A review of existing archaeological and historical sources suggested that the Site has a low potential for containing deposits of Prehistoric to Medieval date, and a high potential for containing deposits relating to a terrace of late 19th century buildings. Farming and various phases of construction in the 19th onwards is likely to have truncated to an unknown extent any archaeological deposits across much of the site. _____________________________________________________________________ i Archaeology South-East Lion House, Slough _____________________________________________________________________ CONTENTS 1.

  • Link to OPAR 2012 Newsletter
    The Old Paludians Newsletter Founded 1915 Website: www.oldpaludians.org March 2012 EDITORIAL As you all know, Slough Grammar School is this year celebrating its centenary. In 2015, The Old Paludians Association will celebrate its own centenary. During this time there have been so many changes, both globally and locally. Slough has changed completely since the 1950/60s and those changes would seem even more astonishing to anyone who attended the original Slough Secondary School in 1912. During the past 100 years not only have we suffered two terrible World Wars- as you will see reflected in some of the many news items sent in – but also Man has taken his first steps on the moon and…computers have arrived on Earth. Every pupil has access to the latest technology and even Luddites, such as your Editor, find themselves making frequent references to dongles, dingbats and the latest Blu-ray technology (my apologies to those of you who have never travelled this path, but be reassured - you may be better off as it can be infuriating when it fails !). All this has made almost everything accessible to almost everybody, which may or may not be an advantage. We shall see! We are simply left wondering what the next 100 years will bring. Will it still be considered polite to thank someone for help received? I sincerely hope so! With that in mind, I should like to thank Mrs Mercedes Hernández Estrada for allowing us to once again invade the building for this, our special reunion. This is my last editorial, as I am now handing the task over to Bob Moss (see details below).

  • Primary Care Professionals and Social Marketing of Health in Neighbourhoods: a Case Study Approach to Identify, Target and Communicate with ‘At Risk’ Populations
    Primary Health Care Research and Development 2007; 8: 22–35 doi: 10.1017/S1463423607000047 Primary care professionals and social marketing of health in neighbourhoods: a case study approach to identify, target and communicate with ‘at risk’ populations Jane Powell Faculty of Health and Social Care, University of the West of England, UK, Alan Tapp Business School, University of the West of England, Bristol, UK, Judy Orme Faculty of Health and Social Care, University of the West of England, UK and Marc Farr Dr Foster, London, UK and (formerly of Experian Ltd, Nottingham, UK); Lancaster University, UK Aim: In this article the authors illustrate using a case study approach how primary care professionals can use the combination of geodemographic data with hospital episode statistics (HES) to predict the location of people ‘at risk’ of diabetes mellitus (Type 2 diabetes) in the population of England. This approach facilitates social marketing of those ‘at risk’. Method: Geodemographic segmentation data for all households was combined with HES for 2001–2002, to predict population groups ‘at risk’ of Type 2 dia- betes. Using a case study approach and quantitative data analysis techniques, a profile of the undiagnosed and ‘at risk’ population of Slough Primary Care Trust was created at town, ward and street levels. Recent literature on social marketing was applied to predi- cate a discussion of the theory and practice of social marketing that was most likely to succeed in dealing with the prevention of Type 2 diabetes, via the reduction of obesity and overweight in the population. Discussion: The increase in lifestyle-related dis- eases, such as, Type 2 diabetes that are linked with the rise in overweight and obesity and create large disease management costs for the National Health Service (NHS) are of great concern to primary healthcare professionals and governments throughout the westernized world.
