Activity Buddy Scheme
By the English Federation of Disability Sport
The Scheme has been developed to assist
clubs in setting up their own volunteer
programme. A toolkit of resources has been created to
inform and train both the club and the
volunteers, reducing the valuable time
spent on administration and money spent
on training. There is also guidance on
where to recruit volunteers from and how
to link in with local disability groups.

BE
CEO Update for
November October
Aug;
July;
June;
6th
June: Sport England's Strategy
and
2012 Legacy
The strategy
commits Sport England to deliver on a series of demanding targets by 2012/13:
§
one million
more people doing more sport
§
a 25% reduction
in the number of 16 year olds who drop out of five key sports
§
improved talent
development systems in at least 25 sports
§
a measurable
increase in people’s satisfaction with their experience of sport – the
first time the organisation has set such a qualitative measure
§
a major
contribution to the delivery of the five hour sports offer for children and
young people.
Sport England will work
closely with the National Governing Bodies of sport (NGBs) to deliver the new
strategy, and will also continue to work in partnership with local authorities
and with County Sports Partnerships delivering specific results. It will reduce
bureaucracy by combining its multiple funding streams into a single pot of
funding for NGBs, and will be consulting on a new, more streamlined method of
funding wider community projects
