Community sport is such a vital part of our society. On this course you will learn how to effectively deliver community sports events, projects and initiatives on your own or with other organisations.

We will teach you how you can engage community leaders, schools and other organisations to start programmes of fitness improvement and make a difference to physical and mental wellbeing in your local area.
