Students make the grade

The class of 2014 can now enjoy


whats left of the summer after
4,500 local students collected
their GCSE, A-level and BTEC
results over the last fortnight.
And while the numbers were
still being crunched at the time of
Waltham Forest News going to print,
provisional gures show that 99 per
cent of A-level students achieved a
pass, while nationally this dropped
slightly to 98 per cent.
Early indications show that the
boroughs GCSE results will be in
line with 2013s gures, despite a
number of reforms being brought
in this year which changed exam
processes for students and teaching
staff.
Cllr Mark Rusling, Cabinet Member
for Children and Young People, said:
Our students and teaching staff
have done a sterling job to improve
education in Waltham Forest over
the past few years, and that shows
in the ambitions of our students as
more and more set off for sixth form
Hard work pays off as
students look forward to

But it wasnt just teenagers who
had a reason to celebrate, as the
Waltham Forest Adult Learning
Service also pulled in fantastic
GCSE results. 91 per cent of the
34 adult students who sat Maths
achieved an A* to C grade, while
84 per cent of the 43 students who
took English achieved the same
grades.
Final GCSE and A-level results will
be released by the Department for
Education in January 2015.

Waltham Forest Improving
Access to Psychological
Therapies more commonly
known as Waltham Forest
IAPT is a primary care
psychological therapy service.
This is a free, condential
therapy service provided by the
North East London Foundation
Trust (NELFT).
The service provides therapies
recommended by the National
Institute for Health and Care
Excellence (NICE) for those
suffering from mild to moderate
depression and anxiety disorders.
Anxiety disorders cover a
wide range of conditions such
as panic disorder, health anxiety,
phobias, social phobia, obsessive
compulsive disorder (OCD), body
dysmorphic disorder and post-
traumatic stress disorder. Recently,
the service has started offering
therapy to those suffering from
long term conditions and medically
unexplained symptoms to help with
their depression and anxiety.
The service operates from
three main hubs in the borough
Chingford, Walthamstow,
Leytonstone, various GP surgeries
and some community settings. Our
operating hours are Monday to
Thursday, 8am to 8pm and Friday
from 8am to 5pm. The services
accept referrals from any resident
of the borough aged 18 and above
who is registered with a local GP.
Our aim is to make our service
accessible to people living in
Waltham Forest. The NICE
guidelines for depression and
anxiety disorders recommend
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
(CBT) in the treatment of these
conditions. CBT is the main
treatment that we offer. However,
we also offer interpersonal
psychotherapy, dynamic
interpersonal therapy and
behavioural couples therapy.
The service is based on the step
care model and the type of therapy
you receive will depend on your
problems. Therapy is offered at
different levels, depending on your
particular needs. The service offers
both individual and group based
therapies.
Following an assessment your
therapist will discuss with you the
choice of therapy that could best
help you with your problems. The
waiting time within this service is
low. In addition to therapy, we offer
employment support to those who
are engaged in treatment with the
service.

you can discuss it with your GP or
health care professional. Or you

Lest we forget
It was one of the most
signicant wars the world has
ever seen and on the 100th
anniversary of its outbreak,
Monday 4 August 2014, people
across the country gathered to
honour the lives of those who
served in and were affected by
World War I.
In Waltham Forest, over 800
people lled Walthamstow
Assembly Hall that evening to
reect on the sacrices made by
men and women in a war which,
from 1914 to 1918, took around
one million British lives alone.
Tributes to the fallen took a
range of forms, with musical
performances from the London
Forest Choir, Stow Caledonian
Pipe Band, Warrant Ofcer Choir,
vocalist and pianist Amy Young
and violinist Lucia Smith. A number
of WWI poems were also read
on the night, including Thomas
Hardys Channel Firing, which
was read by Karishma Mahomed,
Young Mayoress of Waltham
Forest.
Exhibits from World War I artists
were also on show, including

Thousands of families across the
borough could be affected by
proposed changes to Waltham
Forests Council Tax Support
Scheme (CTS), and the Council
is urging anyone who may be
affected to have their say.
The CTS helps people of working
age who are on low incomes and
need help paying their Council Tax
bill. The scheme began after wide-
ranging changes to the benets
system were introduced by central
government and Council Tax
Benet was scrapped.
Hundreds of residents gathered for
a celebration to mark Eid-ul-Fitr at
Walthamstow Assembly Hall (Forest Road,
E17 4JD) on Friday 1 August. Eid-ul-Fitr
is a special day for Muslims as it signies
the end of Ramadan. Attendees enjoyed
a fantastic evening of entertainment,
including a performance by singer SK1,
live music and dancers. The free event,
which was open to all residents, was
part of Waltham Forests Get Together
programme of events which has included
festivals, music and plenty of family-
friendly fun throughout the summer.

paper copy of the consultation
phone 020 8496 3000.
Currently, working age people
who are receiving support through
the CTS scheme are required to
pay at least 15 per cent of their
Council Tax bill. The actual amount
a household pays depends on
individual circumstances.
The funding that Waltham Forest
receives for CTS from central
government is decreasing. Between
1 April 2015 and 31 March 2017
the Council needs to reduce the
cost of the scheme by almost
4.5million.
The Council is proposing that
from 1 April 2015 all working age
residents eligible for CTS will be
required to pay at least 23 per cent
of their bill, and from 1 April 2016 it
is proposed to increase to at least
32 per cent.
An online consultation is open
now, and will close on Monday
20 October. The Council urges
residents who may be affected to
participate and have their say.
More information, including a
list of FAQs and examples of how
individuals, couples and families
with children could be affected, is
available on the Councils website.
Residents who are struggling to
pay their Council Tax, or who have
fallen into arrears, should phone the
Council to discuss an alternative
payment plan or to make a claim
for CTS if eligible.

At 10pm, the lights were
extinguished in the Assembly
Hall and candles were lit to mark
the British Legions Lights Out
campaign, which encouraged
people all over the UK to turn
their lights off as a symbolic act of
reection and hope.

Direct on 020 8496 3000.
Lately, it seems that whenever
you open a newspaper, or start
a conversation around the
ofce water cooler, the subject
of housing and rising property
prices is never too far from
peoples minds.
The need for more homes in
London is well-documented and
local authorities have an important
role to play in encouraging
sustainable home-building in their
boroughs.
Last month, Waltham Forest
launched a four year housing
partnership plan, which identied
the Councils Preferred Housing
Providers for 2014-18. The eight
organisations that make up the
partnership are CBHA/Peabody,
Circle Housing Group, East Thames,
Family Mosaic, Home Group, North
River Alliance, Lovell and Swan
Housing Group.
Funding to build Council
homes
The good news is that Waltham
Forest Council has recently
been successful in bidding for a
9.7million grant from the Greater
London Authority (GLA) to build new
homes for the borough. The Council
can also borrow an additional
7million, if required.
This funding will allow up to 435
much-needed new Council homes
to be built in the borough. The
additional borrowing power will also
allow the Council to carry out major
regeneration and renewal work on
some of its existing estates over the
next three years.
With only 300million extra
borrowing available for the whole
country, Waltham Forest was
allocated the second largest sum
of any London borough. The news
is particularly welcome as the last
time the Council was able to build
new homes was in 2011, when 22
council homes were constructed in
Walthamstow.
Cllr Khevyn Limbajee, Cabinet
Member for Housing, told Waltham
Forest News: This is great news
as its the rst time Waltham Forest
has received such a large amount
of money for new Council homes. It
shows the condence that the GLA
has in us as a borough, and we
hope its the start of a much larger
programme of house building in
Waltham Forest.
Like other London boroughs,
there is a serious shortage of social
housing in Waltham Forest with over
16,000 households currently on the
housing register.
Houses in Multiple
Occupation (HMO)
The Council wants all residents to
enjoy high quality homes, regardless
of whether they are living in social
number of HMOs can affect local
areas by giving a neighbourhood the
feeling of people constantly coming
and going, as well as increasing
incidences of anti-social behaviour,
noise nuisance and enviro-crimes
such as y-tipping.
The introduction of the Article Four
Direction will give greater control over
where new HMOs can be located,
and how local neighbourhoods can
develop and grow.
Cllr Limbajee added: It is
important to note that the majority
of private landlords in Waltham
Forest are law abiding and respect
the rights of their tenants. However,
together with the recent decision to
introduce Selective Licensing across
the borough, we are sending a clear
message that there is no place for
rogue landlords here.
housing or renting privately. As
well as improving and building new
Council homes, Waltham Forest is
also committed to clamping down
on rogue landlords.
One initiative that is being
introduced is an Article Four
Direction regarding Houses in
Multiple Occupation (HMOs), which
will come into effect on Tuesday 16
September.
A HMO is where three or more
unrelated people live together,
usually in separate rooms within the
house. Current government planning
rules give residents the right to
change a house (C3 use class) into
a HMO (C4 use class) without the
need to obtain planning permission
rst.
When the Article Four Direction
comes into effect, if a resident or
landlord wants to make this change
they will need planning permission
from Waltham Forest Council.
The change in policy has been
brought in following concerns
raised by residents and councillors.
It is thought that the growth in the
Waltham Forest Council has four key priorities to improve the lives of residents. In this
edition we look at what is being done to help you and your family by improving housing
in the borough

Knot in my back yard
n Is Japanese Knotweed causing havoc in your garden?
n Residents asked to help in the ght against this damaging and invasive plant
Japanese Knotweed (Fallopia
Japonica), while once
appreciated as an ornamental
plant, is now known to cause
severe damage to property,
reduce land value and be
expensive to remove.
This perennial and extremely
invasive plant has the ability to
grow through tarmac and concrete
and damage the foundations of
buildings. Even the smallest piece
can re-grow and spread both
by natural means and human
intervention.
Causing the spread of Japanese
Knotweed is an offence under
the Wildlife and Countryside Act
1981 and it is the responsibility of
the landowner on which the plant
grows to ensure it is managed
safely.
Although it may take years
to totally eradicate, there are a
number of measures that can be
taken to avoid the spread and
damage to land and property that
this plant can cause.
You can start by identifying
whether you have Japanese
Knotweed in your garden. In early
spring red/purple shoots appear
from the ground and grow rapidly
to form canes. As the canes grow
the leaves gradually unfurl and turn
green.
The plants are fully grown by
early summer and mature canes
are hollow with a distinctive purple
speckle and form dense stands
up to three metres high.
The plant owers in late summer
and produces clusters of spiky
stems covered in tiny creamy-white
owers.
Look out for the stem of the
plant having a bamboo like
appearance, the shovel shaped
leaves and the fact it can grow by
10cm a day.
There are various approaches
you can take to control the spread
of Japanese Knotweed and
primarily these involve spraying the
plant with herbicide that contains
glyphosate. Check the ingredients
on the bottle or ask for advice
at your nearest garden centre
or stockist. You can also cut the
plant back and a combination of
both measures can be even more
effective.
It is very important that you
do not mow or strim Japanese
Knotweed as this could cause
it to spread. Cutting with sharp
hooks, slashers or hand pulling
is recommended to avoid any
spreading.
You should also avoid
chipping Japanese Knotweed
as mechanical chippers dont kill
the plant and if you spread the
chipped material on soil it could
regrow.
The persistence of Japanese
Knotweed rhizomes (underground
stems) makes the plant hard to
eradicate. As a result, treating
Japanese Knotweed can take a
number of years, even though you
may think it looks like it has been
killed after the rst treatment.
If Japanese Knotweed is
regularly pulled up or cut the plant
is weakened and over a number of
years will begin to die off. A good
way of disposing of the plant once
pulled or cut is to thoroughly burn
it on site in a controlled manner,
such as in a metal bin.
While you can dispose of
Japanese Knotweed by taking
it to a deep landll site by prior
arrangement, it must be safely
contained. A specialist contractor
can also take it away for you, but
do not take Japanese Knotweed
material to your local recycling
centre. You should never put
Japanese Knotweed in any of
your wheelie bins, as this risks
spreading it even further.
If you have large stands of
Japanese Knotweed to treat you
may wish to consult a qualied
contractor. Licensed Japanese
Knotweed sprayers must have a
current National Prociency Test
Certicate.
While Waltham Forest Council
does not offer a service to deal
with Japanese Knotweed, its
contractors, Urbaser, offer a
private, paid-for treatment service
and can be contacted on 020 8520
9232. Charges for this service are
payable directly to the contractor.

A bee-autiful
sight
A wildower meadow planted in Kitchener
Road Park, Walthamstow to help Britains
dwindling bee population, was in full
bloom last month. The 600 square
metre meadow, which was organised
by Waltham Forest Friends of the Earth
(WFFoE), and funded through Waltham
Forest Councils Community Ward Forum
scheme, includes poppies, daisies,
borage, cornowers and dill to provide
vital food for pollinating insects such as
bees and butteries. The meadow is part
of WFFoEs Bee Cause campaign, which
seeks to reverse the decline in the UKs
bee populations. A second meadow was
planted at Lloyd Park, and is now also in
bloom. WFFoE Coordinator, Nat Harding,
said: Its so exciting to see the place
bursting with these beautiful wildowers.
The area is absolutely brimming with
bees, and everyone who helped plant the
meadow should be proud.

possible. It is disappointing for
Leytonstone and is not helpful in
Waltham Forests quest to make
the most of the boroughs town
centres and high streets.
Waltham Forest has been one of
the most vocal opponents of the
power of the betting industry in
opening new outlets where there
is already plenty of provision. The
clustering and general proliferation
of betting shops on the high street
can have a detrimental effect on
neighbourhoods and the residents
that live in those communities.
On this occasion the Council
William Hill will open a new branch in Church Lane,
Leytonstone despite protests from the Council and residents
sought to use the powers it has
at its disposal via the Licensing
Committee, but in other instances
the Councils Planning Committee
has similarly fought applications
made by bookmakers.
Just as the Council lost out on
its licensing decision in this most
recent example, so earlier this year
the national Planning Inspectorate
overturned decisions made to
refuse permission for Paddy Power
to open two new betting shops in
the borough, allowing a change of
use and dismissing the Councils
arguments around associated crime
and the proliferation and clustering
of betting shops.

LOCAL COUNCIL TAX
SUPPORT SCHEME
CONSULTATION
Have your say on proposed changes to the
Local Council Tax Support scheme
From Monday 11 August 2014 to Monday 20 October 2014,
wed like to hear your thoughts on proposals to change how the
current Local Council Tax Support scheme works.
Why are these changes taking place?
The funding the Council receives from Government to cover the cost of the Local Council
Tax Support scheme is decreasing. Between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2017, the Council
needs to reduce the cost of the scheme by nearly 4.5million. The Council can make this
saving by reducing the amount of Council Tax support available and requiring all working
age residents eligible to receive Council Tax Support to pay more of their Council Tax.
Currently, working age residents receiving Council Tax support are required to pay at least
15% of their Council Tax. Under the new scheme, the percentage to be paid will increase.
There are two options for how the new scheme may look and how this increase could be
implemented.

Music takes over Walthamstow
n Popular four-day music festival returns to
Walthamstow in September
n Stow Festival will include over 100 different
performers
Preparations for the fourth
annual Stow Festival
Walthamstows award-winning
community-led music festival
are well underway, with the
event set to return to E17 from
Thursday 11 to Sunday 14
September.
With more than 100 performers
taking part in 35 events, there is
sure to be something to suit all
musical tastes.
And while most summer festival-
goers have to contend with both
blazing sunshine and the traditional
festival mud bath, Stow Festival
visitors need do no more than nd
their nearest participating venue,
safe in the knowledge that they
can enjoy quality music in their
neighbourhoods, and with not a
chemical toilet in sight!
Stow Festival is a not-for-prot
organisation, managed by a
committee of ve volunteers. The
committee works closely with
local partners such as musical
organisations, venues, businesses
and the Council.
Emma Betts, Co-Chair of Stow
Festival, told Waltham Forest News:
This years Stow Festival will be the
biggest and most varied we have
ever put on. We have something for
everyone, from classical and electro
beats to rock and country, and
everything in between. It should be
a thoroughly enjoyable four days!
The festival begins with an
evening of musical comedy
featuring veteran writer and
comedian Barry Cryer. Barry, a
panellist on BBC Radio 4s Im
Sorry I Havent a Clue, will appear
at the Red Imp Comedy Club, at Ye
Olde Rose and Crown Theatre Pub
(Hoe Street, E17 4SA) on Thursday
11 September.
Other headliners include maverick
singer-songwriter John Otway, who
will perform at Ye Olde Rose and
Crown with local favourites Steve
White and the Protest Family on
Friday 12 September. Meanwhile,
The November Five and Thee
Faction will join forces with Northern
Soul night Walls of Heartache for a
oor-lling Saturday night Rock n
Soul Revue.
Two historically signicant venues
are participating for the rst time.
Vestry House Museum (Vestry
Road, E17 9NH) will host a musical
tribute to the fallen of the Great War
on Sunday 14 September, while the
William Morris Gallery (Forest Road,
E17 4PP) hosts electro collective
Innoversions for an evening of video
projections and electronic music on
Friday 12 September.
And, as with previous years, local
musicians and performers will be
well-represented. Earlier this year,
the committee encouraged local
bands, singers, musicians and DJs
to apply to play.
Stow Festival Co-Chair, Nick
Bason, said: We had a tremendous
response to our call for musicians,
with more than 150 people sending
us samples of their work.
The Buxton Experience who
won a schools battle of the bands
event, will perform at Walthamstow
Town Square (High Street, E17 7JN)
on Saturday 13 September. There
will also be a showcase of teenage
singer/songwriters at Arubar
Lounge (524 Forest Road, E17
4NB) on Friday 12 September.
Getting young people involved is
something thats very important to
us, and has been in the committees
constitution since the festival began.
I think its great to give younger
musicians the chance to perform
to a crowd, which is perhaps
something that theyve not done
before.
Nick added: Lots of people
have been telling us that theyre
really looking forward to this years
event. Many people have said they
rst heard a favourite band at Stow
Festival, and its great to think that
people could discover something
new right here in our home
borough.
The organisers are also on the
lookout for potential volunteers.
Nick said: We are looking for local
people to lend a hand. This could
be anything from taking tickets
and directing people to helping
set up equipment. We will provide
training and a festival t-shirt for
all volunteers. And of course we
will try to make sure they see the
gigs they want to when theyre not
volunteering!
To help visitors plan which gigs
they want to see, 5,000 copies
of the Stow Festival programme
will be available to pick up from
participating venues around
Walthamstow from today (Monday
25 August). You can also see the
full schedule on the festival website,
or download the new Smartphone
app.

Community
Battle Bus
returns home
Stow residents caught a glimpse of
Walthamstows past, when a 1914
B-type Battle Bus made two stops in
E17 last month. The bus stopped at
Walthamstow Bus Station, then visited
the site of the former AEC factory in
Blackhorse Lane, where it was built
in 1914. One of only four surviving
B-type London buses, No. B2737 was
restored as part of London Transport
Museums First World War centenary
commemorations. During World War
I more than 1,000 London buses,
their civilian drivers and mechanics
were taken to the Western Front. The
buses were used to transport troops,
as ambulances and even as lofts for
carrier pigeons. In September, the bus
will be given a war-time makeover, by
painting it khaki and boarding up the
windows. It will then tour the battleelds
of Northern France and Belgium to
commemorate the sacrices made by
so many, including transport workers,
during the war.

Shrieks, tears and laughter
were the order of the day on

discovered whether their hard
work had led to the A-level and

With university and sixth form
places hanging in the balance,
for most students opening their
results envelope was a daunting
experience that could potentially
open up a world of opportunity and
pave the way to their dream career.
Some were joined by their
parents, while others huddled with
their friends urging each other to
do the dreaded envelope opening
rst.
On both days, teaching staff
were on hand to help the students
celebrate and, where necessary,
make important calls to universities
and UCAS the body through
which students apply for university
places to help them secure
places if their results were better or
worse than predicted.
Over the coming months, the
results will be moderated before
nal gures are published by
the Department for Education in
January 2014.
