  • Medieval Heritage and Pilgrimage Walks
    Medieval Heritage and Pilgrimage Walks Cleveland Way Trail: walk the 3 miles from Rievaulx Abbey, Yorkshire to Helmsley Castle and tread in the footsteps of medieval Pilgrims along what’s now part of the Cleveland Way Trail. Camino de Santiago/Way of St James, Spain: along with trips to the Holy Land and Rome, this is the most famous medieval pilgrimage trail of all, and the most well-travelled in medieval times, at least until the advent of Black Death. Its destination point is the spot St James is said to have been buried, in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Today Santiago is one of UNESCO’s World Heritage sites. Read more . the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela holds a Pilgrims’ Mass every day at noon. Walk as much or as little of it as you like. Follow the famous scallop shell symbols. A popular starting point, both today and in the Middle Ages, is either Le Puy in the Massif Central, France OR the famous medieval Abbey at Cluny, near Paris. The Spanish start is from the Pyrenees, on to Roncevalles or Jaca. These routes also take in the Via Regia and/or the Camino Frances. The Portuguese way is also popular: from the Cathedrals in either Lisbon or Porto and then crossing into Falicia/Valenca. At the end of the walk you receive a stamped certifi cate, the Compostela. To achieve this you must have walked at least 100km or cycled for 200. To walk the entire route may take months. Read more . The route has inspired many TV and fi lm productions, such as Simon Reeve’s BBC2 ‘Pilgrimage’ series (2013) and The Way (2010), written and directed by Emilio Estevez, about a father completing the pilgrimage in memory of his son who died along the Way of St James.

  • Southampton UK City of Culture Bid Joint Committee 10 February
    Item 12 Report to the Partnership for South Hampshire Joint Committee Date: 10 February 2020 Report of: Sandy Hopkins, Chief Executive - Southampton City Council Carolyn Abel, Head of Culture - Southampton City Council Subject: SOUTHAMPTON BID FOR UK CITY OF CULTURE DESIGNATION 2025 SUMMARY Joint Committee will receive a verbal presentation outlining work around UK City of Culture 2025. Established in 2013, UK City of Culture is a national designation awarded every four years to a city for one year. Administered by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, it builds on the success of Liverpool as European City of Culture in 2008 which brought significant economic and social benefits to the area. The aim of the initiative is to deliver a step change and transformation in the winning city’s strategic ambitions through multi-stakeholder collaboration. At Southampton City Council’s Annual General Meeting on 15 May 2019, a joint motion pledged to work together with stakeholders to bid for UK City of Culture in 2025 on behalf of our all communities to realise the economic and social potential of our places, and to encourage their involvement in shaping our villages, towns, cities and the region as a whole. The national evidence shows that when Culture in its broadest sense is truly part of the mix it contributes to delivering sustainable economic, social, health and wellbeing outcomes. These include: boosting civic pride, identity and community cohesion; supporting social, health and wellbeing benefits; attracting significant inward investment; creating new jobs, skills and learning opportunities; boosting the visitor and wider economy; developing the creative industries and artistic talent; and in the long term, better alignment of resources and partnership working to benefit residents, visitors and businesses.

The project investigates the synthesis, the structural and physicochemical characterization of compounds that regenerate during the release process to provide a ‘green’ and cost-effective carbon capture technology. The research activities aim to assess the techno-economic feasibility of reversible chemical/physical adsorption and desorption of CO2 using these new materials. The positions are supervised by Professor Wolfgang Schmitt (School of Chemistry) within the Advanced Materials and BioEngineering Research (AMBER) Centre and is closely associated with a recently established Trinity College Campus company. Vacancies arise for highly motivated researchers with strong experience in Physical and/or Inorganic Chemistry or Materials Science.
