History

A timeline of events that shaped Active Fusion

We have dedicated over 20 years to supporting children and young people. From humble beginnings, we have stayed true to our mission and have fought for the importance of physical education and activity in young lives across South Yorkshire. We want to keep making history and we will continue to make the case for physical and mental wellbeing for all children and young people.
