We are a community benefit society and co-operative committed to tackling inequality and promoting community wellbeing. Through co-creation and innovation help to increase social, physical and civic activity levels in the communities in which we work.   

The Active Wellbeing Society (TAWS) are working to develop healthy, happy communities living active and connected lives.

Our vision is for a society where people have the autonomy, capacity, resources and skills to become the architects of their own destiny; where our individual wellbeing is recognised as being bound up in our collective responsibility to and dependency on each other; and where all of us feel empowered as agents of social change to make a difference – whether at an individual level or more widely.

By working collaboratively with communities we aim to bring about sustainable change on an social, environmental and economic level; to do the social knitting required to create stronger and more resilient communities and to support communities to identify, mitigate and remove the barriers that prevent them from living active and connected lives.

The Society was developed out of the successful Wellbeing Service set up by Birmingham City Council in June 2015.

The Active Wellbeing Society Limited is a charitable community benefit society (registered No. 7595)
