Active Villages

Devon Active Villages is a countywide programme co-ordinated by Active Devon and delivered by a network of local partners. It seeks to support rural communities to develop long-term sports opportunities which enable people of all ages to experience the fun of sport and build a life-long love of being active and healthy.

The programme aims to increase sports participation in Devon's rural communities by supporting village based opportunities. It is funded by Devon County Council and Sport England Lottery funding and will work in over 150 parishes with between 500 and 2000 people.
