CCPR This inquiry into Community Sport, with emphasis on the development of grassroots sport and participation by all members of the community, is warmly welcomed by the CCPR, which is the umbrella body for 270 UK/GB and English national voluntary organisations for sport and recreation, including the national governing bodies1. CCPR’s member organisations collectively account for approximately 13 million sports club memberships (around 8 million active participants) and around 5 million volunteers. CCPR member interests encompass all competitive and recreational sports and activities, from highly competitive, institutionalised sport, to movement, dance, mind games and outdoor and adventurous activities; and include almost all of the voluntary organisations promoting their primary purposes through sport (eg youth sector, local authorities, physical education and education, military and uniformed services sports divisions and professional organisations). The CCPR membership also plays a huge role in supporting the policy outcomes of many central government departments. For a summary of these contributions by CCPR member organisations, see the CCPR “Red Book for Sport and Recreation”, published last month, immediately before the budget (available from: www.ccpr.org.uk/dyncat.cfm?catid%16737). CCPR has a strategic relationship with Business in Sport and Leisure, the umbrella body for commercial and private organisations and companies delivering sport and recreation. 2. Community sport “Community Sport” is taken to mean that provision which takes place outside and beyond the formal school system, at local level within people’s own communities. There is an obvious synergy between the focus of this Inquiry and the interests and concerns of the CCPR membership. 3. The Role of CCPR: Protecting and Promoting the Interests of Voluntary Sector Sport and Recreation As well as providing a forum for sharing experience and good practice and acting as a consultee to government and its agencies, the role of the CCPR is to protect and promote the interests of voluntary sector sport and recreation, including the national governing bodies. This is achieved both through providing information and development services which help membership organisations build the capacity to respond to changing legal, regulatory and strategic requirements; and through its policy work, whose intention is to influence and steer policy and strategy so that the interests of voluntary sector sport and recreation are protected and promoted. CCPR’s preferred approach is always to be in a position to analyse policy or emerging legislation at an early enough stage to be able to influence its development and drafting. This, however, depends either on the eVectiveness of the consultation process; or on CCPR’s ability to recognise, early enough, the implications of proposed changes in legislation, regulation or policy. Since this requires 1 For more information, see www.ccpr.org.uk or telephone CCPR on 020 7854 8500, or E mail adminwccpr.org.uk 3049212001 Page Type [E] 14-05-05 01:46:48 Pag Table: COENEW PPSysB Unit: 1PAG Ev 2 Culture, Media and Sport Committee: Evidence knowledge of the activities of around 17 central government departments or their agencies, this is a demanding task! The policy work of the CCPR is valued highly by its members and is best represented by the monthly Policy Update which is distributed to members and available more generally on the CCPR website. 3(i) Recent examples of CCPR’s role in promoting the interests of its members: (a) Drawing attention to the contributions and needs of the NGBs and voluntary sector sport and recreation in national strategy. “Game Plan”, the Government’s national strategy for sport, acknowledged that Government itself does not (and cannot) deliver sport and recreation, but depends on four major delivery sectors to do so—the voluntary, education, commercial and local government sectors. The strategy was, however, silent on the nature and scope of provision by each of these four sectors; and there was (and remains, with the exception of physical education and school sport) no strategic approach to building the capacity of these sectors to continue and extend the opportunities they provide to people and their communities. CCPR regards this as the most serious gap in thinking at national level, and in November 2004 it issued a Challenge to the Next Government, which suggested measures which could be taken to secure concrete outcomes which would strengthen the capacity of each of these sectors and enable them to do more. The CCPR Challenge focuses on all four of the delivery sectors for sport and recreation (see later section on national strategy), but specifically outlines measures which would support the existing and potential contributions of the national governing bodies and the voluntary sector: — Recognise and celebrate the core provision and added value which national governing bodies and their clubs bring to the system; — Double the current Exchequer funding for sport and recreation; — Invest in voluntary organisations and clubs and their volunteers, and provide learning credits; — Protect volunteers and their organisations from trivial and unnecessary regulation and legislation. (b) Evidence of the contribution of voluntary sector sport and recreation to the active citizenship and volunteering agenda. Through its relationships with the wider voluntary sector and the Active Communities Directorate in the Home OYce, CCPR was aware that the massive contribution of national governing bodies (NGBs), national sports organisations (NSOs), their clubs and volunteers to this agenda was virtually invisible—both in sport policy and in voluntary sector policy. The CCPR was aware from the existing research that 26% of all volunteering takes place in sport and recreation—the biggest single arena for volunteering to take place—most of it, under the aegis of the national governing bodies and their clubs. An independent research study was therefore commissioned by CCPR to record and show evidence of this contribution2. The study has been invaluable in raising awareness and the profile of sport and recreation in Home OYce thinking, and helping NGBs to recognise their own (often taken- for-granted) contribution to this important area of government policy. (c) Social capital: Following from the above study, and from a national seminar series funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, the CCPR decided to extend data collection on the promotion of the value of NGBs and NSOs by commissioning the Carnegie Institute at Leeds Metropolitan University to construct a framework for evaluating NGBs’ and NSOs’ social capital. This was done, because there seemed to be little recognition across sports strategy of the crucial importance of the sector in sports provision. Voluntary sector sport and recreation is unique, in being the only sector whose primary purpose and responsibility is the delivery and development of sport and recreation. It therefore provides a continuity of purpose, strength of belief and range of local community involvement which simply cannot be matched by the other delivery sectors.

  • Arthur Atkinson
    Arthur Atkinson Arthur Atkinson was born on April 5,1906 at 12 Alfred Street, Castleford, just off Wheldon Road, where the now demolished Nestle's factory used to be. The 1911 Census however shows the family residing in Radcliffe, Lancashire and Arthur, then aged 5, at school there. Fortunately for Castleford fans however Arthur, at least, returned to Castleford. Legend has it that Arthur was behind the posts one day at Castleford's old ground at Sandy Desert, Lock Lane, when he fielded the ball and with expert ease punted or drop-kicked it back into the field of play and that a certain Mr Walter Smith saw a potential star in the making. Arthur signed for the club in 1926 as they made their introduction into the Rugby Football League and made his debut for the first team in their fifth match, away at Rochdale, on Saturday 11 September, 1926 when they lost 33-5. Arthur quickly made his mark in the side and scored his first try against Halifax the following month although Cas were destined to finish bottom of the league in their first season. Displaying strong qualities of leadership at an early age, he was appointed captain in the 1928-29 season, a role he retained until his retirement in 1942. His form that season alerted selectors to his abilities and he made his debut for Yorkshire, becoming the first Castleford player to gain such an honour, in the game against Glamorgan and Monmouth at Cardiff, going on to earn 14 caps for his county and became Castleford's first full international in that same season, eventually playing six times for England and ten times for Great Britain, including two tours to Australasia, for whom he scored five tries, and there were clear signs of what was to come as the team reached the semi final of the Challenge Cup, the first year that the final was to be played at Wembley.

  • New Ministerial Team at the Department of Health
    New Ministerial Team at the Department of Health The Rt Hon Alan Johnson MP Secretary of State for Health Alan Johnson was first elected to Parliament in 1997 as the Member for Kingston upon Hull. A former postman, Alan Johnson served as a former General Secretary of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) and is one of the largest trade union names to have entered Parliament in recent decades. Often credited with the much coveted tag of being an "ordinary bloke", he is highly articulate and effective and is credited with the successful campaign that deterred the previous Conservative government from privatising the Post Office. Popular among his peers, Alan Johnson is generally regarded to be on the centre right of the Labour Party and is well regarded by the Labour leadership. As a union member of Labour's ruling NEC (up to 1996) he was seen as supportive of Tony Blair's attempts to modernise the Labour Party. He was the only senior union leader to back the abolition of Labour's clause IV. He becomes the first former union leader to become a cabinet minister in nearly 40 years when he is appointed to the Work and Pensions brief in 2004. After moving to Trade and Industry, he becomes Education and Skills Secretary in May 2006. After being tipped by many as the front-runner in the Labour deputy leadership contest of 2007, Alan Johnson was narrowly beaten by Harriet Harman.
