Wishing the residents of Daybrook a joyous Christmas filled with warmth, laughter, and the company of loved ones. May the holiday season bring you peace and happiness. Happy Christmas from both of us. Best wishes, Cllr Kyle Robinson-Payne and Cllr Sandra Barnes. ❤️

Had a wonderful morning at Daybrook Baptist Church, joining Helen Lloyd at the "Kettle's On!" breakfast club. 😊 Delighted to deliver a generous donation from Arnold Branch Labour Party members to Arnold Foodbank, supporting our local community.

Also, had a productive meeting with Arrow PCN Social prescribers at Daybrook Medical Centre, exploring ways to combat social isolation together in 2024. 👥

Always a pleasure to attend Church of the Good Shepherd, Woodthorpe. Thank you for a wonderful festive evening. 🙏

🌟 A great afternoon at St Timothy’s Church and Community Centre Friendship Group for the annual Christmas Party. Thank you to Sue & Bob, Mrs Lamb and Mrs Stevenson for their work all year round to run this lovely group. Also great to catch up with Reverend Jack Bull as always. Myself, Councillor Sandra Barnes & Councillor Michael Payne love to support this Daybrook community group all year round to help tackle social isolation in the local area.

Had an incredible evening at the Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service Awards, honouring the remarkable bravery and commitment of firefighters, staff, and the public. A heartfelt salute to those who dedicate themselves to keeping us all safe. Was lovely to meet Cath who is part of the team working on diversity and inclusion in the service. Was also good to see our local Arnold firefighters getting some recognition for their incredible work. 👏 🚒🏆

*BLACK HISTORY MONTH EVENT IN DAYBROOK*

I'm honoured to be attending and speaking at the Celebrating Black History Month event hosted by the Lighthouse Fellowship Church in Daybrook. As your Gedling Borough Councillor for the Daybrook ward, I understand the importance of celebrating diversity and history. Black History Month is a crucial time to reflect on the rich contributions and achievements of the Black community. I'm looking forward to supporting this event and discussing why Black History Month is so significant. Together, let's celebrate the culture, heritage, and achievements of Black individuals in Nottinghamshire and across the UK.

🚨 👇CRUCIAL FLOODING ADVICE AND SUPPORT👇🚨

So pleased to get this walkway cleaned up in Daybrook.

**DAYBROOK COUNCILLOR OBJECTION TO ERNEHALE LODGE CONVERSION TO 30 ROOM HMO**

I wanted to let residents know that I have formally objected to planning application reference: 2023/0605, regarding the proposed change of use of Ernehale Lodge Nursing Home from a care home to a 30 bedroom house in multiple occupation (HMO). The site just sits within the Redhill ward but the proposed changes will indeed impact on the Daybrook ward and surrounding residents.

➡️Parking in particular at this location is already a concern and with only eight parking places available at Ernehale Lodge, there is definitely not adequate parking to accommodate a 30 bedroom HMO. Nottinghamshire County Council as the Highways Authority will already be aware of the parking challenges at this location. I do hope the County Council has visited this location and properly assessed the surrounding area from a Highways perspective before giving a view.

➡️The application does not adequately address waste management concerns. An increase in residents without proper provisions for waste disposal could result in increased litter and waste-related issues in the vicinity. I’m not convinced by the applicants approach to this.

➡️ The conversion to a HMO will lead to an increase in population density in the area, potentially contributing to anti-social behaviour issues. Without proper safeguards in place, this could have a detrimental effect on the community's safety and well-being. The applicant suggests these things can be managed, but it is not clear how.

➡️Ernehale Lodge Nursing Home is currently registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) for 30 residents with nursing care requirements. The proposed change of use will result in a loss of specialised care facilities for vulnerable members of our community.

I will continue to push for this application to be refused as the proposals are clearly unacceptable for this site.
