EVENT PREVIEW

2 ELEVATE 2016 SHOW GUIDE

The UK’s first cross-sector event bringing together

academia, healthcare, government, the physical

activity sector and performance experts to focus on an

increasingly important and complex societal challenge:

turning the tide on inactivity.

Most agree that addressing such a complex challenge

will require a complex solution, one underpinned by

cross-sector collaboration. Elevate is a rare opportunity

to learn more about what the solution will look like.

By bringing together ‘all of those best placed to

tackle physical inactivity’ under one roof, this two-day

event will create a free-to-access arena in which

local authorities, leisure operators, academics, allied

healthcare professionals, practitioners, performance

experts, business leaders and policy makers can

debate, share experiences and network with others

who share the same principles and passion for raising

the levels of physical activity throughout the UK.

SEMINAR GUIDE

Physical Activity for Health and Wellbeing

Context

“If sport and physical activity was a drug, it

would be regarded as a miracle”

- Dame Sally Davies, Chief Medical Officer, Department

for Health.

Physical activity can provide a major step change in

public health. Widely acknowledged as key to reducing

the burden of preventable death, disease, and disability,

exercise is capable of helping people and their

communities achieve greater health and wellbeing, which

promises to help reduce current levels of health inequality.

The role of exercise can also affect a person’s state of

mind and body, increasing feelings of wellbeing, mental

alertness and energy. However, exercise is not just about

prevention but also treatment, and healthcare professionals

have a crucial role to play in understanding and promoting

these benefits.

Understanding the emerging evidence and how it

continues to strengthen the connections between exercise,

health and wellbeing has never been more important. This

stream is about interpreting the most significant examples

of evidence, and how this newly acquired knowledge is

being used to good effect by industry and healthcare.

The audience can expect illustrations of how exercise can

improve health and wellbeing, demonstrating its value,

contribution and results through the latest research and

best practice examples.

Who should attend?

Practitioners responsible for the delivery of healthcare

and physiotherapy, allied healthcare professionals, local

authorities, GPs and primary care, secondary care,

community services, occupational health, NHS executives,

health promotion professionals, health and wellbeing

boards, clinical commissioning groups, sports and exercise

doctors, nurse practitioners, social care professionals,

community groups and third sector organisations.

Physical activity as preventative care

Physical inactivity is responsible for 17% of premature deaths and 10.5% of heart disease

cases in the UK, with inactive people 59% more likely to develop osteoporosis than an active

person. Given these and other statistics the NHS is putting an emphasis on preventative care,

this seminar will examine the latest research and evidence illustrating the case for physical

activity as a means of preventative care.

Digital therapies – physical activity and self-management of health and wellbeing

The NHS has a huge funding shortage and is in need of efficiency solutions, this session

will explore the role of ‘digital therapies’ and physical activity in solving this crisis. There

are numerous devices available to monitor the body and predict and prevent illness; as

well as a mass of real time data that can be streamed to clinicians to reduce the burden

on services. How can the NHS and healthcare professionals engage with this digital

revolution? How can digital therapies allow the public to take ownership of their health by

keeping them better informed? And how will technology change the relationship between

care pathways, patients and physical activity?

SEMINAR GUIDE

Understanding the role of physical activity for health and wellbeing of children

The government’s ‘Tackling Physical Inactivity – a coordinated approach’ report identified

the need for a specific focus on physical activity in the first 15 years of life. It is understood

that healthy behaviour established in childhood influences health and wellbeing outcomes

later in life. Inactivity in children sees an increased burden of disease, reduced quality of life,

and lower life expectancy while active children have improved concentration, positive social

behaviour, lower anxiety and depression and are more happy and satisfied. This session will

explore the latest research into the positive impact of physical activity for children’s health and

wellbeing, examining factors that influence social, emotional and cognitive development, the

effectiveness of physical interventions and opportunities for improved outcomes.

Active ageing – using physical activity to optimise health and wellbeing in older adults

Many people become more sedentary as they get older, with an increasing ageing population

there needs to be greater consideration of opportunities to improve health and wellbeing.

Increased activity in this group not only offers advantages in terms of health and wellbeing,

but aids healthy ageing, lessens the risk of trips and falls and increases the likelihood of

independent living; bringing potential benefits to the NHS and social care. This seminar will

explore the latest interventions, research and evidence demonstrating how the removal of

barriers to activity is supporting successful outcomes for older adults.

Context

In just one generation, physical activity has declined

by 20 per cent and is predicted to decline a further 15

per cent by 2030. Social and economic trends over

decades have ‘designed’ physical activity out of daily life.

Fewer people have manual jobs, technology encourages

people to sit still for long periods, an over-reliance on

cars and other transport and towns and cities which

aren’t designed to encourage activity are all contributing

factors. As a result more than 40 per cent of women and

35 per cent of men are spending more than 6 hours a

day sitting still.

Only 6 per cent of men and 4 per cent of women are

doing enough activity. The government has set a target to

increase the number of adults taking at least 150 minutes

of exercise per week while reducing the number taking

less that 30 minutes. Progress is slow which raises the

question of how these targets can be better met.

This stream will examine how to create opportunities for

people to be active in ways that fit with their everyday

lives and interests. Best practice solutions and strategies

for tackling increasingly sedentary lifestyles will be

explored; looking at the role of technology, behaviour

change and design in addressing inactivity in various

groups.

Who should attend?

Those delivering physical activity in the community, local

authorities, leisure operators, gyms, hoteliers, schools,

school activity providers, outdoor activity providers,

employers, community groups, sports clubs, local

enterprise groups, NGOs and third sector organisations.
