Promotion of physical activity in children

programme guidance

a cost-effectiveness scenario analysis of four interventions to increase child and adolescent physical activity

the case of walking buses, free swimming, dance classes and community

As part of the guidance aimed at promoting physical activity, play and sport for pre-school and school age children in family, pre-school, school and community settings within this report we sought to investigate the possibility of estimating the cost-effectiveness of four specific interventions which were already provided in certain parts of the country:

1. walking buses,
2. dance classes,
3. free swimming, and
4. a community sports scheme.

Preliminary estimates of the potential cost-effectiveness of these interventions were made, based on the evidence that was available. However, it was necessary to make a number of assumptions in order to produce these estimates and we thereby also attempted to estimate the level of uncertainty surrounding them. These are discussed with some of the caveats in this paper as well as need for further research in areas where data or information is missing.
