  • Health Behaviours District Summary for Burnley
    Burnley summary This local summary forms part of the joint strategic needs assessment for health behaviours in Lancashire.1 It provides an overview of the health behaviours questionnaire and the secondary data analysis, providing a bespoke view of health behaviours in the district. The intention is for this report to be used to aid commissioning decisions in local areas in conjunction with the recommendations of the health behaviours JSNA. For a wide range of data, intelligence and analysis, and summary reports for other local authorities please see the health behaviours webpage. Please direct all queries to [email protected] The questionnaire covered a wide range of topics around health behaviours and incorporated the 'healthy foundations' segmentation tool. Segmentation tools can be used to inform bespoke local health improvement activities. They provide insight for social marketing around health policies, campaigns and targeted interventions. This allows us to identify the motivation levels and the potential for behaviour change among In Burnley more respondents are classed as the different groups and can be used when 'balanced compensators', and 'live for todays', although fewer are 'health-conscious considering the recommendations below in realists' when compared to Lancashire. There relation to the health status, lifestyle behaviours are similar rates for 'hedonistic immortals', and wellbeing of Burnley's residents. and 'unconfident fatalists'. Recommendations for Burnley Strategies which address specific health behaviours may have a positive effect on improving health overall within the district. Whilst there are distinct recommendations for Burnley based on the questionnaire and secondary data analysis, there are overarching priorities and recommendations.

  • Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’S Cotton Frontier C.1890-1950
    Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’s Cotton Frontier c.1890-1950 By Jack Southern A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of a PhD, at the University of Central Lancashire April 2016 1 i University of Central Lancashire STUDENT DECLARATION FORM I declare that whilst being registered as a candidate of the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another aware of the University or other academic or professional institution. I declare that no material contained in this thesis has been used for any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ________________________________________________ Type of Award: Doctor of Philosophy School: Education and Social Sciences ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the evolution of identity and community within north east Lancashire during a period when the area gained regional and national prominence through its involvement in the cotton industry. It examines how the overarching shared culture of the area could evolve under altering economic conditions, and how expressions of identity fluctuated through the cotton industry’s peak and decline. In effect, it explores how local populations could shape and be shaped by the cotton industry. By focusing on a compact area with diverse settlements, this thesis contributes to the wider understanding of what it was to live in an area dominated by a single industry. The complex legacy that the cotton industry’s decline has had is explored through a range of settlement types, from large town to small village.

Background: As a Lead Local Flood Authority, Lancashire County Council has a role in coordinating flood risk activities and ensuring the free flow of communication and collaborative works. In order to help achieve this, Lancashire County Council and relevant risk management authorities meet regularly to discuss local flooding issues and to identify opportunities for managing future flood risks. This has worked very well up to now and has allowed risk management authorities to work closely together to tackle often complex and challenging situations. However following the significant flooding that hit Lancashire in December 2015, it became evident that improvements could be made to the way in which these messages get communicated to affected communities. As such, Lancashire County Council has now developed a series of district level reports which aim to provide affected communities with information about what relevant risk management authorities are doing in their areas to help manage the risk of flooding from a variety of sources.
