Mission to New Housing Areas With
Mission to New Housing Areas in the Diocese of Rochester Background The government has identified the Thames Gateway as an area with potential for significant new housing developments on “brownfield sites” where factories, dockyards and chalk pits have closed down. In addition, all local authorities have been set ambitious targets for new housing over the next 15 years. The result is that there will be a major challenge for the church if we are to be able to respond and meet the spiritual needs of these new neighbourhoods. Church Commissioners Mission Funds Funding has been made available by the Church Commissioners to support parishes in the Diocese as they seek to reach out in mission to the people moving into new housing developments. Targets have been agreed, and a mapping exercise has been carried out to assess where new housing has recently been completed, where new housing is being built over the next 2-3 years and where major projects are likely in the coming decade. The findings are listed on the subsequent pages of this document. The Role of the Mission Growth Team Leader It has been agreed with the Church Commissioners that the Mission Growth Team Leader will work closely with 3 parishes in each Archdeaconry in 2010 and a further 2 parishes in each Archdeaconry from 2011 to formulate a Mission Action Plan. Where appropriate training will be offered. Further information about the national church response to new housing areas can be found at http://www.cinha.net Mission-minded Disciples In many of the areas where significant new housing is planned the churches are struggling financially and aging congregations are finding most of their time and energy used up in trying to ensure that the church survives. -
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. -
Old Bexley and Sidcup Conservative Association
Rob Leitch Chairman Old Bexley and Sidcup Conservative Association Mr David Owen Review Officer (Bexley) The Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor Millbank Tower London SW1P 4QP [email protected] th 4 April 2016 Dear Mr Owen, Re: Response to the Draft Recommendations for the London Borough of Bexley Following the Local Government Boundary Commission's publication of draft boundaries for local elections in the London Borough of Bexley, I am writing in broad support of the recommendations that have been put forward. In general, the proposed boundaries improve the electoral equality of our local wards and respect the important community links that exist across so much of the Borough at present. However, I would like to draw attention to two concerns that I have which both fall within the geographical area of Old Bexley and Sidcup Conservative Association. These are: 1. That the Local Government Boundary Commission should ensure that all shops and flats on Blackfen Road and Westwood Lane are moved into Blackfen & Lamorbey Ward from the currently proposed Blendon & Penhill Ward. Explanation: Ensuring that the whole shopping area was united within one ward was put forward by the council in its submission, and the Labour Group of councillors’ proposal also proposed that the whole of the Blackfen shopping area would fall within the same ward. Changing the proposals to ensure that the shopping area becomes united would affect only a very small number of electors (approximately 50), but corrects an anomaly of the present boundaries that has caused confusion amongst a number of residents over the past few years. -
Bexley RSPB Group – Walk Lamorbey Park Thursday 7 February 2019
Bexley RSPB Group – Walk Lamorbey Park Thursday 7th February 2019 Previous visits to Lamorbey Park have been in April (2016) and October (2017) so it would be interesting to see what winter would produce. A magnificent turnout of 19 with about a third making a first visit to this local gem were prepared for any weather – very strong overnight winds had abated a little and sunshine, blue sky and threatening rain clouds prevailed during the morning visit but fortunately no actual rain. Assembling in the Sidcup Leisure Centre car park gave us an opportunity to scan Marlow House for the peregrine falcon – great telescope views of the box before Gary located a sitting bird on an office window sill two floors lower down. What a great start. Moving into the park and trying to hear bird-song over the animated shouts and squeals of the local school children was a little challenging but fortunately is wasn’t long before the shout of nuthatch went up (from one of our observant members – not the school children). Eventually two birds (a pair?) gave good views in and around two large conifers. Of course, standing still following these birds one, possibly two, goldcrests, blue and coal tits were also seen. In the knowledge that a firecrest had been seen we spent some time in the favoured location but to no avail only more blue tits, robin and great tit. Continuing the walk between Chis & Sid School and the lake, magpies, crows, woodpigeons, parakeets and robins, blue and great tits were noted and on the “choppy” water of the lake, plenty of mallard, moorhen, coot and Canada geese were attracted to some bread being thrown. -
