Moving Communities Information

Sport England and Government recognise the vital role that gyms and leisure centres play in helping people to be active. This why we’re developing Moving Communities to track participation at public leisure facilities and provide new evidence to monitor the sector’s performance, sustainability and social value. The data helps local authorities, leisure providers and policymakers to support the recovery of public gyms and leisure centres. It will also measure the impact of £100m provided by the Exchequer via Sport England’s National Leisure Recovery Fund and inform future investment decisions to help strengthen communities and improve our nation’s health and wellbeing.
