A New Sport Strategy for the Square Mile
The new strategy for the Square Mile sets out an ambitious blueprint for sport investment and promotion over the next seven years and beyond.
The vision is for the City of London to become a global city of sport by investing in sport facilities, activating our public spaces, celebrating the impact of sport, attracting high quality sport events and promoting community sport.
