Introduction This report summarises the findings of the fourth regional benchmarking survey of North West museums, covering the period 2018-19. The survey was carried out to gain a picture of the state of the regional museums sector at the present time and to track any changes and trends from the previous surveys. For the 2017-18 survey Museum Development North West (MDNW) commissioned South West Museum Development (SWMD) to carry out both the data collection and the reporting. For this survey, SWMD carried out the data collection, MDNW analysed and reported on the data. An online survey was sent to all 148 Accredited museums and museums officially working towards Accreditation in the North West, as recognised by Arts Council England (ACE) in June 2019. The return rate was 45%. The sections in the survey were: 1) Museums 2) Audiences 3) Resources (finance, staff and volunteers) For MDNW’s first two surveys, covering 2012 to 2016, there were also questions about collections and access to training, plus a flexible section which changed each year to give a snapshot of a specific issue. Since 2018 each of the English museum development regions has been using the same survey to allow national comparisons, and so these sections have been removed to bring MDNW’s survey in line with other regions.

    ECCLES STATION NEWS APRIL 2013 The contents of this month’s e issue are as follows: News section, Articles. Trip of the month. Book Review. The April newsletter is out a few days early to give notice of the important Freccles AGM. This will be held at the newly refurbished Old Town Hall and you are all invited to attend. Early publication also allows us to highlight the engineering work that will take place over the EASTER WEEKEND, plus there are the usual articles about what has happened, or is about to happen, on your local railway. The Trip of the Month is a much improved revamp of the original Rochdale Town Centre walk. It makes a really good, good value day out. Do give it a try! Editor NEWS Come along and help us at the station on Sunday 7th April, 11.00. Up to twenty people now come along to help garden and keep the place tidy, and we know the work is appreciated by the passengers. 1 Demolition work has started on the old Manchester Mayfield Station which has not been used by trains for several decades. There are big changes due in the area – ESN has heard of the possibility of a new civil service building, and the South Junction side of Piccadilly Station (platforms 13 & 14) is to be replaced with four through platforms as part of the Northern Hub project to increase capacity. Mayfield was built to relieve pressure on Manchester London Road Station (now Piccadilly). It handled rush hour commuter trains, specials, mail and parcels traffic.

Rochdale Borough Council formally committed itself to doing all it can to help former Service personnel in the borough in recognition of the huge sacrifices that members of the Armed Forces and their families make for the country. At a special ceremony at Rochdale Town Hall, council leaders joined with representatives of the NHS, Rochdale Boroughwide Housing and Link4Life to sign the Armed Forces Community Covenant, a voluntary statement of mutual support between the borough and the Services. 17th April 2013 Lance Corporal Stephen Shaw MC Members were made aware of the award of the Military Cross to L/Cpl. Stephen Shaw from Heywood. Stephen’s citation reads: “Shaw’s actions during that horrific attack were in the very finest traditions of the British Army. Despite being shot through the boot and day sack, this young and inexperienced soldier had the presence of mind to return fire and give directions to his commander. “He then took the deliberate decision to enter the killing area, where four of his colleagues lay wounded.” Hundreds of people took to the streets to show their support as the town marked the bravery of Lance Corporal Stephen Shaw MC who was awarded Freedom of the Borough during a moving ceremony at Heywood Civic Centre.
