Sports charity StreetGames, which provides sports opportunities for young people in disadvantaged communities across the UK, is leading a consortium of 15 employers to develop a new community sport apprenticeship as part of the government’s apprenticeship trailblazer programme.
The “community health and sport activator apprenticeship”, which will be developed over the next nine months, is intended to equip apprentices with the skills they need to successfully engage with young people for positive social change.
