  • Seminar Report
    Implementing the Wales Tobacco Control Action Plan: new research & best practice Report by the Bevan Foundation of a seminar held on July 2012, All Nations Centre, Cardiff Funded by Pfizer Implementing the Wales TCAP: seminar report Introduction The Welsh Government’s Tobacco Control Action Plan aims to reduce the prevalence of smoking amongst the Welsh population to 16% of the adult population by 2020. This target is extremely challenging and achieving it requires concerted action by everyone with a role in tobacco control. The Bevan Foundation is an influential, independent think tank which makes Wales a fairer place through research, conferences and events. The Foundation is concerned that smoking is a major factor in inequality in health between different socio- economic groups, and is anxious that the very high smoking prevalence amongst low-income groups, pregnant women and others are recognised and specifically addressed. The Bevan Foundation is pleased to have worked with Pfizer Ltd to investigate the question of smoking cessation amongst lower socio-economic groups in Wales. As part of that programme of work the Bevan Foundation worked with Pfizer Ltd to organise a seminar in July 2012 to look at good practice in reaching disadvantaged groups of smokers. The programme included examples from Wales and England, which provided a unique insight into the range of different, effective interventions that can be made. The response of delegates was extremely positive. In order to reach as wide an audience as possible, we have therefore produced this brief summary of the seminar. A copy of the seminar programme is in Annex 1 and biographies of the speakers are at Annex 2.

Chiaradia, Faculty of Architecture, University of Hong Kong, 4/F, Knowles Building, The University of Hong Kong, Pokfulam Road, Hong Kong [email protected] Abstract Predicting how changes to the urban environment will affect town centre vitality, mediated as pedestrian flows, is important for environmental, social and economic sustainability. This study is a longitudinal investigation of before and after urban environmental change in a town centre and its association with vitality. The case study baseline is Cardiff town centre in 2007, prior and after major changes instigated by re-configuring Cardiff public and quasi-public street layout due to implementation of the St David’s Phase 2 retail development. We present a Multivariate Hybrid Spatial Network Analysis (MHSpNA) model, which bridges the gap between existing Spatial Network Analysis models and four stage modelling techniques. Multiple theoretical flows are computed based on retail floor area (everywhere to shops, shop to shop, stations to shops and parking to shops). The calibration process determines a suitable balance of these to best match observed pedestrian flows, using generalized cross-validation to prevent overfit.
