Over 60 partners from Buckinghamshire & Milton Keynes attended our Partner Forum in October 2023.

A vibrant ice breaker from Shay Fenlon was followed by Mark Ormerod, as part of the national working group, providing an overview of the new government strategy for the future of sport and activity, 

Mark highlighted the important elements and how they may impact the movement, physical activity and leisure and sport sector in Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes.You can view the slides below.

Michelle Howden, CIMPSPA (Chartered Institute for Management of Sport and Physical Activity) Skills Hub Manager gave a short summary of the Local Skills Improvement Plan and how organisations can become involved.
