The Active Essex Foundation is a registered charity that has been set up to increase the use of physical activity and sport to engage and support the most inactive communities and tackle the inequalities that exist across Greater Essex.
We use sport and physical activity to:
Inspire communities to become more active, therefore leading healthier, happier, more positive lives
Raise aspirations, confidence, skills and knowledge, improving employability and enabling individuals to reach full potential
Strengthen, unify and improve community cohesion, breaking down barriers and addressing inequalities
Improve physical and mental health wellbeing
Impact on the reduction of crime and anti-social behaviour
