Physical activity for health: framework
The Scottish Government has recently launched this framework for action to improve levels of physical activity at both national and local level which is firmly founded on evidence-based international guidance.
It recognises that plans and strategies across transport, education, planning and the environment have as great an impact as do those in health or sport in helping to improve the health and wellbeing of people in Scotland through increasing levels of physical activity.
The framework is available on the Scottish Government website.
