Active Swindon
The focus of this project is to increase participation in physical activity amongst residents of Swindon, Shrivenham and parts of North Wiltshire.
Sport England’s support and funding has allowed for key members of staff to be employed, including: a co-ordinator, a finance and support officer, a marketing and communications officer, a development officer for vulnerable people, a development officer for workplaces and a development officer responsible for family-based learning. Their task is to roll-out new physical activity programmes, promote health, set up a 'one stop shop website' and develop the Community Sports Network in Swindon.

West Wiltshire District School Sports Partnerships Tag-Rugby Festival
A good practice case for clubs - school links. 32 schools attended district tag-rugby festivals in March 2007, with more than 300 girls and boys attending. Crockerton Primary, a small rural school, won a string of district festivals, including the Wiltshire Youth Games and on top of this, earned the right to play an exhibition match in front of 50,000 fans during half-time of the Powergen Cup Final at Twickenham.
