The Outdoor Partnership will work with clubs, schools, individuals, and specialists to increase opportunities for people on the North Yorkshire coast to achieve their potential through outdoor activities, active participation, volunteering, training, and education.
We had a great day @scarboroughstreetrocks for #InternationalWomensDay. It was so great to see so many women come along and climb, regular climbers, first-timers and those getting back into it after a while off. Such a supportive atmosphere!!
Street Rocks runs weekly women`s social sessions on Monday evenings from 7 til 9 and on Wednesday mornings from 9:30 til 11; standard entry applies.

Unfortunately the British Surf Kayak Championship has been postponed due to lack of surf. Keep an eye out for dates in the future!

Wow, what a day we had at #scarboroughextreme. To have outdoor activities represented on such a large scale was fantastic! Thanks to @thescarbfair for having us involved.
More importantly, thank you to all the clubs and providers who came along to support on the day. The chat from people who came along was extremely positive (pun intended) and were already asking questions about next year.
Another big thanks to Rob Pickering from @britishcycling for supporting the event in the way you did and for bringing Scarborough`s own @@miller_templebmx to show off their skills in front of the crowds.
The idea behind getting involved in this was to help show people what Scarborough has to offer in terms of fringe sports and activities.

It was a busy week last week, here is a snippet of what we were up to
Monday we had a meeting about an exciting project in Whitby, hopefully, we can get this over the line and ready for people to enjoy next summer.
On Tuesday we were at the university here in Scarborough alongside colleagues from the North York Moors National Park, talking to new students about all the Outdoor Activity Clubs we work with and how they can get involved.
Wednesday we went to the @northyorkmoors National Park Management plan forum, to talk about how we can work together on helping people living along our coast enjoy the national park.
Thursday we were looking at taster sessions with community groups to see what they would like to take up as a hobby and helping out colleagues from @thescarbfair with the Extreme Festival on the 5th of October.

Last night we went and helped Scarborough and District Canoe Club run their pilot @aquapaddleuk event. Great work by everyone involved, from making bouys to testing the course!
An aqua paddle is very similar to a well-known weekly running event, but on the water. Keep an eye out for the public events to be announced.

Sam Allum is our North Yorkshire Coast Outdoor Activities Development Officer. He is based within the North Yorkshire Sport Team & covers the North Yorkshire coast area.

Scarborough Extreme is an extreme sports festival designed to showcase to both residents and visitors the diverse array of sports in Scarborough that challenge participants to their limits.
Our Outdoor Activity Development Officer (OADO) collaborates with North Yorkshire Council to ensure that the perspectives and needs of both community sports clubs and local groups are effectively represented. The 2024 festival attracted over 10,000 visitors and featured a variety of activities, including mountain biking lessons at William Street Car Park, women’s surf improvement lessons at Cayton Bay, and an open day at The Street Rocks.
A significant part of the day revolves around our goal to inspire residents to explore new sports through demonstrations featuring local talent, such as Scarborough’s own Team GB athlete, Miller Temple. This effort is further supported by National Governing Bodies (NGBs) and community sports clubs on the day. In the years to come, we aim to increase the presence of more NGBs and interactive activities throughout the Saturday of the festival, along with community-driven events like skate jams and mountain bike races on Sunday.
For additional information and details on how to participate, please visit https://scarboroughfair.uk/extreme/. We are in the process of organising the 2025 festival, and we have plenty of exciting plans in store!
Sam is the Ramblers Wellbeing Walks co-ordinator for North Yorkshire and supports the various RWW groups across the county. We have also set up a few new walks in Scarborough, targeting those who would like to be more active in the more deprived areas of Eastfield and Barrowcliffe. We are now working with local community groups to help them feed into these walking groups by running targeted shorter walks through North Yorkshire Council’s Community Activator in the area.
We have also been able to link groups to the North York Moors National Park. Taking advantage of their travel fund, we were able to take the AgeUK North Yorkshire Coast & Moors over to Danby for a walk around the area and a bit of tea and cake in their visitor centre. This trip is still talked about in the walking group and we are hoping to make it a regular trip.
We successfully gained funding through the Bruce Wake Charitable Trust and Sport England to enhance the climbing provision along the North Yorkshire coast. We now have staff from East Barnby OEC, The Street Rocks and GuyllieGoat climbing trained through the Climbing for All course. This course covered everything from information gathering to using that information to make sessions accessible for disabled people and hoisting those who need that level of support. Alongside the training, we have a centrally stored set of equipment that the 3 organisations can use to give support for those who are physically disabled.
Sam is a member of the Scarborough Town Board which is an advisory board to help the council spend £20 million worth of levelling up funding from the UK government. The role of the board is to make sure that sport and physical activity is represented in the towns long-term development plans and to ‘provide opportunities for communities to become more active.’
Through this work and North Yorkshire sport, we were commissioned to consult the local outdoor activity clubs on what they think of Scarborough and what would help them grow as a club. Sam went out to clubs and joined in on some of their regular sessions and spoke with local community anchors to hear their views. This consultation went down very well with the board and is now informing projects moving forward.
