We are the strategic lead for sport and physical activity across Herefordshire and Worcestershire. An independent charity committed to improving the lives of people across the two counties through the power of physical activity and sport.

We pride ourselves in being part of a forward thinking, national network of Active Partnerships (42 across England).
We have a strong understanding of the needs and issues in our area, with a focus being on inactive people and under-represented groups.

As a Sport England funded system partner, we interpret and localise national government strategies, Sport England’s Uniting the Movement framework, and county public health, local authority, ICB strategies and national sporting governing bodies, turning policy into meaningful local action.

CEOs Introduction

Dear Candidate

Thank you for taking the time to find out more about this role.

Active Herefordshire and Worcestershire exists to make it easier for everyone across our two counties to be active. That means focusing our energy on the people and places where the barriers are greatest — children and young people from lower-income households, older adults, people living with long term health conditions, and communities where inactivity is highest.

We do not do this work on our own. We work alongside local authorities, the NHS, Integrated Care Board, Public Health, voluntary organisations and community networks to create the conditions where more people can move more, more often. We also work with national partners especially Sport England aligning closely to the Uniting the Movement Strategy.

This is an exciting moment for Active Herefordshire and Worcestershire. We are shortly launching a new organisational strategy, building on the strong foundations we have already laid and sets a clear direction for the years ahead. The relationships we have built across Herefordshire and Worcestershire, with statutory partners, the voluntary and community sector and local providers, give us a genuinely strong platform to work from.

To get there, we need the right people around us. We are a small, motivated and supportive team who care about the work and about each other. We invest in our people, we learn together and we try to make Active Herefordshire and Worcestershire a great place to work.
We are keen to attract people with diverse backgrounds, perspectives and experiences — both from outside the organisation and by developing the talent we already have.

If you are looking for a role where you can make a difference and improve people’s lives, where you will be part of a team that genuinely supports one another, and where you can help shape an organisation at an important point in its journey — this could be the right opportunity for you.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely

Steve Brewster
