The UK’s largest healthcare charity Nuffield Health has launched free fitness classes for 11–16-year-old girls nationwide following research revealing that over half of parents of teenage girls worry their daughter does not get enough exercise.
In response to this data Nuffield Health the UK’s largest healthcare charity has launched Move Together to get 11–16-year-old girls across the nation moving and more physically active. The free programme is available in communities across the UK all year round and will tackle the barriers that young girls face when it comes to exercise and fitness.
More than four in five (84%) teenage girls say their interest in sport and fitness diminished after starting their period and almost one in four (23%) say they feel embarrassed to take part in physical activity during their menstrual cycle.
Despite this the girls surveyed have a clear understanding of the benefits of sport and fitness with 40% saying they have fun when taking part in activities and almost one-third (32%) know it has a positive impact on their mental health. Girls also have a desire to be good at sport and fitness and 16% admit to being jealous of peers who excel in the area.
