Sport and Wellbeing Academy

The Sport and Wellbeing Academy is dedicated to improving health and wellbeing. We provide opportunities for people of all ages to embrace healthier lifestyles through fitness, nutrition, and wellbeing initiatives.

Our academy also serves as a dynamic learning environment for students, offering hands-on experience in the health and fitness industry. By working closely with local communities, we promote active living and healthy eating, fostering both physical and mental wellbeing.

Join us in creating a healthier, more active future.

Our initiatives

The Sport and Wellbeing Academy is built around three themes, each designed to promote healthier lifestyles and enhance wellbeing:

Exercise Referral Programme

Taking place at Clifton Campus, we offer a 12-week exercise referral programme to help reduce health inequalities by promoting physical activity and healthy eating. If you’re eligible, participants will complete a health and fitness assessment to measure baseline fitness levels.

School Sport and Physical Activity

We're committed to getting more young people active. Our academy will support local schools in delivering The Daily Mile, a fun and inclusive physical activity initiative. We'll also provide coaching in both multi-sports and specialist sports, helping to inspire the next generation to stay active and enjoy movement.
