Active LDN 2024, the capital’s top conference devoted to shaping the future of physical activity and sport, is back with a bang.
This year, it’s all about “Unlocking Spaces for a Healthier London,” and trust me, if you’re in the business of making Londoners healthier through sport, fitness, and public spaces, this is the event you can’t afford to miss.
On Tuesday, November 19th, at the iconic Emirates Stadium, this gathering—powered by heavy hitters like Decathlon, Sid Lee, Play Innovation, and Fit-Tech—promises to bring over 300 professionals together for a day packed with insights, innovative ideas, and some good old-fashioned networking.
You’ll find everyone from public health pros to teachers, local council people, and sports facility managers—all the people making things happen for London’s health.
This isn’t just another day of talks; it’s about teaming up and walking away with real ideas that can make London a healthier, more active place.
What’s on the Docket?
- Kicking off with some high-profile keynote speakers, attendees can expect thought-provoking presentations that get straight to the heart of how to maximise public spaces for physical activity.
- No fluff, just real solutions for real-world challenges. But it’s not just about listening—there are plenty of breakout sessions that dive deep into crucial topics. Here’s a taste of what’s on the agenda:
- Using Digital Solutions: Learn how tech is transforming London’s public spaces into inclusive, active zones for people of all ages and abilities.
- Opening the Gates: Ever wondered how schools can play a bigger role in fighting inactivity and inequality? This session explores the critical role educational institutions have in promoting community health.
- Local Authority Public Health: Discover how local authorities can take the lead in making space for physical activity and how they can energize these areas to get London moving.
Creating Safe, Active Communities: This isn’t just about big projects; small interventions like mapping routes can have a major impact on building active communities.
London Sport’s CEO Emily Robinson comments: “In a city facing challenges such as child inactivity, rising living costs, obesity, mental health concerns, loneliness, and climate change, your presence at Active LDN matters.
By digging into how sport and physical activity can tackle these challenges, we’ve got the chance to make a real difference in the lives of Londoners.
