5 Surveillance of the Antibiotic Susceptibility of Bacteria Found in the Urinary Tract in the West Midlands Over a Four Year Period
An investigation into the relationship between antimicrobial prescribing and antimicrobial resistance in urinary tract infections at a population level By Dean Ironmonger A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Institute of Microbiology and Infection College of Medical and Dental Sciences University of Birmingham December 2017 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract Inappropriate use of antibiotics is a key factor in the development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). UK national guidance has been ineffective in standardising the management of infections in the community. Many community prescribers are sceptical that their actions have an effect on AMR in their locality. As part of this study, routine surveillance of AMR in a large regional population was established. To help interpret surveillance data, two surveys were undertaken: a survey of laboratory methods, and a survey of GP sampling and prescribing protocols. Using these survey results, surveillance tools were developed to provide hospital and community prescribers with data on antibiotic resistance in bacteria within their locality; and enable laboratories to compare methods for determining antibiotic susceptibility. -

SWT Housing Newsletter 2020
WINTER 2020 Housing News Great Homes for Local Communities Introduction from Cllr Francesca Smith (Housing Portfolio Holder) Welcome to our December issue of the Somerset West and Taunton Housing Newsletter. Going forward we intend to produce a newsletter for you to read every quarter. The next one will be due in spring and you can also find this newsletter online at www.somersetwestandtaunton.gov.uk. We have all been through so much this year, especially with lockdowns during the year. Just as we were gaining momentum after the first lockdown, we had to lock down again. We will of course continue to support our residents during the global pandemic and reduce the risk of spreading the coronavirus. Despite, the difficulties this year, the Housing Directorate has continued to deliver against their objectives of delivering more new homes, providing great customer services and improving our existing homes and neighbourhoods. I hope you enjoy reading about the great things that have been achieved in this edition. The future of Local Government still remains subject to change and I wrote to you in November to make you aware of those changes. You may wish to look through the “Stronger Somerset” (www. strongersomerset.co.uk) and “One Council” (www.onesomerset.org.uk) information to familiarise yourself with the current situation. Lastly but certainly not least “I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!” Annual Report 2019/2020 Highlights 83% of our Deane Helpline Our Debt & customers rated the service Benefit Advisor they received as excellent helped 444 tenants We spent 7.9 million repairing, maintaining and We completed 41 major improving your homes and disability adaptations and communal areas. -
BY E. GREEN (Eon. Sec.)
ftoios mt the Jistorg «f £)uluft[ion. BY E. GREEN (Eon. Sec.) pUT a few years ago the history of any parish would have ^ commenced with some extract from Domesday book, now, thanks to one, alas ! lately departed from us, two years earlier can be included, and much new matter gained. Still all is rather complex, and future workers may yet find room for their investigations. In the Gheld Inquest then, taken in 1084, Dul- vertona is found as part of Williton Hundred, and, with Netelcoma and Uinnesforda, was rated at six hides, one virgate and one fertin, the dues on which were in arrear. The Domesday measurement is about a third more. But although Dulverton is here found already in Williton, it for a time, it would seem, gave the name to the Hundred. It here included Potesdona(Pixton), Holma (Hollam), and certain lands owned by thirteen Taini, the value, £-3. 4s. 2d., making uipthe Domesday measurement of 8,337 acres, held by the King in capite. Be- fore the Conquest it was owned by Earl Harold, who received a rent from Brigeford, from the Earl of Moretain, of twenty- “ four sheep ; a custom, says the Inquest, now discontinued.” The rental was eleven pounds ten shillings, paid in white money. Within the manor was a still uncertain holding of one virgate of land, called Widepolla, the same spelling as for Withypool, held by Robert de Odburvilla, formerly owned by one Dodo in the time of King Eadward. D'Auberville, as the name next becomes, and Dodo, were both King’s foresters, but D’Auber- ville, by a suit at law, managed to secure the property, and then to separate it from Dulverton, holding it by what was considered the more honourable tenure, by service, instead of, as before, by a money rent. -

Various partners drew up a 20 Year Flood Action Plan. Somerset Rivers Authority was launched in January 2015 to oversee that Plan and do the extra work that long experience has shown Somerset needs. There is no single answer to Somerset’s many flooding problems, and different parts of the county have different needs. That is why the SRA was set up as a partnership. Different organisations are limited in what they can do individually, but as SRA partners they can get more done by acting collectively. -

Full Council – 16 July 2019
Full Council – 16 July 2019 Motion to declare Somerset West and Taunton a Frack- Free Zone Motion proposed by Councillor Caroline Ellis, seconded by Councillor Dixie Darch Preamble:- This Council notes that: 1. Parts of Somerset West and Taunton i.e. areas around Minehead and Watchet and a section of Exmoor National Park have been licensed by central government for onshore unconventional shale oil and shale gas development (PEDL 344), which could include hydraulic fracturing or “fracking” for short. 2. Shale gas and shale oil are fossil fuels and emit greenhouse gases (methane, via fugitive emissions and carbon dioxide via production processes and when burnt). 3. Fracking in the US, Canada and Australia has produced unacceptable risks including ground water contamination and adverse impacts on air quality (with the release, treatment and disposal of radioactive toxins), agriculture, public health and safety, climate stability, economic vitality, the rural economy (farming & tourism), landscape and property values as well as earthquakesi. While England is said to have a more robust regulatory system, there are weaknesses; much of the monitoring of pollution, leaks etc. is left to the companies themselves and the regulators are often under budgetary pressures.ii 4. The latest scientific evidence demonstrates that fracking has no role to play in the transition to a zero carbon economy and would thwart the UK’s climate change mitigation efforts.iii 5. Popular opposition to fracking across Somerset West and Taunton is evidenced by strong support for groups such as ‘Frack Free Somerset’ and ‘Frack Free EQS’ (Exmoor, Quantocks and Sedgemoor) and motions to declare Frack-Free Zones passed by Watchet and Wiveliscombe Town Councils and Parish Councils including Bishops Lydeard and Cothelstone, Clatworthy, Dulverton, Exton, Old Cleeve, Selworthy and Minehead Without and Stogumber.
