The National Heart Alliance (NHA) and the Irish Heart Foundation (IHF) recently launched their advocacy Position Paper Building young hearts - physical activity, young people and the physical environment.  The Paper aims to show how the physical environment can improve young people's opportunities for physical activity and that it should be a key focus of policy for Government and Local Authorities.  The NHA and IHF are advocating for a more supportive environment for the promotion of physical activity, particularly among young people.
