We believe in the power of physical activity to enrich lives
Being active has multiple benefits for all ages - from physical health to mental wellbeing. That’s why we’re out there supporting kids and their families to develop healthy lifestyles, delivering fundamental skills programmes in schools, helping young women build their confidence through physical activity and encouraging women of all ages to get active and try something new. Because it's not just about being active - it's about being active for life.
