Keep Calm and Carry On?

A sad situation which has come to light over the last month. It is in relation to a TRO on London Road between St Martin’s Church on London Road and Wych Elm Close on London Road. I heard about this TRO in December last year. I immediately let the Warden of St Martin’s church know as well as the Rev Ken Boyce about the matter as they and their Congregation would be most affected by this. The historic Church and Hall of ST Martin’s is an integral part of our community where many users use the facilities for Worship, community activities such as Fitness activities, Playgroups and meetings, parties as well as the traditional marriage ceremonies, christenings and funerals.

Social Lettings Agency

City’s homeless to get their own lettings agency 8:00am Saturday 23rd June 2012 in News By Tom Edwards A NEW council-owned lettings agency is to be set up in Worcester to find vulnerable people places to live. Under the deal, residents at risk of being homeless can access private sector rental properties to keep them off the streets. The city council’s Conservative cabinet has agreed to formally back the scheme, and are hoping it will help tackle a waiting list 4,000 strong. The agency, which will be run by Worcester Community Housing, will identify landlords who want to rent out unused properties at lower rates.   A report before the cabinet, which recommended it be accepted, stated the private sector market is “closed off” to people unless they have rent in advance, references, a bank account and guarantor. As your Worcester News reported this week, 588 people were declared homeless in the city during the last year, the highest rate since 2005 and a 25 per cent surge since las...
