Active Row Our flagship programme Active Row launched in October 2017, supported by our funding partners Sport England and Tideway. Our mission is to get 8,000 more young people active across the capital, through indoor rowing clubs, competitions and access to rowing in the Summer term. In March 2018, we launched a new local partnership with Quintain to develop the Programme in Schools in Brent. Check out our video to celebrate the end of Year 1. Through Active Row we are working with 70 Secondary State Schools; 52 Partner schools and 18 Competition Schools from East to West London over the next four years. Our Coaches focus on engaging young people who are less likely to participate in physical activity, such as those from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds, girls and individuals with special educational needs or a disability. We focus our delivery on 12 London Priority Boroughs based on the London Poverty Profile (see the specific schools we work with in each borough). As part of Active Row, we are working with 11 Special Educational Needs Schools and our Partner Tideway funds the programme for 14 Schools along the River Thames. Through Active Row, we are working to achieve key shared objectives in the Sport England strategy ‘Towards an Active Nation’.
