Get Active in Gateshead

Regular activity can make you feel better, physically and mentally. It's also good for the environment and your local community.

Our friendly teams will work with you to understand how you're feeling and how we can help you take the first steps towards a more active lifestyle.

Get involved

All of our teams aim to provide free help to residents to get active.

Active Travel Gateshead

Our Active Travel team offers organised short walks and cycling sessions that are open to all residents, no referral needed.
