  • Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’S Cotton Frontier C.1890-1950
    Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’s Cotton Frontier c.1890-1950 By Jack Southern A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of a PhD, at the University of Central Lancashire April 2016 1 i University of Central Lancashire STUDENT DECLARATION FORM I declare that whilst being registered as a candidate of the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another aware of the University or other academic or professional institution. I declare that no material contained in this thesis has been used for any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ________________________________________________ Type of Award: Doctor of Philosophy School: Education and Social Sciences ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the evolution of identity and community within north east Lancashire during a period when the area gained regional and national prominence through its involvement in the cotton industry. It examines how the overarching shared culture of the area could evolve under altering economic conditions, and how expressions of identity fluctuated through the cotton industry’s peak and decline. In effect, it explores how local populations could shape and be shaped by the cotton industry. By focusing on a compact area with diverse settlements, this thesis contributes to the wider understanding of what it was to live in an area dominated by a single industry. The complex legacy that the cotton industry’s decline has had is explored through a range of settlement types, from large town to small village.

Following the Rishton CBM being given a community base inside Norden High School the Headteacher and myself met to discuss how it could be used to improve relationships between the police, the school and it’s pupils. Eastern communications received a high number of calls from the school and reducing this would be one obvious benefit. Area 7 has three towns, Great Harwood, Rishton and Clayton le Moors. The areas secondary education is served through a number of schools but one of these, Norden County High, is situated within Rishton and the majority of its pupils are from Great Harwood and Rishton. Pupils are from a varied social background but mainly from a lower social background. The main victim is the community. Others are the Police, School, young people and local businesses. The current system fails to bring together two organisations involved in a child’s upbringing. This creates barriers between the police, schools and the community whereby all pull in generally the same direction but without cohesion. Organisations and parents have a view that each should be in control of its own remit and use it’s own punishment/reward system. The reality is that problems are generally caused by the same people and to target these, as one, would have more effect.

  • Lancashire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    Lancashire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities first edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… Foreword written by: Bill Oddie OBE This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. Lancashire’s countryside has much to offer; from the gritstone fells of the Forest of Bowland to the sand dunes of the Sefton Coast. There are some great opportunities to view wildlife too, including red squirrels and hen harriers. It is more than worth taking that first step and getting yourself involved in your local countryside, regardless of your abilities. For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help us to encourage better access for all in the future. Published in Summer 2014 Using the Directory Throughout the Directory you will see some symbols. These are to help you see what kind of facilities or information is available.
