Understanding the role of physical activity for health and wellbeing of children The government’s ‘Tackling Physical Inactivity – a coordinated approach’ report identified the need for a specific focus on physical activity in the first 15 years of life.

Inactivity in children sees an increased burden of disease, reduced quality of life,
