Parish Council Newsletter Winter 2016 An update from the Chairman Jim Wright Hi time has flown since my last update and I have a number of things to update you on, all of which equally important. It has been announced by members of the Deanshanger Day Centre, that a number of members of the volunteer team are stepping down at Christmas, they have been volunteering for the club for a number of years and now feel it is time to sit back and relax. I would like to sincerely thank the members who are stepping down for their time commitment and outstanding service they have given our village and our older residents over the years. The Day Centre is a massive asset to the village it provides a hot meal, meeting with like minded people who have retired and welcome the company and lunch every Thursday and had been going for over 30 years. Due to the volunteers stepping down, we desperately need help on Thursdays, the club opens around 7:30am am to set up table’s chairs and start the prep for dinner (all freshly cooked food) the members arrive by mini bus around 10am – they have tea/coffee play bingo or hold a raffle, then onto dinner and relax and depart about 2pm. The volunteer’s then tidy up put equipment away. What the club needs are people who can help on a Thursday with peeling veg setting up the hall, and clearing up. They also need help raising funds. If you can commit to helping on a Thursday, please contact Mrs Ridgway at the club or myself and I will pass your details on. I ask that you remember that for some who use the club it may be the only day they get out and see others, also the club guarantee’s that a hot meal is served which maybe the member’s only hot meal of the week and this is paramount to the wellbeing of the members of the club. Please note the Day Centre will be holding their November sale on 19th Nov, and the last dinner by the volunteers who are stepping down will be the 22nd of December. We will need volunteer’s in place for this time and in time for the next lunch a week later. Unfortunately, we have had resignations from two of our parish councillors Jamie Wilson and Chris Stevenson, both have worked hard for the council in the time they have been with us, I would like to take this opportunity to thank both of them for their hard work and commitment while serving on the Parish Council and both will be missed. An update from the Chairman – Jim Wright Continued… The village feast was held on the weekend of the 8th October with a fantastic fireworks display and as always the feast was well attended. Thomas Emmett is now running this event with the help of Kerry Reynolds and I would like to thank them for taking on this challenge and to all that supported the event especially the Beehive - The police, The Scouts, 1ST responders and all others that gave their time in running stalls etc. Kerry has put out a call on Facebook for anyone interested in having a stall or taking part in the event to make contact, so that we can have a bigger better event next year. If you feel you can help with the organisation next year please contact either Thomas or Kerry. We have had a number of reported issues in regard to parking and vehicles parked on grass and paths around the Co-Op, we have made contact with the store and also with the Highways at Northants County Council with regards to the concerns and issues. Highways have visited the site to make a plan of what could be done to alleviate the problem, we will update you once we have it confirmed from Highways what the plan is. Can I ask that all of you who use the store, that you think about other road users and pedestrians and that you do not park on the pavements or grassed area, there is parking by the Parish Council offices in the lay- by. The proposed crossing in Hayes Road, is still under discussion, the Highways planning team have gone away to look at what other options we have in regard to where the crossing goes, again we will keep you all informed on where we are with this. In regard to Hayes Road and the Co-Op school areas we are seeing more and more issues with parking and speeding, winter is with us we have dark nights and poor weather can I ask that when out in your cars you consider other road users and pedestrians especially children. Visit to Deanshanger by Simon Edens Chief constable of Northamptonshire. The visit was arranged after a letter was sent to him and the crime commissioner in regards to the future of our village and the youth of the village, crime and policing. The visit by Simon went very well, he had not been to Deanshanger and was very complimentary about our village and what we have done so far and that the Parish Council are engaging the police and other agencies in future plans for the village. I would like to thank the residents who have taken time to speak to me or message me regarding problems concerns or issues and as always I am more than happy to assist. I will make sure if I am asked to do anything I will do my utmost to give a prompt honest answer. Winter is coming on very quickly please take care if we have any snow ice fog wrap up well and keep safe, please take time to keep an eye on our older residents to make sure they are kept safe and well this winter. To end I would like to wish you all the best for the rest of the year, have a great Christmas and New Year.

Parish councils have the power to precept (tax) their residents to support their operations and to carry out local projects. The exercise of powers is at the discretion of the council, but they are legally obliged to exercise duties. Attending formal meetings The meetings are to conduct council business, these are formal & a code of conduct is to be followed. The public are welcome to attend the meetings, there is a section of the meetings which is closed and a 15 minute public forum is opened.

Here are some of the things he has done: Repainted the British Legion bench in Puxley Road Painted/stained benches around the village including on The Green, The Ridings and Springfield Park. Painted black and white street signs on Glebe Road, High View, Ridgmont and Puxley Road He continues to litter pick wherever he is working and clears the litter in the multipurpose sports area in Springfield Park every week. Removed branches that have been pulled off of trees in various locations and made safe. Repaired play equipment Removed graffiti off of play equipment Re-painted play equipment Installed Bins and benches in the village This is by no means all that he has done but it gives you an idea of how he has helped improved the look of the village. The Parish Council have extended the contract for another 6 months and he has a long list of work to be done including the following: Repainting the WI bench on Puxley Road Repairing/replacing and tidying all 9 of the Parish Council notice boards If you have any suggestions as to what the handyman can do, please contact the clerk at [email protected] Thank you Alex for all your hard work. Summary of ideas from DPC Questionnaire Earlier in the year the Parish Council sent a questionnaire to all homes in the village asking for your ideas and thoughts. Although over 1500 questionnaires were issued but we had only 42 responses.

    2015/2016 Report to Parish Council Re: Deanshanger Village Heritage Society

    Deanshanger Annual Parish meeting 22 April 2016 Report booklet Deanshanger Parish Council The parish council would like to thank the residents of Deanshanger for voting for them in the 2015 elections, it’s been a challenge as well as hard work, but though the learning curve is a steep one, the council is delivering results now and has plans for 2016 which will help the village. The parish council have maintained the same precept as 2014/15 which is excellent news to residents as there has been no increased costs. The Council have all finances and the records up to date to ensure the monies secured and held by the Parish Council are accountable and the use of funds is widely known. The council has the precept as well as some secured funds from development in the village. There is also the New Homes Bonus which groups of Deanshanger have access to apply to for funds. We have this year looked to work with the police to ensure we have issues facilitated and managed and worked with the police to maintain a safe environment. Also working with the police and the community to support Neighbourhood Watch and understand where we can support new initiatives such as street watch. The council has seen a lot of a change with new councillors, now up to capacity along with a new clerk. All of which has been exciting and challenging, to ensure that the running of the council is in order, up to standard and for everyone to understand the polices which sometimes have been challenging due to the amount of bureaucracy involved.

The consultation ran for eight weeks between 14 September 2015 and 9 November 2015.
