Story

Our children are in crisis. Never before have young people been as unhealthy or as unhappy as they are now with rising numbers reporting symptoms of anxiety and depression, alongside a decline in levels of physical activity.

Less than half of children (47.2%) are active for the Chief Medical Officers recommended daily amount of 60 minutes a day. And 2.2 million children fall well below that level and are active for less than 30 minutes.

Vital funds are needed to enable the Youth Sport Trust to take urgent action to build back happier and more resilient young people and level the playing field for those most disadvantaged, through the power of play and sport.

In June an amazing Pegasystems Team will be pedalling 259 miles from London to Amsterdam to in 2 days to galvanise support and raise vital funds and awareness for the work of Youth Sport Trust.

We cannot create change alone. We are joining Youth Sport Trust's changemakers to help to reclaim play and sport in children's lives #TeamYST.
