  • SWT Housing Newsletter 2020
    WINTER 2020 Housing News Great Homes for Local Communities Introduction from Cllr Francesca Smith (Housing Portfolio Holder) Welcome to our December issue of the Somerset West and Taunton Housing Newsletter. Going forward we intend to produce a newsletter for you to read every quarter. The next one will be due in spring and you can also find this newsletter online at www.somersetwestandtaunton.gov.uk. We have all been through so much this year, especially with lockdowns during the year. Just as we were gaining momentum after the first lockdown, we had to lock down again. We will of course continue to support our residents during the global pandemic and reduce the risk of spreading the coronavirus. Despite, the difficulties this year, the Housing Directorate has continued to deliver against their objectives of delivering more new homes, providing great customer services and improving our existing homes and neighbourhoods. I hope you enjoy reading about the great things that have been achieved in this edition. The future of Local Government still remains subject to change and I wrote to you in November to make you aware of those changes. You may wish to look through the “Stronger Somerset” (www. strongersomerset.co.uk) and “One Council” (www.onesomerset.org.uk) information to familiarise yourself with the current situation. Lastly but certainly not least “I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!” Annual Report 2019/2020 Highlights 83% of our Deane Helpline Our Debt & customers rated the service Benefit Advisor they received as excellent helped 444 tenants We spent 7.9 million repairing, maintaining and We completed 41 major improving your homes and disability adaptations and communal areas.

  • Newsletter Aug 2012 for the Parishes of Bickenhall, Curland, Orchard Portman with Thurlbear and Staple Fitzpaine
    “Working Together for a Better Community” Issue No 5 Newsletter Aug 2012 For the Parishes of Bickenhall, Curland, Orchard Portman with Thurlbear and Staple Fitzpaine Virtually every corner of the British Isles has been owned and tilled, cropped and grazed for at least 7,000 years. There is hardly a square yard of land that has not been utilised by someone since the arrival of Neolithic man; the landscape we love and admire is almost entirely man-made. We don’t own the land; we’re merely looking after it. elcome to the fifth issue of the Neroche Villages’ Newsletter, which hopes to satisfy the need identified in the Parish Plan for a ‘hard copy’ local news and information medium delivered free to every household in Neroche Parish. The aim of this publication is to improve communication within the Parish by providing news and information on a wide variety of subjects and issues. 1 Newsletter Foreword David Fothergill (Somerset County Councillor) - June 2012 In my role as County Councillor I get to see a wide cross section of newsletters, sadly some appear tired and lacking enthusiasm, seemingly unloved apart from a few dedicated producers. I am delighted to say that the Neroche Villages Newsletter is totally the opposite of any of these criticisms; it is vibrant, interesting, informative and reflects the community it serves. A very big well done is deserved by all the team, from editor to volunteer deliverers, who seem to take the self-funding newsletter from strength to strength. It seems difficult to believe but in ten months’ time (where has the last three years gone?!) we will be electing a new County Council.

    BISHOPS HULL WAR MEMORIAL Erected 1921 BISHOPS HULL WAR MEMORIAL Index: page Introduction 1 Somerset County Gazette Report 1921 2 – 3 Memories of Bishops Hull 3 Those Remembered on the War Memorial 4 - 36 Memorial Board in Bishops Hull Church 37 - 40 Second World War Names 41 - 46 Extra Names 47 Sources 48 Introduction. The Bishops Hull Family History Group group holds monthly meetings at the Frank Bond Centre and is one of the many activities organised by the centre. In 2013 Bishops Hull Parish Council awarded a grant to the Family History Group with a view to research those names that appear on the War Memorial, to recognise the sacrifice of the men associated with Bishops Hull. It must be remembered that at the time of the First World War Bishops Hull covered a larger geographical area than the present Parish. It included parts of the present Galmington, and Comeytrowe, Rumwell and extended into Taunton as far as Castle Street, Tangier. The County Gazette reported that the War Memorial was unveiled and dedicated on Sunday 6th.November 1921, from this report it is clear that there were 34 names engraved on the monument when it was first erected. In “My memories of Bishops Hull”, published in February 2001, Christine Quartly recalls that the names of the fallen in the First World War had become so eroded on the memorial that in 1993 a new plaque was dedicated. This bronze plaque lists 29 names. The research has proved that not only were names omitted from this 1993 plaque but other errors have been made, we have highlighted these in our findings.
