Participation in leisure activities has grown in importance since the industrial revolution in Great Britain, which had a significant impact on culture, not to mention social and economic conditions. Since then, working conditions have improved dramatically within the UK, while working hours have reduced, thus allowing people to set aside more time for leisure activities.   This report will discuss leisure activities as defined and categorised by National Statistics' Classification of Individual Consumption by Purpose (COICOP) system. Using this system, the market has been divided into six main categories, including audio-visual, photographic and information-processing equipment; other major durables for recreation and culture; other recreational items and equipment, gardens and pets; recreational and cultural services; newspapers books and stationery; and restaurants, cafés, etc.   According to Key Note estimates, as based on figures from National Statistics, consumer expenditure on leisure activities stood at £172.35bn in 2011 (in terms of current prices), up by 3% from the previous year. Although the recession had some effect on leisure expenditure in 2009, when it fell by 4.2%, it has since continued to grow, with the recreational and cultural services and restaurants, cafés, etc. sectors observing the strongest growth in both 2010 and 2011.
