We are one of 42 Active Partnerships that help create the conditions for every single person to be active. Each Active Partnership understands local people, barriers and opportunities. We know how to make change happen, to open up better physical health, mental health and quality of life.

We also help to deliver the following events for Children and Young People in Dorset:

Dorset School Games

The Dorset School Games is a series of events, activities and competitions delivered through the Dorset School Games Organisers and Active Dorset with the vision of continuing to make a clear and meaningful difference to the lives of even more children and young people.

They inspire young people to be physically active for life through positive experiences of activity and competition, creating opportunities and experiences.

Dorset Leadership Academy

The Dorset Leadership Academy programme for 2022-23 consists of a wide variety of leadership pathways for children in Key Stage 1 to young people in Key Stage 5.

The programme offers training and deployment opportunities to almost 2000 young people across the county each year, and provides support for schools to promote suitable leadership, coaching and volunteering pathways for all young people.
