  • People, Places and Policy
    People, Places and Policy Set within the context of UK devolution and constitutional change, People, Places and Policy offers important and interesting insights into ‘place-making’ and ‘locality-making’ in contemporary Wales. Combining policy research with policy-maker and stakeholder interviews at various spatial scales (local, regional, national), it examines the historical processes and working practices that have produced the complex political geography of Wales. This book looks at the economic, social and political geographies of Wales, which in the context of devolution and public service governance are hotly debated. It offers a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework for capturing the dynamics of locality-making, to go beyond the obsession with boundaries and coterminous geog- raphies expressed by policy-makers and politicians. Three localities – Heads of the Valleys (north of Cardiff), central and west coast regions (Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire and the former district of Montgomeryshire in Powys) and the A55 corridor (from Wrexham to Holyhead) – are discussed in detail to illustrate this and also reveal the geographical tensions of devolution in contemporary Wales. This book is an original statement on the making of contemporary Wales from the Wales Institute of Social and Economic Research, Data and Methods (WISERD) researchers. It deploys a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework and innovative mapping techniques to represent spatial patterns in data. This allows the timely uncovering of both unbounded and fuzzy relational policy geographies, and the more bounded administrative concerns, which come together to produce and reproduce over time Wales’ regional geography.

  • Regional Profile Ebbw Vale & Blaenau Gwent
    Regional Profile Ebbw Vale & Blaenau Gwent Content Ebbw Vale Overview of Ebbw Vale & Blaenau Economy of Ebbw Vale Gwent & Blaenau Gwent Workforce Skills Addressing Youth Unemployment Summary > > Overview of Ebbw Vale History Ebbw Vale is a town at the head of the valley formed by the Ebbw Fawr tributary of the Ebbw River in Wales. It is the largest town and the administrative centre of Blaenau Gwent county borough. Originally a rather insignificant spot in rural Monmouthshire with only about 120 inhabitants but at the end of the 18th century, Ebbw Vale—and the whole valley—was transformed by the Industrial Revolution. The Ebbw Vale Iron Works, later to become the Ebbw Vale Steelworks, opened in 1778, followed by the opening of a number of coal mines around 1790. At its height (1930s — 40s) the steel works in Ebbw Vale was the largest in Europe, although attracting very little attention from German bombers during World War II. By the 1960s around 14,500 people were employed in the works in and around Ebbw Vale, but the end of the century witnessed a massive collapse to the industry. A strike in 1980 was followed by closures and redundancies which resulted in the dismantling of many of the old plants. In 2002 only 450 were employed in the old industries, and by July of that year the final works closed. > Overview | Economy | Workforce Skills | Summary > Overview of Ebbw Vale Ebbw Vale Today The largest regeneration project in Wales is currently underway on the former Steelworks However, significant recent investment in Blaenau Gwent includes: site – including the opening of a new Learning Zone, Leisure Centre, housing, industry and The • Over £100 million for the Learning Works Scheme at The Gwent Archives.

    Name of Meeting Board Date of Meeting 28 March 2019 Agenda item: 9.2.280319 Development of a Mid and South West Wales Regional Centre of Excellence Cellular Pathology Laboratory, Regional Diagnostic Immunology Laboratory & Regional Medical Microbiology Facility at Morriston Hospital, Swansea Executive lead: Dr Quentin Sandifer, Executive Director of Public Health Services and Medical Director Author: Ms Heather Edwards, Business Planning Manager, Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board, with amendment where necessary by Dr Quentin Sandifer, Executive Director of Public Health Services and Medical Director Approval/Scrutiny Business Executive Team, 18 March 2019 route: Purpose To seek Board approval on the Strategic Outline Case (SOC) prior to submission to Welsh Government. Nationally NHS Pathology services face a number of challenges. Within the Mid and South West Wales’ region, Hywel Dda University Health Board (HDUHB), Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board (ABMUHB) and Public Health Wales NHS Trust (PHW) are struggling to manage workforce and sustainability pressures, to maintain quality and safety issues and to meet clinically driven targets. Without investment in sustainable services we cannot deliver essential improvements and fit for purpose laboratories. Investment would allow us to co-locate and develop regionalised services and to support more innovative and sustainable service models which could be future-proofed, and be flexible enough, to respond to changing demand, new technologies and innovations. In 2017 a South West Wales Regional Pathology Reconfiguration Project Board was established to draft a Strategic Outline Business Case (SOC) to address these regional challenges in line with the national direction of travel for regional pathology services.
