Research and Insight Hub

Our research expertise is focussed on improving the wellbeing of children and young people through sport and physical activity.

What we do

• Evaluating our work – our evidence based approach means that we comprehensively explore the impact of our work
• Bespoke evaluations of programmes / projects / initiatives – commission us to use our research expertise to help you understand your impact
• Issue led research and insight – we offer bespoke research, analysis and insight services and expertise to organisations with an interest in the wider wellbeing and life chances of children and young people, including the education, PE and school sport sector, the wider community sport sector, the activism and volunteering sector and those involved in developing life skills, employability and opportunities for young people.

We deliver bespoke high-quality research and insight to positively influence policy and practice affecting the wellbeing of children and young people.

Our research and insight offer includes mixed methods research approaches, with both quantitative and qualitative research, supported by highly-skilled analysis to help uncover new insights, trends and impact.

The Youth Sport Trust is inviting proposals via an open tender from researchers to undertake an evaluation of our Girls Active programme.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced research organisation to work with the YST to evaluate the impact of our flagship Girls Active programme, which supports schools to understand what motivates girls to take part in physical activity, enabling teachers to work with girls – through consultation and leadership – to make the necessary changes to their PE, sport and physical activity provision.
