 Earlier this month at the Sandyford & Goldenhill Residents Public Meeting, it was confirmed by Councillor Lee Wanger that rumours to close Goldenhill Community Hall/Centre are untrue and the City Council has no plans to close it.
Councillor Wanger, Chair of the Overview & Scrutiny Committee did state that his committee are in the process to make recommendations to the council’s cabinet about savings to keep the community centre viable so it is not in a position to lose money.
Residents agreed that the banner “Save Our Community Centre” needs to go as it is giving the wrong impression when the community centre is confirmed to be staying open. Residents also agreed the venue needs to be promoted more so people are again encouraged to hire the centre.

 A man who was in collision with a car yesterday afternoon was taken to the Royal Stoke Hospital after suffering serious head and chest injuries.
The incident took place near to Goldenhill Community Centre where it has been reported the man was in his early to mid 20’s.
Two air ambulance helicopters were on standby after landing on nearby Ridge Road Park area where residents were taken by surprise after witnessing the situation.
The main High Street between Sandyford and Goldenhill was closed off until late evening where traffic diverted itself between the Broadfield Road estate and the Ridge Road estate.
There has been many reports of speeding vehicles throughout this stretch of road, but an eye witness to the incident has confirmed there were no issues of speeding vehicles at the time of this accident.
 First reports confirm that the gentleman is really poorly, but let’s all keep our fingers crossed that he pulls through the situation okay.

 In the early hours of Monday morning (13.03.17) residents were alerted to more fly tipping in Hollywall Lane, Sandyford by irresponsible people who don’t care where or when they choose to dump their rubbish.
It has been reported that Stoke on Trent City Council immediately closed off the lane when it was realised that asbestos was amongst the fly tipped rubbish. It is believed the council are investigating the situation further to try and establish who is responsible for this unacceptable activity.
Tom Simpson, secretary of Sandyford and Goldenhill Residents’ Association, said: “It is not very good to have this fly-tipping in our area and it has become a real problem. Residents are sick and tired of this ongoing situation happening in our area.
Mr Simpson went onto say, “We hear a lot of complaints about fly-tipping and encourage people to report anything suspicious they see, but when the rubbish is dumped in the evening it is harder to see such activity happening”.
Anyone with information about the fly-tipping should call the council on 01782 234234.
