YST Conference 2022: Inspiring Changemakers

The crucial roles that PE, physical activity and sport play in the wellbeing of all members of a school have never been more evident than in the last 18 months. Evidence of growing inequalities has been met with a real determination to be there for the young people who need us the most, using the power of sport and play to improve both physical and mental wellbeing.

The Youth Sport Trust (YST) annual Conference will provide an opportunity for the sector to unite, explore the opportunities that have arisen from a period of such great challenge and look forward to the exciting potential of the coming years.

The programme has something for everyone, including the biggest ever line up of inspirational keynote speakers from the world of youth engagement, sport, leadership and education. There will be a wide range of workshops and expert panels offering practical solutions and thought leading innovation as well as ample time for networking and visiting our large exhibition space.

New for 2022, YST are working with Nexus Education to offer NeXworking, a fast-paced 90-minute networking session providing delegates with dedicated time with exhibitors, designed to maximise your networking time at the YST Conference.

Here is just a small taste of what the workshops will offer:

• The role of PE and sport in addressing growing inequalities
• Getting to the heart of a Well School – tackling the growing wellbeing crisis for all young people
• Transforming curriculums to respond to the impact and lessons from COVID

(the full programme with all sessions and keynotes will be released over the coming weeks)
