Briefing Paper the Big Society: News from the Frontline in Eden August
AWICS Independence…..Integrity.….Value Adrian Waite (In dependent Consultancy Services) Limited Briefing Paper The Big Society: News from the Frontline in Eden August 2010 Introduction The government’s ‘Big Society’ project was launched by David Cameron in Liverpool on 19th July 2010. As part of this, four areas have been identified as Vanguard Communities where it is intended to ‘turn government completely on its head’. These areas are Eden, Liverpool, Sutton and Windsor & Maidenhead. David Cameron said: “My great passion is building the Big Society. Anyone who’s had even a passing interest in what I’ve been saying for years will know that. “The ‘Big Society’ is…something different and bold… It’s about saying if we want real change for the long-term, we need people to come together and work together – because we’re all in this together. “(We want) Neighbourhoods who are in charge of their own destiny, who feel if they club together and get involved they can shape the world around them. “If you’ve got an idea to make life better, if you want to improve your local area, don’t just think about it – tell us what you want to do and we will try and give you the tools to make this happen.” David Cameron outlined what are to be the three major strands of Big Society which include: “First, social action. The success of the Big Society will depend on the daily decisions of millions of people – on them giving their time, effort, even money, to causes around them. So government cannot remain neutral on that – it must foster and support a new culture of voluntarism, philanthropy, social action. -

A LAKE DISTRICT CUPBOARD Noel Riley
A LAKE DISTRICT CUPBOARD Noel Riley Until recently, the splendid three-tiered cupboard illustrated in figure i was built into a farm-house in Calthwaite, near Penrith, Cumbria where it had been a fixture for many years. Such pieces, in a domestic setting, can provide useful clues to the identification of other furniture from the same region. But caution must be exercised in using them as yardsticks: their regionality may be broader than first impressions suggest. When first acquired by its present owner in Yoxford, Suffolk, the cupboard was in unrestored condition, with about four layers of dark paint and a top coat of black pitch-like varnish on all its outer surfaces except the top, back and one end. These paint layers were thought to date from the early nineteenth century and later. The back was whitewashed, while the top and end were ‘raw’, with no evidence of paint, polish or exposure to light. The existence of so many paint layers on the rest of the piece indicates that it must have been fixed in the house for many generations, possibly for the whole of its existence. In his introduction to the catalogue for the exhibition Oak Furniture from Lancashire and the Lake District at Temple Newsam in 1973,1 Anthony Wells- Cole drew attention to the large numbers of surviving cupboards relative to other kinds of furniture recorded in the Royal Commission on Historic Monuments Inventory of Westmorland in 1936. Nearly all of them date from between 1650 and 1720 when, during a period of stability and agricultural prosperity in the region, large numbers of stone houses were built and furnished. -
