Our Aging Community here in B JÂ
The Nations politicians are at last becoming aware of their need to consider with some haste the perpetual situation of our nation’s aging  population . Â
Here in B J we already have more than 50% of our  community  “over 50”, yet there is an absence of our Parish Council also acknowledging this situation locally.  Surely the least the Parish Council could have already considered  is  the appointment of  a nominated councillor as the dedicated Liaison Councillor for the Over 50’s. Particularly as they have already considered and  nominated  Cllr Johnson as the Liaison Councillor for – the children of B J Primary SchoolWhat will a Liaison Councillor for the Over 50’s contribute to the ongoing and future of this particular age group. Well to begin with the Parish Council will become aware ( not more aware for a quick glance at the past  BJPC Minutes reveal  they do not appear to discuss or consider this sector of our community at all, other than the limited number of summer Flat Green Bowlers at the Poplars)
Yes, here in BJ we have many groups which have organised and administered by the “Over 50’s” themselves  and seek little or no help from the Parish Council  - (“Hand-outs/grants/ donations  do not appear to be in the vocabulary of this particular age groups ) . Yet contributions towards  venue costs  would I’m sure appreciated –
How about it all you Parish Councillors ?  This is  not too much to consider, surely
