The Government’s clear ambition is for all children and young people to have the opportunity to get active in a way that suits them.

Between 2021 and 2025, the Government has committed over £325 million to multi-sport grassroots sites across the whole of the UK.

So far, almost 2,400 sites have been supported, with thousands more young people across the entire country now able to get active and gain from all the mental and physical benefits that brings.
