    Marcus Clements Head of Consumer Policy & Compliance Telephone 020 7282 2000 E-mail [email protected] 03 October 2018 Leo Goodwin Managing Director First TransPennine Express Limited [by email] Dear Leo Review of First TransPennine Express Limited (Trading as TransPennine Express) Disabled People’s Protection Policy (Condition 5 of the Station Licence and GB Statement of National Regulatory Provisions: Passenger) Thank you for submitting your draft Disabled People’s Protection Policy (DPPP) for review. A copy of your approved DPPP is attached to this letter, and will be published on our website along with a copy of this letter. I confirm that we have reviewed your DPPP against the 2009 Guidance “How to write your Disabled People’s Protection Policy: A guide for Train and Station Operators” (the Guidance) and can confirm that your revised DPPP meets the requirements of Condition 5 of your station licence and GB Statement of National Regulatory Provisions: Passenger (SNRP). We welcome the following, which we believe are likely to be positive for passengers: Your commitment to reduced timescales for assistance booking to two hours for passengers making direct journeys between two of your own managed stations1; The provision of free car parking for blue badge holders; and Your use of assistance cards, which allow passengers with communication difficulties and hidden disabilities to communicate their assistance needs to staff. Since your DPPP was originally submitted to ORR we have had several exchanges in the intervening period in order to bring about the changes required to make it fully compliant with the Guidance. 1 We recognise that you have not been able to secure the introduction of a 2-hour notice period for booked assistance travelling on your services to or from Northern and Network Rail managed stations, as envisaged in your franchise agreement, and that this is the subject of franchise variation discussions with Rail North; if this situation changes, we would expect a revised DPPP to be submitted to us for consideration.

  • Capital of Culture Mega-Events and the Potential for Gender Equality
    Gendering Cities of Culture. City/ Capital of Culture Mega-events and the Potential for Gender Equality. being a thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Hull and University of Oviedo. By Barbara Grabher B.A., University of Vienna. M.A., Utrecht University/ University of Granada. December 2019 Funding This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 675378. I Abstract In the context of the transformative ambitions of event-based, culture-led urban regeneration, this thesis interrogates the production of cultures of gender equality in City/ Capital of Culture mega-events. Inspired by Donostia/ San Sebastián as European Capital of Culture in 2016 and analysed in detail in Hull’s celebration of the UK City of Culture in 2017, the investigation seeks to understand the relevance of socio-cultural values in the celebration of art, culture and heritage in the urban context. The investigation analyses the City/ Capital of Culture mega-events through a conceptualisation of their socio-cultural significance, which is informed by liminal and carnivalesque event characteristics. Relating to the politics, practices and perceptions of gender equality in mega-events, the research is based on an ethnographic study of six equality- themed events in the field sites of Hull and Donostia/ San Sebastián. The analysis develops from a relational reading of the two sites: due to its strong emphasis on negotiations of socio-cultural values, Donostia/ San Sebastián informs my research focus in Hull.
