I would urge those of you with access to the Internet to keep a regular eye on the website. It is also a pleasant duty to thank all the group leaders for the dedication and initiative with which our groups are run. More groups are READY TO ENTER emerging all the time, covering a variety of THE CAVES interests; a good reason to keep an eye on that website! Various new initiatives are in the pipeline. After Gill Matthews’ inspiring talk about Kingsbridge in Bloom the membership supported our proposal to sponsor one of their displays. This is now in hand and you should shortly be noticing the U3A logo in a prominent position by the taxi-rank. The Beacon System for managing our membership is coming on stream, and will be used for some communications with those members on the Internet, so please make sure that emails from Judy Tyler, Liz Playle, or Jackie Stacey (so far) are not condemned to ‘Spam’ on your computer. Finally we are in process of revising our constitution to reflect the Third Age Trust’s latest recommendations in order to apply for charitable status (a legal requirement for a branch of our size), and in the new year we shall be seeking the endorsement of the membership for the new draft. Watch this space.! We are always keen to encourage the participation of our members in the running of the branch, whether by contributing to the Newsletter, helping to run the monthly meetings, or making suggestions for speakers and outings (to name but a few), but at this time we would particularly encourage any recently retired solicitor among our membership to volunteer to cast an eye over our proposals for the new constitution. Would any such be kind enough get in touch with me? By the time you read this we shall already have had our celebratory Christmas dinner together, so I will conclude by wishing every member a very Happy New . WEBSITE www.u3asites.org.uk/kingsbridgeestuary I truly believe that for a website to be useful it must be up-to-date, so action is needed frequently. In our U3A many groups can explain their activities in general terms that don’t change much with time. Others have new information at least once a month and I am grateful to their group leaders for regular updates. We also have changing information about speakers at our forthcoming monthly meetings and details of future outings on the Events page. If you haven’t used the website yet please enter the address at the top here in the address bar of your browser. It’s worth it to keep in touch with all our activities.

After living in England, Germany, Cyprus and France and bringing up a family, she and her husband finally fulfilled their plan to retire to Devon. Her brother started her interest in the family tree. Most people know about their parents and grandparents but what about further back? Where did you ancestors live and what were their occupations? All this information is now widely available on the internet and we can go back as far as the 1841 census. Parish records go even further February 24th Andrew ThompsoN‘Tavistock - 1000 Years of History’ Andrew is an Archaeologist and historian who has spent most of his working life exploring and interpreting the history and heritage of South West England.

Nick completed his education and professional qualifications as a civil engineer in England He worked for thirty years in the Asia pacific region. Now retired, he and his wife live in the South Hams. May 26th AGM June 23rd and July 28th To be arranged A TASTE OF WHAT’S TO COME - proposed Speaker The History of Cosa Nostra, the Sicilian Mafia One can easily be seduced into identifying with the heightened sense of family, danger, ambition and honour in the portrayal of the mafia in films and novels. In truth the behaviour of the mafia is more horrifically brutal and its sense of “honour” more grotesquely distorted than could ever be part of a Hollywood film. The term “mafia” has come to be used for criminal organisations all over the world but few people have a clear understanding of the origins and development of the Sicilian original, “Cosa Nostra”. This talk attempts to explain how the organisation was born at the time of Italian unification and came to be embedded into the very fabric of Italian political life as the country emerged from the trauma of the Second World War. Richard Haigh, a retired head teacher is an amateur historian and lover of Italy in general, and of Sicily in particular. CHURCH VISITS Contact David Chubb Tel: 856386 We are coming to the end of another successful season of visits to some of our wonderful historic church buildings. As I write this we are planning a second trip to Plymouth Synagogue in November. The first was a great day out and a number of folk have asked for a further visit. We are likely to get well over thirty. Our remaining visits for the 2016/2017 season are: January - no visit February - Hopefully we can go to the beautifully restored church of St Peter in Plymouth, March - Ilsington Church April - Blackawton May - to be decided None of our trips would be complete without the lunch afterwards! May 2017 sees me having led the group for five years. It is time to hand over to someone else. Think about it please! I have thoroughly enjoyed the research, the buildings and the friendship of so many who have joined us. Much pleasure from learning about a way of life over the last eight hundred years which had probably gone on for ever. I am very happy to help the person who might like to take it on. DAVID CHUBB THANK YOU DAVID FOR ALL THE NUMEROUS VISITS YOU HAVE ORGANISED. SYNAGOGUE VISIT Yet another triumph for David Chubb was the visit to the Plymouth Synagogue. From the outside an unprepossessing building with no visible means of entry - did you know that Synagogues should be hidden away - neither did we! But the reveal was an eye-opener and the knowledgeable guide also a revelation. For the past 10 years the caretaker and guide of this building has been Gerry - not a Jew but one consumed with the desire to open to Christians and non-Christians a window in to the past and present history of Plymouth Jews. His enthusiasm was infectious and we listened intently to his tales. The purpose of this piece is to whet your appetite and leave you wanting to learn more so WATCH THIS SPACE in the next Newsletter WALKS WITH PUB LUNCH Our walks start at 10.15am, meeting at a pub or cafe where we have lunch when we finish.

  • Chairman's Message
    2011 No. 1 February Reg. Charity No.228966 CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE It is with regret that I have to announce that two of our long standing volunteers have resigned. Peter Reay and Ian Farrell between them have served the Society for over twenty-five years. Peter has been editing the Devon Bird Report from 1999 and wrote a section prior to that year. His keenness to ensure accuracy with each report is a testament to him. I worked closely with Peter for six years whilst County Recorder and I know the loss of his service to the Society will be greatly missed. Ian, will be known to members in recent years as our webmaster a job which he performs with enthusiasm and dedication. I first met Ian when acting as legal advisor to the Society on the wording of its new constitution when I first noticed his commitment, business acumen and a keenness to get the job done, a style he showed throughout his service as a trustee on Council, as Chairman of the Publishing Group and right up to present as Vice Chairman. On behalf of the Society I would like to thank both Peter and Ian for their service to the Society and wish them the very best for the future. Whilst Chairman I have set myself various tasks, last year it was the completion of the Birds of Devon book and ensuring the preparation of the Devon Tetrad Atlas was on a sound footing, both thankfully were achieved. This year my task is probably more difficult in that I will attempt to find volunteers to fill vacancies on Council and other posts that are vacant.

  • South Hams District Council Submission on Draft Warding Arrangements
    South Hams District Council Submission on Draft Warding Arrangements At its meeting on 9 May 2013, South Hams District Council considered a report which sought to make a recommendation to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) on alternative warding arrangements for the Council. Having considered the agenda item, the Council subsequently resolved that:- 1. both Option A (Cllr Hicks’ Submission) and Option C (Cllr Pannell’s Submission No. 2) be submitted to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) for consideration during their deliberations for a preferred new pattern of warding arrangements; and 2. based upon this decision, delegated authority be granted to the Head of Corporate Services, in consultation with the Leader of Council, to prepare the Council’s submission to the LGBCE before the deadline of Tuesday, 4 June 2013. Please note that for the purposes of this paper, ‘Option A (Cllr Hicks’ Submission)’ is attached at Appendix A and ‘Option C (Cllr Pannell’s Submission)’ is attached at Appendix B. In reaching this decision, it is important to note that the Council has not indicated any preference for either of these Options. As a consequence, the LGBCE is asked to give equal weighting to these Options during its deliberations. In view of the timescales involved and the democratic process necessary for making council decisions, coupled with the fact that the Council has decided to put two Options forward, it has not been possible to produce a particularly detailed submission which outlines some suggested ward names. In both Options, the main towns in the South Hams have been shown as a total electorate with a number of required Councillors.

  • Regeneration & Renewal of Devonport, Plymouth
    Regeneration & renewal of Devonport, Plymouth redrow.co.uk In summary: During my time as the Conservative MP for Plymouth Sutton & Devonport, Redrow was responsible for some significant redevelopment in Devonport. They went out of their way to ensure that I was kept fully informed of their plans to regenerate one of the most deprived parts of my constituency. They worked hard with the local community, including providing apprentices and materials to replace a very tired kitchen for the Devonport boxing club. Oliver Colvile Former MP 6 COMMERCIAL EXTRA42 CARE UNITS APARTMENTS 464 NEW HOMES RESTORED MARKET HALL, £3.7M NOW A DIGITAL COMMUNITY HUB CONTRIBUTIONS 2 Few housing-led projects can claim to have the level of impact on a neighbourhood that Redrow’s Vision development has had on the Devonport area of Plymouth. The decade-long, £70million redevelopment of the former Royal Navy South Yard, began in 2007 and has since transformed the area and its fortunes to create a vibrant, attractive and prosperous place to live and work. Redrow’s mixed-used Vision development includes a total of 464 homes, alongside six commercial units, 42 extra care apartments and a host of other community facilities, including a restored historic market hall, which is now set to become a digital community hub, and a central garden. Vision has contributed to major improvements throughout the area which, collectively, have made Devonport a more prosperous place where people now want to live. Indeed, according to Land Registry prices paid figures, house prices in PL1 4 - which stretches across all of Devonport – increased by 20 per cent between 2016 and 2017.

  • Annual Report Keeping Children Safe Is Everyone's Responsibility
    Keeping Children Safe is Everyone’s Responsibility. Annual report August 2018 - July 2019 In 2018-19... 15,644 children attended CAP UK workshops and assemblies across 84 schools. 100% of staff and headteachers would recommend CAP UK to other schools. “The team were so professional, friendly and passionate about what they were doing. ” Headteacher Children have the right to grow up safe, strong and free. As adults we are failing our children if we don’t act to protect their rights. Unfortunately, in the UK: ➔ 26% of children aged 10-15 report being bullied in the previous 12 months. ➔ 10% children aged 10-15 report being victims of crime. ➔ 15% of girls and 5% of boys in England and Wales are thought to experience some form of sexual abuse before the age of 16. CAP UK Child Assault Prevention builds safer communities for children. Our work with schools gives children the skills to stay safe and the confidence to tell an adult when something is worrying them. We also equip adults with the skills to protect children. Our unique preventative work has been helping children to stay safe in Devon since 1995. Last year we worked with over 15,000 children in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset. Help a child learn how to be safe, strong and free by making a regular or one-off donation through our website. Chair of Trustees View A warm welcome. In my annual CAP report, I will be celebrating the essence of what CAP represents, “Everyone working together to keep children safe”. This year CAP has reached out to 84 schools with a total of 15,654 children, 687 adults including school staff members and parents.

  • Changes Requested by Dartington Parish Council and Neighbourhood Plan 27Th Feb Hearing Matter 8
    Changes requested by Dartington Parish Council and Neighbourhood Plan 27th Feb hearing matter 8 Policy TTV30 Insert the text in red to the policy wording The LPAs support the preparation of neighbourhood plans as the means of identifying local development needs in the sustainable villages whilst acknowledging that not all communities will bring forward such plans. For those communities that want to bring forward Neighbourhood plans, the LPAs will provide comprehensive support in different ways that encourage sound plan creation while retaining local ownership of the process and meeting the requirements of the Localism Act. For sustainable villages without neighbourhood plans the LPAs will still support development that meets the essential local needs of local communities. All development proposals, whether in villages which have neighbourhood plans or not, will be considered against the other policies of this plan. And Add extra wording in paragraph 5.155 (or insert an additional paragraph in between 5.155 and 5.156) detailing what the Councils will do to support communities wanting to produce Neighbourhood Plans. Suggestion below in red. 5.155 In the Sustainable Villages, the most appropriate way to balance these considerations will often be for local people to develop neighbourhood plans, responding to local needs and opportunities. The LPAs are supportive of the neighbourhood planning process as a means of identifying and responding to local needs for development and the delivery of sustainable communities. For communities producing neighbourhood plans, the LPAs will produce a neighbourhood plan strategy document which will outline the support available. This support will include a comprehensive web-based database containing advice, links to background evidence, JLP area-specific guidance and information about the local neighbourhood, advice on buying in additional support, template documents to include consultation, engagement and project planning, guidance on policy writing and policy implications.
