Creating Opportunities For All
Who we are
ActiveWestminster, a community sport and physical activity network partnership facilitated by the Sport, Leisure and Active Communities team of Westminster Council, is dedicated to enable and activate all communities and reduce health inequalities.
Our Vision
A city where everyone is active and has a healthier and happier life.
Move For Life!
We aim to help and empower individuals, groups and communities to lead active, healthy and happy lives.
We are working towards activating the lives, neighbourhoods and the City of Westminster through Physical Activity, Leisure and Sport. But that’s not where it stops. We want to create more opportunities for more people to learn new skills, connect with others, feel part of the community and have fun. Most importantly we want to make sure these opportunities are accessible to all, reaching people where they are.
ActiveWestminster Partnership
We run an extremely vibrant ActiveWestminster partnership where we work closely with a large number of public, private and voluntary sector organisations to promote a wide variety of attractive and accessible opportunities, which encourage people to take part in physical activity, leisure and sport at any and every level, regardless of background, age or ability.
