Year in Review 2022-2023

Our Mission
Physical activity is a key part of the overall solution.
We work with system partners across local government, health and social care, education, and the voluntary and community sectors to find shared objectives, and build solutions to help those who can benefit the most from being more physically active.
Our Vision
A Norfolk where being physically active is just ‘what people do’ in their daily life. Where financial circumstances, health and ability aren’t a barrier to exercise. Where opportunities are designed around individual and community needs and promoted so effectively that everyone knows about them and why they should be involved.
