  1. Our Impact

Our Impact 2021/22

"Sport changed my life, and being in a position to help children who struggle like I struggled, is really rewarding"
 - Connor, Young Leader

In 2021/22 we improved the lives of 8144 children and young people, enabling them to access the transformative benefits of inclusive, community sport.

This is a significant uplift on the previous year’s figure of 5284 and is in line with our ambition to scale-up our delivery and expand our reach as outlined in Stand For Inclusion – our 2022-2027 Growth Strategy.

Please scroll down to meet some of the young people we work with and take a look at some of our truly inclusive community sports clubs.

Below is a further breakdown of the impact that we have achieved during 2021/2022.

 

2021/22 Summary

These figures are the beneficiaries we reach through the community clubs we support and the direct delivery we run.

In addition to this direct reach, we have also benefitted entire communities through the three new, all-ability community cycling facilities that we delivered in 2021/22 in Hartcliffe (Bristol), Bexley (London) and Salford (Greater Manchester). 

According to the traffic counters installed at these sites they have been used a total of 26,683 times from December 2021 to March 2022. This equates to over 7000 visits per month. 

A survey of users suggested that there have been approximately 3435 unique users during the winter 2021/22, and at least 45% of riders surveyed have used the tracks more than nine times in total.
