Then, because Easter is quite late this year, we have an interlude of ordinary ‘green’ Sundays before Lent begins on 1 March. In the days of the Prayers Book Calendar we had the three ‘Gesimas’ before Lent, Septuagesima, Sexagesima and Quinquagesima, which counted us down to Lent and reminded us to make our preparations. Now we have the much less excitingly named ‘Sundays before Lent’. Perhaps you might to use February to pre-plan Lent, then when it comes upon us suddenly on 1st March, you will be geared up and ready. Some people give something up, some take something up, some do both. In the introduction to the Ash Wednesday service the Celebrant says I invite you, therefore, in the name of the Church, to the observance of a holy Lent, by self-examination and repentance; by prayer, fasting and self-denial; and by reading and meditating on God's holy word. That gives us three options: more focus upon and attention to prayer—we can, I am sure, all do with that; giving things up, not just so we might feel a righteous sense of achievement, but so we might make more space for God; reading the Bible and studying it with others. As you think about what your Lenten Discipline, think about what will help you, in this season, to simplify your life and make more time and space for God. Holy Communion on Ash Wednesday will be at Huntley at 7:00 p.m. Details of this year’s Lent Study Course will be on the Notice Sheet in due course. A friend in Monmouthshire recently sent me a photo of the glorious snowdrops in his garden. I am now eagerly awaiting my own, which seem to be very behind those Welsh ones. The carpet of snowdrops in Ploddy Wood on the road to Newent always seem to be the first round here, but, as yet, there is no sign there. They shouldn’t be long now, and they always, for me, mark the fact that Spring is not far off. All my own snowdrops are gifts from parishioners after I put out a plea in my first year. Like all plant gifts they always have something special about them, as I remember the donors as well as enjoying the flowers. 5 Forest Edge Group of Churches—Services for February/ March 2017 [See page 8 for readings] Date Bulley Churcham Huntley Longhope May Hill 5 February 11am 11am 9.30am 9.30am 4th Sunday Morning Worship Holy Holy Morning before Lent at Churcham Communion Communion Worship Green MR CS/SF CS MR 12 February 11am 9.30am 9.30am 9.30am 3rd Sunday Holy Holy 6pm Holy Family Service before Lent Communion Communion Evensong Communion CE Green CS CS JC 19 February 10am 11am 9.30am 9.30am 2nd Sunday 11am Family Holy Holy Morning before Lent Morning Service Communion Communion Worship Green Worship BH RS CS/MR CS/BH MR 26 February 9.30am 9.30am 11am 11am 9.30am Sunday next Holy Morning Holy Morning Morning before Lent Communion Worship Communion Worship Worship Green CS/MR BH CS/BH MR JC 5 March 11am 9.30am 9.30am 11am 1st Sunday of Holy Holy Morning Morning Worship at Bulley Lent Communion Communion Worship MR Purple CS/BF CS MR 6 Baptismal Birthdays Churcham And Bulley Huntley Longhope ~ Jack Henry Matthews ~ Bethany May Lancett The Roll of Honour!

  • Unemployment Bulletin Issue 147 October 2020
    Unemployment Bulletin Issue 147 October 2020 Notes on Claimant Count (Experimental Statistics) from ONS: These Claimant Count Experimental Statistics relate to 8 October 2020. Enhancements to Universal Credit as part of the UK government's response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) mean that an increasing number of people became eligible for unemployment-related benefit support, although still employed. Consequently changes in the Claimant Count will not be wholly because of changes in the number of people who are unemployed. We are not able to identify to what extent people who are employed or unemployed have affected the numbers. Contents The Claimant Count is a measure of the number of people who are unemployed and claiming benefits. From 1996 until the recent introduction Part 1: Summary 1 of Universal Credit, this was based on the number of people claiming A summary of unemployment Jobseeker’s Allowance. However, since its introduction some unemployment data at district, County, benefit claimants will be claiming Universal Credit instead. To reflect this regional and national level change, the Claimant Count has been expanded to include people claiming Part 2: County 3 Jobseeker's Allowance plus those who claim Universal Credit and who are Unemployment figures for the searching for work. County compared to the South West and the rest of Gloucestershire is in the process of transitioning to full Universal Credit. This the UK means a broader span of claimants will be required to look for work than Part 3: Districts 4 previously under Jobseekers Allowance. As more people are brought within A comparative break down of the coverage of Universal Credit, the Claimant Count is set to rise noticeably unemployment figures by over time.

  • Summer 2018 All Freetext Comments from Engagement Survey
    Outcome of Engagement Report – Summer 2018 All freetext comments from engagement survey respondents I think that the new community hospital should be in or near Cinderford because: It is central to the forest It is the most accessible part of the forest when there is severe weather. It is a central location within the forest, with good connections to other areas of the forest and wider Gloucestershire. It would make transferring between hospitals easier for patients. as part of my work role I cover the Forest of Dean currently based at the Dilke, on a one hour response time I can be anywhere in the Forest within this time frame based in either Coleford or Cinderford its central to North Forest - Maisemore, Corse, etc. More of a community area. This seems a better option as it is central to the forest and would be accessible to many. it would be in our locality and easiest to reach. It has good communications and is closest to my locality ITS CENTRAL TO THE WHOLE FOD CATCHMENT AREA Cinderford is a central location for residents across the FOD, when you take in locations in the Forest such as Newent, Coleford or Lydney would be too far to travel. It is in the most central location, with reasonably good public transport. If it was in Lydney this would be difficult for some people to access, especially people from Newent and surrounding areas. It is situated centrally between Lydney and Gloucester Central to the Forest. Close to area of high deprivation who may otherwise struggle to access healthcare.
