Discuss the challenges of providing public services with people who have innovated successfully.

So there I was, in the back garden of a young person’s mental health secure home, being outdone at press-ups by a badly overweight 16 year old. Joe had been diagnosed with Bi-Polar and sectioned under the Mental Health Act after being considered a danger to the public, and his mum had asked me to try and motivate him to pull himself together.I knew Joe as someone with a temper, but definitely capable of controlling it with the right motivation, andif there was one thing that could have Joe get out of the mental health home, it was the chance to play rugby again for his beloved Shoreditch Sharks.So I helped Joe with a fitness regime, and with the prospect of playing for the Sharks again, a few weeks later Joe was given the all clear and he left.
Provide an overview of our business – 40 secs (40)Hi, I’m Rich (this is me), and that’s Pete, and we’re founders of SportInspired and pioneers of the Community Games. Joe was one of many success stories I experienced after starting and then running for 5 years a kids rugby club in Hackney. I became passionate about the difference local community sport can make. So in 2007 we ran our first CG to introduce local kids to local sports In 2008 we re-invented the Community Games as a volunteering service for business
Provide an overview of our business – 20 secs (20)We’re a social enterprise that builds healthier and happier communitiesThrough Community Games we bring together sport and business.These help kids and adults connect to their local community, and find local sports they enjoy
Explain our business model (60 secs)- fun, local, multi-sport festivals where hundreds of local school children are introduced to and compete in at least 8 different sports (including at least one disability sport);- the sports are coached by local sports clubs and providers who take part to recruit new members and increase their profile;- the Games are delivered in partnership by local young leaders and business volunteers; and they are free for all participants, because we provide them as a service to our business partners - volunteering, team-building or brand-building - 2 models: disabled and non-disabled
