Physical Activity Capacity Support in the Black Country
|
|
Introduction
The “Be Active Be Healthy” Strategy signalled the Government’s intention to build on
the existing work of County Sport and Physical Activity Partnerships (CSPAPs) in
supporting the delivery of the wider Physical Activity agenda by investing £3m across
the network of 49 CSPAPs in 2009/10. The Consortium has contracted VAGA to assist
Simon Hall, the Partnership Director to engage local and regional stakeholders, to
secure support for the developing work plan priorities and staffing needed to deliver
the Consortium’s contract with the Dept of Health. This contract is centred on the
delivery of five key outcomes:
1. Strengthening the infrastructure for the local delivery of physical activity alongside sport.
2. Supporting the strategic planning and delivery of regional and national physical
activity plans by ensuring “Be Active, Be Healthy” is reflected in the sub-regional
and local planning and delivery of physical activity.
3. Supporting the adoption of social marketing tools and methods in promoting physical activity.
4. Targeting of the least active and contributing to the reduction of health inequalities.
5. Supporting the local delivery of regional and national initiatives
