Burnley and District U3A News-Sheet Issue 7 18/08/20 Burnley and District U3A News-Sheet Issue 7 Hello everyone. Can you believe this is our seventh news-sheet since the start of lockdown in March? I, for one, find it hard to believe. I have to confess that I sometimes find it difficult to keep the "news" content fresh, interesting and relevant to our U3A as actual news can be rather sparse. I am indebted to those among you who have contributed to the various issues. Without your articles, amusing stories, jokes and quizzes there would be no news-sheet. It is a sad fact that there is little prospect of resuming anything approaching our normal U3A activities in the foreseeable future. Given the recent increase in Covid-19 cases in our area and the additional restrictions to which we are now subject, it looks increasingly unlikely that we will see a change before 2021. The Third Age Trust has issued national guidelines for restarting groups but the requirements for safe operation in "Covid-secure" premises are daunting and your committee still does not support the resumption of activities that involve physical meetings of our groups. The other day the lady in charge of bookings for one of the venues used by many of our groups, Padiham Road Methodist Church, told me that the church has not yet resumed services for worship. When services do resume, the church will not have the staff to clean and sanitize meetings rooms between groups so the rooms are unlikely to be available to hire. This is likely to be the case with other venues, too. If you would like to read the national guidelines yourself you can find them at: https://mcusercontent.com/656ad5962b370cc9e2731d1ed/files/cac211e0-685e-4f43-a06e- 31c2fd8fd408/7th_August_England_Advice_for_Restarting_Interest_Groups_August_2020_ with_risk_asseement_Final_.pdf (You may have to copy and paste the link into your browser address bar) Of course, local restrictions in force at the moment override anything contained in these guidelines. Zoom Have you tried Zoom for holding meetings of your groups? The Italian Group, who, you may remember, were communicating in Italian using WhatsApp, has started to hold fortnightly Zoom meetings. There have been two so far with the next scheduled for Wednesday 19th August. The free version of Zoom allows meetings of up to 40 minutes, though our experience so far has been that they have extended this during the meeting and we have continued for more than an hour. It has worked well for the group, giving us the next best thing to face-to-face contact and conversation. All who have participated are keen to continue. Have any other groups tried Zoom? We've had no feedback to say whether any are managing to hold virtual meetings and I'm sure members would be interested to hear. If you have not yet been involved in a Zoom meeting it's fairly straightforward and you can find tutorials on YouTube. U3A National Office also runs live tutorials, for which you need to register. It's too late to register for the August tutorials but I'm sure there will be more in the next month or so. You can find details on the National U3A website. 1 18/08/20 Burnley and District U3A Website A few months ago the Burnley and District U3A website seemed to have been subjected to a "hack" and had become difficult to manage. Don't worry, though, no information of any kind relating to any of our members was stored on or accessible through the site so no personal data was compromised. The hack related only to unauthorised emails emanating from the site. As a result of the difficulties we decided to move the site to another host and use U3A Site Builder to create a new website whilst still using much of the content from the old site. Jim Sutcliffe has spent many hours building the new site and moving content from the old and, thanks to him, the new website is now active. The new site may not look as attractive as the old - it has been described as "very 1995" - but it is easier to maintain, easier to edit content (Jim has given me access so I can add or change various things as well as he), is hosted by U3A Site Builder with back up from them and shares a common basic format with most other U3As' sites. Please visit the website and have a look for yourselves. The web address is: https://u3asites.org.uk/burnley/home Please note that if you try to access the old website you will see the following message: "Apologies: the site which you have requested is not available from this host. Details of all U3A web sites currently published here can be found on this alphabetic index." If you click on "alphabetic index" you will be taken to a list of U3A sites from which you can select Burnley and District. The new website is still developing and we may expect further changes or additions in the coming months. One development could be for Group Leaders to have the option to edit or add to their own group's web page, if they wish, without having to involve Jim or me. We hope to add more photographs to the site as the months progress, showing, for example, different group activities, either on individual group pages or in a gallery - or both - so if you think you have pictures suitable for inclusion please don't be afraid to submit them, either to me or to Jim Sutcliffe. If, having had a look at the new website, you have any suggestions for improvement or content do let us know and they will be given full consideration. Photography Group The group is hoping to resume activities within the next month or so. Whilst it's not possible to hold meetings, we intend to set monthly photographic projects for our members. Members will be able to upload their photos online to a Google Photos album set up for the specific month's project so they can share their results and comments with the rest of the group. You are welcome to look at the prototype album we produced to try out Google Photos. If you would like to see it please copy and paste the following link into your browser address bar: https://photos.app.goo.gl/YsuJcV3U7XWXt62eA Now read on and enjoy the rest of this news-sheet Stuart Chattle 2 18/08/20 A FEW GARDENING TIPS 1. Bubble-wrap, taped inside glass, is an excellent insulation for greenhouses and frost protection during the winter for outdoor plants in pots. Wrap it around and over the pots. 2. Use shower caps that you get from hotels to make a propagator top for large plant pots. 3. The writing on your own plant labels will last longer with a covering of clear nail varnish, applied as soon as you have written the name. If you don’t need the label, peel off the varnish and the writing will come off too. 4. Scoops for the compost bag can be made out of 2 pint plastic milk bottles. Cut at an angle about 8ins along from the cap end. Make sure the handle is in line with the angled cut. 5. Keep old dark-coloured jumpers and fleeces for lining hanging baskets. 6. Terracotta pots dry out quickly. Line the insides with plastic bags. 7. If you need to get weeds out from between delicate seedlings or around fragile potted plants try using a pair of eyebrow tweezers. 8. If you want your compost to rot down quickly you need urine. But only male urine will do. 9. Cut old tights into strips. Use as ties for gentle climbers and perennials. The material stretches, allowing for movement in the wind and does not cut the branches. 10. Vases of cut flowers last longer if they are not positioned near bowls of fruit, especially bananas. And finally: There can be no occupation like gardening in which, if you were to creep up behind someone at their work, you would find them smiling. Pat Ferguson 3 18/08/20 Melinda's Lockdown Blog 17th July 2020 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Extraordinary week 18 It’s off! The plaster cast on my left arm, I mean. I thought once it was released from the weight of the cast my arm would feel light, but instead it felt just like a piece of limp lettuce, mostly useless. I watched as the technician used her circular saw to cut open the plaster and asked her how she judged how deep to make the cut. “Oh, I know from experience,” she said. I was glad I wasn’t her first patient! So now the hard work starts, getting the full use of that wrist back again. So far it’s been easy to attempt the exercises on the photocopied sheet I was given, but seeing the improvement is proving difficult. I was surprised to find that the end of my left thumb and two other fingers are numb. Nerve damage, I guess. I hope it’s only temporary. It’s early days yet, I suppose. Have you been out and about more, now that the lock-down is easing? I’ve only been as far as Manchester, on the bus, fully masked. I didn’t find it uncomfortable, wearing a mask for more than an hour, but was surprised how hot it made me feel. The trip to Manchester was not so much an outing, more a duty visit to a property there.

    ITEM NO REPORT TO EXECUTIVE DATE 10th December 2013 PORTFOLIO Resources REPORT AUTHOR Andrew Leah TEL NO 01282 477149 EMAIL [email protected] ASSET MANAGEMENT – PUBLIC TOILET PROVISION PURPOSE 1. To report on current provision of toilet facilities in the Borough and outline proposals for future action. RECOMMENDATION 2. That Executive approve the closure of the public toilets at Colne Road (Queensgate) adjacent to the bus depot, Briercliffe Road adjacent to the hospital, East Street in Hapton and reduced opening hours for the toilets at Padiham Town Hall. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION 3. To promote the ongoing review and rationalisation of toilet provision across the Borough to reduce costs. SUMMARY OF KEY POINTS 4. The Council last reviewed toilet provision in April 2004 following which a number of the less well used and inadequate toilet blocks, Accrington Road, Manchester Road, Thursfield Road, Lee Street, Cliviger and Duke Street (Harle Syke) were closed. 5. Since this time the Council has concentrated upon providing modern accessible toilet accommodation in the most heavily used locations. Examples include the new toilet blocks at Towneley Hall, Memorial Park, improvements to facilities at Queens Park and Burnley Bus Station. 6. Despite this investment there remain a number of old, outdated and inappropriately located conveniences where problems exist both in respect of inappropriate use and vandalism. 7. T oilets in parks are managed by Green Spaces and their use and development therefore needs to be considered in the context of their setting within the park, public usage of the same and the use of adjoining facilities such as bowling greens and http://sharepoint/CEO/Democracy/Executive/10-12-2013/PUBLIC TOILETS.doc tennis courts.

  • British Textile Biennial Programme 2019
    3RD OCTOBER —— 3RD NOVEMBER 2019 OF EVENTS PROGRAMME information visit the website at more details & programme For BRITISHTEXTILEBIENNIAL.CO.UK In my many years of working in the fashion industry, I’ve always celebrated the best of British textile traditions. It’s an industry that I love and admire and one that has been in my family for generations. It’s an industry alive with skill, passion and innovation; an industry with both an incredible history and an exciting future. I am delighted to be Patron of the British Textile Biennial to celebrate all of this and to ensure its future by encouraging young people to get engaged with making and manufacturing again. It’s important to Lancashire that the textile industry thrives because it provides great careers for thousands of people but also a great sense of connection with the past and a sense of pride.
