  • why do we need CPADs?
  • how do defibrillators work?
  • how to give basic life support

Speeding in Staveley

New fencing- Could you help?

 
All going well, we will be removing the old fencing along Main Street/ Wath Lane on Saturday 22nd May.
Anyone with the energy to use a spade who hasn’t already signed up please get in touch. Helen.north@staveleyandcopgrovepc.org.uk
It’s a huge job which will benefit everyone in the village and needs sharing!
 
         
 
 

Respecting, Protecting and Enjoying access to our local countryside

 
A new Countryside Code was launched by Natural England UK on April 11th. with the key messages: Respect, Protect, Enjoy. The Code emphasises how by following the code we can share the valuable resource – our country side. It includes new practical advice, such as stay on marked footpaths to protect crops and wildlife, even when it is muddy; and some friendly positive advice, such as  Say ‘Hello’ to people you meet.
We are fortunate to have a variety of walking routes in our area.   
 
Other paths in the area are permissive routes- where the landowner allows public access (which is much appreciated). For example, the access along and around the old railway track in Staveley is made available to us by the current landowners, but there are no acquired rights of public access. 
 
Walkers should respect any notices, barriers or fences that might be put in place by a landowner, which may indicate where permitted access ends and further access is not given.
In particular, please respect  that at the Minskip Road end of the railway embankment  there is no permitted access to the area beyond the fence and no exit from the embankment.  
As a general request, please encourage everyone to respect the rights of landowners and follow the advice of the Countryside Code. The following easy to follow points are useful and imperative to protecting our lovely area:
  • Please stay on the designated route if you cross an open field.
  • Keep dogs close to avoid damage to crops and disturbance to habitats, and keep dogs on leads anywhere when there is livestock near.
  • Bag up all dog poo  and take it home  with you.
  • If you come across a locked gate or a fence preventing access, please do not attempt to enter.

An invitation to the Annual Parish Meeting- 18th May 2021

Each Town or Parish in England holds a yearly Parish Meeting which is open for all electors within the Parish to attend. The history of the meeting originates back to the times in the Middle Ages when Local Councils did not exist and there were fewer ways for a community to share ideas.

The meeting is an opportunity for all electors to come together to share views, news and celebrations relating to the local Parish in which they live. Anyone may attend and all who do so have a right to speak for a limited time on any matter of local interest.

Minutes will be kept from the meeting and if there are matters raised for the Council’s attention they can be included in future Council meeting agenda’s for consideration. It is an additional opportunity to ensure Local Councillors may be alerted and informed about local views. 

Everyone in Staveley is invited to attend the meeting. If you are involved in a local group/organisation that benefits the community you are invited to share a short report about your activities. Or if you are an individual passionate about the village and local area, you may want to voice positive ideas  that may help the Council to improve it still more. 

Please contact Liz at clerk@staveleyandcopgrovepc.org.uk to indicate if you will attend and with any  details of comments or reports you want to have included on the meeting agenda.

The meeting is being planned in line with Covid Secure requirements. Details of venue will be confirmed on the website after 11th May.

All items to include on the agenda must be shared by 7th May 2021 please.
