The Active Sussex Network brings together member organisations and local partners that deliver sport and physical activity across Sussex.
The Active Sussex Network brings together member organisations and local partners that deliver sport and physical activity across Sussex including: local authorities, leisure trusts, national governing bodies of sport, health agencies, educational & community organisations.
Meeting twice a year, partners receive strategic policy briefings, attend themed workshops and discussions, and have the opportunity to network with colleagues from across the county.
The Active Sussex Network took place on Tuesday, March 7 at The American Express Community Stadium, Brighton.
During the event, delegates heard about our plans for 2023-28, and delved into the Year 1 implementation as we kick-started the next phase in our mission to enhance the health and wellbeing of everyone across Sussex through physical activity and movement.
Delegates from across Sussex gained an understanding of the purpose, vision and outcomes of the strategy, learned how it was relevant to them and their work, and explored the opportunities to implement change.
The Active Sussex Conference took place on Tuesday, September 20 2022 and, for the first time since pre-pandemic, it was live. Key players from across the county came together to learn, share and plan for a more physically active county.
