A movement for movement: an exploratory study of primary healthcare professionals' perspectives on implementing the Royal College of General Practitioners' active practice charter initiative

CONCLUSION: This is the first evaluation of any nationwide UK-based initiative engaging GP practices in promoting PA. Acknowledging the limitations in response rate, although support exists for the RCGP APC, the evaluation highlights challenges to its implementation. Nonetheless, the wide reach of the RCGP, combined with the cited staff and patient benefits, demonstrates the significant potential of the APC initiative. Given the need to address physical inactivity nationally, further development the APC offers a possible solution, with further research required to overcome the challenges to implementation.PMID:38622556 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-024-02345-0
