Get involved in important health and community research! A team based at the University of Glasgow are looking for people from all backgrounds and all areas of Scotland to help shape research that can influence government and local decisions on improving health and communities.
A systems science approach to 20-minute neighbourhood policy and evaluation, is an National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), Public Health Research (PHR) Programme-funded project.
They’re looking for people from all backgrounds and all areas of Scotland to help shape research that can influence government and local decisions on improving health and communities.
This study explores the impact of “living locally” — how having essential services within easy walking or cycling distance (up to a 20-minute return trip) might affect health. Researchers want to understand both the possible benefits and challenges for different groups of people. Your insights can help shape policies that affect communities across Scotland!
Living locally means being able to access daily essentials – such as fresh food,schools, healthcare, and parks – within a short walk or bike ride from home.
There are claims that this way of designing neighbourhoods can improve health for everyone. However, real-world examples are limited, and some groups might benefit more than others. Researchers need your help to explore what works and what doesn’t!
