Transform your local region with 99active
If you're a creative, you already know you have so much talent, skill and passion to share, right? But maybe what you don’t realise is that in sharing your skills you can also create meaningful connections and enhance your community. And if you’re in the UK, we’re excited to invite you to be a part of the UK launch of 99active this month—a movement dedicated to enriching every corner of the country with unique, immersive experiences designed by locals, for locals.How to get involved and share your passion
At 99active, we believe in the power of local talent. Whether you're an expert in traditional crafts, a guru of the great outdoors, or an artist with a flair for the modern, there's a place for you here. By becoming a provider, you can turn your passion into a thriving venture and contribute to the cultural fabric of your region.But what does it mean to become a provider on 99active?
It means you get your own dedicated online space to offer your unique skills and talents in the form of experiences in your local area. We call experiences 'acts' because you are the rockstar of your experience, taking to the stage and putting on an amazing show for your participants. And making real changes in their lives as you teach, entertain, and share. And the big problem is that people in your local region are crying out for unique gigs that get them out of their mundane ‘normal’ day-to-day living and into something exciting that enriches their minds, bodies and souls. So can you be the one to meet the local demand for experiences?![Pottery Class](/images/blog/2024/2024-06-15-2.jpeg)

As we just mentioned, there's a growing market of individuals and families eager to explore new hobbies and learn traditional skills. They're looking for more than just a pastime. They want meaningful experiences and connections. As a 99active provider, you'll meet this demand head-on, offering activities that resonate with people’s desire for authenticity and hands-on engagement.Showcase your region's unique charm
Every region of the UK has its own unique charm and history. What do you love about your local region? What special experiences do you think locals should be having?
