Abstract: This Data Insight focuses on the work being carried out by the Built Environments And Child Health in WalEs and AuStralia (BEACHES) team in Swansea University. BEACHES is a joint initiative between Swansea University, the Telethon Kids Institute, and the University of Western Australia, with collaborators from Curtin University, Monash University, Queensland University of Technology, and University of Southern Denmark. It provides a summary of key Welsh legislation and policy areas on the built environment and child health. We describe the data used in the BEACHES project and present the statistical analysis to be conducted, as well as the dissemination process and engagement with stakeholders throughout the project. This Data Insight has been produced by the ADR Wales Health and Well-being research team. It provides a snapshot of informative research currently underway at ADR Wales but is not intended to provide a complete picture of the work undertaken within this field or the ADR Wales programme of work. The information presented in this Data Insight has been reviewed by ADR Wales colleagues with expertise within this thematic area and is accepted to be accurate at the point of publication. Views expressed in this Data Insight are those of the researchers and not necessarily those of ADR Wales partner organisations.
