SG-20

Workforce development

Yorkshire Sport Foundation, Street Games and Sported have come together to support our networks across Yorkshire by bringing together training resources accessible for workforce and practice.

Following insight from a collaborative event at the end of 2023, we’ve put together a resource pack based on the workforce needs highlighted to us by the people and organisations who attended.

We identified three main areas.

  • Supporting disability in sport and physical activity sessions.
  • LGBQT+ inclusive practice
  • Mental Health awareness

We want  to support organisation to access training to develop staff, build confidence and knowledge to be put into practice.

As well as the resources within this document, Sport England have a dedicated platform with free, convenient and practical resources to help you to grow and become more sustainable and successful.

Buddle provides free learning and support resources, to inspire and strengthen clubs and community organisations offering sport and physical activity. Sharing the latest information, training, and tools to help clubs and organisations overcome challenges and make the most of the opportunities available to them.

StreetGames deliver a wide range of free training courses and webinars to their network of community organisations who are delivering physical activity to young people in underserved communities.

Sported is here to help local groups unleash its power to transform the lives of young people, and to back the local heroes who make it happen. Become a sported member and get access to expert knowledge, guides and workshops to advice and support you and your organisation.

We hope you find the resources in this pack useful.
