All change as flexible payment machines arrive in town centre car parks

 

Mid Sussex District Council is giving you the choice to pay for parking by card, cash or phone in Burgess Hill, East Grinstead and Haywards Heath town centre car parks.

New payment machines will help make parking as quick and simple as possible by enabling you to pay for parking with your bank card or by calling, texting or using an app on your mobile phone.

You can still pay for parking with cash in the conventional way but mobile payment is being introduced alongside cash payments as a handy alternative.

The MiPermit app is a quick, easy-to-use mobile phone service that allows you to pay for parking electronically, rather than with cash at a machine. By using the app you will not even have to visit the ticket machine and you can request a text message reminder when your parking is about to expire.

Councillor Marsh, Cabinet Member for Service Delivery said, “This is a progressive step for our well-used town centre car parks and an end to the frustration of not having the right change at the right time.

“The app also offers the option to extend your parking without returning to your vehicle, which is great when you find you need more time in town.”

The new machines are expected to be installed in time for the summer holidays.

Poynings Table Tennis

Dear all,

Five of us representing Fulking had great fun and some brilliant games on the outdoor table at Poynings on a warm, sunny evening on 8 June. But where were you folks from Poynings?  I’m afraid in your absence Fulking chalked up a victory, but it’s not too late to save your honour. We have two new games dates in the diary, on Fridays 29 June and 20 July.

 

If the weather is fine we will meet in the playing field at Poynings — the outdoor table is great, though the surface takes a bit of getting used to! We felt the base was perfectly safe, but as before, everyone will take part at their own risk. NB If the weather is bad on 29 June we will meet in Fulking village hall. On 20 July if the weather is poor we will meet in POYNINGS village hall, as Fulking hall is already booked. I think Mike has volunteered to get the key. But hopefully the sun will shine and both these summer dates can be enjoyed outdoors. Bring other outdoor games if you like!

 

Ring Jen 552 or email jengreenuk@yahoo.co.uk with any queries e.g. about the weather on the day.

West Sussex Parents & Carers

The Community Safety & Wellbeing Team (CSWB) is asking West Sussex Parents & Carers for their views & experiences in relation to keeping their children safe online.

We are looking to establish what parents & carers main concerns are when parenting in the digital age and what challenges they have faced. We want to understand how confident parents & carers are when dealing with these issues and if they know where to go for help, advice & support.

We want to know about the types of resources parents utilise, are aware of and have available to them, as well as the resources they really value in helping them to better support their young people.

The aim of the survey is to assist us in identifying if any further resources may need to be developed, or to raise awareness of existing resources and how we can better support parents and carers in this area.

We will be running the online survey to try and capture parents & carers views across the County and are encouraging as many people as possible to take part.

Please could you promote via your platforms and encourage those within your networks to complete the survey to help us obtain as many responses as possible.

 

Respondents can click here to take part or use this link: https://haveyoursay.westsussex.gov.uk/communities-public-protection/parent-online-safety

 

The survey will close on the 8th of July 2018.

 

Kind regards

 

Francesca Blow, Lead for Safe Digital Life,

Community Safety & Wellbeing Team
