What is Active Schools?
Active Schools aims to provide more and higher quality
opportunities for children to participate in school sport and to
increase capacity through the recruitment of volunteers who
deliver the activity sessions.
Who do Active Schools work with?
The Active Schools Network works together with organisations and individuals; including volunteers,
students, young leaders, PE staff and Sports Development officers, local sports clubs and Community Sport
Hubs to provide a wide range of opportunities connected to physical education, school sport and club
sport. Active Schools work to ensure that young people are given a voice within schools to develop the
opportunities which they want to take part in.
What has Active Schools in South Ayrshire achieved?
In 2013/14 Active Schools recorded over 93,000 participant sessions in 39 different sports and activities, with
82% of these being delivered by our network of over 500 volunteers including senior pupils, students,
teachers, parents and club coaches.
Active Schools also assists with the transition from school sport into club and community sport by working
closely with local sports clubs, Community Sports Hubs and National Governing Bodies of sport to highlight
the opportunities that exist in the local community and encourage children and young people to get
involved. This integrated way of working creates and develops pathways into sport which, in turn,
encourages longer term participation.
Get Involved in Active Schools.
To discuss how to increase sport and physical activity opportunities within your school, or to volunteer with
Active Schools please contact us on 01292 294191 or email us at active.schools@south-ayrshire.gov.uk

AYRSHIRE SPORTSABILITY
The passport from grassroots to gold medals for all ….. Together we will make it happen.
Ayrshire Sportsability was created to promote the education and welfare of people with
physical, sensory or learning disabilities through sport.
The Charity was set up in 2001 when it was discovered that people with disabilities did
not have the same opportunities as others to take part in physical activity and sport. Over
200 primary and secondary pupils took part in the first ‘Come and Try’ day. The popularity
of our flagship event has continued to grow every year with the 2014 event attracting
over 600 pupils.
In addition to our main event our programme for 2015 includes:
• Continuation of our Grants Award programme to give financial support to
talented individuals or Clubs, competing in Local or National Competitions.
• Working with existing clubs in the community to organise a range of sports
festivals for children and adults.
The Charity’s aims are:
• To promote, co-ordinate and develop the participation of people with a disability
in Ayrshire and Arran in sports and physical activities.
• To develop sustainable sporting pathways towards excellence.
• To raise the profile of sport for people with a disability in Ayrshire and Arran.
• To organise sporting events, festivals and competitions to advance our aims.
Members of the Charity include representatives from East Ayrshire Council, NHS Ayrshire
and Arran, North Ayrshire Council, KA Leisure, Scottish Disability Sport, South Ayrshire
Council and Sportscotland If you are interested in disability sport and would like to find
out more about becoming a member please contact us.
You can help to promote and support the Ayrshire Sportsability annual event and help
us achieve our plans for the future by:
• Providing sponsorship;
• Fund raising events – individuals can plan their own fundraising projects. Let us
know and we support your efforts;
• Volunteering to help at our events and /or future club events;
• Letting us know of any people with a disability who would like to be involved in
our events;
• Attending our Annual Charity Ball or other social events.
