The Wisbech Library sessions have been very busy, it is good to see so many bringing along their laptops and learning how to access the library resources which include two subscription sites all for FREE, with our researchers on hand to guide them when needed. It is always a de- light introducing beginners to this fascinating hobby, and seeing their surprise when up pop the names of family ancestors on the researchers laptop screen. Our Wisbech Library sessions are on the first Tuesday of each month from 10 – 12 noon. Every- one welcome. If you do not have a laptop do not worry one of our researchers will use theirs to help you. Our second monthly research session is at Wyevale Garden Centre in Crowland, on the second Tuesday of the month. We are joined there by Peterborough FHS and can be found in the restaurant from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. If you can bring along some of your paperwork, if you have any, we can then start you off or help your progress with you research. MAIN MEETINGS. Everyone found our October speaker Robert PARKER very interesting, his talk kept us all enthralled. We hope to invite him back again in the future. Our November meeting was more of a social event, it being the last meeting of the year. Food and drink accompanied the quiz. The competition brought much amusement as we tried to identify and match the baby photographs to present mem- bers attending the evening. Two members told of how they broke through the ‘Brick Wall’ of their family research. Others offered help and advice to those still facing their Brick Wall. We do not hold a main meeting in December. Our research ses- sions still go ahead as planned on the first and second Tuesday of December and again in January. We start 2016 with our meeting in St Peter’s Church Hall Wisbech from 7 p.m. – 9 p.m. with a talk by Susanah FARMER the theme of her talk will be ‘Going back to Basics. Everyone welcome. Our February talk will be on researching Military Sources. In March we have a talk and demonstration on displaying your family his- tory in many various ways, including Scapbooks. Our PROMOTION STAND with great displays to match the events will be in Wal- pole St Peter’s church on Saturday November 28th for their Advent Festival. Also with another special display in St Augustine Church Wisbech on Saturday 5th De- cember for their Christmas Tree Festival. Watch out for our very special Family History Tree in Peckover House Wisbech in their Christmas Tree event on the first and second weekend of December. You will also find us with a display and offering help with family research on Saturday 12th December at the Craft Fair in the RAFA club in Lynn Road Wisbech. Please do call in and meet us at any of these events.

At the end of September, I was invited by the Leader of the Borough Council, Councillor Nick Daub- ney to join the Borough Council's Cabinet taking re- sponsibility for Development. This role was previously performed by Mrs Vivienne Spikings who is a hard act to follow as she has been an exceptional holder of this portfolio. Vivienne will continue as chair of the Planning Committee. I explained in the last addition the role of the Cabinet and its part in the de- mocratic process. This has meant I have been very busy understanding my new role and the Development Portfolio. The areas I am responsible for vary from the Local Development Frame- work to Derelict Buildings to Street Naming. But a major part of the portfolio is concerned with the processing of planning applications and building controls and enforcement. I would now like to try to explain why the Walpoles like every other Ward in the Borough have received a considerable increase in planning applications in the last few weeks. In November 2012 at a planning appeal hearing, the Inspector concluded that the Borough had a five year supply of housing land (in fact said 7.5 year supply) but at a similar planning appeal in January 2015 another Inspector decided that the Borough only had 1.9 years supply of housing land.

  • Dear Customer Changes to Upwell Mobile Service Local Public
    Dear Customer Changes to Upwell Mobile service Local Public Consultation I’m really pleased to let you know that we are proposing to restore Post Office services to the communities of Walton Highway, Magdalen and Marham with the introduction of a Mobile service. The Post Office services in Magdalen and Marham have been closed for some time. Since the branches closed, we’ve continued to look at options to enable us to restore local access to Post Office services. I’m therefore pleased to inform you that the Postmaster from Upwell Post Office currently operates a Mobile service in the area and is willing to extend the service to the communities of Walton Highway, Magdalen and Marham. To accommodate the proposed new Mobile services there will be some changes to the current services at Wimbotsham, Wereham, Nordelph, Welney, Christchurch, Beachamwell, Marshland St James, Southery, St Johns Fen End and Fincham. We constantly monitor the number of customers using Post Office services and based on our findings we are confident that our proposed changes will meet customer demand. Our priority is always to safeguard Post Office services to rural communities so it is important that the service is viable for our Postmaster who operates it on our behalf. Full details of the new services and the changes to the existing services are provided at the end of this letter. Consulting on the proposed changes We’re now starting a 6 week local public consultation and we would like to hear your views on the following areas: How suitable do you think the proposed new Mobile service and stopping points are at Walton Highway, Magdalen and Marham? How easy is it to get there? Do you have any concerns about the proposal? Do you have any comments about the proposed days or opening hours of the services? Are there any local issues in the proposed Post Office change areas you would like us to consider? If you have any comments or questions, please email or write to me via our Communication and Consultation team, whose contact details are below.
