Vaccine Update Hertfordshire Local Resilience Forum Stakeholder Update – 25 June 2021 A message from Darryl Keen, Director of Community Protection, Chief Fire Officer and Chair of the strategic coordination group of the LRF Dear colleague, More than 1.3million doses of a COVID vaccine have now been given to Hertfordshire residents and I would like to thank everyone involved in helping us to reach this significant milestone. We can’t afford to rest however, until all of our eligible residents and our workforce have been supported to have both doses of the vaccine. Nationally, coronavirus cases have risen to their highest level since early April, when lockdown restrictions first began to be lifted. But figures indicate the vaccination programme is making a significant difference and breaking the link between cases and hospitalisations. Please play your part by sharing the information in this briefing with your friends, colleagues and networks. Vaccine update There’s a big push on getting people vaccinated as the summer approaches, to make sure as many people are protected as soon as possible. It’s easier than ever to get the vaccine, with more appointments available on the National Booking System, pop-up and walk-in clinics and super-sized ‘grab-a-jab’ sessions this weekend. ‘Super Sunday’ Pfizer vaccination event at Watford FC This Sunday (27 June) the NHS, Watford Borough Council, Watford FC and a host of supporting organisations are holding a super-sized vaccination clinic at Watford FC’s stadium in Vicarage Road. The Pfizer vaccine will be on offer to anyone 18+ from Watford and the wider Hertfordshire area who has not yet had a vaccine. Attendees have the option to book in advance through this webpage: https://www.watford.gov.uk/super-sunday or just turn up on the day. There will be entertainment and refreshments available for anyone in the queue and people fluent in a number of languages spoken in the local area will be on hand to help the public. Nobody will be required to show ID and people don’t have to be registered with a GP to attend. Please share these details widely. The venue has the capacity to vaccinate more than 3,000 people on the day, between 10am and 9pm. People in the Watford area who need their first or second dose of the AstraZeneca vaccination can go to Watford Town Hall on Sunday – see our vaccination micro-site for more details. ‘Pop-up’ vaccination clinic at Broxbourne Borough Council offices (AstraZeneca and Pfizer) Over 18s from in and around Broxbourne, Cheshunt and Waltham Cross are being encouraged to get their vaccine at the pop-up clinic being held at Broxbourne council offices in Cheshunt on Sunday 27 June from 12-3pm. More details are available here. Keep up to date with the latest walk-ins All the details about the latest walk-in sessions at vaccine centres across Hertfordshire and west Essex are available online: https://covid.healthierfuture.org.uk/events/vaccination-walk-in-clinic- times This weekend alone there are walk in vaccination sessions in Harlow, Hemel Hempstead, Letchworth, Loughton, St Albans and Welwyn Garden City, with many more opportunities in the week ahead. Anyone who would rather book a guaranteed appointment should go to the National Booking Service or ring 119. Second doses for over 40s It’s now easier to change your appointment on the National Booking System and bring your second dose forward if you’re aged 40+. Anyone who had their first dose at least eight weeks ago, is encouraged to get their jab as soon as possible be logging on to the National Booking Service, where they’ll be able to see alternative appointments so they can re-schedule their second dose, or alternatively go to one of the walk-in sessions being held locally. Vaccine site changes Letchworth: The former Da Vinci School vaccination centre has closed this week and opened in the former Argos building in the town centre. Cheshunt: The Halsey Hall vaccination centre closes this week and will move to Warden Lodge Surgery in early July (date to be confirmed). Testing reminder It is becoming increasingly apparent that people with COVID-19 symptoms are using ‘rapid’ or ‘lateral flow’ tests to self-diagnose if they think that they might have COVID symptoms. Twice-weekly lateral flow tests should be an important part of our daily routines – they help to pick up potential COVID in people who are not displaying any symptoms. Many people now have a supply at home, provided by a school, nursery, or employer. However, they should not be used by any who has suspected COVID symptoms to ‘self-diagnose’ the virus. Anyone who thinks that they might have COVID symptoms must take a ‘PCR’ test, either by ordering one to be delivered to their home, or by attending one of the test centres in our area. They must then self-isolate while they wait for the results. This approach means that if the person does test positive, they can be supported to self-isolate if necessary. Test and Trace staff will also work with them to contact and advise friends, family members or colleagues who might have been infected. Book a PCR test at: https://www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test Supporting our communities Hertfordshire Volunteering and People Assistance Cell (VPAC) The COVID Local Support Grant, which was originally due to end on 20 June, has been extended until 30 September. Adult Care Services (ACS) has received £469,000 in the latest allocation, which is split with Children’s Services. Some 80 per cent of the allocated funding has been ring-fenced to provide support with food and utility bills, with the remaining 20 per cent for other essentials. The expectation is that the majority of the ACS funding will be used as previously, providing essential food and utility support to vulnerable households. Support will also be offered through foodbanks and other food organisations in conjunction with districts and boroughs and a Hertfordshire Community Foundation grant scheme, as well as being used to support groups like the gypsy and traveller community, faith groups and carers. To help ensure that all our communities have access to COVID vaccinations and the support to help them make an informed decision, the Health Protection Board has approved additional funding be allocated to voluntary and community sector organisations to help support vaccine confidence work, providing additional resources and capacity to deliver tailored communication, training and education to harder to reach and higher risk groups. Additional funding has also been received to support the voluntary sector with preparation for any third wave, as well as a new focus on recovery, proactively contacting those who have received support to assist with rebuilding mental and physical wellbeing and engagement with local community. #SaveOurSummer campaign A Health Protection Board-funded campaign targeting 18 to 25-year-olds in Hertfordshire began this week with a series of videos raising awareness of free home testing twice a week. It is the first phase of a #SaveOurSummer campaign and will be followed by other content highlighting how easy it is to build testing in to daily/weekly routines. The campaign has been developed using local insight, including focus groups and a countywide survey of young adults which received around 700 responses. I am very pleased to support our young people, many of whom have been significantly affected by COVID-19, with a campaign they helped to create. Thank you, Darryl. .

  • From the Garden City Movement Onwards
    From the Garden City Movement Onwards Utopianism in British Garden Cities Rick William Moerman Department of Human Geography Examiner: Mads Barbesgaard SGEM08 Supervisor: Anders Lund Hansen Spring 2020 2 Abstract With the publication of Garden Cities of To-Morrow in 1898, Ebenezer Howard gave the go-ahead to the Garden City Movement. Howard’s concept of the garden city arose from his anti-capitalist critiques. Many industrial cities in the United Kingdom were facing urbanization problems, leading to the working class living in terrible circumstances in the suburban areas. This process caused a poor quality of life, housing shortages, polluted air and water and a lack of access to nature. At the same time, the countryside lacked career opportunities and a lack of (cultural) amusement. Howard proposed the garden city as a new alternative to both ways of living. A garden city would have a green character and a blooming cultural life. Surrounding greenbelts and enough job opportunities would make the city self-sustainable. The reactions to Howard’s utopian ideas were mainly positive, leading to the construction of two garden cities in the United Kingdom. Letchworth and Welwyn Garden City were located close to London and offered a way of living as proposed by Howard. These projects were considered successful, leading to the establishment of the related New Town Movement. This movement eventually led to the creation of 28 new and self-sustaining towns all over the United Kingdom. Meanwhile, the two original garden cities had developed into rich commuter towns which had become too expansive for the working class population.

    GB 0046 D/ECb Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 13977 The National Archives HERTFORDSHIRE RECORD OFFICE D/ECb Deeds of the Koddesdon Brewery and a number of licensed houses owned or leased by the brevors. Deposited by Messrs. Boulton Sons and Sandeman for the Cannon Brewery. Inventory compiled: LAccession 162] March 1968 D/ECb Introduction This collection consists of deeds incident to the conveyance of the vhole of the Hoddesdon Brewery and all its licensed houses in 1866 and titl e deeds of some of those houses and of others that were acquired later. The expansion of Hoddesdon Brewery dates from its purchase by William Whittingstall from Rene Briand in 1781. From that date til l his death in 1803, rfhittingstall systematically enlarged the brewery*s commercial outlets by buying up a number of public houses in the surrounding district. Messrs. John Christie and George Cathrow bought the property from Vhittingstall's executors and at the death of Cathrow in 1842 it was sold privately to a new partnership of Messrs. Peter Christie, John Back and Robert Hunt. After Peter Christie's death and when 3ack and Hunt had retired to their country estates, the firm was conveyed in 1866 to Charles Peter Christie. On his death in 1898 it was turned into a public company which 30 years later was absorbed by the Cannon Brewery of London, later controlled by Taylor, Valker and Co. and now by the Ind Coope combine.

It has an area of around 20 square miles and a population of 95,700 (source: Office for National Statistics mid-2014 population estimate). The largest towns are Cheshunt, Waltham Cross and Hoddesdon. Those aged 60-74 make up approximately 14.1% of the Broxbourne population. Over the next 10 years, due to ageing population trends and longer life expectancy, the proportion of residents aged 75 and over is likely to increase significantly from its current level of 8.3%. This will pose new challenges for health and other services. Broxbourne Borough Council has an approximate headcount of 580 staff with offices in Cheshunt, One Stop Shops in Cheshunt, Hoddesdon and Waltham Cross and Leisure Centres in Cheshunt and Hoddesdon. The Council aims to provide high quality services to its customers. The most recent independent survey showed a 79% satisfaction rating, one of the highest in the country. Although we continue to face financial challenges, our objective is to maintain this high level of customer satisfaction.
