Parenting Breastfeeding Awareness for Schools: A teaching resource for school (PAR/TM/03/A) Welsh Assembly Government (2010) *Bilingual Resource* Breastfeeding is an important public health issue with significant lifelong benefits for health. Recent surveys have shown that in Wales we have some of the lowest rates of breastfeeding in the UK and the rest of Europe. To improve this position, the Welsh Assembly Government has a developed National Programme to promote breastfeeding. The Programme acknowledges that we need a cultural shift to achieve a greater acceptance of breastfeeding and that we need to draw attention to the long-term benefits of breastfeeding to the health of the whole population. Opinions are formed early in life and so it is important that we take the opportunity to have discussions with our young people, many of whom may never have seen a baby being breastfed. The World Health Organisation’s Global Strategy on Infant and Young Child Feeding identifies the need for accurate information to be provided through schools to increase awareness of and promote positive attitudes to breastfeeding. The health benefits to babies of being breastfed include a lower risk of infections, childhood diabetes, allergies and obesity. Mothers who have breastfed also benefit from a lower risk of breast and ovarian cancer and osteoporosis. We are delighted to introduce this well-researched Resource Pack for us in schools in Wales. It will provide a useful tool to deliver these health messages and we hope that the learning young people gain from it will enable them to make fully informed decisions about breastfeeding as they become parents of the future.
Haynes Owners Workshop Manual - Baby: Conception to two years (PAR/B/15/A) Haynes / Dr. Ian Banks (2003) Taking delivery of a new baby is even more exciting than taking delivery of a new car (at least for most people). It can also be more worrying - after all if you decide you've made a mistake you can't send the baby back to the factory or trade it in for another one. And although each model comes with a lifetime guarantee, warranty claims are hard to make and impossible to enforce. Conception, pregnancy and birth can nowadays be associated with some very high-tech equipment, but underneath the monitors and scanner screens the basic process is the same as it ever was (just as the internal combustion engine itself has not changed, despite being surrounded by electronic sensors and control units). As with cars, the pre-delivery inspection, running-in and routine maintenance have to be carried out meticulously in order to avoid problems later on. The parents have to do some adjusting too, especially if they are first-time owners. This manual gives you what you would expect from Haynes: down-to-earth, step-by-step instructions, written by professionals from practical experience. No previous knowledge is assumed and no qualifications are needed, apart from a willingness to get your hands (and your clothes, and your carpet) dirty. The manual will help you to: • • • • •

Research Methods in Physical Activity (PHA/B/16/A) Jerry R. Thomas, Jack K.

The book covers all the important areas, including disease mortality, risk factors, chronic diseases, and cancer and immunity.
Perspectives on Health and Exercise (PHA/B/24/A) Palgrave Macmillan (2003) Although it is widely accepted that active people are healthier, there is still much to be understood about the relationship between health and exercise. There are many questions to be explored such as "how much?" and "what type of activity?" Also, "are there population differences?" and "what prevents people from being active?" This text considers physical activity and health from a range of perspectives, encompassing many of the traditional academic disciplines, to provide an overview of this developing field.
Physical Activity for Health and Fitness (PHA/B/12/A) Palgrave Macmillan (2003) This text for undergraduate courses also serves as a reference for student PE lecturers and for physical education and health promotion teachers. It presents medical evidence to show that a lifetime of physical activity will improve fitness and enhance the quality of life. The importance of cardiovascular and muscular fitness is emphasised. The farreaching effects of obesity are considered, and the text offers basic lessons on good nutrition and guidelines for maintaining a good body weight. It also explores connections between sedentary living and a number of major diseases and conditions.
