Hull, October 1st 2015:
Active Communities Network are delighted to announce a grant of £496,200 from the Sport England’s Community Sports Activation Fund today. The 5 Star Active project will work with over 1000 young people aged 14-25 from Hull as part of programme delivering across eight cities. Over the next two years Active Communities Network and Achieve Potentials will drive up sports participation through delivering a multi-sport offer. In addition to this 5 Star Active will develop their skills to create a new generation of community leaders and support them access employment opportunities.
The project will target young people who have significant risks in their lives, such as exposure to crime, poor achievement at school and having low confidence and self-esteem. 5 Star Active uses sport to provide a pathway to not only drive participation but also achieve wider social outcomes to improve the lives of many in Hull.
Gary Stannett, Chief Executive, Active Communities Network said
“We are absolutely thrilled to announce this funding which will drive participation within some of Hull’s most deprived communities. Our 5 Star Active partnership offers a national platform which enables funders such as Sport England a mechanism to deliver localised projects within a broader national programme. Active Communities Network uses sport to provide a pathway for young people to achieve and we are committed to working with 14-25 year olds to ensure we not only increase participation but also support wider social outcomes such as promoting citizenship and improving access to employment.”
Sport England Director of Community Sport, Mike Diaper, said,
“It’s great to be working with innovative projects like 5 Star Active which offer more people the chance to get active in a way that suits them best. Given the overwhelming benefits of being active, it’s important that age, gender, or income never prevent anyone from taking part.”
