  • October 2018 LIVERY COMMITTEE
    LIVERY October 2018 BRIEFING LIVERY COMMITTEE - ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN AND DEPUTY CHAIRMAN In September, the Committee elected its Chairman and Deputy Chairman for the coming year. Having served as a liveryman member of the Livery Committee since 2011, nominated by the Fellowship of Clerks, and for the last two years as its Deputy Chairman, Vicky Russell was elected as its Chairman. Vicky has been an active member of the Committee, chairing the Livery Companies Working Group, responsible for the Livery Liaison Scheme, since 2013 and the Communications Working Group since 2015; this latter group being responsible for the four annual City Briefings as well as the annual Wardens and Court Assistants course and the Clerks’ Briefing. Vicky Russell is committed to and cares passionately about the Livery and its activities. She was Master of the Arbitrators’ Company 2001-2 and Master of the Constructors’ Company 2014-15. She also belongs to the Solicitors’ Company. Vicky is a committee member of the Golden Jubilee Masters Association and the Lady Masters Association and an active member of the Magna Masters Association. In her election address, Vicky stated that, in her view, the Livery Committee is at a critical stage of its development, most particularly in light of the growing momentum of the Pan-Livery Initiative. She added that at this juncture there is the need for positive and strategic change in the work and focus of the Committee in order to ensure that it not only remains relevant but also becomes more significant. The Livery Committee elected Deputy Chairman, Philip Woodhouse. Philip is a Member of the Court of Common Council, Deputy for the Ward of Langbourn and a past Master of the Grocers’ Company.

    Committee(s): Date: Policy and Resources 3 June 2021 Subject: Public Amendment to an Act of Common Council - Aldermanic Elections Which outcomes in the City Corporation’s Corporate Plan does this proposal aim to impact directly? Does this proposal require extra revenue and/or No capital spending? If so, how much? N/A What is the source of Funding? N/A Has this Funding Source been agreed with the N/A Chamberlain’s Department? Report of: Town Clerk For Decision Report Author: Lorraine Brook Summary The Act of Common Council (as amended) of 14 July 1960 requires that, following the death, resignation (surrender of Office) or disqualification of an Alderman, the matter shall be reported by the Town Clerk to the next regular meeting of the Court of Aldermen. 1 A report of such matters to the Court of Aldermen shall, as per paragraph 4 of the Act of Common Council, result in a Wardmote being summoned and held for the election of an Alderman of the Ward within forty-two working days.

As per the current requirements, an election would be held within the Ward of Cordwainer within 42 working days.

  • Songs and Music of the City of London: a New Pocket Guide to the City of London’S Contemporary Activities Involving Music in All Its Facets
    June 2021 Dear Clerks to the several City of London Livery Companies, Following the culmination of a two-year project, we are pleased to announce the publication of Songs and Music of the City of London: a new pocket guide to the City of London’s contemporary activities involving music in all its facets. We are delighted that Alderman Sir Andrew Parmley, Lord Mayor of London (2016-17), has written the Foreword. The guide covers education, performance and composition of music, whether in the City’s churches, schools, in the Barbican Centre, on the City’s streets such as during the Lord Mayor’s Show, or through sponsorship by the Livery Companies through education and awards. It also includes the various anthems, songs and sung graces of the City’s Livery Companies. In our research for content, we have been constantly surprised at every turn by such a rich abundance of musical talent, events, venues, and performing groups concentrated in such a small geographic area. In our belief that hitherto no single existing publication has captured the immense array of ways in which the City benefits wider society through the medium of music, the aim of our guide is to fill this gap by means of a concise, accessible guide for all. The publication takes the form of a pocket guide, equally suited to the needs of the tourist, the City worker, and those among the Livery Companies and affiliated organisations who have an interest in the musical events and activities within the City. The material is intended for a generalist audience rather than the music aficionado.

  • June 2018 NEWS
    LIVERY June 2018 BRIEFING Message from the Chairman, Deputy Richard Regan OBE Dear Liverymen, I present the latest edition of the Livery Briefing newsletter, which I hope is both interesting and useful to all members of the Livery. The Livery Committee website also provides a huge source of information and I hope you will not hesitate to let either myself or the Deputy Chairman, Victoria Russell, know if there are any areas of interest that you feel are not covered either in the periodical newsletter or on this website. Should you wish to contact us or contribute to future editions of the Briefing, please contact the Clerk to the Livery Committee, Gregory Moore, who will pass on any correspondence. Common Hall has of course been a major event for all Liverymen this month, particularly since it was contested by four candidates. Your Livery Committee considered various ways in which to modify the usual show of hands and visual count to ensure clarity, transparency, accuracy, and equity. It was hoped that a result could be declared on the day and I would like to thank Liverymen assembled for their patience, the candidates for their co-operation and the many staff who attended all three Halls which enabled this to be the case. We will be looking at how we can further improve the future arrangements where there is a contested Election, in particular the Count where a show of hands is specified under the relevant governing legislation and I would also draw your attention to the arrangements for 2019 and the proposed double Aldermanic Election in 2020/21.

  • NEWSLETTER of the WORSHIPFUL COMPANY of TURNERS of LONDON June 2012
    THE TURNER NEWSLETTER OF THE WORSHIPFUL COMPANY OF TURNERS OF LONDON June 2012 I am delighted that it is my privilege to be Master of the Worshipful Company of Turners for the coming year. I am conscious of the responsibilities I carry, but I have the assistance of two outstanding Wardens to ensure that I don’t go too far wrong. However, it will be critical for me to have the support of the Court, Past Masters and the whole Livery as well, if I am to match the successes of my predecessors. I am incredibly fortunate to be Master in, possibly, one of the most interesting and exciting years of this century. The Company will share in the celebrations for Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee by assisting with the manufacture of some parts of the Royal Barge and by our inclusion in a lunch with The Queen and senior members of the Royal Family in Westminster Hall on 5th June. We will all be able to enjoy the Summer Olympics either by being there or through the media. As a Company we will hold the third Wizardry in Wood exhibition in October. To ensure the success of this event every Company member living within travelling distance of London should plan on being involved in one way or another. For my part, I will also be attending functions, within the City and beyond, the prime purpose of which is to promote the work of our Company through the Livery network. While the day-to-day business of running the Company is the responsibility of our Clerk, our committees undertake much vital work.
