Idea 8: Showcasing the spaces to be active on our doorsteps

We can capitalise on new behaviours and new awareness of local spaces to be active caused by the pandemic e.g. increased usage and appreciation of local parks and green/blue spaces.

The idea is to create and promote more usable spaces to be active for communities. This would be locally driven but could be given the profile and energy of a national scheme focused on making use of space and inclusivity/accessibility e.g. #SpaceForEveryone.

Sport England could work with local partners to support community-led processes, provide guidance and learnings on better wayfinding and improved information, and share good-practice processes and tools (e.g. technology that enables community co-design and case studies of transferable ideas).
