friday 24th April 2026.
We are asking all pupils taking part to dress in something colourful for the dance challenge to represent the colours of the spectrum and raise autism acceptance in their school.
Why Take Part?
- Have fun dancing
- Enjoy great music and fun from Fitness Freddy

All pupils taking part will receive a sponsor form to help raise much needed funds for local autism services. On completion, all pupils will also receive a certificate to celebrate their achievements.
The school who raises the most money will receive a £300 voucher to buy sports equipment from Decathlon.
