In order to address the increasing pressure on the NHS, she urged Government to focus on preventative measures to help ease the burden of preventable diseases on the health service.<\/p>\n<p>She also reiterated the recommendations ukactive has made over the past two years on key societal challenges. Touching on the children\u2019s activity agenda and the need to keep older adults active, she also renewed the call for a \u00a31bn investment in wellness hubs to serve as both the preventative frontline for the NHS and as focal points for local communities.<\/p>\n<p>Tanni concluded by emphasising the importance of local partnerships, calling for a \u201cnew alliance\u201d between local government and the physical activity sector to address health inequalities at every level.
