The North West Coast Academic Health Science Network (NWC AHSN) explored the issues that alcohol abuse poses to the healthcare sector at their quarterly ecosystem event held on 14th July at Select Security Stadium in Widnes.
Attended by more than 100 industry and public sector experts, businesses, and academia, the event discussed the current system for alcohol A&E attendances and the challenges faced by services.
Presenters included Professor Sir Ian Gilmore, Chairman, Liverpool Health Partners, Professor Mike Pearson, Professor of Clinical Evaluation, University of Liverpool and Ali Wheeler, Director, Drink Wise.
Dr Liz Mear, chief executive of the NWC AHSN, said: “Alcohol abuse is placing increased pressure on our hospitals and emergency services and it’s critical that we target the root of the problem, rather than attempting to come up with short-term reactive solutions. Unfortunately, it is a growing problem and alcohol-related illness currently makes up ten percent of the UK disease burden as well as being the cause of six percent of road causalities and nearly one in five road deaths.
“This event brought together experts in the field, including public sector workers, industry partners, and academics, to share information and explore new, innovative ways in which to collaboratively tackle this critical issue.”
Currently, it is estimated that alcohol-related harm in England costs the health sector over £20 billion each year. Although it is a national concern, alcohol abuse in North West remains a significant problem with 11 out of the 18 areas in the NWC AHSN region displaying higher morbidity and mortality rates compared with the national average.
The event was held as part of the NWC AHSN’s ecosystem events. Hosted every four months, the ecosystem brings together representatives from the NHS, local councils, academic organisations and industry to work together and tackle health challenges by encouraging the uptake of connected technological healthcare solutions.
Students to see how and why we conduct seagrass surveys. In addition to learning why the seagrasses in Florida are important to the marine environment, students see and touch the gear used for underwater sampling, the seagrasses we study, and even try a little seagrass survey of their own.

Have you heard the term ecosystem? Sounds synonymous with the environment, right? That has been a very interesting topic among science enthusiasts. It is a geographic location where the animals, birds, plants and other creatures coexist along with specified climatic conditions and landscapes. They all perform together to form a balance in their lives.
The ‘Ecosystem-based Adaptation South’ project seeks to help the Seychelles, Nepal and Mauritania to adapt to climate change, in part by restoring natural habitats across all types of ecosystems. In the Seychelles, on-the-ground ecological restoration will rehabilitate 29 hectares of mangrove and wetland forests, thus providing natural flood barriers.

I am absolutely delighted to let you know that my new album, 'ECOSYSTEMS' has just been published: stanislav.photography/ecosystems
It has been presented at the Club of Rome 50th Anniversary meeting, the United Nations COP24 conference on climate change, a large exhibition held at the Mathematical Institute of Oxford University and the Environment Europe Oxford Spring School in Ecological Economics and now at the United Nations World Urban Forum 2020. There are only 450 copies left so you will have to be quick: stanislav.photography/ecosystems
You are most welcome to explore my new website: stanislav.photography/ and a totally new blog: environmenteurope.wordpress.com/

Although Bell lives inside and sleeps under the covers every night, dogs can have a significant effect on an ecosystem. Over time, humans have domesticated dogs into trained house pets but at some point in time, they were all wild animals. When dogs kill other animals, such as mice or birds they are contributing to the terrestrial ecosystem. They are becoming secondary consumers.
Buffalo District Biologist Andrew Hannes showcases the Unity Island Ecosystem Restoration project, Oct. 24, 2018. The project is a Continuing Authorities (CAP) Section 204 Regional Sediment Management Project.
This was part of a Civil Works 101 presentation presented by Branch Chiefs Craig Forgette, Adam Hamm, and Diane Kozlowski.
Two Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) projects were implemented to address adaptation needs in Dar-es-Salaam and the following coastal districts: Pangani, Rufiji, Bagamoyo, Mkoani and Mijni.
