The World Health Organization says one in four people globally have had problems such as de- pression or a panic attack at some point. But research published by The Mental Health Foundation suggest a much worse situation in the UK. Its survey of more than 2,000 people indicates a growing problem.

Preface 2. Introduction 3. The Review Process 4. Narrative Chronology 5. Analysis – Individual Agency Responses 6. Analysis Against Terms of Reference 7. Conclusions 8. Was this homicide preventable? 9. Recommendations Appendices 1. Terms of Reference 2. Combined Chronology 3. Action Plans 4. Glossary of Terms 2 Section One: PREFACE 1. This Domestic Homicide Review (DHR) report examines agency responses to Magda Eriksen2 and her son, Thomas Eriksen3, both residents of Camden, up to the point of Magda’s death in May 2014. 2. Domestic Homicide Reviews (DHRs) were established on a statutory basis under Section 9 of the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act (2004). The Act states that a DHR should be: ‘A review of the circumstances in which the death of a person aged 16 years or over has, or appears to have resulted from violence, abuse or neglect by – a) A person to whom (s)he was related or with whom (s)he was or had been in an intimate relationship or b) a member of the same household as himself/herself’ 3. The key purposes for undertaking DHRs4 are to: Establish what lessons are to be learned from the domestic homicide regarding the way in which local professionals and organisations work individually and together to safeguard victims; Identify clearly what those lessons are both within and between agencies, how and within what timescales they will be acted on, and what is expected to change as a result; Apply these lessons to service responses including changes to policies and procedures as appropriate; and Prevent domestic violence homicide and improve service responses for all domestic violence victims and their children through improved intra and inter-agency working.

  • St Pancras Hospital Redevelopment Proposal
    St Pancras Hospital Redevelopment Proposal Informal Consultation with service users, former service users, staff and carers Conducted by Healthwatch Camden on behalf of the Camden and Islington NHS Trust. Introduction What is the Redevelopment Programme? The plans include a proposal to move the in-patient beds from St Pancras to a new, purpose built unit in Highgate. There is no plan to reduce the number of beds — just to move their location. The buildings at St Pancras would then be rebuilt and would continue to provide a range of outpatient mental health services. The new buildings on the site would occupy a smaller area which means the rest of the land could be leased or sold to cover the cost of building the new facilities. Aims We know that changes to a service can be difficult for patients, carers and staff. Healthwatch Camden wanted to talk to people who use the in-patient service currently located at St Pancras to find out what the proposed changes will mean for them. We also wanted to hear from people who have used the service in the past, as well as carers and hospital staff. Although the Trust commissioned this work and fully supported it, Healthwatch Camden interviewed staff, carers, service users and former service users completely independently, to ensure everyone could be as open and honest as possible about their views and any concerns. 1 Method The research used one to one in depth interviews. Interviews were structured with a set of five open ended questions. While responses to the pre-set questions were sought, free comment around the themes was encouraged.

  • North Central London Devolution Pilot Outline Business Case November 2017 N C L Common Introduction North Central London Sustainability and Transformation Plan
    N C L North Central London Sustainability and Transformation Plan North Central London Devolution Pilot Outline Business Case November 2017 N C L Common Introduction North Central London Sustainability and Transformation Plan Over the past eighteen months, local and sub-regional areas have been working to make rapid improvements to health and care within existing powers and exploring how more local powers, resources and decision-making could accelerate the improvements that Londoners want to see at the most appropriate and local level. Different parts of London have diverse communities, health challenges and quality of health and care services. It is therefore entirely appropriate that different solutions are developed for different areas and that enabling tools, such as devolution, be adopted at different pace and scale based on local appetite. In this spirit, the approach to London health and care devolution has been for five 'pilots' to develop shared local plans for health and care transformation and then identify opportunities to accelerate these plans through devolution. Each pilot business case aims to describe this local transformation vision, priorities, governance and delivery plans. The pilots have wide partnerships including local authorities, Clinical Commissioning Groups, providers of health and care services, clinical leaders, the voluntary sector and wider public sector partners. The visions and plans developed by the pilots aim to further this collaboration and accelerate health and care transformation, not just through devolution but also by accelerating progress within existing arrangements. These business cases have been developed locally and are owned by the individual pilots. Over the past eighteen months, the work of the pilots has demonstrated that the benefits of devolution are as much from indirect as direct effects.

  • Introduction Process
    Camden LB Consultation The Local Government Boundary Commission for England's proposes revised boundaries for Camden wards, including for Camden Town while seeking to maintain electoral variance. This presentation is late in the consultation but important because of relative lack of responses until now from Camden Town and south Kentish Town residents. Introduction Before 2002 there were more wards (26) and councillors (59). The wards boundaries before and after 1999 shown: . 1982-2002 2002-2022 In 1999 the boundaries were revised for all the wards as well as many of the names. One beneficial effect was fewer ward boundaries at Britannia Junction (Camden Town Underground station). Process LGBCE has undertaken the consultation with transparency through the internet. In 2018, the Commission inquired from the Camden Council, which at present predominantly has Labour councillors. The Council broadly supported the existing boundaries, but other political parties proposed revisions. The Commission's first draft recommendation changed almost all of the ward boundaries and increased the number of wards, some with only two councillors. A second draft recommendation in September, however, introduces a new ward for 'Camden Town'. This proposal is unsatisfactory: 1 * It prevents Primrose Hill ward having a boundary at Camden High Street * It separates Hawley Road from Kentish Town * It separates Rochester & Jeffreys from Cantelowes ward * It separates Camden Town Underground from much of Camden Town * It divides the junction at Camden Road Station across five wards – the same problem as previously at Britannia Junction and more than anywhere else now proposed within the Borough. History LB Camden was created in 1965 as the union of Holborn, St Pancras and Hampstead boroughs.

    Camley Street & 06 St Pancras Way Area 53 Policy CSP1 – Camley Street and St Pancras Way Area 6.1 The Camley Street and St Pancras Way Area (shown in Figure 6.1) is located on the edge of London’s central activities zone in close proximity to Kings Cross and St Pancras station. Over recent years the area surrounding Camley Street and St Pancras Way has been dramatically transformed Camley Street with the redevelopment of King’s and Pancras Cross Central, the emergence of Way Area the Knowledge Quarter and the strengthened role of Camden Town as a major tourist destination with its market and as a hub for creative industries. Whilst the area sits in a wider area of major transformation, it feels divorced from it. Redevelopment has the potential to integrate the area with the wider surrounding areas of change, whilst helping it become a more attractive and recognisable place in its own right – and a more successful neighbourhood and place for living and working. 6.2 Proposals for this area will be considered having regard to Policy CSP1, any other relevant policies in King’s Cross Camley Street & St Pancras Way & St Pancras Camley Street Station this Site Allocations Local Plan, all St Pancras relevant development plan policies Station and any other relevant material considerations.
