Therefore, I have identified a sport for change programme called Street games. Street games allows young people Access to sport and sporting opportunities changes lives and local communities for the better. The article also draws upon the fact that communities are not only healthier and more active but are also safer and stronger as a result. There Is also a point raised around the fact that neighbourhoods with local sporting offers great benefits for the many young people who wish to volunteer in the field. Research from the department of health has shown that people in disadvantaged communities suffer from poorer health than those living in more affluent areas. Doorstep tackles health inequality by encouraging more young people to get involved in sport and physical activity. Frank https://padlet.com/haycockd/78eevilcpmnlw9z3/wish/1817720681

(2013) “Promoting Smoke-Free Homes: A Novel Behavioral Intervention Using Real-Time Audio-Visual Feedback on Airborne Particle Levels,” PloS one, 8(8), p. 73251. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0073251.

aim of this study is to reduce the amount of smoking that occurs indoors  homes where children reside with their parents. Therefore, the target population is adults who smoke in their houses. However, a secondary target population is children because they are beneficiaries of the intervention and study.

This study focusses on behavioural risk factors in terms of the parents smoking indoors and therefore polluting young children's lungs. Therefore, the heath problems addressed are the negative affects of smoking - damage to alveoli, chronic respiratory diseases, gum cancers, lung cancer and blood circulation issues. 

Delivery - placed particle monitors in houses which fed back information to people running the intervention. Monitor tests amount of smoking particles in the houses and therefore knows how much smoking has occurred. Also held focus groups with generally low income families, with children present.
