About the Young People Team

The BHFNC Young People Team provides information, guidance, leadership and support for health, education and exercise professionals to help keep physical activity promotion for children and young people high on the agenda. The team has excellent links with relevant, key national organisations and is involved in much collaborative work to enhance the effectiveness and impact of the BHFNC’s young people work.

The team has established a reputation for developing and disseminating good quality, evidence-based resources, training and programmes to help professionals encourage all children and young people to participate in more accessible physical activity as part of everyday life.

Particular areas of interest include, early years, whole-school physical activity promotion, out -of -school hours physical activity and establishing a health and physical activity legacy for children and young people.
