Sport England collects data on the number of people aged 16+ who engage in sport and physical activity in England through the Active Lives Survey. The latest data is available online (covering the period May 2016 to May 2017): https://www.sportengland.org/media/12458/active-lives-adult-may-16-17-report.pdf<\/p>

The Active Lives Survey replaced the Active People Survey which collected data from the period of October 2005 to September 2016. Data is available online: https://www.sportengland.org/research/about-our-research/active-people-survey/. Owing to the different methodologies employed, the data sets from the two surveys are not directly comparable.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The Active Lives Survey does not currently capture data for children. Government\u2019s Sporting Future strategy, published in 2015, extended the remit of Sport England to include children aged 5 years and up, outside of the school day. In line with this, Sport England has developed the Active Lives Children survey which is capturing data for children aged 5-15, both in and outside of school. The survey was launched in schools in September 2017 with the first set of results available in early 2019.<\/p>

<\/p>

This strategy sets out government's ambition to get more people engaged in sport and physical activity, particularly those who are currently least active, including those in lower socio-economic groups, some BME groups, older people, women and those with a disability.<\/p>
