Sponsored Post | Get your family active with Youth Sport Trust

David Parker May 23, 2025

Learn how small moves can make a big difference with the Youth Sport Trust

National School Sports Week is back from 16–22 June 2025, and this year we’re celebrating 30 years of helping children be Always Active.

We know life is busy. But being active every day isn’t about perfection — it’s about small, joyful moments that add up. Whether it’s a five-minute dance-off before dinner or a walk to the park after school, it all counts towards the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity.

That’s why the Youth Sport Trust is inviting families across the UK to sign up and take part in their annual celebration of play and sport. It’s free to join and packed with quick, fun ideas to help your family move more — together.

And here’s the bonus — when you sign up, you’ll be in with a chance to WIN a £250 Sports Direct voucher to kit your family out for a summer full of activity.

Don’t miss Sports Star Friday on 20 June: it’s like World Book Day… but for sport! Encourage your school to sign up and get the whole family involved by dressing up as your favourite sports hero and sharing your outfit on social, it’s a fun way to celebrate movement and the people who inspire us. #YSTSportsStarFriday #NSSW2025

Make movement a part of your family’s story this summer. Sign up, get active, and let’s create lifelong memories — one joyful moment at a time.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
