This report outlines the progress made between April and October 2025 towards the
Sport England Place Expansion Development Award in Gateshead and South Tyneside, which aims to help communities to make lasting positive change in tackling inequalities in physical activity.
This report shares the key insights gained from engaging with local organisations and
communities around physical activity and inactivity during this period. The report also
reflects on the challenges that have emerged from the first 12 months of the Award
phase and suggests several actions to undertake during the remaining six months of the award.
