Time for a Change


Here are the results of the activity surveys of 2008-2010...

Many different partners are working together to encourage more people to become more active more often. The Active Partnership in South Gloucestershire has the challenging aim of increasing local participation to foster an Active Mind in an Active Body by merging leisure and cultural services.

Physical activity includes almost anything that raises the heart rate above resting level e.g. walking, gardening and informal play as well as more traditional sports and fitness activities. 

The challenging Local Area Agreement targets have been achieved over a year ahead of schedule!

This means that over 7,000 people - who declared that they were insufficiently active at the start of the programme - are now physically active at least three times a week!

Please see our other Active for Life pages for many ways to be active in South Gloucestershire.
