Mission: Active Future is brought to you by Eureka! The Museum for Children with funding from Sport England and the Big Lottery Fund.

Eureka! is the UK’s first and foremost museum for children and has developed its creative expertise in play-based, hands-on learning over the last 13 years. An educational charity based in Halifax, Eureka! has inspired over four million visitors in learning about themselves and the world around them.

The Big Lottery Fund is the largest funding body of the voluntary and community sectors, playing a key role in tackling social exclusion and improving the quality of life in communities.  Sport England Yorkshire invests Lottery and Exchequer funds into sport. Its aim is to encourage people of all ages to start, stay and succeed in sport. For more information visit www.sportengland.org.

They make grants to ensure that these stepping stones are more readily available to those who may not otherwise have the opportunity to develop their full potential.
