Chiltern Hills Academy, Chartridge Lane, Chesham, Buckinghamshire HP5 2RG

Chesham Rugby Club relies on individuals who kindly give their precious time to help run the club and develop our players; there wouldn’t be a Club without these helpers, affectionately known as the ‘Chesham Fairies’. Three of our ‘Fairies’ have collectively volunteered over 65 years of their time – Treasurer, Fixtures and Premises Guru Dick King (32 years), Chairman Simon Harris (18 years) and Club Secretary Steven Morris (15 years). However, it is during the last 10 years as the Executive Committee they have been a true force in leading the Club through difficult negotiations with the Academy, Chiltern District Council, Bucks County Council and the RFU to bring us a new clubhouse and wonderful social area. They have set clearly defined development plans for the Club, which has ensured growth across all sections of the Club and helped foster the Club ethos of inclusivity. Their efforts and leadership have given Chesham Rugby Club a really strong future. It is therefore with a heavy heart that I announce they are all stepping down from the Executive Committee. They deserve a well-earned rest and can now enjoy the fruits of their labour from the side-lines. I’m sure everyone will join me in thanking them for their unwavering commitment to making Chesham Rugby Club a home from home. Having said that there is still lots to do. Steven will be spending the next few months completing the work on our leases. In order to give him the time and space to do this Claire Moore has kindly agreed to administer the Club Secretary email address; [email protected]. Even though the hard bits and heavy lifting have been done we can’t become complacent as we need to continue to develop and grow. There are exciting times ahead and we are looking for individuals who would be interested in leading the Club on the next stage of its journey. If you would be interested in leading and shaping our future Club please let me know as we would like to have successors identified before the AGM in May 2019. I would like to thank you all in advance for your patience during this transition period and as the new appointees get up to speed.

Report Providing a Tourism Baseline in the HS2 Corridor
The volume and value of tourism in the HS2 corridor of the Chilterns AONB A baseline study Prepared by: TSE Research Services 40 Chamberlayne Road Eastleigh Hampshire SO50 5JH Contributors and dedication Dedication This report is dedicated to Shirley Judges, (1949-2014), a passionate supporter and ardent protector of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Without Shirley’s infectious enthusiasm this project would not have happened. Shirley gave unstintingly of her time and energy to protect the area she loved from HS2, but she also knew the importance of assembling robust evidence, using recognised research methods and arming oneself with the relevant facts and figures to fight a cause. Drive and determination had to matched by the evidence. Shirley wanted a proper baseline study on the value of tourism threatened by HS2. At her specific request we raised the money and commissioned Tourism South East, a specialist tourist organisation with a research arm, to undertake the study. The Chilterns Conservation Board, where Shirley had been a dedicated board member for 10 years, kindly agreed to manage the project. Shirley’s wish was to petition to the Select Committee. Through this report she will.

I shall focus on some of the creativity we have valued in Bucks SACRE this year both from our members and during our visits to schools. In addition, we receive wise counsel from our Education Officer at Bucks CC, Katherine Wells and our RE Adviser Bill Moore. At our meeting in October we learned that Suma Din our Muslim deputy had become a school governor and would no longer fulfil her role with SACRE. However, her legacy to us is her book published by the Institute of Education Press entitled ‘Muslim Mothers and their children’s schooling.’ See SACRED 7, for a review. (For this and all other references to SACRED see the website at the end of this section). In her contribution to SACRED 6 Suma wrote; From the Qur’an, I understand my role as being a ‘steward’ on this earth; one who will take care, take responsibility and hand on a legacy to those who come after them.

It was highlighted that the neighbourhood survey results have some confidential information within the free text. Please only share the bar graph with others and not the free text. All agreed. TVP Chiltern Area Policing Priorities: A reduction in residential burglary A reduction in serious violence An improvement in victim satisfaction Continued improvement in our response to domestic abuse victimisation An increase in confidence of victims of hidden harm to report incidents and crimes A continued improvement in the identification and safeguarding of children and adults vulnerable to exploitation. A continued increase in the confidence of rural communities to report crime A continued improvement in our response to fraud (including cyber fraud) A discussion was had to show that the above priorities set by the Police and Crime Commissioner is often different to the priorities that the neighbourhood wish to see being addressed. #cleanChesham is taking place this Saturday. This is a great example of the community (led by EC) addressing a local issue (littering) rather than expecting the police to tackle it.
