We are working to deploy a voice botsolution within Huntingdonshire District council, the aim of the bot is to provide voice based access to the FAQ content on our customer portal so there is a non-digital channel to getto the FAQ content for our customers. We are thinking primarily of those who wish to pick up the phone rather than go online. This work is primarily LGA funded with a mind for digital inclusion for the older communityin our district so they have access to the same information that our other customers can get online. We were initially looking to do some User research testing sessions to assess ifthe product we currently have is viable and what improvements can be made before we go live. Unfortunately, due to the Covid19 pandemic, we have been unable to carry these sessions out. As an alternative, we are looking to recruitmembers from the older community to take part in over the phone surveys and potential user testing. I was hoping there would be someone within your organisation who could pointme in the right direction as to how Icould contact people you feel would be interested in taking part. Any help you cang ive would be greatly appreciated. Lauren Adams Recovery Officer Huntingdonshire District Council 01480 388030 [email protected] 5 The Stukeleys HeritageGroup We were due to meet in July to hear Mike Petty talk about the 1947 floods. However, given the current Covid 19 situation I have decided it is too soon to return to meetings, so I have cancelled this meeting, and also the planned trip to Colchester in September. The next meeting could be November, but we will need to review the position nearer the time. In the meantime, we have had VE Day, so I wondered if we could share stories about the Second World War. It would be a pity to lose those stories, which could be about people or places. So please email or write or phone and I will try to capture them. Given that many of us have come into our villages from further afield such experiences need not be just local. You may also have stories handed down from older family or friends who are no longer with us, in which case please include themas well. Another set of stories mightbeour experiences during the Covid 19 pandemic and howit has affected our lives. Are there local heroes helping others which we could record? Let’s share as a community! And look out for our forthcoming new Facebook page....

In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’.

  • The Cult of St Æthelwold and Its Context, C. 984 - C
    The Cult of St Æthelwold and its Context, c. 984 - c. 1400 Rebecca Browett Institute of Historical Research School of Advanced Study, University of London A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Ph.D in History September 2016 1 Declaration This thesis is submitted to the University of London in support of my application for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. I, Rebecca Browett, hereby confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own, carried out during the course of my studies. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the consent of the author. Signed: Date: 2 Abstract This thesis documents the cult of St Æthelwold, a tenth-century bishop of Winchester, from its inception (c. 984) until the late Middle Ages. During his life, Æthelwold was an authoritative figure who reformed monasteries in southern England. Those communities subsequently venerated him as a saint and this thesis examines his cult at those centres. In particular, it studies how his cult enabled monasteries to forge their identities and to protect their rights from avaricious bishops. It analyses the changing levels of veneration accorded to Æthelwold over a five hundred year period and compares this with other well-known saints’ cults. It uses diverse evidence from hagiographies, chronicles, chartularies, poems, church dedications, wall paintings, and architecture. Very few studies have attempted to chart the development of an early English saint's cult over such a long time period, and my multidisciplinary approach, using history, art, and literary studies, offers insight into the changing role of native saints in the English church and society over the course of the Middle Ages.
