Since receiving the last magazine we have had a General Election where possibly the most striking tone of the campaigning was its Reverend negativity rather than any inspiring messages. It seems we will have a referendum in 2016/17 on Europe and as a country we have chosen to clear the deficit, have a surplus Jo and give the NHS £8 billion by 2020. How will this be done? By cutting welfare and other budgets; encouraging wealth creation Writes... by cutting taxes; or other measures? However it’s achieved we may be entering a difficult time where poverty, whether financial or emotional, might increase within our communities. Emotional poverty often occurs when we feel disrespected, fearful or oppressed which may lead us to blaming others or ourselves, and can destroy our joy and wellbeing. When our country is involved in making big decisions, as in the Scottish referendum and the General Election, this is exactly what happens. And it’s not just the politicians. This negative way of communicating is not loving others; loving others is to respect each other’s differences and to listen to each other. If we do this it results in thriving communities that have respect and inclusivity at their heart. For example, during the European referendum we could give this a go by holding our own forum, where respect, listening and freedom are central to our discussion. Financial poverty is most definitely here in rural Britain. Being short of money in the countryside has a different effect than when you live in a town or city. In rural life financial poverty isolates, travelling becomes an expense too far and even joining in with community activities is often not possible when one is expected to pay a fee or buy raffle tickets etc. Not being able to participate can feel embarrassing and increase our isolation; very often asking for help becomes impossible. As a community we need to be sensitive and aware of this situation and above all inclusive, “Love one using our imaginations to enable everyone to attend and enjoy activities - this surely would be an example of loving others as another as God loves us. Now more than ever it is essential that we see and hear each I have loved other clearly, as we live together with all our different poverties and opinions and form communities that are open to everyone. you...” Jo Lacy-Smith (Associate Priest) – 6 – The Parishes of The Winterbournes & Compton Valence TEAM RECTOR TEAM VICAR Rev’d Canon Thomas Woodhouse (01305 267944) Rev’d Jean Saddington (01305 889992) ASSOCIATE PRIEST Jo Lacy-Smith (01305 889476) The Parish of the Winterbournes There is a single Parochial Church Council for Martinstown, Steepleton and Abbas but each parish church retains its own local church committee.

  • The Team Rector Writes
    The Team Rector Writes... Dear Friends, When Bishop Nicholas visited the deaneries of the Diocese during Lent 2015 to develop our conversation around the vision RENEWING HOPE – PRAY, SERVE, GROW, he challenged us with three questions: What do you pray for? Whom do we serve? How will you grow? Questions that might at a first glance seem easy to answer: I want to encourage you to take time this Advent to look at those questions and allow yourselves to be more challenged than you expect! Advent and Christmas are seasons for the renewing of hope and I wonder whether we might try sharing our stories of hope with each other, as we seek to tell the greatest story of hope? At the start of diocesan meetings we now spend time sharing our stories of hope, talking about the things that have given us hope recently. First a candle is lit as the centre of the meeting – symbol of Christ’s presence in our midst; the Bible is read and studied; then people tell one another their stories. Simple but profound and challenging too! It is easy to be busy and preoccupied by the needs and demands of the day, especially in preparation for Christmas! But how life giving and holy it is to seek out and name those moments when hope has erupted. For some Christmas is unbounded joy and excitement, for others it is painful and troubling. However, it is the moment when we reflect on the truth that God became a human being; forever to experience our joys and sorrows alongside us.

  • Water Situation Report Wessex Area
    Monthly water situation report Wessex Area Summary – November 2020 Wessex received ‘normal’ rainfall in November at 84% LTA (71 mm). There were multiple bands of rain throughout November; the most notable event occurred on the 14 November, when 23% of the month’s rain fell. The last week of November was generally dry. The soil moisture deficit gradually decreased throughout November, ending the month on 7 mm, which is higher than the deficit this time last year, but lower than the LTA. When compared to the start of the month, groundwater levels at the end of November had increased at the majority of reporting sites. Rising groundwater levels in the Chalk supported the groundwater dominated rivers in the south, with the majority of south Wessex reporting sites experiencing ‘above normal’ monthly mean river flows, whilst the surface water dominated rivers in the north had largely ‘normal’ monthly mean flows. Daily mean flows generally peaked around 14-16 November in response to the main rainfall event. The dry end to November caused a recession in flows, with all bar two reporting sites ending the month with ‘normal’ daily mean flows. Total reservoir storage increased, with Wessex Water and Bristol Water ending November with 84% and 83%, respectively. Rainfall Wessex received 71 mm of rainfall in November (84% LTA), which is ‘normal’ for the time of year. All hydrological areas received ‘normal’ rainfall bar the Axe (69% LTA; 61 mm) and West Somerset Streams (71% LTA; 79 mm), which had ‘below normal’ rainfall. The highest rainfall accumulations (for the time of year) were generally in the east and south.

  • Charminster Farm Phase 3
    Application Number –WD/D/19/003097 Site address: Land West of Charminster Farm, Between Wanchard Lane and A37, Charminster Proposal: Erection of 82 dwellings, access, landscaping, allotments, public open space and associated works. Applicant name: Lewis Wyatt (Construction) Ltd Case Officer: Bob Burden Ward Member(s) Cllr David Taylor 2.0 Summary of Recommendation: Delegate approval to Head of Planning subject to: - entry into a s106 agreement to address affordable housing (35%), provision of public open space with management/maintenance details, -Re-location of allotments (with specification details); -Establishment of vehicular and pedestrian links with Phase 2/land to east; -Financial contributions towards the implementation of Traffic Regulation Orders for : -extension of 30mph speed limit on Wanchard Lane, -restriction of motor vehicle access along Wanchard Lane, -weight restriction along Weir View. And conditions. 3.0 Reason for the recommendation: Absence of 5 year land supply Para 14 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out that permission should be granted for sustainable development unless specific policies in the NPPF indicate otherwise The location is considered to be sustainable and the proposal is acceptable in its design and general visual impact. There is not considered to be any significant harm to neighbouring residential amenity. There are no material considerations which would warrant refusal of this application 4.0 Table of key planning issues Issue Conclusion Principle of development Whilst the site lies outside the defined development boundary the council does not currently have a 5 year housing land supply; this strengthens the case for accepting this development. Furthermore, it is a site which was identified as a Preferred Option for development in 2018- and that is likely to be carried forward in the emerging new Local Plan.
