In 1993 needs assessment work was carried out in Peterborough specifically
addressing the Kashmiri population. It was carried out by North West Anglia
HA (by Sharon Imtiaz) and The Centre for Research in Ethnic Relations (by
Mark RD Johnson - he is now at Mary Seacole Centre, De Montford University

The initial needs assessment was followed up by a report on the work
undertaken to implement the recommendations by Geeta Pankhania (now
Ethnicity & Equality Manager at North Peterborough PCT - Tel: 01733 882288)
and & Jan Rawdon-Smith
Although there is no specific mention of CHD in the reports and this work
was several years ago, there might have been further work since.
