  • Lancashire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    Lancashire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities Second edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… Foreword written by: Bill Oddie OBE This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. Lancashire’s countryside has much to offer; from the gritstone fells of the Forest of Bowland to the sand dunes of the Sefton Coast. There are some great opportunities to view wildlife too, including red squirrels and marsh harriers. It is more than worth taking that first step and getting yourself involved in your local countryside, regardless of your abilities. For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help us to encourage better access for all in the future. This Second Edition published Summer 2019 Copyright © Open Country 2019 There are some things that some disabilities make “ more difficult. The countryside and wildlife should not be among them.

  • Dear Colin, Thank You for Contacting Blackburn with Darwen Borough
    From: To: Sub22 Consultation Cc: Programme Officer Subject: HED DPD Submission Stage - Representation by Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council Date: 08 September 2017 11:57:36 Importance: High Dear Colin, Thank you for contacting Blackburn With Darwen Borough Council (BwD) regarding the submission version of your proposed Housing & Economic Development DPD. In line with previous representations, BwD have comments to make on Policy HAL2: Land at Wilpshire. As previously noted, there are strategic issues affecting BwD which will need to be addressed in relation to site HAL2. Please refer to our previous comments for full details. In summary, the impact of the potential housing development on the highway network and educational facilities within BwD will need to be assessed through the Development Management process, and suitably mitigated. Major housing developments in North Blackburn close to the Ribble Valley borough boundary are progressing - Parsonage Road, North Blackburn( Rugby Club site, Ramsgreave Drive), and Roe Lee. Presently, the Parsonage Road site is under construction, planning applications are under assessment for a further 300 dwellings, and two masterplans have been adopted (North Blackburn and Roe Lee) which will progress around 250 further dwellings. As a result, the developments have been or are required to contribute towards mitigating the impact on infrastructure in terms of highways and educational facilities in the local area. It is considered that the proposed allocation of land at Wilpshire will have a similar impact on the highway network, notably the Parsonage Road / A666 signalised junction, the Brownhill Drive / A666 signalised junction and surrounding network. The reason for our comment at this stage is because BwD strongly suggest that the above impact on infrastructure is a key development consideration which should be identified within the HED DPD as a potential constraint.
