Living Sport seeks a new Chairperson

Living Sport is looking for a new Chairperson to lead and support the implementation of its Strategy and Business Plan - to realise the potential of sport and physical activity to contribute to a wide range of local strategic and community agendas while also developing the business of the charity away from reliance upon a single grant funder.
