Further information on the prevalence of exercising at ward level without taking into
account age or gender, is given in the 76 page Public Health Profiles for Hull, as well as
in the Hull Atlas. An Obesity and Exercise report which examined factors predicting
those people who never exercise and those who fulfil the national exercise guidelines
was produced from the 2007 Health and Lifestyle Survey. It was found that people with
fewer qualifications and with worse physical and mental health were less likely to fulfil
the national exercise guidelines, and people living in more deprived areas, on lower
incomes, with lower levels of qualifications and poorer physical and mental health were
more likely to never exercise. The Hull Atlas, Obesity and Exercise report as well as the
survey reports (Health and Lifestyle Survey 2007 and Prevalence Survey 2009) are all
available at www.hullpublichealth.org.

It is recommended that children and young people undertake at least one hour of
physical activity every day. Young people in the 2008-09 Health and Lifestyle Survey
were asked to provide an estimate of the number of hours they had undertaken sporting
and other physical activity the previous week. Table 126 illustrates the percentage who
reported that they had been active for seven or more hours the previous week by school
