activity across the borough.

"As part of these awards this year, we have recognised some of the amazing individuals, teams
and clubs who have worked to make sure that taking part in a sport is open to everyone in our
community.

"We want to promote a healthier and more inclusive community in Surrey Heath, and sport is
