Affordable housing includes social rented, affordable rented and intermediate housing (both for rent and sale), provided to eligible households whose needs are not met by the open market. Affordable housing should include provisions to remain at an affordable price for future eligible households or for the subsidy to be recycled for alternative affordable housing. The three types of affordable housing are defined below. Affordable homes in West Bridgford Social rented housing is rented housing owned by Registered Providers (RPs), for which guideline target rents are determined by the Government to ensure that they are lower than market rents and are affordable to those most in need. The majority of affordable housing in the Rushcliffe area is social rented housing, managed by Metropolitan (RP). Affordable Rent (a new product introduced by the Government in 2011) differs from social rent in that rents are higher (up to 80% of a market rent for the same property) and in most cases the property is let for a fixed term (normally for a minimum of 5 years). Properties are let by local authorities or private Registered Providers of Social Housing to households who are eligible for social rented housing. The increased rent payable on these properties will be used to reinvest new affordable housing. At the end of the tenancy, the landlord will decide whether the tenant should still benefit from the property or whether they should be required to seek alternative accommodation. Most new developments which require funding from the Homes & Communities Agency should be for Affordable Rent. Social rent has not been grant funded since April 2011 3 and ‘traditional’ intermediate housing is now only grant funded in exceptional circumstances. Intermediate housing helps social tenants, first time buyers, keyworkers and households earning less than £60,000 a year to buy a share of a property and get onto the property ladder. • The main form of intermediate housing is called shared ownership. You buy a share (between 25% and 75%) of the equity in your home from a housing association. You pay a mortgage on the part you own plus a controlled rent on the part you don’t own. You can buy additional shares until you own the property outright (except on some rural sites. • The other form is the Help to Buy Equity Loans scheme (formerly First Buy, formerly HomeBuy Direct) – you put down at least a 5% deposit; the government loans you up to 20% of the cost; you take out a mortgage for the remaining cost. The government loan is interest free for 5 years; after this time, a small annual fee is charged. This is counted as affordable housing because the loans are recycled by the HCA as they are repaid. How much Affordable Housing does Rushcliffe require? The Borough Council is committed to increasing the levels of affordable housing in Rushcliffe and we currently seek an affordable housing requirement of 30% on developments of 15 or more dwellings or 0.5 hectares or more. This requirement is set out in the Borough Council’s Local Plan, which is currently in the process of being updated. As part of the work that has been carried out to support the development of this new Local Plan, two important specific affordable housing studies have been commissioned to help us decide future thresholds. The Strategic Housing Market Assessment (2009 and updated in 2012) looks specifically at housing need in the Borough. The Affordable Housing Viability Assessment (2009) looks more specifically at the viability of affordable housing targets in different parts of the Borough. Affordable apartments under construction in West Bridgford 4 How to use this directory The information in this directory is meant to act as a guide to the types of affordable housing that is available in different areas of Rushcliffe. However, users need to be aware that most of the properties will already be let and it is impossible to predict when a property may become available in the future. If you are looking for social housing in a particular area, the first thing you need to think about is the type of property that is appropriate for you and your family. Although the policies of different RPs vary, they will all try to match properties to the needs of the applicants. This means that single people will be unlikely to be allocated two bedroom properties and the largest properties will usually be allocated to the largest families. As a general guide: Single People should look at one and two bedroom apartments and bedsits. Couples without children should look at one or two bedroom apartments and maisonettes. Families with children should consider the size and age of their families. Those with only one child may be allocated two bedroom apartments, maisonettes or houses, while those with larger families may be considered for three or four bedroom houses. Older people can consider one or two bedroom bungalows or apartments that have been designated for older people. These are not only for people of pensionable age, and are often made available to people in their fifties, although allocation policies differ between RPs. People with physical disabilities should look at appropriately sized bungalows or adapted apartments. Single people and couples may also be considered for bedsits and bungalows or apartments that have been designated for older people People in need of specialist support will find a small amount of relevant supported housing listed. People in need of emergency accommodation will find a small amount of temporary accommodation listed. If you are homeless, or need emergency rehousing, you should contact the Council’s Housing Options Team for advice. Please note – these guidelines are not rigid and you should examine the allocations policies of each RP to find out exactly what kinds of properties they may be offered. Once you have some idea of the type and size of properties that would be suitable for you, use the property lists in this directory to find out the number of properties of that type which are available in the areas you are seeking housing. This will give you some idea of the likelihood of a suitable property becoming available. 5 You should also look at the turnover of the properties. For the purpose of this directory: High turnover is where a vacancy arises on average every six months or under, Medium turnover is when a vacancy arises on average every six months to two years, Low turnover is when a vacancy arises on average less often than every two years. This should also give you some idea of how often vacancies might arise. Choice Based Lettings (Homesearch) In order to be considered for a home, you will need to have registered with Choice Based Lettings (CBL). CBL, also known as Homesearch, is a new way of letting social housing in Broxtowe, Gedling and Rushcliffe. When a home becomes available, instead of your local council offering the home through a waiting list, you will be able to place a bid for any suitable home you are interested in. This is not a financial bid but an expression of interest in that home. Homes will be advertised every week on the internet, and in public places such as council offices and libraries. Before you place a bid on a home you will need to have registered with Homesearch. You can register online at www.home-search.org.uk Further information on the CBL process, including guidance on the housing allocations policy, can be found on the Homesearch website at http://www.home-search.org.uk If you are in urgent need of housing or need advice on the options available to you, the Housing Options Team at Rushcliffe Borough Council may be able to help you. To arrange an appointment with them, please call 0115 914 8326 or email [email protected] . Remember both Rushcliffe Borough Council and the RPs are concerned with providing housing for people in need. 6 General Needs housing Bedsit apartments, one bedroom apartments and one bedroom maisonettes West Bridgford Location Number & type of property Landlord Turnover Abbey 54 one bedroom apartments Metropolitan Medium Edwalton 83 one bedroom apartments Metropolitan High Lady Bay 42 one bedroom apartments Metropolitan Medium Nottingham Lady Bay 1 one bedroom apartment Community No data Housing As.

  • Bailey's Croft
    95 and 97 Main Street, Willoughby, photographed in 1985. ‘Bailey’sCroft’, Willoughbyon the Wolds DavidBailey From the early part of the eighteenth century the Bailey families who gave their name to the ‘Bailey Croft’ development at Willoughbylived in these cottages and the farm at the rear. The families originated in Nottingham before moving to the parishes of Wymeswoldand Nether Broughtonin Leicestershire, close to the border with Nottinghamshire. They finally settled at Willoughbyon the Woldsin the southernmosttip of Nottinghamshire. There they lived and worked, within the village community, for two centuries. A greater part of that time was spent living in the cottages pictured above. This building witnessed their growth into an established village family who, over five generations, were involved in shoemaking, joinery, shop-keeping and farming. They were joined in marriage by other families from Willoughbyand nearby parishes. The family had also become monconformistin the early ninetenthcentury and followed the Wesleyan Methodist tradition. Their lives were far from being uneventful, experiencing their share of tragedy. The advent of the twentieth century heralded the 1 Road map with distances (in miles) to surrounding settlements. decline of village life. Two World Wars, improved transport links, mass production and new farming methods changed village life forever. No longer was there a requirement for craftsmen or tradesmen within the community. Family members sought employment away from the village, where they married and raised a family. Consequently, with the passing of time, many of the families in the village ceased to exist. The Bailey family was no exception. In 1987 the last family member living at Willoughbyon the Wolds died.

  • Weekly COVID-19 Surveillance Report in Nottinghamshire Cumulative Data from 21/02/2020 - 26/07/2020
    28/07/2020 (new wording) Intro Weekly COVID-19 Surveillance Report in Nottinghamshire Cumulative data from 21/02/2020 - 26/07/2020 Overview This report summarises the information from the surveillance system which is used to monitor the cases of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in Nottinghamshire (excluding Nottingham city). The report is based on daily data up to 26 July 2020. COVID-19 cases are identified by taking specimens from people and sending these specimens to laboratories to be tested. If the test is positive, this is referred to as a lab-confirmed case. Data includes lab-confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 from pillar 1 (NHS hospital and Public Health England laboratories) and pillar 2 (commercial partner laboratories) of the Government's testing programme. There are many factors that can contribute to the number of cases in an area. As part of local outbreak control arrangements, a team meets daily to review information about new cases to identify where further investigation or action is required. Technical details The maps presented in the report examine counts and rates of COVID-19 at Middle Super Output Area level. Middle Layer Super Output Areas are a census based geography used in the reporting of small area statistics in England and Wales. The minimum population is 5,411 and the average is 8,363. As such they are larger than electoral wards but smaller than Districts. Disclosure control rules have been applied to all figures not currently in the public domain. All counts of 1 or 2 have been suppressed.

  • Volume 4: Spring Walks
    1 Introduction Welcome to our fourth volume of ‘100 Walks from the Poppy and Pint’. This volume contains Spring Walks for you to enjoy now that the lockdown has eased. I hope that you find it useful. You will find 49 walks in this volume bringing the total number of walks in the series to 150! This volume is quite different to the other volumes. These walks have been specially selected from a wider radius of Lady Bay. This gives us more choice, more variety, and the chance to showcase different areas. Most of the walks start within 30 minutes’ drive from the Poppy and Pint and most are relatively short walks of around two to three hours. All have been chosen because they hold one or more points of interest. Moreover, the paths are quiet, they are varied, and all are on good, waymarked paths. This makes them ideal spring walks just after the lockdown. Being out on the trail in the open air anywhere lifts the spirits, is good for the soul, and gives our lives a different perspective. I think we always feel better when we come back from a walk! Do try it and see! This is the fourth volume of walks to complement Volumes One, Two and Three. Unfortunately, it is not possible to put these four volumes into one tome as the subsequent size of the file would be too big to e mail! When I set myself the challenge of researching and creating 100 local walks, I never actually thought it was possible.

Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire Wolds Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. NCA profiles are working documents which draw on current evidence and knowledge. We will aim to refresh and update them periodically as new 1 The Natural Choice: Securing the Value of Nature, Defra information becomes available to us.
