  • A lower proportion of children in Reigate and Banstead are getting enough exercise than before the pandemic, new figures show.

The article from MSN discusses a concerning trend in Reigate and Banstead, where fewer children are meeting the recommended levels of physical activity compared to before the global health crisis. According to the data, only 47% of children and young people in this area are achieving the Chief Medical Officers' guideline of at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity daily. This figure represents a decline from pre-COVID-19 levels, highlighting the lasting impact of the lockdown measures which restricted sports and outdoor activities. The article points out that this decrease in physical activity could have long-term health implications for the youth, including increased risks of obesity, mental health issues, and other chronic conditions. Local authorities and health experts are now focusing on initiatives to encourage more physical activity among children to reverse this trend.
