Impact of Lovebox & Field Day festivals in Victoria Park 2017

Barts Health NHS Trust did not have the information requested.

Dear Barts Health NHS Trust,

Did your Trust experience increased demand during Lovebox/Citadel festival held 14 & 15th July 2017 and Field Day/Mighty Hoopla festival held 2nd & 3rd June in Victoria Park?

How much additional demand was associated with each event – specifically:
• Number of people using your service?
• Number of calls taken?
• Number of incidents responded to?
• Number of violent incidents?
• Number of injuries sustained by any means?

How much additional resourcing was required in terms of:
• Preperation & planning?
• Extra staffing?
• Capacity measures?
• Infrastructure improvements?

Did the Trust have concerns about the safety of either event for:
• Festival attendees?
• Local residents?
• Other park users?

What was the cost to the Trust of meeting the additional demands created by:
• Lovebox 14/7/2017
• Citadel 15/7/2017
• Field Day 2/6/2017
• Mighty Hoopla 3/6/2017

Yours faithfully,

Corinne Clarkson
