Children at Play—An Endangered Species?

&
Pages 291-298 | Published online: 15 Mar 2010
 

This article investigates the reasons for the low priority given to physical and outdoor activity in care services in Scotland. It highlights the variety of stakeholders involved in care services and the potential conflicts among them. National and local government need to commit to an integrated policy to challenge our current ‘toxic’ culture, with more incentives for business and communities to improve lifestyles and environments. Services should have better and easier access to council facilities and relevant expertise, including training, and physical activity need to be returned to the core curriculum.
