Well-being trajectories across the Covid-19 pandemic: A mixed method investigation
Wellness in Motion: How SWIFTT Enhances Teacher Resilience and Equitable Instruction
Health and physical educators (HPE) regularly face burnout, isolation, and stress. Post-pandemic changes exacerbated these issues, necessitating additional support for prevention and management. To help address these issues, the System of Wellness Instruction for Teachers & Teens (SWIFTT) platform was co-created with HPE professionals to provide relevant, contextual connections, resources, and supports for use by HPE professionals to enhance thei…
We don’t make best use of art in public health’: Lessons learned from co-producing a theatre performance to stimulate debate about Universal Credit
We explore the extent to which collaborations between researchers, public, policy and practice partners, and theatre makers can raise awareness of the effects of Universal Credit, challenge negative attitudes about Universal Credit claimants, and stimulate debate about the adequacy of social security in the UK
You can see when your parents are struggling: A qualitative study of children and young people's views of Universal Credit
By 2025, over eight million UK households will be receiving Universal Credit (UC). Introduced in 2013 to simplify the benefit system and improve work incentives for working age adults, UC has been criticised for causing hardship and exacerbating inequalities. There is limited research on children and young people's (CYP) views of UC, as well as its health and social impacts. In this pilot qualitative study, creative methods were used to understan…
Walk in wisdom’s path: Contributions of faith, age, and personal wisdom to ideas of cultivating wisdom
While there have been many advances in the psychology of wisdom in the last 30 years, mainstream research has yet to take into serious account the role of religion in developing wisdom. Instead, the majority of research has focused on the influence of age or life experience. To examine the relative contributions of faith, age, and personal wisdom to participants understanding of how wisdom develops, the narratives of 16 participants, 8 scoring hi…
Exploring the health and sociodemographic characteristics of people seeking advice with claiming universal credit: A cross-sectional analysis of UK citizens advice data, 2017–2021
As the rollout for UC continues, it is important to understand how changes in eligibility for UC may impact on those who need help with applying for UC. Ensuring that the advice process and application process is responsive to a range of people with different needs can help to reduce the likelihood that the process of claiming UC will exacerbate health inequalities
Children's experiences of care on walking and cycling journeys between home and school in Healthy New Towns: Reframing active school travel
The Healthy New Town programme in England set out to 'put health into place' by supporting the design and construction of healthy places to live, including by creating safe environments for active travel. To explore the impact of this approach, this study examined how children and their families experienced school journeys in two contrasting Healthy New Towns in England, one an affluent new town in the early stages of construction and the other m…
“I wouldn't survive it, as simple as that”: Syndemic vulnerability among people living with chronic non-communicable disease during the Covid-19 pandemic
The co-occurrence of COVID-19, non-communicable diseases and socioeconomic disadvantage has been identified as creating a syndemic: a state of synergistic epidemics, occurring when co-occurring health conditions interact with social conditions to amplify the burden of disease. In this study, we use the concept of illness management work to explore the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the lives of people living with, often multiple, chronic heal…
Children's experiences of the journey between home and school: A qualitative synthesis using meta-ethnography
This paper uses meta-ethnography to synthesise qualitative and ethnographic studies of children's (aged 5-13) experiences of socio-material environments on their school journey. Most of the 21 papers (18 studies) identified from the systematic search were from high-income countries and used self-report qualitative methods. Our synthesis shows children can feel vulnerable, but also negotiate journeys and manage risks, enjoy shared and solitary mob…
Community gardening and wellbeing: The understandings of organisers and their implications for gardening for health
Community gardening is increasingly framed and promoted as a way to foster healthful behaviours, as a wellbeing practice, and as a public health tool. This paper draws on semi-structured interviews with community gardening organisers (n = 9) in the North East of England, who were engaged in translating and transforming discourses and ideas about community gardening into places and practices that people can draw benefit from. Here, community garde…
Managing disruption at a distance: Unequal experiences of people living with long-term conditions during the Covid-19 pandemic
Introducing alcohol as a drug in medicine reviews with pharmacists: Findings from a co‐design workshop with patients
Using qualitative process evaluation in the development of a complex intervention to advance person-centred practice by pharmacists: The Medicines and Alcohol Consultation (MAC)
In order to effectively evaluate complex interventions, there have been calls for the further integration of qualitative methods. Qualitative process studies of brief alcohol interventions and medicines reviews are notably lacking. This article provides a grounded example through the presentation of findings from an embedded qualitative process evaluation of a multi-site, pilot cluster RCT of a new intervention: the Medicines and Alcohol Consulta…
Community pharmacy and public health: Preserving Professionalism by Extending the Pharmacy Gaze
Community pharmacy faces ongoing challenges to its economic and social standing. A concern to legitimate professional status explains the attraction of public health. Interventions currently advocated by UK State-sponsored health care seek to reconcile the autonomous 'entrepreneurial' patient with market-driven solutions. Engaging critically with recent Foucauldian sociological work on pharmacy as a conduit for disciplinary power, we explore how …
Producing co‐production: Reflections on the development of a complex intervention
BACKGROUND: Patient and public involvement and co-production are widely used, but nevertheless contested concepts in applied health research. There is much confusion about what they are, how they might be undertaken and how they relate to each other. There are distinct challenges and particular gaps in public involvement in alcohol research, especially when the study focus is on health matters other than alcohol dependence. OBJECTIVE: To explore …
How do older people normalise their drinking: An analysis of interviewee accounts
Communal therapeutic mobility in group walking: A meta-ethnography
"Group walking as a "lifeline: Understanding the place of outdoor walking groups in women's lives
Organised walking groups are increasingly widespread in the UK and elsewhere and have been shown to have many benefits for participants. They tend to attract more women than men, but little is known about how and why walking groups 'recruit' women. This is of particular importance given observed inequalities in physical activity participation by gender, in favour of men. To explore women's participation in walking groups, we conducted ethnographi…
