Active Lives Survey, 2018-2019

<p><br></p> <p>The Active Lives Survey (ALS) commenced in November 2015. It replaces the Active People Survey, which ran from 2005 to 2015. The survey provides the largest sample size ever established for a sport and recreation survey and allows levels of detailed analysis previously unavailable. It identifies how participation varies from place to place, across different sports, and between different groups in the population. The survey also measures levels of activity (active, fairly active and inactive), the proportion of the adult population that volunteer in sport, club membership, sports spectating and well-being measures such as happiness and anxiety. The questionnaire was designed to enable analysis of the findings by a broad range of demographic information, such as gender, social class, ethnicity, household structure, age and disability.<br><br>More general information about the study can be found on the Sport England <a href="https://www.sportengland.org/research/active-lives-survey/">Active Lives Survey</a> webpage and the <a href="https://activelives.sportengland.org/">Active Lives Online</a> website, including reports and data tables.<br> </p>
