Become Leaders in Creating Social Impact through Sport

We provide tailored support for national governing bodies / federations, drawing on the world-class, interdisciplinary expertise of our team to help you improve performance, nurture mental wellbeing, and build a more compassionate culture of sport!
A package of support could range from a short series of workshops to a multi-year partnership, including a combination of:
How We Work: Our practitioners will consult with you to understand your needs and challenges before co-designing a bespoke project with you. Our ultimate goal is to help you develop a sustainable way forwards, so that our work together grows in strength long after you work with us. Why Is This Critical? Given the current crises around duty of care and athlete welfare, and the broader mental health crisis in the country, there has never been a more important time to invest in this holistic approach to sport, and demonstrate how performance and a caring culture of sport are not mutually exclusive. Next Steps For a conversation about how we can work together, please contact Sam Parfitt at [email protected] |
Listen to our podcast interview with UK Sport Chair, Dame Katherine Grainger, where we discussed our partnership with British Fencing, and how to walk-the-walk when it comes to "Medals & More".

"TAP is an organisation that at its core is built on a fundamental understanding of the pressures faced by athletes. The senior leadership team bring their own unique experiences of being athletes and have used these to create an authentic offer that truly connects with young people. We brought TAP in to work on different aspects of that with all levels of our GB team - from youngsters age 13 to experienced senior athletes - and the results have been impressive. I have no hesitation in recommending TAP." - Georgina Usher, British Fencing CEO. FIE Women and Fencing Council Member.

UK Sport: Powered by PurposeThe first athlete activism programme of its kind, we were commissioned by UK Sport to design and deliver a bespoke 6-month course of development for 20 world-class funded athletes, to help them use their platform and voice to create social impact across 3 areas: wellbeing, inclusion, and sustainability.
Athletes engaged in 10 workshops, individual mentoring, online resources, and a buddy system, in order to build their personal social action plan. They presented their journeys of transformation and social impact at a showcase event in London. Final report coming soon! |

Basketball ScotlandWe are thrilled to be working with Basketball Scotland, an organisation that passionately believes in everyone's right to a joyful experience of sport. We are delivering three projects: 1) training their new social impact officers to deliver impact through a "School of Basketball" initiative designed to promote wellbeing and life skills of young people at risk of poor academic attainment and reduce the gap between Scotland's highest and lowest areas of deprivation; 2) training their new "Wellbeing Ambassadors" to nurture a caring environment within basketball clubs across Scotland; and 3) designing a mental wellbeing short course for basketball coaches and training tutors to deliver the course. We have also begun supporting their referees - a crucial group within any sporting ecosystem.
