This is an Important Bus Service As the Route has Elderly/ Disabled People and we don't think this fair a 1 hour bus service is quite Inadequate

This is a valuable asset to the people of Maghull and used regularly as a green space.It is a social venue and provides an important sporting venue for young and old.

It is not glamorous and can sometimes be unpleasant but we do it because no-one else will. Community Furniture Aid (CFA) is a fine example of what can be done, on a local level, to help the poorest in society as it recycles unwanted furniture and household items, donated by the public. It works with over thirty agencies including SSAFA, Womensaid, Homeless charities and the local council so as to furnish homes for the poorest in society who have lost everything and cannot afford to buy new or even second hand. With over a million people using Foodbanks, in the last year in the UK, and millions more living below the poverty line, we are now seeing the need for help, not just with food, but with the general household items that many of us take for granted. Hidden poverty is not truly accepted in our society but this charity deals with it on a regular basis. In the 21st century we are still finding children sleeping on concrete floors, houses being flooded but the clients too poor to afford insurance, beds being re-possessed from finance companies and people running away from abuse and having to start afresh. In the last three years this tiny charity has fully furnished 275 houses which were all referred by agencies and saved over 150 tonnes from going to landfill. All this has been done by gathering up items that the local community were going to dispose of. Whether they changed their bed or ordered a new sofa, emptied a house of someone departed or just had a general clear-out, all the items were gathered and put into packs. In a throw-away society, by taking a moment to think “Could this be of use to someone else”, we could help end hidden poverty and reduce the amount of waste contaminating the country. One of the latest deliveries found us making up a bed and a five year old saying "what you doing mister?" I explained that I was putting feet on the bed so that it was not on the floor and the child dashed downstairs to tell his mum that he did not have to sleep on the floor anymore. Then we furnished a house for a lady who had suffered terrible abuse and it had taken two years for her to gain the confidence to live on her own again. Arriving with just a bin bag full of clothes, she looked at the bare walls of the empty property and started crying as she did not know how she could furnish the whole house. However, after we delivered all the essential items such as a bed and bedding, storage units, sofa table and chairs, curtains, pictures and kitchen items plus some extras, she was crying for a different reason. She could not believe that people would be so generous and she could start her life again. Another situation arose when an elderly lady had been discharged from hospital, after a long stay, only to find that her furnished flat had been re-let and she was moved into a totally empty property. On arrival we found the lady sitting on a chair, with her zimmer frame, in distressed state as there was no carpet or even light bulbs in the empty flat. Although a care plan should have been in place, for this lady, she had slipped through the cracks and we were there to help at the crisis point. And finally, SSAFA referred a gentleman who had been discharged from the army with PTSD. Shut down and not knowing what he needed, the charity provided everything that makes a house a home, so that he could start his rehabilitation, without the worry of having to source everything himself. In the current economic climate and the increase in the use of Foodbanks, a network of dedicated storehouses for household items would help ease the burden of the poorest in our society from suffering in silence.

This is so important to the students well being and mental health having that much debt and the amount going up daily and never being able to pay it off is so disheartening seeing a statement like these is so worrying

A little girl was injured the other day on that stretch of road, it needs to be looked at especially when the road links to two Schools.

It is a well known fact that great pleasure was taken in relegating the club to the lowest league and in fact some wanted them banned all together. This is not about sporting integrity. It demonstrates the small mindedness of those whose only focus in life is convincing themselves and others of a bias in favour of RFC from football authorities, press, etc. It is time that focus was centred on their own clubs and the issues within. It is time to move on.

To restore the service that was unilaterally taken away to the isolation and disenfranchisement of the community around Henllys and their friends and family from elsewhere. To restore accessibility to The Dorallt Inn, The Court Henllys Hotel, The One Stop Shop, and the Henllys Village Hall for the Cwmbran community and elsewhere.

Its very important to have a pool that is suitable for all and to have a friendly environment that is taylor made for all abilities, a pool that young children and all ages with or with out a disability can stand or sit down independent with out being held at all times, its important for people to gain confidence by them self, sense of accomplishment, boost their confidence, relaxation for people with a disability is very important and to be able to use a pool that is suitable for them has many great benefits. also at the same time mixing with all kinds of people, with out being segrated,swimming as a recreational activity leaves you with a positive feeling which improves your mental health, individuals with disabilities can get more health benefis by being physically active, even though I believe evey one is unique, people with disabilities are limited in opportunities to be as physically active as people with out. allso I strongly believe its as much as important for young children to be able to stand in the water independently, and walk freely around. it will bring visitors and those who vist here from around to want to use our pool, as the pool we have now is not suitable for all to use in a freely independent way, as the shallowest end is 1meter high therefore no where suitable for some one who is under that height to use the pool independenly , its important for people to enter a pool unaided for confidence building.

The Travel Centre at York Station is a centre of excellence with highly professional, knowledgeable, friendly staff but Virgin Trains East Coast, (VTEC), have announced plans to “revamp” York Station including the Travel centre. VTEC want: New shops and a first class lounge. An open plan “customer zone” in the Travel Centre with fewer ticket staff and more ticket machines. Staff will no longer sit behind counters but sell tickets with hand held devices or help customers to use ticket machines. If staff numbers are cut, queues could grow longer because: Many passengers dislike using machines and prefer a face to face service. Some people cannot use a machine and need assistance including those with disabilities e.g.: physical and learning disabilities; visual impairments and mental health problems People need advice about routes, timetables and fares. Rail services across the UK are fragmented, therefore passengers rely on the knowledge and expertise of the staff. Hand held devices would be inadequate for this. Some people prefer paying cash over a counter. Not all people use credit or debit cards. York has a large number of foreign visitors; some struggle to read English. There are also fears that the introduction of more shops will compromise the aesthetics of the historic, grade-two listed building

In the continuing debate relating to public sector pay caps, the rhetoric is being consistently presented that the choice is between responsible restraints or tax rises. What is being quietly ignored is the vast amount of money, counted in many £Billions, that continue to disappear from the UK into secrecy jurisdictions each year. Austerity is an ideologically motivated policy designed to transfer wealth from ordinary people (in this case nurses, teachers, police and fire officers, etc.) to the pockets of the wealthy, and it continues to work just as designed. Ordinary people continue to suffer real-terms pay cuts whilst businesses and wealthy individuals carry on cheating the system.

It is important that our Shire Hall is used and preserved being of historical significance to the town. It is totally unnecessary to have a new development built for the purpose of the History Centre when we have this building vacant that would bring character to the project rather than a costly development made of glass.
