We've achieved "Very Good" in our recent QUEST Assessment

We are pleased to announce that LRS has achieved a "Very Good" rating in our 2018 Quest Assessment. The external assessment was commissioned by Sport England and is designed to measure the organisational effectiveness of a County Sport Partnership and its ability to deliver a wide range of strategic outputs. Quest is the sport and leisure industry's leading quality assurance scheme.

We were externally assessed across 8 core areas of business including Leadership, Partnerships and Brokering, Contribution to Health and Wellbeing and Engaging with Older People. LRS were rated "Very Good" for 7 out of 8 modules with some aspects of our work to get the Inactive more Active being rated as excellent.

The Quest report highlighted a range of strengths and commented that staff are well respected and trusted in their networks, that there is strong evidence of collaborative working and that LRS has improvement and innovation at the forefront of their mind, striving to be the best they can be.

John Byrne (Director, Leicester-Shire & Rutland Sport) said:
"This is a very positive outcome to what was a challenging process and real recognition for a job well done by our team and Board. However, we know there are areas where we can develop further and we will be working hard this year to improve the services that we offer".
