The Sport England Volunteer Action Research Project aimed to increase the number and diversity of people who take part in volunteering or social action through sport with a specific focus on young females and young people from BAME communities, two groups historically underrepresented when it comes to volunteering, particularly in disadvantaged communities.
With a focus on learning, the project aimed to understand more closely what it is that encourages young people in these target groups to initially take part in volunteering and what it is that motivates them to keep on coming back.
