I am sure that you would wish to join with me in congratulating both Richard Shipway and Philippa Hudson from the School of Tourism on their papers being in the top 10 most downloaded papers in Perspectives in Public Health.
Together they have achieved 1,337 people who have looked at their work.
Richard’s paper is titled Sustainable legacies for the 2012 Olympic Games and is second in the table and Philippa’s Food safety issues and children’s lunchboxes is fourth in the table.
Well done to them! I was very proud in the meeting with Sage last week.

Cheers Dr D!
As a caveat, mine is very, very dated now though as it was written in 2006 and published in early 2007.
I know Dr Hartwell has a forthcoming ‘Olympic & Paralympic’ special issue coming up in PIPH, with several BU contributions, which is really encouraging. I look forward to reading one by my colleagues Emma Kavanagh and Lorraine Brown on Disability Sport / Paralympics. I think that will make an important contribution to knowledge.
