On behalf of Stable Events, welcome to the physical activity facilities forum 2023 at De Vere Cotswold Water Park.

We have a new plan for sport and physical activity, courtesy of the new strategy from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, Get Active: A strategy for the future of sport and physical activity. In it, the government sets out its ambitions for tackling the high levels of inactivity and ensuring the sport and physical activity sector is accessible, inclusive and sustainable. The report confirms what most of us working in our industry already know: we have adapt and innovate to meet the evolving needs of users, we have to update and improve our existing facilities in line with local needs, we have to continue to upskill our workforce and we have to evidence our success. If not, we will fail to move the dial on inactivity and impact the people who need our services most. The physical activity facilities forum is a wonderful opportunity for you to network with professionals working across all aspects of the sports and physical activity sector, from design and build through to fit-out, services and programming – in short, the very people who can help the government meet its aims for driving participation.

This directory provides details of all of the companies and professionals attending the forum and I hope it will be a useful guide both during and after the event.

I wish you a very successful physical activity facilities forum 2023.

Lisa Forsyth, Director, Max Associates (Holdings) Ltd Title: “The Changing Landscape of the Management of Council-Owned Leisure Centres.”

SYNOPSIS: In March this year, HMRC announced a significant change to the VAT treatment of Local Authority Leisure Services. The revision means services are classified as non-business supplies for VAT purposes. This means local authorities pay no VAT on their income, as well as reclaiming all the VAT they incur on the related costs (revenue and capital) unconditionally. Lisa is no VAT expert but considers this revision in the light of the political landscape where a number of councils are choosing to in-source their leisure centres and Sport England’s ‘Future of public Sector’ report in 2022, which aligns leisure services to an active wellbeing service.

How will these and other factors impact how leisure services are managed in the future?

BIOGRAPHY: Lisa has been working in the local authority leisure industry for 25 years; working as a consultant for the previous 15 years. Lisa’s career in the industry started at operational level managing local authority leisure centres. She continued to gain experience by heading up a business development department of one of the leading local authority leisure contractors in the UK. She joined Max Associates in 2008, is now a Director and is a member and passed board member (Treasurer) of the Chartered Institute of Management Sport & Physical Activity (CIMSPA).

David Minton, Director, Leisure DB Title: “Active Ageing.”

SYNOPSIS: While the NHS have a financial incentive to keep people independent and out of hospital, the fitness industry doesn’t, why? Fitness is missing out on a billion-pound business opportunity that could mean doubling in size?

BIOGRAPHY: With over 30 years’ experience in the health and fitness industry, David Minton, founder and director of Leisure DB, holds a unique insight and perspective on the developments in the health and fitness sector. David is widely sought as mentor, advisor and consultant to a broad collection of worldwide health and fitness organisations.

The pilot sought out to evaluate the impact of a whole system approach, placing physical activity at its core and measured the impact on improving the lives of people living with disabilities and/or long-term health conditions. This session will discuss the delivery and outcomes of the pilot independently evaluated by The University of Essex and State of Life which evidenced elevated physical activity levels amongst participants in line with the rest of the population and delivered social value of £58.71 for every £1 invested.

LA Architects Ltd Andrew Archibald - Associate The Studio, Brighton Road, Housedean, Lewes East Sussex BN7 3JW T: 01273 878440 E: Andrew.archibald@la-architects.co.uk W: www.la-architects.co.uk

LA architects is a specialist public projects architectural practice, delivering leisure, arts and civic projects. Employing a flexible and dynamic approach to the design of both new build and refurbishment projects, we provide humane, lively and highly successful buildings, which add value to the communities they serve. We do not believe that the buildings and designs of the last twenty years have delivered to the real needs of the public and it is time for that to change. Through our work and our R and D programmes, working with bodies within and outside the UK we are changing the nature of public facilities. Overseeing large public contracts and small individual projects alike we provide long term, sustainable solutions that enhance all aspects of physical, mental and social health and wellbeing. We understand and deliver architecture that is more than the look of the building. Each project is specifically designed for the needs of the users and the wider environment and does not follow the standard approach and technical guidance. We rethink the box. Since the practice was formed in 1992, we have designed on over 30 leisure centre projects, including PFI, PPP and DBOM, on sites across the length and breadth of the UK. This specialisation and experience has built an strong expertise within the practice and our team and across many sectors and markets. Our ability to deliver on time and to strict budgets has been built over many years’ experience of collaborative working on complex building projects and with diverse teams, developing consistent methods of working, which are under continual review and improvement.
