Paul Goodridge Roy Gould There are currently several vacancies for councillors - contact the Clerk for information. Unitary Councillor Mr Mike Hewitt Tel: 01980 610301 [email protected] Idmiston Parish Newsletter Page 2 Idmiston Parish Council Would you like to join our team? The Parish Council is made up of fi fteen Council members – we currently have several vacancies and would like to recruit suitable people to fi ll the gaps. If you want to have a say in what happens in the Parish of Idmiston by joining the Parish Council, then here is your chance. Most people’s impression of what a Councillor does is that they just attend council meetings but, for a ded- icated Councillor, nothing could be further from the truth. The duties and pleasures of being a Councillor are many and varied, however it is the ordinary day to day contact with local people in their own communi- ty that is the most important part of being a Councillor. Parish Councils must have a minimum number of Councillors to remain legally enabled to make decisions on your behalf and to allocate locally the funds raised by the Parish Precept, which is paid as part of the compulsory Council Tax. If there is no Parish Council then these funds will be spent by the remote, and less locally engaged, Wiltshire Council. The Parish Council would like to ask if you would consider taking on this valuable and rewarding role in the community. If you are interested, please contact the Parish Clerk, Jim Slater on 01980 590611 or email [email protected] for further information or an informal chat. Alternatively come along to the next Parish Council meeting. New Parish Website Thanks largely to the work of Parish Coun- cil Chairman James Humphries, the Parish now has a new website that is packed with information about all manner of events in the Parish, and which we hope will act as the central point for news and information about what is happening in Idmiston, Por- ton and Gomeldon. Parish Council documents including Meet- ing Agendas and Minutes are freely avail- able to access and download, and we are intending to update the site frequently as new information becomes available. The site has been cleverly designed so that you don’t need to be sitting in front of a com- puter to read all about things - it also works well on your smartphone when you are out and about. Go to: www.idmistonpc.org for all the information about Idmiston Parish. Contributions to the website from Parish Organisations are welcome - send them to [email protected] Idmiston Parish Newsletter Page 3 Idmiston Parish Council Village Produce & Craft Show Saturday 5th September 2015 Memorial Hall, Porton 2 - 4pm Open to Residents of Idmiston Parish, Parish Youth Groups and children on roll at Parish Schools.

  • Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the Differences Between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas
    Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the differences between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas This document should be read in conjunction with the School Places Strategy 2017 – 2022 and provides an explanation of the differences between the Wiltshire Community Areas served by the Area Boards and the School Planning Areas. The Strategy is primarily a school place planning tool which, by necessity, is written from the perspective of the School Planning Areas. A School Planning Area (SPA) is defined as the area(s) served by a Secondary School and therefore includes all primary schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into that secondary school. As these areas can differ from the community areas, this addendum is a reference tool to aid interested parties from the Community Area/Area Board to define which SPA includes the schools covered by their Community Area. It is therefore written from the Community Area standpoint. Amesbury The Amesbury Community Area and Area Board covers Amesbury town and surrounding parishes of Tilshead, Orcheston, Shrewton, Figheldean, Netheravon, Enford, Durrington (including Larkhill), Milston, Bulford, Cholderton, Wilsford & Lake, The Woodfords and Great Durnford. It encompasses the secondary schools The Stonehenge School in Amesbury and Avon Valley College in Durrington and includes primary schools which feed into secondary provision in the Community Areas of Durrington, Lavington and Salisbury. However, the School Planning Area (SPA) is based on the area(s) served by the Secondary Schools and covers schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into either The Stonehenge School in Amesbury or Avon Valley College in Durrington.

  • Army Basing Salisbury Plan Planning Applications New SFA Exhibition Banners
    Army Basing - Salisbury Plain Planning Applications 1 Introduction Government announcements The Army Basing Plan announced on 5th March 2013 confirmed Salisbury Plain as a major focus of the Reaction Force element of Army 2020. For further details on the wider programme visit: www.gov.uk/government/consultations/salisbury-plain- training-area-master-plan-army-basing-programme. The Government has committed up to £800 million to be invested in the Salisbury Plain area. The planned changes In total there will be approximately 7,700 people moving to the Salisbury Plain area comprising 4,300 additional service personnel plus their families. To provide the necessary infrastructure the key elements of the Masterplan for the Army Basing Programme are: • Extensive new construction and refurbishment of existing buildings within the existing base perimeter for: • Single living accommodation (SLA), with dining, catering, recreational and welfare facilities; and • Technical accommodation, including workshops, garages, armouries, stores and offices. • Outside the existing base perimeter there will be changes to the training area; and • 1,017 new houses for Service Family Accommodation (SFA); 444 in Larkhill; 246 in Ludgershall; 227 in Bulford; and 100 purchased in Tidworth. The Salisbury Plain Masterplan In 2014 a Salisbury Plain Masterplan was prepared to illustrate the necessary changes to existing infrastructure to serve the needs of this larger community of Army personnel and service families. The Masterplan, together with the supporting Environmental Report, sets the planning framework for the development of each site identified. Planning applications Over the past few months, proposals for a number of sites identified in the Masterplan - Bulford, Ludgershall and Larkhill - have been developed.

  • Newton Tony CE VC Primary School
    Newton Tony CE VC Primary School Admissions Arrangements 2018-2019 Policy agreed November 2017 Policy review September 2018 This policy applies solely to applications for places at Voluntary Controlled (VC) and Community (C) Primary, Infant and Junior Schools. Foundation (F), Voluntary Aided schools (VA) and Academies (A) are their own admissions authorities and the governing bodies are responsible for determining their own procedures and policies. Determined arrangements for the co-ordination of primary admissions are drafted with the determined co-ordinated admissions scheme 2018/19. The application round for entry into Reception 2018 and Junior Year 3 entry opens on 1 September 2017. The deadline date for applications to be received is midnight on 15 January 2018. The home address given for the child must be the address where the child is resident as of the deadline date. Designated Area A designated area is a discrete geographical zone served by a school. The address that determines a child’s designated area is the place where s/he is ordinarily resident with his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) for the majority of the school week. Most schools have a discrete designated area but some addresses fall within areas shared by two or more schools. Children living outside the county boundary are treated as if the children live within Wiltshire but outside the designated area for the school(s) in question. For admission criterion purposes, the address used for Bargees, will be the sorting office or main post office address, closest to the place of mooring as of the deadline date.

  • Army Basing Newsletter – February 2018
    Army Basing Newsletter – February 2018 This publication aims to regularly update you on the Army Basing Programme (ABP) announced in 2013 stating some 4,000 additional Service personnel plus their families would relocate to Salisbury Plain by 2020. Wiltshire Council Visit to Perham Down: The MOD Army Basing Team invited Baroness Scott of Bybrook, OBE, Leader of Wiltshire Council, local Wiltshire councillors, the Corporate Director for Growth, Investment and Place (Alistair Cunningham) together with the local Community Engagement Manager (Marc Read) to see recent development at Perham Down on 18 January. In addition, General Wardlaw (Director of Basing and Infrastructure), Mark Duddy (ABP Programme Director) and Allan Thomson (Aspire’s Chief Executive) provided a briefing on the scale and development of the £1billion programme, which is on track to deliver facilities inside and outside ‘the wire’ within the required 2020 timescale. The party also drove through the recently completed Ashdown Housing Estate in Tidworth. Construction Programme: Construction work continues at pace on garrisons (Tidworth, Larkhill, Bulford and Perham Down). As reported previously, many new buildings, extensions and refurbishments are underway or have been completed. Additionally, the school build programme required for the increased military population is well established with St Michael’s Primary School at Larkhill now very prominent on the landscape. Planning permission to extend the Avon Valley College at Durrington was granted, on 11 October 2017. Planning applications for the new school at Ludgershall and extending Wellington Academy were submitted on 1st December 2017 and 8th January 2018 respectively. The tenders for these two schools are due to be returned in mid-April 18, so that all places will be available in August 2019, in good time for the arrival of the Army units arriving in the summer of 2019.

  • Covid-19 Community Groups Directory
    COVID-19 COMMUNITY GROUPS DIRECTORY updated 13 August 2020 1 DM20_295 ONLINE INTRODUCTION The communities of Wiltshire have risen to the challenge of COVID-19 to make sure people are supported through this very difficult time. The council has collated all the community groups we have identified so far so that those who need support for themselves or a loved one can make direct contact. In the time available we have only been able to collate this directory and therefore this is not an endorsement of the groups listed but it is for you to decide what use you will make of the offers of support at this time. If anyone uses a community group and has concerns about the response/practice please inform us by emailing [email protected] giving the clear reasons for your concern. The council wants to ensure that everybody can access the support they need. If you make contact with a group and they cannot help or you do not get a response within the required timeframe, then please do not hesitate to contact the council by emailing [email protected] and we will ensure you get the support you need. FOOD BANKS At this difficult time, food banks are in need of more volunteers and donations. If you are able to help in any way please get in touch with your local food bank. Food banks are there to support vulnerable people in a crisis, which is usually subject to a referral from a trusted source such as a social worker.
