Introduction In June 2016, Cabinet approved the acquisition of the Bell House site from its then owner, Home Group, for not more than £150,000. The site was derelict and had been problematic for several years. The resulting sale, to the council, was completed in June 2017. In April 2018, Cabinet approved the redevelopment of the whole Bell House site and its transfer from the General Fund to the HRA. The development was envisaged to be 9 No 1 bed 2-person apartments and 9 No 2 bed 3-person apartments with associated parking and communal garden. The estimated development cost was £1,570,000. Following the approval an architect was commissioned to develop the outline design into a deliverable RIBA (Stage 2) Concept Design. The detail of the design changed during the planning pre-consultation stage and will now deliver 13 No 1 bed 2 person apartments and 5 No 2 bed 3 person apartments. These changes arose in part from the changing housing need and as a result of the planning consultation process (location, size and scale of the building and the orientation of the apartments within).

  • The Draycote Benefice Parish Profile
    THE DRAYCOTE BENEFICE The Parishes of Birdingbury, Bourton and Draycote, Frankton And Stretton on Dunsmore with Princethorpe PARISH PROFILE Page 1 of 20 BISHOP’S INTRODUCTION The Draycote benefice is a good example of how a rural, multi-parish benefice can thrive during an interregnum! They have built on good foundations and developed some excellent lay-led initiatives across the benefice which are already bearing good fruit. They are looking for a leadership style which seeks to train and empower them further. They have a heart for the gospel in a rural context and want to be missional, which is hugely encouraging. Indeed, they are not just planning to reach out to their communities in the future, they have already begun a number of missional activities and events. I have been impressed by the lay leadership I have seen in the Draycote group. The wardens and different parish churches work well together. They have tried hard to make this role do-able, and I believe it will be enjoyable and stimulating working with them. They are genuinely open to trying new things. The only significant contention I have picked up is about the location of the vicarage, which has now been approved by all the PCCs. Undoubtedly, finding a suitable vicarage within the benefice has been difficult. A suitable property has been found in a nearby village, but the time taken to purchase and refurbish this has resulted in a longer vacancy than they had originally anticipated, so there is now a feeling of becoming tired without dedicated spiritual leadership.

    PLACE BASED NEEDS ASSESSMENT RUGBY RURAL NORTH Warwickshire Joint Strategic Needs Assessment March 2020 REPORT DETAILS Lead Duncan Vernon, Associate Director of Public Health Sponsor(s) Cllr Sally Bragg Insight Analyst/ main author Thomas Kane, Business Intelligence, WCC Acknowledgements Thank you to everyone who contributed to the content of this report, including participants of the Steering Group, the stakeholders who attended various community engagement events and those at WCC and externally who have provided data. Date published August 2020 Please note that the research for this report took place prior to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Although the report refers to long standing health and wellbeing issues which have and will continue to impact upon residents, we would encourage you to read them alongside the COVID-19 Health Impact Assessment which is available on the Warwickshire JSNA webpage (from July 2020). This assessment identifies key health and wellbeing indicators that have been affected by the Coronavirus outbreak. The pandemic has, and will continue to have, direct and indirect impacts on individuals and communities across Warwickshire. Some who suffered from COVID- 19 illness are facing a period of recovery of unknown trajectory. Many of those who lost loved ones during the pandemic are having to grieve without having been able to say goodbye, or to be close to others while they grieve. Additionally, economic and mental health impacts are already being felt as a result of the pandemic response, with these impacts disproportionately affecting people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Groups and those with lower incomes, who have often been at the frontline of the response in essential worker roles.
