    What's On in Warwick (and What's Not) A long-term calendar of events for residents and visitors compiled by Unlocking Warwick February 2021 onwards (Revised 31.1.21) www.unlockingwarwick.org Warwick Market is every Saturday from 9am. Farmers' Markets are usually on the 2nd and 5th Saturdays of the month. The latest rules from the government In England The National Lockdown 'Tier Five' introduced in early January is likely to continue through February and it could be considerably longer, with hospitals at near capacity and a very high death rate. The details of the rules and exemptions are here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/national-lockdown-stay-at-home In summary: • You must not leave, or be outside of your home except where necessary. You may leave home to: shop for basic necessities, for yourself or for a vulnerable person; go to work, or provide voluntary or charitable services, if you cannot reasonably do so from home; exercise in a public outdoor space, with your household (or support bubble) or one other person; this should be limited to once per day, and you should not travel outside your local area; meet your support bubble or childcare bubble if necessary; seek medical assistance or to avoid risk of harm (including domestic abuse); attend education or childcare - for those eligible; attend a place of worship. • Schools and colleges are closed (except for vulnerable children and the children of key workers). Boris Johnson has ruled out schools in England re-opening after the February half term, instead setting an 8th March target.

  • Belgrave Harriers the English National Cross-Country Championships ______
    Belgrave Harriers The English National Cross-Country Championships _______________________________________________________________________________________________ The English National Cross-Country Championships — Men The first ever ‘National’ Cross-Country Championship was held at Buckhurst Hill, Epping Forest in 1876, organized by Thames Hare & Hounds. Invitations had been sent to Birmingham Athletic Club, Spartan Harriers and South London Harriers, but there was the possibility of the race being additionally thrown open to any other cross-country club. In fact, just the three London clubs took up the challenge. With a total of 32 runners between them, in pouring rain, after the trail-layers had run out of paper to mark the way, every single runner went off course. The race was declared void. The organizer, Thames Hare & Hounds founder member Walter Rye, made sure that successive races went off more successfully and, unsurprisingly, they were held in his club’s own territory – Roehampton – covering, variously, Wimbledon Common, Putney Heath, Malden, Morden, and other places that we know so well. In 1883 the National Cross-Country Union was formed to ensure that Amateur Athletic Association laws were followed, and the more appropriate title of the English Cross-County Union was assumed in 1933. The current organizing body, the English Cross-Country Association (ECCA), was established in 1992 following the amalgamation of the former men’s and women’s bodies, the English Cross-Country Union and the Women’s Cross- Country and Road Running Association. However, under whatever banner the races have been held, they have almost always been known as the ‘National.’ No championships were held from 1915 to 1919 due to the First World War and then, on resumption in 1920, Belgrave Harriers at last sent along a team to take part in the race in Windsor Great Park where King George V was to present the medals, specially struck at the Mint and bearing his image; this was in recognition of all that the sport had done for the Services during the war.

  • Place Based Needs Assessment Warwick and Warwick District West
    PLACE BASED NEEDS ASSESSMENT WARWICK AND WARWICK DISTRICT WEST Warwickshire Joint Strategic Needs Assessment July 2020 REPORT DETAILS Lead Emily van de Venter, Associate Director of Public Health Sponsor Councillor Judith Falp Insight Analyst/ main author Caroline McKenzie, Business Intelligence WCC Acknowledgements Thank you to everyone who contributed to the content of this report, in particular the Warwick and Warwick District West Steering Group, the stakeholders who attended various community engagement events and those at WCC and externally who have provided data. Date published July 2020 It should be noted that the research for these reports took place prior to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Although the reports refer to long standing health and wellbeing issues which have and will continue to impact upon residents, we would encourage you to read them alongside the COVID- 19 Health Impact Assessment which is available on the Warwickshire JSNA webpage (from July 2020). This assessment identifies key health and wellbeing indicators that have been affected by the Coronavirus outbreak. The pandemic has and will continue to have direct and indirect impacts on individuals and communities across Warwickshire. Some who suffered from COVID-19 illness are facing a period of recovery of unknown trajectory. Many of those who lost loved ones during the pandemic are having to grieve without having been able to say goodbye, or to be close to others while they grieve. Additionally, economic and mental health impacts are already being felt as a result of the pandemic response, with these impacts disproportionately affecting people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Groups and those with lower incomes, who have often been at the frontline of the response in essential worker roles.
