We can move
Co-ordinated by Active Gloucestershire, we can move is a social movement designed to get more people active in the county.
About us
Being active should be normal and easy. We look at barriers to being active and use campaigns to encourage people to try something new. We ask people to spot things that need to change and highlight their achievements so that they can inspire and be a champion to others.
Our impact
Our work develops by learning from what has and hasn’t worked before. We use independent research, and commission our own. We listen to people and organisations in the county. Our aim is to have a real and measurable impact on the lives of people in Gloucestershire.
Our team
Let’s talk! We work with many groups and organisations across Gloucestershire, from schools to networks that support older adults. We also do valuable work helping find funding and assist people and organisaations to change where they live, so that more people can be active.
Happy Easter from Active Gloucestershire!🐣![]()

Reflecting on Our Latest Gloucestershire Active Ageing Network✨![]()
![]()
Last week’s Gloucestershire’s Active Ageing Network brought together an incredible mix of partners, professionals, and passionate individuals, all united by a shared belief that older people in Gloucestershire deserve every opportunity to live active, healthy, and fulfilling lives.![]()
![]()
Our network exists to connect the dots across the county to share ideas, spark new partnerships, and shine a light on the brilliant work already happening to support older adults. We know our population is ageing but we also know that not everyone has equal access to the opportunities that help us age well. Factors like where we live, our finances, education, or gender all play a role in shaping how actively and how joyfully we age. Through this network, we’re committed to tackling those inequalities and creating a Gloucestershire where everyone can Live Longer Better.![]()
![]()
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, contributed, shared, listened, questioned, and inspired. Your passion and collaboration are what make this network so special.![]()
![]()
Whether you’re an activity provider, part of the NHS, working in local VCSE organisations, or simply someone who cares deeply about improving later‑life wellbeing, we’d love for you to join us at future networks!![]()
![]()
Let’s keep building a county where older adults are supported, valued, and empowered to stay active for longer💙![]()
