For East Birmingham - located between these two key drivers - we now have a unique opportunity to capitalise on this growth, and to maximise local opportunities, to ensure that local people are able to reap the benefits. In particular we must seek to support local people into sustainable jobs by giving them the skills they need to compete in the labour market. We must deliver development which will provide new jobs, improve connectivity to enable people to access jobs, and also provide the conditions for business growth. THE PROSPECTUS Through this Prospectus we identify the opportunity for more than 350,000sq.m (3.7 million sq.ft) of new employment floorspace and FORMS A STARTING 9,000 new jobs within East Birmingham, and for maximising the “ benefits of growth here and elsewhere in the City for the residents of East Birmingham. POINT FOR RENEWING The Prospectus forms a starting point for renewing our commitment “ to East Birmingham by focusing on three key areas of activity - Employment and Skills, Improved Connectivity and Delivering OUR COMMITMENT TO Growth - which we will develop in partnership with Government.

Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis explores the ways in which the industrialist Matthew Boulton (1728-1809) used images of his manufactory and of himself to help develop what would now be considered a ‘brand’. The argument draws heavily on archival research into the commissioning process, authorship and reception of these depictions. Such information is rarely available when studying prints and allows consideration of these images in a new light but also contributes to a wider debate on British eighteenth-century print culture. The first chapter argues that Boulton used images to convey messages about the output of his businesses, to draw together a diverse range of products and associate them with one site. Chapter two explores the setting of the manufactory and the surrounding estate, outlining Boulton’s motivation for creating the parkland and considering the ways in which it was depicted.

  • Bus Rationalisation Appendix 1
    Technical note Project: Birmingham Bus Stop To: Matthew Till / Danny Gouveia Consolidation Subject: 8A / 8C Draft Report From: Andy Clark / Anna Little / Tim Colles Date: 15th June 2017 cc: Adrian Taylor 1. Introduction Atkins has been commissioned by National Express West Midlands to undertake a study investigating the scope for bus stops on several routes in Birmingham to be rationalised. This is in response to growing concern from National Express West Midlands and Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) regarding increasingly long and unreliable bus journeys in the West Midlands. National Express West Midlands is part of the West Midlands Bus Alliance, consisting of representatives from the region’s bus operators, the West Midlands Combined Authority, council highways and transportation departments, Local Enterprise Partnerships, the Safer Travel Partnership, councillors and Transport Focus. The Alliance Board Members are responsible for identifying what the region’s buses need to deliver and then putting policies and funding streams in place for this to be achieved. In March 2016, the board identified seven key actions which it will work together to deliver by 2020, as outlined in Figure 1. Figure 1. Key Targets for West Midlands Bus Alliance Ticketing Air Quality Open Data Identity Network Development Punctuality Safety and Security Plans The potential impacts on these key targets are considered later in this technical note, with specific focus on punctuality (aiming to reduce delay minutes). This technical note sets out the results from Atkins’ analysis of Routes 8A and 8C. The results of the assessments of other routes are outlined in subsequent technical notes. The route is circular, with 8A denoting buses traversing the route in the anti-clockwise direction and 8C denoting buses in the clockwise direction.

What a fantastic year it has been for me as current chair of the Birmingham Disability Sports Forum. The group has been busy helping to create even more sporting activities for all, and this is due to many more volunteers, organisations, clubs and National Governing Bodies of Sport (NGBs) getting involved with enthusiasm and getting in contact with our highly valued team. Over the years I have been a volunteer and Trustee of The English Federation of Disability Sport (EFDS) and the Dwarf Sports Association (DSAuk). I would encourage any disabled person who feels they would like to get involved in this way to just do it - I learnt so much as I went along and feel so good that I have put back a little of what it has given me and my children, who also have my disability. Don’t think that you have nothing to give, because everyone is valued and supported in this world of sport! I myself as Chairperson have witnessed so many fantastic changes in the city over the past 12 months in sport.
