About us

As movement matters...

At Active Surrey, we believe that movement matters. It matters to our health, our schools, our communities and our environments.

As the Active Partnership for Surrey, we work collaboratively to help everyone in Surrey realise the benefits of a more active way of life. We focus on influencing systems, removing barriers and creating opportunities to get people moving more.

Our history and vision

Established in 1999 by Sport England and local partners, Active Surrey is a not for profit organisation, hosted by Surrey County Council. We continue to be commissioned by Sport England and local partners to increase participation rates for the people and places of Surrey where the need is greatest.

Our vision is that all of us in Surrey embrace the habit of moving more, to improve our own wellbeing and to thrive as an active community.

Like every organisation, coronavirus has meant that we've had to change how and what we've delivered in the last year. Read more about our most recent full year in our latest Impact Report, covering the period up to August 2020. (Also available in plain text.)

A more active county

Evidence shows that active people live more enriched lives and are healthier, happier and more prosperous. The 2015-20 Surrey Physical Activity Strategy set out our collective vision for our county. We are currently formalising the new Physical Activity Strategy to take us to 2030.
