Scottish Household Survey Annual Report 2007 Web Tables - Culture and Sport
The Scottish Government promotes culture and sport because of the benefits each of them brings to communities and individuals. The Government aims both to widen access and participation, and to increase excellence, contributing to the Government's strategic objectives including: Expand opportunities for people in Scotland to succeed from nurture through to life long learning, ensuring higher and more widely shared achievements; Help people to sustain and improve their health, especially in disadvantaged communities, ensuring better, local and faster access to health care; Help local communities to flourish, becoming stronger, safer places to live, offering improved opportunities and a better quality of life.
For the first time in 2007, questions on culture and sport were included in the main Scottish Household Survey interview. The suite of questions cover attending cultural events and places, and participating in cultural and sports activities. As well as establishing attendance and participation, the frequency of undertaking these activities was also investigated. This chapter starts by exploring the prevalence and frequency in the last 12 months of undertaking cultural activities and of attending cultural events and places of culture. In the final section, the prevalence and frequency of participation in sport in the last four weeks is investigated.
