Active Partnerships

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
