Reflecting to maximise your impact from the Learning Series with Sue Blight, First Ascent

In this session, Sue shares how to maximise your return from the time you have invested in the Learning Series.  Sue helps you to practice reflection techniques to consider what you have learned, and link that learning to your wider goals at home or at work. This was an interactive and thought-provoking session, so maybe have a pen and paper ready & put on your “purposeful hat”!

Levelling the Playing Field

Find out what needs to happen to shape the future of sport in the UK. Ladi Ajayi, the Head of Sport at AKD Solutions, shares the findings from the 2021 UK wide #TellYourStory Lived Experience research project, which looked at the impact of race and racism in sport.  

Seize this opportunity to hear what the research is telling us and start exploring how individually, organisationally, and as a collective sector, we must lead change to make sport and physical activity more inclusive, from the boardroom to grassroots community clubs.
