“Your Say, Your Way” – Decision Day

Want to make your neighbourhood stronger and safer? Would you like to see an improvement

to your local environment or help improve health and well-being for residents? Have you got

ideas for improving services for the whole community?

 

Your Say, Your Way increases opportunities for local people to get involved in local decision making and have a voice about improvements in their neighbourhood.

 Do you live in Barnfield Ward?

Over recent months at local festivals, community meetings, ward forums and

through face-to face surveys, you have given us your views on your area and told

us about improvements you would like to see in your area. The next step is a series

of community decision days to agree priorities for each area with local residents, councillors and service providers.

 Barnfield Decision Day

Saturday 19 November, 10am-1pm

Bushmead Community Centre,

Hancock Drive, LU2 7SF

 Please telephone 01582 422818 to register your attendance       

Purple Poppy Day in Luton Town Centre

A group of Bushmead/Barnfield residents held an Animal Aid stall in the Luton Town centre on Saturday 29th October to sell Purple Poppies to the shoppers and collected nearly £80.

WHAT IS THE PURPLE POPPY FOR?

For people not familiar with Purple Poppies here’s an explanation from Animal Aid:

“While millions of animals have lost their lives in humans’ wars, they are rarely mentioned in remembrance ceremonies. National campaign group Animal Aid aims to rectify this and has this week issued a purple poppy to commemorate the animal victims of war.

Historically, animals have been used as messengers, for detection, scouting and rescue, as beasts of burden and on the frontline. In more recent times, scientists have wired electrodes into the brains of rats to harness their keen sense of smell, and the armed forces have trained dolphins and seals to detect both mines and intruders below the waves.

Says Animal Aid Head of Campaigns, Kate Fowler-Reeves:

‘For years we have commemorated the human victims of war and overlooked the impact that worldwide conflicts have had on animals. Now, it’s time to redress the balance. By wearing a purple poppy – alongside the traditional red one – we will finally be acknowledging that millions of animals have been drafted into conflicts not of their making and have lost their lives as a result. Remembering them is the least we can do.’”
