Lesson Objectives To identify the key features of the second public health act To evaluate the success of the second public health act To explain the reasons why the second public health act was more successful than the first

Was the First Public Health Act successful? The 1848 Act had limited success. 1) Only 182 towns set up local health boards 2) Sewage disposal and water supplies were improved in some of these areas, but the rest of Britain was left unchanged. 3) Water companies, landlords and builders hated it and would not support it. 4) Others still believed it was wrong for the Government to interfere. 5)The Times said ‘We would rather take our chance with cholera than be bullied into health’ – even the Press didn’t support it.

What factors by 1860s meant the Government had to act? 1) More deadly and horrific cholera outbreaks in 1854 and 1866 frightened the Government 2) In 1854 Dr John Snow showed that cholera was spread by contaminated water. 3) In 1864 Louis Pasteur demonstrated the germ theory of disease. The need for cleanliness was now scientifically proven 4) By 1870s evidence showed that poor living conditions and disease were connected.

What did the Government do? Lots of bits and pieces! 1869 Government set up Royal Sanitary Commission – found clean water was still patchy and said that all laws should be ‘uniform, universal and imperative.’ 1871 – Government responded by forming Local Government Board to oversee public health 1872 Public Health Act divided country into ‘sanitary areas’ each with a medical officer of health in charge. 1875 – Artisans’ Dwellings Act – Councils were given power to buy up slum areas of housing and knock them down to build newer more hygienic ones.

What was the 2nd Public Health Act?

What was the 2nd Public Health Act? Brought together all previous laws under one act Councils HAD to provide street lighting, clean water, drainage and sewage disposal Councils HAD to employ medical inspectors.

Why was the 2nd Public Health Act more successful than the 1st Public Health Act? Factors? People? Events?
