  • North Downs Biodiversity Opportunity Area Policy Statements
    Biodiversity Opportunity Areas: the basis for realising Surrey’s ecological network Appendix 6: North Downs Biodiversity Opportunity Area Policy Statements ND01: North Downs Scarp; The Hog's Back ND02: North Downs Scarp & Dip; Guildford to the Mole Gap ND03: North Downs Scarp & Dip; Mole Gap to Reigate ND04: North Downs; Epsom Downs to Nonsuch Park ND05: North Downs; Banstead Woods & Downs and Chipstead Downs ND06: North Downs Scarp; Quarry Hangers to the A22 ND07: North Downs Scarp; Woldingham ND08: North Downs; Banstead & Walton Heaths December 2015 Investing in our County’s future Surrey Biodiversity Opportunity Area Policy Statement Biodiversity Opportunity Area ND01: North Downs Scarp; The Hog’s Back Local authorities: Guildford, Waverley Aim & justification: The aim of Biodiversity Opportunity Areas (BOAs) is to establish a strategic framework for conserving and enhancing biodiversity at a landscape-scale, making our wildlife more robust to changing climate and socio-economic pressures. BOAs are those areas where targeted maintenance, restoration and creation of Natural Environment & Rural Communities (NERC) Act ‘Habitats of Principal Importance’, ie. Priority habitats will have the greatest benefit towards achieving this aim. Recognition of BOAs directly meets National Planning Policy Framework policy for the planning system to contribute to international commitments for halting the overall decline in biodiversity, by establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures (para. 109). Designation of BOAs in local plans will also fulfil NPPF requirements to plan for biodiversity at a landscape-scale across local authority boundaries; and identify & map components of the local ecological networks (para. 117). Explanatory BOAs identify the most important areas for wildlife conservation remaining in Surrey and each include a variety of habitats, providing for an ‘ecosystem approach’ to nature conservation across and beyond the county.

  • Family Resilience Consultation – Phase 1
    Family Resilience Consultation – Phase 1, Children’s Centres https://www.surreysays.co.uk/csf/family-resilience-childrens-centres/ Please use the notes below as a guide to help you complete the consultation. If you would like to talk more, then pop into our open sessions on • Monday 19th November 1pm – 2pm at West Street, Dorking, • Tuesday 20th November 11am – 12pm at Goodwyns Road, Dorking • Monday 26th November – 10am – 11am at Aperdale Road, Leatherhead • Wednesday 28th November – 10am – 11am at Aperdale Road, Leatherhead The consultation takes approximately 15 minutes to complete. QA – Are you responding on behalf of an organisation or as someone who lives, works or studies in Surrey? Q1a – Do you have any comments on the new family resilience approach? Please write your response in the box below (you only have 200 words to use in this section, so please consider carefully your response) You may want to consider these issues before you respond: • Can all families in need be supported on the large cut in budget Surrey suggest? • What about families in need of support who live a long way from a centre? • Less groups and universal sessions will increase isolation and may harm community cohesion • Volunteers may not offer the same level of service as Children’s centre staff • The Dorking site is already busy. Is there space to do all the work with health and partners that is needed? • Where will families go if the Stay and Play groups close? • Will the same advice and support be available from other groups locally? • Who will do all the early work with new Mums and young babies when Health visiting services are also being cut back? • Reducing universal sessions risks missing an opportunity to support families at an early stage in a child’s life, before issues escalate.
