We used the 2019 physical activity needs assessment and spoke with clubs, schools, and sports organisations to write the strategy. It has:
- a set of strategic results we hope to achieve
- objectives for improvement
- a measurable action plan
The strategy includes information about:
- rules and guidelines published by the UK's Chief Medical Officer in September 2019
- the health and wellbeing of citizens in Bristol
- physical activity levels in the city
We're going to make a new framework to make sure the strategy works well and achieves its aims. We'll use this to measure how activity changes compared to 2019.
