  • Summary Strategic Plan for 2014-19 Royal Devon & Exeter NHS
    Summary Strategic Plan for 2014-19 Royal Devon & Exeter NHS Foundation Trust Introduction Welcome to the Royal Devon & Exeter’s summary strategic plan 2014-19. The summary provides an over view of the Trust’s strategic plan and covers our corporate strategy, the context and market analysis for the Trust, our plans and supporting initiatives and a summary of our financial projections. The Trust continues to provide good quality healthcare to the communities it serves achieving the highest ratings from Monitor and the CQC. The Trust has met its regulatory targets, it has reduced cancellations for elected patients and delivers high quality, safe and sustained care despite the demographic and financial constraints it faces. Going forward, the scale of the financial and demographic challenges, and the need to substantially change the way in which healthcare is delivered, means that what the Trust does and how it does it will look significantly different at the end of this period in comparison to today. However, I am confident that, in working closely with our partners, having a strong sense of what matters and who matters, a robust governance system and a corporate model that ensures that the voice of our key stakeholders are listened to and acted on as a public benefit corporation, we can continue to provide high quality care to the people of Devon and beyond. James Brent Chairman 1 Corporate Strategy The Trust has developed a Corporate Strategy for 2014/15 to 2018/19, which forms the context for our Strategic Plan. The Corporate Strategy sets out our vision, values and strategic objectives.

  • Report by Mrs S Squire, Parish Clerk, On
    REPORT BY MRS S SQUIRE, PARISH CLERK, ON ATTENDANCE AT A MEETING ON THURSDAY, 20 AUGUST 2015 AT THE GUILDHALL, BARNSTAPLE ORGANISED BY BARNSTAPLE TOWN COUNCIL TO LOOK AT POSSIBLE WAYS OF MANAGING GRASS AND VERGE CUTTING DUE TO A REDUCTION IN THIS CARRIED OUT BY DEVON COUNTY COUNCIL. Mr Will Austin, Barnstaple Town Clerk introduced himself and said that the invitation to the Meeting had been extended to all Parish and Town Clerk’s in the North Devon Council area. Five Clerks were present, representing South Molton Town Council, Braunton Parish Council, Fremington Parish Council, Mr T Squire representing Atherington, Bishops Tawton, Bratton Fleming, East & West Buckland and Goodleigh Parish Councils and myself representing Ashford, Berrynarbor, Chulmleigh, East Worlington, Georgeham, Horwood Lovacott and Newton Tracey, Kentisbury & Trentishoe and Romansleigh Parish Councils. A Councillor from Ilfracombe and a Councillor from North Molton were also there. Mr Austin explained that DCC had agreed to hand over verge maintenance in Barnstaple to the Town Council. Barnstaple has a sponsorship scheme in place with DCC which allowed businesses, community groups and individuals to take on green and planted areas. The relevant Licence is obtained and no fee is charged. 21 areas are sponsored in this way, some of which have a sponsorship sign. In connection with the sign, I asked about planning permission which was acknowledged as necessary. Barnstaple Town Council organise this on behalf of the people who have sponsored the particular area as it would be advertising the company or group. Disposal of green waste was discussed at length. Mr Austin advised that North Devon Council charge £50 per van load of green waste to dispose of this which is the responsibility of DCC.

  • Summer 2017 Newsletter from Railfuture Wessex Branch
    Summer 2017 Newsletter from Railfuture Wessex Branch Chairman’s Message Well here we go again with another newsletter, the big news being the winning of the South West franchise by First/MTR. To date we do not think the contract between them and Department for Transport has been completed and so we continue just with a watching brief. The Company’s first public offering *Improving South Western Railway looks at first sight to be good, but on closer study it seems to promise little. We will have to do much work to understand where these improvements can be delivered … and how! Passengers will not be interested in a 10% journey time saving if intermediate stops are to be cut. No doubt this will be the subject of a consultation in due course. In the meantime, good luck to Andy Mellors who is the new MD of South Western Railway, previously having been GWR Engineering Director. *read it online here: http://www.firstgroupplc.com/about-firstgroup/uk-rail/improving-south-western-railway.aspx On the West of England Line (Waterloo-Salisbury-Exeter), we can see no benefits from the new franchise: no new trains, and a journey time saving from Salisbury to Waterloo that can only be achieved by cutting out Woking and Clapham Junction stops. Railfuture is set against that and will mobilise passengers and members to say “no” when the consultation appears. Why the DfT specifies such matters which have no passenger benefit, we do not know … but we will work with First/MTR, local MP’s and rail authorities to ensure long term passenger benefits accrue.

  • Cetaceans of South-West England
    CETACEANS OF SOUTH-WEST ENGLAND This region encompasses the Severn Estuary, Bristol Channel and the English Channel east to Seaton on the South Devon/Dorset border. The waters of the Western Approaches of the English Channel are richer in cetaceans than any other part of southern Britain. However, the diversity and abundance declines as one goes eastwards in the English Channel and towards the Severn Estuary. Seventeen species of cetacean have been recorded in the South-west Approaches since 1980; nine of these species (32% of the 28 UK species) are present throughout the year or recorded annually as seasonal visitors. Thirteen species have been recorded along the Channel coast or in nearshore waters (within 60 km of the coast) of South-west England. Seven of these species (25% of the 28 UK species) are present throughout the year or are recorded annually. Good locations for nearshore cetacean sightings are prominent headlands and bays. Since 1990, bottlenose dolphins have been reported regularly nearshore, the majority of sightings coming from Penzance Bay, around the Land’s End Peninsula, and St. Ives Bay in Cornwall, although several locations along both north and south coasts of Devon are good for bottlenose dolphin. Cetaceans can also been seen in offshore waters. The main species that have been recorded include short- beaked common dolphins and long-finned pilot whales. Small numbers of harbour porpoises occur annually particularly between October and March off the Cornish & Devon coasts. CETACEAN SPECIES REGULARLY SIGHTED IN THE REGION Fin whale Balaenoptera physalus Rarer visitors to offshore waters, fin whales have been sighted mainly between June and December along the continental shelf edge at depths of 500-3000m.

  • Tunnels Beaches North Devon SS516479
    Tunnels Beaches North Devon SS516479 View over the coves towards Crewkorne Cove and the Ladies’ Pool Beach Profile for Coastwise North Devon Janet and Robert Down Introduction and Historical Background No description of Tunnels Beaches is complete without an overview of their history and place in the development of Ilfracombe. The beaches are unique in North Devon for their mixture of atmosphere, ambience and commercialism. Tunnels Beaches are part of the seaside and harbour town of Ilfracombe, and have an interesting history. The town has long been a fishing and trading port, with the natural harbour enhanced by a Georgian jetty. In the late 1700s Ilfracombe became a fashionable spa and sea-bathing destination for wealthy Georgians and a number of hotels, guest houses and public rooms were established. Bathing was centred round Raparree Cove to the East of the harbour and in 1803 the town’s status as a resort was confirmed by its inclusion in the national “Guide to all the Watering and Sea Bathing Places”. The coast on either side of Ilfracombe is deeply indented because of geological folding, and prior to this surge in popularity two sheltered coves, Wildersmouth and Crewkhorne, about half a mile west of the harbour had been extensively used by smugglers, mainly because they were inaccessible by land except for the very agile at low tide. It is also recorded that, even earlier, William de Tracy hid in one of the caves here after the murder of Thomas a Beckett. He was one of the four knights who Page 2 of 7 responded to Henry II’s reputed question “will no one rid me of this turbulent priest ?” when the King and his Archbishop fell out badly in 1170.

  • Riverside Park & Country Club
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 40 years of Community Information in South Molton It was back in February 1979 that local people agreed that South Molton should be the focus for a national project researching the information needs of rural areas and how to meet them. The “Community Information Project” was run by the British Library, Devon County Council, the Citizens’ Advice Bureau and the Community Council of Devon with David Venner as Project Officer. The Community Information Centre opened at 1, East Street in 1980 providing local access to advice and information services previously only available at a distance, as well as bringing existing local services together into a one stop shop. The network of Village Representatives was set up, nominated by Parish Councils, Women's Institutes and Churches, and this Newsletter was start- ed with their help to provide an exchange of information in the 24 parishes in and around South Molton. Several of the initial organisations and this Newsletter moved over to 125, East Street at the Amory Centre in 2008 under the aegis of South Molton Town Council and North Devon District Council - and community infor- mation is still going strong! A wide variety of organisations have come and gone over the years and “Pirate Project”, again based in South Molton, introduced information technology, extending and improving access to advice and infor- mation enormously. Local information became available both on line and in hard copy as a series of Who’s Whos for every Parish and for interest groups such as the elderly, young people and disabled. Local Information is now available to all on the internet - and so is the Community News - with hard copy still circulated throughout the area by the volunteer Village Representatives network.
