S4C Response to “The Future of Children’S Television Programming” 20 December 2007
S4C response to “The Future of Children’s Television Programming” 20 December 2007 S4C is pleased to be able to contribute to this process. It is particularly relevant because of our commitment to serve audiences of all ages, and co incides with our discussions for placing a greater emphasis on and offering further enhancements to our provision for younger audiences. 1. Do you have any comments on the general analysis and conclusions of the report? S4C generally agrees with the findings and conclusions of the research report into ‘The Future of Children’s Television Programming’. We regularly conduct research into the views of children and young people by making use of a Children’s Panel and a Welsh Children’s Omnibus Survey. This information is used to inform the commissioning process, and was also used in the lead up to the consultation process for launching dedicated children’s services. Recent conclusions from research using our Children’s Panel correspond with several of the conclusions in Ofcom’s discussion paper, indicating that it is older children and teenagers who feel least satisfied with what’s on television. They tend to feel that most ‘children’s programmes’ are too young for them and that their needs are not catered for. They want more programmes specifically targeted at them. The use of the research enables us to keep track of how children and young people’s views change over time. The Omnibus Survey corresponds with the views in the Ofcom report, and indicates that in Wales, BBC1 and ITV1 are the most popular channels for 7-18 year olds (Figure 96 : Top 20 programmes, children 4-15) and that the younger children in Wales tend to watch the dedicated children’s channels.

Fire Fighters, Neighbourhoods and Social Identity
Fire Fighters, Neighbourhoods and Social Identity: the relationship between the fire service and residents in Bristol Kate Matheson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol, for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Environment and Technology University of the West of England, Bristol April 2012 Acknowledgments The people and organisations who have supported this project are many and varied, and, inevitably probably too many to name. Any omissions are omissions only from this formal expression, and not from my personal gratitude. Of those who can be named, my first thanks must go to Great Western Research, who, along with Avon Fire and Rescue Service funded this research. Other institutional partners included Bristol University and the University of the West of England, which has become my second home over the last four years. My particular thanks go to Rachel and Sara, supervisors of great distinction, and the other academic staff who have had input to the project: Christine, Ron, Derrick, Stuart amongst others. Like many involved at the start of this project, many of them will have moved on by the finish. I couldn’t have asked for better office mates, and there have been innumerable fortifying conversations in office, corridor and kitchen with PhD colleagues and those in the neighbouring research centres who have proffered with great kindness their superior experience and childcare hints. There are also those without whom I wouldn’t have started this project: Dr Groves at Marlborough and Veronique in Manchester who helped me find a way to ask the right questions; Nicole at Bristol who steered my through my Masters, and Rob, the ex colleague who pointed me in this direction.
