HEALTH STRATEGY AND DOCUMENTS
 
 
Click below for further details about the various levels of strategy currently influencing delivery in Surrey:
National Strategy
 
CHOOSING HEALTH
This White Paper sets out the key principles for supporting the public to make healthier and more informed choices in regards to their health. The Government will provide information and practical support to get people motivated and improve emotional wellbeing and access to services so that healthy choices are easier to make. More>>
 
 
CHOOSING ACTIVITY
A physical activity action plan sets out Government's plans to encourage and co-ordinate the action of a range of departments and organisations to promote increased participation in physical activity across England. It is a summary of how we will deliver the commitments on physical activity presented in the public health white paper Choosing Health: making healthier choices easier. It brings together all the commitments relating to physical activity in Choosing Health as well as other action across government, which will contribute to increasing levels of physical activity.  More>>
 
 
At LEAST 5 A WEEK

GAME PLAN
Game Plan sets the challenge of moving from 30% of the population being regularly active in 1998 (5 times a week, 30 minutes, moderate intensity) to 70% in 2020.  More>>
 
 
EVERYDAY SPORT
Sport England has been set a target by Government of increasing participation in sport and physical activity by 3% in the next three years. Everyday Sport is the first major initiative in this long-term plan. The Everyday Sport campaign is all about small steps making a big difference. Everyday Sport can mean different things to different people, from taking the stairs instead of the lift or getting off the bus a stop early, to joining a sports club or registering for an exercise class.
