  • Valuing Older People (VOP) – Culture Champions Scheme Evaluation
    Valuing Older People (VOP) – Culture Champions Scheme Evaluation 1. Introduction The Audience Agency was asked by the Valuing Older People (VOP) team to undertake the evaluation of the VOP Culture Champions scheme. This report illustrates the results from the evaluation. It introduces the scheme and the context within which it was developed. It reviews the role of the Culture Champions and their networks. It then moves onto a review of the events that have been organised as part of the scheme and the impact these have had on the success of the scheme itself. This evaluation will then review the scheme’s impact in terms of: • Encouraging older people in Manchester to engage with culture • Developing suitable provision at the cultural organisations involved in the scheme • Offering personal development opportunities for the Culture Champions Finally, the evaluation reviews improvements and development for the scheme suggested by the Culture Champions themselves. 1.1 Methodology We used three key methodologies to collect perspectives from stakeholders and participants in the project. • Surveys. We sent each Culture Champion a paper survey to fill in at home. With each paper survey we included a pre-stamped envelope for them to return the surveys free of cost. We sent all key contacts at participating cultural organisations a brief survey by email. At each Cultural Tour we asked all Culture Champions to fill in a survey at the end of the tour. • 1-2-1 interviews We conducted 1-2-1 interviews over the phone with a random sample of Culture Champions. • Focus group The VOPCO working group commissioned Big Art People to deliver a focus group with Culture Champions.

    4 Think of England Saturday Guardian 02.02.13 5 Calendar England: what’s on where and when Locals’GuideToManchester guardian.co.uk/travel/england The New York Times recently included Manchester in its top 50 places to visit in the world. No surprise to Mancunians, who have never been short of pride in a city that is home to two of Englands’s best football clubs, the BBC’s MediaCity, the Lowry and Imperial War Museum North. But it’s a city where the advice of a local can be crucial. The Hacienda hasn’t survived the past two decades of regeneration but Manchester still boasts England’s most innovative nightclub, the Warehouse Project, and its bohemian Northern Quarter has at least 20 record shops, plus galleries, live venues, bars and restaurants, and some great clothes shops.

  • Manchester's Radical History How Hyde
    7/1/2021 Manchester's Radical History – Exploring Greater Manchester's Grassroots History Manchester's Radical History Exploring Greater Manchester's Grassroots History NOVEMBER 30, 2013 BY SARAH IRVING How Hyde ‘Spymasters’ looked for Commies on BBC Children’s Hour By Derek Paison Salford born folk singer and song- writer Ewan MacColl is remembered today more for his music than his agit-prop plays. But it was his political activities before the last war and his membership of the Communist Party that led to MI5 opening a file on him in the 1930s and why they kept him, and his friends, under close surveillance. Secret service papers released by the national archives, now in Ashton-under-Lyne central library, offer a clue into how British intelligence (MI5) spied on working-class folk singer Ewan MacColl and his wife playwright, Joan Lilewood, who lived at Oak Coage on Higham Lane, Hyde, Cheshire, during World War II. MI5 opened a file on James Henry Miller (MacColl’s real name) in the early 1930s when he was living in Salford. As an active Communist Party member, he had been involved in the unemployed workers’ campaigns and in the mass trespass of Kinder Scout in Derbyshire. Before enlisting in the army in July 1940, he had wrien for the radio programme Children’s Hour. In Joan Lilewood’s autobiography, she writes: “Jimmie was registered at the Labour Exchange as a motor mechanic, but he did beer busking, singing Hebridean songs to cinema queues. Someone drew Archie Harding’s aention to him and from that time on he appeared in the North Region’s features (BBC) whenever a ‘proletarian’ voice was needed.” As a BBC presenter for Children’s Hour and Communist Party member, Lilewood also came under the watch of MI5.

  • Carnegie Council
    RRTRBILITV D I ARY 1ARTABILITY' -A DIARY This is an attempt to put down chronologically the events surrounding the doomed Artability Conference which had been due to take place in Manchester 22-24th, September, 1986. Glossary. Coalit ion = Greater Manchester Coalition of Disabled People; an organisation of disabled people whose management committee and workers are all disabled. DPSG = Disabled Peoples Steering Group; this is a sub committee of Manchester City Council's Equal Opportunities Committee. Its Members are all delegates of disabled controlled organisations in Manchester, and as a body it makes policy on disability issues which are then carried out by the Equal Opportunites (disabled) workers in the council's Equal Opportunities Unit. BCODP = British Council of Organisations of Disabled People; both the Coalition and the DPSG are members of this national organisation which brings together all those organisations controlled by disabled people. Artability » as well as the title of the conference this was also the name of the planning sub-committee of the Carnegie Council. The Council had been set up by the Carnegie Trust following the 'Attenborough Report' on Arts and Disabled People, published after a committee of enquiry, in 1985. Numbers in brackets will refer to numbered documents. (1) 18 Oct 1985; Artability Committee meets at Palace Theatre, Manchester. I don't whether this was the first meeting of this committee. Of the 7 members listed, as far as I know none were disabled. An outline of the proposed dates and timetable for the conference was attached to the agenda, so obviously some work had gone into it already.
