Chesham-Guide-To-Services.Pdf To request a FREE copy to be posted to you, please telephone: 01494 732103 (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm) or email: [email protected] A4 or A5 copies available. A guide to services for older people living in Chesham & surrounding villages FREE OF CHARGE Edition 1 1 2014 Dear Reader, I am delighted to present this guide to services for older people living in Chesham and the surrounding villages. It has been designed by Chiltern District Council to act as a signpost; to highlight some of the many sources of help and information available in the local area, offered by voluntary and charitable organisations. This guide has come about as a result of requests from local organisations working with older people, and I would especially like to thank Chesham Over 50s Positive Action Group (COPAG) and Chiltern Citizens Advice Bureau for leading the calls for a printed directory. We are blessed in the Chiltern District to have many organisations working together for the benefit of older people, and every effort has been made to ensure that the information contained in this directory is correct at the time of printing. It is impossible to capture all of the local organisations but we hope that the directory does provide a good starting point for many enquiries. I hope you will find this directory helpful and will keep it handy to use time and time again. Councillor Peter Hudson Cabinet Member for Community & Leisure at Chiltern District Council Ward Member for St Mary’s and Waterside in Chesham 2 Information Contained in this Directory are mainly voluntary and charitable organisations. There are also a couple of commercial organisations listed. Not all services within this directory are free of charge so please ensure you check to see if there are any costs for the service you enquire about. This directory can also be found on the website by visiting: www.cheshamopag.org.uk. Printed copies are available at Chesham Library, free of charge. If you would like a copy in bold print, or an A4 sized printed directory please contact Barbara Richardson (details on the back page of this directory). Again, it is free of charge. We will be pleased to receive any new or updated information and also any comments you have to improve the directory via the feedback form on the last page. This directory is totally free of charge thanks to funding by Chesham & Chiltern Villages Local Area Forum (with money devolved from Buckinghamshire County Council). 3 Index For alphabetical list of organisations contained within this Directory see pages 57-59.

  • Chiltern District Council Election Results 1973-2011
    Chiltern District Council Election Results 1973-2011 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
