Partnerships
Working together
We value working in partnership with organisations from within and outside the sport and education sectors. Your organisation does not need to have worked in sport or education in order to partner with us; we have often found that the best partnerships come from organisations with different backgrounds but whose outcomes are shared!
Stride Active is proud to work with the following local and national partners:
Active Herefordshire & Worcestershire
One of our closest partners, we are commissioned to deliver the county School Games festivals and provide PE Premium support. We work together to share best practice and insight with the shared goal of increasing children’s activity levels.

We are very fortunate to be hosted and supported by Whitecross School. We are able to use their fantastic facilities for events and competitions and Headteacher, Tim Knapp, is Chair of the School Games County Alliance.
