  • Hot Food Takeaways – Doncaster
    Hot food takeaways: An evidence base review for Doncaster Clare Henry, Public Health Specialist Caroline Temperton, Public Health Co-ordinator Emma Wilson, Public Health Officer Doncaster Council Updated June 2019 2 Hot Food Takeaways – Doncaster 1. Introduction Background The purpose of this report is to provide an evidence base for the hot food takeaway policy in the emerging Local Plan. This report summarises the policy context and evidence which has informed the council’s decision to regulate takeaways through the planning system. It forms part of Doncaster Council’s wider strategic approach in promoting a healthy environment and addressing health concerns of the population, particularly with respect to obesity, in the borough. Over recent years, a whole systems approach to obesity and the benefits of healthy eating have attracted attention nationally and have highlighted the role that local authorities have in seeking positive solutions. This is outlined in the Healthy People, Healthy Places briefing Obesity and the Environment: Regulating the Growth of Fast Food Outlets (PHE 2014) where local authorities are urged to utilise the range of legislation and policy at their disposal to create places where people are supported to maintain a healthy weight. The existing planning policy on hot food takeaways is a Unitary Development Plan Policy (SH14). This existing policy focuses on managing environmental impacts such as noise, traffic, odour and refuse and protecting the amenity of nearby residents. It also has regard to the number and location of existing hot food takeaways and the cumulative effect of problems created as such. This and other development plan policies do not consider the health impacts associated with restaurants, drinking establishments and hot food takeaways.

    LONDON Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | London | 2019 0 For decades London has led the way in terms of innovation, fashion and retail trends. It is the focal location for new retailers seeking representation in the United Kingdom. London plays a key role on the regional, national and international stage. It is a top target destination for international retailers, and has attracted a greater number of international brands than any other city globally. Demand among international retailers remains strong with high profile deals by the likes of Microsoft, Samsung, Peloton, Gentle Monster and Free People. For those adopting a flagship store only strategy, London gives access to the UK market and is also seen as the springboard for store expansion to the rest of Europe. One of the trends to have emerged is the number of retailers upsizing flagship stores in London; these have included Adidas, Asics, Alexander McQueen, Hermès and Next. Another developing trend is the growing number of food markets. Openings planned include Eataly in City of London, Kerb in Seven Dials and Market Halls on Oxford Street. London is the home to 8.85 million people and hosting over 26 million visitors annually, contributing more than £11.2 billion to the local economy.
