Each quarter we survey the nation to create a barometer of wellbeing in the UK across key areas; financial, physical, mental and social wellbeing.

This quarter’s Wellbeing Index focuses on Physical Activity, and it reveals that 67% of employees believe it’s an employer’s responsibility to support their physical wellbeing.

The majority of people know the NHS guidelines and know the risks of a sedentary lifestyle. Our Wellbeing index reveals that it’s not a lack of awareness that’s the problem, it’s a lack of responsibility. This latest report takes a close look at how active we are as a nation, barriers and motivations to exercise and how employees expect businesses to step up.

See key findings from the report in the highlights video here.

We’ve also created a series of regional specific spotlights using the data from our Wellbeing Index. Click your nearest city in our interactive city league table on our Wellbeing Index page to access your free fact sheet.
