Parish Council Office Owing to the current Government Guidelines, the Parish Council Office is closed to members of the public. Therefore, all office-based staff are working from their respective homes but are still contactable by phone or email. 20mph Speed Zones The Parish Council has been approached regarding vehicles speeding through the Parish.

Please express your views by either emailing the Parish Council on [email protected] or writing to the Deputy Parish Clerk. Citizens Advice Bureau The weekly rural outreach service continues each Tuesday morning between 9am and 1pm.

A Date for Your Diary! Winscombe and Sandford Annual Parish Assembly To be held virtually on Monday 12th April 2021 at 7:30pm The Annual Parish Assembly is an opportunity for members of the public to learn what activities the various Organisations in the Parish carry out during the year. It is also an opportunity to raise any issues with the Parish Council. The following organisations have contributed during previous years: Youth Club, Village Traders, Axe & Cheddar Sea Cadets, Churchill & Langford Minibus Society, Sporting Clubs These organisations/items will hopefully be present/covered in this meeting: National Grid Works, Banwell By- pass, ‘20 is plenty scheme’. Parish Council Resignations/Appointments Sadly we must report the resignation of Councillor Vic Slater. His knowledge and perception will be missed particularly during the Parish Council meetings of the Planning Group, the War Memorial and Recreation Ground Group and the Employment, Finance and Policies Committee. Following two recent resignations we are fortunate to have gained the services of two parishioners to act as councillors. John Witcher John has now retired but used to work with data protection and freedom of information procedures for local Government Departments and Universities. His interests are music, walking, cycling and very occasionally motor biking. He looks forward to parish maintenance and the protection of its environment. He hopes that people will contact him through his Parish Council email - witcher@winscombeandsandford- pc.gov.uk Tom Adams Tom moved to the Parish in 2020 and has joined the Parish Council in order to help with the maintenance of the parish and to get to know better his neighbours. In his spare time he enjoys walking, horse riding and sport, cricket and rugby in particular. He looks forward to getting more involved with parishioners and the workings of the parish. He can be contacted through his Parish Council email - adams@winscombeandsandford- pc.gov.uk Banwell Bypass This long-awaited road is set to be completed by spring 2024 with work expected to start on the ground in 2023. North Somerset Council is due to appoint a contractor for the design and build process next spring with public consultation being held in the summer. Extensive survey works are currently being undertaken to collect information from land which could lie on the bypass route. The survey work includes looking at ecology, watercourses, ground investigation, topographical and archaeological investigation. If you wish to comment of make an observation, please email: [email protected] Winscombe Community Centre Re-development – from WinSpace As this article is being written, the WCA appointed Architects are putting the final touches to a full planning application to redevelop the Community Centre. This will be the culmination of six years work looking at how to replace the 1960s’ temporary classrooms with a new multi-functional centre which, combined with re-furbishment of the old school, will give the Parish a much-needed facility. The submitted plans and the updates on the progress through planning are being displayed in the notice board outside the Winscombe Community Centre and full details are on our re-development WiNSPACE website (winspace.org.uk) We’re now working on the next phase of the project which is looking at RAISING THE FUNDS and ensuring that the Parish is kept fully up to date on its progress via as many communication channels as possible. However, to make the facility a success and a hub of activities, we would love to hear about your ideas and visions. The 2021 Census The census is coming. By taking part, you can help to inform decisions on services that shape your community, such as schools, doctors’ surgeries and bike lanes. It’s important you fill in your census questionnaire because the information you share affects the life of every single person living in England and Wales. Because these things matter to us all, everyone needs to complete the census. Do not worry, your information is protected by law. That means government officials dealing with payments or services you receive cannot see it. Census Day is Sunday 21 March. You can fill yours in online as soon as you get your access code in the post. If your household circumstances change on Census Day, you can let The Office for National Statistics (ONS) know. If you need help, you can visit www.census.gov.uk where there’s a wide range of support services available. Village Tubbers are urgently needed! You may have admired the colourful flower tubs that are spread throughout the village, several being outside The Woodborough Arms. The one shown here was one of two on the triangle at the end of Church Road, though they have both now been replaced by two tubs that were once cattle troughs. Each village tub is planted and watered by one or two villagers, who we call ‘tubbers’, under the auspices of the Parish Council. If you were a village tubber you would take over, usually, just one of the tubs. You would choose the plants, May and October, plant them when you think is a good time and keep an eye on the tub to be sure it is weed free and does not dry out. All costs would be paid for by the Parish Council through an account that you would be given at Banwell Garden Centre. Once a tubber, there are several parishioners who could give you advice and some practical help if required. If you need any more information and/or would like to become a ‘tubber’ contact Mark Boddy, the ‘tubber in chief, by email, on [email protected] Winscombe Tennis Club Tennis was one of the first sports to be allowed after the previous lockdowns and we expect this to be the case again. To enable as many people as possible to benefit from this outdoor sociable sport, we are planning a range of activities to suit all ages and abilities, including current non-players These are: Open Day planned for 17th April – reduced membership available on day, all ages welcome. Cardio Tennis sessions –adult fitness and fun with a racket, no tennis skills required. Group Coaching sessions– all age groups and skill levels catered for with our new coach. Pay & Play – no membership needed, £6 per hour per court. Play with existing friends or if there is a demand, we are considering a ‘WhatsApp’ group to help bring people together for games. Recent Litter Pick We are sure you will join us in thanking the Strawberry Line Volunteers, Award Land Volunteers and Parish Litter pickers who, following Government guidelines, have done an excellent job clearing the grass verges between Winscombe and Banwell. If you are interested in joining in, please contact us. With your help, we can make our Parish a more attractive place in which to live. Council Meetings Due to the current Government Guidelines and until further notice, meetings, other than those held for the Cemetery & Allotment Working Group, will take place via Zoom. Details of how to join virtually will be on our Parish Council Website a few days before each meeting.

  • Mendip Hills AONB Management Plan 2009 -2014
    Mendip Hills AONB Management Plan 2009 -2014 Chairman’s Foreword The Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) is a naturally beautiful and nationally protected landscape. The role of the AONB Partnership is to ensure that the Mendip Hills retain their unique character and special qualities whilst recognising that it is a place for people to live in, work in and visit This Plan is a revision of the 2004-9 Plan. It sets out what those special qualities are. It has considered current issues and future trends, pressures and challenges and suggests what needs to happen in the future to conserve and enhance this striking landscape. Climate change is already having an impact - we can see the impact of intense rainfall on Black Down exacerbated by increased use of the area for recreation creating water filled gullies. Changes in farming practice are occurring; as food and fuel prices increase bio-fuel crops being planted on the plateau and there are challenges for those working to retain land in environmental stewardship where landowners are attracted by higher grain prices. New development proposed on the fringes of Weston Super Mare and Bristol will bring additional pressures on the Mendip Hills: increased traffic, loss of tranquility and more visitors. It may also bring some additional investment and focus on improvements to access. Influencing and adapting to these changes or external influences are just some of the issues raised in the Plan. How we are going to respond to these challenges is set out in this Plan but the detail of who, what, when, will be contained in the accompanying Delivery Plan which will be updated each year.

  • Report on the Outcomes of Stakeholder Workshops: May 17Th - 19Th 2011
    Report on the outcomes of Stakeholder Workshops: May 17th - 19th 2011 Prepared by 1. CONTENTS 1. Contents 2 2. Executive Summary 3 3. Methodology 7 4. Exeter Stakeholder Workshop 10 5. Bristol Stakeholder Workshop 74 6. Cardiff Stakeholder Workshop 135 2 2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Western Power Distribution (WPD) carried out a significant amount of stakeholder engagement in support of its Business Plan for DPCR5, running from 2010 – 2015. The company is now looking ahead to DPCR6, which runs from 2015 – 2023. WPD is committed to further engagement in order to inform its Business Plan for DPCR6. The purpose of the workshops was to consult ahead of this process in order to get an early indication of its stakeholders’ views on current and future issues. It was the intention of WPD to engage with a broad cross-section of stakeholders from a range of backgrounds and interests in order to identify how they viewed the company’s priorities over the next five years and the next twenty years. Following the success of the three phases of workshops on DPCR5, it was decided that the workshop format was the best way to engage with WPDs’ stakeholders, identify the issues that are important to them, and endeavour to prioritise these issues according to importance. The aim of the workshops was to ask stakeholders for views on which of WPD’s current investment priorities should continue after 2015, and what are the investment priorities for the longer term future. Stakeholders were asked to take part in two separate workshop sessions to discuss priorities under the themes of delivering a low carbon sustainable future, themed “environment”, networks and customer issues of the future themed “networks and customers”.
