Parish Plan - Action Group Update<br />

The Parish Plan Group are looking for a new Secretary to take over<br />

the role from Helen Weight. If anyone wishes to find out what the role<br />

entails they can contact Helen on 07530 895677 or the group’s Chair<br />

Pete Higson on pete.s.higgy@btinternet.com on 0161 775 2802.<br />

Look of the Parish Action Group<br />

Planters around the Parish have added Summer colour thanks to the<br />

group’s volunteers who have been pruning, watering, planting and<br />

maintaining these. Litter is an ongoing problem, but is much improved<br />

thanks to the regular Parish Litter Picks. The next one is Saturday<br />

11th February, meeting at the Black Swan at 10am - see p.17 for details.<br />

More hands are needed so please support this if you can. The group<br />

continues to help address dog fouling by providing doggy bags - see<br />

p.20 for how to report incidents of dog fouling.<br />

Getting Around Action Group<br />

Following a request by the Group, a recent traffic survey was carried<br />

out on Glazebrook Lane which highlighted a substantial number of<br />

vehicles travelling over and above the police enforcement speeds.<br />

The outcome is that 9 new 30mph camera signs will be erected from<br />

the A57 traffic lights all through the village to Woolden Road. As a<br />

result of the survey the Police are also looking at specific places and<br />

times to locate mobile radar cameras along the lane. On the cycling<br />

front, the Group continue to attend East Neighbourhood Meetings to<br />

push for proposed cycle routes along the A57.<br />

Recreation & Leisure Action Group<br />

A guided ‘Winter Walk’ within the Parish is being organised by the Group<br />

for Sunday 8th January - see p.16 or details. Everyone most welcome.<br />

Social and Community Action Group<br />

The Parish Plan Group could use the IT skills of a young volunteer to<br />

assist with social media and group mail shots. If you are interested<br />

in lending a hand and want some volunteering experience to add to<br />

your CV, please get in touch - contacts below.<br />

Next meeting - Wednesday 15th February 7.30pm, Glazebrook Methodist<br />
