Spirit of 2012 is a legacy partner of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games and was awarded £1.3 million by the Scottish Government to get the least active people in Scotland more active and generate learning for the benefit of the rest of Scotland.
In Scotland in 2016, 21% of people were inactive – inactivity is the second biggest cause of death in Scotland, and in 2016 Scotland placed joint last in an international study of physical activity among children. Legacy 2014 supported inactive people within Scotland’s communities to become active.
