We are the Active Partnership for Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent, one of 43 Active Partnerships across England. 

We’re passionate about making physical activity a natural part of everyday life, especially for those who face the most challenges. Our systems and environments often prevent people from being active, particularly in underserved communities where poverty, disability, and social exclusion are everyday realities. These barriers keep many from experiencing the incredible mental, physical, and social benefits that come from staying active.

We aim to break down barriers and provide opportunities for the people most affected by systemic inequality; people living in poverty, those with physical disabilities, mental health challenges, or who are at risk of social exclusion. Through collaboration, data-driven action, and a deep commitment to inclusion, we’re working toward a world where physical activity is a given, not a privilege.

We are focusing our efforts where they are needed most: the communities that are too often unheard and excluded. In places like Stoke-on-Trent, where poverty and health disparities are deeply felt, we are working to ensure that physical activity becomes accessible to everyone, regardless of income, background, or circumstance.

We believe in a future where health systems, schools, community organisations, and local governments work together to integrate physical activity into daily life. This is about more than just exercise — it’s about creating environments where everyone can live healthier, more connected lives.
