    Strategic Needs Assessment - Walsall An Assessment of the Risk of Violence in Walsall April 2021 1 Table of Contents Section Title Page 1 Introduction 2 2 Context 3 3 Violence in Walsall 3 4 County Lines 5 5 Schools and Education 9 6 Children in Care 12 7 Risk Factors 11 8 West Midlands VRU Risk Index 15 9 Comparing Neighbourhoods with High Risk and High Violence 17 10 The Economic Impact of Covid-19 in Walsall 18 11 Summary and Conclusion 20 12 Annexes and References 22 Introduction This report by West Midlands Violence Reduction Unit (WM VRU) assesses the risk to children and young people in Walsall of experiencing violence and exploitation, particularly in view of the relaxing of lockdown restrictions in the spring and summer of 2021. It draws on data from a range of sources - data has been selected based on what it tells us about the extent of violence in Walsall, but also based on what it reveals about the risk factors that increase the likelihood of young people being drawn into violence and the threat of exploitation. Full details of the data used and the sources are available in the references on page 22. The risk factors are varied and should not be considered direct causes, but there are strong correlations between rates of child poverty, adversity, mental health and school exclusions, and rates of violence. The report focuses on youth violence and knife crime. It begins by looking at the extent of youth violence in Walsall in recent years, according to Police incident data and NHS data on hospital admissions for assault with a sharp object (usually knife 2 wounds).

The sudden announcement sets up a fresh electoral contest in Hartlepool, a seat long-held by Labour, marking the rst test of Sir Keir Starmer’s leadership since taking over from Jeremy Corbyn last year. “Mike Hill has resigned as Member of Parliament for Hartlepool with immediate effect,” a party spokeswoman said.

  • John Matthews and Sons Pioneer Stonemen
    JOHN MATTHEWS AND SONS PIONEER STONEMEN by Clay w. stuckey OCTOBER, 2013 4 John Matthews and Sons: Pioneer Stonemen by Clay W. Stuckey Several names appear prominently in the history of the limestone business throughout the last half of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Sometimes it seems that behind every grout pile there lurks a Hoadley. The name Matthews is no exception and John Matthews and his sons played a seminal role in that history. He has been called the “father of the limestone industry” and is often referred to as a pioneer in the business.1 This paper is a brief look at the Matthews, father and sons, and their legacy. Beginnings John Matthews was born on October 10, 1806 in Sussex County, England.2 He was a stone sawyer by trade and met his second wife Mary Ann Drake in London while working for her father on the new parliament building.3 A fire in 1834 had destroyed the seat of government and in 1837 John began working on the rebuilding. John had been married previously to a Bridget Dunn and their son Alfred had been born about 1829. Alfred would come to the United States with the family but a daughter from that first marriage, Catherine Sophia, although she may have come to America for a time, eventually returned to England.4 She had been born in 1826 and died on January 21, 1909. Nothing is known about the first wife Bridget or the manner in which the marriage was ended. Presumably she died.5 Alfred would die in 1891 in Ellettsville, Indiana but would not play the role his half-brothers did in the stone business.
