ROBIN HOOD RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION Points of Meeting held on Thursday, 13 November 2014
Guest Speaker – Wendy Doyle, Manager of the Rothwell Food Bank. Addressed the meeting to advise that the Leeds South and East Food Banks are now operational every Thursday 10.00am to 12 noon. The nearest location for the residents of Robin Hood is: John O’Gaunts Community Centre, Temple Lawn – just off 3rd Avenue. This is available for people in financial hardship, not just for those receiving Benefits. This is referral only and for further information contact: South Leeds Food Bank. Tel: 07580 873170 or 07521 359823. There is a criteria that must be met. It is expected that there will be a greater influx during the Winter months. They are trying to get information into all Children’s Primary Schools, One-Stop Centres and Doctors’ Surgeries, who will then have vouchers with details. All food is donated and non-perishable goods only. CRIME
PC Claire Rowlinson gave the following statistics in relation to crime: There were no burglaries to housing during this period which was a welcomed statement to all Members present. There were six offences: One shed broken into via broken window. Three vehicle offences. One a theft, a theft from fuel tank, and theft of motor vehicle. Three assaults, two domestic related and one an unknown suspect. Claire confirmed the dog costume will be available for the Christmas Event. The following were confirmed for the next period. Community Garden/Orchard leading up to the Christmas Event. One Stop Shop parking on Leadwell Lane. Gangs outside One Stop Shop, Leadwell Lane. JULIE HOLMES – TENANT INVOLVEMENT OFFICER Asked for information regarding the tree in the Community Orchard. She was informed the hole had been put there, but we are still awaiting the tree. Noticeboard would be ordered tomorrow and this must be sited on Council land. Discussions regarding location to take place with Committee. Update on restrictions to staff at Rothwell. There were interviews taking place today for a new Housing Manager who should be in place within two weeks. In the meantime, Kevin Bruce, Area Manager, will be overseeing this post. New Housing Officer has been appointed, name will be forthcoming. It is hoped the new Officer will attend the meeting in January. The Housing Advisory Panel has £27,000 still available in the budget and are asking for applications from Groups. Health and Wellbeing Packs will be made available to the Association to be distributed to residents who meet the criteria. Crime Prevention Packs. Up to date Packs will be brought to the Association in the near future. COPLEY LANE – TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT KR addressed the meeting and stated that she had asked Highways in August to attend this meeting for consultation before the trials began. The Highways stated that they would only come after the trials. KR emailed the Highways following the recent trials and was informed that neither Officer was available to attend a meeting. A further phone call was made today at 4.00pm and KR was informed that the Officers left at 3.30pm to do site visits and that the Officers would have difficulty to attend evening meetings. There followed a general discussions where Members aired their views and KR stated she would set up a site visit and inform the Committee of the date and time. It was agreed that this would not be a free-for-all and selected delegates would attend. COUNCIL MATTERS A Member asked what was to be done regarding the land at the bottom of Leadwell Lane. Suggestions were put forward that this could become parking for the residents or a park extension. The Member pointed out that this could be a problem as it was very difficult to contact Planning. KR agreed to chase this up with the relevant bodies. KR pointed out that there was a Council Meeting last Monday, where the Local Framework was agreed. This is the new 15 year plan. Booklets which have been updated from the previous ones issued will be distributed as soon as they are available. ROBIN HOOD IN BLOOM DM informed the meeting that the new planters had now been installed and were planted up. It was hoped that when the weather improves, the Orchard will be opened at selected times to allow residents entry. The Committee would like to thank all residents for their attendance at the meetings throughout the year. We would like to wish all residents a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year. If you want to have your say about what happens in your community, you are welcome at the next meeting. The next meeting will be held on Thursday, 8 January 2015 at 7.00pm Venue: Northfield Community Centre, Northfield Place, Off Leadwell Lane, Robin Hood, Wakefield. Denis Manning Secretary

We are a group of Local Tradesmen with a vast amount of experience between us, who have worked alongside each other over many years on various projects. It’s because of our individual beliefs in quality of work & commitment to our customers (and lack of these beliefs in some of the cowboys we’ve worked with in the past) that we decided to join forces and become a ‘One Call Does it All’ company. Whatever building work you need doing, with the Rothwell Tradesmen you will only have one person to deal with from the start through to completion. Below is a list of some of our services but if you need a job doing that’s not listed then please give us a call.

ROBIN HOOD ATHLETIC AFC NEWS‌
CLUB SPONSORS Hello everyone Club Insure Robin Hood went 2 goals behind early on against Leeds City due to Taylor Wimpey a penalty and then a defensive mix up, and that was enough for King St. Solicitors Leeds City to take the points as otherwise it was a close game with C+D Groundworks few chances. Hood welcomed new signing Simon Poole into the midfield alongside the returning from injury Kris Robertshaw. Hood seemed short of ideas in the final third of the field, and in combination with a good performance from the Leeds keeper meant they failed to find the net. W.Yorks Premier Pld Pts RECENT RESULTS 1 Field 14 37 It was Challenge Cup day next and Hood Robin Hood Ath 0-2 Leeds City 2 Bardsey 15 29 Robin Hood Ath 4-0 Kirk Deighton R were just a bit too strong for Kirk Deighton 3 Oxenhope 12 25 Within minutes Hood were ahead, Rangers.

Soon after, a corner and the 6 Horbury T 13 22 12 19 Saturdays 2:00pm. The Coach & Horses. returning Jonny Downey scored a trademark 7 Hunslet 13 19 Come and support your local team! goal. Simon Poole was at the heart of Hood's 8 Robin H 11 16 Covered terracing and refreshments too. midfield and after a delightful interchange with 9 Shelley 10 Knaresboro 12 15 Visit: . www.robin-hood.co.nr . Graham Marchant finished superbly. Then 11 Otley Town 14 15 12 14 when Tino Chibharo finished off a superb fast flowing move with a delightful lob it was 12 Wetherby 4-0 and game over. Second half Hood eased off a bit and gave some game time to 13 Brighouse 11 14 14 Bor'bridge 15 9 some of the promising younger players, but safely through to the next round. 15 Ripon City 12 4 Hood had their first draw of the season against Hunslet, but after being 2-0 ahead with 16 E End Park 13 3 7 minutes left, it felt like a defeat! To be fair, Hunslet shaded the 1st half but it was Hood who led at half time through Graham Marchant. Scott Murgatroyd doubled Hood's lead after the break following great work by Tino Chibharo and Hood looked in control. But an injury to anchorman Paul Arkle changed the game with 15 minutes to go and from then on Hunslet dominated and Hood couldn't quite see the game out. Disappointing, but probably a fair result in the end. The 4-1 win at Otley Town was a good win for Hood, who are getting players back from injury and looking stronger. They dominated most of the game except a 15 minute spell at the start of the 2nd half when Otley got their goal. Hood were 2-0 ahead by the break, thanks to Graham Marchant at the back post and Tino Chibharo beating the offside trap, and good value for their lead. And after their 15 minute 'wobble', took control again and scored two more - firstly Paul Arkle finding the top corner of the net then Scott Murgatroyd turning in Tino's cross for the fourth, and it could have been more. PHOTO: Scott Murgatroyd wins in the air, watched by Tino Chibharo (right) Cup time again, this time the League Cup and a tough looking tie away at Shelley. A game of two halves, this one. Hood didn't turn up in the 1st half and it was only last ditch defending and poor finishing that kept Shelley's score down to a single goal, Half time saw a change in formation and a season debut for James Finlayson back to fitness after an 8 month break. And within four minutes he had equalised! Hood were a different team now and dominated. Winger Scott Burns scored the second and then Scott Murgatroyd scored a sensational individual third and Shelley knew they were beaten. Danny Chadwick added the fourth late on and the only criticism was of the referee who gave Hood 6 bookings, most of which were rather harsh. So finally a Merry Christmas to everyone from your local team, Robin Hood Athletic.

Bonfire Night Bonfire Night in Springhead Park, organized by Leeds City Parks and supported by Rothwell District Lions, went off with a bang. The weather was fine, the bonfire hot and the fireworks spectacular. We sold nearly all our light ups and the collection raised over £1000. All the profits from the sale of the light ups will go to local and national good causes, we don’t take a penny out for administration costs. The collection will help to fund the fireworks for next year so a big thank you to everyone who contributed. Santa Sleigh Santa’s Sleigh is having its annual service before being put in to action. From December 1st Rothwell District Lions will be helping Santa get around our area to give children of all ages the chance to meet him. We are busy planning a schedule, which will be available on our website, Facebook and Twitter pages. Santa has asked us to remind everyone that the schedule could change due to bad weather, breakdowns and other circumstances so we will post updates.
