More than half of young Londoners (54%) are not meeting the recommended levels of physical activity for their health and wellbeing. The findings, taken from Sport England’s “Active Lives” report, show that nearly 620,000 children between the ages of 5 and 16 are not achieving the recommend 60 minutes of daily exercise as set out by the Chief Medical Officer (618,900). According to the UK Government, 1 in 6 premature deaths are caused by physical inactivity and costs the UK £7.4 billion annually.
