The original split (of your 1000kg) could have been 342kg RW and 658kg GW. If 342kg is increased by 52% this equals 520kg. If 658kg is reduced by 27% this equals 480kg, thus still equating to the same 1000kg you started with. And in all reality, why would any household begin to generate more waste just because the container for it was emptied less frequently? I hope my comments might give you an alternative view to reflect on. A. Kennedy Editor: Hello Angela, Thanks for your reply and for explaining the maths to me. Percentages were never my strong point. I fully accept your comments, take them on board and realise that we indeed have bigger things to be concerned about.

Isle of Man TT Masterclass Page 20 Engaging Communities Page 4 PLUS All the usual features The Trumpit Editorial So my friends, how do you feel about the new Trumpit? We have had many comments in the first couple of weeks and almost all of them favourable, but we need more. We can’t possibly keep readers happy if you don’t tell us what you don’t like as well as what you do. Each month we will publish our ‘takings’ so you will all know what there is available for local good causes, secondly we also wish to encourage local writers and photographers to submit their work, we will not be making monitory offers for these but please let us have your names and addresses to publicize your work, but please tell us if you would like any details withholding. With the decline in sale of other local newspapers, local news is being lost, Social Me- dia is ok but it is over and done with the following day so we believe we are crucial in this by keeping news alive and in front of the public. Other matters this month are Hatches, Matches and Despatches (Births, Marriages and Deaths) another local service which has declined in recent years, but is still important. Please let us have these notices, just remember our deadline dates are usually around the 25th, of the month and space is at a premium so keep them relatively short.

  • March 2005 to 2018
    March 2005 - 2018 March 2018 During this cold wet month, a single Osprey passed over Oxenhope (7th) and another caught the attention of local crows as it flew north over the Wharfe Valley (15th). Three Whooper Swans were seen on Lower Barden Reservoir (21st) and eight others spent a few hours feeding on flooded fields at Silsden (17th), this was on the same day that eight Shovelers were located. During the month, a single male Shoveler spent a couple of weeks on Yeadon Tarn and three others visited Silsden Reservoir (21st). Little Egrets have become more common in the area, particularly in the Aire Valley. A single visited Stockbridge and two others were reported as they fed alongside the by-pass at Silsden. Redshanks also found conditions here to their liking, as 15 were feeding on the flooded fields (19th). Water Rails were, as expected, seen at Stockbridge, but the only Pochard in the area was a female at Yeadon Tarn. At Park Dam, Low Moor, a pair of Gadwall and a pair of Mandarins were seen, whilst three were three pairs of the latter on the Wharfe between Ilkley and Knotford Nook. Snipe had begun their courtship flights over Glovershaw where 25 pairs of Lapwings were established on their traditional breeding grounds. Prior to dispersal, Golden Plovers were reported in flocks of between 30 and 50 at Glovershaw, Hawksworth Moor, Moorside Lane, Oxenhope and on the by-pass at Silsden. Tree Sparrows were located at Dobrudden Farm, Baildon and in Judy Woods whilst Tawny Owls were breeding in Shipley Glen and at Stockbridge.

  • The Ivory Tower and Beyond: Bradford University at the Heart of Its Communities
    THE IVORY TOWER AND BEYOND: BRADFORD UNIVERSITY AT THE HEART OF ITS COMMUNITIES The Bradford University’s REAP Approach to Measuring and Evaluating Community Engagement Professor Jenny Pearce and Martin Pearson with Dr Sam Cameron EXECUTIVE SUMMARY REAP stands for Reciprocity, Externalities, Access and Partnership. It is about how a University can work with communities for mutual benefit as well as the enhancement of the city, town or district in which the University is located. This document describes how the metrix team, charged with designing a measurement tool for the University’s Community Engagement work, arrived at REAP. It begins by tracing the way that Bradford University has worked with its communities prior to winning a major bid under the second Higher Education Innovation Fund in 2005 to extend its community engagement work. A database is included in the appendices of the University’s work with its communities between 2003-2005. Secondly, it outlines the national HEFCE drivers to promoting wider engagement between Universities and their communities, and the way Bradford University interpreted these drivers. Bradford University’s priorities have reflected the dynamics of its local environment, which includes some of the most deprived wards in the country, a multi-ethnic population, and a serious regeneration challenge. In its first phase of Community Engagement (2005-2006), Bradford appointed six Community Associates to be the bridge between the University and its communities: to develop understanding in the community of what a University does and better inform the University about the community. The metrix team worked closely with these Community Associates during their first year to develop an understanding of Community Engagement from the activities and discussions they initiated – all the Community Associates had a history of working with the communities and statutory bodies of Bradford District.
