Developing on the Find Your Active campaign, #MoveWithUs is focused on enhancing children and young people’s activity levels across Essex, providing them with the motivation, opportunity and capability to get moving.

Over 1 in 2 children and young people across Essex do not take part in the recommended 60 minutes of activity a day, and 25% of young people report zero positive attitudes towards physical activity and sport (Active Lives 2023). Move With Us is here to change things. We want you to get involved and help us inspire, motivate and encourage young people to find what’s right for them, supporting them to try new activities, whether that be traditional or more informal movement. In our eyes, all movement is good movement.
