The same goes for children. Brownies Louise Jackson 814844 Young people these days do not have the opportunities for the experiences that past Meet and Munch Mags Dudley 812424 Upwood Youth Club Denice Smith 711735 generations had. In the mid 1940s when I was nine or ten years old I could take my Art Group Frances Ashfield 711411 younger brother along the narrow road from our home, up a rough farm track, over an Cross Keys Golf Society Malcolm Hudson 711221 unguarded railway crossing into the woods to play with our Dinky toys in an old sand Upwood Pantomime Society Doug Mcleod 814114 pit.

If Village Fete Committee Frances Ashfield 711411 parents did this today they would have the full weight of Social Services fall upon Upwood Business Association Deana Hudson 711221 them. Sunday Club Ann-Marie Cracknell 812195 To make up for this lack of freedom, a group of keen residents formed a Youth Club Table Tennis Club David Williams 812923 Ramsey Bridge Club B & A Quinton 813349 that could meet in the Village Hall every week.

Parents do volunteer, but Speed Watch Keith Sisman 710552 when their children grow up and leave the club they tend to leave also, leaving a Ramsey Rural Museum Michael Latchem 01354 694241 vacancy.

The members formed a new Youth Committee to help run the Club and come up with ideas and activities that they – the members – would like to see in the future. The year ended with the Club’s Christmas Party on 17 th December. The Club is now closed for Upwood Small to Tall January while the Panto takes over the Village Hall, however the Youth Club’s future EVERY WEEK DAY TERM TIME is very uncertain. Since September the Governing Committee has been running the Breakfast Club 8 – 9am Club whilst making extensive efforts to find a new Youth Leader for the New Year. Pre-School 8.30 – 11.30am (funded children) At the time of writing this search has been unsuccessful and it is likely that the Club 9 – 11.30am (non-funded children) will not re-open in the foreseeable future. Since it started 8 years ago, the Youth After School Club 3.30 – 6pm Leader has always been a volunteer, invariably a parent, supported by an Organising Committee of other volunteer/parents who value the Club as an important part of our village, somewhere where our youngsters can come, meet their friends and enjoy themselves in a safe, friendly environment. The Club has a venue, is well equipped, has all the formal policies in place, has some funds in the bank, and most importantly Learning Through Creative Play has plenty of young members who don’t want to see their Club close.

Lily, who is a member of the Sparks Club in Ramsey, decided to walk a marathon by completing a mile every day for 26 days. She could be seen meeting her own personal challenge pounding the streets of Upwood accompanied by her mum, Helen, and her trusty collection bucket.

At the same time as receiving this issue (No.108) you should also receive a copy of the April issue (No.107) which was printed prior to the lockdown but not delivered. Hopefully you will find information in both copies which is still of interest to you. It is reassuring to see how supportive our community has been during the pandemic. Not only has an effective Covidhelp group been set up in record time but many parishioners have also been involved in supporting friends and neighbours through informal arrangements for helping with shopping, collecting medication, dog walking and many other requests.

  • English Medieval Population: Reconciling Time Series and Cross Sectional Evidence
    ENGLISH MEDIEVAL POPULATION: RECONCILING TIME SERIES AND CROSS SECTIONAL EVIDENCE Stephen Broadberry, London School of Economics, [email protected] Bruce M. S. Campbell, The Queen’s University of Belfast, [email protected] Bas van Leeuwen, University of Warwick, [email protected] 11 October 2011 File: MedievalPopulation8 Abstract: A new time series for English medieval population is constructed from manor-level data using an index-number approach and a regional-weighting scheme. The absolute level of the medieval population is established with a benchmark for 1377, but using the need for consistency with other benchmarks for 1086, 1522 and 1541 as additional constraints. The amount of food required to support the peak medieval population is checked against a reconstruction of English agriculture at that time. Acknowledgements: This paper forms part of the project “Reconstructing the National Income of Britain and Holland, c.1270/1500 to 1850”, funded by the Leverhulme Trust, Reference Number F/00215AR.We are grateful to Alexander Apostolides for valuable research assistance and to Larry Poos for making available his data on tithing-penny payments. 1 I. INTRODUCTION The pioneering work on English medieval population by Russell (1948) established benchmark levels of population for 1086 and 1377 and considered time-series evidence to link these to each other and to estimates for the early-modern period. Russell paid particular attention to the consistency of his estimates over this long sweep of history and arrived at the conclusion that the peak level of medieval population before the Black Death was around 3.7 million.
