Donation to Plane Justice

24 September 2020

Councillors met with Plane Justice in December 2020 to receive an update that Gatwick and NATS have made the relevant filings with AIS regarding the denotification of the Route 4 RNAV SIDs (i.e., the cancellation of the current route). Assuming these are processed correctly (and there is no reason why they shouldn’t be), denotification has taken place and is scheduled for implementation on 25 February 2021 so we should see a return to the original (2012) Route 4 navigation route from this date.

This is tremendous news, and follows 4 ½ years of hard work and support from so many people in the community, so thank you to everyone that has contributed to this worthy and just campaign.

2018 Route 4 ACP

Although this Airspace Change Proposal has been on hold for some time, it was confirmed by Gatwick during a Noise Management Board Public Meeting on the 3rd December that this was likely to be continued after the 25th February enabling them to monitor the reverted flight patterns.

Plane Justice and S&SPC will continue to play an active role as a key community stakeholder ensuring fairness in any future decisions regarding the flight patterns of Route 4.

The Parish Council had previously pledged £7,500 to support Plane Justice (having made financial donations to date of £10,000). Council agreed to retain the pledge of £7,500 for these new JR matters and made the donation of £5,000 immediately with the pledge of a further £2,500 if needed. A further £1,000 was paid to Plane Justice in January 2021.

The bulk of Route 4 after the turn is in our parish which is why we support PJs’ efforts and this financial support serves the purpose of getting Route 4 back to the legacy position.

The National Association of Local Councils (NALC), has accredited Salfords and Sidlow Parish Council with the Quality Gold Award. for the Local Council Awards Scheme. We submitted our application in May. Receiving the Quality Gold Award is an excellent achievement showing that our local parish council achieves good practices in governance, community engagement and council improvement. Furthermore, this award shows that our council has gone above and beyond the legal obligations; we lead our community and continuously seek opportunities to improve and develop even further. We are very proud of this achievement and plan to continue to develop and work with our community to obtain the best outcomes for what is wanted in our villages.

The Parish Council is celebrating being in existence for 50 years this year. We have lots of exciting plans to mark this special occasion. We held a celebration fun day jointly with Salfords Social Club on Saturday 29 June. There was performances from live band 'Something Like That', BBQ, Ice cream van, candy floss stall, entertainment for all the family including fairground attractions, bouncy castle, Tug of War, China Smash, Safecracker, Tombola run by Christ the King church, Hit the hammer, and several craft stalls. All our local community groups joined in and showcased what they have to offer or ran a stall. We hosted another event in Sidlow on Sunday 30 June where families were entertained with live bands, BBQ and licensed bar, children games and the obligatory Tug of War. Thanks to all our residents and families who attended. The Parish Council has donated and planted 5 Himalayan Birch Betula Utilis Jacquemontiie trees to Salfords Social club as part of our 50th year. We have also gifted a happy to chat bench to the club. Cllr Caroline Clarke and Claire, the Clerk, attended Salfords Primary School where we provided the school with environmental gifts including bird boxes, bat boxes, bug hotels, hedgehog houses and hedgehog gateways. All the pupils received Rubix cube style gifts as the game was created in 1974. We also provided the school with a Buddy Bench which is currently in their infant area. We will be burying a time capsule so will be asking our community groups and some residents if they would like to donate something to be included to mark where we are in 2024 for someone to find in the future. We held a scarecrow competition and awarded environment gifts to the entrants. We will be gifting roads that have verges with bags of daffodil bulbs so residents can plant them in the Autumn. This would help brighten up our villages and help the local environment and biodiversity. If you would like your road to be included please get in touch
