Vicar’s Verbals The bird feeder outside my study has attracted an unexpected visitor. The sparrows, and the occasional long tailed tit, have deserted the feeders outside my window, preferring the more secluded ones away from the house, but when I looked up this morning I saw a little grey bottom poking out of the feeder, sporting, instead of feathers, a skinny little tail. I watched in fascination as the cheeky thief scurried up and down the branches of the bush with his swag, balancing precariously on the twigs and trying not to be swept off in the freshening breeze. My initial reaction was irritation – An undated photograph of a Women’s Institute meeting at Parson Drove.

Everyone, especially children, very welcome. Nurse Lisa, a much respected member of St Mary’s congregation Lisa Owen, a much respected member of the congregation at Wisbech St Mary & Guyhirn church, has died at the age of 42. She was the daughter of Councillor Kit Owen, of March, and the mother of nine-year-old Oliver. Paying tribute to his daughter Councillor Owen said the former naval nurse had touched many people’s lives during her nursing career, which also included time on cruise ships after she left the navy. “There are hundreds of messages on her Facebook account from people she had helped, including many whose lives she saved. I never realised until now just what an important role she had played in helping people,” said Councillor Owen, whose wife Beverly died two- and-a-half-years ago. Lisa became a Petty Officer with the Queen Alexandra Royal Naval Nursing Service and served in the navy for 18 years, before being medically discharged due to back problems in 2006. Lisa took her skills back to sea by joining cruise ships as a nursing officer and she regularly sailed to Alaska and the Caribbean. Lisa was described as an extremely skilled nurse and regularly ran paramedic training, first aid training, nursing training and also carried out some private nursing looking after people at home.” Lisa’s main passion in life was photography and she had built up a huge portfolio of wildlife images captured on her trips to Alaska and elsewhere. Tributes to Lisa have included one from the Rev Matthew Bradbury, vicar of Wisbech St Mary. He said: “Lisa suffered with chronic ill health because of a serious back injury sustained during her military service as a nurse in the Royal Navy. Every day she faced pain and restricted mobility with fortitude and good humour. She was a fine of the congregation at St Mary’s Church. She example to us all of courage and resilience and adversity.” was working on a calendar for Wisbech St The Rev Bradbury said Lisa was a “valued and much loved” member Mary parish church at the time of her death.

  • Current Dwelling Profile and Condition (Uses 2009/10 Data)
    Cambridge sub-region SHMA 2012 Chapter 4 Current dwelling profile and condition (uses 2009/10 data) Current dwelling profile and condition: a summary Interest and relevance . This chapter provides a profile of the existing housing stock in the Cambridge sub-region in terms of type, tenure and new homes delivered in the recent past. Stock condition surveys highlighting any issues with problem stock are included in 4.7 Additional information. Some of the data included in this chapter is used in Chapter 13, Identifying affordable housing need and is highlighted in yellow. Headline messages . Monitoring across the sub-region continues to demonstrate success delivering new homes. Although completions were lower in 2008/9 and 2009/10 than in 2007/8, homes continue to be delivered in all our districts: a total of 3,445 homes in 2008/9 and 2,982 in 2009/10. Between 2001/2 and 2009/10 some 34,360 homes were completed across our housing sub-region. This represents 20% of the homes delivered across the East of England and 3% of homes across England (Table 5). Nearly three quarters of households were owner-occupiers at the 2001 Census (Table 7). An estimated 7,270 households are overcrowded in the sub-region as a whole (Table 9). In 2010, less than 1% of stock had been empty for more than six months (Table 11). Local condition surveys suggest a larger proportion of recently built properties. Because of changes in building standards over time, there are generally lower levels of non-decent stock in the rural districts of the sub-region than in the country as a whole.
