  • Care and Support Providers
    Children, Adults and Health Care and Support Providers CCH44 November 2016 Care and Support Providers If you have been finding it difficult to manage at home, you might be considering arranging for a care and support provider to help you with personal tasks such as washing and dressing, or with help to prepare your meals. There are a number of ways you might want to arrange the help you need: You may wish to buy your support yourself from a provider, in which case this factsheet will help you know where to start. You may wish to be assessed by the council to see if you are eligible for council support. If you are eligible for support, the council may offer you its Promoting Independence Service, for up to 6 weeks, to help you do as much for yourself as possible, so that you can continue to live safely at home. Our Care Act Frequently Asked Questions document gives you more information on how we work out if you are eligible. Our pages on support at home give you details of other services to help you stay well. Further information is available in the document ‘Care and Support to help you stay in your own home: information on charges’ on whether you would have to contribute financially to support you receive from the council. If you are eligible to receive support from the council, the council can arrange support from a care and support provider for you. Alternatively, if you are eligible for support from the council, you may wish to have a direct payment, which means you arrange your own support and you make the choice about which provider to use.

Notes to support interpretation of assessment carried out in July 2009. Introduction • The Parks and Green Space Strategy was adopted by Bristol City Council in February 2008 with a clear aim to improve the city's accessible green spaces - providing new facilities, providing them where they are needed across the city and arresting the decline resulting from decades of under investment. • One of the funding methods adopted by the Strategy was to sell some green space and reinvest 70% of money raised back in to improving more important spaces. • Area Green Space Plan ideas and options papers, currently out for consultation until October 29th 2010, identify where potential disposal spaces are. How were potential disposal spaces identified: • The Parks and Green Space Strategy set out how potential disposal spaces should be identified. The minimum open space provision standards adopted by the Strategy were applied and a range of value criteria also considered. • The value criteria, as set out in the Strategy are given below: Community value This is an assessment of a site’s value to the local community based on both feedback from local people and knowledge of changes taking place in the area. Factor Example of type of considerations Level of use Current use and potential for improved use Community views of the Does the community think it’s important and why? space Views of different groups will be considered.

  • UPDATE: Distraction Burglaries – Bristol and South Gloucestershire
    UPDATE: Distraction burglaries – Bristol and South Gloucestershire Officers from Operation Remedy who are investigating a series of distraction burglaries are appealing for witnesses after another one took place yesterday (17/9) in Yate. At around 5.45pm two men attended the property of an elderly woman in Rodborough. One man approached the door and spoke to the occupant, before walking her round the side of the house. The other man was hiding in a bush and ran into the house while the woman was distracted. A neighbour witnessed it and ran out to stop them. The first man is described as white, around 35-years-old, approximately 5’8’’ tall and of medium build. He had short, cropped light brown hair and was very smartly dressed in a light blue shirt, navy trousers and brown coloured shoes, He was also carrying what appeared to be a blue laptop case in his hand, and was wearing a blue surgical type mask across his face. The second man is described as white, middle aged and wearing a dark coloured cap. He had longer hair that appeared to be tied up in a ponytail. Designated Investigating Officer from Operation Remedy, Alastair Binnie, said: “This is the eighth incident we have had in the area over the past few weeks where elderly people are targeted. Luckily, in the majority of the cases, the offenders have been unsuccessful in stealing anything, however it has been incredibly distressing for the victims. If anyone has seen any suspicious activity that they think could help with our investigation, then please get in touch immediately.
