Promoting a healthier lifestyle
Medway Council’s Sports Development Team recognises the importance of sport and recreation to the residents of Medway and aims to encourage participation by all parts of the community, either through the direct provision of safe, suitable and good quality services or indirectly by supporting the efforts of other organisations and individuals. By raising the quality of sporting facilities in these ways, the team aims to promote healthier lifestyles for the people of Medway.

A positive contribution to Medway's quality of life

Sport can pay huge dividends in terms of improved health, social inclusion, community safety, realising everyone’s potential, lifelong learning, environmental sustainability and regeneration.
