Air Quality Strategy 2025 - 2030

From: Executive - Monday, 1st September, 2025 6.00 pm - September 01, 2025

To approve the Air Quality Strategy 2025 – 2030 for adoption.   Air pollution can have a serious effect on people’s health.  The Environment Act 2021 requires all local authorities to have either an active Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP), if the authority has declared an Air Quality Management Area, or to produce an Air Quality Strategy.   In 2024, Fareham revoked both of its AQMAs and is therefore no longer required to have an AQAP.  As such, an Air Quality Strategy is required.  The new Strategy has been produced in accordance with legislation and guidance.   The Executive approved a 12-week public consultation on the draft Strategy at its meeting of 3 February 2025.  This consultation took place between 19 May 2025 and 8 August 2025.   The final Air Quality Strategy is presented for adoption.

Community Fund Application - 4th Portchester Rainbows

From: Executive Portfolio for Leisure and Community - Thursday, 7th August, 2025 10.00 am - August 07, 2025

This report presents an application for funding under the Council’s Community Funding Programme.     An application to the Community Fund has been received from 4th Portchester Rainbows for £2,000 towards the purchase of a silent disco starter set.   4th Portchester Rainbows would like to purchase a silent disco starter set after their positive experience of hiring a unit at a recent girl guiding event and seeing the benefits to their members for this equipment. The equipment would be used within the local Guides groups for fundraising, as well as hiring it out when not in use for a small charge within the Fareham and Titchfield divisions which in total has 634 child members. They will also hire out the equipment to the Scout groups in the area who have similar member numbers as well as local schools. The money generated from hire would fund replacement headsets and possibly further set ups depending on its popularity, allowing this project to be sustainable.   The silent discos can provide potential fundraising for Guide and Scout groups as well as school PTAs. 4th Portchester Rainbows would store the equipment safely at the Guide Leaders home providing secure, dry storage and allowing better accessibility for hirers. There will be a hire agreement in place to cover terms and conditions such as damages. This will also stipulate that the equipment can only be used for not-for-profit organisations and benefit the youth of Fareham Borough.   The total cost of this project is £2,233.97. 4th Portchester Rainbows are looking for £2,000 from the Community Fund, with the remaining amount of £233.97 being funded from their reserves.   As of 11 July 2025, 4th Portchester Rainbows held £1,300 in their accounts which includes a ringfenced £935 for their annual subscription to HQ due in February. In the current accounting year September 2024-August 2025 there so far is an income of £2,381 and expenditure of £1,853.96.   Both Ward Councillors, Councillor Bainbridge and Cllr D Wiltshire supports the 4th Portchester Rainbows application.
