Published by: State of Life, Sheffield Hallam University, Manchester Metropolitan University, Sport England

The Background

In 2024, a consortium of partners brought together by social value experts State of Life, in partnership with leading sports economists from the Sport Industry Research Centre (SIRC) at Sheffield Hallam University and the Institute of Sport at Manchester Metropolitan University, produced a new national model of social value for Sport England as part of a multi-year contract.

Year Two Update

This report presents findings from year two of Sport England’s latest study to produce an updated model for the annual social value of community and physical activity. It updates and builds on the research conducted in year one of the project (published in October 2024).
