It provides robust data that reflects the perceptions of Area 7 residents on key quality of life, anti social behaviour and corporate satisfaction indicators/figures 2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS IT IS RECOMMENDED that the Committee: − Note the Area 7 findings − Note that Council Departments will analyse the data presented by Mori and integrate them into their service planning processes for 2006/2007 − Note that information from the survey is to be used to develop the Community Plan. 3 BACKGROUND INFORMATION 3.1 In October/November 2005 MORI undertook Nottingham’s 2 nd Residents survey. The Council worked in partnership with One Nottingham who wished to engage city residents as part of the safer and stronger communities’ strand of Neighbourhood Renewal, focussing on local communities’ quality of life. In total 2,033 City residents took part of these 207 are Area 7 residents. 3.2 It is worth noting that the survey dealt with residents’ perceptions at the time the survey was conducted rather than facts . Residents’ perceptions, therefore, may not accurately represent the level and quality of services that are currently provided in Area 7 and Nottingham as a whole. One of the challenges will be to link these perceptions with other data that is available, for example, performance indicators or other measurements of service quality.

  • Maid Marian Maid Marian Fitzwalter Was Born in 1173 at the Old Bilborough Hall, Which Is Now Harvey Hadden Leisure Centre
    Maid Marian Maid Marian Fitzwalter was born in 1173 at the old Bilborough Hall, which is now Harvey Hadden Leisure Centre. It was Marian’s family who had commissioned the building of St Martins church in Bilborough, near where they lived, to be built – a project which Little John had worked on a site labourer. Marian was a free spirit. Rejecting her family’s status and wealth, she spent more time with the regular folk in Bilborough or in the nearby deer park at Wollaton than with the landed aristocracy. It is during this time she met a young Robin, who was living in the area. They remained friends whilst Robin was away during the Crusades. It is during this time that Marian was promised to be married to Eustachius de Moreton, Lord of Wollaton and Algarthorpe (in modern day Basford). Marian was not happy with the match and broke off the engagement, waiting for Robin to return. Eustachius, unhappy that Marian had broken it off, challenged her to a horse race from Algarthorpe to Woodthorpe, the finish line now where the house in Woodthorpe Park stands. Marian won easily and the chided Eustachius returned to Basford. When Robin returned, the two fell in love and she quickly became an important ally in the fight against the evil Sherriff. She was an able spy and lockpick who would help Robin and his outlaw companions whilst still appearing to be a lady of the court. She could pass through Nottingham and its Castle as she pleased, gleaning useful information. Marian received many the scornful look as she cheered on the disguised Robin during the Golden Arrow competition on what is now the Forest Recreation ground and remained to see Robin and his companions share the spoils of his win with the people of Hyson Green.

  • Interesting to Know November 2020
    November 2020 Chaplains visit people in their place of work to offer friendship and to listen. Their support is unconditional, non-judgemental, independent and confidential. Interesting to Know.......... The man who revolutionised public transport in Nottingham is to retire. Mark Fowels joined Nottingham City Transport in 1994 and took over as MD in 2001 and following a successful bid, also assumed the role of the Chairman of the Arrow Consortium which re-introduced trams to Nottingham in 2004. Flexible workspace provider Cuba has opened a second venue in Nottingham. The latest is on King Street providing office space, co-working space with hot desks, designated desks, meeting rooms and an in-house barista over four floors. Work to maintain and enhance the look of Trent Bridge – one of the key gateways to the city – has been completed. Nottingham’s Business Improvement District has secured a new five year term. It has received backing from the businesses of the city to continue its work over the next five years from 2021-2025. More city centre living opportunities. Part of the conference facilities of the St James Hotel in the city centre are to be converted into 14 apartments. Vertu Motors has added to its portfolio in Nottingham with the acquisition of the Kia Nottingham dealership in Old Basford from Sandicliffe. The transaction will bring the number of outlets operated by the Group in Nottingham to nine. The new Broadmarsh Car Park development is on course to open in the spring or summer next year. Last month BioCity, the pioneering life science incubator and business collective, supported by education charity Ignite! brought together ninety students from five local secondary schools, to celebrate the legacy of the celebrated Nottingham mathematician, Ada Lovelace, to inspire young women into STEM careers.

By focusing on one particular city, Nottingham, I formulate an analysis of the place that cinema has occupied in the city's history. Utilising the local press as the primary source enables me to situate the discourses on the cinema building and the practice of cinema-going within the broader socio-cultural contexts and history of the city.
