Agenda item

Report of the Director of Community & Children’s Services.

Officers updated Members on the work of the Board on the following areas:

· Safer City Partnership Update

· Active Travel Update

· Square Mile Health Update

· Liaison and Diversion Service

· Mayor’s Vision for Cycling- Quietways update

· Health and Wellbeing advisory group

· Bags of Taste

· Report to Audit and Risk Management Committee on Air Quality

Members also noted that following the successful poster campaign encouraging

smoke-free playgrounds around the City, the Chartered Institute of

Environmental Health had requested to use the City’s campaign as a case

study on World Environmental Health Day which could be documented by BBC

News. A Member queried whether this campaign could include other pockets of

open space across the City however, officers advised that was currently not

possible due to a number of enforcement issues.

Resolved – that the update report be noted.
