No Child Left Behind: the team are getting ready!!!

With only 2 weeks until a team of CIMSPA members, partners and staff take on an epic challenge tackling the terrible inequalities around children and young people being able to access sport and physical activity, the team are well into their preparation.

Collectively they will be aiming to carry the weight of children up the equivalent ascent of the national 3 peaks over 2 days (23/24th June) which coincides with National School Sport week. Half of the team will be taking on the mighty challenge in the Peak District and the other half in the Lake District.

Here’s just a few pictures from the training that’s been undertaken by the team who are spread across the UK.
