2. inspiring individuals to fulfil their sporting potential
3. creating sustainable opportunities in the community

We focus on:

• women
• older people
• people with disabilities

We work with

• youth groups
• retirement centres
• other community organisations

We use a range of methods to meet the local needs including

• Taster Days
• Introductory sessions
• Activity programmes of 10 –12 weeks duration
• Short Courses
• Competitions.

Current Programme

See the Current Programme section for details about our latest projects.

We are committed to recruiting and training people as sports coaches, officials and administrators so that the skills are available in the community to sustain whatever schemes we start.

Coach Scholarships and Advice

The Coach Scholarship Scheme provides financial assistance to help cover the cost of training courses.

We aim to make a difference in the long term and a lot of our time is spent supporting local clubs and other groups with advice about funding and how to develop their infrastructure.
