This Council agrees with the concerns of the Member of Parliament for Leeds Central and believes it is time for the ruling administration to prove to residents and businesses that they can make the Managed Approach work, or suspend it. 2 14 White Paper Motion (in the name of Councillor Coupar) - 327 - 328 Universal Credit This Council remains deeply concerned by the potentially devastating impact the full roll out of Universal Credit will have on vulnerable people and low income families in Leeds, despite the Chancellor’s recent budget announcement. Council is appalled by reports that Universal Credit: Exacerbates poverty and hardship, including child poverty Makes low income working families poorer Forces people to choose between food and rent Places people into debt because of delayed payments Leads to increased rent arrears for tenants in social housing Makes it harder for victims of domestic violence to leave abusive relationships Disadvantages non-IT literate people Council notes that Universal Credit is likely to impact 85,000 people/families in Leeds when fully rolled out, with 10,000 affected in the first 12 months. Council therefore calls on the Government to stop the roll out of Universal Credit without delay. 15 White Paper Motion (not for debate) (in the name of 329 - 330 Councillor Blake) - International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance This Council adopts the full IHRA working definition of antisemitism, including the 11 contemporary examples of antisemitism, as resolved in the May 2016 plenary session of the IHRA.

  • Individual and Institution in the Musical Life of Leeds 1900-1914
    Individual and Institution in the Musical Life of Leeds 1900-1914 Robert Demaine Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of York Department of Music July 2000 Abstract In the years immediately before the First World War the city of Leeds enjoyed a rich and diverse musical life which has remained largely unchronicled thanks in part to an emphasis on London in much English musical history. This thesis attempts to redress the balance by charting the development of local institutions in the fields of choral, orchestral and chamber music which were created by the industry and dedication of a small number of outstanding individuals, now long-forgotten, whose efforts in the cause of Leeds music are placed within their social and historical context. The influence of the Leeds Triennial Festival, that cornerstone of the city's musical reputation in the latter half of the nineteenth century, is considered along with the work of the two leading choral societies which dominated so much of Leeds musical life at the time. Pioneering enterprises, such as those to establish a permanent municipal orchestra in the city and a regular series for the performance of contemporary chamber music, are examined in detail against the backdrop of a society undergoing fundamental change. It is often assumed that the First World War brought a violent and sudden end to what might be viewed as a golden age in English music. This thesis will show how the forces of change were already being experienced within local musical institutions which were attempting to come to terms with them even as the apocalyptic events of 1914 were approaching.

Photo: Lizzie Coombes THE HEADINGLEY POSTIE Whether the weather is sunny or chill, The Headingley Postie rides over the hill, And into the suburb that she likes the most, To deliver her bag full of Headingley post, And as she distributes the Headingley mail, She’ll often pick up a few Headingley tales – Tales to astonish and tales to astound – Told by the people she meets on her round. 1 I first came to live in Headingley over 50 years ago, and spent the early years pushing“ a pram with baby and toddlers around the local shops: butcher, baker, Cowley’s the greengrocer, Groocock’s the upmarket grocer, with the occasional luxury of a coffee in Silvio’s café or a browse in Walker’s bookshop. Headingley became my familiar and much-loved home ground and long years later, after retirement from teaching and the Open University, I discovered the pleasure of finding out about its past, exploring its hidden corners and hearing the stories and memories of some of the people who had lived all their lives there. Joining the Thoresby historical society gave me access to a wonderful resource of maps, books, and pictures to help with research, together with other local archives. I started working on the history of our home in Woodbine Terrace (off Grove Lane) and that led on inevitably to an exploration of the history of the streets around and the village itself.

  • 8 March 2020 Programme. Over 100 Amazing
    Box Office: 0113 376 0318 leedslitfest.co.uk 1 4 — 8 MARCH 2020 PROGRAMME. OVER 100 AMAZING EVENTS IN 35 VENUES ACROSS LEEDSLITFEST.CO.UK THE CITY. Welcome to the Leeds Lit Fest 2020 Programme Leeds Lit Fest is supported by: Our 2nd Festival will see over 100 events take place between Wednesday 4th and Sunday 8th March in some of the city’s finest buildings and also some of its most unusual and unlikely locations. The Festival is intended to be like no other lit fest in the UK. Alongside events featuring some of the country’s finest writers will be both a number of quirky and unusual non-traditional literary events and projects, as well as an ‘Inspiring the city’ events programme happening throughout the city, not just in the city centre. No other literature festival has attempted to embrace a city-wide approach in this way and will mean the Leeds Lit Fest is the largest literature focused festival the city has ever hosted. Across the course of the 5 days, the Festival will host alongside talks, panel discussions and readings, a series of walks, theatre and music performances, spoken word nights, a sound installation, two immersive literature adventures, a film screening, and Live Art, in more than 20 venues. We want to inspire the city to get involved in writing so alongside this ambitious programme of events will be a number of creative writing workshops featuring some of the region’s finest writers passing on their expertise. There will also be a series of podcasts linked to these workshops that we hope will provide inspiration for as many people as possible to engage in writing.
