Get Out, Get Active Amber Valley

30/03/2026

As we come to the end of our Get Out Get Active journey in Amber Valley we want to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has been part of this community.

Whether you joined us for a walk, tried a new activity, volunteered your time, or simply cheered us on, you helped create something genuinely special within our community.

Thank you to everyone who has joined us in any of our activities or spoke to us at the community drop ins.

Although this chapter is closing, the spirit of GOGA lives on in every friendship formed, every step taken, and every bit of confidence gained.

We are proud of what we have achieved, and have absolutely loved hearing everyone’s stories when we have visited our brilliant sessions in the local community.

Thank you for being part of the GOGA Amber Valley family. It’s been a privilege to move with you.

Thank you all ❤️

Some huge news...Get Out Get Active has been shortlisted for an award at the highly respected Sports Industry Awards.

The nomination for Wellness in Sport award is a significant moment for the programme and a proud recognition of the impact GOGA continues to make in communities across the country. By creating inclusive opportunities for disabled and non-disabled people to be active together, GOGA is helping to tackle long-standing inequalities in sport and physical activity.

Everyone at Activity Alliance is incredibly proud of this achievement. Helen Derby Strategic Lead of Programmes, said:
"We are incredibly proud to see Get Out Get Active recognised on such a respected national stage. Everyone who has been a part of the GOGA journey knows how incredible it is, and it's fantastic that the impact is being recognised in this way.

"The nomination reflects the passion of our partners and the power of inclusive community activity to bring people together, break down barriers and create lasting change."

I'm pleased to announce that thanks to the hard work of our leaders and co-leaders, we have raised a whopping £714 for Derby Mountain Rescue Team. This wouldn't have been possible without funding from GOGA and Jog Derbyshire and of course the generous donations from our runners and walkers. Thank you so much for joining us, buying medals and popping money into our collection.

We'll be back on the 5th January for more running and no more reindeer...

Have a Merry Christmas and a happy new year from all the team at AJC 💙🧡💙
