UKACTIVE KIDS

Developing a national approach to physical activity for children and young people

SUMMARY

ukactive, the UK’s leading not-for-profit health body for the physical activity sector, is working with local and national partners to develop a policy-driven, practical approach to increasing accessibility and providing more opportunities for children and young people to be physically active.

We want to learn from the experience and knowledge of national and local organisations and individuals to create an approach built on what works across the settings, institutions and social environments that children and young people experience.

COLLABORATE

Collaboration is the stuff of growth!

Childhood inactivity is a shared problem and evidence shows the need for changing the way our communities and institutions support children and young people to promote and provide positive physical activity opportunities. ukactive welcomes contributions from all parts of society, not only to capture feedback from big businesses and organisations but also to empower and support individuals and grass roots initiatives.
