See the scheduleDublin Sportsfest, Dublin City Sport & Wellbeing Partnership’s flagship annual event celebrating sport and physical activity in our city took place from 23 – 30 September during European Week of Sport 2023.
Now in its sixth year, Sportfest is one of the most important events in the DCSWP calendar as it shines a light on the enormously positive impact Dublin City Council’s Sport & Recreation services has on our communities. The over-arching message of Dublin City Sport & Wellbeing Partnership is that sport is for everyone regardless of age, gender, background or ability and with over 60 activities on offer across the week in clubs, DCC sports & leisure facilities, outdoor places and spaces there really was something to inspire us all.
Events like Sportsfest are made possible by our participants and the testimonials we hear from Sportsfest 2023 show just how significant sport is in enriching and enhancing our lives and building healthy, happy and connected communities. We also want to acknowledge our wonderful partners ,both internal and external, and thank them for the role they play, not just in major events like Sportsfest, but in the ongoing delivery of DCSWP programmes.
The fundamental goal of Dublin City Sport and Wellbeing Partnership is to provide opportunities for everyone in our communities to partake in sport and physical activity regardless of age, ability or background, through our dedicated programmes, services and facilities.
Change For Life is made possible every year thanks to Heathy Ireland and the many wonderful partnerships DCSWP has fostered with groups and organisations in our communities. However, the success of the programme would not be realised without the spirit of our brave participants. It takes courage to make changes in our lives and for many the programme has sparked life-long changes to their health & wellbeing.
