Welcome

Today Portsmouth Football Club announce plans to locate their state of the art Training Facilities to Cherque Farm, Lee-on-the-Solent. We feel this is an excellent plan for the club and most importantly the community as it will deliver world class sports facilities to the children of gosport that no council could ever provide. It will also expedite the opening of the Alver Valley country park. We hope that all residents groups in Lee-on-the-Solent share our excitement and get behind the plans. We are confident that through proper dialogue any concerns and issues can be addressed . We would urge any concerned residents to contact us at daniel@cherquefarm.com or post on the forum as we are trying to strike up a relationship with the club to answer residents concerns.

"I am the Neighbourhood Watch Coordinator for Glenney Close and a co-opted member of the Gosport Neighbourhood Watch Association. I set up the Glenney Close NWS Scheme nearly a year ago and am in the process of trying to interest other groups of houses on this estate to follow suit. To this end I have been leafleting various Closes and part of David Newberry Drive and had a strong response from those upon whom I have called. To date it seems likely that at least two new NW Schemes are nearing the inaugural meeting stage.

If there is anyone who wishes to know more about how to go about the setting up of a scheme for their own area I would be more than willing to give guidance and help. Please contact me in the first instance by e-mail mikefellows@clara.co.uk"

Lee-on-the-Solent could qualify for up to £240,000 development assistance under the £1.2 million Market Towns Initiative promoted by Hampshire Market Town Partnership and led by the Economic Development Office at Hampshire County Council. Grant funding is available for projects aimed at improving services, generating new jobs, creating new businesses or enhancing learning opportunities to make a significant impact on the town's economy. To access these new grants the town needs to prepare a comprehensive survey and analysis report on the town's economic, social, transport and environmental situation. This "Market Towns Health Check is the essential first step in developing an Action Plan for a range of projects. It gives residents the opportunity to influence local plans, have a say in the town's future and to represent the town's interests by speaking with one voice. It is an extremely important tool for providing evidence for funding applications, for example for a new community facility, transport or environmental improvements. An interim work group has been formed who would like to hear from local people interested in helping with the execution and management of the necessary work and to hear from Lee residents and businesses their ideas for potential schemes to help the town. A public meeting will be organised early in 2005 to formalise the working group and launch the Health check process. In the meantime, offers to help and requests for further information should be made to Bob Squirrell tel:02392 554287 bob.squirrell@kognosys.co.uk Richard Needham tel: 02392 552855 richard@hiport.co.uk Alison Roast tel: 02392 796601 leeresidents@yahoo.co.uk Further information can be obtained from www.countryside.org.uk 02/12/2004 Megson Drive: You may be wondering why the park on Megson Drive has always got the gates shut. Having spoken to a Persimmon the reasons are logical! Persimmon are not allowed to open the park to the public until the grass, trees and shrubs have had time to establish. Experts from Gosport Borough Council regularly inspect the progress of the vegetation and as soon as they feel that it can cope with the impact of children and adults enjoying the facility they will grant Persimmon access to open. As plants take different times to establish, they are unable to provide estimates of when it may be open. Finally, once open Persimmon will be adding a play area for Children!
