More than half of men and nearly three quarters of women are not active enough for their health and wellbeing.

Daily walking or cycling can prevent coronary heart disease, strokes and cancers and can tackle the worrying rise in obesity and mental health issues.

England’s leading walking, cycling and health organisations will deliver fifty practical projects to get two million people with increased awareness of opportunities to be more active by 2012.

Projects focus on regular journeys – to work, school or the shops – and address people’s motivation for walking and cycling.
