What We Do
What We Do
In Herefordshire, less than 50% of children and young people achieve Chief Medical Officer guidelines of 60 active minutes every day. We want to change this.
We work to raise the profile of PE, school sport and physical activity in schools across Herefordshire and beyond. We want schools to be able to use physical activity and movement to support young people’s learning, mental health, physical health, social and emotional development. Ultimately, we want every young person to have a positive experience of physical activity in school and benefit from this.
To achieve this, we support schools, young people and families in Herefordshire in the following ways. You can also take a look at our impact reports to find out more.
