  • Patient Participation Group Newsletter
    Summer 2019 Edition Patient Participation Group Newsletter Your Practice (Waterfoot Medical Practice) We’re changing our name! With new GP partners coming on board at the practice we have decided it’s time for a name change. In consultation with our Patient Participation Group we decided not to stray too far from our current name of Waterfoot Group of Doctors and are opting for Waterfoot Medical Practice. Waterfoot Wildflower Meadow You may have noticed the grass around Waterfoot Medical Practice is being left to grow this summer. This is to encourage the wild flowers to grow for the benefit of the local wildlife, our patients and our staff. We will be managing this area with a yearly cut in early September. The cut grass will then be seeded with a plant called Yellow Rattle and we expect a flower filled meadow to develop over the next few years. If you would like any further information, or you would like to help with the development of the meadow, please get in touch with us at the surgery. Keeping Active Over the summer months our Doctors have been busy taking part in physical challenges, and all for a good cause. On 23rd June Dr Narayan took part in the Big NHS Walk where NHS Trust staff and the local community walked 12 miles whilst raising as much money as possible for our local hospitals. Dr Hinchliffe took on the Race for Life Pretty Muddy on 13th July to raise money for cancer research. This involved racing her way through 5km of muddy obstacles.

Bury's boundaries with Bolton and Rochdale were considered in the context of our review of those metropolitan districts, on which we have already reported to you (Report Numbers 591 and 584 respectively). 2. We are making no proposals for radical change but are making a series of minor proposals to remove anomalies, such as the division of properties by local authority boundaries. Our report explains how we arrived at our proposals. ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE START OF THE REVIEW 3.

  • Environmental Baseline Report PDF 642 KB
    July 2013 Local Flood Risk Management Strategy Strategic Environmental Assessment Scoping Report – Environmental Baseline Report 1 Local Flood Risk Management Strategy SEA Environmental Baseline The collection and review of baseline information is a crucial part of the SEA process. It is essential to gather sufficient baseline information on the current and likely future state of the environment in order to be able to adequately predict and assess the significant effects of a plan. The data collected to characterise the evidence base for the SEA of the strategy has been derived from numerous secondary sources and no new investigations or surveys have been undertaken as part of the scoping process. The information presented in this Scoping Report represents an outline of the evidence base by environmental topics. It may be necessary to collect further data against which to assess the potential environmental effects of the LFRMS with regard to monitoring requirements. 2 1 Introduction 1.1 The Borough of Bury is located in the North West of England, situated within the Greater Manchester metropolitan area. As an integral part of Greater Manchester, Bury has an important role to play in accommodating the spatial priorities for the North West region. Bury also has strong links with parts of Lancashire located, towards the north, via the M66 corridor and Irwell Valley. Bury is bounded to the south by the authorities of Manchester and Salford, to the east by Rochdale, to the west by Bolton and to the north by Rossendale and Blackburn and Darwen. 1.2 Bury benefits from good transport links with the rest of Greater Manchester and beyond, which has led to the Borough’s attractiveness as a commuter area.

Article 1 of Protocol 1 The right of peaceful enjoyment of possessions and protection of property. Site This application relates to a site of approx 1.8ha in area at the head of Cowpe Brook valley. The site is occupied by a series of traditional stone-built mill buildings, with later alterations/additions and other ancillary buildings, totalling 10,300 sq m of floorspace. Besides these buildings, which vary in height up to 3-storeys, there is a 50m high chimney stack and a lodge which occupies broadly a third of the site. This complex is prominent as viewed from Cowpe Road, to which the application site has a 300m frontage on the north side, from a lane running along its west side and from the rising open land around it. From the lodge flows a watercourse which is for the most part culverted as it runs through the application site, with Mill Building B bridging over it.
