Making Places 33 Shaping the Future of Stroud District Making Places 33 Shaping the future of Stroud District In developing a Local Plan for the District, it is important to have a vision of the kind of place we want to be living in, working in or visiting in the future. This chapter takes a closer look at the opportunities, needs, priorities and distinct characteristics of different parts of the District, and how particular places are likely to be affected by strategic growth. Stroud District Local Plan 39 Making Places: shaping the future of Stroud District Making Places: a spatial vision for the Stroud District 3.1 The Local Plan is founded on an over-arching vision for the District as a whole, which is a cornerstone of the development strategy, and is set out in Chapter 2 . 3.2 Derived from this, Chapter 3 sets out a spatial vision which consists of a series of eight place-making ‘mini visions’ for distinct parts of the District. Using facts and figures gathered about all the District’s parishes, together with outcomes from public consultation, the spatial vision aims to focus the over-arching goals of the main vision and the strategic objectives in a way that responds more specifically to local priorities, issues and needs. 3.3 Whilst some places in the District have a need for development or are suited to strategic levels of growth; others are not. The spatial vision identifies areas that are likely to see significant changes; and areas that will not. It pictures what the various levels of change or growth could mean for the District’s diverse communities, settlements and landscapes. It sets out the envisaged and desired effects that the development strategy should have on particular parts of the district, including information about the proposed strategic growth areas, the kind of development that could happen at each place and how this is intended to help achieve the overall vision for the District’s future. 3.4 The Plan’s spatial vision for the District (and the eight ‘mini visions’ that feed into it) is illustrated in the Vision Diagram 1.0 (opposite). Over the following pages, the eight ‘mini visions’ for the eight parish cluster areas are set out in detail.

The entry for Dursley and Berkeley, which also covered Cambridge, Uley and Newport, gave a comprehensive listing of the many trades people in the area together with a good gazetteer of what the town was like at that time. The entry for Dursley and Berkeley is found on pages 105-116. This transcription was carried out by Andrew Barton of Dursley in 2005. All punctuation and spelling of the original is retained. In addition the basic layout of the original work has been kept, although page breaks are likely to have fallen in different places.

A3: Presentation and discussion on Social Prescribing. In the absence of Louise Ayliffe, Angela King had kindly agreed to speak on the topic. Angela had previously been a Village Agent. The Village and Community Agents scheme, managed by Gloucestershire Rural Community Council, had worked across the county helping thousands of older people and communities gain better access to services, information and assistance. However, now the Village and Community Agents have combined with the GP Social Prescribing scheme to become a new service called Community Wellbeing Agents and many former Agents have transferred to the new scheme. There are various Community Wellbeing providers in Gloucestershire. In this area, The Independence Trust has been commissioned to offer the service in Stroud & Berkeley Vale and now in our local Primary Care Network (PCN), the Stroud Cotswold Network (SCN) .The Social Prescribing scheme is free and confidential for anyone over the age of 16.

  • Review of the Year 2017-18
    REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2017-18 The Annual Report of Cotswold District Council COTSWOLD DISTRICT COUNCIL Welcome to Cotswold District Council’s Review of the Year for 2017-18 We have had yet another good year in 2017/18, addressing a wide range of top tasks and also achieving planned savings of over £200,000. Our success stems in part from our partnership (within the Publica Group) - with three other councils - West Oxfordshire, Forest of Dean and Cheltenham. Through working within this partnership, we managed to freeze our portion of the Council Tax bill for 2017/18 at a time when the vast majority of authorities increased costs. Previously we froze our share in 2016/17, reduced it by 5% in 2015/16, reduced it by 3% in 2014/15 and by 5% in 2013/14 . The freeze for 2017/18 meant that the actual amount being charged was lower than the figure ten years ago. In other words, the typical payment for a resident in a Band D property would have seen a real terms cut of 25% over the last six years. We have also frozen charges for car parking and garden waste collections. We can also report further progress on several flood alleviation projects in the Cotswold district. Additionally, we delivered 247 affordable homes during 2017/18, comfortably ahead of our goal of delivering a minimum of 150 homes. Thanks to the efforts of our residents we continue to achieve the highest levels of recycling in Gloucestershire (almost 60%% of all household waste is recycled, reused or composted).
