Cracking Christmas dinners

The borough’s older residents

were full of festive cheer as they

ucked into free turkey dinners

at special Christmas events.

The popular annual events, which

ook place earlier this month, saw

undreds of local people aged

60 and over gather together to

welcome in the festive season.

Organised and run by the

Council, the free dinners provide

a perfect opportunity for older

residents in Waltham Forest to

spend time with friends and meet

new people.

There were four events in total –

one at Leyton Orient Football Club,

two at Walthamstow Assembly Hall

and one at Chingford Assembly

Hall – attracting a total of 1,070

local people. In addition to a two-

course dinner followed by mince

pies and chocolates, there were

performances from school choirs

and a live singer, and activities

including bingo, a quiz and a raffle.

Borough resident Doreen

Southgate went with five friends

to the first of the two events to be

held in Walthamstow on Tuesday 2

December.

Afterwards, she said: “It’s been

an absolutely brilliant day. The

entertainment; the children singing,

bless them, that was excellent –

they put on a good show.

“We’ve not stopped talking,

we’ve not stopped clapping and

the meal was absolutely first class.”

Seventy-year-old Victor Whittle,

from Highams Park, attended his

second Christmas dinner event –

having been before in 2012 – and

said he was enjoying it just asmuch.

He said: “I’m pretty good at

making friends and conversation –

I don’t know any of the people on

my table but we’ve had a laugh.

I’ve kept them amused; I’ve told

them all of my anecdotes – 70

years’ worth!”

Three friends from Leytonstone,

Hazel Buckley, Hong-Yoke Hepburn

and Pat Flannery, said the events

were a great way of meeting people

from all over the borough.

Cllr Angie Bean, Cabinet

Member for Adult Services, said:

“Events like the free Christmas

dinners are fantastic occasions

that celebrate our older residents

and acknowledge the valuable

contribution they make to the

Waltham Forest community.”

More money for parkn Council announces further £1million investment in parks and playgroun

n Programme of improvements planned for 12 play areas and six open sp

Waltham Forest is one of the

greenest boroughs in London,

with some wonderful parks and

open spaces to enjoy, and play

equipment ranging from pirate

ships to pterodactyls!

Recent improvements all

over the borough have been

complemented with the creation

of Leyton Jubilee Park in 2012,

which combined the 14 hectares

of Ive Farm and Marsh Lane

playing fields into one park. The

refurbishment of Drapers Field,

which was temporarily leased to

the Olympic Delivery Authority for

the London 2012 Olympic Games,

has also seen a wealth of new

facilities come to the borough.

The ongoing commitment to

improve parks, open spaces

and play areas in the borough

was underlined by the Council

recently when a further £1million

was agreed to be spent over the

coming year.

“We’ve had some fantastic

feedback from local people about

the work we have carried out over

the last year or two up and down

the borough to improve parks,

playgrounds and open spaces,”

said Cllr Clyde Loakes, Deputy

Leader and Cabinet Member for

Environment.

“We want to build on that

success and continue our ongoing

drive to create better leisure

opportunities for our residents

wherever they live in the borough.”

The £1million will be spent

during 2015 to improve 12 play

areas and six open spaces. The

sites were selected as those

most in need of renewal and

modernised play equipment, or

areas that could be made into

even better places for leisure.

The works will include the

refurbishment of a skate park

in Leytonstone, the installation

of a new artificial play surface

in Highams Park, and the

refurbishment of an outdoor gym

in Chingford.

Public engagement sessions to

explain the scope of the proposed

works will be carried out early in

the New Year, with installation

planned for the period between

Spring and Autumn.

The parks and open spaces

earmarked for improvement are

Abbotts Park, Cann Hall Skate

Park, Coppermill Park, Dames

Road Play Area, Henry Reynolds

Gardens, Highams Park, Hollow

Ponds, Jubilee Sports Ground,

Langthorne Park, Leyton Sports

Ground, Memorial Park, Pimp

Hall Park, Priory Court Housing

Estate Play Area, Ridgeway

Park, Sansom and Acacia

Estate, Queens Road Play Area,

Stoneydown Park and Vestry

Road Play Area.

The Council is committed to

ensuring that each renovated play

site has unique characteristics

and features that excite users

and stimulate their imagination

and desire to return. It is also

important that parks cater for a

wide range of people and offer

things people want to see and do.

The public engagement

sessions will be advertised in

Waltham Forest News and held

at venues near the play areas.

The events will give suppliers

and the Council the chance to

establish what improvements the

community would like to see in

their local play area.

In 2013-14 the Cou

£1.9million refurbishin

play areas. Improvem

spaces were also ma

Cllr Loakes added:

improvements, we ap

groups we recognise

instil a sense of owne

local community so th

are cared for and app

Mini HollandThe results of the Mini Holland consultation

into proposed changes to the Ruckholt

Road area have revealed a positive

reaction. Local residents and road users

completed surveys, attended drop-in

sessions and emailed opinions to the

Council, with 74 per cent of all respondents

‘very supportive’ or ‘quite supportive’ of

the scheme. Those ‘not supportive at all’or ‘not very supportive’ represented 19 per

cent of all respondents. There were also a

significant number of comments received,

providing constructive feedback on the

scheme’s design.

Pupils from Mission Grove School painted

murals about their local community

to celebrate a bridge reopening. The

Palmerston Road bridge has reopened

after eight months of work. The bridge,

which crosses over the Gospel Oak to

Barking rail line, was identified as being

weak in 2012 and made subject to weight

and width restrictions that prevented

buses and HGVs servicing Walthamstow

Market. It was therefore deemed

necessary to demolish the old bridge andreplace it.

pay £1,050 in fines and court

costs, having already had audio

equipment seized by Council

officers including a stereo, speakers

and a karaoke machine.

“We all enjoy our music but there

is no need to make our neighbours’

lives a misery in doing so,” said Cllr

Clyde Loakes, Deputy Leader and

Cabinet Member for Environment.

“This case shows that we willnot hesitate to seize equipment or

seek prosecution if amplified noise

is having a negative impact on the

quality of people’s lives. Hopefully

this resident will now think twice

before she decides to pump up the

volume.”

Neighbours contacted the

Council about Ms Dormer playing

loud music from her ground floor

flat. Officers visited the property

on a number of occasions and

Audio equipment was seized by Waltham Forest Council

found the noise to be excessive,

but despite issuing warnings

the complaints continued. This

gave the Council no option but to

instigate legal proceedings.

In court the Judge ordered Ms

Dormer to pay a fine of £500 for

seven separate offences recorded

between March and July 2014,

as well as £500 in costs and an

obligatory £50 victim surcharge.

She was also ordered to forfeit

audio equipment that had beenconfiscated by officers in May and

July 2014. In summary the Judge

stated that Ms Dormer’s loud music

had caused ‘daily living hell’ for her

neighbours.

Festive fun for older peoplen Pupils at Walthamstow School for Girls organise community

party for older residentsn Annual event is a school tradition stretching back more than

twenty yearsKind-hearted pupils at

Walthamstow School for Girls

bought festive cheer to some of

he borough’s older residents last

week, when they held an annual

community party.

The party, which is organised by

pupils with the help of Assistant

Headteacher, Gemma Bugden, took

place at the school (Church Hill, E17

9RZ) last Tuesday afternoon. More

han 60 older residents living near

he school attended.

Every year, the school invites

guests by sending letters to residents

ving in nearby care homes,

heltered accommodation units and

almshouses. Pupils and staff are also

asked to nominate people that they

hink would like to attend, such as

amily members, friends and perhaps

neighbours who live alone.

Gemma Bugden told Waltham

Forest News: “Our pupils have been

organising the community party

every December for more than 20

years. It’s a school tradition that the

students are keen to continue, and

I’m always heartened by how many

readily give their free time to help.”

She added: “This year, I was

inundated with requests from pupils

who wanted to help out. To allow

us to get everything ready, students

are usually allowed to finish early on

the day if they are not involved in the

party. But this year I was delighted

that instead of having an early day,

a huge number wanted to stay and

help instead.”

Each year group has a special

responsibility to make sure the party

runs smoothly. Year 7 pupils made

sure that there was a gift for every

guest, meanwhile Year 8 pupils

seemingly drew the short straw, and

washed up at the end of the party!

Year 9 pupils set and decorated the

tables and Year 10 food technology

students made the food from

scratch.

Gemma explained: “The Year

10 girls came up with the menu

themselves, and took a good month

or so to plan it properly. Feeding

63 older people is quite a feat for a

group of 20 students, but they did

some test runs and it was a great

success.”

Pupils and staff donated presents

such as chocolates and toiletries

to make sure that every guest had

a gift, while the party itself was

funded by a non-uniform day, where

students had previously paid £1 to

wear their own clothes to school.

As well as enjoying tasty food,

guests were also treated to live

music from the school’s Steel Pan

band and Christmas carols sung by

the school choir.

Janis and John Hooper, who live

in Leyton and attended the party,

said: “It was a brilliant afternoon and

we should be very proud of the girls.

They were lovely. We would like to

thank Walthamstow School for Girls

very much, and hope to come again

next year. This is the second year

we have attended, and we had a

wonderful time.”

Year 10 pupil, Simra Mehmood,

who helped out for the first time this

year, told Waltham Forest News:

“The party was really fun and a new

experience for me. My friend and I

decided we wanted to help as we

had heard people say how much

they’d enjoyed previous years’ events.

“I enjoy meeting new people. I

talked to a lot of guests that I think

I might not meet in my everyday life

and everyone said they had a really

nice time. It felt good knowing that

I’d done something that helped

other people have a fun day, and

I really want to help at next year’s

party as well.”

Michelle and Jake live in Chingford Mountwith their parents. Their older brother Michaelhas left home already to live with his partner.

Michelle, 19, has just started a health andsocial care course and hopes to go intonursing, Jake, 17 is learning to become aprofessional chef.

About a year and half ago while sitting aroundhaving Sunday lunch Jake started telling his

family about a friend who had been fostered.

“I had been around his house and met hisfoster parents. He told me he had beenliving there since he was 13 years old ‘cos of

problems at home but he was settled now.My mum wondered if we could foster as wehad a spare room now Michael had movedout. My dad loves kids and teaches youthfootball on Saturdays and my mum still helpsout at Brownies. When we asked Michael hesaid go for it.

This year Sam who is 14, will be having hisfirst Christmas with us. He misses his family

and it wasn’t easy when he first came - hewasn’t sure if we really cared about how hewas feeling but now he sees us as family too.We’re all looking forward to dad dressing upas Santa – we’ll have a big laugh about that.”

New year, new career.

Could your family support a foster child?In Waltham Forest we believe that all kinds of people, no matter their

background, can make a positive difference to a child’s life.

Foster carers receive a professional fee of up to and an allowance for eachchild. You could receive up to £423 per week/per child.

Boost for borough’sleisure centresn Leisure improvement project is delivering newly-refurbished fitness centres

n Thousands of residents are already enjoying the new facilities

Steps to create better leisure

acilities for residents across the

borough show no sign of slowing

down as the Council continues

ts efforts to help local people

tay fit and healthy. The Council embarked on a

multi-million pound investment

programme in 2012 to improve

s leisure centres – and residents

are already benefitting from newly-

efurbished centres in Chingford,

Leyton, Leytonstone, and

Walthamstow.

The final leisure centre set to

be transformed as part of the

mprovement project is Waltham

Forest Pool and Track. Plans to

turn the run-down centre into a

state of the art sport, health and

fitness facility called Waltham Forest

Leisure Centre are scheduled to be

considered at a Planning Committeemeeting on Tuesday 3 February

2015.

If approved, a first-class leisure

centre will be built – offering a range

of facilities including competition

and teaching pools, a new gym,

two dance studios, spa and sauna

area and a crèche. It will also have

1m and 3m diving boards and an

extreme sports area with a climbing

wall.

An artist’s impression of the fitness suite at the new-lookWaltham Forest Leisure Centre

In recent years, membership at

the centre has dropped by a third –

with people opting for other new and

improved centres nearby, rather than

the Pool and Track’s facilities, which

have needed regular repairs. The centre closed to the public

on Friday 24 October, but the

running track, which benefitted from

reconstruction and resurfacing work

last year, remains open to regular

users.

Residents across the borough are

already making the most of their new

and improved leisure centres, with

membership levels soaring.

Leyton Gym reopened last year

and now boasts a 100-station gym

and a spacious free weight and

fitness area. The nearby Leyton

Leisure Centre has a new 25m pool,

teaching pool, water flume and

aqua play features, a new reception,

changing rooms and two studios.From January to October 2014 there

were over 47,000 visits to Leyton

Gym and over 29,500 visits to

Leyton Leisure Centre.

The former Cathall Leisure Centre

reopened in October this year as

Leytonstone Leisure Centre. It has

a fully refurbished 25m main pool,

teaching pool and poolside sauna, a

new reception with fast track entry,

two-court sports hall, 100-station

HAVE YOUR SAY ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE

LOCAL COUNCIL TAX

SUPPORT SCHEME

Why are you consulting with residents again?

Over the summer, we asked for your views on proposals to change the current Council Tax Support Scheme. In light of a recent

Supreme Court judgement on another local authority’s consultation, the Council has decided to consult with residents again.

We want to ensure that residents clearly understand the options available to the Council to fund the scheme, why the Council is

proposing particular changes and reasons why we do not favour alternative options, including maintaining the current scheme.

Why are changes being made to the scheme?

The Council has identied a funding gap of nearly £3.5million between the cost of maintaining the current Council Tax Support Schemeand the grant from Government in the period 2015/2016 and 2016/2017.

The Council can make necessary savings by reducing the amount of Council Tax support available, and requiring all working age residen

eligible to receive Council Tax Support to pay more of their Council Tax. Currently, working age residents receiving Council Tax Support a

required to pay at least 15% of their Council Tax.

Alternatively, the Council could look to fund the scheme in other ways which are less preferred, including raising Council Tax or cutting

local services.

There are several options for how the new scheme may look and how the changes could be funded.

To nd out more about these options and complete the survey online

by Monday 5 January 2015, visit www.walthamforest.gov.uk/CTSconsultation

Free internet access is available at all libraries in the borough. You can also nd more information online, including a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) guide.

Printed surveys are available in all leisure centres and libraries in Waltham Forest. Alternatively, call 020 8496 3000

to request a copy.

We are consulting again on proposals to change how the current Local Council Tax

Support Scheme works, and we’d like to know your views.

Last chance to take part - consultation closes on Monday 5 January 2015.
