Active Lancashire is in a period of exciting development, as we start to continue to delivery on our 10 year Strategy; collaboratively leading and facilitating active lifestyles with our passionate network of delivery partners.
Active Lancashire has nationally recognised expertise and success in leading, developing and delivering innovative and ground breaking activities against our core themes of health and addressing inequalities. We work in collaboration with like-minded independent organisations looking to broaden their contribution to partnerships and meet wider social outcomes. We are well placed to benefit from the opportunities that will emerge through national strategy developments and local initiatives with key health, economic and local government partners. Our aim here is to be a leader of development for the wider sector and to champion new models of delivery and investment in effective partnerships that deliver targeted and sustainable impact, particularly to underrepresented groups.
As the leadership body for Sport and Active lifestyles in Lancashire, we want to ensure that we practice good governance (in line with UK Sport guidelines), supported by a balanced set of skills and expertise that underpin the development of the business and enable us to achieve our visionary expectations.
We're looking for someone with a strong personal connection to sport, physical activity or movement, and who can bring lived experience to help us better connect with under-represented communities, including disabled people, LGBT+ communities, and those who are neurodiverse.
If you're passionate about making physical activity more inclusive across Lancashire, we'd love to hear from you. Application is by a CV and covering letter, however if you would like us to consider your application another way, please do reach out to us
