The military effort on the Western Front from August 1914 to November 1918 required a continual supply of these animals. Several Remount Depots were set up across the UK to help maintain this supply. Shirehampton was one of the largest and over 300,000 horses passed through Shirehapmton and Avonmouth between 1914 and 1918. There are no surviving physical remains and very few very few These images are used courtesy of the Shirehampton Book of images of the Remount Depot.

It aims to show how such data can inform local policy1 and cities now and in the future. Contents page Background to the project . .3–6 Happiness pulse framework . .7–8 2016 Pilot results . 9 Part 1: Overall picture of wellbeing . 10–13 Part 2: Wellbeing resilient wards . .14–18 Next steps . .19 1 We also have a range of case studies available demonstrating the role it can play for organisations Happiness Pulse: Executive Summary 2016 page 2 Why this and why now? Increasingly, economists, politicians, academics and environmentalists are recognising that we need to improve what and how we measure and define progress. Wellbeing is emerging as the front-runner as it encompassing elements of so much of our lives – including health, education, economy, environment and justice. Whilst much work is emerging at an international or national level on this, there is a significant gap when it comes to local scale change, despite the major pressures of urbanisation globally. Happy City is leading the field in providing innovative yet practical solutions to delivering real wellbeing improvement at a city-scale. 81% of Britons believe that the Government should prioritise creating the greatest happiness, not the greatest wealth. 81% of Britons believe that the Government should prioritise creating the greatest happiness, not the greatest wealth. statistic Happiness Pulse: Executive Summary 2016 page 3 A new measure of city wellbeing Policymakers and citizens in cities around the world are beginning to see the power of measuring wellbeing for public policy.
