- Spatial Planning Joint Needs Assessment
-
Our health is linked to our environment in many ways and recent guidance recognises the important role that spatial planning can have on health and wellbeing. This JSNA provides evidence of the links between, and the opportunities from, incorporating public health into planning. It is structured around four themes; green space, transport, healthy homes and healthy neighbourhoods.
- Nepali Needs Assessment 2010
-
This report was created because of the growth of the Nepali community within Rushmoor due to changes in the law which allowed ex Gurkhas to settle in the UK. Rushmoor has a military base in Aldershot and this military connection has meant that significant migration has occurred to this area. The population of Rushmoor in the 2011 Census was 93,800, with 6,131 people (6.5%) identifying themselves as Nepalese (includes Gurkha). Despite the significant size of this community little was known about its specific health needs – hence the requirement for this needs assessment.
- Green Space Planning 2018
-
This report provides a brief state of the evidence for the association of green space and health, with a particular focus on British studies. It also briefly investigates the research methods used to define green spaces and the importance of considering accessibility and quality of green space for health outcomes. A summary of practical guidelines for green space planning is also included.
