It is assumed that where you live has an impact on your health; this is often given as a reason for poor health amongst those living in less privileged surroundings. There have been a number of large-scale housing regeneration projects over the years, which aim to improve the living conditions and lifestyles of those living in low cost housing. However, these projects are long-term (often taking a decade or so to complete), making it difficult to demonstrate effects on lifestyle above those taking place over time. Effects of the built environment on physical activity levels are of particular interest as higher physical activity levels have a beneficial impact on a wide range of health outcomes. The specific provision of social and affordable housing provided by the Athletes' Village after the London 2012 Olympic Games (available from 2013) offers a unique opportunity to examine whether and how the 'built environment' affects physical activity patterns and body size in adults and children moving into the area. We will recruit a cohort of families before the Village accommodation becomes available, and follow up those that move into the Village, and compare physical activity patterns with those in families that do not move to the Village over a 2 year period. We will measure how the built environment is used in terms of walkability, ease of access, convenience of use etc., and how perceptions of the local environment influence its use, e.g. perceived levels of safety, social interactions and cohesion etc. Physical activity patterns will be assessed using accurate movement sensors, body size will be measured objectively using bio-electrical impedance. Geographical positioning systems will be employed to trace patterns of use of the local environment. While the short time scale of the intervention is unique, the findings will be generalisable, informing future design of residential developments that are destined to take place elsewhere. The key to public value of the proposal is that: (i) evidence based policy requires evidence on whether environmental changes thought to benefit residents actually do; (ii) the cost of evaluations such as that proposed is small compared to the costs of building and compared to the potential health benefit; (iii) small changes distributed widely in the population have the potential to deliver major health benefits; (iv) such benefits can only be identified by carefully designed evaluations of natural experiments. Finally we recognize the importance of disseminating our findings; we believe our proposed pathway to dissemination, including a stake holder forum including individuals identified by our extensive network of contacts, will provide this.

假定您居住的地方会影响您的健康；这通常是在居住在特权较低的环境中的人中健康状况不佳的原因。多年来，已经有许多大规模的住房再生项目，旨在改善生活中居住在低成本住房中的人们的生活条件和生活方式。但是，这些项目是长期的（通常需要十年左右的时间才能完成），因此很难表现出对生活方式的影响，而这种生活方式随着时间的流逝而超过那些发生的影响。建筑环境对体育活动水平的影响特别令人感兴趣，因为较高的体育活动水平对广泛的健康结果产生了有益的影响。在2012年伦敦奥运会之后，运动员村提供的社会和负担得起的住房的具体规定（2013年从2013年开始）提供了一个独特的机会，可以检查“建筑环境”是否以及如何影响成人和儿童进入该地区的体育锻炼模式和身体大小。在村庄住宿可用之前，我们将招募一系列家庭，并跟进那些搬进村庄的家庭，并将体育锻炼模式与在2年内不搬到村庄的家庭中的体育锻炼模式进行比较。我们将衡量如何使用步行性，易于访问性，使用等方面使用建筑环境，以及对当地环境的看法如何影响其使用，例如将使用精确的运动传感器评估体育锻炼模式的感知水平，社交互动和凝聚力。将使用生物电阻抗客观地测量体型。地理定位系统将用于追踪当地环境的使用模式。尽管干预的短时间尺度是独一无二的，但这些发现将是可以推广的，这为未来注定要在其他地方进行的住宅发展设计提供了信息。该提案的公共价值的关键是：（i）基于证据的政策需要证据证明对居民的实际变化是否有益于居民的实际变化； （ii）与建筑物的成本相比，与潜在的健康福利相比，诸如提议的评估成本很小； （iii）在人口中广泛分布的小变化有可能带来重大健康益处； （iv）只能通过对自然实验的精心设计的评估来确定此类好处。最后，我们认识到传播我们的发现的重要性；我们认为，我们提出的传播途径，包括一个利益持有人论坛，包括我们广泛的联系网络确定的个人，将提供此信息。
