Abstract
The distribution of community support - anything from helping the neighbours with shopping or simply someone to chat to - is patchy, leaving it difficult for public or charitable organisations to target additional support in areas where it is most needed. Working in collaboration with Public Health Wales, the Bristol-based IEU team have developed a live map which quickly highlight areas that might be more vulnerable due to an imbalance between community support and community need.
