The ukactive Research Institute The ukactive Research Institute holds a unique partnership between academia and the sector to turn the tide of physical inactivity. It co-ordinates and delivers research designed to improve the use of physical activity in everyday life.

The core aim of the Research Institute is to generate academic publications and conduct research which will contribute to answering fundamental questions related to how to get ‘more people, more active, more often’.

Each project undertaken will, when completed, be publishable in a peer-reviewed journal article, constitute the basis of a major policy report/insight document, or produce otherwise strategically relevant data.

What we can do for you All organisations wishing to provide physical activity are being challenged to demonstrate the effectiveness of their interventions. Academic institutions are similarly challenged to demonstrate the impact of research on the everyday delivery of activity. Recognising these challenges through its network of partners the Institute: Connects research organisations with activity providers Develops and leads a unique research programme

Vision Impact: To make a tangible and clinically significant impact on the health of the UK population.

Methods: To facilitate the capture and dissemination of data relating to all forms of physical activity in all environments.

Conducts thorough literature reviews and analysis Works in collaboration with Local Authorities in order to gain a better understanding of the impact and evidence supporting the delivery of physical activity programmes within local communities.

Data and Insight Capturing, sharing and analysing data in new ways can transform how our sector develops and how we continue to make decisions. Through the use and manipulation of data ukactive aims to provide comprehensive market insight and generate bespoke consumer intelligence to support your business performance.

How can we help?

We can work with you on a data driven approach to develop evidenced based recommendations and strategic advice designed to achieve your strategic business priorities.

ukactive projects ukactive delivers projects that support members, attract more people into physical activity and showcase the valuable role our members and partners play in helping us turn the tide of inactivity. Here, we showcase three projects delivered in 2016.

National Fitness Day 2016 powered by Argos National Fitness Day is Powered by ukactive’s single largest campaign that brings together the physical activity sector and all those that are interested in getting the nation more active. National Fitness Day is the single moment of the year that celebrates the sector’s role in achieving a more active UK and raises the public profile of physical activity.

In 2016, we ran around 18,000 activities at almost 6,000 venues generating great public awareness of the role ukactive member’s play in supporting people to enjoy physically activity.

The ukactive team are already developing how we can further engage members, employers and education providers so National Fitness Day can be even bigger and better in 2017!

Change4Life 10 Minute Shake Up ukactive and our members supported the Change4Life 10 Minute Shake Up 2016 summer campaign. This was an exciting initiative from Change4Life with Disney, aiming to inspire the nation’s children and their families to get moving with some of their favourite Disney characters.

This year we were able to offer ukactive members a unique opportunity to use Disney characters as part of

the successful summer release of Finding Dory to get children and their families involved. ukactive members jumped at the chance to get involved with over 2,000 activities being delivered directly.

We are also working with Public Health England to get ukactive members involved in wider national campaigns that aim to get the nation more active.

Let’s Get Moving Let’s Get Moving supports those adults who will benefit most to live a healthier lifestyle through being more physically active.

Let’s Get Moving provides motivating and supportive signposting into a whole range of locally available or commissioned activity related services.

The model, delivered by ukactive, is centred on the provision of a trained Community Exercise Professional located within GP surgeries, but has been adapted to other settings.

The programme is fast expanding with the projects team looking at alternate delivery models, some which include a specific model aimed at specific medical conditions and options to deliver the programme in community setting such as member facilities, community spaces or mother and baby groups.

ukactive’s Public Affairs Team The overriding role of ukactive Public affairs team is to champion the aims of ukactive’s members and Strategic Partners with Government, Government bodies and the broader public. Through academic research, scientific evidence and in consultation with an experienced membership base that live and breathe physical activity, we are able to influence the policy agenda both in the UK and internationally, contributing to the drive to get more people, more active, more often and grow the sector.

Following the release of ukactive’s Blueprint for an Active Britain in November 2015 - a stakeholder-led physical activity roadmap outlining over eighty policy recommendations for government to embed physical activity into every aspect of daily life – the focus for ukactive’s Public Affairs team in 2016 has been to develop and deliver this vision practically.

This commitment has perhaps been demonstrated most notably through the ‘Workout from Work’ initiative. This policy recommendation called for an expansion of the government’s ‘Cycle to Work scheme’ to include a broader range of physical activity opportunities and accessories and positioned ukactive as one of the UK’s key thought leaders in workplace wellbeing. Initial meetings between ukactive and HM Treasury highlighted that a compelling, credible cost-benefit analysis will be key to securing the implementation of Workout from Work and as such ukactive have ensured that this analysis is underway.

Numerous government strategies have been released this year which have highlighted the importance of tackling inactivity - with the government and Sport England strategies announcing cross-departmental working in addition to new funding and investment opportunities to get more people active. Most recently - the Childhood Obesity Plan outlined a vision for improving children’s activity levels and explicitly mentioned ukactive in leading the promotion of healthier food and drink options in leisure centres. ukactive’s team are committed to connecting government and stakeholders from the public, private and third sectors to ensure that physical activity is at the heart of the preventative public health agenda. In June 2016 ukactive collaborated with the Sport and Recreation Alliance to produce a joint member resource to support our members to navigate the public health landscape - a resource which also included guidance from Public Health England and Sport England.

Looking Forward The ukactive public affairs team acknowledge that recognising the views of our members and understanding the unique issues that the sector faces is essential to our work. From establishing roundtable discussions on some of the major risks and threats facing the sector to bringing government representatives to liaise with our members at stakeholder events we aim to champion our members and ensure that we represent the changing landscape of the sector and diversity of our membership.

BUSINESS COMPLIANCE

Business compliance ukactive has developed a variety of different products and documents aimed at driving up standards across the entire sector.

Code of Practice The ukactive Code of Practice is designed to ensure that health and fitness operators maintain a basic level of practice for the safety and wellbeing of their customers. By complying with the standards of the ukactive Code of Practice the sector can start to raise the level of operation throughout all ukactive facilities and create a symbol of quality that the exercising public will look for before joining a fitness club or centre.

Compliance with the ukactive Code of Practice communicates commitment to standards, quality and customer welfare.

It is an important statement to Government and other regulatory bodies that the health and fitness sector is a professional industry that takes its operation and duty of care seriously.

Outdoor Code of Practice There has been a proliferation of both group exercise classes and personal training sessions being conducted within public spaces and most notably urban parks.

The ukactive Outdoor Code of Practice defines the minimum performance criteria for fitness instructors delivering exercise in outdoor spaces, to ensure that customers are provided with a safe environment in which to engage with leisure activities. The Outdoor Code of Practice compliments current licensing arrangements for urban parks and managed rural areas, whereby local councils adopt the Code as a pre-requisite for licenses. ukactive Kids Code of Practice The ukactive Kids Code of Practice has been created specifically for ukactive members who work closely with children.

This Code goes in to the specifics of offering and delivering safe and controlled activities for Children.

Health Commitment Statement The Health Commitment Statement sets the standards that health and fitness centres and facility users can reasonably expect from each other, concerning the health of the user.

The HCS is the evolution of the PAR-Q and was developed by ukactive operator members, medico-legal professionals and health providers to support the evolving requirements of users and operators. The HCS has been designed for users in a gym environment and with all operators in mind, allowing flexibility with its usage.

European Standards ukactive also sit on various British and European committees to make sure that our members are at the fore-front of all new legislative changes, as well as being involved in the development of them.

Blueprint for an Active Britain: Milestone Review synopsis Last year ukactive called for a single-minded focusing of resources, energy and policy to turn the tide of inactivity in the UK. Blueprint & Milestone Review This radical call for change – through over 80 policy recommendations – was the essence of ukactive’s “Blueprint for an Active Britain”.

The evidence of our nation’s plight is stark and unacceptable, threatening the economic and social fabric of our society.

In the UK alone, physical inactivity is costing £20billion per year, causing up to 37,000 premature deaths annually, and is now the fourth greatest cause of disease, disability and premature mortality.

As nations become more prosperous, they find ways to engineer activity out of everyday lives. Delivering the ambition of a society where activity is reintegrated into every element of how we live is a monumental task – heightened by decades of regression. It’ll take time to shift the habits and wider culture we have developed whereby activity has been built out of our daily routines. We are ready for the challenge. We have seen immense progress but it is time to elevate this issue once again. To build on the foundation blocks that have already been laid and create a society that supports, encourages, and celebrates the importance of activity.

Milestone Review In the Milestone Review, we document the 12 months since the publication of Blueprint, providing a commentary on the recent successes - and challenges - faced in delivering an active nation. We also set out what we believe to be the next set of deliverable and effective milestones over the coming year. These recommendations span from cradle to grave and seek to re-embed activity into how we live, work, travel, and play.

A major strength over the last year has been the willing of institutions with significant influence and resource, such as Government, the NHS, and Sport England, to embrace this mission in their new strategies and programmes. The challenge now is to deliver on these strategies and at pace by putting in place the diversity of partnerships needed to achieve this shared goal and finding new ways of thinking to reflect a dramatically 18

changed landscape. There’s no turning back. ukactive – with the support of its 4,000 members – is committed to playing its part. We will look to remain at the forefront of the debate, celebrating success and challenging obstacles from a perspective of the immense network we represent across the country and the surest grip on both the reality on the ground and the evidence base for what works.

We will work to facilitate the partnerships across the public, private, and third sector that can achieve sustainable change within communities. We will also continue to champion innovation that can advance the physical activity sector, and prioritise investment in people and the future leaders of our sector.

Above all, we believe that - given the seriousness of inactivity in our society - this debate must transcend short term thinking. Delivering an active nation, with all the physical, mental, social, and economic benefits that this brings, should be a mission that unites us all.

Let’s elevate it above the daily debate, remove it from the pantomime of party politics, and give an active nation the focus, priority, and financing to thrive. Let’s pull together a brand new delivery team to move this ambition forward at a pace, scale and level of impact of which we have never seen before.

We have never had a moment such as this before. If we do not transform our approach now, and miss this chance, then we never will.

ukactive handbook 2016/17

Moving Forward It is vital that the Government and key stakeholders work towards the below top 10 policy 2017 recommendations to deliver the Blueprint’s vision for an active Britain.

Recommendation: There should be a scaled roll-out of exercise intervention programmes in GP surgeries across the country, based on behavioural change models which are proven to be effective, such as the Lets Get Moving Programme.

Recommendation: The Government should utilise the tax system to expand upon the successful Cycle to Work scheme with the introduction of the Workout from Work Scheme. This would create an economic incentive to encourage people to get active and reduce the barriers to doing so.

Recommendation: The Government and key stakeholders should drive a ÂŁ1 billion investment programme to make leisure facilities the preventative frontline of the NHS. The programme will transform tired leisure centres into state of the art facilities that can inspire a generation to get active and serve as a one stop shop for community services.

make direct interventions to safeguard children who are at risk of ill health due to their fitness levels.

Recommendation: Funding from the soft drinks levy should be used beyond the schools gates to offer accessible physical activity sessions over holiday periods. ukactive’s research shows that children are losing around 80 per cent of the fitness they build up during the school year due to inactive summer holidays.
