There were various ways to spend the day and just to wander around Stratford with its history and old buildings proved very interesting. There were numerous small independent shops for the "shopaholics" to visit and a choice of cafes and restaurants for those wanting refreshments. Lunch could also be had at the Garrick Inn, a traditional black and white pub and, dating back to the 15th century, said to be the oldest in Stratford. There was also the opportunity to ride on the Tour Bus which visited Mary Arden's Farm - Mary being the mother of Shakespeare - Shakespeare's birthplace and Ann Hathaway's Cottage. Some members took a one hour boat trip down the River Avon. Later in June, Charlotte from Wiltshire Farm Foods brought to our meeting an appe- tising selection of meals for members to taste so that they could choose their favour- ites and place an order if they so wished. Several members took advantage of this. Deliveries are made to the Quedgeley area every Thursday morning between 8.00 a.m. and 10.00 a.m. Meals include vegetarian, gluten-free and those for special diets. Wiltshire Farm \foods work very closely with the NHS. Dishes can be chosen from a large selection of main meals and desserts - too numerous to mention indi- vidually as there are over 300. Everyone was able to take advantage of the tasters and it was agreed that they were delicious. For more information W.F.F. can be contacted by telephone on 01793 751 176 or online at www.wiltshirefarmfoods.com. The Club meets on the first and third Tuesday of each month (except August) at Quedgeley Village Hall.

  • Stroud Labour Party
    Gloucestershire County Council single member ward review Response from Stroud Constituency Labour Party Introduction On 30 November the Local Government Boundary Commission started its second period of consultation for a pattern of divisions for Gloucestershire. Between 30 November and 21 February the Commission is inviting comments on the division boundaries for GCC. Following the completion of its initial consultation, the Commission has proposed that the number of county councillors should be reduced from 63 to 53. The districts have provided the estimated numbers for the electorate in their areas in 2016; the total number for the county is 490,674 so that the average electorate per councillor would be 9258 (cf. 7431 in 2010). The main purpose of this note is to draw attention to the constraints imposed on proposals for a new pattern of divisions in Stroud district, which could lead to anomalies, particularly in ‘bolting together’ dissimilar district wards and parishes in order to meet purely numerical constraints. In it own words ‘the Commission aims to recommend a pattern of divisions that achieves good electoral equality, reflects community identities and interests and provides for effective and convenient local government. It will also seek to use strong, easily-identifiable boundaries. ‘Proposals should demonstrate how any pattern of divisions aids the provision of effective and convenient local government and why any deterioration in equality of representation or community identity should be accepted. Representations that are supported by evidence and argument will carry more weight with the Commission than those which merely assert a point of view.’ While a new pattern of ten county council divisions is suggested in this note, it is not regarded as definitive but does contain ways of avoiding some possible major anomalies.

We are well served by local services, the majority of which are located in Hucclecote, for example Hucclecote library, the playing fields (King George V Playing Fields), the community centre, dentist, doctors, shops, banks etc. Most of the primary school aged children in our street go to Dinglewell School, which is also in Hucclecote. With this in mind, it makes sense for the voters within our street to have the democratic right to have their say on these vital services that they actually use daily.

On 25 March 1988, we submitted to your predecessor our Report No 547, which contained our final proposals for changes to the administrative boundaries of the City of Gloucester, the Boroughs of Cheltenham and Tewkesbury and the Districts of Cotswold and Stroud. 2. In that report, we stated that we had made no proposals to deal with the electoral conseguences of the proposed boundary changes, and that our final proposals for consequential changes to electoral arrangements would be the subject of a separate report. In view of the nature and extent of the electoral consequences, we decided that they ought to be advertised separately in order to give local authorities and residents affected by them a full opportunity to comment. 3. In your Department's letter of 13 June 1989, we were informed of the then Minister for Local Government's decision, on behalf of the Secretary of State, to modify the proposals made in our Report No 547.

  • Proposal for the Gloucester City Area from Liberal Democrat Group Rationale Political Support
    Proposal for the Gloucester City Area from Liberal Democrat Group Number of Proposed Divisions: 10 Total Electorate for District in 2010: 89,990 Forecast Electorate for District in 2016: 95,347 Forecast District Average Number of Electors per 9,534 Councillor in 2016: Forecast County Average Number of Electors per 9,220 Councillor in 2016: % Co-terminosity with District Wards 0% Rationale The current district council wards consist of 1, 2 or 3 councillors and trying to create new county divisions from this is incredibly difficult with 100% co-terminosity impossible. Some polling districts are now more than 40 years old, taking little account of recent housing developments. Attempting to build new county divisions is also exacerbated by the different size of Gloucester’s polling districts. On the 2016 projections, in Quedgeley Fieldcourt, we have one polling district with 3,797 electors compared to a polling district in Longlevens with just 683 electors. This proposal is built up on existing communities, and borders are based on physical features such as railway lines, principal roads, natural barriers and watercourses. The proposal also ensures that 7 district council wards remain 100% intact. Political Support This submission from the Liberal Democrat group is identical to the proposal from the Conservative group for the following proposed seven divisions - D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6 and D8.
