social prescribing and allotments on #InsideHealth this evening @BBCRadio4 with @drmarkporter

[Martin Clarke @MartinClarke_]

Why are some doctors prescribing music ? Listen here to national social prescribing expert Dr Simon Opher - GP in Dursley and Chair of Prema arts centre. If Dursley can do it, why not Wotton ?

@alisonstenning @katrinanavickas @SaveFarmTerrace @SaveNFAllotment Love the project but Coombe Allotments was never a public space legally. It was privately owned since the Berkeley Estate sold it on. Gardened as allotments for centuries but with no legal protection. Now safe and green, locally owned. Developers thwarted.

Planning permission refused for two houses that would have destroyed the Holywell Holy Well and ruined the hamlet.
Well done everyone .

[Cllr Catherine Braun @Cath_Braun]

Archaelogy & the historic environment of Holywell, must be considered in this application - as well as the beautiful landscape, within the @CotswoldsAONB #SaveHolywell

3/3 This development will do nothing to address local housing need while destroying the green space at the centre of Holywell which has existed, at least, since the end of the 19th century. full details at https://t.co/2CJPSiy3IK using ref. S.18/2663/FUL

[Coombe Valley Preservation Group @SaveHolywell]

2/3 it appears that these properties will dominate the area particularly in relation to the small cottages on the north side of the proposed development. it also looks like the historical well,which gives the hamlet it's name, will be covered over.

[Coombe Valley Preservation Group @SaveHolywell]

1/3 We now face a threat to the Holywell and the green triangle of allotments. A planning application has been made to build on the green area at the centre of Holywell. The proposal is for two large 4 bedroom 'aspirational dwellings' with garages.
