  • CAVERSHAM and EMMER GREEN Reading Borough Council
    READING BOROUGH LOCAL PLAN EXAMINATION CAVERSHAM AND EMMER GREEN Reading Borough Council response to Issue 13: Are the policies for Caversham and Emmer Green justified, deliverable and consistent with national policy? Q1. Is the strategy for the Caversham and Emmer Green justified? Does the strategy appropriately reflect the concerns relating to infrastructure as set out in paragraph 8.2.5 of the LP? The strategy for Caversham and Emmer Green is justified. The reasoning for the strategy is generally set out within the text of the Local Plan itself. The level of development planned for the area stems from the assessment of capacity undertaken in the Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (HELAA, EV014 and EV015). This considered that the area could accommodate approximately 700 homes between 2013 and 2036, around 5% of the total planned for, but very little commercial development, as identified in paragraph 8.2.3 of the Local Plan. Caversham and Emmer Green has the lowest potential for additional development of the five areas. It is an existing residential area (with the exception of the small centres and some small concentrations of industry), where the opportunities for development even on previously-developed sites are very limited. There is some greenfield land within the area, but most of this is important for its recreation, landscape or historic value and should be protected. Much of the edge of this area adjoins the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is also heritage interest, in particular associated with the history of the area as villages and hamlets in their own right, separate from Reading.

A number of people from within the church community and the wider community of Purley have spoken to me about this œ expressing concern about the effects of such a withdrawal on our community life. I was glad to hear of that concern, but words of sympathy and concern alone are not enough. They will change nothing. What is needed is our action œ that has a real possibility to affect outcomes. So if you are concerned about the abolition of the Post Office Card Account, please do something to put that concern into action. Write to Martin Salter MP and ask him to sign the Early Day Motion tabled by Kate Hoey. (At the time of writing œ 9 March 263 MP's had signed it.) 1 THE RIGHT TO JUSTICE Whilst on this subject of words of concern becoming deeds of action, I would like to draw your attention to another matter of great importance.

Bright World has developed strong relationships with schools and colleges over the yearss so we have a tremendous knowledge of the schools, the education system and most importantly how international students can make the transition between their education system overseas and ours in the UK. We have excellent contacts with schools and understand the needs of international students very well. Schools fill up quite quickly during the academic year and we keep a careful note of the places still available week by week. To apply, send us the student’s name, date of birth and latest school reports with any further requirements and we will suggest schools that still have places in the correct year group for you.
