West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service launch their public consultation:

West Sussex Fire & Rescue Service has today launched a public consultation on its proposals for its next Community Risk Management Plan. This plan will set out the direction of the fire service for the next four years.

The service is keen to hear from as many people as possible on its proposals, and so residents are invited to take the time to review the public consultation and share your thoughts.

The consultation comes after the service ran a community questionnaire last year in which it asked residents to highlight the areas of risk within their communities that concerned them the most. Many took the time to complete this questionnaire and the Fire Service are incredibly grateful for all of the valuable insight shared. This has helped them prepare this set of proposals based on previous feedback.

The consultation can be completed online, or by filling out a paper copy of the consultation. IIf you would like a paper copy, please either email yourfireservice@westsussex.gov.uk or 01243 786211 and one will be sent out.

Please sign the Storrington Traffic Group’s petition

Horsham Trafalgar Neighbourhood Council have been approached by Claudia Fisher, Horsham District councillor, to help tackle traffic matters in Storrington & Washington.

Storrington is a village where over 6 million vehicles pass through each year, and 40% of them speed. This traffic is affecting local resident’s health, safety and quality of life

A group of local residents have set up the non-political Storrington Traffic Group, a community voice. After a year of exploring every option, they believe a 20mph speed limit is the simplest, most cost effective way to cut pollution, reduce harm to people and wildlife, and ease traffic. They now need to show that there is public backing for the initiative.

Please sign the Storrington Traffic Group’s petition today to support a 20mph limit in Storrington and Cowfold – the two villages not only with the worst air quality in Horsham District but in the whole of West Sussex.  Anyone who lives, works or studies in West Sussex can sign.

It’s not just about slowing drivers down – it’s about reducing through-traffic and making our streets safer, quieter, and healthier for everyone. Google Maps and sat navs at times will send drivers elsewhere if the journey takes just a bit longer.

The group already have nearly 750 online signatures and many more on paper – but need more to show clear community support.

Signing will help make Storrington and Cowfold better places to live – not just for now, but for the next generations.

Thank you,

PS: The petition closes at midnight on Sunday 6 July so don’t delay.
