As you will be aware, there are multiple statistics / facts / statements which we can use to promote physical activity, however, this also means that we may also be using slightly different versions, as may our partners, and therefore this may cause some confusion.
To try and overcome this, we have developed the 'Let's Get Moving: Making the Case' document which provides headline facts for physical activity linked the following areas:
- Population Trends
- Inequalities and Participation
- Health and Wellbeing
- Climate
- Planning
- Economy
LGM - Making the Case
PowerPoint Slides
Please copy and paste these stats/ facts slides into your presentations as you wish.

Physical Activity Guidelines
The UK Chief Medical Officers' physical activity guidelines reinforce the importance of physical activity by providing recommendations on the frequency, intensity, duration and types of physical activity required for health benefits.
The guidelines apply across different age groups, life stages (from early to later years), irrespective of gender, ethnicity or socio-economic status.
These are available for our partners to use and can be downloaded via the link provided.

We have produced localised leaflets of the Chief Medical Officer's Infographics explaining the physical activity needed for general health benefits at different life stages.
Adult Active Lives Survey
The most recent Adult Active Lives Survey results were released on the 20th April 2023. We have created some social media graphics and example posts for you to use on your social media accounts to share the latest Leicestershire, Leicester and Rutland stats with your audiences.
