Dear Readers
Inside this Month’s
Welcome to the
issue
September issue of In and Around Iver Wow! How quickly did those school summer holidays go? And true to form, the weather in August has been awful! Flip flops replaced with wellies and t-shirts with waterproof coats. No doubt, if previous years are anything to go by, the sun will return as soon as the kids go back and we’ll be digging out the summer clothes for another couple of weeks before finally packing them away for Winter. I’ve taken a chance this year and booked a week’s holiday right at the end of the month. Fingers crossed I haven’t left it too late for there to be any sunshine left in Portugal. I’m dreaming of sleeping all day on a sun lounger and recharging my batteries after what seems to have been a long, busy old stretch of constant work. These little magazines certainly keep us busy, but after over ten years of publishing them, it’s hard to remember what a 9 to 5 job was like. Speaking of jobs, if you’re looking for a new one, don’t forget to check out our Situations Vacant page at the back of the magazine. And, if you have a job that you would like to advertise, please let us know. Just £50 puts your recruitment advert into all six publications (that’s over 30,000 homes). Until next month! M. Angela

RSPCA Hillingdon, Slough, Windsor, Kingston & District Branch Registered Charity No: 263515
Abandoned Puppies The RSPCA Hillingdon, Slough, Windsor, Kingston, found abandoned and in a dreadful state these tiny puppies. They have responded well to our veterinary care, their hair is growing nicely and we guess they are terrier / Chihuahua cross breeds. There are 2 boys and one girl and we are now looking for caring forever homes with older children. If you are interested please contact us for more information. Still amidst our cat and kitten crisis we desperately need animal bedding, cat and KITTEN food and of course money for veterinary care and kennel fees. .
MISSY 3 YEARS – FEMALE WHITE & BLACK Pretty Missy came into our care due to her previous owner’s health issues. She has a delightfully playful nature and is also extremely affectionate. Missy would be a lovely family cat (though probably wouldn’t appreciate living with dogs) and has lots of love to offer in return for a caring home for life M and a comfy lap to snooze on! Can you offer Missy the love and life she deserves? 22

BUBBLES 6-7 YEARS – FEMALE B ROW N & W HITE SPRINGER SPANIEL Sadly Bubbles is back with us for re-homing after things didn’t work out between her and the other dog she went to live with. After so many upheavals in her life, Bubbles wants the chance to feel secure, loved and wanted without feeling the need to compete for attention. She is a sweet girl, who loves a fuss, her walks and most of all playing with her ball. We want an active local home for Bubbles, where someone is around most of the day and with no other dogs or pets and no children under 16 years of age. If you can offer all this and lots of fun and love for our special girl, please get in touch. Thank you for your support @. We can’t do it without you! If you think you can offer one of our animals a loving home then please ring RSPCA Hillingdon Branch on 01895 833417 or visit our website www.rspcahillingdonclinic.org.uk to download an application form and view some of the animals that are looking for forever homes. 59

Richings Park Residents Association Committee including Thorney Community Forum
HS2/Heathrow Express depot
We have a new information and communication forum Richings Park Today http://richingspark.today/ which we hope will be a source of information, networking and support and allow you to have a voice. Please join and get involved. All the information we have about local issues will be on the forum or our website.
We have now formally lodged our objections to this depot and the impact it have. The 500 additional HGVs per day during construction on our roads, the 24 hour working, the noise, air and light pollution that we will suffer are all totally unacceptable and we will do our utmost to ensure that if we do have this depot foisted upon us we get a relief road built.
Heathrow 3rd runway Heathrow Airport Ltd have agreed to come to talk to us about their plans for the new runway and its potential impact on us as a community. The new runway will be located at the end of Old Slade Lane, just the other side of the M4. It will therefore have a huge impact on our area in terms of noise, air pollution, additional traffic congestion including HGV traffic etc. We will be right underneath one of the new flight paths! Then of course there will be other knock on effects such as the widening of the M4 and M25, the relocation of the Grundon incinerator and the river Colne – all coming our way.

The next Committee meeting is at 8pm on Wednesday 23rd September at Richings Park Sports Club – all residents are welcome to join us for the first 15 minutes to alert us to any concerns they may have.
We want to know what Heathrow plan to do regarding measures to mitigate against the impacts on our area and what compensation they are proposing to offer us as so far we have been excluded from their schemes. The meeting will be on Thursday 24th September at 7.30pm at the Tower Arms.
