"We are confident that this project, in addition to other partnership projects across the town will help to tackle some of the health inequalities in the Ipswich area and drive the inactivity levels in the right direction.”
The survey reports that 61.4% of adults in Suffolk are meeting physical activity guidelines set by the chief medical officer, and 63.2% are classed as "active", a slight improvement on last year.
Overall, the figures show that Suffolk is the only Active Partnership area to show a statistically significant increase in the number of active people since 2015/16, when the Active Lives survey was first produced.
