Communications were focussed around encouraging residents to sign up to the pledge but also directed residents to support services and the council’s alcohol webpages raised awareness of the different health risks associated with alcohol and of ‘safe’ alcohol limits. A blog was created on the council’s website which followed Andrea Fallon’s (Director of Public Health) Dry January challenge. Andrea detailed her successes and tribulations as well as discussing the impact of alcohol on society, business, finances and health to name a few. The communications team also promoted information/intervention stalls taking place in the Exchange Shopping Centre. The campaign was a success with 321 visits to the Council’s Dry January webpage, 426 to Andrea’s blog, another 42 to the council’s ‘Drink Safely’ webpages and 14 pledges. Hate Crime Awareness Week took place from 8th – 14th February to raise awareness of what a hate crime is and how to report it. During this week social media messages were distributed through the council’s channels to direct people to the council’s webpage which hosts information on reporting. Community-based information events were hosted at Deeplish Community Centre and the Exchange Shopping Centre and were promoted on social media. A radio advert was also aired and the press release received coverage in the Rochdale Observer and Rochdale online. As part of this week a disability hate crime play called ‘Animals’ was commissioned in partnership with the Adult Safeguarding Board and Possabilities. Two fully-booked showings were put on at Rochdale Town Hall and received great coverage on social media and the local press. During Quarter 4 a communications plan has been developed to promote the work of the Partnership Enforcement Team (PET) which includes quarterly Challenger campaigns and live tweeting exercises. Following this an article was published in the Environmental Health News magazine promoting how to team use their powers to combat organised crime. This quarter the communications team also supported the promotions of the Holocaust Memorial Day ceremony and the launch of a domestic violence education resource. 5 6 PRIORITY 1: INCREASING CONFIDENCE AND SATISFACTION Q2 Q3 Status Best Q1 April- Q4 Jan- Actual Actual Target July- Oct- Year (against Direction of outcome June Mar Indicator Title 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 Sept Dec End 15-16 travel low or high 2015 2016 2015 2015 target) High 75% 72% Increase 71% 71% 68% 71% 71% CS1 – To increase the percentage of people who agree that the Police and Just off Council are dealing with the anti- Improving social behaviour and crime issues target that matter to people in their local area High 99% 98% Increase 98% 98% 98% 98% 98% CS2a – To increase the percentage of Just off No change people who feel safe outside in their target local area during the day and at night High 83% 83% Increase 84% 83% 83% 83% 83% CS2b – To increase the percentage of Just off No change people who feel safe outside in their target local area during the day and at night High 66% 58% Increase 58% 58% 57% 58% 58% CS3 – Increase the number of people Just off No change who feel they can influence decisions target made in their area 6 7 STRATEGIC PRIORITY 2 – REDUCE CRIME 2.2.1 Highlights and Exceptions Overall numbers of theft crimes were just slightly up on the same quarter in 2014- 15, comparing relatively well with the results of our GM neighbours 2.2.3 Reducing Crime – how we compare These tables show our current performance on RC9, RC10, RC11, RC12, RC13 and RC14 compares with that of our neighbouring Boroughs across Greater Manchester.

  • 'After Housing Costs' Child Poverty Rate from Highest to Lowest
    Notes: This spreadsheet ranks wards in Greater Manchester by their 'after housing costs' child poverty rate from highest to lowest. This is done using data published by End Child Poverty in 2019. The data also ranks areas based on the proportion of the population in a ward classified as black and minority ethnic (BAME) in census data. The higher the proportion of people who are BAME in a ward the higher the rank. This data shows that areas with the highest BAME populations in Greater Manchester are often the areas with the highest rates of child poverty.

  • Lancashire: a Chronology of Flash Flooding
    LANCASHIRE: A CHRONOLOGY OF FLASH FLOODING Introduction The past focus on the history of flooding has been mainly with respect to flooding from the overflow of rivers and with respect to the peak level that these floods have achieved. The Chronology of British Hydrological Events provides a reasonably comprehensive record of such events throughout Great Britain. Over the last 60 years the river gauging network provides a detailed record of the occurrence of river flows and peak levels and flows are summaried in HiflowsUK. However there has been recent recognition that much flooding of property occurs from surface water flooding, often far from rivers. Locally intense rainfall causes severe flooding of property and land as water concentrates and finds pathways along roads and depressions in the landscape. In addition, intense rainfall can also cause rapid rise in level and discharge in rivers causing a danger to the public even though the associated peak level is not critical. In extreme cases rapid rise in river level may be manifested as a ‘wall of water’ with near instantaneous rise in level of a metre or more. Such events are usually convective and may be accompanied by destructive hail or cause severe erosion of hillsides and agricultural land. There have been no previous compilations of historical records of such ‘flash floods’or even of more recent occurrences. It is therefore difficult to judge whether a recent event is unusual or even unique in terms of the level reached at a particular location or more broadly of regional severity. This chronology of flash floods is provided in order to enable comparisons to be made between recent and historical floods, to judge rarity and from a practical point of view to assess the adequacy of urban drainage networks.
