DEVELOPMENT WORKER (Redcar and Cleveland) 20 Hours Per Week DEVELOPMENT WORKER (Redcar and Cleveland) 20 hours per week Job Specification Context The Church Urban Fund and the Church of England’s Diocese of York have been working together since 2012 with other churches and faiths, local groups and organisations, to help transform lives and build flourishing communities. Our work is focused in communities where people face multiple challenges. We engage with local authorities, MPs and other agencies to bring the concerns and resources of local churches and communities to areas of joint working. We are the local expression of the Church Urban Fund in the Diocese of York and we are proud to be part of the Together Network which gives a voice on the local and national stage. You can read more about our work at www.cuf.org.uk/about-us-tmc Our history Our first development worker focused activity on Middlesbrough, whilst strengthening links and influence across a wider area. In 2014 the Church Urban Fund and the Diocese led the establishment of a charitable Joint Venture company, Together Middlesbrough and Cleveland (TM&C), to support this activity. We have had a worker in post to establish our work in Redcar & Cleveland since the beginning of 2016: our first appointee has moved on and we are now seeking to refill the post. Aim of the post The core purpose of the post is to develop the work and effect of TM&C in the unitary authority area of Redcar and Cleveland, within the policies, priorities, goals and objectives set by the Board.

It will include a requirement in relation to the management or avoidance of conflicts of interest. Occupational requirement: The ethos of TM&C is overtly Christian.

Each interviewed applicant for the post will be required to show how (s)he sympathises with, and will uphold, the Christian ethos of TM&C. Line management and employment matters A director of TM&C will be assigned as your line manager. Your contract will include provision in respect of sickness absence, grievance and disciplinary procedure, etc. Probation and notice period The appointment is subject to a six month probationary period, during which TM&C may terminate your employment upon one week’s notice.

The Bristol Pupil Voice survey for primary and secondary school pupils asks questions across a broad range of topics relating to health and wellbeing. The subject matter is similar for both age groups although there are some differences in the style of questions and topics covered where appropriate. The survey provides those planning and delivering services with a detailed insight into the behaviours, attitudes and concerns of young people, and an opportunity to assess the success of projects and initiatives that have already been commissioned. The Pupil Voice Survey was first commissioned in Bristol in 2008 and was repeated in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2015 and 2019.

  • Update on Further Tender Opportunities for 2018 Contract Work on 28
    28 March 2018 – Update on further tender opportunities for 2018 contract work On 28 February 2018 we published an update on the procurement process for 2018 civil legal aid contracts. This document provides further information about the tender opportunities that will open shortly to award additional: Face to face advice contracts; Housing Possession Court Duty Scheme (“HPCDS”) contracts; and Civil Legal Advice (“CLA”) specialist telephone advice contracts. Face to face services On 28 February we confirmed that as a result of the procurement process, there had been a good level of demand for face to face advice contracts. We also confirmed there were a small number of areas where the LAA wished to secure greater provision. We expect these tenders for additional face to face contract work to begin in late April 2018. We will be seeking additional services in the following areas only: a) 7 family procurement areas where fewer than five compliant bids were received; b) 39 housing and debt procurement areas where one or fewer compliant bids were received; and c) 6 immigration and asylum access points where one or fewer compliant bids were received. Annex A lists the procurement areas / access points in which we will be advertising additional face to face advice services. Any organisation who can meet the minimum contract requirements will be able to tender to deliver the advertised contract work under a 2018 Standard Civil Contract. This includes organisations that have already tendered for a 2018 Standard Civil Contract who wish to open additional offices in the advertised procurement areas /access points and organisations who have not previously tendered.

  • Teesside Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    Teesside Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities Second edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… Foreword written by: Jeremy Garside, Chief Executive of Tees Valley Wildlife Trust This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. Alongside its heavy industry Teesside has some fantastic countryside. There are numerous parks, green spaces and nature reserves which provide excellent opportunities for countryside activities, from walking to wildlife spotting. It is more than worth taking that first step and getting yourself involved in your local countryside, regardless of your abilities. For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help us to encourage better access for all in the future. This Second Edition published Spring 2019 Copyright © Open Country 2019 Foreword Getting into the countryside is such an important thing for all of us. There is nothing better than the natural environment for the body and soul.

  • The Social Mobility Index
    The Social Mobility Index 1 Contents Foreword 3 What is the Social Mobility Index? 5 Summary 5 Methodology 6 Geographical variation in the Social Mobility Index 9 Analysing performance against the Social Mobility Index 18 Key Headlines 21 Early Years 28 School 31 Youth 34 Adulthood 37 2 Foreword On the morning after the election, the Prime Minister set a One Nation agenda for this Parliament. Britain, he said, should be “a place where a good life is in reach for everyone who is willing to work and do the right thing”. His would be a Government that offered opportunity to all, no matter where they came from. These are welcome commitments but in this report we examine the very real challenges facing the Government in creating a One Nation Britain. For the first time it identifies the most and the least socially mobile areas of the country. It does so by examining in detail the chances available to young people from poorer backgrounds in each of the 324 local authority areas in England to get the educational qualifications they need to succeed in life, and the opportunities in the local area to convert those qualifications into a good job and a decent standard of living. The Social Mobility Index uncovers a new geography of disadvantage in England. For decades the conventional wisdom has been that geographical inequalities in social mobility are drawn across simple boundaries: the North versus the South; rich areas versus poor areas; town versus country. Our analysis suggests that some of this is right – there are worrying signs, for example, that London and its commuter belt is pulling away from the rest of the country when it comes to the chances of youngsters getting into good schools and good jobs.

  • Local Authority Designated Officer Managing Allegations Against Staff, Carers, Or Volunteers Who Work with Children
    Local Authority Designated Officer Managing allegations against staff, carers, or volunteers who work with children. in Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar & Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees The Children’s Hub Hartlepool and Stockton-on-Tees The Local Area Designated Officer (LADO) Every Local Authority has a statutory responsibility to have a Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) who is responsible for co-ordinating the response to concerns that an adult who works with children may have caused them harm. Whilst local authorities play a lead role, safeguarding children and protecting them from harm is everyone’s responsibility. Everyone who comes into contact with children and families has a role to play. The LADO’s key role is to: • Provide advice/guidance to employers or voluntary organisations • Liaise with the Police and other agencies including Ofsted and professional bodies such as the General Medical Council and the General Teaching Council • Monitor the progress of referrals to ensure they are dealt with as quickly as possible, consistent with a thorough and fair process • Seek to resolve any inter-agency issues. Collect strategic data and maintain a confidential database in relation to allegations • Disseminate learning from LADO enquiries throughout the children’s workforce Employers should: • Put in place and operate arrangements for dealing with allegations in accordance with these procedures • Designate a Senior Manager to be a Safeguarding Officer to whom allegations or concerns should be reported and a Deputy to whom reports should be made in the absence of the Designated Senior Manager or where that person is the subject of the allegation or concern • Ensure that their Organisation operates procedures for dealing with allegations, resolving any inter-agency issues and liaising with the LADO on the subject • And if you are the person in your organisation who is responsible for responding to that concern, you must consult with the Local Authority Designated Person (LADO) within 1 working day.
