  • Estimated Dementia Diagnostic Rate Across Bradford District
    Public Health: Knowledge and Intelligence Date produced: 13/12/2019 Data source: GP population 2019 Dementia diagnostic rates across Bradford District Summary This intelligence report updates dementia diagnostic rates by practice and community partnerships for Bradford District. Data is displayed as a diagnostic rate (%), which is the observed number of dementia patients divided by the expected number (based on national prevalence rates). The % of total registered patients that have a dementia diagnosis is also displayed for Bradford City, Bradford District and AWC CCGs separately. Practices that have statistically significantly lower dementia diagnosis rates than both England and their CCG are: Bradford District CCG: City CCG: Sunnybank Little Horton Lane Dr Gilkar Thornton & Denholme Wibsey & Queensbury Wilsden Airedale, Wharfedale, Craven CCG Addingham surgery Oakworth Medical Practice As this analysis is based on a statistical model, possible reasons for low diagnosis rates may be over estimation of expected dementia patients or local service factors (e.g. additional care home patients registered with a practice).

SUMMARY 1.1. This report details the allocation of the capital highway maintenance budget to the Non-Classified road network and Surface Dressing sites for 2018/19 in Bradford West. 2.0. BACKGROUND 2.1. The capital highway maintenance element of the Local Transport Plan for all classification of road for Bradford in 2018/19 is £4,951,000. 2.2. It is essential that local highway maintenance continues to be prioritised, reflecting the economic and social importance to communities and the need to safeguard the largest single local public asset. As such the allocation is to be prioritised on those roads in most need of maintenance. 2.3. The varying types and classifications of roads are routinely monitored by standardised survey equipment. The sites chosen for inclusion are those that have been shown to be in the most need of repair on the most recent survey. This is supplemented by those roads that are known to have suffered increased deterioration due to the ageing process and recent winter weather.

  • Photo Cathryn Bell
    PhotoPhoto Cathryn Cathryn Bell Bell 2 There is little doubt that this February has been a remarkable month; the weather has been kind and it has ended with a spring like weekend, the like of which I don’t recall so early in the year. Yes, we have had mild winters, many times over the last twenty years, but not a prolonged warm spell more suited to the Canary Islands. The population of Idle and Thackley have taken full advantage filling the shops and sitting in the sun outside the pubs and clubs. One thing I did notice during the last week of the month was my neighbours sitting outside, in the garden, late in the evening, admittedly they had a fire pit going full blast. But February? Thackley’s licensed trade appears to have taken on a new life too over the last month or so with work starting on the refurbishment of the Great Northern, although we do not know yet what the actual plans are. There has also been investment at the Commercial Inn—see this issue—where they have altered the function facility, making it into one room twice as big, with new carpets and decoration. At the junction of Craghill Road and Thackley Road, planning permission has also just been granted for a micro-pub in the old grocers shop on the corner, formerly run by Mr Teddy Eva. Gardeners are getting ready for the new season, although it is still a little early for planting, with the danger of frosts for another couple of months yet, but it does give us a chance to get those building jobs done, which normally get held up by a cold spell.

    Keighley Community Led Local Development KEIGHLEY COMMUNITY LED LOCAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY 2017-2022 1. INTRODUCTION This Local Development Strategy (LDS) has been developed by the Keighley Community Led Local Development (CLLD) Local Action Group (LAG), and validated by businesses, residents and other stakeholders within the CLLD area. The LAG has agreed the overall vision for the CLLD area as: Keighley CLLD area, by 2022, will be an enterprising, aspirational and positive place, where: our people are personally accountable and able to develop resilience and self-esteem, increasing well-being; our businesses are innovative and productive, and supported to set up and grow; diversity is respected, understood and appreciated; there is connectivity, integration, networking, amongst businesses and residents; pathways are put into place to help us to upskill and ‘grow our own’; and encourage and support sustainable career progression; and the environment is clean, green and attractive. This strategy sets out the needs of the Keighley CLLD area and our proposed approach to investing £6m (£1.5m ESF, £1.5m ERDF, £2.1m Public resources and £0.9m private resources) to address these needs, capitalising on the strengths and opportunities in the area, whilst reducing the weaknesses and threats impacting on the economy, businesses and local population, thereby contributing to the achievement of the vision. 2. KEIGHLEY CLLD AREA The Keighley CLLD area is nine miles from Bradford City Centre and falls in the Bradford Metropolitan District Council local authority area, within Leeds City Region. Keighley is Bradford District’s largest town after the city centre. It became part of Bradford Metropolitan District in 1974.
