A young student from the Corby Business Academy had been the first to receive the Gold Children’s University Award. The Chairman invited Mr Tom Woodward to the front of the chamber stating he had completed many activities outside of his normal curriculum, especially in art where he had a particular skill. He had created canvasses for the Art & Library Department, a short animation video on the problem of global warming and most recently carved a totem pole. He had never felt able to achieve a Bronze Award let alone the Gold. He had completed 100 hours of activities outside of his normal school day and would be attending the next graduation ceremony in July. The Chairman then presented Mr Woodward with his certificate, congratulating him on behalf of the Council. The Chairman then gave details of the various events she had attended on behalf of the Council highlighting: Her thanks to all those who attended the Civic Service at which the sum of £542 was raised towards her two charities. The opening of Wiliam Wake House which was a medium secure facility at St Andrews Hospital which provided specialist services for men with various adult mental health issues. The Northamptonshire Carers Award Ceremony which that year was presented to a young carer. The Helen and Douglas House Candlemas Service at Christchurch Cathedral in Oxford to raise funds in support of supporting families of children and young adults with life shortening conditions. The Sea Cadets Centre in Beckets Park in February at which the Cadets were presented with letters of recognition before demonstrating their skills both in the water and on shore. An antiques valuation day would be held on Saturday 7 May 2011 in the Sessions House at which valuers would be able to provide valuations. Blue Badge Representatives would also be providing information on the history of the Sessions House to those waiting to receive a valuation. The Deputy Chairman highlighted the 70th anniversary of the Banbury Squadron of the Air Training Corps (ATC) noting the ATC had 35,000 members in the country all aged 13-20 years in over 1,000 squadrons which were supported by over 10,000 staff and many civilians. They organised the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme and members could learn to fly gliders and power gliders, often flying solo at aged 17. 50% of air crew pilots and 40% of RAF officers were ex-cadets. At the Chairman’s invitation, Councillor Marion Minney then read out a letter received from Mr Cyril Stewart, Honorary Chairman of the Gordon Roberts Memorial Trust, in support of the Performing Arts & Music Service. It acknowledged the support of NCC during a period of gradual withdrawal of funding which would enable the Service to form its own governance structures. 21/11 Petitions: None received. 22/11 Presentations: (a) Northamptonshire Young Leaders: The Chairman introduced Adam Gravely, Hayley Hall, Jon Reynolds and Kelly Stubbs who gave a presentation on their work as Northamptonshire Young Leaders, highlighting the following: Apologies were given from the Northamptonshire Young Leader, Rachel Goulbourn who had exams at college. The role of the young leaders and members of the UK Youth Parliament (UKYP) had included representing young people to NCC, providing a positive image of young people and provide a voice to young people as constituents. The young leaders project had been a very successful and positive experience for all those who took part and Council was thanked for providing the opportunity. The sum of £25,000 had been provided as part of the project for the young leaders to allocate to groups/organisations that they felt supported the main issues for young people in the county. Following a countywide consultation and tendering process funds were provided to organisations addressing issues relating to stress, discrimination, support of young parents and political education as follows: £9,000 to Northamptonshire Voluntary Youth Action (NVYA) for stress £4,000 to NVYA for discrimination £6,000 to FAIR in Rushden £6,000 to a political education project in Rushmere Academy, Northampton. The Stress and discrimination projects would be countywide services. The political education project would assist young people in understanding how much politics affected their day to day life. It would include a day conference with a number of workshops and sessions and key note speakers. FAIR was a project supporting young parents, raising a positive image of young parents in the county and providing them with key skills such as understanding their baby’s needs. UKYP Members had benefitted from working at a local, regional and national level including participation in a debate in the House of Commons. This had included several key speakers in the issues young people had voted to be of most concern – sex education in schools and the war in Afghanistan. It was also broadcast by the BBC. The Prime Minister had noted the work of the UKYP as excellent and valued. Members welcomed the opportunity to promote the positive work of Northamptonshire and ensure young people were involved in democracy and making Northamptonshire a place where young people excelled. The Young Leaders Group had held regular meetings and addressed real life issues. Their consultation had received 582 replies from young people. Good training had been provided and the process had been very well led with effective and enjoyable meetings. Each of the youth members then stated what they had enjoyed and learned as follows: Adam felt he had developed many skills enabling him to actively participate in society. He had worked with a diverse group of people and excellent youth leaders. Jon felt he had gained a more mature outlook on the working of the county, its towns and the country. He had witnessed important decisions and how they were made. Kelly appreciated the opportunity to be treated like an adult, trusted with a large sum of money to allocate to worthy causes.

    52 Christchurch Road Abington | Northampton | NN1 5LN 52 CHRISTCHURCH ROAD This extremely attractive mid-terrace family home enjoys a superb park side setting just a few minutes from the bustling town centre of Northampton. “The house was designed in 1923 by Alex Anderson who was a colleague of renowned architect Rennie Mackintosh, and it’s a property that my wife and I had admired for many years before we were lucky enough to own it,” says David. “We would often pass by on our way to Abington Park, which is just across the road, and we always said that if it ever came onto the market we wouldn’t hesitate to put in an offer. It was on one of those walks in 2002 that we noticed the For Sale sign so we immediately booked in a viewing and purchased the house just a few weeks later, and we’ve loved every minute of our time here.” A beautifully presented three storey mid terraced house lo- cated on one of the most sought after and prestigious roads in Abington with direct views overlooking Abington Park. The house was built in the 1920's designed by Alexander Anderson and unusually still retains all its period original features includ- ing leaded glass windows and fireplaces, it has been extended and modernised over the years with a superb family kitchen/ dining room and a third floor master bedroom with access to a roof terrace. On the ground floor is a welcoming entrance hallway with the original staircase and tiled floor. There are two separate reception rooms, the sitting room to the front has a deep bay window, original fireplace and built in cupboards, the dining room to the rear again has its original features, fireplace and doors opening to the rear garden.

Some have even been placing tenants in converted outbuildings or vacant commercial premises. This behaviour can have a huge impact on neighbourhoods increasing refuse, noise and in some cases antisocial behaviour and also places pressure on local services. The Administration is committed to working to address these problems alongside other agencies and is currently recruiting additional team members to show our commitment to achieving zero tolerance. Council notes the work being done by the housing and homelessness charity, Shelter, and supports Shelter’s Evict Rogue Landlords campaign and commits to doing all we can to stamp out rogue landlords in our local authority”.
