Chair’s Comments
It gives me great pleasure to introduce this
Annual Impact Report. As chair of Active
Suffolk, I am delighted to be able to look
back on such a difficult and challenging year
and reflect on the successes, achievements,
and resilience of the organisation,
particularly the support it has provided for
local communities and everyone working in
the Sport & Physical Activity sector.
Active Suffolk continues to provide the lead
strategic co-ordination role for the sector
across the County and works with the
broadest range of partners to improve health
and well-being across Suffolk by inspiring
everyone to be more active. Active Suffolk
continues to value the strong and positive
relationships it has developed with its key
partners over many years, whilst at the same
time seeking to maximise the opportunities
that links with new partners can bring.
I would like to thank the many individuals and
organisations that have supported both Active
Suffolk and its shared vision during the last 12
months.
This Annual Impact Report for 2020/21
sets out just some of the many collective
achievements during the year and I look
forward to another successful year and to
working with all our partners to realise our
collective ambitions as we recover from the
impact of the Covid19 Pandemic.
