13. Management of Bury Park Community Centre AGENDA ITEM 13 EXECUTIVE DATE: 29 OCTOBER 2007 SUBJECT: MANAGEMENT OF BURY PARK COMMUNITY CENTRE REPORT BY: HEAD OF LEISURE AND COMMUNITY CONTACT OFFICER: PETER JONES 01582 546753 IMPLICATIONS: LEGAL 9 STAFFING 9 EQUALITIES 9 COMMUNITY SAFETY FINANCIAL 9 RISKS 9 OTHER CONSULTATIONS: COUNCILLORS CONSULTED SCRUTINY COMMITTEE CONSULTED STAKEHOLDERS CONSULTED OTHER WARDS AFFECTED: BISCOT LEAD EXECUTIVE MEMBER: COUNCILLOR M. ASHRAF RECOMMENDATION(S) 1. Executive is recommended to request officers: (i) to open discussions with the Dallow Development Trust, ward Members and other key community groups in Bury Park as noted in paragraph 6 of this report; and (ii) to report back the outcome of those discussions to a future meeting of the Executive. 13/1 REPORT Background 2. During the summer, the Head of Leisure and Community was approached informally by the Chair of the Dallow Development Trust to ascertain whether there was an opportunity for the Trust to take on the management of the Bury Park Community Centre. Having been apprised of the Trust’s intentions in respect of developing the use of the Centre for the benefit of the local community, it was suggested that the Council would need to respond to a formal approach by the Trust. Subsequently, the Dallow Development Trust Board has expressed its interest formally in the management of Bury Park Community Centre. No further discussions have yet taken place. Dallow Development Trust 3. Dallow Development Trust manages the Dallow Learning Community Centre in Dallow Road, Luton. The Trust was formed in 2000 with a view to developing the Dallow centre, which had been a long held aspiration for the neighbourhood and it was opened in 2003. Capital and revenue funding for the centre came from a variety of sources including the Council, but currently, the Council makes no contribution to the centre’s running costs save for some discretionary rate relief. The Dallow Learning Community Centre appears to have a thriving programme of community events and activities which has been delivered by the Trust in a ward which has extremely high levels of deprivation. Bury Park Community Centre 4. Bury Park Community Centre is one of eleven Council owned community centres and is managed by the council’s Community Development service. It is also in an area with high levels of deprivation. The centre’s current programme of activities and events is attached at Appendix A. The programme includes the key local services provided by the Council’s Library and Adult and Community Learning services. Current Adult and Community Learning provision is shown at Appendix B. 5. Prior to the restructure of the Community Development service early this year, the service had been working towards establishing a community trust to manage the Bury Park centre. This had involved working alongside a community trust group to build the necessary capacity within the group to assure the Council that the needs of the whole Bury Park community would continue to be met. This process had stalled whilst the service was undergoing restructuring, but is still a priority for development, as is the identification of opportunities to increase usage of the centre. The management (and ownership) of community assets is perceived as a key mechanism for generating community pride, greater community involvement in service delivery and increased levels of volunteering and community activity. If local authority investment is protected, then the additional activity created is a more efficient use of that investment. 13/2 Service Implications 6. Clearly, the management of the Bury Park Community Centre by the Dallow Development Trust would transfer the management to the community sector, which may generate some of the benefits noted above. Additionally, the Trust has some specific plans to increase use of the centre. In particular, the Trust has identified an unfulfilled demand for creation of business start up spaces in Biscot and Dallow. However, against this opportunity must be set the protection of existing users of the centre, including the Library and Adult and Community Learning programmes, the need to ensure that any developments are to the benefit of the local community, the need to involve the existing community trust group and ward Members in any discussion about the future of the centre and the need to properly consider and protect the interests and welfare of the Council’s staff who manage and operate the centre currently. 7. It is recommended that in the first instance, officers open separate and joint discussions with the Dallow Development Trust, the Bury Park community trust group and ward Members to discuss in more detail the aspirations and opportunities for development within the Bury Park Community Centre and how these might then align with the Council’s wider health and well being objectives. LEGAL IMPLICATIONS 8. Complex legal issues will need to be addressed if, following any negotiations, the Executive decides to pursue an outsourcing option for the management of, and the provision of services from, these premises. These legal implications have been agreed with Viv Mercer in Legal Services on 12 October 2007. STAFFING IMPLICATIONS 9. At this stage, there are no staffing implications. Full consultation will take place on any proposals that potentially affect employees arising from the discussions with Dallow Development Trust and other parties. EQUALITIES IMPLICATIONS 10. At this stage, there are no equality implications, although any proposals arising from discussions will need to undergo an equalities impact assessment. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 11. The proposal to open discussions with a variety of parties has no financial implications. This has been agreed by the Finance Manager (Housing and Community Living) on 11 October. 13/3 RISK IMPLICATIONS 12. At this stage, there are no risks to the Council. OPTIONS 13. In addition to the option recommended, the Executive could choose to take no action at this time and convey that decision to the Dallow Development Trust. APPENDIX 14.

This branch is closing – but your bank is always open This first booklet will help you understand why we’ve made the decision to close this branch. It also sets out the banking services and support that will be available to you after this branch has closed. In a second booklet, which will be available from the branch prior to it closing or online at home.barclays/ukbranchclosures, we'll share concerns and feedback from the local community. We'll also detail how we are helping people transition from using the branch with alternative ways to carry out their banking requirements. Here are the main reasons why the Leagrave is closing: • The number of counter transactions has gone down in the previous 24 months, and additionally 90% of our branch customers also use other ways to do their banking such as online and by telephone • Cust omers using other ways to do their banking has increased by 11% since 2015 • In the past 12 months, 67% of this branch's customers have been using nearby branches • We’ve identified that only 61 customers use this branch exclusively for their banking Proposals to close any branch are made by the Barclays local leadership teams and verified at a national level ahead of any closure announcement. If you have any questions and concerns about these changes then please feel free to get in touch with Michele Guerrini, your Market Director for Herts Beds & Bucks.
