Measuring the nation's activity levels

We run two surveys: Active Lives Adult, which is published twice a year and replaced our Active People Survey, and the world-leading Active Lives Children and Young People, which is published annually.

Both give a unique and comprehensive view of how people are getting active.

Our most recent reports are available to download below, while a summary of the findings of our latest Adult report can be read here. You can also explore and filter the data yourself using our Active Lives Online tool.

A summary of our Children and Young People report can be found here.
