The new Rother Sport and Physical Activity Strategy 2018-20

The new Rother Sports and Physical Activity Strategy builds on the achievements of our first strategy, as well as looking at the key areas the Active Rother Partnership wishes to focus on in the future. Sport and physical activity can make a significant contribution towards the overall wellbeing and prosperity of the District. Therefore, in addition to supporting increased sport and physical activity participation, we can contribute to work aimed at strengthening communities and building social capacity in Rother. This is a partnership strategy, reflecting the work that has taken place over the past six years to develop the Active Rother Partnership. Our vision is that the Rother District is an active place, where it is easy to engage in the sport and physical activity opportunities available. The strategy prioritises action on inactivity amongst under-represented groups and communities, who we know are significantly less likely to play sport and be physically active than the population in general. The strategy details our achievements since 2012, our vision, our strategic aims and priorities and sets out what we know about current sports and physical activity participation. It also details the wide range of work that will be undertaken to deliver our strategic aims and introduces a new outcomes framework that will be used to measure the impact of our work. The Active Rother Partnership and co-ordination of work to deliver these strategic aims is led by Rother District Council.
