Be
Active.

All types of regular physical activity improve long-lasting physical and mental health, from walking the dog, to active travel or active play. Yet local data shows that many children, young people and adults in the Bailiwick do not meet physical activity recommendations.

The Be Active workstream aims to get more of us more active more often, by creating positive community initiatives and advocating for the development of environments which encourage and enable everyday physical activity. Alongside the UK chief medical officer’s physical activity guidelines, the emphasis is that every movement counts, the importance of breaking up sitting time and emphasis on strength and balance activities.
