A new initiative in Sunderland is taking advantage of the building excitement of the 2012 Olympic Games in London. The city is determined to feel involved with the huge occasion, and are providing a scheme called ‘Active Sunderland’, which aims to give everyone in the city a chance to try out new activities, many of which are extreme sports. Everyone in the city, regardless of age or ability, can get involved.
Active Sunderland is organising a number of sporting festivals, projects and activities in the hope of inspiring young people to become more involved in sport and possibly become future Olympic athletes.
From next month there will be chances to take part in everything from extreme sports like rock climbing and kayaking, to taster sessions from sports clubs and master classes from the city’s elite coaches and athletes.
In 2012, Active Sunderland Olympic Month will run from July, 27 – September, 9 to coincide with the games.
