Active Norfolk
They are the Active Partnership for Norfolk, one of a network of 43 Active Partnerships across England. County-wide, they work to increase physical activity levels and improve the health and wellbeing of our communities and residents. They believe that physical activity is beneficial to everyone, and that movement improves lives. Also, that everyone should have an equal chance to enjoy the benefits of an active life.
Working with a wide range of local, regional, and national partners, they can increase physical activity and sports participation levels in Norfolk. It’s also important that they focus our efforts on those who can benefit most from a more active lifestyle.
Programmes:
Green Futures: Youth Project- a new initiative funded and designed with the North Norfolk Youth Advisory Board which aims to inspire and empower young people in North Norfolk to take an active role in tackling environmental challenges.
The NNDC Leisure team will be delivering a suite of FREE activities for young people between the ages of 11-19 (or up to 25 with additional needs) which provide hands on learning opportunities with a focus on environment, conservation, climate change & the importance of green spaces. Activities include eco workshops, habitat building, and a chance to ‘get to know’ the local wildlife with our ranger team -including reptiles, minibeasts and birds, among others, plus some fun sessions including axe throwing & caricature drawing.
To be eligible for a free space attendees must live, or be educated in North Norfolk. See our leaflet section for a flyer with full information
