Caveats

  • Self-reported survey (Sport England Active Lives): people may over- or under-recall activity.
  • Survey sample here was an unweighted sample of about 2,751 adults; the true figure plausibly lies between 68.9% and 72.3%.
  • Higher means more adults active. No better/worse ranking beyond the Fingertips wording above.

Missing or suppressed values are never shown as zero — every card above passed validation with a real numeric value.
