The Equality StandardA Framework for Sport

WelcomeTo our Equality Standard for Sport web site. Its purpose is to provide a first stop communication and information service for everyone involved in the pilot programme, which involves over 38 National Sports Governing Bodies (NGB) across the UK all working towards the Standard.

The Standard The first ever equality Standard for sport was launched in November 2004. It is a framework for assisting sports organisations to widen access and reduce inequalities in sport and physical activity from under representative individuals, groups and communities especially women and girls, ethnic minority groups and disabled people. It is based around two broad themes: developing your organisation and developing your services and four levels of achievement: Foundation, Preliminary, Intermediate and Advanced.Click here to find out more about the Standard.

The NGB Pilot Vaga Associates has been commissioned to provide consultancy support to assist 10 UK wide sports to achieve the Standard by 2006 as part of a NGB pilot programme. Our role also includes assessing the impact of the Standard and the different approaches taken to achieving it. Our support services will be available from January 2005.Click here to find out more about the NGB Pilot.

This SiteIs designed to help any organisation that is working towards achieving the Standard or involved in the NGB Pilot. We will ensure it contains relevant information on the Standard and is kept up to date with the latest news and examples of working practice.

The ResourcesProvides a bank of resources for you to tap into.
