INTRODUCTION
Community assessment is a procedure which is useful in determining the strong aspects,
requirements, needs and challenges of the particular community. Its assets defines the skills,
abilities and talents of individuals and resources that are contributed by local institutions to
community. This need is considered as the systematic procedure in order to identify and
recognise the requirements and desirable conditions for the basic requirements. In order to
develop a community it need identification of community issues and attitudes and also assess the
social and economic conditions of community (Vieira and et. al., 2019). To develop a
community, it is required to collect information as it collected with the help of two sources that
are primary and secondary which is useful in gathering appropriate information.
To carry forward this report, Bridgend is considered which is a country or Borough in
Wales and for this, specific community is considered which is “Morgan” as it is Celtic in origin,
from the ancient times of Wales. As this report is going to cover the different aspects about this
profile like identification of demographic health needs of community and define 2 key issues of
interest by discussing social determinants of health model. Moreover, it also discuss the potential
impact of Brexit or climate change on the health conditions of specific community. Lastly, it also
identify the ways to reduce the impact of Brexit or climate change on that community.
MAIN BODY
Identification of demographic health needs of Morgans
By considering the population of Bridgend, Wales and examining their economic
characteristics, Morgan community is broadly discussed as it describes an area which is useful in
understanding the trends that are related with growth, income, demographic area and quality
needs of population. Health needs are the factor that impacts the overall working conditions and
demographic areas and their concerning change to determine the kinds of health and social
services which is required by community (Xu and et. al., 2019). People of Morgan community in
early middle age belongs from priests and other who are literate are accountable for mentioning
suitable data in official documents. For this, major health issues in the Morgan community on
the basis of demographic area is discussed as underneath:
Anxiety and depression: Depression and anxiety occurs at the same stage or time and
determined that around 45 per cent of the population suffers from this as it describes the mental
1

conditions and health of people. As it describes the major disorder among people and it generates
within the time period of 12-25 that is termed as the depression age within the youth of Morgans
community. Moreover, each factor has their cause and symptoms which include clinical
treatment with it and also manages each aspect.
 While suffering from this, Morgans people feel down and always concerned with their
feelings as its physical symptoms include decreased energy, concentration problem, pain,
aches, fluctuation in weight, problems in sleeping and so on (Fitzsimmons and Sampson,
2019).
 In relation with this, Morgans people need to take prominent measures like expressing
their feelings, take proper diagnosis and so on because at this, suicide is the only option
that comes in the mind of people.
Diabetes: It is quite common disease which occurs because of the fluctuation of blood
glucose or when the blood sugar gets high. Here, glucose is considered as the main source of
energy which impacts the hormones and insulin. As having more glucose in body leads to
develop health related problems. Moreover, diabetes is of two types juvenile in which body fails
to produce insulin and type 2 diabetes describes that body uses insulin in which body does not
respond in an effective manner.
 In Morgan community people, its symptoms in men and women both are different as in
men poor muscle strength, erectile dysfunction and decreased sex drive. Meanwhile in
women, it include dry skin, yeast infections and urinary tract infections and it can occur
at any age group because of the lack of insulin and glucose within the body (McCredie
and Morey, 2019).
 Morgan people need to proper treatment of insulin and manage their diet and exercise
that help their people to maintain and overcome their disease.
 By examining the Morgan community people, it is described that juvenile diabetes is
most commonly seen among themselves.
Blood pressure: It occurs because of hypertension as when blood pressure increases at
unhealthy level. For this, measurement of blood pressure is important as it helps in knowing that
blood is passing through blood vessels and appropriate amount of blood meets the heart and
manages its pumping rate.
2

 In Morgan people, Blood pressure is in their genes as its symptoms include damage of
blood vessels and also impacts the sense organs such as brain, heart, eyes etc.
 Morgan people take its proper treatment and maintain it with the help of medicines,
meditation and healthy lifestyle as it leads to impact the health issues considering the
heart attack and stroke.
It arises because of hypertension which is silent condition and many of times people
would not experience any symptoms as it takes years to reach at this level. It start happening
from the age of 14 and does not have any end period and early detection of Blood pressure is
important otherwise it can majorly damage the health of individuals (Cañavate, 2019).
Dementia: It is not a single disease as it include many disease it with such as heart
disease, alzheimer's, abnormal brain conditions and so on. It also impacts the behaviour, feelings
and relationship of people. In terms of Morgan people it is described as:
 It arises among Morgan people after the age of 55 as these changes directly impacts the
thinking skills by decreasing it and also termed as the cognitive abilities as it impairs the
daily routine of Morgan community people.
 Its symptoms include problems with short term memory and in general routine Morgan
people overcoming this by keeping track of their things such as remembering things by
making notes.
 Meanwhile, Morgan people are more attentive regarding this issue and immediately take
treatment with doctor to make their life better (Carley and Bustelo, 2019).
Identification of 2 key issues or area of interest by considering social determinants of health
model
It require through understanding regarding the impact of community which include
values of community, issues and other attributes. By comparing it with the interest of other area
suitable framework is opted in order to understand the arising issues and attitude of Morgan
community. This activity provide solid understanding regarding the determination of issues and
attitudes. To describe key issues in prominent area, two health factors that are discussed in above
part are take that are Diabetes and Blood pressure and to determine this, CSDH conceptual
framework is used which is useful in describing the impact of socio-economic factor on these
health factors. As this framework is useful in describing the concept of health system as a social
3

determinant of health and its role is to analyse the issues that are related with access and also
make difference in their exposure. For this, two major key issues are discussed as under:
Diabetes: It is considered as the major problem in Morgan community people as it arises
because of lack of insulin in their body. Data of health in Wales is developed by many bodies
with different purpose as this health issues impacts all the age groups of Morgan people and
significantly impairs the quality of life and its consequences that can be fatal (Liu-Ambrose, and
et. al., 2019). As it as a chronic disease that occurs because of some risk factors such as includes
obesity and high level of cholesterol. For this, by determining the chronic conditions of Morgan
people in Wales it majorly seen in the rich class people and reason behind this is their income,
occupation and education as all of these are the prominent factor which occur disease in them.
Most of the people has suitable amount of income which depends on their working activities and
occupation. It gets unbalance because of their living standard and diet criteria as it leads to
destroy their diet conditions (Suh and Kim, 2019). For this, promoting healthy lifestyle among
Morgan people of Wales is significant as it is the responsibility of government to improve their
health as unhealthy individual does not maintain their work life in impacts the socio-economic
and political context which includes governance, external policies, social factors and public
policies which describe the social class, gender and racism and all this factor tends to generate
due to their income as people has healthy income can spend more money on their lifestyle.

Blood Pressure: This disease is seen in the every class people that include rich, middle
and poor as its symptoms include hypertension and fluctuation of sugar level. It can be arrive at
any stage after 14 years and nowadays it becomes more common in people. To improve health
conditions and lifestyles of people government take suitable responsibility and also provide
prominent links of resources to promote healthy and positive health for their people. In Morgan
community, health concerning challenges are developed in order to contribute towards the health
conditions and challenges. It describe those areas and their living standard in which Morgan
people describe their working and living standard (Zhang and et. al., 2019). All of these factors
depends on their income level which relies on their occupation as to enhance the living and
working conditions and availability of food depends on their occupation which is developed due
to their education because if people are not literate or educated then it influences their working
criteria or income. Most of the time, it is noticed that biological factors are the main reason
behind the occurring of this disease as it leads to develop because of genes.
To describe it in specific manner, CSDH conceptual framework is considered that carry
out different factors and stages as these are mentioned below:
Structural determinants/social determinants of health inequities: Socio-economic and Political Context: This component describe various factors by
considering governance, external economic policies, social, public policies and other
concerning cultural policies. It describes that Morgan people has major issues in diabetes
5

and blood pressure as it depicts that political, social and economical conditions of Wales
depicts that these health issues arises from their genes and does not gets reduce after their
migration because it is in their genes. Socio-economic Position: This component depicts that diabetes and blood pressure
becomes the major factor that influences the economic position of Wales which is
discussed as above that describes the prominent cause and problems that are related with
their health (Becker and et. al., 2019). This factor carry forward the discussion on the
basis of social class, gender and ethnicity and these are developed by considering the
major factors of development like income, occupation and education and all of these are
interdependent. As the income of Morgan people relies on their business for instance, if
they do run business then it tends to impact their health conditions and also develop
tension in their mind regarding their business issues and it tends to fluctuate their blood
pressure.
Intermediary determinants/Social determinants of health: Material circumstances: This factors are considered under the intermediary determinants
of social factors that depicts the suitable health conditions of Morgan people. It depicts
many factors that influences their circumstances like availability of general resources that
are useful in daily routine and availability of food and concerning services (Lu and et. al.,
2020). Behaviours and Biological Factors: It depicts the prominent behaviour of individuals
which describes the behavioural conditions and biological factors as above discussed
disease are majorly arises because of genetics and hereditary problems as it influences the
health system of Morgan community people and impacts their health and well being
conditions.
 Psychosocial factors: These factors include the social support, disruption, working
environment, status of people and social integration of people. As it defines the general
factors at the societal level that is related with social structure and procedure of encroach
on the individual. In Morgan community people, it describes the individual level process
and also impacts the mental states. These factors influences the physical body that is
influenced by social factors that impacts the mediate the psychosocial understanding to
Morgan people.

Critically discuss the potential impact of Brexit or climate change for health inequalities on that
community
This section of report describes the social and health inequalities that impacts the health
conditions and climate change of Morgan people and also opt adaption and consider health care
provision (Achmon and et. al., 2019). It generates the special issues that were interpreted by
using social justice for undertaking the health outcomes regarding the change of climate. Above
discussed diseases can also be influences with the exposure of heat and light, food safety risk,
disrupts the access and functions of health services and concerning facilities as these are the
factors that are influenced by Brexit. For this, suitable strategies are opted that are based on the
individual preparedness, behaviour and action because of inequalities in their health and also
offer broad public information campaigns regarding their financial support for adaptive
measures. For this, major factors are discussed as underneath:
Air pollution: Pollution in air is arises because of nitrogen dioxide as it is associated with
increasing all the concerning cause of mortality and provide exposure to evaluate the suitable
concentration of ozone over the short time period which is concerned with improving their
respiratory system and also take preventive measures to reduce the chances of occurring risk
7

regarding their health problems. For this context, nitrogen particularly visible in those cities that
are majorly transport and also deprived in poor manner. Pollution influences the diabetic people
as it disbalance their health conditions as their insulin gets fluctuate.
Moreover, in UK with the impact of Brexit as it approaches the forthcoming conditions
of UK in terms of trading with other nations and also maintain their stability. Moreover, their
expression is related with their diet of UK which is approximately 35 per cent of food which is
imported from European Union and around 14 per cent form non European Union by considering
the trade deals that is discussed in European Union (Nelemans and et. al., 2019). This term is
specifically related with the exact impact on their future living standard and dietary chart.
Morgan community people of Bridgend are considered as the more developed country but
despite from this they are also influenced by the impact of Brexit that is concerned with the
success and growth to develop their business as it is worked under their concerning business
conditions. Thus, it impacts the working conditions and living standard of people which is
majorly imported by European Union and non European Union as this society people are more
concerned with the consumption of food services that are mainly influenced over the increment
conditions of issues over consuming the external dietary chart as by undertaking the increasing
problem which is Blood pressure and diabetes and for this consumption of external food is not
good for their health that leads to drastically impact their health conditions of Morgan people.
Because of high career pressure are also make sure in an effective manner by considering the
business procedure that create high mental pressure and also going towards the consumption of
unhygienic food.
Thus, it is quite easy that Brexit impacts the whole community of Morgan in negative
manner as it is pretty much required by public bodies to spread awareness about the sense of
control to achieve the competitive advantage regarding improvising the living standard of
bringing awareness regarding the excessive consumption of unhealthy food (Karalunas and et.
al., 2019). Moreover, it is required to run this community in order to start physical actions so that
they could efficiently run their business functions in an appropriate manner in much effective
way.
Identify the measures that reduces the impact of Brexit or climate change
By considering the membership of European Union, that is currently transformed the UK
from being polluted and protecting them from landfills problems as it directly impacts the health
8

problems of Morgan people. Moreover, climate conditions and Brexit impacts the climate related
disaster impacts the security conditions of society. For this, human security relies on the range of
interdependent factors like economic and livelihood factors and also consider the cultural
dimensions and geopolitical rivalry factors. In order to overcome the impact of these issues,
Morgan people take preventive measures to enhance their working conditions and living
standards (Cambon and et. al., 2020). By determining their migration rate, it is analysed that
Morgan people currently migrate from Wales to England and United States. For this, major
factors such as climate change also eliminates the competency of country in order to attain the
sustainability development and prominent goals and objectives. Usually, health conditions are
concerned with the changing conditions of climate that is divided into the impacts of cost and
adaptation cost.
CONCLUSION
From the preceding discussion, it is concluded that assessment of community and
determination of their history is important to know their overall health issues and conditions to
take preventive measures for this and keep other people protected. For this, some social
determinants are identified with the help of health models which describe suitable problems in
specific area. Furthermore, it describes and discuss the potential impact of Brexit or changes
happen in the climate conditions of their residential area. In order to eliminate the impact of
climate change and
