Sir Sir Andy Murray has announced a partnership with the NHS, through his role as ambassador for children's physical activity programme The Daily Mile.

The Wimbledon champion will support The Daily Mile Foundation by highlighting the benefits of an active lifestyle in schools across Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and commented 'If we can increase levels of activity as a nation, it helps improve mood, self-esteem and energy, but it will also reduce the strain on the NHS by keeping us healthier. It's especially important to instil these habits early and support and inspire young people to maintain them as they go through their teenage years'.
