  • Spring Newsletter 2019 (No 58)
    Spring Newsletter 2019 (no 58) Message from the Chairman Connecting up with young people Over the years one of the main aims of the Town-Twinning Association has been to foster links between young people in the respective communities of Epsom and Ewell and Chantilly. This has not always been an easy task, for various reasons, but in the past few weeks I am pleased to say there have been some positive developments. With the kind assistance of our contact Marie-Claude Fontaine, Ewell Grove primary has made contact with an equivalent age range school, the École Paul Cezanne, in Chantilly. Teachers at the two schools have been working on ways that the children might enhance their language skills through mutual communications and it seems that this will get off the ground this coming September. Another Chantilly school, the École du Coq Chantant, has also expressed interest and there have been some communications with St Martin’s in Epsom. I’m assured that teachers at St Martin’s are ‘on the case’. I hope to have updates on both these encouraging contacts in the next newsletter. In February, Town-Twinning once again supported Epsom Rotary’s French-speaking Competition, which this year saw contestants from the upper and lower schools at Blenheim High School, Rosebery and Epsom College take part. The standard was very high and judging to find the winners was not easy. But the main thing was that all the young people clearly enjoyed taking part and speaking French. Let’s hope that for 2020 we can encourage a few more schools, and some more boys, to take part.

  • Epsom & Ewell Biodiversity Action Plan
    Epsom & Ewell Biodiversity Action Plan Progress report for 2013 Introduction During 2013 the Epsom & Ewell Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP) Working Group oversaw significant progress in implementing the plan which can be viewed here: http://www.epsom-ewell.gov.uk/EEBC/Environment/Biodiversity.htm The importance of Biodiversity: Biodiversity encompasses the whole variety of life on Earth. It includes all species of plants and animals, their genetic variation, and the complex ecosystems of which they are part. It is not restricted to rare or threatened species but includes the whole of the natural world from the commonplace to the critically endangered. The intricate network of ecosystems, habitats and species comprising biodiversity provides the support systems that sustain human existence. It provides many of the essentials of life, our oxygen, water, food, clothing, health and relaxation. Consequently, humanity must adopt sustainable ways of living that ensure the protection of biodiversity. Today we live in a world where the economic activities of an ever increasing human population threaten biodiversity which is being lost at an ever increasing rate. Britain alone is known to have lost 100 species during the twentieth century. There is a broad consensus around the world that we need to act now, or risk handing our children a world we would not recognise as planet Earth! 1 | P a g e The 'Working Group' currently comprises the following individuals: Mark Berry: Head of Planning, Epsom & Ewell Borough Council Stewart Cocker: Countryside Manager, Epsom & Ewell Borough Council Sarah Clift: Senior Countryside Officer, Epsom & Ewell Borough Council Jeremy Young: Tree Officer, Epsom & Ewell Borough Council John Edwards: County Ecologist, Surrey County Council Alastair Kirk: Surrey Biological Record Centre Manager, Surrey Wildlife Trust Conor Morrow: Project Officer, Lower Mole Countryside Management Project Kevin Morgan: Locally based ecologist and environmental consultant The plan agreed in 2010 contains 7 objectives, comprising 23 targets with 45 actions.
