Thank you to everyone who completed the Active Lives Survey Children and Young People between September 2024 and July 2025. Your responses provide valuable insight to inform both the national picture and what support is needed locally. @ActiveDerbys

Last Month was the first ever Derbyshire Forest Games for young people aged 7-10, many of which may not usually get the chance to be active outdoors. The day was full of activities and an opportunity to spend time outdoors. makingourmove.org.uk/news/first-eve… #derbyshireschoolgames

The Derbyshire and Notts Secondary School Conference – Creating positive physical activity experiences for all - is underway. Fantastic to have Emily Campbell as our keynote speaker this morning @Brownskinjessie #MakingOurMove

A huge thank you to everyone involved in making today's #GirlsActive #SchoolGames event happen, including all of our fantastic ambassadors for supporting the girls in shaping the event, and for supporting them on the day

Today's #GirlsActive #SchoolGames also aims to support girls to build their resilience and have the confidence to try new things. Well done to everyone who has taken part today 👏

Before today's #GirlsActive #SchoolGames event our ambassadors heard from the #GirlsActive Leaders about some of the things that stop them from being active. Today's activities have been designed to address some of those barriers, such as body confidence

Today's #GirlsActive #SchoolGames is a chance for girls to try something new and find ways to move more that work for them

So much fun at today's #GirlsActive #SchoolGames event. The day has been shaped by the #GirlsActive Leaders who have brought along a group of girls from each of their schools to take part in a wide range of activities including inflatables to build fun and friendship
