Hi All,
Just to let you know that we will be around to collect your jubilee ticket requests as soon as we can. Unfortunately a couple of the committee have covid so are unable to get out to pick them up at the moment.
If you want to drop your ticket request around then you can pop it round to myself (Sara at Common Farm, Gale Carr Lane) or any of the committee members.
Thanks
The Jubilee Commitee
Sara R, Val N, Alex Q, Tony B and Helen M
Please see below the proposed outline of the afternoon and evening of our village Jubilee Celebrations. It will be very similar to 10 years ago.
I know some of you have already emailed to say you would like to come, so thank you for that. We now have more details of food and entertainment so members of the committee will be bringing this invite around and then will collect it back in with numbers wishing to attend.
We have been asked about bringing family and friends who are not in the village. This will be dependent on numbers of Bielby residents attending. Last time we were able to have our family and friends with us. In fact nearly 150 of us attended last time!
On the ticket request form if you would like extended family/friends to come, if you can put in the numbers you would like to attend, then when we have all the invites back we can confirm your requests.
All Bielby residents are invited and welcome to attend. It will just be the non resident numbers that we have to confirm.
If you have any questions just give me a call on 01759 318286.
Thanks.
Sara
Below is a copy of the invite ticket request leaflet that will be delivered to your door!

Parish Charter.
Councils such as the East Riding of Yorkshire Council have the power to carry out community governance reviews in their area. Community governance reviews consider whether parish councils in the area should be created, dissolved or altered (this can be in relation to the boundaries of a parish, the number of councillors on a parish or the name of the parish ).
The timing of community governance reviews and the area covered by them is a matter for the council carrying out the review. We are proposing to carry out a review of the entire area in order to consider whether any changes are required to any of the parishes in the area. This will take into account , amongst other things , development that has taken place over previous years that may mean that the boundaries of some parishes need to be reconsidered.
In relation to parishes in the area a community governance review can make a number of recommendations relating to:
a) Whether new parishes should be constituted
b) Whether the areas of existing parishes should be altered (whether the boundaries of existing parishes should be changed) or whether existing parishes should be abolished
c) Whether any changes should be made to electoral arrangements in parishes (this includes the number of seats on a parish council or the boundaries of wards in those parishes that are warded). Reviews, however, cannot be used to arbitrarily reduce the numbers of seats on a parish council because of long-standing vacant seats. It is important the size of a parish council reflects proper representation of the community it represents, notwithstanding any challenges the parish council faces in filling vacant seats.
d) Whether parishes should be grouped under a joint council or an existing grouping arrangement should be dissolved.
They are now contacting you to ask on a preliminary basis whether your parish council is aware of any issues that it wishes to be considered as part of such a review. I will put this on the next meeting agenda, Date TBC, but if anyone has any views on this, we can discuss it then.
We have been notified by ERYC that the walkabout by the council Village taskforce team is being re-instated and is due on Weds 3rd August 2022. The basic tasks which can be undertaken by the village taskforce teams include: minor pothole repairs, street asset painting, sign repair and washing, and the cutting back of overgrown vegetation.You don't have to wait for this, ERYC prefer a direct reporting of problems via their links here;Road and footpath maintenance
Road signs and markings
Maintenance of public rights of way
Pocklington Town Council is running a public consultation on the draft of its Neighbourhood Plan from Saturday 12th March to midnight 1st May. The consultation is being run under Regulation 14 of the Neighbourhood Planning regulations.
The two documents being consulted on are the Neighbourhood Plan itself and its associated Design Code for the town. These and other documents relating to the Neighbourhood Plan are available on the Pocklington Town Council website
If anyone has any comments, please forward them to me, and Ill pass them on to the Council. bielbypmsecretary@gmail.com
A chance to tell East Riding of Yorkshire Council about your current home and what the future need for housing might be in your household. Your views as a resident of East Riding are important to us and the information you provide will help us to build a comprehensive picture of the need for homes in our area and help us to ensure we meet the needs of our diverse communities.
The East Riding Housing Needs Survey will allow us to capture a high quality and realistic view of the pressures which our residents might be facing in relation to housing – either for themselves or members of their household. You may have concerns about whether you would be able to afford a new home or you may live in a home that’s too large or small for your needs. It may be that you have a family member who wants to move out and start living by themselves but hasn’t yet been able to do so. Equally, you may be happy in your current home but we would still like to hear from you.
The information we gather from this survey will feed into a project which will allow the Council to establish the level of housing need in our area as well as what type of need there is. The evidence will support policies to be set out in the East Riding Local Plan which is currently being updated and will provide valuable evidence when planning applications are reviewed with reference to the type, tenure and general mix of a housing development.
The survey can be accessed by the weblink www.tinyurl.com/22HNSS. The time taken will depend on your individual household circumstances, but we suggest the average will be 7 – 10 minutes. Responses will be anonymous, but we do ask for data about where you currently live to help us to see where the need for homes is.
The survey will be open until 22 April 2022.
Message from Jonathan Evison, Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside;
Last year the Government relaunched the Community Payback scheme (previously known as Community service), where offenders work on projects to pay back the community for their crimes. The unpaid work is supervised and is usually tough and physical so it acts as a visible punishment.
Recent projects have included things like removing graffiti, clearing wasteland, maintenance and decoration of community centres, cemeteries, parks etc, but there are many possibilities.
The Probation Service needs to expand the number of projects available, and as Covid
restrictions on operations are eased it should also be able to be more flexible in the types of project and locations that can be supported.
I want to make sure that we make the most of this opportunity in our area, so that our residents feel the benefits of the scheme and can see that people are paying for their crimes.
In line with my Police and Crime Plan, I am particularly keen for Community Payback to support the safety and improvement of public spaces, and the upkeep of community assets. This includes things like cutting back overgrown vegetation that interferes with street lighting or makes it difficult to pass, as well as maintaining community buildings, playing fields and playgrounds so they are more attractive to be used.
To do this I need your help to put forward projects to the Probation Service that would benefit your residents. Nominating a project is quick and straightforward, so it is well worth submittingideas to see if they would be suitable. Details are available at: https://www.gov.uk/nominate-community-payback-project.I hope we will see many more creative ideas coming forward from across our area. I would be interested to hear your feedback and look forward to seeing the results.
Message from Sara.... Thanks again to everyone who has donated so far. Donations to date have gone to Melbourne school to be shipped on Saturday or are going to YPC in Pocklington today to be shipped at the weekend.
Message from Debbie.... the Pocklington Rugby in the community charity (PRITC) was hoping to collect donations on Wednesday and Thursday next week, however transport is already full so the collection won't be going ahead.
