Wirral West committee seeks community reps Community-minded residents from Wirral West parliamentary constituency area are being invited to apply for a place on a committee that plays a major part in local decision-making. Wirral West Constituency Committee is looking to recruit community representatives aged 18 or over. Applicants must either live in the communities covered by Wirral West Constituency or operate within one of those wards as a member of a community group or simi- lar. The wards covered by Wirral West Constituency are Greasby, Frankby and Irby, Hoylake and Meols, Pensby and Thingwall, Upton and West Kirby and Thurstaston. Cllr Jeff Green, who chairs the Wirral West Constituency Committee, said: “We are looking for enthusiastic people who want to make a difference in their communi- ty. The committee actively seeks the views of people in Wirral West in shaping its activities, and our community representatives are a hugely important part of this.” Community representatives provide valuable expertise and experience to help inform the discussion at constituency committee meetings and work with local councillors and the constituency team to actively engage with residents and communities and feedback local views into decision-making. Shortlisted applicants will be invited to attend an informal interview. Those who are successful and co-opted by the Committee will be expected to attend four evening Constituency Committee meetings per year, held in public at venues across the con- stituency area. Existing community representatives are welcome to reapply. An application form is available to download at www.wirral.gov.uk/communityrepresentative Closing date is: 12 noon on Friday 31st March 2016.

If I do not do this constantly, then I am always in danger of projecting my own issues onto others and causing them further damage. It is for this reason that all our therapists and trainers at the Centre are in ongoing personal therapy them- selves. It is also why all our training has a strong experiential element and the Foundation Course is no exception. Topics on the course include The Dynamic Life Cycle What it means to be human Loss and Bereavement Sexuality Transference and Projection Self-care and many more … all in the context of group discussion, work in pairs, observed listening, role play, art work, meditation and sharing of personal journeys as well as the teaching input. There is no written work although participants are encouraged to keep a personal journal throughout.

This is a horse, cycle and pedestrian route, which has undergone a recent renovation, the path provides some wonderful views over the Dee Estuary to Wales. It passes the Thurstaston Visitor Centre being the Information Centre for 30 30 Wirral’s Coast, before passing through Heswall and Parkgate where high tides flood the saltmarsh and provide spectacular birdwatching during the winter months. Thousands of wading birds take to the air and birds of prey can be seen perched waiting for an opportunity… 31 31 West Wirral (Dee Estuary) West Kirby - Caldy (Cubbins Green) 1 Wirral Country Park & The Wirral Way Wirral Country Park was the first designated Country Park in Britain. It was opened in 1973 and covers a 75 hectare site. It is a linear park which follows the route of the disused Hooton to West Kirby railway line adjacent to Wirral’s Dee Coastline. The former railway line has been converted into an off-road route for walkers, cyclists and horse-riders., now known as the ‘Wirral Way’, this forms the backbone of the country park and is 6 miles long from West Kirby to the boundary where it continues into Cheshire and onto Hooton. 3 Ashton Park, West Kirby This Green Flag awarded Park was laid out in 1899 and it covers some 5 hectares, either side of the Wirral Way.

    Leader of the Conservative Group Councillor Jeff Green Wirral Borough Council Town Hall Brighton Street Wallasey Wirral CH44 8ED 0151 691 8652 [email protected] The Rt. Hon. Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government Department for Communities and Local Government Fry Building 2 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DF 1st August 2016 Dear Mr. Javid I am writing to request the intervention of the DCLG to enforce the Code of Practice for Local Authority Publicity following a decision by the Authority’s Cabinet to publish a monthly newspaper and deliver this to all households and businesses in the Borough. We note that the Department has issued notice to several authorities following similar such publications, notably the Royal Borough of Greenwich. We believe that Wirral Council’s publication (up to 34 pages, produced monthly, distribution of 170,000 copies to every household in the parliamentary constituencies of Wirral West, Wirral South, Wallasey and Birkenhead) is in clear breach of the Code. The cost to the taxpayer of producing this publication will be £237,000 per annum, with around 20% of the publication allocated to commercial advertising, thus affecting the independent press and media in the Borough. When this idea was agreed by Cabinet we were clearly concerned that the proposal would contravene the guidance set out in the Recommended Code of Practice for Local Authority Publicity, specifically the frequency of publication and that it was an inappropriate use of taxpayers’ money. We therefore used the appropriate provisions in the Council’s constitution to ‘Call-in’ the decision.
