FUTURE GENERATIONS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Every figure below is measured from the strands above. Every forward-looking line is a question, not a forecast. Development pressure: 0 applications Proposing to build or change something, within 2km in the last 90 days. 0 classed as major, 0 of all types still undecided. 0 further applications concern trees and are not counted here. Green space: Nearby Green space is mapped within 2km, but OpenStreetMap hasn't named it, so it can't be counted here. It still appears in the Nature strand. Places to gather: 1 Community centres, halls, social facilities and places of worship within 2km. The rooms a neighbourhood actually meets in. Learning on the doorstep: 0 schools, 0 libraries 0 education sites within 2km in total, including colleges and universities. Nearest defibrillator: None mapped No defibrillator is recorded within 2km. That may mean there isn't one, or that nobody has registered it yet. Heritage features: 2 Monuments, historic buildings, memorials and museums recorded within 2km. Air quality today: Fair (21) European Air Quality Index, modelled for this location. PM2.5 5.5 µg/m³, NO₂ 1.8 µg/m³. Air quality -> Health Today's reading is fair (21), with nitrogen dioxide, the pollutant most tied to traffic, at 1.8 µg/m³. Air quality is a long-run exposure, not a daily event: what matters for health is the average someone breathes over years, not one good or bad day. Q: Over years rather than days, what would sustained exposure at this level mean for residents with asthma, COPD or heart conditions, and for children whose lungs are still developing? Green space -> Wellbeing Green space (unnamed on the map) and 0 places to be active within 2km, against 1 indoor place to gather. Q: How accessible are these spaces to people of different ages and abilities, and are there barriers that prevent some residents from enjoying them? Places to gather -> Connection 1 hall, centre and place of worship within 2km, nearest St Edward at 50m. Q: If one of these closed, where would the groups that use it go, and would they survive the move? Today's decisions -> Future generations 0 schools, 0 libraries and 2 heritage features within 2km, alongside 0 planning applications still undecided. Q: The children in those schools will inherit whatever is settled this year. What would they thank us for in 2046, and what would they wish we had asked about? ====================================================================== SOURCES AND LIMITS ====================================================================== postcodes.io/ONS (location); PlanIt (planning applications, collected on a delay); OpenStreetMap contributors under ODbL (map features. Only as complete as local volunteers have mapped); data.police.uk (crime, ~2 months behind, anonymised points); Environment Agency (live flood warnings only); Open-Meteo/Copernicus CAMS (modelled air quality); UK Parliament Members API (MP). An empty list means nothing was recorded, not that nothing exists. Anything marked NOT AVAILABLE means the source could not be reached. A different thing again.
