Partner Event: Power Up Partnerships

We were delighted to welcome partners from across Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes to our February 2026 Partner Event: Power Up Partnership – Uniting the Movement. The day opened with reflections on our shared purpose to inspire, educate, build connections and enable action before moving into a lively icebreaker and “Power Up” networking to spark new relationships. Together, we explored Sport England’s evolving strategy, heard powerful place-based case studies from healthy school neighbourhoods to outdoor learning projects, driving real change for the communities. The event was rich with learning, honest reflections and examples of what’s possible when partners unite behind shared goals.  

You can explore all presentations, case studies and resources from the day below.
