West Lothian Council recognises the important role that clubs play in providing local communities with opportunities to participate in sport. The Active Assured Quality Mark helps to support club development within West Lothian and recognises clubs that provide safe, effective, active and child friendly environments.

The accreditation process is very simple and the Active Schools & Community Sport service supports clubs by providing resources, training, toolkits and advice. Clubs who already hold recognised National Governing Body Accreditation are matched directly into the West Lothian Council scheme.
