Gerrards Cross and Denham Local Area Recommendations The Active Bucks project aspires to get everyone being more active, more often. Too few of us are doing enough physical activity to benefit our health. This means we’re missing out on all the other benefits being active can bring, such as improving our mental wellbeing, reducing our risk of disease and disability, connecting with other local people, our communities, and maintaining our independence in later life. To support this, the Active Bucks team have been engaging residents, groups and organisations in your local area to establish: What opportunities residents would like to engage with to be more active Local Community Champions that can engage other local residents to be more active What assets already exist that could be better utilised to increase physical activity? The recommendations provided at the end of this pack were developed as a result of input from national data, community engagement in your local area, asset mapping, an evidence review and discussions with stakeholders. The recommendations are to support the decisions around the type of physical activity interventions that should be delivered to target groups with the greatest need. 1 The Local Picture POPULATION OF GERRARDS CROSS AND DENHAM LOCAL1 AREA 100% 90% 22.4 17.8 17.3 80% 70% n 60% o i t a 50% 62.0 63.8 l 58.9 u p 40% o p l 30% a t o 20% t f o 10% 18.7 20.3 19.0 % 0% Gerrards Cross Buckinghamshire England Aged 0-15 Working age Aged 65+ LONG TERM CONDITIONS IN ADULTS How many people have health conditions that could be prevented by being more physically active?
