Get Involved: Take Part in the Physical Activity and Wellbeing Residents' Survey!

Active Together, alongside Local Authority Physical Activity Teams and other physical activity, sport and wellbeing partners across Leicestershire, Leicester and Rutland, would like to understand how you feel about being active, your current habits and your future intentions.This will help to identify what support and opportunities are needed in our local communities to help you and other residents lead healthy active lives.

The information you provide will be used by your Local Authority, Active Together and other physical activity, sport and health providers to shape a local physical activity and sport offer with a focus on improving residents' health and wellbeing.

Don't worry if you are not currently taking part in activity or not regularly attending sports sessions, your views are equally as important. If you require more information or guidance on how you can move a little more, please visit www.active-together.org/public.

The 2022 survey provided us and our partners with valuable insight into our communities' attitudes and intentions towards moving more. We have gone on to utilise this information to shape our policies, programmes, and communications. Some examples of this are:

  • We have themed our Let's Get Moving messaging to raise awareness of low-cost activities and local opportunities based on barriers to participation that were identified within the survey.
  • We have increased the number of local Let's Get Moving champions to inspire people to move more, sharing their stories on how being active has supported their physical and mental wellbeing.
  • Residents told us that health conditions were one of the biggest challenges to being active – we have developed links with health charities linked with the national "We Are Undefeatable" campaign to encourage those with long-term health conditions to be move more.
  • We have recently developed our Diversity and Inclusion Plan - survey results were utilised to help us identify the challenges and opportunities that we needed to respond to.

This year, if opted in, all respondents will be in with a chance of winning one of 15 x £20 Amazon.co.uk Gift Cards.

Please note residents must be over 18 years of age and live within Leicestershire, Leicester or Rutland to complete the survey.

The closing date for this survey is midnight on Sunday 14th July 2024.
