Join us for this Fellow-led discussion exploring the relevance of sport in addressing key societal challenges through the building of connections and fostering a sense of belonging within communities.
This Fellow-led event comes following an unprecedented and historic summer of sport, marked by successes in the Euros, Olympics, and Paralympics. As we reflect on these achievements, we face an important question: how can the bidding, hosting, and legacy of major games inspire a new generation to improve mental health, physical activity, and well-being of young people and communities particularly those from areas of disadvantage and disaffection?
Join Geoff Thompson MBE FRSA, Founder and Chair of The Youth Charter, an international charity and United Nations NGO, as he shares details of their Community Campus Youth and Community Model and Cultural Framework. Opportunities will also be shared to get involved in the "Legacy Opportunity4All National Call2Action," a significant initiative aimed at ensuring the lasting impact of sport. This innovative approach has the potential to deliver real and sustainable benefits in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, both locally and globally.
Don’t miss the chance to be part of the conversation!
Taking part in RSA in-person events
To participate in the event, you will need to register for a ticket so we can make sure we have an up-to-date list of those who plan on attending. If you wish to register another attendee, this must be done separately using a different email address. This is for capacity purposes. We encourage all attendees that are ill or showing symptoms of illness to stay home and to cancel your Eventbrite ticket if you are no longer able to join the event.
At the RSA, we strive to create inclusive and supportive environments for all Fellows. We recognise that individuals may require different forms of support to fully participate in our events and activities. Therefore, we welcome and encourage Fellows to bring the support they feel is necessary, whether it be a carer, an emotional support animal, or any other form of assistance. We ask that you fill out the accessibility requirements box in your Eventbrite booking form in advance of attending one of our events to ensure that the venues can accommodate such requirements. Our aim is to ensure that everyone feels comfortable and valued, and we are committed to accommodating diverse needs to foster an inclusive community.
