ANNUAL PENSION RISE As we all know, the annual pension rise is linked to the inflation figures in September of each year and if the inflation figure for that month is a certain percentage, then that is the percentage rise we get in the following April. Last year’s September inflation rate was 0.5%. The good news is that the NARPO Subscription is also linked to that figure so there will be no great jump in subscriptions this year, just a little adjustment to: £21.60, which means a 12p rise in the subscription rate for this year. This will have be taken from your or February pay in the usual manner. 6. BRANCH PRESIDENT Not to be outdone by recent events across the pond, I can announce that we in the Glamorgan Branch of NARPO also have a new president. Unlike the former US President our former Branch President Mat JUKES moved on to pastures new willingly and without disputing anything, we wish him well in his new post in the Mets. It has long been a tradition of this Branch to invite the current Chief Constable to be our President, so the present incumbent of that role, Mr. Jeremy VAUGHAN was invited to take-up the position and has agreed to do so in an honorary capacity. 7. BRANCH UPDATE The current pandemic has certainly changed things for everyone, not just in this country, but throughout the world and as imperfect and inconvenient as things are at the moment we as police pensioners are in a very privileged position. Whilst other sections of the community have worries with regard to their future work prospects we have a regular source of income in the form of a police pension to maintain our lifestyles. Although it has not been possible to deliver to our members some of the usual benefits that membership of the Branch generate, we have been able in most cases to assist those members who need support at crucial times in their lives, when such matters are brought to our attention. Page 3 It has been noted that at a time when funeral attendances are being restricted to only a small number of family members that it is often the case that we are not being informed of the demise of some of our members, so I would urge anyone with such knowledge to let me/us know in the Branch to enable us the opportunity to offer support to family members at such a crucial time. Unfortunately, with the majority of people working from home at this time and at various times in the last 10 months it has been difficult to obtain information to pass on to members. Logistics have also been stretched, as an example, the last Newsletter was sent to the distributors and a process which has taken as little as 4 days in normal times took just shy of 3 weeks. Things do seem to be slowly improving and we are mostly adjusting to the situation, perhaps 30 odd years in the police prepared us in some small way for this situation and how to get through it. Unfortunately not everyone of us has, or possibly will come out the other end of this smiling, perhaps indicated by the list of members preceding this, whose numbers certainly exceed those usually printed at this time of the year. Our thoughts are with the families of those so affected. 8. MOVED HOUSE LATELY? When I say lately, the question is did you inform Capita (our current pension provider) with your new address when you did move home? We have had a couple of instances lately where enquiries have come from Police HQ asking if we are aware of the current address of pensioners, who have moved and as they (HQ) assume that the pension information with Capita is correct have tried to contact them without success. They do say that one of the most stressful things in life – especially as we get older – is moving house. One of the things that people who do move forget is that they must inform the pension administrator (currently Capita) of that change of address, it is easily missed especially as the pension keeps landing in the bank account on the first of each month, and it may not even be a consideration, until things do go wrong. With the change-over of pension administrators on the horizon it is important that they have the correct details for all pensioners to ensure that the correct details are passed on to the new administrators. Somebody, either Capita or the new guys are going to have to send out a letter explaining any new arrangements. That is without mentioning the annual receipt of your P60 and any other communication from the tax office. If in doubt please phone or send an E-mail to Capita quoting your Pension Number and giving your new and old address, a telephone number would also be advisable. If you are receiving a pay-slip delivered by the post person (notice the gender neutral use of the term – I’m getting there), and it is not being forwarded from your old address, then I think you can assume that they will have your correct details.

  • Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Bridgend County Borough will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea authorities and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will

The audit of Children’s Playing Space reveals that there is an approximate total of 69.14 hectares of land available for recreational activities. This represents on a County Borough wide basis (and based on the minimum FIT standard of 0.8 hectares per 1000 population), an overall deficiency in Children’s Playing Space of approximately 38.22 hectares. The sub-area/settlement analysis enclosed in this document is however based on the 2001 census population, due to the detail available at the local level. In geographical terms, the areas of greatest deficiency in Children’s Playing Space are the large urban centres of Bridgend, Maesteg, and Pencoed. Porthcawl and much of the Ogmore, Garw and Llynfi Valleys also illustrate a significant deficiency in provision. The only areas with a surplus of Children’s Playing Space provision are the group settlement area of Tondu/Coytrahen in the Valleys Gateway Sub-area and all of the Pyle/Kenfig/Cornelly Sub-Area, are the only areas with a surplus of. In neither area, however, is there a particular excess of provision.

  • Media Release I'r Cyfryngau
    Media Release I’r Cyfryngau 28 May 2020 Covid-19 update from Bridgend County Borough As the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic continues, Bridgend County Borough Council is continuing to focus its resources on providing essential services and protecting vulnerable residents. The following information provides a summary of latest developments. £650,000 funding bid for active travel routes The council has submitted a £650,000 funding bid to Welsh Government for temporary and permanent active travel routes as part of transportation measures to improve the safety and conditions of walking and cycling paths both during and following the Covid-19 crisis. If successful, it would enable firstly, the completion of the Porthcawl coastal path along the front of Trecco Bay allowing walkers and cyclists to go from Newton all the way to Rest Bay. It would also enable part of the road space between Coychurch Roundabout and Bridgend town centre to become a temporary active travel route. The 2.5km section would include Kingsway Avenue on the Bridgend Industrial Estate, York Road to Cowbridge Road. Finally, the funding would help create more than 150 pedestrian and cycle crossing points in communities across the county borough. The tactile crossings enable a more defined space for pedestrians and cyclists to cross roads.
