Gaps and Areas for Concern l Programmes based aroundfamily participation arelacking in the Durham areaand could help address someof barriers to engagement?This is not the case forChester le Street with thework Cestria CommunityHousing and the Foundationof Light have done throughtheir Family LearningProgramme. 870 parents andchildren have taken part infrequent and moderateexercise sessions held inconjuction with local schools.
l Sport and physical activityprogrammes that targetyoung people aged 11+ hasbeen highlighted as a gapacross the patch
l Pathways and exit routes fromshort term programmes needto be better established tosupport continued long termengagement.
l More volunteer support andtraining is needed for localphysical activity programmes.A lack of high quality coachesand volunteers to supportdelivery is also barrier todeveloping and maintainingstrong player pathways andsecuring continuedparticipation.
It is clear that Durham and Chester-le-Street benefits from significantinvestment, and has access to a widerange of excellent facilities, some ofinternational standard. However, thishas not translated into greaterparticipation in sport and physicalactivity, which is disparate acrossdifferent communities. In fact, inmany cases, those communities inreceipt of some of the highest levelsof investment are those with thelowest levels of participation. Movingforward, the need to focus moreeffectively on understanding andworking with specific local barriersand motivators to participation in thefuture is evident. In particular,consultation with partnersdemonstrates that there is aperceived lack of awareness ofopportunities within the localities,which could be addressed throughjoint programming and sharingresources, particularly aroundmarketing and awareness raisingactivity.

Local Demand for Sport and Physical ActivityCurrent participation in sport and physical activity is not consistent acrossthe patch (see Table 1), nor are the area’s demographics. Sport England’smarket segmentation helps us understand the life stages and attitudes ofdifferent population groups and the sporting interventions most likely toengage them. The distribution of these segments in Durham and Chester-le-Street is not even, with pockets of the more affluent segments, Rogerand Joy, and Tim centred to the north east of the Durham area. DurhamCity is dominated by Jamie’s, due to the high student population. Kev’s,Terry’s and Brenda’s are dominant in the less affluent areas aroundBowburn and north and west of Chester-le-Street. Table 1 highlights thesports most likely to engage the various groups.
