UK: 'Help people be more active' call
Submitted by Brent Efford on Mon, 28/04/2008 - 22:25Children should be encouraged to play outside and adults to walk or cycle more, health and transport groups say.
Over 70 groups, including public health doctors and the Ramblers' Association, are asking candidates in this week's local elections to back such ideas.
They want each to pledge to invest 10% of transport budgets in walking and cycling initiatives.
The Association of Directors of Public Health said boosting activity levels would help tackle obesity.
