‘We are the eyes and ears of the community’
Social prescribing, or connecting people to valued community assets, is a key component of the UK’s health system. However, social prescribing research has inconsistent aims and outcomes, and there is limited data on the views of social prescribing professionals (‘link workers’) themselves. As part of a new model of Community-Enhanced Social Prescribing, this paper presents a co-created reflective case study developed by social prescribing link w…
Craftwell
Background: There has been increasing interest in creativity, heritage and nature to improve health-related outcomes. However, limited research has examined the intersection of heritage crafting in the context of natural spaces. This study aims to explore the feasibility and acceptability of an archaeologically informed outdoor heritage crafting intervention. Methods: A mixed-methods single group before and after feasibility study was conducted. …
Green pathways to mental health
We aimed to evaluate the mental health benefits and possible mechanisms of objective and subjective treescape exposures whilst also accounting for relationships with residential area greenspace in general. Independent variables were objective measures of residential neighbourhood tree cover density and woody linear features, and a subjective measure of perceived neighbourhood treescape richness. Outcome variables were four standard measures of po…
Do green and blue spaces in the residential neighbourhood have an effect on multimorbidity? A comparative, observational study of 48,589 UK Biobank participants
Few studies have comparatively assessed the impact of different urban green and blue spaces on multimorbidity and chronic health. • Urban inland blue spaces reduced the odds of having complex multimorbidity. • Total amount of greenery increased the odds of having multimorbidity. • Parks, street trees, gardens and proximity to coast had no effect on multimorbidity. • It is not exposure to green but exposure to blue space that reduces the risk of m…
Exploring the perceptions of sedentary behaviour in community-dwelling older adults aged 75 and older
This study provided insights into older adults' reports of sedentary behaviour progressing throughout older adulthood. When compared to the wider literature, sedentary behaviour in adults aged ≥ 75 years present similarly to a younger subset of older adults with regards to the activities performed in sitting, and the barriers and facilitators to reducing their sedentary time. However, the activities performed in sitting may be performed for longe…
Green Social Prescribing
There is a strong body of evidence that points to the mental health and well‐being benefits of nature alongside a growing evidence based on the health and well‐being benefits of green social prescribing. Central to the UK government’s commitment to transform mental health services, seven successful ‘test and learn’ green social prescribing sites were identified across England, including the Humber and North Yorkshire green social prescribing prog…
Reflections and practical tips from co-producing an intervention with neurodiverse children, their families, and professional stakeholders
Transdisciplinary co-produced health research and co-designed interventions have the capacity to improve research quality and the relevance, acceptability, and accessibility of healthcare. This approach also helps researchers to address power imbalances to share decision-making with service-users and the public. However, this growing methodology is currently difficult to appraise and develop as detailed sharing of practice is limited. The ‘CO-pro…
The Lived Experience of Informal Caregivers of People Who Have Severe Mental Illness and Coexisting Long‐Term Conditions
BACKGROUND: People with severe mental illness (SMI) experience higher rates and poorer outcomes of physical long-term conditions (LTCs). The management of SMI and LTCs is highly complex and many people with SMI rely on informal carers for support, which may lead to high levels of caregiver burden, and caregiver burnout. Caregiver burnout can result in poor health outcomes for informal carers and a reduction in the quality of care they are able to…

The DIAMONDS intervention to support self-management of type 2 diabetes in people with severe mental illness
Introduction : The DIAMONDS programme aims to evaluate a novel supported diabetes self-management intervention for people with severe mental illness (the “DIAMONDS intervention”). The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of intervention delivery and data collection procedures to inform a definitive randomised controlled trial (RCT). Methods : Adults aged 18 years or over with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and severe mental illness (s…
Nature-based outdoor activities for mental and physical health
The Cost Effectiveness of Ecotherapy as a Healthcare Intervention, Separating the Wood from the Trees
Internationally, shifts to more urbanised populations, and resultant reductions in engagements with nature, have been a contributing factor to the mental health crisis facing many developed and developing countries. While the COVID-19 pandemic reinforced recent trends in many countries to give access to green spaces more weight in political decision making, nature-based activities as a form of intervention for those with mental health problems co…
The Mental Health Benefits of Purposeful Activities in Public Green Spaces in Urban and Semi-Urban Neighbourhoods
Access and exposure to public green space might be critical to health promotion and prevention of mental ill health. However, it is uncertain if differential health and mental health benefits are associated with undertaking different activities in public green space. We evaluated the health and wellbeing benefits of different activities in different locations of public green spaces in urban and semi-urban areas. We used a mixed-methods before-and…
The Push and Pull of Self-Managing Mild COPD
Health coaching is a novel population intervention to support self-management but it is untested in people with mild disease. People with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with mild dyspnea are a population excluded from supported self-management and whose illness might progress without intervention. We explored participants' experiences about how health coaching motivated behavior change. Interviews were conducted with 21 intervention and 10…
Enacting person‐centredness in integrated care
BACKGROUND: Person-centredness is important in delivering care for long-term conditions. New models of care aim to co-ordinate care through integration of health and social care which require new ways of working, often remotely from the patient. OBJECTIVE: To describe how person-centred care is enacted within multidisciplinary groups (MDGs) created as part of a new service, integrating health and social care for older people. METHODS: We followed…
A (five-)level playing field for mental health conditions
The two approaches produce significantly different utility values in people with mental health conditions. Resulting differences in cost per QALY estimates suggest that thresholds of cost-effectiveness may also need to be reviewed. Researchers and decision-makers should exercise caution when comparing or synthesising data from trials of mental health interventions using different utility estimation approaches
How does mental-physical multimorbidity express itself in lived time and space? A phenomenological analysis of encounters with depression and chronic physical illness
Characteristics of Psychological Interventions That Improve Depression in People With Coronary Heart Disease
OBJECTIVE: Despite previous intervention trials, it is unclear which psychological treatments are most effective for people with coronary heart disease (CHD). We have conducted a systematic review with meta-regression to identify the characteristics of psychological interventions that improve depression and depressive symptoms among people with CHD. METHODS: Searches of multiple electronic databases up to March 2012 were conducted, supplemented b…
A Mixed-Methods Pilot Study of the Acceptability and Effectiveness of a Brief Meditation and Mindfulness Intervention for People with Diabetes and Coronary Heart Disease
Mindfulness-based interventions can successfully target negative perseverative cognitions such as worry and thought suppression, but their acceptability and effectiveness in people with long-term conditions is uncertain. We therefore pilot tested a six-week meditation and mindfulness intervention in people (n = 40) with diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease. We used a sequential mixed-methods approach that measured change in worry and thou…
