Ian Wilson, Chief Executive Officer, CASES said, The Chartered Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences, CASES (formerly BASES), is proud to be a Supporting Partner of the second Active Pregnancy Foundation Awards 2025. We were delighted to support the inaugural awards in 2023 and have worked closely with the APF over the publication of an Expert Statement (A Bump in the Road? The BASES Expert Statement on Pregnant and Postnatal Athletes) and the UK Version of the Get Active Questionnaire for Pregnancy. Can we congratulate all nominees and offer huge congratulations to those overall winners who have been recognised for their leadership, good practice, innovation, and research in supporting pregnant and postnatal women to become or stay active.”

About the Awards

The APF Awards celebrate the champions of active pregnancy—recognising individuals, organisations, and communities who have gone above and beyond to support and empower women to stay active before, during, and after pregnancy. As the only UK charity dedicated to breaking down barriers to physical activity during pregnancy and early motherhood, The APF is committed to changing perceptions and encouraging active lifestyles, supporting women to stay active throughout pregnancy and beyond, by providing expertise & advice, changing culture & challenging policy.

They take place on 6 June 2025 at 10 Union Street, London, and will bring together leaders from healthcare, sport, and community initiatives. The Awards will shine a light on leadership, good practice, innovation, and research because together we recognise that pregnancy is an opportunity to influence not only women’s health, but also that of their families and wider communities.
