"Redlands NAG
along with other community groups in Reading has been working with the Council
to review the status of conservation areas in Reading, many of which lie in our
NAG area. The Council is being advised by Historic England, part of what was
previously known as English Heritage, to identify what action can be taken to
protect the Conservation Areas. Arising
from this, a workshop has been organised, to train local volunteers in carrying
out appraisals of the conservation areas, so that action needed can be
identified and followed up. The NAG has
been offered a small number of places at this workshop for local residents who
would be willing to get involved.
The workshop is
being held on Wednesday 24th February 2016 and runs from 9-5pm. It is being held in the Mayor’s Parlour in
Reading Civic Offices, Bridge Street.
There is no charge for the event and there will be a follow up half day
event on the morning of 6th April.
If you would be interested to attend or would like
to know more, please contact Peter Kayes, NAG Chair on the email address below
so that these places can be allocated.
The NAG is a group of local volunteers who work
with other locally based organisations including the University, Hospital,
Council and Police for the benefit of and to represent the concerns of local
residents. The NAG covers an area of Reading from the London Road in the north
to Christchurch Road in the South, Wykeham Road in the east to Kendrick Road in
the west, plus the Whiteknights campus of the University of Reading. Also
included in the area are the London Road campus of the University of Reading and
the Royal Berkshire Hospital.
