Executive Leader's Announcements Minutes: D-Day 75 Update
The Executive Leader announced that tickets for the D-Day 75 event planned for Saturday 08 and Sunday 09 June went on sale on Monday 25 March, at Ferneham Hall, online and at the Control Tower at Solent Airport, sparking a surge of interest, with queues at both locations, and on Ferneham Hall telephone lines.
To date, 2909 tickets have been sold, which equates to footfall of 5078 people over the two days, due to some tickets being purchased as weekend tickets covering both days.
Visitors can expect a static aircraft display, flying aircraft, a commemorative plaque unveiling, children’s activities, fun fair rides, stage and arena performances, food stalls, gift and community stalls and a vintage car display.
A number of headline acts for the weekend have been secured including the Great War Display Team, Round Canopy Display Team, Team Green Rockets children’s motorcycle display team, Spitfire, Mustang and the World’s only wing walker display team, the AeroSuperBatics, with more to be announced in the coming weeks.
Promotional material has been widely distributed and well received, and the event has also attracted sponsorship interest.

Minute 9 – Changes to the County Council Funded Social Inclusion Services in Fareham
The Panel received a report by the Managing Director of Fareham Housing which sets out the findings of the County’s ‘Transformation to 2019 Review’, the implications to provision of Social Inclusion services in Fareham, and work being undertaken by Fareham Borough Council to reduce homelessness and rough sleeping in the Borough.
On considering the report, Members raised a number of questions and made comments for clarification which included the changes to the level of floating support as a result of the reduction in County funding.
The Head of Housing and Benefits outlined the successful bid made to the Minister for Housing, Communities and Local Government. The funding will be used to improve access to private rented accommodation.
Members enquired whether there was anything they could do to assist officers with the provision that is made for rough sleepers. The Head of Housing & Benefits referred Members to the Fareham StreetAid website, which is an online resource that comprises a number of agencies working together to help vulnerable people off the streets of Fareham.
The Panel thanked the Managing Director of Fareham Housing and the Head of Housing and Benefits for providing an extremely well prepared and informative report.
RESOLVED that the Housing Scrutiny Panel recommends to the Executive that the Flexible Homeless Support Grant is used to fund the commissioning of Social Inclusion Services in partnership with Hampshire County Council from 01 August 2019.
