This forthcoming event at the Millennium City Building marks the launch of the Sport for Change Cities exhibition in Wolverhampton. Organised by the University of Wolverhampton and ConnectSport CIC, it will showcase various organisations using sport to create positive change. The exhibition run offers visitors an opportunity to explore the displays and meet the people behind these initiatives. Entry is free to attend for those wishing to view the celebration of local impact stories.
Join us for the launch, explore the exhibition and celebrate the people and organisations using sport to make a difference.
The University of Wolverhampton, in partnership with ConnectSport CIC, is proud to host the first Sport for Change Cities exhibition, with Wolverhampton selected as the pilot city for this exciting new initiative.
The exhibition, which is also supported by the Wolves Foundation and Active Black Country, brings together powerful images and short films created by University of Wolverhampton School of Creative Industry students and local content creators, showcasing projects, programmes and organisations using sport and physical activity to create positive change across the city.
The stories featured demonstrate how sport can help to:
Improve health and wellbeing
Tackle inequality and exclusion
Build confidence and create opportunities for young people
Reduce crime and anti-social behaviour
Strengthen communities and social connections
Support economic growth and local opportunity
Contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals
Come and meet the people behind the projects, discover the stories captured by the next generation of local storytellers, and explore how sport can be a powerful catalyst for change — in Wolverhampton and beyond.
Join us for the launch, explore the exhibition and celebrate the people and organisations using sport to make a difference.
