Community Sport Hubs

As part of ANGUSalive’s commitment to developing sport and physical activity throughout Angus, we have adopted the sport scotland Community Sport Hubs initiative.

Commitment to Sport

The initiative is aimed at supporting local sports clubs to help increase the number of people participating in sport in our local communities. Community Sport Hubs can be based in local places such as club pavilions; sport centres, community centres, the natural environment and/or schools and hope to bring local people together to provide a home for local clubs and sport organisations. They will also provide information, support and advice on a wide range of sports and physical activities to make it easier for local people to get involved and engaged in more active and healthier lifestyles.
