Active and Inspired

Documenting a project encouraging children and young people to become more active

Active and Inspired is project run by the Health Improvement Team of Wakefield Council encouraging children and young people to become more active. Around 25 projects are running in communities across Wakefield District.

We have been commissioned to work with four groups to document the impact of the projects on young people’s physical heath, mental wellbeing and aspirations for the future. The projects we are working with are American Football Pit Valley Saints in South Elmsall, Sea Cadets Castleford, Boxing and yoga at St Georges in Lupset and drama/movement with Stride Theatre at Hall Green.

The project covers two years and is being documented on film and through photography.
