Welcome to TAKEPART 2012 June 23 – July 8 “In this Olympic year of sport TAKEPART, Brighton & Hove’s Festival of sport and physical activity is providing you with the opportunity to take part in activities whatever your age, interest or experience. Over the two weeks there are hundreds of different sports on offer across the city, many of which are free.

TAKEPART is now in its 5th year and I am delighted to once again support such a fantastic community sports festival. Events like TAKEPART help to build on the momentum and enthusiasm generated by Britain’s year of prestigious sporting events and work with the public at a local level. There is a natural synergy with my ‘Workplace Well Being’ programmes and initiatives of this kind which encourage adults and children of all ages to keep fit and healthy.
Ben Quilter - Double World and European Champion Judo player representing Great Britain at the Paralympics.
I’m proud to be supporting TAKEPART once again in this important 2012 year of sport. I’ve been involved since 2008 through Brighton Judo Club and I’m looking forward to coming down to the launch event in Preston Park.
Sophia Warner – Great Britain Paralympic Athlete My family and I had a great time last year! It is an ideal way to try out every sporting activity imaginable and not just for the kids. In such a poignant year for sport, this event is all about inclusion and giving every person in the community an opportunity to find their sport or something that they enjoy.
