Healthier people live happier lives. Those at the Why Sports conference want to turn this knowledge into concrete action. As Mike Farrar from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukactive.com\/\">Ukactive<\/a> articulated at the conference opening, we must align the physical activity sector with the health sector.&nbsp; When scaled, case studies and pilots by the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportengland.org\/\">Sport England<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ealing.gov.uk\/site\/\">Ealing Council <\/a>can create widespread, real-life outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Social prescribing links together groups, services, people and activities within communities to address the social, emotional and practical influencers on health and wellbeing. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lancashire.gov.uk\/roads-parking-and-travel\/active-travel\/\">Active Travel Lancashire<\/a> have taken an approach that prioritises activity in communities by encouraging local cycling and walking.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Keep offering support. In a couple of years time, the data will highlight the benefits of these ambitious schemes. <\/p>\n<cite><em>Declan O\u2019Regan, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.activepartnerships.org\/news-tags\/active-travel\">Active Travel<\/a>.<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Without the likes of Gemma Hyde from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tcpa.org.uk\/\">Town and Country Planning Association<\/a>, such schemes could not be scaled. Gemma defined the concept of 20-minute neighbourhoods, why they benefit people&#8217;s health and, importantly, how can we make them happen. Using architectural design to remove barriers to activity is a significant undertaking that sparks much debate. The benefits of such a setup reach beyond health. If done in an inclusive, viable manner, 20-minute neighbourhoods can greatly benefit the environment and economy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Conference encouraged partnerships of all kinds; between charities, community groups, councils and the NHS. Such partnerships provide direction and outcomes that can inform government policy and implementation. For the second time, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.raleigh.co.uk\/gb\/en\/\">Raleigh Bikes<\/a> was a Why Sports sponsor. <a href=\"https:\/\/theaws.co.uk\/activities\/big-birmingham-bikes\/\">Birmingham<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/letsgosouthall.org.uk\/lets-ride-southall\/\">Southall\u2019s<\/a> free bike schemes evidence the power of activity once social and economic barriers are removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TeamKinetic Panel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/blog-posts-14-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/blog-posts-14-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/blog-posts-14-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/blog-posts-14-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/blog-posts-14-1-900x506.png 900w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/blog-posts-14-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Volunteering isn&#8217;t just about giving; it&#8217;s about gaining too! Alongside some brilliant keynotes, the TeamKinetic panel inspired some fantastic discussion. TeamKinetic\u2019s Chris Martin was joined by Leila Bendrimia from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gll.org\/b2b\">GLL<\/a>, Bryony Hudson from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.activelancashire.org.uk\/\">Active Lancashire<\/a> and Lee Malkin from <a href=\"https:\/\/everybody.org.uk\/\">Everybody Health and Leisure<\/a>. The panel spoke on what volunteering means to their organisations and the difference that effective volunteer engagement software has made. The connections between leisure trusts through the <a href=\"https:\/\/communityleisureuk.org\/work\/active-kindness\/\">Active Kindness Programme<\/a> showcase the power of volunteering in the sports, health and leisure sectors. Here are some snippets from the panel discussion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Ask your volunteers why they are there, this is crucial for volunteer retention.<\/p>\n<cite>Leila, GLL.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>When reporting back to our board about how volunteering is going, with TeamKinetic we can dissect data at the click of a button. <\/p>\n<cite>Lee, Everybody Health and Leisure.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Volunteering brings all the good vibes and best out of people, but having TeamKinetic lets us translate this into something tangible you can justify to your trustees or board. <\/p>\n<cite>Bryony, Active Lancashire.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Roundup&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Why Sports &nbsp;\u2018Improving Health and Increasing Activity Conference\u2019 built upon our existing awareness of the benefits of activity.
