Active Together 2022/23 Annual Review

We have recently published our 2022/23 annual review document which showcases the work of the Active Together Board, Team, and Partners. Here you can read about some of our headline achievements and a range of case studies that demonstrate the difference our collective work does to improve people's lives.

"We learned from the Pandemic that residents recognise the need to be physically active. What influences them to take the step are places, family and friends. By tapping into that, we lead change. For example, more than 4,000 young people participated in our Holiday Activities and Food programme. Almost 90% of them were eligible for free school meals."

"The report also shows how working with communities amplifies outcomes. That's why our next challenge is to tackle the inequality that exists in some areas. During the next 12 months, we will focus on extending opportunity to our most disadvantaged residents."

- Mike Sandys (Chair, Active Together)
