StrathActive is one of the University’s active health programmes delivered in partnership between the Sports Union, Strathclyde Sport and Strath Union.
StrathActive is an excellent way to be active, meet new friends, take a break from work and studying whilst improving your physical and mental well-being. Our programme offers a variety of free sport and physical activity opportunities, the best part is that you can take part when it suits you!
No equipment? No problem! Come along in comfortable sports wear and we will provide the rest.

In addition, by purchasing a StrathActive membership you will join the StrathActive community and will be kept up to date with any future StrathActive news and events.
Most sessions take place weekly in Strathclyde Sport, the University’s £31m sport, health and fitness centre located at the heart of campus.
The programme runs term-time and will be running 18th September to 3rd December 2023, and 15th January to 31st March 2024.
