BRINGING SUPERFAST BROADBAND TO OUR RURAL AREAS
Warwickshire County Council is leading on the project to improve the broadband across the sub-region and we need your help. Clearly the money available from public funds will not be sufficient to solve the problem for the whole sub-region, and so telecoms providers who tender for the work will be expected to make their own investment of at least twice the amount that is available from public funds.
They will not be doing this out of the goodness of their heart, and so are likely to prioritise those areas that are able to show the greatest demand.
What can you do to help?
Complete our survey
If you have not already done so please complete the broadband survey that is located at http://www.cswbroadband.org.uk/ - there is one survey for domestic use and one for business use, so if you run a business or work from home please do both – and encourage your neighbours to do it as well because the more people that respond from a given area the higher priority it will be.
Your assistance could make all the difference to your village getting superfast broadband!

Nuisance from Uncontrolled Dogs - Message from Sophie Peacock, Animal Welfare Officer, Dog Warden Service.
There has been an increase in dog on dog attacks across the Stratford-on-Avon District as well as dog fouling.
As a resonsible dog owner, you are required to keep dogs under proper control and that you are responsible for any damage they may cause to people, livestock, pets or property. Dog owners and walkers need to be aware of the consequences they face if their dog attacks another dog.
The owners of uncontrolled dogs will be issued with warning notices if it continues as long as it can be backed by evidence.
The District Council has adopted the provisions of the Fouling of Land by Dogs (District of Stratford-on-Avon) Order 2009. This means that if you are a dog owner or walker and you allow the dog to foul on any land which the public have access to you are responsible for cleaning it up. If you fail to clean it up, then you are committing an offence for which you may receive a fixed penalty Notice of £75.00. You may receive a higher fine if you refuse to pay the fine and are taken to the Magistrates' Court.
The Distrct and Parish Councils take dog fouling very seriously and would like to advise you that if you are caught allowing your dog foul in any space which is open to the public within the District you will be issued with a Fixed Penalty Notice.
To all responsible dog owners who do pick up and keep their dogs under control, thank you for keeping our towns and villages a cleaner and happier place to live. Dog foul, when bagged can be placed in a dog bin or any litter bin.
