Not at all. We also work with Active Partnerships, councils, holiday clubs, leisure centres and the wider community. If you have an idea for how an athlete could support your school or community, or if you’d like to discuss a bespoke package, please do get in touch — we’d love to chat!
For our Bronze Package, the most popular option is an inspirational assembly, allowing the athlete to speak to the whole school or a specific year group. The theme of the assembly could include the athlete’s personal story or they could link their story to a theme of your choice, such as the school’s values or focus for the term.
This is usually then followed by an activity workshop. This could be a couple of sessions split into year groups and can include a variety of activities, or specific interactive parts tailored to your theme of the day.
For Full day visits, this is usually adding more workshops to include the whole school, or with a later start in the morning to end with a talk that parents can attend.
Expenses are the travel costs for the athlete to get to and from your venue. This is usually just mileage at 45p per mile, however depending on format and timings of the day, and where the athlete is based, it may require accommodation. To keep costs down, you can find athletes that are within your region.
We will always provide the exact cost of expenses upfront, before you confirm, so you have full transparency.
