Starting on Tuesday 14th May, residents are encouraged to come along to the library and join a poetry group, which is being run by local volunteer Lesley Marsh. This is a new group, which will meet from 3pm to 4pm on Tuesday 14th May, with further meetings planned on 9th July and 10th September. I hope to shortly give details of a Craft Club, as well as a Conversational Spanish class which will also be starting at the library on Tuesday afternoons. Whilst the library is being run by volunteers on a Tuesday afternoon, under the auspices of the Parish Council, we have the freedom and flexibility to arrange a variety of different activities. If anyone has any further ideas for activities they would like to run, please do get in touch.

COMMUNITY SPEEDWATCH - WILMSLOW ROAD
On Thursday 11th April I joined local residents and volunteers from our Community Speedwatch team on Wilmslow Road (near to Harden Park). On this occasion, we were also joined by our PCSO, Anna Jenkinson. During the course of one hour (11am- 12noon) we recorded no fewer than 59 vehicles exceeding the speed threshold, with an average speed of 38mph. The results in full were:- 46 vehicles exceeding the speed threshold, but under 40mph
- 13 vehicles exceeding the speed threshold, above 40mph
- highest recorded speed was 48mph
- the speed limit at this location is 30mph
The figures show that there is still a clear need for increased awareness at this location. To that end, we will shortly be getting some red-coloured textured road surfacing on Wilmslow Road, as well as some "30" roundels marked on the road surface. Also, once the development of the County Hotel is complete, a pedestrian island will be installed close to the junction with Harden Park.
