Date of 2017 AGM – Wednesday June 28th. 2017. There was then a presentation on the Japanese World Jamboree by Mark Thompson, Darren Storey and a couple of Explorers. District Chairman’s Report This completed Scouting year has been one of great contrasts. There have been the high points with excellent activities that are reported elsewhere by the sections, great adventures undertaken, countless achievements made as well as periods of great sadness with the passing of dear Scouting friends. Thank you to Tony Keay the outgoing County Commissioner for all he did for us all. His successor, Dean Smith, began work on 1st September 2016 and a week later he had appointed Lee Jones as a Deputy County Commissioner. We wish them and the rest of the new County Team, which has since been expanded, every success in their future endeavours. Good luck to our own Tom Althorpe (ACC cubs) and Daniel Manciocchi (County Youth Commissioner) in their new County roles. Glendon was the first District in the County to have its own Youth Commissioner. The present incumbent, Connor Mehew, and the young people of his excellent team have together made great progress in the work relating to the Vision 2018 initiative. Through their forums the expectation is that there will be continuous feed back to the ADC Teams saying what it is the young people of the Groups are looking for and would like in their Scouting.

  • EARLY HELP and PREVENTION Children's Centre Venues
    Agenda Item No: 09 – Appendix B EARLY HELP AND PREVENTION Children’s Centre Venues Consultation Response Analysis Report Author Sheila Sturgeon, Policy and Projects Officer, Early Help and Prevention Date 5th January 2015 1. Introduction 1.1. It is proposed that we make changes to the opening hours of some Children’s Centres, and in five cases, to the venues being used for some universal and for targeted Children’s Centre services. 1.2. Earlier this year our new model of delivering Children’s Centres came into effect, following extensive consultation over 12 weeks in the summer of 2013, which was supportive of the new model, and a commissioning process in the spring of this year 1. As a result, some of the services previously found in Children’s Centres are now delivered from our 36 libraries, and early help targeted Children’s Centre services to families in need of additional support are delivered by commissioned providers. 1.3. The early help targeted Children’s Centre services have been using all designated venues alongside universal services from our health and JobCentre Plus partners. The providers of our targeted services (Action for Children and Spurgeons) will spend much more time with families and children in and nearer to their homes and this means that they want to deliver less in the Children’s Centre buildings. To achieve this we propose to change the hours that some buildings are open , and to move services to entirely new venues in a very small number of cases. 1.4. NCC has a statutory duty to consult upon ‘major changes’ to the Children’s Centre provision 2.
