    ST. BARNABAS CHURCH Browning Road, Manor Park, London E12 6PB T: 020 8472 2777 E: [email protected] www.stbarnabasmanorpark.co.uk PARISH PROFILE 2017 St Barnabas Church, Manor Park E12 PARISH PROFILE 2017 Parish Summary We are a diverse, friendly, inclusive congregation. We seek to love God and our neighbours in the spirit of the commandment given to us in the Gospel. Everyone from every background is welcomed at St Barnabas. Our Sunday Family Eucharist at 9:30am is our main service, which is relaxed but traditional in structure with a variety of music. We have a dynamic Sunday school and our children actively participate in the main service. Our focus is on sharing Communion in prayer and song, exploring Scripture, being of service and seeking fellowship in church, and bearing witness to the world. We are looking for a priest who will continue the catholic tradition of our parish as manifest by: 1. Our emphasis on the Eucharist as central to our worship; 2. The wearing of vestments in accordance to the liturgical seasons; 3. The celebration of the major feasts and saints’ days; 4. The complete cycle of Lent starting with Ash Wednesday, Stations of the Cross leading up to the great feast of Easter. We look forward to welcoming a thoughtful and energetic priest who will continue in our tradition. Our church building is large and beautiful – a surprise compared to its somewhat modest exterior. The building was designed by Sir Ninian Comper in partnership with William Bucknall at the beginning of the 20th Century. We have recently carried out major structural renovation, but more work is needed to make the building more flexible for greater community use, while maintaining the sacred space and the architectural heritage.

But our new research shows that many of London’s parks, and our enjoyment of them, are marred by traffic noise. Though 44% of the 885 London parks we surveyed are completely free from the sound of traffic, almost a third (29%) are severely impacted by noise from nearby roads.

  • Briefing Note Re Wanstead Flats Muster, Briefing and Deb-Briefing Centre Olympics London 2012
    Briefing note re Wanstead Flats Muster, Briefing and Deb-briefing Centre Olympics London 2012 Background During the Olympic and Paralympic Games millions of additional visitors will come to the Capital for the biggest sporting event which London and the UK has ever seen. During the Games, the Metropolitan Police Service will deploy a large number of officers across London in order to ensure the safety and security of the events, venues and crucially all residents_& visitors to the capital. A consistent daily briefing for all officers and staff policing the Games is a key requirement. These will be conducted in temporary briefing centres specially built for the Games period called Muster Briefing and Deployment Centres. This is a tried and tested part of policing operations - for example, used for a number of years at the Notting Hill Carnival. The briefing centres allow for the most up to date intelligence to be given to officers over staggered periods at the centre. During 2012 a number of events are taking place across whole of London. As this is a large geographical area, the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG), the Games organisers, have divided London into three zones of operation. We have developed our policing plans in line with this and identified a need for three temporary briefing centres. This includes one briefing centre to cover the Park Zone - the area around the Olympic Park, Victoria Park and Stratford. The location for this is the fairground area of Wan stead Flats. Further temporary briefing centres have been constructed at Blackheath Army Cadet Centre for the River Zone - the area around Greenwich, and Battersea Power Station for the Central Zone which includes Hyde Park, Horse Guards Parade & Wembley Following a public consultation concluding in November 2010, the MPS submitted a planning application to Redbridge Council for a temporary muster briefing and deployment centre on Wan stead Flats during the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

  • Walthamstow the Members of the Brigade Have Been Represented at an Inquiry Held Following Public Criticism ; and Elsewhere Membe
    38 Walthamstow the members of the brigade have been represented at an inquiry held following public criticism ; and elsewhere members have been represented in cases of a disciplinary character. Abortive efforts have been made at Croydon and Ilford for the establishment of the Two-Shift System, these being areas rather reactionary in character ; also at Willesden we are giving attention to the present scheme of duty; and at Dagenham we have secured the Two-Shift System of a proper basis of twelve-hour shifts (or equivalent ) with weekly leave day instead of the 24 hours about system with no leave day. Unfortunately this brigade has been exceedingly difficult to organise, and our present membership there is exceedingly low. Represen­ tations Were made at East Ham with regard to the pay of men engaged on special duties of Gamewell Fire Alarms, as to unappointed motor drivers being required to drive brigade vehicles and objecting to inclusion in a joint staff committee. At Wallsend an increase in pay of 7s. 6d. a Week for firemen was gained. At Bedwellty (Mon.) small increases in pay have been secured, but at Gellygaer we have been faced with this new type of committee. It has made its appearance also at Tottenham. In character this committee consists broadly of one-half representatives of the Council and one-half representing the employees ; and while in one case it is claimed that it not intended in any way to affect the ordinary Trade Union negotiation, yet in others it does appear to be calculated to form a buffer between the Trade Union and the Local Authority.
