LOCAL AND NATIONAL INSIGHT

If we are to create a more active population, we need to have a granular understanding of the people we aim to support and the environment within which we are operating.

By sharing knowledge between ourselves and our partners, we can understand what works best to create the conditions for people to be active, using this knowledge to guide decision-making.

On this page, we share some of the insight that we have pulled together, as well as links to information that has been produced by others which helps to inform what we do.

If you would like to find out more about this area of our work, please contact us.
