Yoruba 4 Date Monday December 4 2006 Venue Southwark Town Hall, Peckham Road, SE5 8UB Start time 7.00pm Finish time 10.10pm In attendance Cllrs Wingfield, Rhule, Ward, Friary, John, Page, Jones, and McGovern Absent Apologies received Councillor Dixon-Fyle, Councillor McGovern (lateness) Urgent items There were none Members’ interests Two Members declared interests in Item12: Cleaner Greener Safer: and dispensations Councillor Friary declared an interest as a trustee of Camberwell After school Club; Councillor Page declared an interest in the Havil Street Transport Feasibility Study. Q1 Is our Community Council aware of the diabolical way the Grosvenor Estate has been treated by our Written Council in relation to a 5-storey block of flats to be erected at 45 Urlwin Street? The Head of Question Department & the Borough Solicitor in their report actually state “the failure of officers to actively support the Planning Committee’s decision has the potential to erode community confidence” – well, let me tell you it has! Why is there not a challenge at the High Court when Planning Aid provided the ammunition to do this? This is not even mentioned in the Report. We believe maladministration has taken place. A1 The Strategic Director of Regeneration took the decision not to proceed with a legal challenge to the Inspector’s decision. This decision took into account the strength of feeling as expressed by residents directly and through this question. It also took into account advice on the views expressed by Planning Aid. The decision has been called in by Overview and Scrutiny. Q2 As Editor of Peckham Society News, last week yet again I had a bad experience with the call centre. I Written needed information from the excellent Newington Reference Library. I wasted six minutes before Question being cut off, without getting through to the library. What action is being taken to stop the inefficiency of the very expensive call centre? Residents are becoming angry and frustrated. The next day he was put through to the wrong part of the Newington Library. A2 From March 2006 Southwark's Customer Service Centre took over the answering of first contact library calls made by the public. It was envisioned that this would mean that librarians, instead of answering calls, would be able to better run the libraries and add value to the service. The main aim of this was for roles such as PC bookings and book renewals to be centralised to add efficiency and give a better service to the public Overall 5 this has worked. Currently the average call waiting on the libraries services is 32 seconds and we answer 93% of all the calls that are offered. This has been a huge improvement from earlier this year and we are working to achieve even more. This being said we do understand that problems do arise, especially with services such as the reference library. Because of the nature of the library some people will need to speak to them directly, and we do try to connect these people to the library. We are working closely with Libraries such as the Newington Reference Library to see how we can provide a better service and how customers can access information easier and talk to the librarians without having to wait. For the moment if you do need to speak to the reference library then please do not hesitate to call. If you do experience any problems then please ask to speak to a resolution officer or a supervisor who will be happy to assist. Q3 All responsible dog owners are very disturbed by the Parks Department ushering in a new policy about Written dogs in parks. This is on the back of “new signage”, whereby all dogs must be kept on leads in the Question majority of Southwark’s parks. There was no expert advice sought (veterinary surgeons or the RSPCA), nor were dog walkers consulted. This will have a drastic effect upon the physical and psychological welfare of owners and animals alike. We would like the Parks Department to reverse the decision and maintain the policy of the last 30 years of “Keep dogs under control”. A majority of users in parks on weekdays and in the winter months are dog walkers. A3 The Council does not intend to ban dogs being allowed to exercise off the lead in Southwark's parks from January 2007.

  • Street Violence Amongst Young Men in London: Everyday Experiences of Masculinity and Fear in Public Space
    Street Violence amongst Young Men in London: everyday experiences of masculinity and fear in public space A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Michael Whelan School of Sport and Education Brunel University 30th April 2013 Abstract Arising out of widespread concerns that incidents of street violence amongst young people in the UK were spiralling out of control, this research draws on feminist deconstructions of the public -private space divide to emphasise the importance of a social constructionist perspective on street violence; street violence as it is experienced, understood and constructed by young people. Methodologically this research combines ethnography with Critical Discourse Analysis in what has been referred to as critical ethnography (Fairclough, 2001). Adopting a practitioner research approach within a primarily street based youth work setting, accounts were drawn from a range of sources, including interviews and participant observation with youth workers, young people and local public figures. This study draws out the implications for young men’s subjective experiences of the inner city streets near where they live, focusing on the construction of masculinities in the context of political pressures and institutiona lised discourses of young people. The young men in this research experienced uncertain and often fearful public spaces in which the ability to construct a credible propensity for violence was an essential part of a successful masculine identity. It is suggested that a significantly greater focus is required on critical gender identity work with young men, specifically in relation to their identity constructions in public space. 2 Contents Street Violence amongst Young Men in London: everyday experiences of masculinity and fear in public space .................................................................................................................

  • The Art of Travel by Alain De Botton Awakening Early on That First
    Source A: The Art of Travel by Alain de Botton Awakening early on that first morning, I slipped on the dressing gown provided and went out on to the veranda. In the dawn light the sky was a pale grey-blue and, after the rustlings of the night before, all the creatures and even the wind seemed in deep sleep. It was as quiet as a library. Beyond the hotel room stretched a wide beach which was covered at first with coconut trees and then sloped unhindered towards the sea. I climbed over the veranda’s low railings and walked across the sand. Nature was at her most benevolent. It was as if, in creating this small horseshoe bay, she had chosen to atone for her ill-temper in other regions and decided to display only her munificence. The trees provided shade and milk, the floor of the sea was lined with shells, the sand was powdery and the colour of sun- ripened wheat, and the air – even in the shade – had an enveloping, profound warmth to it so unlike the fragility of northern European heat, always prone to cede, even in midsummer, to a more assertive, proprietary chill. I found a deck chair at the edge of the sea. I could hear small lapping sounds beside me, as if a kindly monster was taking discreet sips of water from a large goblet. A few birds were waking up and beginning to career through the air in maximal excitement. Behind me, the raffia roofs of the hotel bungalows were visible through gaps in the trees.

  • Second Draft
    FINAL DRAFT Report on the Children and Young People Overview and Scrutiny Commission’s review into Gang Culture in Derby and the actions being taken to combat it. 1. Introduction 1. In the early spring of 2009 the Chair of the Children and Young People (CYP) Overview and Scrutiny Commission proposed that Commission should conduct a short review to explore the background to the ‘gang culture’ that members considered had become established in Derby. The review was prompted by murder of Derby teenager Kadeem Blackwood in November 2008 and by a wish, on the part of the Chair, to ensure that the City Council and its partners were fully aware of the problems associated with gangs and were doing everything possible address them. 2. Outline of the Review 2. The original objectives of the review were for the Commission to hold a single meeting at which members would: 1. Find out from young people how they view the current situation in Derby, how gangs affect them and about what they think the Council and the Police should be doing. 2. Ask the Police and the Derby Community Safety Partnership (DCSP) for their assessment of the present situation, about what doing/intending to do, and about what has been achieved. 3. It was then intended that members would consider the evidence given by both sets of witnesses, would identify any issues which it seemed had not been or would not be addressed and would then make any appropriate recommendations. 4. The proposals for the Commission’s review were the subject of a press release which resulted in some local media publicity.

    Mediation and Gangs: A Study of Violence Reduction in the Metropolitan Police Area in London Eric J. Phelps University of Portsmouth: Institute of Criminal Justice Studies September 2015 Submitted to the University of Portsmouth in Partial Fulfilment of the Professional Doctorate Degree in Criminal Justice Declaration Whilst registered as a candidate for the above degree, I have not been registered for any other research award. The results and conclusions embodied in this thesis are the work of the named candidate and have not been submitted for any other academic award Word Count – 50,966 (excluding appendices, acknowledgements, list tables). Signed............................................................Date............27 September 2015 1 Abstract Gang violence in London is an increasing problem that has gained momentum in the last two decades. Finding workable solutions to reduce gang violence or interventions in the current economic climate is a constant challenge for practitioners. This study examines the use of mediation as a tactic for reducing gang violence. Through data analysis, outcomes of this intervention are explored. The initial research conducted shows that there is a significant correlation between reductions in violent reoffending between those referred for mediation and those not referred. Further analysis of 17 semi-structured interviews conducted in the UK suggests that individuals do not have to engage in the mediation process for it to have an effect. Very often, the fact that an individual has been referred will be sufficient to deter continued violent offending. This research suggests that the implications for practice requires a unified co-ordinated response to violence that includes the proactive provision of joined up activity from the authorities, such as education, housing, health, social services and employment agencies.

Such concern has been driven forward by growing reports of gang activity reported in the media, circulated by populist politicians as well as by academic researchers convinced the European gang has been ignored for too long. This anxiety has coalesced in a perception that the gang is a serious and growing problem, that the rise in lethal violence, as seen recently in inner cities such as London, Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool, is connected to the proliferation of the gang, and that the solution to the problem of urban gang violence lies in its suppression.
