Young people living in disadvantaged areas are being supported to enjoy healthier and more active lifestyles through the work of StreetGames and its network of community organisations.
The charity has developed a long-standing partnership with hundreds of these organisations across England and Wales - which it calls locally trusted organisations (LTOs) – that help it to deliver its programme of activities and events.
