Why
Children's physical activity levels have decreased significantly over the past few decades, and the negative implications of this trend can be severe and distressing.
The evidence is clear: children in the UK are becoming less active, with contributing factors such as increased screen time, less active school commutes, changing social habits, and the lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. This decline in physical activity is linked to rising childhood obesity rates and a range of physical and mental health issues, underscoring the urgent need for interventions to promote more active lifestyles among young people.
By giving children a strong foundation from a young age and equipping them with the tools to engage in long-term participation in sport and exercise, we can begin to address this growing concern and help reverse these troubling trends.
