SPHW Herefordshire Profile

Herefordshire Profile Insight to enable sport and physical activity to improve the health and wellbeing of the people of Herefordshire

Herefordshire County Profile Sports Partnership Herefordshire and Worcestershire (SPHW) is the strategic lead for Sport and Physical Activity across Herefordshire and Worcestershire. Our purpose is to create a more active and healthier Herefordshire and Worcestershire by enabling a thriving, sustainable environment of physical activity and sport.

We are a not-for-profit organisation and part of a network of Active Partnerships across England. We work with the eight local authorities, the two public health teams, Sport England, the University of Worcester and other key organisations.

This profile highlights key information about the county of Herefordshire. It focusses on local needs where we know that sport and physical activity can have a positive impact, as well as the local resources that are available to help address these needs.

SPHW will work with partners to use this information to identify local opportunities and priorities. We encourage use of this information to inform and strengthen funding bids, and are keen to support any organisation looking to use sport and physical activity to improve the lives of the people across Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

If you would like more information on SPHW, and how we can work with you to develop sport and physical activity, please contact us:
