Since the start of the pandemic we have been providing the community with virtual learning and networking sessions. The sport & physically activity sector has been affected by COVID-19 and has certainly changed our ways of working.

Due to the ever changing rules and regulations we wanted a way to keep in contact with the local organisations, groups and communities and learn from each others experiences and keep each other going during these uncertain times.

We have created a brand new series of online networking events, which will focus on different topics to support the needs and help of the sector.

All sessions are monthly and FREE so keep your eyes peeled for the next up and coming session! Book below onto the sessions!

Catch up on session you missed! All sessions are recored, notes are sent to delegates after the session. All notes taken are uploaded to the website and kept for 30 days after the session.

For this virtual learning and networking event, Sport Birmingham discussed the Schools ​Youth Development & Activity Fund.
