Trends in adolescent alcohol consumption are declining, however remain a cause for concern. Research evidences a relationship between alcohol-related mortality and socioeconomic deprivation, more disadvantaged social groups tending to experience disp...

Journal Article

Introduction

Engaging communities in actions to reduce alcohol harms has been identified as an international priority. While there exist recommendations for community engagement within alcohol licensing legislation, there is limited understanding...

Long-term health outcomes associated with an exercise referral scheme : an observational longitudinal follow-up study (2019)
Journal Article
Prior, F., Coffey, M., Robins, A., & Cook, P. (2019). Long-term health outcomes associated with an exercise referral scheme : an observational longitudinal follow-up study. Journal of Physical Activity and Health, 16(4), 288-293. https://doi.org/10.1123/jpah.2018-0442

Background: Exercise referral schemes (ERSs) support inactive adults, who have chronic health conditions, to become physically active. Uncertainty exists regarding the effectiveness of ERSs, with few studies evaluating their long-term impact. The aim...

It’s been life changing : perceived benefits of participation in the ‘Live Active’ exercise referral scheme (2018)
Journal Article
Prior, F., Coffey, M., Robins, A., & Cook, P. (2018). It’s been life changing : perceived benefits of participation in the ‘Live Active’ exercise referral scheme. Journal of Physical Activity and Health, 15(10), 223-223. https://doi.org/10.1123/jpah.2018-0535

Introduction: Exercise referral schemes (ERSs) aim to increase the physical activity levels and health outcomes of people with chronic health conditions. To date, the efficacy of ERSs has been inconclusive and largely based on quantitative evaluation...

Occupational sedentary time and associations with adiposity markers : a quantile regression analysis (2018)
Journal Article
markers : a quantile regression analysis. Journal of Physical Activity and Health, 15(10), S187. https://doi.org/10.1123/jpah.2018-0535

Background: Sedentary behaviour is associated with a number of health related outcomes, independent of physical activity; however, there is limited research that has examined the role that occupational sedentary time contributes to these associations...

Neurodevelopmental outcomes in individuals with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) with and without exposure to neglect : clinical cohort data from a national FASD diagnostic clinic (2018)
Journal Article

Disentangling the relative developmental impact of prenatal alcohol exposure from postnatal
neglect is clinically valuable for informing future service provision. In this study developmental
outcomes across groups are compared in a ‘natural experim... Read More about Neurodevelopmental outcomes in individuals with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) with and without exposure to neglect : clinical cohort data from a national FASD diagnostic clinic.

Communities in charge of alcohol (CICA) : a protocol for a stepped-wedge randomised control trial of an alcohol health champions programme (2018)
Journal Article

Background

Communities In Charge of Alcohol (CICA) takes an Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) approach to reducing alcohol harm. Through a cascade training model, supported by a designated local co-ordinator, local volunteers are trained t...

Evaluation of an exercise referral scheme in the United Kingdom : medium term outcomes (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Prior, F., Coffey, M., Robins, A., & Cook, P. (2017, November). Evaluation of an exercise referral scheme in the United Kingdom : medium term outcomes. Presented at 13th Annual Meeting and 8th Conference of HEPA Europe, Zagreb, Croatia

Introduction: Exercise referral schemes (ERS) aim to increase the physical activity (PA) levels of people with chronic health conditions. To date, the efficacy of ERS has been inconclusive due to the variable nature of scheme characteristics and eval...
