Join Mo’s Mission: Let’s get moving together!

Four-time Olympic Champion Sir Mo Farah CBE, National School Sport Champion for the Youth Sport Trust charity, has launched Mo’s Mission to empower more children in the UK to be physically active. He wants all children and young people to get 60 minutes a day of PE, sport and play.

Sir Mo Farah said;

"Every young person should grow-up happy, healthy and with the opportunity to achieve their full potential. Ensuring they are physically active for 60-minutes a day is an important part of making this happen.?

"Too few children in the UK are exercising regularly and it’s having a detrimental impact on their health and wellbeing. In my new role as National School Sport Champion, it is my mission to get as many young people moving on a daily basis as possible. The power of sport helped me find my passion as a young person, so I’m firmly encouraging kids across the UK to get involved in ‘60 minutes a day - of PE, sport and play.’"

Join the Youth Sport Trust and make your pledge today!

You can make your pledge by filling out the form HERE and downloading your 60 minutes a day active tracker to keep track of your daily activity and encourage others to do the same!

Don’t forget to share your progress by tagging @YouthSportTrust on social media and use the hashtag #MosMission

?By joining Mo's Mission, you’ll help the Youth Sport Trust ensure every child can access the enormous benefits that come from being active!

SEND Shooting Stars

Disney inspired Shooting Stars SEND is a programme that has been designed for schools to inspire young people with SEND to engage in their active minutes through football. The programme provides a suite of resource cards that include ready-made session plans which include fun, inclusive activities for pupils encouraging the development of their fundamental movement skills. The resource cards have been created in consultation with the Youth Sport Trust's Lead Inclusion Schools with the aim of specifically engaging more young people with SEND in physical activity and football.
