  • Bollington to Tytherington School Transport (Provided by Councillor Amanda Stott)
    Appendix 1 Background: Bollington to Tytherington School Transport (provided by Councillor Amanda Stott) Bollington’s senior school closed in 1966, at which time Tytherington High school was designated as the senior school for Bollington children. The route between Bollington and the school involves crossing the Silk Road (A523) and a free bus service was provided to transport the children to school. In 2012/13 Cheshire East reviewed this arrangement and proposed that the children use a ‘safe walking route’ along the Middlewood Way. Councillor Michael Jones was the leader of the council at the time and having walked the route totally refuted the suitability of the route as safe for children to walk to school. In 2016 this issue was brought back on to the Cabinet agenda and the proposal was again to remove the free bus service as the Middlewood Way was deemed to be a safe walking route – this decision is affecting 171 children. The Middlewood way is a pedestrian route along a disused railway track. It sits in a steep-sided, heavily-wooded cutting which is isolated from residential roads and has no safe exit for a child who feels threatened. Should an emergency incident occur on the Middlewood Way there are issues which would need to be overcome before the emergency services even begin to deal with an incident; be they police, fire or ambulance. 1. Location of incident 2. Vehicle access to the Middlewood Way 3. Lack of mobile phone coverage Such is the geography of Bollington that should the bus be withdrawn, children who live in the Bollington Cross and Kerridge areas will take the shortest walking route to school which will take them across the Silk Road (A523) a route which has been, justifiably, deemed to be an unsafe route.

  • Tedx Macclesfield
    Macclesfield 2018 www.tedxmacclesfield.com #TEDxMacc WELCOME TO TEDX MACCLESFIELD Lynne Jones and Jude D’Souza Organisers Thank you for joining us at the first ever TEDx Macclesfield! Our town has been undergoing a cultural renaissance in the last decade, which has helped put Macclesfield on the map. Musing about what the next step of that journey might look like, we realised that the TEDx talks we found so engaging could further energise the town by sharing big ideas in ways that could both educate and motivate. In addition to tackling existing issues with wit and insight, it provided an opportunity to highlight just how much amazing work is already taking place within our postcode! It has been nine months since the initial idea for the event you are about to be a part of. During that time, we have been on a whirlwind adventure delving into a wide range of topics, meeting an array of fascinating people and discussing all manner of intriguing ideas. None of this would have been possible without their enthusiasm, the generous support of our sponsors or the incredible talent, passion and dedication of our phenomenal volunteers. We hope that the talks will open your mind and change your perspectives, inspiring you to put new ideas into practice and perhaps come together to continue moving Macclesfield forward... WHAT IS TED? Ideas Worth Spreading TED is a nonprofit organisation devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Started as a four-day conference in California 30 years ago, TED has grown to support its mission with multiple initiatives. The two annual TED Conferences invite the world’s leading thinkers and doers to speak for 18 minutes or less.
