March Film: West Side Story

Winner of Best Motion Picture in the Golden Globes. Directed by Oscar winner Steven Spielberg, “West Side Story” tells the classic tale of fierce rivalries and young love in 1957 New York City.

This reimagining of the beloved 1957 musical stars Ansel Elgort (Tony); Rachel Zegler (María); Ariana DeBose (Anita); David Alvarez (Bernardo). Love at first sight strikes when young Tony spots Maria at a high school dance in 1957 New York City. Their burgeoning romance helps to fuel the fire between the warring Jets and Sharks — two rival gangs vying for control of the streets.

If you live in the village hang your head in shame.

Donations for Ukraine

I am collecting supplies for Ukraine for a friend of mine who is organising a delivery lorry. She is based in Mansfield and is also looking for people who can help pack items and load the lorry. Medical items, toiletries and nappies can be left in the green box on the wall outside my house; The Cottage, Nethergreen. If you are able to help in Mansfield then please contact me for further details.

A massive thank you to everyone who donated prizes, helped sell (big shout out to Jane at the pub) or purchased tickets we are really pleased to announce that £670 was raised. The school are so appreciative and have already placed an order for their new books.

The school children picked out the winning tickets on Tuesday and all winners have been contacted.

Personally I would really like to thank everyone in the community for supporting the school. The school is a real family and its so important to keep it in the heart of the village.

If you have any questions about the raffle please contact me on lucywigley@googlemail.com

Computer services…?

Does anyone know anyone, or a company, that they would recommend in relation to looking at laptop issues? I have an error message that says that my SSD (disk) has ‘degraded reliability’ and only has 3% life remaining!! I have only had this message since windows auto updated to windows 11. Having spent over 1 1/2 hours on a chat line with MS support yesterday I need to actually speak to someone who knows what they are talking about and who can potentially replace the drive without me having to re-install everything from scratch (if that’s possible).

Thanks

Housing Needs Survey

Update from Parwich Parish Council Clerk.

Housing Needs Survey for Parwich is currently underway.

It is about halfway through and will run until the 22nd of March. 

Several questions have been raised by residents which I will try to answer for you.

Q. Will this result in new homes being built in the village?

A. Not necessarily. If there is a demonstrated local need then a housing association could apply for planning permission to build. If they did they would be subject to all the normal planning application processes. Without a demonstrated local need though a planning application would not succeed.

Q. How many homes might be built?

A. Developments are typically sized to address a third of the demonstrated local need.

Q. Will these homes be for those who identified their need in the survey?

A.  This is actually quite unlikely. Because of the time needed to develop new homes many people’s current needs may have been met some other way by the time they are built. Or unfortunately they may have found that they had to move elsewhere. The assumption is that if there is a need now, then there will still be a need when any homes are built. But it may not be the same people.

Q. Might these homes just end up becoming holiday lets?

A. Current legislation places restrictions on ownership and rental to prevent this. This restiction passess with the propoerty even if it is sold on. This was not the case in the past where ‘Right to Buy” legislation allowed some properties to end up in the rented holiday or second home sector.

Q. Would these just be starter homes for young people?

A.  No. They could be available to anyone will a suitable connection to the village who could not find housing here which was affordable. For example a relative who wanted to move to the village either to care for, or be cared for by, someone living here.

If you have any further questions please contact

clerk@parwichparishcouncil.org.uk

Please encourage anyone who might have, or has had, a housing need which they could not meet in the Parish to complete the survey.

Local help needed

Looking for someone part time, local, who is flexible, to help with the children etc.

Blue and Green Bins Tomorrow

But sadly no food caddy.

The permanent closure today of the privately owned Vital Earth reprocessing facility in Ashbourne means residents are asked for the next four weeks to mix food waste in your domestic waste containers.

All food caddy collections are paused from tomorrow (1 March).

While Derbyshire Dales District Council remains one of the few councils locally to offer separate food waste collections, we apologise for the temporary inconvenience to our residents.

Vital Earth has for a number of years recycled food and garden waste from Derbyshire Dales collections into compost, used in horticulture and sold in bags at local garden centres.

The District Council has been negotiating with Serco on the new arrangements and has identified alternative recycling sites in the north and south of Derbyshire that will take the district’s garden waste, which means garden waste collections continue unchanged for residents on bin collections.

Unfortunately while one of the new sites will accept garden waste in compostable sacks, the other will not and we cannot split the Dales into separate collection areas. Residents on sack collection rounds who subscribe to our garden waste scheme have already received a direct communication from the Council about this.

We have identified an alternative option for food waste disposal and will update you on this in four weeks when operational details have been finalised with Serco.
