Objectives and activities
Summary of the purposes of the charity set out in its governing document
For the public benefit, the promotion of physical and mental health of people throughout England, through the provision of information, signposting, education and opportunities to participate in physical activity.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts
Our mission is to create healthy communities by enabling people to improve their wellbeing through exercise. The main schemes which support that mission are:
a) Move Mates - this project pairs volunteers walking buddies with people who don't have the confidence to get out of their own home. We give people the support that they need to improve their physical health through walking whilst offering the mental health benefits of having regular company. This service operates in York, however we are looking to expand into the Durham area in 2021-2022. b) Move Map - we continue to maintain a free-to-access map which allows you to see the locations of outdoor exercise equipment and provide free access to example workouts in these locations via our website. We launched a brand new and improved Move Map in April, showing outdoor gyms, trim trails, workout challenge and walking routes.
The trustees consider that they have complied with their duties to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.
