Elderly people often want to keep in touch with society and being active is a good way to ensure they still feel a part of their community.

It can also offer  eldery people a sense of independance.

Dr Nick Cavill states that 'As poeple get older and their bodies decline in function, physical activity helps to slow that decline. It is important that they remain active or even increase thier activity as they get older.'
