Summer of sport activities 2026

Young people in Dumfries and Galloway can enjoy free sports and activity events this summer, with activities running across local communities.

Choose to Lead, Leadership Academy, Lockerbie

The aim of the programme is to develop the skills of young people aged S2 and over in the 2025/26 academic year. This can enhance their opportunities in further education and employment and, in turn, can help increase levels of physical activity and sport in schools and communities across our area.
