Together First CIC GP Federation has launched a dedicated Routine Childhood Immunisations booking line on behalf of Barking & Dagenham GP Practices to improve vaccination rates in children under five across the borough.

In today’s announcement (30 December) from the Education Secretary Gavin Williamson MP, we discovered that Barking and Dagenham is on a list which means our primary schools will only be open to children with a social worker and children of key workers on Monday 4 January. 21 other London boroughs are also on this list which appears to be based on case rates.

There continues to be traffic disruption due to mains replacement work being carried out along Rainham Road South, starting from the junction of Reede Road to the junction of Dagenham Road.

These works have now progressed to Rainham Road South junction of Dagenham Road and as such, additional delays are expected at this junction for the next three weeks.

Advance warning signs have been put up to inform of the disruption. Drivers should avoid the area or choose an alternative route where possible.

The total number of valid votes given to each registered party and individual candidate in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham area is as follows:
