Sport England's Place Partnership Expansion Programme is a £250 million investment targeting areas in the top 20% for deprivation, health inequalities, and inactivity.
Harlow has been identified as a Place Partnership area due to high levels of physical inactivity, particularly amongst children and young people.
Harlow will receive £998,244 in Place Partnership funding to support community-led physical activity and movement projects that offer direct support for residents to be active.
You can benefit from free activity sessions that will be taking place in Harlow as part of the Place Partnership work.
