The site will be the subject of a planning application for the erection of additional caravan pitches and an associated access road. An Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey is required to provide an overview of the habitats present within the site and to assess any potential protected species issues on the site. Site Description 1.2 Pen-Y-Glol Caravan Park is located west of the village of Lloc, near to the town of Holywell, Flintshire (O.S. grid reference: SJ 12524 77769 – see Figure 1). The proposed development site currently comprises an area of plantation woodland, semi-natural broad-leaved woodland, hardstanding and continuous scrub. Aims of Survey 1.3 The aims of the survey were to: • Describe and map the habitats present on the site, • Assess the potential for protected species to be present on the site or just outside the immediate site boundary, • Identify where further survey may be necessary.

  • And Mineralization in the United Kingdom Faculty Of
    A THESIS entitled THE INTERPRETATION OF LEAD Ate ZINC STREAM SEDIMENT ANOMALIES RELATED TO CONTAMINATION AND MINERALIZATION IN THE UNITED KINGDOM Submitted for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in the FACULTY OF SCIENCE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LONDON by DENNIS TAYLOR Royal School of Mires Imperial College. May 1968 ABSTRACT Using the results of a multi-element stream sediment survey previously carried out over the environs of the Halkyn-Minera and Derbyshire Pb-Zn orefields as a base, a study was made of the relationship of anomalous metal contents to both natural and contaminated sources. Pb, Pb-Zn, and. Zn anomalies were found to be associated with contamination from mining and smelting and to various natural sources, with Mo, Ba, Cu and Ag as the principal associated elements. Smelting methods have changed with time and these variations are reflected in the metal associations found in the contaminated sediments, Pb or Pb-Ba anomalies with little or no Zn characterize smelters of early date and increasing amounts of Zn are found in more modern smelters, while very high Zn levels characterize anomalies derived from later metallurgical sites such as brass or galvanized iron industrial sites. The Pb:Zn ratio varies widely in natural anomalies, being influenced by the metal content of the primary mineralization, the history of leaching and erosion of the deposit and the mode of derivation of the stream sediment anomaly. The chemical form of the Pb and Zn in stream sediment anomalies differs systematically in a manner rslated to the nature of the source and the method of derivation of the anomaly.

    Flintshire Local Action Group Newsletter Summer 2019 Focus on LEADER The Flintshire Local Action Group (LAG) has approved LEADER support for over £750,000 in community-led projects in the rural area. Sue Haygarth, Chair of the LAG said, “we’ve approved a variety of projects since 2016, ranging from tourism, access to services, energy and business networks and it’s positive to see these project being delivered on the ground”. The projects have been approved by the Flintshire Local Action Group and are funded from the LEADER programme which is being managed by Cadwyn Clwyd. “There are still funds available to support new and innovative community projects across rural Flintshire, and I would urge community groups who have ideas and proposals to contact Cadwyn Clwyd for help to develop those ideas into actual projects” added Sue. The LAG still has just under £500,000 which can support community-led initiatives in rural Flintshire. “Projects supported to date include tourism initiatives such as using old telephone kiosks as tourist information points, developing digital apps across key tourism locations in the county and support towards the Clwydian Range and Dee valley Dark Skies initiatives. Other projects have provided support for business networks such as the North East Wales Food and Drink forum and the Mold business networks, whilst support has also been provided for community facilities such as development of the Trelogan Village hall and exploring community use of Capel Bethesda in Mold” said Sue. Did you Know? There is currently just under £500,000 available for projects in rural Flintshire, if you have an idea for a project which could benefit your community, please contact Cadwyn Clwyd on 01490 340500 or [email protected] Stay, Eat, Do… A brand new tourism project aimed at boosting the rural economy by encouraging visitors to one of Wales’s most beautiful regions to make more of their stays has been launched in North East Wales.

HOLYWELL CH8 9BD WWW.NCAR.ORG.UK NORTH CLWYD ANIMAL RESCUE WWW.NCAR.ORG.UK REG CHARITY:515195 01745 560546 WELCOME TO NCAR ABOUT NORTH CLWYD ANIMAL RESCUE Little did Anne Owen know, when she found Lady, a painfully thin lurcher on her doorstep back in 1978, that that would be the start of North Clwyd Animal Rescue. Since becoming a registered charity in 1981 the rescue has grown from strength to strength and now rescues over 1900 animals each year with numbers growing every year. Now in our 38th year the rescue has helped thousands of abandoned and stray animals to find their loving forever homes. All the stray dogs from both Flintshire and Denbighshire are brought to the sanctuary and are held for 7 days for the owner to come forward and claim them. If they do not get claimed, they are then put up for re-homing under our adoption scheme, after being neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped, and treated for worms and fleas. This rescue is a temporary home for dogs, cats, rabbits and guinea pigs, and we are always looking to develop our facilities, when funding allows. North Clwyd Animal Rescue is affiliated to the Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust and relies on the support and generosity of the general public. Funding comes purely from events, donations, legacies and our charity shops.

  • Ysgol Trelogan Schools' Pupil Deprivation Grant Statement The
    Ysgol Trelogan Schools’ Pupil Deprivation Grant Statement The purpose of the Pupil Deprivation Grant is to improve the educational attainment of pupils from low income families and who are entitled to free school meals (eFSM). Schools are expected to maximise the use of this funding by introducing sustainable strategies which will quickly lead to improved outcomes for pupils entitled to free school meals. As a school, we want to learn from the best practice in Wales and beyond by: 1. planning interventions that focus on improving the attainment of pupils from deprived backgrounds, regularly monitoring pupils’ progress and evaluating the impact of the intervention. 2. integrating plans for the effective use of the PDG into the School Development Plan, basing our practice on sound evidence and including them as part of a whole school strategy. 3. balancing whole school strategies with targeted interventions to ensure that all learners entitled to free school meals benefit as individuals, whilst the whole school also develops its ability to support every learner to achieve their full potential. In 2016-2017 Trelogan were allocated a total Pupil Deprivation Grant of £13,800 Ysgol Trelogan has a comprehensive plan, agreed and monitored by GwE and Flintshire Local Authority, to promote high expectations attainment and progress and to remove barriers to learning for pupils entitled to this funding. We have used the funding available to: • Purchase and integrate ‘Inspire Maths’ to improve the mathematical procedure skills of the FSM • Purchase Ipads and Desktop computers to develop Digital Competency • Employ C.A for supporting FSM children at both Key Stages • Funding for remission for FSM children to receive Music Tuition • Funding for remission for FSM children to attend Glanllyn and Pentrellyncymer It is not appropriate for the school to publish a detailed plan as it could identify individual pupils.
