Conwy Families First Research Report Executive summary Families First is a new Welsh Government programme that aims to achieve better health and wellbeing, education and employment for families living in poverty. Each local authority is being asked to try new ways to enable everyone who supports families to work better together and so prevent families from developing more complex needs. A key element of the programme is support for families of children with disabilities. 1 Research methodology There are four strands to the research undertaken to develop Conwy’s Families First programme to allow us to ‘triangulate’ and compare the findings from the different methods. 1. Quantative data collection: identifying vulnerable families by collecting data on vulnerable families known to the following services: Revenues and benefits; Social Services; Health; Education; Youth Justice Service and HOST (homelessness service). Each service provided a list of parents, children, young people or families including names, dates of birth and postcodes so we were able to cross reference each list against the other; find out the numbers of families using multiple services and map the data to find concentrations of need in the county. Each service signed up to an Information Sharing Protocol which explained how the data was to be used and stored. 2. Consultation with professionals: We held two visioning days to inform the programme, one in February and one in October 2011. We also took ideas for the transition year projects and the initial Families First Action Plan from the work with the Core Aim Groups, and strategies developed by the partnership. Particularly the Play Strategy; Social Inclusion Strategy, Parenting Joint Commissioning Plan and Conwy Children and Young People’s Plan 2011-14. 3. Qualitative data collection: This strand focuses on the lived experiences of vulnerable families in Conwy – their perceptions of their experiences and needs (and, in some cases, the professionals working with them). This included listening to their stories, their experiences of services, and their perspectives on what might have prevented or helped their situation (qualitative interviewing). The examples and perspectives provided in this study will bring to life the quantitative data about families in Conwy, and will help to shape future provision for them. 3 Conwy Families First Research Report The study took place among 33 families and 12 professionals. The sample covered families with varying involvement from services, and with varying family circumstances, including children with disabilities. Due consideration has been given to quality and ethics, including transcribing, anonymising data, coding, and developing an analysis framework. 4. Service profiling: Investigating and mapping the services available to children, young people and families. Based on the data collected, the Families First Project Board will choose strands to be profiled, to identify duplication and gaps in service provision. For example, while the research shows a need for bereavement support services, it may be that the real need is to raise awareness

  • Aberconwy 1973-1991
    Aberconwy Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

An important principle for our work is to aim to achieve a better democratic balance within each council area so that each vote cast in an election is, so far as reasonably practicable, of the same weight as all others in the council area. The achievement of this aim, along with other measures, would be conducive to effective and convenient local government. At the beginning of this review process we have found some considerable differences between the numbers of voters to councillors not only between council areas in Wales, but also within council areas themselves. The Commission is constrained by a number of things in the way we undertake our work: The basic “building blocks” for electoral divisions are the community areas into which Wales is divided.
