31 March 2011
Jeremy Hunt, the Olympics Secretary, has hinted that Sport England, a grassroots funding body which will link up with UK Sport after the Games, will concentrate its efforts on getting youngsters into the habit of exercise.
While Labour was still in power the administration pledged to use the Games as a means of inspiring a million people to play sport more than three times a week, while a second pledge tried to get a million more people doing general physical activity - including household tasks like decorating.
