Non-household market opening in the English water sector: A step closer to service innovation? (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Ward, S., Brown, S., Adeyeye, K., Burton, A., Shouler, M., & Tahir, S. (2018, September). Non-household market opening in the English water sector: A step closer to service innovation?. Paper presented at 5th Annual Water Efficiency Network Conference, University of Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal

Six months after non-household (nHH) wholesale/retail separation (‘market opening’) came into force (1st April 2017), have any improvements been made in service innovation for customers in the water sector in England? This paper will offer an answer... Read More about Non-household market opening in the English water sector: A step closer to service innovation?.

Challenges of researching showering routines – from the individual to the socio-material (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Simpson, K., Staddon, C., Spotswood, F., & Ward, S. (2018, September). Challenges of researching showering routines – from the individual to the socio-material. Paper presented at 5th Annual Water Efficiency Conference, University of Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal

Water supplies are under threat from climate change, population growth and modern lifestyles. Excessive demand wastes money, energy and carbon. Evidence indicates that young adults are particularly high water-users. This population segment is at a tr...

The influence of city centre environments on the affective walking experience (2018)
Thesis
Bornioli, A. The influence of city centre environments on the affective walking experience. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/861698

The current PhD thesis explores the influence of the built environment on the affective walking experience. In fact, while urbanisation trends are increasing, levels of walking in urban settings are decreasing, despite to the important health, social...
