This is a research report that includes a partnership collaboration study between Manchester Metropolitan University and five Active Partnerships (AP) in the north of England. The project reviews existing information and literature on COVID-19 around the motivational changes, behaviours and societal challenges facing the sport and physical activity sector.
It takes a ‘deep dive’ into the hidden voices and experiences of organisations and individuals within communities that are specifically low socio-economic status and aim to tease out nuances across, gender, age, ethnicity/faith and social class.
