Sid Sloane from CBeebies Champions Children’s Futures

Sid Sloane has lived a life of wellbeing for over 20 years. Known for educating children through fun learning shows on CBeebies, he has taken to empowering children to harness a happy, healthy lifestyle teaching skills for achievement through positive physical, mental and emotional health, with his education programmes 'SidTALKS' and 'Healthy Little Steps’.

Anyone who has had children over the last 15 years will instantly recognise the voice and face of Sid Sloane. Many parents and children will know him simply as Sid, star of ‘Let’s Play’ and one of the original CBeebies presenters helping to launch the channel in 2002.

Sid has channelled his fame into two ground-breaking initiatives for children’s wellbeing, setting up breakfast and after-school clubs called ‘Healthy Little Steps’ and launching ‘SidTALKS’. Sid inspires pupils with talks about his experiences growing up, woven into usable tools that teach the value of nurturing their own health (physical, mental and emotional) to meet life’s challenges ahead.

From his roots in an unforgiving council estate environment through to the heady heights of television celebrity SidTALKS are highly motivational sessions with mass appeal.

As an accomplished public speaker and actor, (Sid has presented his own BBC radio show, has many Radio 4 plays, voice-over credits, as well as writes and performs poetry for children and adults) he has an enthralling and engaging delivery style which captures and holds the audiences imagination.

Sid has set up ‘Healthy Little Steps’ to help curb childhood obesity and other health issues, such as stress and anxiety in children. Although Sid lives a life now of health and wellbeing he never used to, and he offers his own unique way of encouraging and teaching others the skills he gained to turn things around. Sid carries a good clean message of help and hope to inspire and motivate others. He shares his knowledge and life skills, delivering a positive and health driven reality for children to carry into adulthood.

Sid Sloane said: “For nearly 20 years I have been associated with the education of children through television. Now I am reaching out in person to the health and education sector to help children from every walk of life understand that if you look after your health you learn to respect yourself, and that leads to a positive mental shift in a child’s perception of themselves, helping them to harness their true potential.”
