6. Co-operation with Voluntary Agencies.
The Borough Council pays for the Medical Officer attending Burdett
Road and Shadwell Voluntary Infant Welfare Centres. In addition, a
Municipal Health Visitor attends twice a week at the Burdett Road Centre.
Dame Colet Centre and Stepney Centre, 587, Commercial Road, are both
attended by a Municipal Health Visitor.
Revisiting is also undertaken for any voluntary area which is in need of
help. This is in addition to the primary visiting, which we undertake for
practically the whole of the Borough, and ensures mutual help and co-operation
between Municipal and Voluntary workers.
