  • Re-Organisation Proposal for the Benefice of Bentworth, Lasham, Medstead and Shalden (BLMS)
    Re-organisation proposal for the Benefice of Bentworth, Lasham, Medstead and Shalden (BLMS) Due to financial difficulties in the Diocese of Winchester, plans are being considered at the moment for a re-organisation of the North Hampshire Parish Boundaries, of which the Benefice of Bentworth, Lasham, Medstead and Shalden, within the Deanery of Alton, is a part. If agreed upon, this would make the saving of one stipendiary post (vicar), as the individual BLMS parishes will be merged with already existing parishes. The proposal is that the parishes of Bentworth, Lasham and Shalden will merge with the Parish of the Resurrection in Alton and the parish of Medstead with the Parish of the Good Shepherd, Four Marks. This is part of the consultation process which will be ongoing in the next months. There is an information pack issued by the Diocese of Winchester which gives more information about the proposals for the Deanery of Alton. Please read those additional papers which should be on this web site. An important aspect of how churches are managed is called governance. The governance options for the present BLMS churches are that, when joining the parish in Alton or Four Marks respectively, they could: a) Remain as Parish Churches b) Become individual ‘Chapels of Ease’ c) Convert to ‘Festival Churches.’ In remaining a Parish Church, it retains its PCC; its burial, baptism and wedding rights and the obligation to pay its parish share (known here as the CMF). Description of ‘Chapel of Ease’ A chapel-of-ease can have any number of services (a minimum of 6 is recommended), but does not normally (traditionally) have burial, baptism or wedding rights, though the Bishop could licence it for such.

    Basingstoke Rural West Covering the wards of: Baughurst and Tadley North; Kingsclere; Sherborne St John; Burghclere, Highclere and St Mary Bourne; East Woodhay www.hampshire.police.uk Welcome to the Basingstoke Rural West Newsletter, November 2019 Your neighbourhood policing team includes: PC Simon Denton PC Jon Hayes You can contact the team at [email protected] — though this address is not monitored every day. For reporting crime, call 101 or go to the Hampshire police website www.hampshire.police.uk. Community Priorities The current neighbourhood priority is Burglary. A residential property in Cannon Heath, Overton, was broken into during daylight hours and jewellery was stolen. An electric bike was stolen from a garage in Ecchinswell. Some facts about burglaries (sources in brackets). Most burglaries take place between 10am and 3pm. (Safestyle UK) The average burglary lasts for eight minutes. (Dr Claire Nee, Unviersity of Portsmouth) Many burglaries are ‘spur of the moment’ decisions by a burglar who notices an open door, open window, valuables on display or some other weakness. (Thames Valley Police) The vast majority of burglars will want to avoid meeting the home’s occupants at any cost. (The Independent) A burglar may typically examine many houses before finding one that looks like an easy one to steal from. Homes with no security measures in place are five times more likely to be burgled than those with simple security measures. Good window locks and strong deadlocks can make a big difference. In most burglaries, the criminals broke into the house or flat through the door, either by forcing the lock or kicking it in.
