  • Seeking evidence of intersectional effects in emergency hospital readmissions of adults in England (2016–2019)

    Open Access•Jonathan Spencer, Richard Ward et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2026

    BACKGROUND: Using a large administrative dataset, we explore intersectional effects in the risk of unplanned readmission after hospital discharge in England. We test whether the size and direction of these effects aligns with societal power dynamics that underpin theories of intersectionality. METHODS: We use logistic regression to explore the risk amongst adults in England, of an unplanned readmission within 30 days of discharge from hospital be…

  • Integrating neighbourhood walkability perceptions of people living with dementia in urban design and planning in British Columbia, Canada

    Open Access•Kishore Seetharaman, Habib Chaudhury et al.•ARTICLE•Cities•2026•References: 45

    Urban design and planning play an important role in supporting the out-of-home activity participation of people living with dementia. Studies show discrepancies in planners' understanding of the perceptions, motivations, and needs of people living with dementia related to environmental support. This study explores 1) how people living with dementia perceive neighbourhood environmental support for outdoor walking, and 2) how the recommendations fo…

  • Dementia, Narrative, and Place: What Can Be Learned from the Age‐Friendly Movement

    Open Access•Richard Ward, Andrew Clark•ARTICLE•The Hastings Center Report•2025

    This essay considers policy narratives of aging and dementia, what they do, and where they lead. It is argued that a renewed policy narrative of dementia is long overdue, and the authors reflect upon the value of drawing on the established age‐friendly cities and communities movement to help guide the crafting of this new narrative. The essay develops three points: first, that efforts to promote an age‐ and latterly dementia‐friendly agenda have …

    Exploring people’s awareness of age and disease related changes (AADRC) offers unique insights into how people living with dementia form experiential knowledge. • The transition into living with dementia is marked by changing mobility-related needs and priorities, and adapting to changing walking abilities to maintain out-of-home activity. • People living with dementia become increasingly aware of physical and social risk factors in the neighbour…

  • Investigating the lived experience of LGBT+ people with dementia and their care partners: A scoping review

    Open Access•Louisa Smith, Isabelle Chesher et al.•ARTICLE•Ageing and Society•2024

    Dementia, a global health priority, poses a disproportionately high risk to lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans plus (LGBT+)/gender and sexuality diverse people. Despite this, little research has explored the lived experience of LGBT+ people with dementia or their care partners.

  • Getting lost with dementia: Encounters with the time-space of not knowing

    Open Access•Richard Ward, Kirstein Rummery et al.•ARTICLE•Health & Place•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 9

    In this paper we explore the experience and implications of getting lost with dementia. While getting lost has become culturally emblematic of dementia, speaking as it does to a widespread fear of losing our place in the world, it is marked by an overall absence of critical attention. We argue that this critical hesitancy is part of a broader unease with 'dementing' that reveals a paradox in dementia scholarship as growing emphasis on strengths-b…

  • Beyond the shrinking world: Dementia, localisation and neighbourhood

    ‘Dementia-friendly communities’ herald a shift toward the neighbourhood as a locus for the care and support of people with dementia, sparking growing interest in the geographies of dementia care and raising questions over the shifting spatial and social experience of the condition. Existing research claims that many people with dementia experience a ‘shrinking world’ whereby the boundaries to their social and physical worlds gradually constrict o…

  • Taking time: The temporal politics of dementia, care and support in the neighbourhood

    Dementia is a global health challenge and currently the focus of a coordinated international response articulated through the notion of 'dementia-friendly communities and initiatives' (DFCIs). Yet, while increasing research attention has been paid to the social and spatial dimensions to life with dementia in a neighbourhood setting, the temporalities of dementia have been largely overlooked. This article sets out different aspects of the lived ex…

  • State Authority and Convict Agency in the Paper Panopticon: The Recording of Convict Ages in Nineteenth-Century England and Australia

    Richard Ward•ARTICLE•Australian Historical Studies•2021

    The nineteenth century witnessed the creation of a ‘paper Panopticon’ designed to capture information about offenders in England, especially those who were transported to Australia. This article considers the effectiveness of this new record-keeping system and asks whether convicts had some agency within it. These questions are explored through a macroscopic analysis of the recording of convict ages in nineteenth-century England and Australia, ma…

    Open Access•Xia Li, John Keady et al.•ARTICLE•Ageing and Society•2021•Cited by: 6•References: 33

    To support people with dementia to live at home, a key national and international policy driver is to create dementia-friendly communities which draws attention to the importance of a local neighbourhood and living well with dementia. However, there is a lack of evidence about how people with dementia define and interact with their neighbourhood. This longitudinal narrative research aimed to uncover the meaning, construction and place of neighbou…

  • It's our pleasure, we count cars here’: An exploration of the ‘neighbourhood-based connections’ for people living alone with dementia

    The extent of social isolation experienced by people living with dementia who reside in the community has been well acknowledged, yet little is known about how people living alone with dementia maintain neighbourhood-based connections. The purpose of this study is to examine the experiences of people with dementia who live alone, focusing upon how they establish social networks and relationships in a neighbourhood context, and how they are suppor…

  • Initial views from the Digital Panopticon: Reconstructing Penal Outcomes in the 1790s

    Open Access•Richard Ward, Lucy Williams•ARTICLE•Law and History Review•2016•Cited by: 1•References: 2

    The criminal justice system of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century England has been likened to a corridor of connected rooms or stage sets. At each stage in the judicial process—from detection and apprehension through to trial, sentencing, and punishment—decisions were made that might remove the accused from the system entirely, or propel that person further along the process into a number of possible outcomes. That decision making (including the …

    This article seeks to understand why detailed personal information about accused criminals and convicts was recorded from the late 18th century in England, and why some of this information was converted into statistics from the 1820s, such that by 1860, extensive information about criminals’ physical characteristics and backgrounds was regularly collected and tabulated. These developments in record-keeping and statistics were mostly the result of…

    In the later eighteenth century, two schemes were introduced in Parliament for extending the practice of handing over the bodies of executed offenders to anatomists for dissection. Both measures were motivated by the needs of the field of anatomy, including the improvement of surgical skill, the development of medical teaching in the provinces, and public anatomical demonstrations. Yet both failed to pass into law due to concerns about the possib…

    During the long eighteenth century the capital code, and more specifically the so-called ‘Bloody Code’, which subjected a vast and increasing range of property crimes to the death penalty, was the centre of much popular attention and of extensive debate.1 Hangings attracted huge, ambivalent and often unruly crowds.2 Newspapers reported hangings and capital trials in detail, and a growing volume of contemporary pamphlets and parliamentary debates …

    Open Access•Richard Ward, Sarah Campbell et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Aging Studies•2014•Cited by: 13•References: 8

    Appearance and the work invested in it by and for people with dementia are a neglected issue within dementia studies. In policy and practice there exists an assumption that the role of supporting a person to manage their appearance is easily assumed by another within caring encounters, only to be subsumed within the daily task-oriented provision of care. This paper reports on interviews conducted as part of the Hair and Care project, which explor…
