Allerdale SPAA
Allerdale has a rich and varied sporting sector. Many organisations from the public, voluntary and private sector provide opportunities for the community to take part in a wide range of sports, physical activities and informal recreation.
20.5% of the adult population take part in regular sport and active recreation, compared to the national average of 21.0% (Sport England Active People Survey 2006). In support of this activity 5.6% of the Allerdale community gives at least one hour a week volunteering to support sport and physical recreation, above the national figure of 4.7%. In the recent Active People Survey 70.2% of the Allerdale community indicated they were satisfied with the local sports provision.
The Council is currently considering a plan for a new sports stadium and indoor and outdoor leisure facilities in the DerwentValley at Workington, which could provide the opportunity for rationalisation and improvement to existing services of both the Council and other providers.
