Tackling Inequalities in Leisure Standard

The new “Tackling Inequalities in Leisure Standard” replaced the Inclusive Fitness Initiative (IFI) back in September 2022 and has been co-written with Activity Alliance. The aim is to help leisure operators provide more inclusive and accessible physical activity opportunities for people from a range of inequality groups. The new standard is similar to IFI and covers accessible facilities and services offered.

The Standard can be completed as either a Standalone Assessment (£650 Plus VAT) or as part of a 2-Day Quest Assessment (£1575 Plus VAT) and lasts for 2 years.

Exercise Referral Standard

The new “Exercise Referral Standard” was launched back in September 2022 and aims to provide a set of quality operating standards to help drive improvements and consistency in scheme delivery. It will include a review of the exercise referral scheme policies and procedures in conjunction with an observation of the delivery of the scheme.

The Standard can be completed as either a Standalone Assessment (£650 Plus VAT) or as part of a 2-Day Quest Assessment (£1575 Plus VAT) and lasts for 2 years.
