Details

The physical activity data tool brings together physical activity data at local level for England.

The tool presents data on physical activities including walking and cycling, as well as information on related risk factors and conditions such as obesity and diabetes.

The aim of the tool is to help promote physical activity, develop understanding and support the benchmarking, commissioning and improvement of services locally.

This update includes two new indicators:

• percentage of physically active adults
• percentage of physically inactive adults

These indicators use a new source of data and definition to currently published physical activity indicators.
