  • Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership
    Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership ‘Call for Evidence’ Response to Gloucestershire’s Local Industrial Strategy Page 1 of 54 Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership Local Nature Partnerships (LNPs) were formed as part of the government’s 2011 white paper “The Natural Choice: Securing the value of nature”1. As part of a framework to strengthen local action to achieve the recovery of nature, LNPs were tasked to raise awareness about the vital services and benefits that a healthy natural environment brings for people, communities and the local economy. LNPs were to contribute to the green economy and complement Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs), of which there is an expectation from government for LNPs and LEPs to form strong links that capture the value of nature. Here in Gloucestershire, the LNP is formed of over 30 organisations from public, private and third sector bodies from across the county, all working together as an informal partnership to recognise the importance of embedding nature's value in local decisions for the benefit of the nature, people and the economy. The GLNP Mission is to champion the essential role of Gloucestershire’s natural environment in sustaining a vibrant, healthy, prosperous economy and society. With a Vision of a healthy and valued natural environment, sustaining the economy and wellbeing of Gloucestershire. Our partnership provides a strong and innovative voice for the environment sector and is seen as a key partner in helping deliver the Gloucestershire County Council’s Strategy 2019-20222. We benefit from a solid working relationship with GFirst LEP, as well as all the District Councils.

    Natural Advantage: Action for Biodiversity in the South West Case Studies in Sustainability • NATURAL ADVANTAGE:Action for Biodiversity in the South West • NATURAL ADVANTAGE:Action for Biodiversity in the South West Nature for all The nature conservation resource in our region is a major asset which we should all be proud of. Our characteristic and remarkable combination of wildlife and geological heritage is significant as an attraction to tourists, for businesses seeking to relocate, and as a major contributor to the quality of life in the South West. This has been highlighted in the recently published Regional Environment Strategy. None of us can fail to appreciate this wonderful heritage but it has been harder to understand what action is needed to care for it. This booklet clearly demonstrates the breadth of what is being done now. Across the region a host of organisations and individuals are working in partnership to maintain and enhance this precious nature conservation heritage. Wildlife and habitats are benefiting, but as these case studies demonstrate the benefits also extend across to economic and social well being. What is important is that these studies act to promote further action in the South West.To ensure that we pass on to future generations a wealth of wildlife and habitats, that continue to enhance the quality of life of all those who live, work or visit here. The SW Regional Biodiversity Partnership must be congratulated for putting together this important “ When we see land as a booklet. It is a celebration of what we can all achieve when we work in partnership.

  • Brian Knight
    STRATEGY, MISSION AND PEOPLE IN A RURAL DIOCESE A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF THE DIOCESE OF GLOUCESTER 1863-1923 BRIAN KNIGHT A thesis submitted to the University of Gloucestershire in accordance with the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities August, 2002 11 Strategy, Mission and People in a Rural Diocese A critical examination of the Diocese of Gloucester 1863-1923 Abstract A study of the relationship between the people of Gloucestershire and the Church of England diocese of Gloucester under two bishops, Charles John Ellicott and Edgar Charles Sumner Gibson who presided over a mainly rural diocese, predominantly of small parishes with populations under 2,000. Drawing largely on reports and statistics from individual parishes, the study recalls an era in which the class structure was a dominant factor. The framework of the diocese, with its small villages, many of them presided over by a squire, helped to perpetuate a quasi-feudal system which made sharp distinctions between leaders and led. It is shown how for most of this period Church leaders deliberately chose to ally themselves with the power and influence of the wealthy and cultured levels of society and ostensibly to further their interests. The consequence was that they failed to understand and alienated a large proportion of the lower orders, who were effectively excluded from any involvement in the Church's affairs. Both bishops over-estimated the influence of the Church on the general population but with the twentieth century came the realisation that the working man and women of all classes had qualities which could be adapted to the Church's service and a wider lay involvement was strongly encouraged.
