Our work

The Active Young People Team is part of Cardiff Metropolitan University’s sport development department (Met Community). We are dedicated to support Cardiff’s Young People to become healthier, get active and move more.

We develop local, inclusive and safe sporting and physical activity opportunities in partnership with, facilities, schools, organisations and National Governing Bodies.

We capture our impact through written & video case studies, learning logs, spotlights. Please see examples of work below.

Bronze Young Ambassador Leadership Conference 2025

The Young Ambassadors programme is all about empowering young people across Cardiff to be the voice for PE and school sport in their schools and communities!

A youth leadership movement, YA develops future leaders through sport, physical activity, and play.

It inspires young people to lead, mentor, and advocate for a healthier, more active Wales by creating opportunities that build confidence, skills, and a sense of belonging.
