This briefing has been developed to support decisions to prioritise areas of work for the
Healthy Weight Partnership (HWP). The purpose of this briefing is to outline key nationally
available data to help set the context for local needs and inequalities relating specifically
to physical activity. It collates analysis at an East Sussex level for a range of publicly
available data and, where possible, this information has been benchmarked nationally.
Where local data on health inequalities is not available, national evidence is presented.
Data are drawn from many sources and vary by time period, population and presentation of
values, so care should be taken with interpretation – the data is meant as guidance to
complement local knowledge and expertise. Where possible the relationships to national or
local benchmarks are marked using the following key: amber – similar to benchmark, green
– significantly better than benchmark (95% confidence), red – significantly worse than
benchmark (95% confidence).
