Get Active

The 'Get Active' programme has been developed to give young people aged 8-13 years extra support to reach their potential. It offers access to out-of-school provision and opportunities for young people. The programme also supports families to get involved in activities and trips together throughout the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead.

The programme has been developed to include extra funding towards sport and activities that will have a significant impact on hard to reach young people. In general terms, it is for young people who are involved in little or no physical activity and their long-term health will suffer as a consequence.

The programme aims to address areas such as raising self esteem, tackling obesity, improving social skills, access to activities for low income families, extra support for young people with disabilities, life skills as well as fulfilling hopes and aspirations. The long-term goal is that each young person finds an activity they want to continue and can access on a regular basis and continue into adulthood.

Get Active runs regular activity sessions for 8-13 year olds through school term time and school holidays including club based activities, activity residentials and family days. Included in the sessions there are a range of activities such as sports and physical activities and arts and crafts.
