Why Sport for Confidence?
Only 61% of adults in England and 59% of adults in Essex do 150 minutes or more of moderate
intensity physical activity per week and certain groups have an even higher prevalence of physical
inactivity, including individuals with disabilities and/or long-term
health conditions.
By tackling physical inactivity, our traditional delivery model is a pioneering preventative programme that addresses
physical inactivity, wellbeing, and independence within a whole
system approach.
To achieve our vision and mission we recognise the importance of looking beyond sport and physical activity. We listen to our participants. They attend Sport for Confidence to feel valued, achieve important personal goals such as making friends, building vocational skills and managing their health – the primary reason is rarely to improve their physical fitness.
We are a ‘no labels’ model which means that we welcome everyone.
We use an evidence-based model to enable us to provide in depth clinical reasoning as to how and why we make decisions.
