However, we know that access to physical activity opportunities isn’t universal, and furthermore, the barriers which exist need breaking down most for those historically under-represented groups.
In creating a ‘Physical Activity System’ which focuses on reducing health inequalities, CONNECTED firmly places Active Cheshire’s role as a strategic partner.
We’ve been commissioned by Sport England as a Systems Partner for 5 years, 2022 – 2027, to play a key role in achieving the aims of the ‘Uniting the Movement’ Strategy. As such, we will create and lead a Physical Activity System, uniting the public, private and voluntary sector to embed physical activity in the everyday lives for everyone.

Our impact will be felt across the life course. In practice, this means will focus on our energy and resources on:
Start Well

Live Well
As life priorities change and time becomes more precious, data shows us that physical activity can quickly become physical inactivity.
Age Well
At 65, the opportunities to remain physically active into later life remain as engrained in health inequalities as they do at any other life course stage.
Our mission
"To connect movement, physical activity and sport opportunities to communities across Cheshire & Warrington, tackling health-inequalities and providing greater and fairer access for all."

Active Cheshire CONNECTED will work in partnership with local trusted organisations to support communities to use new and existing infrastructure (including digital) to ensure ageing well means more years of happy, healthy life.
