Our latest version of the Class of 2035 report, produced in partnership with research agency Savanta, uses artificial intelligence modelling and insights from children’s polling to project the consequences of current inactivity trends for the children of the Class of 2035. It paints a concerning picture of a nation at a crossroads, with inactivity rising and wellbeing declining. The release of the report comes as the Chancellor prepares to deliver the Autumn Budget. With the health and economic costs of inactivity among children projected to rise sharply, the report highlights the need for targeted investment in physical activity and PE. Strategic funding could reverse these alarming trends, helping to secure better health outcomes, educational attainment, and life chances for the next generation.

New #ThisGirlCan ad alert 🚨 We're reframing what getting active looks like to women who feel they don't belong in the exercise world. How ever you like to move, we like it! Start with just 10 minutes of movement and see how it makes you feel. bit.ly/4gf3WZo
