Welcome to Access Sport

Transforming Lives Through Sport

Founded in 2004 Access Sport is a dynamic charity whose mission is to give more children, particularly in disadvantaged areas, access to a wide range of quality local sport. We look to harness the proven power of sport to tackle social exclusion, inactivity and obesity in areas where help is most needed. We achieve this through empowering the inspirational community volunteers who set up and run local sports clubs with cash, expert advice and networking to help create thriving clubs which get more people positively engaged.

BMX Roadshow coming to East London next week!

Access Sport, in partnership with Chain Reaction Cycles, has launched a five day BMX Roadshow that will tour across five Olympic host boroughs during the February half-term next week. The individual events will offer free BMX coaching and mark the launch of a new BMX time-trial race series across the capital. The BMX Roadshow is part of Access Sport’s BMX Legacy Project to create a new wave of BMX participation in London.
