Leap Our aim is to improve lives using physical activity and sport across Bucks & Milton Keynes, Leap is

Here at Leap our aim is to enable 50,000 people to get more active for life across Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes by 2017. Whether that’s through taking part, coaching, leading or volunteering in sport and activity we want to help make it happen. Working with key stakeholders, including Sport England, we embrace innovative and creative ways to help people be more active and are committed to making a difference to the health, wellbeing and success of the county. Leap, formerly Bucks Sport, is the brand name of the Bucks & MK Sport and Activity Partnership, a not for profit organisation, and one of 49 County Sports Partnerships nation-wide, that form a key element of the delivery system for sport across England. Locally, Buckinghamshire has an important role to play in the legacy from the London 2012 games as the home of the Paralympics. You can find out more information about this legacy by visiting the Bucks Legacy website. More information on our work is available on this website or meet the team and learn more about our work areas.

🚲 Cycle to School Week is here!

We're celebrating the fantastic work of Greenleys Junior School, who have transformed opportunities for children to travel actively through the MK Place Expansion Partnership (MK PEP) Test & Learn programme.

By bringing together local partners including Milton Keynes City Council, Cycle Saviours, Living Streets and The Bikeability Trust, the project tackled one of the biggest barriers to cycling: access to safe, suitable bikes.

The results speak for themselves:
βœ… Around 75% of Year 5 pupils signed up for Bikeability training
βœ… Learn to Ride sessions introduced for Year 4 pupils
βœ… Active travel rates increased from 71.6% to more than 90%
βœ… Recognition as a top-performing school in the WOW Travel Tracker programme

This success shows what's possible when schools, communities and partners come together to test new approaches, learn what works and create lasting change for children and young people.

As we celebrate , we're proud to showcase how collaboration through the MK PEP Test & Learn programme is helping more children develop the confidence, skills and opportunity to choose active travel.

It doesn't feel that long ago that we were bringing partners together in Milton Keynes for a day of connection, learning and collaboration.

From sharing ideas and experiences to making new connections and exploring opportunities to work together, our June Partner Event reminded us just how valuable it is to come together as a network.

The conversations didn't stop when the event ended, and we're excited to continue them at our next Partner Event.

This time, we'll be back in Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire, bringing partners together once again to learn, share and collaborate.

Getting more children and young people active starts with understanding what they need. πŸ’‘

This year, we worked closely with schools and partners across Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes to create opportunities for young people who are less likely to take part in sport and physical activity, including those experiencing low confidence, low wellbeing, or additional barriers to participation.

By listening to the needs of schools and collaborating with local delivery partners and the network of School Games Organisers, we were able to provide targeted experiences that helped young people build confidence, try new activities and discover ways to be active that worked for them.

Our latest blog reflects on the impact, learning and partnerships that helped make it possible.

We're excited to share that the Milton Keynes Place Expansion Partnership (MK PEP) has secured further investment from Sport England, allowing this important work to continue across Milton Keynes. πŸ“’ πŸŽ‰

Over the last year, partners, organisations and residents have come together to better understand the challenges that prevent people from being active and explore how we can create lasting change.

This next phase is an opportunity to build on those relationships, strengthen community voices, and work together to create healthier, more connected places where everyone has the chance to be active. ⭐

Today is , a celebration of the power of movement and the positive impact it has on our health, wellbeing and communities. This year's theme, , highlights that everyone has a role to play in creating a more active nation, regardless of age, background or ability.

To mark the day, members of the leap team Anya and Abbi Mckane attended the Meet & Move FREE Physical Activity Taster Event, part of the Staying Active, Staying Connected programme delivered by Active in the Community - Buckinghamshire

The event brought together more than 100 local people aged 50+ and showcased a fantastic range of opportunities to get moving, connect with others and try something new πŸ‘. What we thought stood out most was the enthusiasm from participants, alongside the wide range of mobility levels and physical abilities represented throughout the day πŸŽ‰.

Staying active in later life is vital for maintaining independence, supporting physical and mental wellbeing, building confidence and reducing social isolation. Events like Meet & Move demonstrate how inclusive, welcoming physical activity opportunities can help people stay healthy, connected and active for longer.

πŸ’™ We're proud to support and champion the work of our partners, who are helping create these opportunities across Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes. Together, we're working towards a future where everyone can enjoy the benefits of being active.

We've all felt it this summer. From heatwaves to record-breaking temperatures, hot weather is becoming a more regular part of life in the UK.

Hot weather doesn't just affect comfort. It can change when, where and how people choose to be active, while creating additional barriers for those who are already least likely to participate in physical activity.

Our latest article explores what the data tells us about extreme heat in Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes, and why climate resilience should be part of the conversation around physical activity and health.

For physical activity understanding the impact of extreme heat is becoming increasingly important to support healthier, more active communities.
