Following a recent meeting with the ADP,the decision was made to fund the  'activehub' project for a further year which is excellent news.  The ICP were very pleased with the work that has been carried out by the project from both the evidence provided and the feedback received from partner organisations.  Furthermore, it is hoped that the project will secure funding for future years, however, this is determined by the level of finance that the ADP receives itself.  They will, as always, seek other sources of external funding to support the ever expanding and diverse range of activity that the project aims to provide.

The ‘Active Hub’ Diversionary Activity Project, primarily funded by the Aberdeenshire ADP, operates across Aberdeenshire.  This project, managed by the Council’s Sports Development Team, has been running every Friday night at the following venues:

 Stonehaven Leisure Centre every Friday 7 – 10pm
 Inverurie Academy every Friday 7 – 10pm
 Fraserburgh – JIC Building every Friday 6 – 9pm

Active multi-sports ‘Hub’ provides young people aged 10 -16 years, with opportunities to experience sport, via a number of avenues including a variety of sports participation sessions, holiday programmes, volunteering, coaching and elements of programme management.   The project encourages genuine engagement and support for participants through a partnership approach in a sustainable way.

FREE sports and activities include:
Athletics, Badminton, Basketball, Football, Hockey, Rugby, Wii Sport, Arts, Music, Chill Out Zone and more…

Attached is a recent SWOT analysis and promotional posters for all hubs:
