  • Complete List of Officers and Men Ashton Pals Battalion 1914
    Complete List of Officers and Men Ashton Pals Battalion The Cheshire Reporter August 15 th 1914 An Historic Number On page 6 of this issue we give a complete list of the names of the officers and men of the Ashton Battalion Territorials. At such a time the list of names must be of supreme interest to the people of Ashton and district as there is scarcely a family that has not a representative or friend in the Territorials. This is the first time in history the Territorials have been called up on active service and the public interest in this fine body of citizen soldiers has been much deepened by the announcement made during the week that no less than 858 of the Territorials have in response to an invitation from the War Office volunteered for service abroad. It was not known up to yesterday (Friday) when they would be called upon to leave the town, but a communication is expected from the War Office at any moment. The men are standing by in readiness for the call. They are full of enthusiasm and are eager to go wherever they should be called. It is stated that they may be asked to go to Malta, Gibraltar or Egypt. For this reason the publication of the names of the whole of the officers and men of the battalion constitutes this issue of the “Reporter” an historic number. This list has never previously been given anywhere. It should therefore be kept by everyone and will no doubt be cherished in families for many generations showing as it will the noble response made by their ancestors when, England and all Europe was involved in the greatest peril the human race has ever known.

  • 'After Housing Costs' Child Poverty Rate from Highest to Lowest
    Notes: This spreadsheet ranks wards in Greater Manchester by their 'after housing costs' child poverty rate from highest to lowest. This is done using data published by End Child Poverty in 2019. The data also ranks areas based on the proportion of the population in a ward classified as black and minority ethnic (BAME) in census data. The higher the proportion of people who are BAME in a ward the higher the rank. This data shows that areas with the highest BAME populations in Greater Manchester are often the areas with the highest rates of child poverty.
