Watford Dementia Survey 2019

Working towards making Watford a Dementia Friendly Community, the Watford Dementia partnership would like to hear your views on living with, or caring for, a family member or friend with dementia. 

They are interested to know what you think about Watford as a place for someone with dementia and to better understand what might help make it more dementia friendly.

Revitalising St Albans Road

Watford Borough Council, working closely with local councillors, local businesses, residents and Hertfordshire County Council, want to make improvements to St Albans Road. These include new street furniture, improved paving, tree planting, more cycle friendly routes and other changes to the look and feel of the area.

Watford Borough Council is investing £400,000 to revamp the ‘Callowland’ stretch of St Albans Road (from Brixton Road to Balmoral Road). It’s really important that we can get the views of local residents and users about how you think this stretch of St Albans Road can be made better.
Have your say on the consultation at www.stalbansroad.co.uk

The £400,000 investment will include:

Repairing pavements​

Consistent style for railings on pavements and on the road

More trees and greenery

More parking bays to ease the parking pressure

Exploring options for cycling along the route

Working with Hertfordshire County Council to resolve the water pooling

Watford Borough Council will use the information you provide in this survey to stay in touch with you, providing news, updates and marketing.

Dear Watch Member,

Today the Watford and Hertsmere Safer Neighbourhood Teams were out in full force on the Meriden Estate in Watford. We are aware of some concerns from some members of the public regarding crime in the estate and it was our aim to get more information today. We were stationed at the main entrances and exit of the estate and speaking to as many people as possible, gathering more information regarding the concerns that people of the area have and at the same time disrupting any crime, being a presence and gathering intelligence.

Officers were in the area for 5 hours and stopped around 800 people, we received a great deal of information from many of those stopped and the team would like to thank everyone for their time and cooperation. If you didn’t see us today and would like to give us any information that you have, please do not hesitate to get in contact with us, either by replying to myself, calling us on 101 or visiting www.herts.police.uk/report and using our online reporting feature.
