It will underpin the development of key outdoor sports, as well as informing an umbrella ‘Outdoor Sports Strategy’ that is under development. The Playing Pitch Strategy has been prepared in line with a methodology published by Sport England, and is informed by a full audit that was undertaken between 2003 and March 2005 in Bexley. The audit identifies the supply of playing pitches in the borough, in public parks, schools and private clubs and the demand for these pitches from clubs and ad hoc sports users in the following sports – football, rugby, cricket and hockey and is the first stage in the development of a full outdoor sports strategy, which will include tennis, netball, outdoor bowls and water sports. The audit provides a benchmark of current supply and demand, and also profiles demand against anticipated changes in population in the borough until 2008. It should be noted that the audit does not include projected increases in population as a result of the Thames Gateway initiatives. This is because the population data does not yet include these figures, and although it is possible to estimate total numbers of population growth, it is not yet possible to accurately break these figures down into constituent age groups and model requirements. The strategy recognises this potential shortfall on the demand-side and suggests ways of addressing this uncertain population growth. It should also be noted that, as with any audit, it is only possible to capture and report on a certain ‘snapshot’ in time, and information contained within the audit for example in relation to team configuration will change over time. Key findings from this audit are: • With the exception of rugby, there are sufficient pitches to meet demand between 2005 and 2008; • The high level of demand for public pitches leads to an on-going requirement for careful planning of pitch requirements on a season-by-season basis by Council officers. Improved monitoring of usage through the sports specific forums will enable a longer term strategic approach to planning of pitch requirements; • The high level of demand for public pitches requires an on-going commitment to a robust pitch maintenance programme. To ensure that pitches can continue to be played at current -and possibly higher- levels, without having a detrimental affect on quality it is necessary to ensure that maintenance budgets are held at a sufficient level to ensure a sufficient level of quality; • The poor quality of ancillary facilities (especially ageing changing rooms) has an impact on usage and sports development opportunities. Three key objectives and examples of issues to be considered throughout the use of the strategy are as follows: 1 • To sustain and improve existing playing pitch provision – through Council commitment to on-going careful management of bookings and pitch layout on a seasonal basis, as well as through a commitment to maintain satisfactory levels of grounds maintenance, to ensure that the pitches are able to sustain a high level of use. • To monitor usage levels to enable identification of changes in demand – through Council officers and the sports forums monitoring playing trends and increasing communication and liaison between clubs, in order to prevent some clubs struggling to find players, whilst others are struggling to manage demand. • To release underused facilities or develop new sites as required – the strategy recognises that some land in the borough is currently designated as playing field, but is no longer used as such, due to issues such as its size, poor quality or location within the borough. In such circumstances, this strategy suggests that formal realignment of this land should be considered. However, in order to ensure that an adequacy of good quality playing pitches is retained in the borough, and also to assist in providing for any additional, unidentified growth in demand in the future, the strategy also recognises the importance of seeking for new built developments to include (through Section 106 agreements or equivalent) the inclusion of new playing pitches or Multi Use Games Areas, as appropriate. Sport England has produced a document “Good Practice Guide providing for Sport & Recreation through new housing development” (2001) which provides guidance on how best to incorporate sport facilities within new development. The strategy also identifies the need for the Council to gain external funding for pitch improvements and new ancillary facilities as demand requires. In addition to the realignment of sites that are not fit for purpose and the development of new sites through planning agreements and grant funding, the strategy also identifies a need to encourage schools and private clubs to consider hiring out their playing pitches, in order to increase supply. The strategy concludes with a detailed implementation plan, that highlights key actions, responsible officers and estimated completion dates, as well as the potential resource implications of the actions – a subject that is given further consideration in the concluding section of the strategy. It should be noted that the detailed audit of Bexley’s Playing Pitches, that underpins this Strategy, is available from Cultural Services Officers upon request. In addition, information about all pitches and clubs in the Borough is available at Appendix A to the rear of this document (the information is correct as of summer 2005).

The Strategy is underpinned by a full audit of current supply and demand for pitches in Bexley and is underpinned by an Implementation Plan, which sets out the actions required to implement the Strategy over the next 4 – 5 years.

    www.bexley.gov.uk Bexley Growth Strategy December 2017 Bexley Growth Strategy December 2017 Leader’s Foreword Following two years of detailed technical work and consultation, I am delighted to present the Bexley Growth Strategy that sets out how we plan to ensure our borough thrives and grows in a sustainable way. For centuries, Bexley riverside has been a place of enterprise and endeavour, from iron working and ship fitting to silk printing, quarrying and heavy engineering. People have come to live and work in the borough for generations, taking advantage of its riverside locations, bustling town and village centres and pleasant neighbourhoods as well as good links to London and Kent, major airports, the Channel rail tunnel and ports. Today Bexley remains a popular place to put down roots and for businesses to start and grow. We have a wealth of quality housing and employment land where large and small businesses alike are investing for the future. We also have a variety of historic buildings, neighbourhoods and open spaces that provide an important link to our proud heritage and are a rich resource. We have great schools and two world-class performing arts colleges plus exciting plans for a new Place and Making Institute in Thamesmead that will transform the skills training for everyone involved in literally building our future. History tells us that change is inevitable and we are ready to respond and adapt to meet new opportunities. London is facing unprecedented growth and Bexley needs to play its part in helping the capital continue to thrive. But we can only do that if we plan carefully and ensure we attract the right kind of quality investment supported by the funding of key infrastructure by central government, the Mayor of London and other public bodies.

  • Bexley Bird Report 2016
    Bexley Bird Report 2016 Kingfisher –Crossness – Donna Zimmer Compiled by Ralph Todd June 2017 Bexley Bird Report 2016 Introduction This is, I believe, is the very first annual Bexley Bird Report, it replaces a half yearly report previously produced for the RSPB Bexley Group Newsletter/web-site and Bexley Wildlife web- site. I shall be interested in any feedback to try and measure how useful, informative or welcome it is. I suspect readers will be surprised to read that 153 different species turned up across the Borough during the 12 months of 2016. What is equally impressive is that the species reports are based on just over 13,000 individual records provided by nearly 80 different individuals. Whilst every endeavour has been made to authenticate the records they have not been subject to the rigorous analysis they would by the London Bird Club (LBC) as would normally be the case prior to publication in the annual London Bird Report (LBR). This report has also been produced in advance of the final data being available from LBC as this is not available until mid-summer the following year – it is inevitable therefore that some records might be missing. I am, however, confident no extra species would be added. The purpose of the report is four-fold:- To highlight the extraordinary range of species that reside, breed, pass through/over or make temporary stops in the Borough To hopefully stimulate a greater interest not only in the birds but also the places in which they are found. Bexley Borough has a wide range of open spaces covering a great variety of habitat types.
