Message from Anita Roberts.

Today we have received through our letter box, a letter from Saxonby Homes advising that they are currently working in partnership with a local housing association to establish the current demand for affordable housing in Baschurch and asking people to contact them if they are aware of a number of scenarios i.e a son or daughter who can't afford to live in the area, a family member who has moved away due to lack of affordable housing etc.    I am aware that this is the company that has applied for planning permission on the pony paddock at Baschurch and am concerned that this is an underhand way  of drumming up support for their scheme. Are you able to highlight the connection through your database so that others are aware.    Many thanks and kind regards    Anita Roberts  Sent from my iPad

Patient Community Workshops

Message from Colin Case.

These are public events if anyone wants to go:-

Additional dates announced for patient and community workshops
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Dear Colleague
 
The NHS Future Fit programme is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform health services for patients and communities in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and mid Wales.
 
It has two starting points. Firstly, the needs and expectations of patients, carers and other experts by experience – for example, the feedback received through the Call To Action, from complaints & compliments, from patient surveys, and through other patient engagement and leadership programmes. Secondly, the knowledge and expertise of doctors, nurses and other health professionals – drawing on evidence of “what works” locally, nationally and internationally.
 
One of the big messages we have heard from patients is that they want any plans for the future of health services to be clinically led.  So, we have asked local GPs, hospital doctors, community nurses, therapists, paramedics and more to look in detail at: What have our patients told us about the types of health service they need? and, what does the evidence tell us and how do we measure up locally?
 
The first phase of that work is under way right now and we’re looking for people from Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and mid Wales who are keen to test the ideas that our clinicians are starting to develop. We hope that you will also want to help to take the debate out more widely to your communities, networks, neighbours and workplaces. Everyone should have the opportunity to be part of this debate and this can only happen with your help.
 
A vital part of NHS Future Fit is to bring together patient perspectives from the whole catchment served by local acute and community hospitals.  So, the next step will see three patient and community leadership events taking place in Shrewsbury to bring together people from mid Wales, north Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, south Shropshire and central Shropshire:
 
·         Thursday 27 February, 2pm to 4.30pm (tea and coffee will be provided)
 
Venue: Shropshire Education and Conference Centre
Mytton Oak Road
Shrewsbury
Shropshire
SY3 8XQ
 
·         Tuesday 4 March, 2pm to 4.30pm (tea and coffee will be provided)
·         Tuesday 4 March, 6.30pm to 9pm (a buffet supper will be provided)
 
Venue: Shrewsbury Town Football Club, Arthur Rowley Room
Greenhous Meadow
Oteley Road
Shrewsbury
SY2 6ST
Phone 01743 289177
 
The programme is the same for each event so you only need to attend one.
 
At these events we will work together to:
 
·         Hear from local clinicians about work so far
·         Test and challenge the early ideas from local clinicians – How does this feel for a patient? Do I know where to go? Do I feel safe?
·         Agree how we will take this discussion more widely to patients and communities across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and mid Wales.
 
So, these events aim to bring patient and community voices and the next step will be to take the debate out to towns, villages and communities right across the area.
 
We’ll also be looking for volunteers to be interviewed – whether on camera or on paper – to help us bring the debate to more people. There will be more information about this nearer the time.
 
How to book
 
If you would like to attend the workshop please email Haroon Jabar in the NHS Future Fit team (haroon.jabar@nhs.net) stating which date and time you would prefer.
 
Thank you in advance for bringing your insight and experience.

Nesscliffe Young Farmers 70th birthday

Message from Margaret Lycett.

This year Nesscliffe Young Farmers’ Club is celebrating its 70th Anniversary with an event to be held on 3rd May at Wood Farm, near Adcote.

Margaret Lycett, who is handling ticket sales for the event, is keen to contact anyone who was ever a member of the club from its inception in 1944, who would like to join in the celebration, but who has not already been contacted.

It will take the form of a dinner dance with a champagne reception, entertainment and memorabilia displays.  It is hoped to seat 500 people and, until the end of this month, tickets priced at £30 each, will be offered to past members/club associates and their partners, after which guests will be able to buy tickets.

If you are a past member of Nesscliffe Young Farmers’ Club or you know someone who was, and have not yet been contacted, please get in touch with Margaret.

We had a World War II Home Front Exhibition in Ruyton (2005) and now Colleen Hughes is putting together a World War I Home Front Exhibition in West Felton.

The Exhibition will also include a special commemorative church service and supper in June.

This is not about war but about those who were left behind, what was it like in West Felton and surrounding area.  For instance, who lived in your house, what do you know about them.  What businesses were operating?  How much was a pound of butter or a pint of beer?   What were people wearing etc.  Any information you know about the years of 1914 - 1918.

Tony Harrison of West Felton is a professional family history researcher and is working on the names on the West Felton War Memorial.  He points out that hardly anyone owned  cameras at that time but here in Ruyton we had a professional photographer - does anyone know of family pictures taken by Frances James Cocks who lived at Riversdale opposite the garage and next to our village shop.

Colleen is going through the West Felton Monumental Inscriptions for two local churches looking for clues like -
if John Smith died in 1920 at Manor Farm and his wife died in 1927, then the chances are they were both living there for the duration.

If you would like to be involved in this research or have anything which would add to Colleen`s research, do please contact her:-

About the Market Hall:

The Market Hall is a two-tier, indoor market hall situated in the heart of Shrewsbury Town Centre.

 

It is jointly run by managing agent Jones Lang LaSalle, which is responsible for the permanent stalls located around the perimeter of the market floor and gallery, and Shrewsbury Town Council which manages the canopied stalls in the centre.

 

The Market Hall is situated above a range of well known high street and independent retailers. Busy trading streets, Shoplatch and Claremont Street, run either side of the building.

 

It opened in 1965 and is today home to many traders offering a selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fresh fish, delicatessen, a selection of eateries, books, china, antiques, collectables and contemporary arts and crafts and much more.
And three exciting places to eat. Y.
