Sport England have invested £450,000 of National Lottery money to fund a free ‘Digital Marketing Hub’ which will help individuals, clubs and organisations use digital marketing tools and techniques to encourage more people to play sport and be physically active.

The new resource, delivered by the Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity (CIMSPA), is powered by the Digital Marketing Institute. The hub is tailored to small businesses, self-employed professionals and volunteers at frontline clubs and groups, as well as marketing and communications professionals at larger organisations.

It contains a wealth of resources, including expert-led video lessons, toolkits, templates, webinars and walkthroughs. All of the content is on-demand, meaning participants can curate their own training and scheduling to focus on the areas most valuable to them. The hub also contains a toolkit which will help partners to promote it to their audiences.
