Want to help inspire your local community to get active..?
Coaching
To get more people, more active, more often, it’s essential we support coaches in Slough to enhance their skills and be advocates for sport in the local area. We are dedicated to offering coaches targeted opportunities to improve the quality of delivery across our Active Slough programme.
We work closely with local partners, National Governing Bodies of Sport and Sports Coach UK to develop Slough's coaching workforce, running a number of qualifications, workshops and training opportunities.
We can provide coaching bursaries, enabling you to access a training qualification at little or no cost in return for community hours contributed to the Active Slough programme.
Volunteering
Active Slough are always on the look out for volunteers, activators and leaders. You don’t need to be a sporting superstar or fitness guru, we’re looking for people who are enthusiastic, good communicators and willing to support sessions.
For young volunteers (aged 16-25) we run a recognised volunteering scheme, linked to vInspired which enables young people to gain awards in return for volunteer hours contributed to the Active Slough programme.
As a volunteer with Active Slough you can receive the following:
- free volunteer t-shirt
- free water bottle
- opportunities to access free training opportunities (including first aid, safeguarding & sports coaching qualifications)
- opportunities for paid work.
