The Communities within Spaces of Flows project is situated in a period of public sector spending cuts in which services are stretched and there has been a government call for a return to localism to address well-being needs (Localism Act, 2011; The Scottish Government, 2009). This idealistic desire to involve people in local decision making and community empowerment is at odds with the evolving concept of community where the place related connectivity of traditional communities has been replaced by more dispersed social networks maintained by technology and new mobility patterns. The networks of interpersonal ties that provide sociability, support, a sense of belonging and social identity are now less likely to reside in place and are less able to react to local need. At the same time there is growing recognition of the importance of integrating digital technology and health (Tinder Foundation, 2011) and a need to find new mechanisms to support an ageing population with increasing accessibility needs (Musselwhite & Haddad, 2010).The Connectivity and Conflict in Periods of Austerity project has illustrated how those with access to network capital (i.e. the resources, such as cars and mobile technology, needed to sustain and generate social capital) are best placed to exert influence on their localities while others remain excluded. This provides the grounding for this follow-up project with its revelations about middle class political activism and its effects on public services while other groups are marginalised. This poses fundamental questions about public engagement and people's ability to take control of their own well-being. This application for follow-up funding therefore explores important questions about technological interventions and their role in community well-being, fostering responsibility for place and local connectivity. The project will reflect on the fit of a combination of AHRC Connected Communities funded technologies, in addition to a collaborative travel App developed by the Sixth Sense Transport project (EPSRC Digital Economy funding, EP/J004650/1) (Davies et al. 2012), to extend and enable place based community support networks to obtain health and well-being gains. The project builds on the previous good working relationship with Wester Hailes and considers how the work of the Connected Communities groups might complement the more traditional patient/GP relationship and help produce measurable improvements in health.

流动空间内的社区项目正值公共部门支出削减、服务捉襟见肘的时期，政府呼吁回归地方主义来满足福祉需求（地方主义法案，2011 年；苏格兰政府，2009 年）。这种让人们参与当地决策和社区赋权的理想主义愿望与不断发展的社区概念相矛盾，在社区概念中，传统社区的地方相关连通性已被由技术和新的移动模式维护的更分散的社交网络所取代。提供社交、支持、归属感和社会认同的人际关系网络现在不太可能驻留在原地，也不太能够对当地的需求做出反应。与此同时，人们越来越认识到数字技术与健康相结合的重要性（Tinder 基金会，2011），并且需要找到新的机制来支持人口老龄化和日益增长的无障碍需求（Musselwhite & Haddad，2010）。紧缩时期的连通性和冲突项目说明了那些拥有网络资本（即维持和产生社会资本所需的资源，如汽车和移动技术）的人如何最有能力对其施加影响。 地区，而其他地区则被排除在外。这为后续项目奠定了基础，揭示了中产阶级政治活动及其对公共服务的影响，而其他群体则被边缘化。这对公众参与和人们控制自己福祉的能力提出了根本性问题。因此，后续资金申请探讨了有关技术干预及其在社区福祉中的作用的重要问题，培养了对地方和地方连通性的责任。该项目将反思 AHRC 互联社区资助的技术组合以及第六感交通项目（EPSRC 数字经济资助，EP/J004650/1）（Davies 等人，2012）开发的协作旅行应用程序的组合，以扩展和启用基于地方的社区支持网络，以获得健康和福祉收益。该项目建立在之前与 Wester Hailes 良好的工作关系的基础上，并考虑互联社区小组的工作如何补充更传统的患者/全科医生关系，并帮助产生可衡量的健康改善。
