Codnor Sports Charitable Trust require a new Codnor Parish Council representative as a Trustee as one of the previous representative has resigned due to them leaving the village. Our Chair Cllr Mark Howard has agreed to take up this position.
Members may be aware that the Trent/Barton 1A bus service which runs up Waingroves Road and Church Street, Waingroves, was suspended last December. It has been confirmed by the company today that has been permanently been suspended. This is a severe blow, not just to Waingroves residents but also Codnor residents especially ones who live at the top of our village. Bear in mind that the 2 housing developments included travel plans using local bus transport as part of their proposals which were approved. Cllr David Williams of Ripley Town Council, Cllr Isobel Harry and myself have been campaigning to get the 1A route reinstated and hence we are all disappointed, however today I have put a proposal to the Stagecoach bus company requesting them to look at re-directing the 148 bus to turn right out of Cross Lane onto Heanor Road and then onto Waingroves Road and through to Ripley. I will update members when I get a response.

THE PENTRICH REVOLUTION BICENTENARY CLAIMING OUR PLACE IN HISTORY
In June 1817 over 300 men set out for Nottingham from villages on the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire border as part of a rising to attempt to bring down an unjust government.
This was a remarkable and desperate period of local history and thanks to funding from the Parish Council an Information Board has now been installed at the Clock Tower Building to commemorate the revolution’s bicentenary.

At the Codnor Parish Council Civic Service a collection is taken. It is a tradition that half of the collection goes to St James Church to thank them for their support with the service and the other half goes to a charity of the Chairman’s choice.
This year the Chairman of the Parish Council decided to donate to the Butterfly Suite at Royal Derby Hospital which is a charity very close to his heart. He also added a further donation from his Chairman’s allowance to bring the total up to £200. The Butterfly Suite is where parents can stay and be supported when they have a still birth or miscarriage. It is set away from the rest of the labour ward and the parents there can have privacy as well as medical support if needed. The Chairman of the Parish Council, Councillor David Jowett said “I am pleased to be able to donate this money to The Butterfly Suite. When my son was stillborn my wife and I couldn’t have got through it without the help of Sue Rucklidge and her team. I hope that nobody has to use the suite, but if they do it is important that it continues to be as good as it can be.” |
PUBLIC TOILETS REFURBISHED AND RE-OPENED ON SATURDAY 11 MARCH 2017Codnor Parish Council are pleased to announce the completion of a £6,500 refurbishment of the public toilets at the Clock Tower on Alfreton Road.
The refurbishment comprises much improved unisex and disabled facilities with CCTV on the entrance and an electronic opening and closing mechanism. The toilets will be open seven days a week between 9 am and 5 pm. The toilet block has suffered from frequent closures caused by vandalism in the last couple of years and the Parish Council hope that the new facilities will be respected. Improved security and CCTV monitoring of the entrance will hopefully help. The Chairman of the Parish Council, Councillor David Jowett said “I am pleased to announce the reopening of this much improved facility and hope that the public will use them and respect them. This has cost a considerable amount of public money and if they are vandalised again the Parish Council would have to seriously consider closing them” |
