Precept In 2014/15 the average parish precept in Malvern Hills District was £43.66 per household and the range from £100.42 to £1.53. The precept for Alfrick & Lulsley was £36.58 the 19th largest out of 53. Population Alfrick & Lulsley is the 22nd largest parish in Malvern Hills. Between 2001 and 2011 the population grew by 14% (6th highest in the District), compared to the district growth of 3.4%. Households The number of households has increased from 255 to 292. With a (dwellings significant increase in population this results in the size of households with remaining at 2.36 persons. The number of single person households has residents) increased by 35% from 49 to 66 (23% of all households). 59% of single person households are single pensioner households this has increased by 39% from 28 in 2001 to 39 in 2011. Older people The number of persons aged 60 and over has increased by 42% from 179 to 254. Persons aged 75 and over have increased by 46% from 50 to 73. The population has aged significantly and that trend is likely to continue. Children The number of persons aged 0 to 15 has increased by 4% from 108 to 112. An upward trend is found in only one third of parishes. Deprivation The Index of Multiple Deprivation shows that 7 households (2.4%) are deprived in three out of the four dimensions of employment, education, housing and health and disability, at a district-level the percentage is 3.2% However, Housing or Council Tax benefit claimants are at the District average and JSA claimants are higher than the District average. Cars and vans The number of households with no access to a car/van has remained at 14 but this still means that 5% of households rely on other means of transportation. Health The percentage of the population reporting good or very good health in each parish ranges from 91% to 75%. In Alfrick & Lulsley it is 84% but the number of people reporting that they are healthy will likely reduce as the population ages. Considerations How to ensure that care and support for older people is sustained and developed as the population continues to age. Working in partnerships with other parishes and the statutory authorities is likely to be helpful. How to minimise social isolation as the number of single person households increases. How to sustain and develop public transport services particularly for the 5% with no access to a car or van. How to ensure that deprived households have access to supporting services and benefits. Promotion of the CAB Community Liaison Volunteers may be helpful. .

Home Choice Plus has been designed to improve access to affordable housing. The advantage is that you only register once and the scheme allows you to view and bid on available properties for which you are eligible across all of the districts. Home Choice Plus has been developed by a number of Local Authorities and Housing Associations working in partnership. Home Choice Plus is a way of allocating housing and advertising other housing options across the participating Local Authority areas. (Home Choice Plus will also be used for advertising other housing options such as private rents and intermediate rents). This booklet explains how to look for housing across all of the Districts involved in this scheme. Please see website for further information. Who is eligible to join the Home Choice Plus register? • Some people travelling to the United Kingdom are not entitled to Housing Association accommodation on the basis of their immigration status. • You may be excluded if you have a history of serious rent arrears or anti social behaviour.
  • Lime Kilns in Worcestershire

    Lime Kilns in Worcestershire

    Lime Kilns in Worcestershire Nils Wilkes Acknowledgements I first began this project in September 2012 having noticed a number of limekilns annotated on the Ordnance Survey County Series First Edition maps whilst carrying out another project for the Historic Environment Record department (HER). That there had been limekilns right across Worcestershire was not something I was aware of, particularly as the county is not regarded to be a limestone region. When I came to look for books or documents relating specifically to limeburning in Worcestershire, there were none, and this intrigued me. So, in short, this document is the result of my endeavours to gather together both documentary and physical evidence of a long forgotten industry in Worcestershire. In the course of this research I have received the help of many kind people. Firstly I wish to thank staff at the Historic Environmental Record department of the Archive and Archaeological Service for their patience and assistance in helping me develop the Limekiln Database, in particular Emma Hancox, Maggi Noke and Olly Russell. I am extremely grateful to Francesca Llewellyn for her information on Stourport and Astley; Simon Wilkinson for notes on Upton-upon-Severn; Gordon Sawyer for his enthusiasm in locating sites in Strensham; David Viner (Canal and Rivers Trust) in accessing records at Ellesmere Port; Bill Lambert (Worcester and Birmingham Canal Trust) for involving me with the Tardebigge Limekilns Project; Pat Hughes for her knowledge of the lime trade in Worcester and Valerie Goodbury
