Electrical Fire Safety Week 2025
Electrical Safety First is a campaigning charity that aims to reduce deaths and injuries caused by electricity in UK homes. We do this by working closely with Government, the electrical industry, manufacturers, retailers and consumer safety organisations to improve safety regulation and standards. The current campaign for Electrical Fire Safety Week 2025 is raising awareness about the fire risks associated with using white goods.
Do Cottered and Throcking have any important views that need protecting?
The council is looking to establish whether there are any ‘views’ within the parish which should be featured in the neighbourhood plan as ‘protected views’. The Buntingford Community Area Neighbourhood Plan can be viewed here:
Examples of ‘protected views’ are shown on pages 70-71 and are identified as important in retaining the particular characteristics of an area.
This will be discussed in the next meeting as to whether this warrants the start of a larger process to include identified ‘views’ in the neighbourhood plan.
If you have any suggestions of views that would be important to retain for the future, please send an image and location to: .
