The evidence base  

How should sport be represented?
Sport England has been for some years been building a comprehensive database and developing a suite of tools to assist  planners and others to secure a better understanding of the provision of, and needs for, sport and recreation opportunities. The range of information and resources will be invaluable in helping to build the evidence base that must underpin policy development and implementation. This includes the application and refinement of the sustainability appraisal of policies and plans which needs to make particular use of available evidence.
