Welcome to the Active Communities Team which is part of Adur and Wothing Councils' Planning, Regeneration and Wellbeing Service. Our role is to:
A core value for us is that we believe that everybody can improve the quality of their lives by regular participation in physical activity.
Each person is different so the benefits we can get from taking part will vary from individual to individual but here are
| Reason | Why |
|---|---|
| Fun | Regular participation in activities that you enjoy is fun |
| Fitness | Remember that mental well being is as important as physical fitness to our overall health. |
| Fulfilment | Whether you are performing or learning a new skill the sense of achievement can be massive. |
| Friendship | Activities bring like minded people together to enjoy shared experiences and each other’s company. |
| Freedom | You can escape the pressures of everyday life for an hour or two by taking part in a physical activity. |
Development is about making a difference in the long term. Whilst we are happy to organise events, we expect these to be linked to outcomes that will bring about lasting improvements.
We can not do our work alone and we rely heavily on developing partnerships with local voluntary groups and other public and commercial organisations as well as collaborating with our colleagues within the Councils.
