Since 1979, a representative sample of adult males born between 19181 and 1938, living in Caerphilly and the surrounding villages of Abertridwr, Bedwas, Machen, Senghenydd and Trethomas, have participated in the study. A wide range of health and lifestyle data have been collected throughout the study and have been the basis of over 400 publications in the medical press. A notable report was on the reductions in vascular disease, diabetes, cognitive impairment and dementia attributable to a healthy lifestyle. www.geograph.co.uk : photos of Trethomas and surrounding area Welsh Coal Mines - check out the histories of the local pits
