Active Partnerships
Public Health
Working with partners to make an active lifestyle the norm for everyone
About us
Our core purpose is to create the conditions for an active nation. There are 43 Active Partnerships across England who work collaboratively with local partners to create the conditions for an active nation using the power of sport and physical activity to transform lives. Active Partnerships are strategic organisations that recognise activity levels are affected by a complex system of influences and no single organisation or programme create sustainable change at scale. So by adopting a collaborative whole system approach, Active Partnerships seek to make active lifestyles the social norm for everyone and address the worrying levels of inactivity in society. The Active Partnerships national team leads, represents and supports the nationwide network of Active Partnerships and supports them to collaborate, sustain, add value and deliver impact. We are a charitable company and have a federated structure. You can find details of your local Active Partnership at www.ActivePartnerships.org

Loving this as a showcase of some of the excellent work nationally Active Partnerships and locally Active Cornwall ! Using investment and partnership to bring inspiration and activity to #schools and #communities 👏👏👏
Funded by the Department for Education, the #OpeningSchoolFacilities programme was a huge success in year two and we recently spoke to teachers and representatives from the #ActivePartnerships network, including Tim from Active Cornwall, to find out more about the positive impact the programme has had in schools and in the local community. We are delighted to be working in partnership with StreetGames UK, ukactive and Youth Sport Trust on this programme.

Read an update on our project with Move Consulting which looks at how to better integrate physical activity pathways across health and care ⬇ Physical activity has the potential to transform the future health of our nation and help relieve pressure on our health system.
We believe the Physical Activity for Health Pathways project could be a real gamechanger across England. A collaboration with Active Partnerships and funded by Sport England, we have the potential to transform preventative health care. 👩⚕️ Just imagine seeing a health professional who is then able to suggest different physical activity options which could help manage your condition (or prevent it altogether...) To find out where we're at with the project and how to get involved, see our latest update 👇 https://lnkd.in/eqDPmC5m Craig Blain Elaine McNish Annie Holden

The #ActivePartnerships network is working closely with Sport England on the investment it’s making into places across England. This work is focused on tackling inequality and making sure that the people and places that face the biggest barriers to being active get the most help.
"Right now, we don’t all have the same opportunities to get involved in physical activity close to home, work or education." That’s why we have begun expanding our Place Partnerships to the communities who need the most support to live more active lives.
