Leisure can be defined as the opportunity to an individual
after completing the immediate necessities of life, when he
or she has the freedom to choose, and engage in, an experience
which is expected to be personally satisfying. Well I say!
Each individual decides his or her own leisure
needs, so leisure activities or needs vary according to personal
preferences. What one person may enjoy, another may loathe!
Leisure may be active or passive (reading) or a combination
of both.
They may take place in the home (for example
watching television, listening to music) or elsewhere (for
example, eating out, going to the pub). The list of things
that people do in their free time is almost endless. The majority
refer to leisure as sporting activities
or clubs. Why not choose

Leisure and Recreation in Wiltshire is a growing
industry where health and fitness is probably the most frequently
mentioned area. Jogging was the first of the major fitness
trends to catch on with the public. At its peak in the late
1970s, it was the most important area to help the sports
clothing companies too, designer labels were the in-thing.
