  • Case Study: Bridging the Gap
    Case Study: Bridging the Gap The realities for communities, to deliver community-funded broadband improvements within budget and time? Is the commitment to communities driving UK Superfast broadband achievable? Or are the barriers of funding, red tape, monopolies, and delivery, just too difficult for most of us to overcome? Supporting Delivery of Gigabit Broadband The Hewelsfield and Brockweir parish is located in the West of the Forest of Dean District in the English county of Gloucestershire. Hewelsfield Broadband Group Hewelsfield Broadband Group was set up by residents to campaign for better broadband within the area. The existing infrastructure situation has resulted in substantial issues with broadband stability and performance; to compound matters with fixed broadband, the mobile network provides inadequate network coverage. Community Action The local residents have worked together to identify potential solutions to resolve the network issues. This included gaining local support, liaising with landowners Brockweir Bridge, River Wye, Western Border Hewelsfield and Brockweir Parish and finally contacting BT Openreach for a quote to install the infrastructure to deliver decent broadband (Circa £150k). Fastershire were approach, and have planned to roll out Gigabit Broadband to the area; this was not deemed to be rapid enough for the frustrated local community. Local Challenges Geography The parish is made up of a steep valley spreading up from the Wye at Bigsweir to a broader open rolling farmland where Hewelsfield is located. The local area is rural with two small village centres; there is a low population density and properties tend to be spread apart. Existing Infrastructure The local infrastructure is inadequate to provide the necessary broadband performance.

  • St Briavels and Hewelsfield & Brockweir
    THE PARISH OF TIDENHAM (& St Briavels and Hewelsfield & Brockweir) WEEKLY PARISH BRIEFING SUNDAY 5 JULY 2020 Changes Afoot. We are processing the guidance following the Government announcement that church buildings will be able to reopen for public worship from 4 July, and we will keep you informed of developments in the Parishes here, and dates/times of any gatherings. Please just be aware that even when we return to our buildings things are inevitably going be different. Online worship provision is likely to remain in place for the foreseeable future alongside any return. Victor Meldrew! Which one? I’ve certainly had my moments of moaning and complaining in recent weeks and months. I’ve moaned about the Government’s response to the pandemic, I’ve moaned about the media coverage and I’ve moaned about the leads getting tangled around my feet by my office desk! Oh dear, I can feel myself moaning about the fact I’ve been moaning! “It’s not the best way to live is it David?” The basics of CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) point out that our thinking affects our emotions and our behaviours. St Paul, who I think is a great psychologist, was all over this when he wrote his letters to the early Christians. “Be transformed by the renewal of your mind” (Romans 12:2) and, “be made new in the attitude of your minds” (Ephesians 4:23). He was well aware of the link between what our minds are up to and the feelings and subsequent behaviours that result, and the links there can be to our spiritual, physical and relationship wellbeing.

  • Elections – Polling Arrangements
    Elections – Polling Arrangements Review of polling districts, places and stations 2014 Background information If you have any comments or questions please contact: Geraldine Randall-Wilce Electoral Services Officer High Street Coleford Glos GL16 8HG. Tel: 01594 812626 [email protected] 1 Review of polling districts, places and stations General Information The Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013 introduced a change to the timing of compulsory reviews of UK Parliamentary polling districts and polling places. The next compulsory review must now be started; subsequent compulsory reviews must be carried out every 5 years. The last review took place in 2011. The local authority is responsible for designating polling districts and polling places whilst the Returning officer is responsible for decisions on polling stations. A polling district is a geographical area. Each parish/parish ward must be a separate polling district. A good starting point is to include the whole parish/parish ward as one polling district. If this is too large in order to provide easy access the area can be split into smaller polling districts. A polling place is the area or building in which a polling station is located and should be within the polling district unless it is not possible to find a suitable place. A polling station is the actual room or building where polling takes place. This information is available on the notice of poll and communicated to electors via their poll card. How the review is conducted The Council announces that the review is to take place. The Returning Officer must be consulted on the current arrangements and must make representations on the existing polling stations used.
