Housing need survey for Parwich, Ballidon, Bradbourne, Eaton & Alsop and Newton Grange
Local people with a connection to Parwich and the neighbouring parishes of Ballidon, Bradbourne, Eaton & Alsop and Newton Grange are being encouraged to take part in an online survey about their housing needs.
Derbyshire Dales District Council wants to hear from people who are living in accommodation that is unsuitable for them. For example this could be young people interested in setting up a home for the first time, families needing a bigger home, people struggling in high cost rented homes and older people who may have a need to downsize.
A District Council spokesperson said: “For many people, finding a home that is affordable in the Peak District can be a real challenge – and local shops and services, which help to keep our communities sustainable and vibrant, are put under pressure as the population changes.
“Our key corporate priorities include enabling new homes for local people and supporting the local economy – that’s why we are working in partnership with local parish councils and other community groups to deliver more housing.”
A postcard inviting residents to take part in the survey is being hand-delivered by local residents through every letterbox in Parwich, Ballidon, Bradbourne, Eaton and Alsop, Newton Grange.
The spokesperson added: “We have a strong track record of building small developments of sensitively planned affordable homes within the Peak District National Park. You can see recent examples in Bradwell, Youlgrave, Stoney Middleton, Elton, Calver and Bakewell. These are all occupied by people with a strong local connection to those villages and towns.
“We believe that there is a growing need to build affordable homes for local people in Parwich and the neighbouring parishes.
“However, before any options are considered, we need the community to help us identify what the housing need is. That’s why we’re calling on residents – or former residents with a strong local connection who have moved away and wish to return – to tell us about their housing issues.”
The survey can be completed online at www.derbyshiredales.gov.uk/housingneedsurvey or contact the District Council’s Rural Housing Enabler, Jeremy Mason, on 01629 761256 / jeremy.mason@derbyshiredales.gov.uk before the deadline of 22nd March 2022

A tree has fallen on Pump Hill. Some of the branches are hanging over the road. Charles B has offered to cut back the offending branches once the wind dies down a little. Take care if you are driving or walking around Pump Hill.

Just in case anyone has to venture out : I’ve heard that you cannot get to Matlock through Matlock Bath ( the road is closed between Cromford and the railway bridge going into Matlock) due to concerns about the wall retaining the river. There is also flooding in Crown Square, the park and the A6 (The Arc leisure centre road).

James Bond (Daniel Craig) is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica after leaving active service. However, his peace is short-lived as his old CIA friend, Felix Leiter, shows up and asks for help.
The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond on the trail of a mysterious villain who’s armed with a dangerous new technology.

Yesterday a large vehicle appears to have been done significant damage to the verges on both Creamery Lane and Kiln Lane.
If anyone knows which vehicle caused this damage could they please share this information with the Parish Council.

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
After weeks of rising oil prices, Brent Crude settles back to $92 a barrel as talks between Russia, the US and Europe continue in an attempt to de-escalate tension over Ukraine.
Delivery times are 7 to 14 working days. Delivery times are an estimated delivery time. Please allow plenty of time for your order to be delivered and take into consideration that with the cold weather comes higher oil usage so please ensure you have allowed enough time for delivery. If you are low on heating oil and need a quick delivery, this group order will not be suitable.
TIP: Show your tank some love this Valentines Day! Over time condensation and sludge naturally build up in your tank and can cause issues if sucked into your system. We recommend adding a bottle of additive to your oil to help break down any sludge and clear the injectors and pipes, and putting a water scavenger in every few months to absorb any water that has built up at the bottom of your tank.
Additives and water scavengers can be purchased from The Oil-Club Store. Please note, if you have an AGA then please ensure you order the cooker additive.
Rate: £0.5975 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])

On behalf of the Parwich Independent Welfare Fund….
On Saturday January 29th, Parwich Legion allowed us to hold a fundraising event in their club room, hosted by the Oddfellows, to raise money for the fund which supports members of our community when they need it.
The event was so well supported that we managed to raise a total of £2,380, which is a fantastic amount. A major part of this was the auction, which raised £1,060.
We would like to thank all those who donated all the raffle prizes, auction produce, knitted products, and cash donations we received, we were absolutely overwhelmed with the amount of items donated in support of our cause. We would equally like to thank all those people who bought tickets for our event and varying raffles, draws and the quiz as well as those who made winning bids for our auction lots (and those who helped to get the bids up) and all those who supported us on the night.
We would also like to thank the following who helped make this event run so smoothly:
Some of the night’s winners were:

Thanks again,
Carl and Emma.

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Oil continues its relentless rise with Brent Crude approaching $93 a barrel. Tensions between Russia and Ukraine, coupled with Cyberattacks on two German-based oil storage companies and reports of new attacks coming out of the Netherlands and Belgium have pushed prices to levels not seen for over 7 years.
Delivery times are 7 to 12 working days. Delivery times are an estimated delivery time. Please allow plenty of time for your order to be delivered, and take into consideration that with the cold weather comes higher oil usage so please ensure you have allowed enough time for delivery. If you are low on heating oil and need a quick delivery, this group order will not be suitable.
TIP: Give the inside of your tank a Spring clean! It is a good idea to add a bottle of Exocet additive to your tank every now and then to breakdown any sludge build up and clear the injectors and pipes. In addition, Exocet additive also lowers carbon emissions, stabilises fuel, and improves overall fuel performance. Additives can be purchased from The Oil-Club Store. Please note: If you have an AGA, then please ensure you order the cooker additive.
Rate: £0.6097 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])
