We are live this morning at the University of Ulster hosting the 2019 Sport for Social Good Conference.
There is a very strong line up of speakers and a room filled with people who are central to the idea of using sport and sponsorship as a force for social and behavioural change.
Part of the Conference is the publication of our second annual Sport for Social Good Report, in partnership with Allianz.

It highlights a number of projects and ideas from Sport for Business members including Allianz, Vodafone, Bank of Ireland, Guinness, Athletics Ireland, Laya Healthcare, the National Lottery and more.
A number of those will be part of this morning’s event and we will carry a full report from Ulster University on Friday morning.
