It was with eagerness we embarked on this review as every member of the Panel felt it important to understand and progress the issues involved with the Complex. The Corporate Overview and Scrutiny Committee, who originally established the Panel, thought it extremely important that all political parties had a voice on the Panel as the Thameside Complex is for all and everyone. The original chair of the Panel, Councillor Charles Curtis, lost his seat in the 2015 local elections so I stepped up to the position from mid-May 2015 onwards to finalise our recommendations. During the review it struck me how many residents were concerned that the Council was seeking to do away with either the building or the services at the Complex.

What is culture? 2. Who is the strategy for? 3. Context 3.1. Local 3.2. National 4. Aims, objectives and outcomes COVER IMAGES Clockwise from top: Children’s athletics at Hornchurch stadium; adult arts at Fairkytes Arts Centre; Harold Wood Library, one of ten libraries in Havering; wildflower meadow created by Havering Parks on Queen’s Theatre Green 2 A NEW CULTURE STRATEGY FOR HAVERING 2019-22 Executive Summary The new Culture Strategy for Havering is a framework that will inform future directions for culture and cultural activities in Havering. Previously, although there has been significant cultural activity within Havering, there has not been an up-to-date strategic context within which the diverse provision and opportunities that exist can sit. Culture touches upon many peoples’ lives in Havering and significantly contributes to the quality of life and health and well-being of residents and visitors to our borough. The Culture Strategy is fundamental to meeting the needs of the wider community. The strategy has been developed through a five part consultation process: 1. A series of seven public workshops held in venues across the borough. 2. A number of one-to-one meetings with representatives of individual organisations and stakeholders across the borough. 3. An online consultation questionnaire which the public responded to, developed in consultation with the new Cultural Stakeholders advisory group and promoted through social media and partner organisations.

  • 40 More Theatres Supported with Final Theatre Reopening Fund Grants
    Theatres Trust supports 40 more theatres with final Theatre Reopening Fund grants The national public advisory body for theatre has awarded a further £155,265 of grants to help theatres with costs of Covid-secure reopening, including changes to the building to reduce congestion, improvements to ventilation systems and simple measures like installing hand sanitisers and screens. The theatres supported reflect the vital elements that make up the theatre ecosystem with awards made to significant producing theatres – Hampstead Theatre, Lyric Hammersmith, Pitlochry Festival Theatre, Theatre Royal Bath – major receiving houses Capital Theatres and Worthing Theatres, venues specialising in dance (Northern Ballet), new writing (Traverse, New Diorama, Gate Theatre) and one of the country’s few puppet theatres, Upfront Theatre. Community theatres across the country have received grants, including young people-focused Blue Elephant Theatre and Hanger Farm Arts Centre, which works with people with learning disabilities. Theatres Trust has also given grants to help reopen every type of theatre building, including the country’s last remaining Regency theatre, Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds, theatres in converted cinemas (People’s Theatre and Blackburn Empire) and former churches (Headgate Theatre and Lowestoft Players Theatre), pub theatres (Jack Studio Theatre), outdoor theatre (Rutland Open Air) and even a travelling theatre – Paines Plough. Theatres Trust Director Jon Morgan says, We are beginning to look forward to a time when theatres can reopen, welcome audiences back inside and continue to play a vital role in their communities. It has been a difficult year, but Theatres Trust is pleased to have been able to support so many theatres through this grant scheme as well as our free advice service and the #SaveOurTheatres Crowdfunding campaign.

  • 5. Voluntary Champion Report 2019
    ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE MEMBER CHAMPION FOR THE VOLUNTARY SECTOR COMPACT 2019/20 My second year as the Voluntary Champion for the Borough has been without a doubt an unforgettable and emotional year whereby people have been confronted with the enormous impact of Covid-19. Nothing could have prepared us for this pandemic and no one could have possibly envisaged the devastation, heartache and turmoil that Covid-19 would have upon our lives, health and wellbeing. However, a caring and kind community spirit emerged with people across the Borough offering to volunteer and support the vulnerable, elderly and each other. The Havering Volunteer Centre lead by Shelley Hart and Rebecca Mazrreku remained open for the whole duration of ‘lockdown’ and worked tirelessly with their team. They were inundated with calls from 600+ volunteers all wanting to help. It was clearly evident that all the volunteers were united in their enthusiasm, kindness and compassion which was immensely reassuring. The HVC received 14,300 crisis intervention calls from residents requesting support and reassurance. The Centre organised a range of emergency services that included 850 food parcel deliveries along with: 171 click & collection shopping pick up & deliveries 2200 pharmacy prescriptions collections and deliveries 450 individuals into befriending roles, 35 dog walking roles, Provided over 90 food bank vouchers. In total approximately 2,600 households registered for support and 9,846 volunteering hours amassed from the Volunteer Centre alone. Faith Groups also provided food parcels that were delivered on a regular basis to the vulnerable and those self-isolating. Tapestry provided a daily hot food service at £5 per meal to those that were unable to cook meals.
