A total of 6,393 telephone interviews were conducted between January 2011 and January 2012 with adults aged 16+ living in Wales. The approach followed was comparable to that used in the previous WORS survey when 6,045 interviews were undertaken between January 2008 and January 2009. Throughout this report, the focus is on statistically significant differences between sub- groups within the 2011 sample and statistically significant differences between the 2008 and 2011 results. Some figures may appear to represent a change between surveys or between the average across all respondents and a sub-group within the sample but due to sample sizes, cannot be said to be a statistically significant variation and might not be real. Key findings: Overall participation High proportions of the Welsh adult population visited the outdoors in 2011 with an average of 95% taking any visits in the last 12 months and 88% taking any visits in the 4 weeks prior to interview. This is based on recording participation in a very broad range of outdoor activities. These results are similar to the proportion of visits recorded in the 2008 survey. During 2011, variations were recorded in levels of visit taking (in either the last 4 weeks or last 12 months) amongst different age groups. In the last 12 months, 76% of those aged 75 and over had taken an outdoor visit compared to 98% of those aged 74 and under. Variations were also recorded on the basis of whether respondents had a long-term illness/disability or not (87% with, 97% without), academic qualifications (97% with, 82% without) and car access (96% with, 83% without). Similar variations were recorded in the 2008 survey. Walking was the most frequently undertaken activity in 2011, particularly in terms of visits taken in the last 4 weeks (undertaken on 84% of visits). In 2011 walking was the single main activity undertaken in 62% of visits, a lower proportion than in 2008 (66%). Around a quarter of adults (27%) visited the outdoors 'frequently' based on an average of 21 visits or more in the last 4 weeks. The frequency of participation recorded was at a similar level in both 2008 and 2011. 5 Wales Outdoor Recreation Survey 2011 Full report Those who had not taken visits in the last 12 months in 2011 were likely to mention physical health barriers including disabilities (29%), other health issues (27%) and old age (14%) as reasons for non-participation. However, these factors were mentioned less often in relation to reasons for not taking visits during the last 4 weeks, with a lack of time (31%) more likely to restrict visit taking in this shorter time period. Visits to the outdoors In terms of the potential health benefits of outdoor recreation, in just over two-thirds of outdoor visits taken in 2011, participants reported that the main activity was enough to raise their breathing rate (68%) and in over half of these cases (58%) the activity was intense enough to make the participant out of breath or to cause them to sweat. In terms of the main destinations of visits, the most visited types of place were woodland/ forests (18%), local parks (12%), hills, mountains and moorland (11%) and beaches (11%). The proportions of visits where woodland/ forests or beaches were the main destination type were higher in 2011 than in the previous survey (increasing from 14% to 18% and 7% to 11% respectively), while local parks and roadside pavements or tracks were less likely to be the main destinations visited (decreasing from 15% to 12% and 12% to 9% respectively). The majority of the visits recorded in both surveys were taken within 5 miles of their starting point, with an increase in the proportion of such visits during 2011 (73% in 2008 to 78% in 2011). A car was the main form of transport used in just over half of visits (55%), an increase from 44% in 2008 despite the higher proportion of ‘close to home’ visits. In 2011, the most frequently provided reasons for taking visits to the outdoors were health and exercise (26%), exercising a dog (25%), fresh air or to enjoy pleasant weather (16%) and pleasure or enjoyment (16%). While a similar range of responses were provided in 2008, the results are not directly comparable due to the addition of new answer options in the 2011 survey. Future participation During 2011, six in ten members of the adult population in Wales stated that they would like to visit the outdoors more often (60%), the same proportion as recorded in 2008. Around a quarter of Welsh adults (26%) would like to visit beaches more often, 17% would like to visit hills, mountains or moorland and 13% would like to visit other coastal areas or a woodland/ forest. In terms of activities, 30% of Welsh adults would like to take part in walking more often, 8% would like to take part in off-road cycling and 6% would like to do more road cycling or sightseeing. 6 Wales Outdoor Recreation Survey 2011 Full report A lack of time was the most frequently mentioned barrier to participating more often in 2011, mentioned by around a third of respondents (32%). Notably this reason was less likely to be provided as a barrier than was the case in 2008 (39%). Poor weather was also given as a reason for not participating - mentioned by 11% of adults in 2011, a lower proportion than in 2008 (20%). The higher proportion of respondents providing this as a reason in 2008 may have been influenced by the heavy flooding experienced by parts of Wales that year. 7 Wales Outdoor Recreation Survey 2011 Full report Crynodeb Gweithredol Cefndir Y cyhoeddiad hwn yw'r prif adroddiad o Arolwg 2011 o Hamdden Awyr Agored yng Nghymru a gomisiynwyd ar y cyd gan Gyngor Cefn Gwlad Cymru a Chomisiwn Coedwigaeth Cymru.

Darganfyddiadau allweddol: Cymryd rhan yn gyffredinol Roedd cyfrannau uchel o boblogaeth oedolion Cymru yn mynd allan i'r awyr agored yn 2011 gyda chyfartaledd o 95% wedi mynd allan i'r awyr agored yn y 12 mis diwethaf a 88% wedi mynd allan i'r awyr agored yn y 4 wythnos cyn y cyfweliad. Mae hyn yn seiliedig ar gofnodi cymryd rhan mewn ystod eang iawn o weithgareddau awyr agored.

  • IB Questionbank Test
    Dear IB Math Studies SL Year 2 Students, We have covered chapter 1 (number and algebra 1), chapter 2 (descriptive statistics), chapter 5 (statistical applications), chapter 7 (number and algebra 2) and chapter 9 (logic) during your first year in IB Math Studies SL. To be ready for the first day in your second year in math studies, certain concepts taught on your first year need to be reviewed. Remember that the finals exam especially the IB exams (paper 1 and 2) will cover all topics from chapters 1 through 10. To prepare you, the attached worksheet needs to be completed over the summer. It is to be turned in on the first day of class and will count as your first quiz grade. You need to solve them completely – showing your steps along the way. If just an answer is given without any work to accompany it, it will not receive credit. Any graphing needs to be done on actual graph paper (with a ruler – no freehand graphs!) Graphs not done on graph paper will receive no credit. Do NOT put multiple problems in the same graph unless told to do so. Late work loses 10% per school day it is late. Please do not hesitate to e-mail me at [email protected], if you have questions or concerns. However, please know that I will have professional development workshop for the months of June to July so I will not be able to quickly respond but you will definitely receive a reply between 24-48 hours. Have a great summer and good luck! Thanks, Mr.

  • Proposed Weekly Tours
    Proposed Weekly Tours Wonderful Waterford Ireland's oldest city is our destination on a trip that takes you from our colourful medieval past to the present. Leaving Cork at 0830, we head for one of Ireland's most beautiful towns - Lismore with its spectacular castle and its stunning architecture. Upon arriving in Waterford City, you are taken on a fun & fascinating tour of the city's Viking Triangle and learn about the city's connections with Henry the 8th and Napoleon amongst others. Of course no trip to Waterford would be complete without a visit to the world famous Waterford Crystal Experience which (after Guinness) is possibly Ireland's most famous export. Price: €49.00pp Included: Return coach trip with private guide, guided tour of Lismore and access to the museum, Viking triangle tour and access to Waterford Crystal. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cliffs of Moher & more The Cliffs of Moher are rightly one of Ireland's most famous natural attractions and on this tour we bring you off the beaten path to see some lesser known parts of Ireland. Leaving Cork at 0800, we take time to visit the Cliffs of Moher visitor centre and the Burren district. However, unlike traditional outings that return the way we came, we head south via pretty coastal villages such as Milltown Malbay, Lahinch & Kilrush, before taking the ferry to Tarbert in Co Kerry. From here we head to Foynes, home of the Irish Coffee and enjoy a visit to the incredible Foynes Flying Boat & Maritime Museum with it's full size replica of a Clipper flying boat.
