- This paper reports on the implications of adopting a novel approach to measuring access to services as an alternative to the existing methods used to calculate the ‘Access to Services’ domain of the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (WIMD), the official measure of deprivation used to allocate programme funding and aid Government policy in Wales. Early versions were presented at Association of American Geographers Annual Conference 2017 and GISRUK 2018. The interdisciplinary research was incorporated into a Welsh Government consultation document prepared in the lead-up to the release of the December 2019 version of the Index of Multiple Deprivation, (https://beta.gov.wales/proposed-indicators-welsh-index-multiple-deprivation-2019).
