Change the Game

Change the Game-Southwick is a Football Foundation and Sport England 5-year funded project, to encourage residents to become more active and involved in their local community. We are a consortium of Sunderland City Council, Foundation of Light, Everyone Active, Leisure United, Durham FA and RISE NE.
We will work with residents of Southwick to understand what activities and sports you would like to see, working with already established community partners and getting you up and active. Activities may include walking programmes, beginner paced activity (seated exercise), walking football, soccercise and many others as the project develops. The activities will support inclusion and positive mental health for the community.
