Neath Port Talbot Local Service Board Air Quality and Health Project Insert Practice Header airAware Port Talbot Air Quality and Health Project Do you want to be part of a new project that may help protect your health? Research shows that local air quality can have an impact on people’s health, especially those who have a chronic heart or lung condition. Monitoring of the air in Port Talbot shows that it has improved over many years. There remain however, short periods of time when air quality fails to meet normal standards. New technology has allowed us to develop an air quality information system called “airAware”. This will automatically send you a message to let you know when air quality may affect your health, and give you timely advice on actions you could take to reduce possible health effects. The system will be tested in an area of Port Talbot where the air quality is measured continuously. We would like to invite you to join this free service. You can choose to receive the health advice messages via e-mail, text (SMS) to a mobile telephone or a recorded voice message to a landline. The project will run for up to two years and we will be looking at feedback from you to see whether it would be useful to make the service more widely available. Your help would be invaluable. If you think this service might be of interest to you, please read the enclosed information on how to sign up, or if you have internet access, look at our website www.airaware.co.uk If you would like more information regarding this service, please contact the dedicated helpline based at NHS Direct Wales on 0300 100 1300. They will be happy to help.

  • 36Acorn Directory of Services Neath Port Talbot.Pdf
    FOREWORD Acorn was set up by a group of volunteers in August 2011 to promote positive mental health and improve the emotional health and wellbeing of individuals experiencing mental health issues in Neath Port Talbot. This directory has been produced because members of Acorn identified the need for information about services and support organisations to be easily available and in one place. It is estimated that one in four people will experience mental ill health at some point in their lifetime, so mental illness will, at one time or another impact on many of our lives, either directly or through family, friends or colleagues. It is important to be able to find the right help, support and guidance easily so we hope this directory will help to achieve this. We have tried to focus on local services, but where these don’t exist we have put together a section on national organisations, websites and help lines. If you would like to comment on the directory or contact members of Acorn please email: [email protected]. For further information, please contact Emma Jones on 01639 631 246.

  • Margam Radar Station
    Great Archaeological Sites in Neath Port Talbot 7. MARGAM RADAR STATION Not all archaeological sites are ancient, or even very old. Archaeology is the study of the physical remains of human activity, and that includes even things that happened very recently. The 50th anniversary of the Second World War in the 1990s saw a big upsurge of interest in finding and recording the remains of the structures that had been put in place for the defence of Britain, which were gradually becoming lost through neglect or active demolition. Comparing the official blueprints with the structures that were actually built on the ground, and linking them with the stories of the people who had known and used them, has increased our knowledge of this iconic period of our national history. Overlooking the Bristol Channel from high on the hillside above Port Talbot, alongside the Wales Coast Path inland route, stand the remains of a Chain Home Low Radar Station. The original Chain Home Radar system was developed to detect enemy aircraft, but whilst it was extremely effective at identifying aeroplanes at a distance and flying at high altitudes, it could not see them when they flew low on bombing missions. The development of Chain Home Low Radar filled in this gaps, using smaller, higher-frequency antennas which could be manoeuvred easily to pick up signals. These were initially fitted on to existing Chain Home Radar stations, but there were still gaps in reception, so separate Chain Home Low Radar stations were built to fill them in. The station at Margam is one of these, probably constructed by the army between 1941 and 1943 before the system was taken over by the RAF.

  • Air Quality in Neath Port Talbot
    air quality in Neath Port Talbot Much progress has been made in recent years across the ,PSURYLQJWKHTXDOLW\ county borough and we have achieved significant reductions in harmful emissions. RIRXUDLULQ1HDWK3RUW7DOERW Clean air is essential to our health and that of the environment. But over the last 100 years, rising industrial and energy production, the burning of fossil fuels, and the dramatic rise in traffic on our roads have all contributed to poor air quality in towns and cities across the world – and Neath Port Talbot is no exception. Much progress has been made in recent years across the county borough and we have achieved significant reductions in harmful emissions. However, there is clearly more that can be done to tackle the issue and we are committed to doing all we can to ensure people’s right to clean air. Here in Neath Port Talbot, we are keen to address this and further improve the quality of the air that we breathe. To this end, Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council has joined forces with the Environment Agency, Welsh Assembly Government, the Local Health Board and Public Health Wales to launch an Air Quality Project, which will set out a plan to improve air quality across the county borough. What do we hope to achieve through this project? The Neath Port Talbot Air Quality Project has been established to: better define areas of poor air quality and what we need to do to further improve them get a better understanding of how poor air quality can affect people’s health work with local communities to tackle air quality issues and inform them better on improvements improve the support to the most vulnerable residents affected by poor air quality We are keen to make sure that the air quality across the county will meet all necessary 7UHQGVLQ standards.
