[PkGenerations] UKactive Membership

[News-Bot 147]

Having recently partnered with UKactive for National Fitness Day we are now very happy to become official members of UKactive and will be participating in their Active Training Awards Night this November.

UKactive is a not-for-profit body comprised of members and partners from across the UK active lifestyle sector. Members represent the full spectrum of the activity sector, from local leisure centres to multinational brands, from facility operators to activity providers working out of community centres. Their membership amounts to over 3,500 organisations and spreads the length and breadth of the UK.

We've been working alongside UKactive in various capacities for a little while now and they have always been hugely supportive of our efforts to engage people in natural, healthy movement through parkour. Membership is a great step and we're very happy to be able to work closer with such a great organisation going forward.

Ukactive states:

"We are committed to getting more people more active, more often, and to working with any organisation who shares this goal. By working with our partners, including Public Health England, Sport England and ASDA, we are working to turn the tide on inactivity and prevent over 37,000 premature deaths per year in the UK.

We recognise the vital role of the active lifestyle sector in facilitating, sponsoring and promoting physical activity. That's why we undertake key research into the activity and lifestyle sector and work closely with commercial brands and local authorities to develop and support initiatives which encourage more people to be more active, more often."
