About Us

Move Together Blackpool is all about helping our town move more, feel better, and connect in new ways. We work alongside communities, schools, and healthcare partners to create more opportunities for everyone to move a little each day — in ways that feel meaningful and fun.

Reimagining how Blackpool moves — together

Working With Our Town to Create a Healthier, Happier Blackpool

Move Together Blackpool works to create more opportunities for people to move a little more each day. We celebrate people’s strengths, listen to their experiences, and collaborate on ideas that make our town a better place to live, work and play. From dancing under the mirror ball to walking the dog in Stanley Park, movement takes many forms — and together, we’re building a Blackpool where everyone can enjoy it.

Talking Blackpool up!

We celebrate the strengths, stories, and spirit of our town — championing what makes Blackpool special and building pride in our shared progress.
Community-led

We listen first, act together, and ensure that the voices and experiences of local people shape every step of our work.
Be brave and try new things

We’re not afraid to experiment, take risks, and learn as we go — even when we don’t have all the answers.
Build trusted relationships

Strong, honest relationships sit at the heart of everything we do, helping us collaborate meaningfully and support each other’s influence.

We recognise that everyone’s journey looks different and meet people with understanding, empathy, and patience.
