Stakeholders lament lack of delivery plans in strategyUgo Monye among those on new government taskforce
A new government strategy for sport has been met with scepticism by some stakeholders, questioning the ability of the Conservatives to deliver on their “unapologetically ambitious” scheme to transform activity levels by 2030.
“Get Active” is the first sports strategy to be published by the government since 2015 and has been long awaited. Its scope is broad and includes ambitions to make elite sport more sustainable and improve integrity and safety for athletes. Its central focus, however, is on increasing physical activity among regular Britons with targets of 2.5 million more adults and 1 million more children hitting the recommended amount of activity by 2030.
