A small village at the start of the 1930s, Corby grew rapidly during this decade to become an industrial town, due to the establishment of a large integrated ironstone and steel works. In 1950 Corby was designated a New Town, heralding a second phase of expansion, with a car-based layout and some large areas of public open space. A high proportion of the new residents came to the area from Scotland.

  • Due to Continued Increasing Cases of COVID-19 Northampton, Corby, Kettering and Wellingborough Residents
    Northamptonshire COVID-19 Weekly Surveillance Report Due to continued increasing cases of COVID-19 Northampton, Corby, Kettering and Wellingborough residents are being asked to follow local guidance to protect the local community and reduce transmission rates. The borough’s of Corby and Kettering are now on the Government COVID-19 watchlist as ‘areas of concern.’ The borough of Northampton has been moved from an ‘area of intervention’ to an ‘area of enhanced support.’ Data up to 30 August 2020 Northampton, Corby and Kettering • The government has announced today (Friday 4th September 2020) that the boroughs of Corby and Kettering have been added to its COVID-19 watch list as ‘areas of concern’ due to recent increase in case numbers in both local authority areas. The borough of Northampton is to be moved from an ‘area of intervention’ to an ‘area of enhanced support’. • Over the last seven days we have seen a significant increase in the number of cases of Coronavirus in the boroughs of Corby and Kettering. A combination of factors have led to a rise in the daily incidence rate per 100,000 population and an increase in the percentage of tests turning positive. • Incidence rates in the borough of Northampton have seen a significant decrease since last week, with the figures for the week ending 30th August showing 19.5 cases per 100,000 people. This confirms that the spike seen in the previous week was largely due to the Greencore UK Northampton outbreak and that incidence rates are starting to return to the levels seen prior to this.

It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion3. The Borough of Corby is located in the north-east of Northamptonshire in the East Midlands. The major conurbations of Leicester, Northampton and Peterborough are located to the north-west, south-west and north-east of the Borough, respectively. The main pollutants of concern in Corby, as in most areas of the UK, are associated with road traffic, in particular NO2 and particulate matter (PM) at locations close to busy roads.
