- What
are the barriers stopping people from doing more leisure?
- Economic factors
- Leisure is a luxury
- If you have a low disposable income, you can't afford much leisure that involves fees.
- 13.5 million people in the UK are living in poverty.
- Choice
- Choice means that your leisure choices are restricted by where you live, number of facilities or the quality of the facilities.
- some places also have lack of public transport meaning people who don't have their own method of transport can take part in leisure as much.
- Lifestyle
- lifestyle factors means things like amount of free time, family circumstance (young children), weight issues etc.
- Some people lack motivation or confidence.
- Disability
- If you have a disability, it can be very hard to participate in leisure.
- Sports such as swimming and horse riding are popular for people with disabilities.
- Equity and Diversity
- Gender: many sports are male dominated
- Ethnicity: racism may prevent joining in or religious restrictions may affect it.
- Social Class: certain sports may be restricted only to those on higher social class e.g. polo
