RESOLVED: “Newton & Noss Parish Council Climate and Environmental Emergency Declaration The motion for discussion tonight is that Newton and Noss Parish Council decides to declare a Climate and Environmental Emergency. The Parish Councillors recognise that as a result of human activity the earth is now in a period of climate change and at the same time environmental degradation. Therefore as the body which represents our local population at the grass roots level we call upon Government in Westminster, Devon County Council and South Hams District Council to do all in their powers to take measures aimed at halting climate change and to improve the environment for the benefit both of mankind and the rest of the natural world . The Parish Council already has a comprehensive Environmental Policy which is easily found on the website. We undertake from now on to cooperate with our neighbouring Parishes, local interested groups and Statutory Bodies to take what practical steps are open to us and to support others in actions aimed at carbon neutrality and environmental protection and enhancement. We are fortunate in this Parish to have a community orchard, playing fields, woodland and estuarine areas directly owned and managed by the Parish Council. Additionally, there is a woodland burial site and solar farm within the parish. The budget allows virtually nothing to support financially any new initiatives. the Council will be pleased to facilitate projects which the community can agree upon with climate and environmental protection as an aim.” Motion passed unanimously by Newton & Noss Parish Council. Potential Parish Council action in support of the motion was discussed. It was agreed to invite key members of organisations in the Parish and local environmental experts to an initial meeting with the working group in January. iii)Yealm Climate Emergency and Environment Action Alliance – the outcome of the latest meeting was discussed.

They would then be circulated to all local Parish Councils. They were working on the recruitment of Dementia Ambassadors and had held a session at Kitley House Hotel to present the proposition. On Tuesday 12th November they had attended the National Dementia Conference at The Guildhall Plymouth. Their stand had generated a lot of interest. The DFPY Chairman had been in contact thanking the Parish Council for the contribution and support Newton & Noss Parish Council, as a dementia friendly parish council, had made over the past 7 years to the establishment and sustainability of their charity. The charity had gained local, national and international recognition. Newton & Noss Parish Council, along with the other 4 parish councils, was promoted and mentioned nationally for its involvement in building inclusive dementia friendly communities at conferences and in the press. Newton and Noss Parish Council was well represented on the Board and Committee of Dementia Friendly Parishes around the Yealm by Caroline Hirst; who had a regular link to the Parish Council in the absence of a councillor nominated by the parish council. This arrangement was working well. DFPY had a range of activities across the parishes for everyone in the community to join particularly people with dementia and their families. The DFPY Chairman had met with Lord Gardiner, Minister for Rural Affairs, 22 October, who had been extremely interested in what the 5 parishes and their councils were achieving and had congratulated DFPY on their work. As a result, he had commissioned National Association of Local Councils to undertake an audit of all parish councils to find the number of parish councils promoting dementia friendly communities across the country. DFPY was self-funded and Newton & Noss Parish Council were requested, in planning its precept/budget for 2020/2021 to take into consideration the work being done in the parish for people with dementia and their families and the publicity and reputation Newton & Noss Parish Council was gaining as a result of its involvement with the project.
