5.0PUBLIC BENEFIT MAPS –THE EVIDENCE BASEMAP 7: POPULATION CATCHMENT WITHIN 10 KMThe Accessible Natural <strong>Green</strong>space Standards (ANGSt) model outlined in Planning Policy Guidance 17 (PPG17) requires that there shouldbe one accessible 500ha site within 10km of every household – so-called “strategic greenspace”.Map 7 illustrates the potential population catchment within 10km of any point in the region; suggesting where strategic greenspace maybe located to serve greatest numbers of the public. In addition to the major urban areas within and around the region, a range of morerural areas appear to have much potential for benefit.Supply-side research might compare this demand-oriented map with the distribution of existing accessible natural greenspaces of >500ha in size in order to ascertain optimum locations for new strategic greenspace resources such as regional parks, community forests etc.21
5.0PUBLIC BENEFIT MAPS –THE EVIDENCE BASEMAP 8: SPORTS FACILITIESAt a personal level sport provides opportunities for positive experiences involving learning, socialising, competing, conquering personalchallenges and improvements in health. At a community level sport has a positive effect on educational achievement,economic growth, community cohesion and crime. In areas which lack an adequate range and standard of sports facilities, GI cansupport a range of facilities and regenerate interest and participation in sports. Comparison with the population density/catchment mapssuggests that the current relative lack of sport facilities around <strong>North</strong>ampton, Lincoln, Nottingham and the Coalfields may affect thegreatest number of people.In the open access areas of the Peak District, along the coast and in rural areas with effective public rights of waynetworks, the natural environment may lend itself to additional sporting opportunities (e.g. cycling, watersports, rambling etc.).Further study here may also wish to focus on stimulating outdoor sports participation.22
