Bredon
people have called for action over drivers who speed through their village.
But they have been told that they're the ones at fault....Full
Story
19th Nov, 2006
Fellow Bredon
villagers,many of you are aware that
Bloor Homes have had plans to develop the Stanway Screens site and The
Dell with 38 homes and a B1 office.
They have now submitted an appeal to overcome Wychavon Council decision
to reject it.
If approved the resultant increase in traffic (survey says a factor
x 2.5 vechicles) will impact on the safety on the Main road and The
Dell, this will cause many problems for the school crossing and the
residents of The Bredon Lodge and The Dell.
Bloor Homes and Stanway Screens have all ready cut trees down at the
rear of The Dell thus removing one reason for rejection.
Please help show support against this appeal to the inspector by a show
of heads at the meeting.
Don't let Bloor Homes put a blur on Bredon Village There will be an
appeal meeting held at the village hall from 10.00 am
for 3days on 28-30 November
Thank you for you support

Nov - New Arrivals In Tewkesbury!
October proved to be a very, busy month for one Tewkesbury vet...in
more ways than one! Not content with the happy arrival of a new baby
in the family, Brad Cooper has also embarked upon a fresh, new business
venture at the same time...taking over the reins of Folly Gardens Veterinary
Clinic in Barton Road, Tewkesbury from retiring vet Simon Harvey.
Brad Cooper, 31, has forged close links with Tewkesbury over the past
9 years. "It has always been my ambition to open a veterinary practice
in Tewkesbury. I have lived and worked in the town and played rugby
for Tewkesbury in the past and really like the people here. Now I live
in Kemerton and enjoy the sense of community the people in this area
foster. When Mr Harvey told me of his wish to retire it seemed like
the ideal business opportunity."
Brad has had experience of working in two other practices within the
town as well as working in Churchdown. For the past 7 years Brad has
worked at the Dragon Veterinary Centre in Cheltenham. "I feel working
and living in this community has given me a strong sense of what pet
owners in Tewkesbury want...quality veterinary care at affordable prices."
Brad's second son, Barney, was born in mid-October...only two week's
later Brad arrived at Folly Garden Veterinary Clinic! "It has certainly
been a busy few weeks...it is a very exciting time for me - both personally
and professionally. I think I have the better deal at the moment...I
get to meet my new clients and their pets whilst my wife gets to change
the nappies! I'm not sure how long she will put up with this arrangement!"
