Throughout 2010, Nottingham Forest in the City will be featuring at many events and functions, promoting the Forest Factor Project and supporting local community agencies. Since April 2009, The Forest Factor has achieved the following milestones:
• Over 50hrs of events delivery
• Over 192 hours of football and physical activity delivery
• Over 75 Nottingham City children engaged through project delivery

2010 Curriculum Programme:
Since March 2009 , Nottingham Forest in the City coaches have been delivering fun games and physical activities in local primary schools during PE curriculum time, hoping to engage an interest in sport at grass roots level. The delivery has consisted of 2 x 1hr sessions to classes at each school and they have covered a wide range of activities.

Quote:
"I just wanted to let you know that the two coaches you sent were fantastic, they engaged with the children really well even when they weren't asked to. Both the pupils and staff had a brilliant training session and were very grateful to Forest for allowing them to spend some time with us.
If you ever find that you need to get rid of any of your staff for a few hours, would you send them our way please as partnership working is very important to us as a school and the tips/training and inspiration that is passed on to our children is priceless"

Thanks again.

Out of school hours programme:
Nottingham Forest in the City has identified local schools and leisure centres to provide additional football and physical activity provision for those wanting to get involved with more sport. The leisure centres recognised are geographically located close to the primary schools, hoping to make it easier for open access and reduce common participation barriers.
