From barriers to bridges
Gathering consistent and meaningful health intervention evaluation data from structurally disadvantaged communities presents significant challenges. Traditional external evaluation approaches often fail to capture authentic experiences due to linguistic barriers, cultural differences, and mistrust of formal systems. This study presents a systematic exploration of community researcher (CR) approaches across three diverse organisational contexts, e…
How Is Extra Care Housing for Older People Defined in the UK? Observations From a Scoping Review
Background Extra care housing is a model of housing for older people where residents live in self‐contained accommodation with flexible care and support available 24/7. Ageing populations, seen globally and in the UK, mean increasing demand for this type of housing which may help people live independently for longer. However, schemes vary widely (e.g. in size and facilities). Objectives To explore whether and how extra care housing was defined by…
Moving from features to functions
Contact with nature can contribute to health and wellbeing, but knowledge gaps persist regarding the environmental characteristics that promote these benefits. Understanding and maximising these benefits is particularly important in urban areas, where opportunities for such contact is limited. At the same time, we are facing climate and ecological crises which require policy and practice to support ecosystem functioning. Policies are increasingly…
Outdoor health intervention for refugees, migrants, and asylum-seekers
Pathways linking biodiversity to human health
Biodiversity is a cornerstone of human health and well-being. However, while evidence of the contributions of nature to human health is rapidly building, research into how biodiversity relates to human health remains limited in important respects. In particular, a better mechanistic understanding of the range of pathways through which biodiversity can influence human health is needed. These pathways relate to both psychological and social process…
The representation of future generations in newspaper coverage of climate change
Climate change will rob future generations—today's children and those yet to be born—of the stable climate that previous generations have enjoyed. The article explores how future generations are represented in climate change coverage in the UK national press. We examine the ‘popular’ (Mail, Mirror) and ‘quality’ (Guardian, Telegraph) press from 2010 to March 2019. We found that little attention was given to future generations; young people rarely…
Spending time in the garden is positively associated with health and wellbeing
Older people's experiences of everyday travel in the urban environment
Compared to younger age groups, older people spend more time in their locality and rely more heavily on its pedestrian and public transport infrastructure. Qualitative studies provide unique insight into people's experiences. We conducted a qualitative evidence synthesis of United Kingdom-based studies of older people's experiences of travelling in the urban environment. We searched health, social science, age-related and transport-related databa…
Integrative policy development for healthier people and ecosystems
There is growing evidence of the inter‐relationships between ecosystems and public health. This creates opportunities for the development of cross‐sectoral policies and interventions that provide dual benefits to public health and to the natural environment. These benefits are increasingly articulated in strategy documents at national and regional level, yet implementation of integrative policies on the ground remains limited and fragmented. Here…
Identifying future research directions for biodiversity, ecosystem services and sustainability
n\tWe aimed to identify priority research questions in the field of biodiversity, ecosystem services and sustainability (BESS), based on a workshop held during the NRG BESS Conference for Early Career Researchers on BESS, and to compare these to existing horizon scanning exercises. This work highlights the need for improved data availability through collaboration and knowledge exchange, which, in turn, can support the integrated valuation and sus…
The importance of nature in mediating social and psychological benefits associated with visits to freshwater blue space
There is increasing appreciation of the benefits associated with exposure to natural environments. However, most of the evidence relates to green space with much less on blue space. Drawing on data from a British survey of adults, we describe the characteristics of visits to blue space and investigate whether the benefits reported in studies of green space – physical activity, social interaction, and psychological benefits – are evident with resp…
