Trumpit10.Pdf 2 The news that the old sewerage works at Esholt are to be reborn as a countryside park was initially welcomed by local residents. Plans subsequently released by the owners of the site, Yorkshire Water, may not be quite so well received though with a mix of industrial units and housing – 150 in total - offering a different perspective. This is one of the last truly open spaces in the district where we can walk and ride, young and old. It now looks as if it will become just another stretch of urbanization down an Aire Valley covered in concrete. Every inch of this plan needs inspecting with full consultations, not a solitary meeting to proclaim all is well. This is all we have left; everything else has gone, thanks to the useless politicians – local and national - and if this goes then there is no return, nowhere to go. For me personally it does not matter, my walking days are almost over but my kids and grandchildren have been lucky enough to have enjoyed climbing trees and all the things I did as a youth in Thackley. For future generations it will not be available. Don’t let it happen. Local elections are looming in May and soon we will have leaflets promising us all the Earth from those wishing to get at seat down at City Hall. Ask direct questions of these people; who are you? What will you do for us? How much do you know about this area? Many councillors live nowhere near where they claim to represent. Quite a few others seem only to get visible around election time. And what chance of anybody believing the local pretend politicians after the shambolic lot in Westminster?

  • First of the Old Trusts Dealt with by the Commissioners Under Mr
    CHAPTER IX. THE GIRLS' GRAMMAR SCHOOL. first of the old trusts dealt with by the commissioners under Mr. Forster's Endowed Schools Act of r87o, was the Free Grammar School of Charles II. at Bradford. In the scheme drawn up by the commissioners for the management of the boys' school, two of the clauses run as follows :-"This foundation shall consist of two branches, one for the education of boys, and the other for the education of girls." "From and after the date of this scheme, or within three years from such elate, the governors shall appropriate the annual sum of £zoo, and on the determination or failure of the pension hereafter contem­ plated for the present schoolmaster or that assigned to the late usher, the further sum of £so, for the establishment and maintenance of a girls' school, and such school shall be organised, supported, and managed in accordance with directions to be hereafter set forth in a supplementary scheme." The supplementary scheme here alluded to was drafted, after careful consideration, by the committee of the Ladies' Educational Association ; and it is mainly to this committee that Bradford is indebted for the Girls' Grammar School. It was felt, how­ ever, that the endowment allotted to the girls by the Commission was insufficient for the establishment of a first-grade school, and therefore the ladies and gentlemen most interested in the movement raised subscriptions to the amount of £sooo, through the generosity of the leading men of Bradford, notably Sir Titus Salt, Bart., Henry Brown, Esq. , and Isaac Holden, Esq.

  • Proceedings Wesley Historical Society
    Proceedings OF THE Wesley Historical Society Editor: E. ALAN ROSE, B.A. Volume XLIII December 1982 THE MANTLE OF ELIJAH Nineteenth-century Primitive Methodism and Twentieth-century Pentecostalism [This article is based on a lecture delivered to the Lincolnshire Methodist History Society at Sleaford on IOth October 1980. Many of the references are to places and events in Lincolnshire, but the author has little reason to believe that Primitive Methodism in Lincolnshire was so unique as to render these references useless to readers in other parts of Britain.] y concern in this article (hence its title) is to pose the ques­ tion: Has the spirit of nineteenth-century Primitive Method­ Mism come to rest on twentieth-century Pentecostalism? Not that one would want to be suspected of suggesting that Primitive Methodism has been taken up by a whirlwind into heaven! But it does seem that something of the spirit of the one has been taken up by the other. I must go on to say that I am in no sense suggesting a theological comparison. In some ways the two movements seem quite close in their theological bases, but that is not the point of the comparison I wish to make. Clearly their particular beliefs about the Holy Spirit lead Pentecostalists to assess the Spirit's gifts differ­ ently, giving them a dominant concern to seek and give evidence of the more spectacular gifts, notably that of speaking in tongues. This emphasis is quite different from that of Primitive Methodism­ although I should be very interested to know whether Pentecostal­ type manifestations accompanied early Primitive Methodism.

    Photo Cathryn Bell Photo Cathryn Bell 2 Welcome to our first edition of 2019; sadly, our break did not include a tour of the Caribbean onboard the company yacht. However, since our relaunch last summer, things have gone well and we are very grateful to all our advertisers and supporters helping us to almost triple our print run. Sincere apologies if you have struggled to get a copy at times but the aim is to increase production. We want to maintain a true community magazine for Idle and Thackley that is content led with local issues foremost, not simply full of adverts; Captain Bill’s yacht will have to wait. Locally, almost the same time that Barclays closed their doors for good, the criminal element nearly blew the doors off the Post Office, taking the cash machine. The damage was horrific and had anybody been on-site the consequences are unimaginable. Sarj and the team would like to express their thanks for the heart- warming support from the local community. The Post Office is all we have now in terms of a local banking provision now so we should value this. Elsewhere, there is plenty going on with a smart conversion to offices of the Idle Coniston building plus plans for a bistro and a micropub in Thackley too. This issue contains all the old favourites plus the story of the Bradford Odeon, a building that defied many who sought to flatten it. Our new What’s On page aims to provide a directory of activities for young and old so help us publicise your activity.

  • Knowing Bradford This Pack Has Been Developed to Support the ‘Knowing Bradford’ Project
    Activity Pack – Knowing Bradford This pack has been developed to support the ‘Knowing Bradford’ project. It will help students to explore the history of Bradford places and people. Introduction The script of people and places in Bradford merely scratches the surface of the city’s past and locations important to its history and heritage. There is a lot more that students could explore. The ideas presented here are examples of follow-up activities that will reinforce learning, understanding, awareness, and develop research, literacy, oracy and presentation skills. They can be mixed and matched depending on student levels. They have been divided into subject areas, although most are related to more than one curriculum area, e.g.: historical research includes reading and concentration skills, and may lead to writing, art, design activities, etc. Maths is also integral to many of the activities. Each scene could be performed individually by students to recap knowledge before choosing follow-up activities related to those scenes. This Activity Pack relates to the Teaching Activity - Knowing Bradford: How can buildings tell a story?

    Report to the Keighley Area Committee Report of the Keighley Area Co-ordinator to the Meeting of the Keighley Area Committee to be held on Wednesday 11th March at 1800 in the Keighley Council Chamber, Keighley Town Hall. AL Subject: Keighley’s first BIG 10K Summary statement: This report informs members of Keighley’s first Big 10K event. Director: Ian Bairstow Portfolio: Leader of the Council Environment and Neighbourhoods Report Contact Jeff Bennett Service Improvement Report Author: John Dennis Committee: Corporate Sport Keighley E-mail: [email protected] 16 Report to the Keighley Area Committee 1. SUMMARY This report informs members of Keighley’s first Big 10K event. 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 On Sunday March 16th 2008 a broad cross section of Keighley Community took part in the inaugural event of a new type of 10K run on a multi-terrain route deliberately chosen to connect parks and communities in Keighley via the network of paths, backroads, ginnels and through routes that are characteristic of the town of Keighley. 2.2 The route primarily used “walkway” routes that have been established via the SportKeighley “walkways” initiative. This forms part of the wider “Keighley Integrated” or “Ki” initiative that also includes cycling (“cyKle”) and skating (“sKate”). 2.3 All of the initiatives, like the BIGK 10K event itself, use the “Red K” designation that is designed to promote all that is good about Keighley. 2.4 The 16th March date coincided with the national Sport Relief Mile initiative and thus a number of events were also planned around this.
