Ready to turn your everyday walks, cycles and adventures around Stockport into a family challenge? Street Tag is coming to Stockport from 28th September 2026, with Life Leisure as a proud partner.
Street Tag is a free app that turns your local area into a virtual playground, encouraging families and communities to get active while exploring the places around them.
Whether you’re walking to school, heading to the park, cycling into town, or simply getting out for some fresh air, you can use the Street Tag app to collect virtual tags, earn points and help your school climb the leaderboard.
And it isn’t just for children. Parents, carers and school staff can join in too, making it a great way for the whole family to get moving together.
How does Street Tag work?
It’s simple.
Download the free Street Tag app and join your school’s team. Once you’re set up, you’ll be able to see virtual tags on the map around your local area.
Then it’s time to get out and start tagging!
Walk, run, cycle, or wheel your way around Stockport, collecting tags as you go. When you’re within around 40 metres of a virtual tag, the app automatically awards the points to your team. Tags are generally worth around 50 points, while special tags can offer bonus points. Your activity and points all contribute towards your school’s position on the leaderboard.
The Stockport school leaderboard season runs from 28th September until 23rd November 2026, giving families plenty of time to get involved and help their school climb the rankings.
Make getting active a family adventure
One of the best things about Street Tag is that you don’t need to plan a special workout.
Your usual walk can become a tag collecting challenge. Your school run can become a chance to collect a few extra points. A trip to the park can turn into an afternoon of exploring.
Street Tag places virtual tags in locations including parks, libraries and popular active travel routes, encouraging you to discover more of the area around you. You can also create virtual tags along your own favourite routes.
So why not choose a different route home, explore a new green space or challenge the family to see who can find the most tags?
Helping Stockport move more
As a proud Street Tag partner, Life Leisure is supporting the challenge to encourage more people across Stockport to discover enjoyable, accessible ways to be active in their everyday lives.
We’re also adding a little extra incentive along the way, with family swimming sessions and a physical activity day for one lucky school up for grabs.
It’s a chance to celebrate the people and schools getting involved while encouraging even more movement across the community.
Get your school on the leaderboard
Schools are at the heart of the upcoming Stockport Street Tag season.
Children can join their school’s team, but they don’t have to compete alone. Parents, carers and school staff can all be part of the team, working together to build up points and move their school up the leaderboard. Teams can include up to 250 participants.
And with prizes up for grabs, including the jackpot of £500*, there’s even more reason to get competitive.
