Blandford Area Development Trust

Blandford Area Development Trust
Invitation to a Public Meeting Blandford Parish Centre
Friday 02 June 2017, 19:00 – 20:30

Community and civic groups, local government and business representatives are invited to attend a public meeting to be held in the Blandford Parish Centre (as above). The meeting will provide an update on progress so far and enable those attending to contribute to the formation of the Blandford Area Development Trust.

The trust would take the recently closed DT11 Forum Community Partnership onto the next level by providing a representative and independent focus to attract investment and grant funding into the Blandford area (the DT11 postcode). The trusts objectives will include support for businesses, training, start-up funding and young people, projects to promote the town and the DT11 area, and collaboration with and support for community, civic and leisure group actives and local government community initiatives.  Significantly, it will also aim to provide an essential bridge between re-organised local government and the Blandford area community.

Please come along to contribute to the discussion and register your support.

RSVP to nicnicolnms@aol.com if you are attending.

Power cut? New phone number 105 launches in September

On 6th September a new national phone number “105” will be launched by electricity network operators for customers to call should you need to report or get information about a power cut in your area.

Key points to note about this service are:

Dialling 105 will put you through to your local electricity network operator – the company that manages the cables, power lines and substations that deliver electricity into homes and businesses in your area.

105 is just one of the ways that you can contact your electricity network operator. You can also contact them by phone or via their website, and most network operators are on social media too.

105 is a free service for people in England, Scotland and Wales. You call 105 no matter who you choose to buy electricity from.

You can also call 105 if you spot damage to electricity power lines and substations that could put anyone in danger. If there’s a serious immediate risk, you should call the emergency services too.
