Tonight's Telegraph Hill Ward Assembly

I attended the Telegraph Hill Ward Assembly tonight at the Barnes Wallis Centre and it was a very interesting evening. Most of the evening was devoted to health in the ward with presentations from Dr Brian Fisher of the PCT, Lewisham Link and workers in mental health wellbeing.

The main focus of the evening was on what people thought was good about healthcare provision in Lewisham and what needed to be improved. Generally Lewisham Hospital scored quite highly, but convenient and available appointment times at GP surgeries and the hospital Outpatient department needed improving.

Other topics covered were:

- Outdoor Gym
- The loss of the pedestrian crossing by Barclays Bank in New Cross
- Traffic on Gellatly Road
- Queen's Road llitter
- Good crime figures for the Somerville Estate
- Consultations at Kender Road Primary School - new road layouts which are running on Thusday between 4pm and 8pm; and Saturday between 10am and 3pm.
- Hate crime projects
- Consulation on 343 / N343 bus routes.

Contact me if you need further information on anything stated here. I will be posting a separate article on the Telegraph Hill Labour Website about the TFL consultation on the 343 shortly.
