  • A Vision for Our Future Kirkheaton Future Writes
    Your FREE MAGAZINE for Kirkheaton, Upper Heaton, Gawthorpe, Bog Green, Briggate, Houses Hill, Wellhouse ISSUE 21 & Lascelles Hall NEWS SUMMER 2018 A vision for our future KIrkheaton Future writes.... Our draft Neighbourhood Plan is due for completion by August 2018 and you will then have a third chance to have your say on the future of Kirkheaton. Various workshops and the comprehensive survey of residents and businesses in 2017, have already highlighted what people want our future village to look like. The overwhelming view was that: • the village should, as far as possible, remain within the boundary of the present built-up area • brownfield and small sites should be developed first for housing and other purposes this issue • business and jobs should be promoted INSPIRATIONAL • green spaces should be retained and enhanced SARAH • the transport and road system should be improved MULTI SPORTS • priority should be given to the building of affordable and extra care housing CLUB Also through preparing the Neighbourhood Plan a number of previously unknown RECYCLING issues have emerged which are now being incorporated into the plan. EYESORE They include • the need for additional recreational facilities • the urgent requirement for extra care housing to meet the needs of older and vulnerable people now living in unsuitable standard housing • the importance of protecting and managing our historic and ecological heritage in a more effective manner. Concurrently Kirklees Council is compiling its own draft Local Plan. We have presented the views of Kirkheaton at the Local Plan Examination and hopefully the draft Local Plan will be amended in order to reflect the village’s priorities and preferences.

  • Annual Report 2018-19 Denby Dale Community Project, Operating As
    Annual report 2018-19 Denby Dale Community Project, operating as Denby Dale Community Library The Trustees are pleased to report another successful year. We provide a safe and welcoming building for the community of Denby Dale and surrounding villages, together with a small and well-used community car park. The building provides a free space for Kirklees Council to run a community-supported library, thus preserving a popular service within the village. It also provides a community hub for a wide range of activities, both formal and informal. The building benefits from a café and gift shop, run by Kirkwood Hospice, a local charity. Improvements to our building We have raised additional funds this year to improve the energy efficiency of our building. We received grants from Kirklees Councillors, the Parish Council and the The Cheridan Raithby Charitable Trust. These have been used to improve our green credentials by installing more energy efficient internal lights and putting photovoltaic panels on our roof. As well as saving us money, this has helped to reduce our carbon footprint by a total of 2.6 tons in 2019. Our external noticeboard has been renovated so that we can more effectively promote events in our building and in the local area. This is a service welcomed by clubs, choirs, charities and churches in our community. Feedback from our community During the year we conducted a survey within Denby Dale and the surrounding villages that form the catchment area for our library. We were delighted to receive 170 responses, representing a return rate of over 10%.
