In Rochdale just 44.9% of children and young people are achieving an average of 60 minutes of physical activity a day.
The Chief Medical Officer (CMO) recommends that all children and young people achieve 60 minutes of physical activity a day, in Rochdale just four in ten young people achieve this. Concerningly, four in ten do not even achieve 30 minutes of physical activity every day (less active), this is higher than both the national and Greater Manchester (GM) average.
The proportion of children moving (achieving an average of at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day) in Rochdale has seen no statistically significant change since the survey began in 2017/18.
