Dean Horridge, founder of children’s activity provider Fit For Sport, is stepping down from his role as the company's CEO.

"It is with excitement and mixed emotions that I wish to communicate that I have decided to move into a new role within Fit For Sport," Horridge said.

"After 29 years of being Founder and CEO of Fit For Sport I have made the decision to step back from the day to day operating of the business.

"From March 2020 I will continue as a board member supporting the business. I'm looking forward to my new role and thank you for your support over many years and I look forward to continuing to work with you into the future. I'm so proud of the hundreds of thousands of children engaged in our amazing journey."

Fit For Sport is part of the Junior Adventures Group and specialises in Ofsted-registered holiday activity camps.

The camps are designed to engage all children from 4-12 years old through multi-sports, games, and arts and crafts so that they can make friends and keep active throughout the holiday.
