Active Groups

Calling all local exercise and physical activity providers

Whether you're a local sports club, school, par of an extended schools programme, a voluntary or community group or a private section provider, we want to hear from you.

What's Active Durham about?

Active Durham is a new network supported by Sport England. It wants to bring like-minded people together to provide local sport and exercise opportunities in a more coordinated way.

The aim is to get local people more active by making it easier for them to take part in sport and physical activity, no matter what age or ability.

How can you help?

We want you to join an action group, based in your local area.
These groups will meet regularly to promote existing clubs and activities, identify new opportunities and to encourage more people to take up exercise.

What's in it for you?

It's your chance to have a bigger voice, raising the profile of sport and physical activity locally and giving you the opportunity to attract new people to your own club or activity sessions.

It's your chance to get extra support and advice including funding and training opportunities. It's your chance to have your say in securing the future of local sport.
