About Us

FMG began life with a single objective in mind – to get people moving, help them to lead healthier lives and support communities around the country.

We were established in July 2010, during a time of economic uncertainty, to help public, private and third sector organisations to better plan, protect and deliver sport and activity in the communities they serve.

It’s a guiding principle we have pursued relentlessly ever since, ensuring communities continue to have access to the places and spaces they need to be active, whether through playing sport, engaging in physical activity, or using inclusive wellbeing services.

Our first projects were with Sport England, delivering feasibility studies and contract procurement support for the National Centres. These early commissions led to further work, supporting national governing bodies, local authorities, leisure trusts and development partners with everything from strategic reviews, feasibility studies, business cases, facility development plans and procurement.

Our reputation grew quickly, and we became the go-to consultants for Sport England, local authorities and national governing bodies. We are proud to still be the largest specialist sport and leisure consultancy in the UK. We continue to grow and work with clients who seek robust, realistic and deliverable project outcomes.
