Every young person deserves the chance to experience the benefits of sport.
We're proud to be working with @AccessSport and @ManCityCouncil on a new three-year partnership to help make sport more accessible and inclusive for children and young people across Manchester.
This partnership is about more than getting young people active. It's about building confidence, creating friendships, developing skills and making sure more children feel welcome and included in sport.
By working with local clubs and communities, we can help break down barriers and create opportunities that make a lasting difference.
We're excited to see what we can achieve together!
