It took place during the evenings of 22nd and 23rd May at the New Windmill Hall in Upminster and, as usual, a number of St George’s congregation were in the audience. Some of us went along on the first night and, as always, we were delighted to see the enthusiasm with which the cast threw themselves into the production. This year’s performance was called “Robin Hood saves Avelon Road” in which the eponymous hero set out to defeat the evil sheriff (with the help of Mystic Meg) and rescue Maid Marion by completing 5 very difficult tasks. As always, congratulations must go to the staff at the Centre who mastermind the production - devise the plot, write There are so many ‘thank you’s, I don’t 5 and unders, Holly and Amber in the 6-9 the script, choose the appropriate music, want to miss anyone out but I will start years and Chloe and Phoebe in the 10 and devise the sets (which are very with thanking God (as it should be) for overs. rudimentary but perfectly adequate) and the perfect Fun Day weather, hot sun and More thanks go to everyone who helped encourage the cast to put on such a the relief of passing clouds plus a gentle setting up and/or clearing away, bringing moving and inspirational performance, breeze; and we give thanks for the many cakes and/or serving teas, entertaining in which they obviously enjoy as much as opportunities to befriend people who don’t the music group and/or painting faces, the audience. usually go to church, people who just saw plus demonstrating campanology or It would not be appropriate to single out the boards and came along, baptism manning ‘Beat the Goalie’ activities, and if any particular member of the cast, as families who stayed on after the service, I’ve missed anyone out, I’m really sorry! people have such different abilities and visitors from other churches and of Praise the Lord and see you next year! not everyone could take on a speaking course, our own church family, who we role.

Continue along Bridge Avenue to Brookdale Avenue on the left and opposite is Hornchurch Stadium.

While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website.

What is less well known is that it is also one of the best places in the world to enjoy wildlife, and to acquire the skills of a naturalist and wildlife photographer. A large and varied network of reserves and some of the best wildlife-visitor infrastructure in the world, means that London is a surprisingly good destination for wildlife photographers, naturalists and tourists. The presence of a number of local natural history clubs and societies who organise field meetings led by outstanding all-round naturalists means it is also probably unmatched in the potential it offers for people to build their skills as naturalists. Furthermore, London has a long history of having some of the world’s pre-eminent scientific and biological institutions, together with smaller local societies also with long histories staging public talks ranging from cutting edge science to discovering wildlife in your backyard. London is amazing for enjoying wildlife and for developing field skills. For tourism companies, London is attractive with its high density of affluent travellers with an interest in wildlife.

SUMMARY The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) is undertaking a review of the London Borough of Havering’s local government electoral arrangements. The outcome of the review being implemented in readiness for the 2022 Council elections. In September 2019, the Council recommended to the Commission that it retain its existing cohort size of 54 (Part 1 submission). The Commission subsequently informed the Council that it was minded to agree to the proposal. For its Part 2 submission on warding arrangements, the Council proposes a pattern of 22 wards across a total membership of 56 councillors. The proposal gives a councillor / elector ratio of 1:3728 (by 2025). The Council considers that it has drawn up a ward arrangement which the Boundary Commission will find acceptable by meeting the statutory criteria for a successful electoral review. 2. ABOUT THE BOROUGH Havering is an outer London borough and the third largest in London, comprising 43 square miles. It is mainly characterised by suburban development, with almost half of the area dedicated to open green space, particularly to the east of the borough.
