Cardiff After Dark

Product Information

Hanan’s younger sister Lisa also converted and their parents moved to Cardiff and enjoy celebrating Eid with their grandchildren, all of whom are Muslim. Encouraged by WHO endorsement, interest, pilot projects and implementation in other countries followed, including in Colombia in South America prompted by the country’s Attorney General, Nova Scotia in Canada prompted by the province’s chief medical officer, and Jamaica, prompted by the chairman of the country’s Violence Prevention Alliance. Facilitated by the Pan American Health Organisation, the Model is being implemented as part of Jamaica’s 2018-2030 National Plan of Action for an Integrated Response to Children and Violence. 60 Ambiguity, or mystery is another concept. Here we are talking about pictures provoking questions rather than answering them. Pictures intriguing the viewers – not understandable at first sight, but somehow keeping the attention of the viewer trying to solve their mystery. The story in the picture is not clear, so each viewer can interpret the image in a different way. Sometimes situations are ambiguous just like that by themselves, but often isolating fragments of the scene from the whole context, or excluding the “explaining factor” can lead to a mysterious image. Sgt Gavin Howard briefs his team on what they’re doing tonight, with a slideshow with some interesting facts and figures. Last month, there were 145 people treated at the ATC, which is designed to ease pressure on hospital A&E staff by treating people with minor injuries and people suffering from too much drink.

Most people say that street photography features people photographed in public places in candid, un-posed situations. In my opinion this definition is too broad as it includes portraiture, travel or editorial photography, which might have nothing to do with the genre. Thus, the definition can be refined to define proper street photography by adding just one word – a “twist”. A little twist – something clever, funny, unexpected, surprising or ambiguous. Something making you scratch your head, putting a smile on your face or simply making you say “wow, nice”. So you can also say that street photography can turn ordinary things or situations into extraordinary through the act of photographing them. A street photo does not have to be taken literally in the street – it can be shot indoors, on the beach or in the forest, at any place where photographers can take candid, unposed pictures. But what matters is that little “twist” elevating the photo to a different level. Unfortunately, these twists do not come often. So I don’t call myself a street photographer. I am just a photographer who sometimes manages to take a street photograph. I am British Muslim and happy to be. At first when you convert you are shy and embarrassed. But I even make halal pasties now. Vaseekaran Sivarajasingam, whose PhD was supervised by Jonathan Shepherd and who, since 2018 has been a clinical professor in the research group, led the development of the National Violence Surveillance Network (NVSN) of over 120 EDs in England and Wales. This was established to facilitate annual surveys of serious violence from this public health perspective; annual NVSN reports have been published since 2000. In addition to clarifying violence trends, this new measure came into its own during the COVID-19 epidemic when the face-to-face interviews which are the basis of the Crime Survey were not possible. 2020 Cardiff Model (NVSN) data showed that COVID restrictions were associated with substantial reductions in violence serious enough to result in emergency hospital treatment in England and Wales (Figure 4). 45 At the ATC she is assessed and given water. Ceri Martin, a sister, and Charlotte Pritchard, a healthcare support worker tend to her. She is joined by a friend at the ATC and they sit together, slumped in a corner, waiting for her to recover. Almost from its inception in the late 1990s, police forces, cities and regions elsewhere in the UK showed interest in the Cardiff Model.

Following public health principles, the Model is applicable to violence affecting all age groups, both genders and all environments in which it occurs. A further pressure has been to copy non-evidence based interventions being tried elsewhere, often loudly and persistently advocated. Unbridled enthusiasm and curiosity can get in the way too, for example when the collection of further data items is suggested despite such information having not been shown to be useful for violence prevention. Another important lesson was learnt here: ED receptionists can record some additional data, such as those essential to the Cardiff Model, but add further data items still and the whole data recording enterprise becomes impossible in a busy ED.

The multiagency Violence Prevention Board and the professionals associated with it constantly come up with new ideas. All need to prompt the question, are they evidence-based - have they been tried, tested and found to be effective in at least one controlled trial? If not, they are categorised as priorities for research and development where the research partner - in this case Cardiff University’s Violence Research Group – can evaluate them. This comment sparked the interest of Jonathan Shepherd, a trainee maxillofacial surgeon, in violence not as a problem for the justice system but as a public health problem. He had already observed that a few local public houses (taverns) seemed to be the locations of disproportionate numbers of assaults which resulted in emergency surgery. On moving to Bristol University as an honorary National Health Service (NHS) consultant surgeon at the Bristol Royal Infirmary, this became the subject of his PhD research (1985-1988). 1 As the theme of one of the chapters, he compared Royal Infirmary emergency department (ED) records of treatment of people in injured in violence with Avon and Somerset Police records of violent offences which took place in the same area of the city over the same period.

Dakowicz is best known for his series of photographs of Cardiff night-life titled Cardiff after Dark, [2] also the name of his later book. Photographed over four years, [8] photographs from the series have featured in magazines and been exhibited in galleries. Individual images from the series have also been used out of context and with misleading captions by the British tabloid media to support a single narrative about alcoholic excess. This tabloid practice has been criticised; for example, Jonathan Jones wrote in The Guardian that "Humour is the most obvious thing about his pictures, and their attraction lies in the way they balance grotesque abandon with poised, coolly beautiful lighting." [8] [9] Sean O'Hagan said in The Guardian that "it is not all outrageousness and vulgarity: Dakowicz also catches the sense of camaraderie and celebration in Cardiff on a Saturday night. He has an outsider's eye for telling detail, a way of showing us, in often brilliantly dramatic fashion and with a degree of gleeful humour, what is right under our noses." [1]

Hilarious, dreadful and wonderful color images of youngsters getting mashed, trolleyed, legless—you name it!— in the course of some epic nights on the lash in the Welsh city centre.

A night out in Southampton has turned into a night in A&E for one young woman who has just been admitted with a head injury. “She had been at a party and fell and hit her head. There was alcohol and drugs,” said nurse Catherine Chipande. Everyone who books a table and eats from the shortlisted traders during the weekend will also be able to cast their votes. However, it is not all outrageousness and vulgarity: Dakowicz also catches the sense of camaraderie and celebration in Cardiff on a Saturday night. He has an outsider's eye for telling detail, a way of showing us, in often brilliantly dramatic fashion and with a degree of gleeful humour, what is right under our noses. This builds towards the return of the series to TV screens on Saturday 25 November, with the first of three 60th Anniversary Specials to feature fourteenth Doctor David Tennant, who made a surprising return in last year’s The Power of the Doctor. Airing on BBC One and iPlayer, ‘The Star Beast’ finds The Doctor reunited with Donna Noble, played by Catherine Tate, for the first time in many years. The second of the specials, ‘Wild Blue Yonder’, airs on BBC One and iPlayer on Saturday 2 December, with ‘The Giggle’ completing the trio a week later. Jabar A, Fong F, Chavira M, et al (2019).

The longest running sci-fi TV show in the Universe, Doctor Who first appeared on BBC television on 23 November 1963, with William Hartnell as the first Doctor. Originally running for 26 years before coming to an end in 1989, the show would be relaunched triumphantly onto TV screens in 2005 after a 16-year hiatus - overseen by showrunners Russell T Davies and Julie Gardner and produced by BBC Wales. In celebration of the 60th anniversary of the much-loved BBC series, Doctor Who, a special after-dark water-based projection in Cardiff Bay will take audiences on the incredible journey through 60 years of the show.
