Disabled children and young people benefit from physical activity, with exercise being good for health in many ways. Today the UK CMOs published physical activity guidelines to support this. Thank you to the children, young people and exercise experts who contributed.
The UK CMOs today will publish physical activity guidelines for disabled children & disabled young people. This report / infographic will help to fill an important gap in PA guidelines. I’m very grateful to all those who participated in co-production. https://t.co/cCcHyXqUOp
