Wham! Issue 64 HEALTH and WELLBEING With an update on news from Dundry View Neighbourhood Partnership This issue delivered to Bishopsworth, Headley Park, Highridge, Bedminster Down, Uplands, Hartcliffe, Withywood, Whitchurch Park and Teyfant T: 0117 903 8044 Issue 64 April-June 2016 Welcome to the spring edition of the wham! newsletter. This issue’s focus is on Health and Wellbeing. We’ve got the mums from Hartcliffe Children’s Centre talking about how they’ve trained to be Health Champions, Positive Minds are helping us improve our mental wellbeing, we find out about singing to boost our mood and much more. On the middle pages you’ll find a preview of the new Dundry Slopes walks guide created by the children at Room 13 so it’s time to take the dog out, or go to borrowmydoggy.com and grab some fresh air as spring is now officially here. As a Neighbourhood Partnership we aim to make the area a pleasant and healthy place to live with community facilities for all ages. We work towards this in various ways including working on new play areas for Willmott Park, Headley Park and Bedminster Down and reducing fly tipping, littering and dog fouling at hotspot locations including Maceys Road, Valley Walk and Bishport Avenue. We also support a wide range of healthy projects, some featured inside. One of the shocking facts about health inequality is that people in Hartcliffe live on average five years less than Cliftonites. So have a look at our election special on page 10 and think about who to vote for to help improve where you live.

  • Professor Philip Alston United Nations Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty and Human Rights
    Professor Philip Alston United Nations Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty and Human Rights By email Our Ref: ZA37220 7 November 2018 Dear Professor Alston I am writing regarding your inquiry into poverty in the United Kingdom and in particular the challenges facing so-called peripheral estates in large cities. This week you have been in Bristol, one of the wealthiest cites in the United Kingdom and the only one of the ten Core Cities which is a net contributor to the UK Treasury. However, Bristol is also an unequal city and I am convinced that the actions of central government since 2010 have made this worse. The constituency which I am proud to represent, Bristol South, has the highest number of social security claimants in the city, the poorest health outcomes and the lowest educational attainment. The southern part of my constituency also suffers from extremely poor transport links to the rest of the city and higher crime than most areas. Thousands of people depend on national or local government for financial and other support, support which has been dramatically reduced since 2010. They have been hit disproportionately by the austerity imposed by the Conservative/Liberal Democrat coalition government 2010-15 and the Conservative government since 2015. The electoral ward of Hartcliffe and Withywood is the most south-eastern part of the city where it meets the countryside of North Somerset. It contains five of the ten most deprived communities in Bristol as defined by the Bristol City Council Local Super Output Area (LSOAs) Indices of Multiple Deprivation 2015. Nearby Filwood ward has a further three of these ten most deprived LSOAs.
