National Fitness Day is an annual campaign by ukactive that highlights the role physical activity plays across the UK, helping to raise awareness of its importance in assisting us to lead healthier lifestyles.

Having started back in 2011, National Fitness Day has seen millions get involved each year and while bringing people together through physical activity has a hugely positive impact, the campaign has evolved to encourage everyone to view this day as just one step in a much bigger journey.

This year’s tagline, "Powered by you!" marks a fresh direction - placing you at the heart of the movement.

National Fitness Day isn’t just about one day of activity, but about taking small, lasting steps toward a healthier, stronger future.

More than a quarter of the population in England is classed as inactive – averaging less than 30 minutes of exercise a week – according to Sport England’s latest Active Lives survey.

Being active can bring people together and positively impact our physical, mental and social wellbeing.

Fitness is for everyone and not just for one day a year!

Enjoy the life-long physical and mental benefits of being active.
