Improving health & Wellbeing

Department of Health research shows that people living in disadvantaged communities need support to reach the levels of physical activity required to stay healthy. Doorstep Sport improves health and community life by supporting not only individuals, but entire neighbourhoods to become fitter, healthier and better organised.

Doorstep Sport enables more young people to be active and stay active. Many Doorstep Sport projects provide health advice to their participants.
