7 PUBLIC HEALTH 1815 – 1875. Dirt, disease and public health – why a problem? Population growth, urbanisation and Industrial Revolution. Problems with housing, sanitation, disease and death rates. Impact of cholera epidemics: 1831-2; 1848-9; 1853-4 and 1866-7. Impact of individuals: John Snow, Joseph Bazalgette and Edwin Chadwick. Investigations into the problem and legislation passed - analysing effectiveness. 1848 Public Health Act and the 1875 Public Health Act. Why was there opposition to Public Health Legislation? Persistent problems: disease; housing; pollution (Human and Industrial effluents); water and food. Analysis: How had Public Health changed 1815-75?

8 Location of Sun Street, Nottingham.

9 Document 4 – Case Study of Mr John Kale, a basket maker on Sun Street. What can we learn about Cholera from this source?

10 What is Cholera? Read document 3 – ‘The three stages of Cholera’

11 You are each going to look at a case study of someone who got cholera.  Read through your case study.  Fill in your section of the table. What type of person were they? Gender/age/job/background How may they have contracted the cholera? What conditions did they live in? What symptoms did they have? How quickly did they die/survive?  Write a short script, so that you can talk to the other inspectors as you mingle on Sun Street!!

12 Mingle on Sun Street and find out more about the Cholera epidemic. Complete your table.

13 Feedback 1.In pairs, feedback information onto the board.  1 – Gives a piece of information.  2 – Writes it onto the board. 2. Look at source 5/See the sheet on Lewis Street – you will present your findings to the class!

14 Case study ICase study IICase study III Case study IV What types of people were involved? How may they have contracted the disease? What conditions did they live in? What symptoms did they demonstrate? How quickly did they die, or survive?

15 Can we apply our knowledge to predict how Cholera affect Nottingham? Look at document 5 – find Lewis Square!  Why was Cholera so bad in Lewis Square? (bottom left)  Can we infer what the chances of survival was for people in Sun Street? (similar) – What about more wealthy people?  What do you think needs to be done to solve these issues?  You will then ask for the class’ opinions on your ideas if they have anything to add.

18 Why was dirt, disease and public health an issue in the 19 th Century?

19 Why was dirt, disease and public health an issue in the 19 th century? Lesson Aim: To be able to explain in detail why changes to public health were needed. TASK: Mini whiteboards – Sketch some of the issues with dirt, disease and public health you learnt about last lesson.

20 PUBLIC HEALTH 1815 – 1875. Dirt, disease and public health – why a problem? Population growth, urbanisation and Industrial Revolution. Problems with housing, sanitation, disease and death rates. Impact of cholera epidemics: 1831-2; 1848-9; 1853-4 and 1866-7. Impact of individuals: John Snow, Joseph Bazalgette and Edwin Chadwick. Investigations into the problem and legislation passed - analysing effectiveness. 1848 Public Health Act and the 1875 Public Health Act. Why was there opposition to Public Health Legislation? Persistent problems: disease; housing; pollution (Human and Industrial effluents); water and food. Analysis: How had Public Health changed 1815-75?

21 What makes an effective mind map?  Mini whiteboards – look at the examples.  Make a note of what makes a good mind map. Why do you think I’m getting you to make one as a task?

22 Overcrowding/sanitation The symptoms of Cholera Death Urban growth Inadequate healthcare before 1848 Report on housing in London For your topic, read through the information and highlight key parts.

23 Title: Why was dirt, disease and public health an issue in the 19 th century? Overcrowding/sanitation The symptoms of Cholera Death Urban growth Inadequate healthcare before 1848 Report on housing in London For your topic…..  Make an ‘arm’ E.g. urban growth.  Add key evidence/images.  In a different colour answer the Qs (you could even make a Q section). In this time, I will come round and discuss the Qs with you.

24 Overcrowding/sanitation The symptoms of Cholera Death Urban growth Inadequate healthcare before 1848 Report on housing in London Teach each other….. Complete your mind map with all of the topics.
