Our Impact

At Sport for Confidence, impact is at the heart of everything we do. Our work is grounded in evidence, shaped by collaboration, and driven by a commitment to improving lives through meaningful activity.

Making a Measurable Difference

Our programmes are continuously evaluated to ensure they are effective, inclusive, and responsive to real-world needs. From independent research to in-depth evaluations, our approach combines lived experience with academic insight.

Here you’ll find the growing body of evidence behind our work — including key evaluations, research partnerships, and recognised outcomes.

It also highlights the awards and sector recognition we have received, alongside our contributions to wider conversations through publications and white papers.

Together, these insights demonstrate not just what we do, but the difference it makes.
