It provides robust data that reflects the perceptions of Area 7 residents on key quality of life, anti social behaviour and corporate satisfaction indicators/figures 2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS IT IS RECOMMENDED that the Committee: − Note the Area 7 findings − Note that Council Departments will analyse the data presented by Mori and integrate them into their service planning processes for 2006/2007 − Note that information from the survey is to be used to develop the Community Plan. 3 BACKGROUND INFORMATION 3.1 In October/November 2005 MORI undertook Nottingham’s 2 nd Residents survey. The Council worked in partnership with One Nottingham who wished to engage city residents as part of the safer and stronger communities’ strand of Neighbourhood Renewal, focussing on local communities’ quality of life. In total 2,033 City residents took part of these 207 are Area 7 residents. 3.2 It is worth noting that the survey dealt with residents’ perceptions at the time the survey was conducted rather than facts . Residents’ perceptions, therefore, may not accurately represent the level and quality of services that are currently provided in Area 7 and Nottingham as a whole. One of the challenges will be to link these perceptions with other data that is available, for example, performance indicators or other measurements of service quality.

Interesting to Know.......... The man who revolutionised public transport in Nottingham is to retire. Mark Fowels joined Nottingham City Transport in 1994 and took over as MD in 2001 and following a successful bid, also assumed the role of the Chairman of the Arrow Consortium which re-introduced trams to Nottingham in 2004. Flexible workspace provider Cuba has opened a second venue in Nottingham. The latest is on King Street providing office space, co-working space with hot desks, designated desks, meeting rooms and an in-house barista over four floors. Work to maintain and enhance the look of Trent Bridge – one of the key gateways to the city – has been completed. Nottingham’s Business Improvement District has secured a new five year term.

Global temperatures are on the increase, and the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reported that we had just 12 years to prevent catastrophic climate change. Thankfully it is not too late to do something about it. However, making the necessary changes does mean that we need to take radical action and to take it now. Local authorities are in prime position to bring these changes about. This paper sets out a number of steps that can be taken, and that Broxtowe Liberal Democrats propose are implemented locally. The purpose of this paper is to provide guidance to officers of the council in drafting new policies, and also for members of the public about the changes that we are seeking to implement. This paper is a wide-ranging document covering a number of “The fate of future generations depends on different subjects.

  • Safeguarding of Children in Our Church
    Safeguarding Children and Young People Policy and Procedures The Parish of All Hallows, Ordsall This policy is a framework that requires completion and regular review in your parish Please add local information and details at all relevant points marked * 2013 Principles of the House of Bishop’s Policy for Safeguarding Children Every person has a value and dignity which comes directly from the creation of male and female in God’s own image and likeness. Christians see this potential as fulfilled by God’s re-creation of us in Christ. Among other things this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image of God and therefore to protect them from harm. Principles We are committed to: The care, nurture of, and respectful pastoral ministry with, all children and all adults. The safeguarding and protection of all children, young people and adults when they are vulnerable. The establishing of safe, caring communities which provide a loving environment where there is a culture of ‘informed vigilance’ as to the dangers of abuse. We will carefully select and train all those with any responsibilities within the Church, in line with safer recruitment principles, including the use of the Disclosure and Barring Service. We will respond without delay to every complaint made which suggests that an adult, child or young person may have been harmed, co-operating with the police and local authority in any investigation. We will seek to work with anyone who has suffered abuse, developing with him or her an appropriate ministry of informed pastoral care. We will seek to challenge any abuse of power, especially by anyone in a position of trust.
