Things the UK should do to promote and boost a healthy active lifestyle

Hello all steemIt citizens how are you all doing today.

Today I would like to talk about things I feel that if done correctly would help people get involved in a healthy active lifestyle, So let’s begin.

MORE SPORT CHANNELS
So if you live in the United Kingdom you may be familiar with the big sport broadcasting giants known as SKY SPORTS and BT SPORT these channels are available via a subscription cost, these broadcasting giants are great at delivering sport to the nation the biggest is by far the showcase of football (soccer) pacifically showing football from the Barclays premier league and the English football championship. So what can these broadcasters do to help others get involved in more sport or to help a individual get involved in a sport? Well I believe that these broadcasters should showcase more foreign (sport that isn’t very popular) sport we have Showcases of the NBA basketball and NFL American football however these games are very limited and after research both of these broadcasters only showcase 3NFL games a week and 5 NBA games a week this is because late evenings is currently full of highlight shows I feel if these broadcasters would showcase more sport that isn’t familiar in the United Kingdom people might find a new hobby and get involved.

SCIENTIFIC RESEARCHED advertising
This is another one involving Television and media however more ads showing proof of research about dieting and it’s benefits could also persuade and individual to take on a healthy lifestyle especially with the rise of people switching to Vegan.

MORE FUNDING INTO PARKS AND SPORTS FACILITIES
So you could say here in the United Kingdom there are already tons of places to play football and other sports and to walk around with the beautiful countrysides to the woodland walks to the vibrant parks however due to a problem that I have experienced myself is the Drug problem. How does a drug problem relate to this? Well due to the huge rise in knife crime and drug use around streets people have been afraid to leave there home to go for a walk or meet up with friends i personally experience this problem first hand as a man who lives in a guess “rough” area you could call it with drug use and knife crime very high it’s hard to really go out for a walk and enjoy yourself I feel if more funding went into parks sports facilities even little things like floodlights to light up a park better so you can feel a little bit safer will help people go for walks and get out more. more things need to be done such as a bigger presence of police around the country and much much more however I feel this is a step in the right direction.

CHARITY RUNS
Who doesn’t love marathon running? Well why don’t you do it for charity. A city like London has a beautiful London marathon that takes place every year here in my town and many towns they have smaller runs still marathons but maybe not as long or well known however according to statistics every year more and more people get involved in marathon running especially charity related running and this is also a step in the right direction and hopefully it become round more regularly personally I’d love to see more tough mudder runs in my local region.

LASTLY
Do you want to earn rewards for walking around outside whether that’s walking around town shopping of over the road to a friends get rewarded today

and that’s all I have for you Worldwide steemit users I hope you enjoyed my post please feel free to comment on what you think of my suggestions thank you very much for reading have a great day.

Good ideas! I definitely think promoting a more active lifestyle is important. I also think the approach of using TV to introduce new sports to people is very interesting, because most people who aren't active enough do watch TV and that would be a great way to introduce it to them

Thank you very much meowgan for your reply and yes I feel using tech to promote sports to help people understand how to play before playing may get them more motivated to try it out. Thanks again
