The extra yard community project cic

---

 The Extra Yard Community Project CIC is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company.

Our purpose is to use performance-level coaching in a community setting to:

• Improve physical health

• Support mental wellbeing

• Build confidence, connection and positive routine

• Remove financial, social and access barriers to participation

All surplus is reinvested into local people, places and programmes for community benefit.

 Our community work is directly supported by The Extra Yard.

The Extra Yard Community Project CIC benefits from:

• The same experienced coaching staff and leadership team.

• Shared systems for bookings, safeguarding, communication and feedback.

• Access to equipment, technology, session plans and coach education developed in high-performance environments.

The CIC is our way of giving back: using a proven, professional setup to make elite-standard support accessible to more people, in more places.

 We provide flexible, mobile and partner-friendly programmes for all ages:

• Indoor: fitness studios, sports halls, colleges, schools, community centres and workplaces.

• Outdoor: pitches, parks, tracks and multi-use games areas.

• At Your Venue: we bring coaches, structure and equipment to your site or setting.

Programmes are tailored around each group and environment — from introductory movement and confidence-building sessions through to progressive athletic development.

 We act as a trusted physical activity and movement partner for:

• NHS providers and Integrated Care Boards

• Public Health teams

• Local authorities

• Schools, colleges and alternative provision

• Charities, CICs and grassroots community organisations

• Housing associations and youth services

• Employability and workplace wellbeing programmes

• Other community projects needing a reliable delivery partner

• International partners seeking a proven community-based fitness model

If you need a safe, outcomes-focused activity provider, we integrate seamlessly with your programme or service.

• Professional: Qualified, insured, DBS-checked coaches with robust safeguarding, risk assessment and health & safety standards.

• Impact-led: Attendance, confidence, wellbeing and activity outcomes can be monitored and reported for partners and funders.
