Interested to hear other people’s thoughts on this. Has Joe actually made a difference to physical activity or have people just tuned in? Do views equate to expertise? Do young people need ‘HIIT’ from their PE curriculum?
Give teenagers a voice in physical activity... ncphwr.org.uk/let-them-have-… < Watch the full video here! What's going on right now is showing us how important activity is for our H&WB. Don't deprive teens of that; watch the video! @NCPHWR_Wales @BHFCymru #AcademicTwitter

Loved having the opportunity to attend @lleisiaubach Summit On Climate Change 🌍 Inspiring to see young people passionate about making changes. They have great ideas around what we can do to make a difference to #ClimateChange 💡 “We are the change, and change is coming...”
This #iwillWeek you could see the #PowerofYouth and the differences that could be made if we give young people a voice on issues that matter to them. Here are some quotes from our research that we think teenagers will want you to hear... We don't know whats best. They do.

Chuffed to have this paper published in @Open_HeartBMJ today 🙌🏻 Physical activity cannot be understated. We NEED to facilitate positive experiences that will be carried into adulthood... It has HUGE benefits. @BHFCymru @NCPHWR_Wales @SwanseaUni – at Swansea, Wales

Really love this article from Marianne Mannello of @PlayWales. Highlights just how different adult v young people's perceptions of play is and what contributes valuable playing space... This is why we need to involve them in planning. thedeveloper.live/opinion/op…
