It has been a privilege to serve this remarkable institution in Tthis time - a period which has encompassed quite extraordinary change, not least in the newly merged boroughs of Brighton and Hove being declared as a city. Such municipal status has been emblematic of an energy for development, on many fronts, that ushers in myriad schemes for building and conversion which the Regency Society and its officers have a distinct role to play in accessing the architectural merits and sensitivities of such change and growth. These are exciting, if challenging, times. The built environment of Brighton and Hove has emerged in phases of distinct and notable styles - from our eponymous Regency, through Victorian and Edwardian epochs, significant elements of 20th century modernism, the bold and sweeping educational expansion of the 1960s, which brought us the University of Sussex, and now a much heightened general interest in new architecture, and a revived celebratory status for a range of individual architects and their practices.

Although it must be noted that, due to competing project pressures faced by the event organizers, BHOD 12 offered some 30% less events than in recent years. • Assessing visitor numbers for 2012 is difficult, due in part to the very busy nature of some venues. However, it is thought that overall, despite the number of activities on offer being reduced for 2012, approximately 10,000- 11,000 visitors attended the event, approaching the numbers attained in recent years. • Media coverage for the event was good, with exposure in, The Argus, various local amenity magazines and weekly publications, BBC local radio, RadioReverb, and the Discovering Places website, which publicised the HODs listings as a part of London 2012’s Cultural Olympiad campaign.

  • The Pensioner Journal of Brighton & Hove Pensioner Action No
    1 Journal of the Brighton & Hove Pensioners’ Forum Journal of the Brighton & Hove Pensioners’ Forum 1 The Pensioner Journal of Brighton & Hove Pensioner Action No. 39, Summer 2011 Osborne’s budget issue this Inside – and reform of the state pension The Chancellor, George Osborne, delivered his Budget proposals on 23 March 2011, confirming many of the changes he had already announced. Sue Howley (Pensioner Action) details some of the points likely to be of interest to pensioners. Local news & BASIC STATE PENSION CHANGES information From 11 April 2011, the Basic State Retirement Pension rose from £97.65 to £102.15 per week for a single pensioner and from £156.15 to £163.35 for a couple, in line with increases in the Retail Price Index (RPI). However, as we reported in the Autumn 2010 issue of The Pensioner (page 4), future increases will be in line with the less favourable Consumer Price Index. Also, the currently high rate of inflation (not helped by the increase inValue Added Tax from 17.5% to 20% in January) has quickly eaten into any extra which pensioners may find in their pockets. The age addition for the over 80s remains at the insultingly low 25 pence per week! The Pension Credit Guarantee increased on 11 April from £132.60 to £137.35 per week for a single pensioner and from £202.40 to £209.70 per week for a couple, with the capital disregard (i.e. the maximum amount of savings Fabrica Gallery you can have and still claim) remaining at £10,000. - why not visit? WINTER FUEL PAYMENT REDUCTION The Government has said it will “protect” the Winter Fuel Payment but after the Budget, the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) made it clear that in 2011 the payment will revert from £250 to £200 for households with Double issue someone at or over the female State Pension Age and We’ve made this a double from £400 to £300 for households with someone aged issue and have a special 80 or over.
