Posted by news | Filed under All News Stories, Durham, GTA, Healthcare, Toronto
A new survey by the Heart and Stroke Foundation says now that school’s out children in the GTA will be missing out on physical activity. The survey showed only one-quarter of parents had completed summer activity arrangements for children. The foundation’s Director of Research Doctor Marco Di Buono says parents say cost and a lack of programs prevent them from getting their kids active. The Heart and Stroke Foundation says 26 percent of parents also say fitting regular physical activity into their schedule is a challenge.
