  • Electoral Registers and Trade Directories In
    A guide to Electoral Registers and Trade Directories in Swansea Central Library Burgess Lists and Electoral Registers Our Registers cover the Swansea West, Swansea East, Lliw Valley (from 1991 onwards) and Gower areas. The earliest Register in the Local Studies Library dates from 1836. There is an incomplete run until 1939 and a fuller set after the Second World War, up to 2002. The majority of our registers are available for people to browse on the open shelves in the Local Studies area. Some Notes on Using the Registers Inclusion in early Electoral Registers or Burgess Lists was dependent on property ownership and women were totally excluded until 1918 (even then they had to be over 30). Fortunately, later Electoral Registers were less exclusive. Nineteenth century registers listed voters by surname within wards, whereas registers from Edwardian times swapped to listing people by address within their local ward. Thus to use the registers to find people in the twentieth century you will need to have an address or at least an idea of the ward or area they lived in. Later volumes also contain street indexes. Also please remember borough boundaries have changed over the years. The Representation of the People (England and Wales) Regulations 2002 meant that the full electoral registers could no longer be held by the Central Library. The current and recent registers can be found in West Glamorgan Archives, also located in Swansea Civic Centre. They also have a fuller set of historic electoral registers for all of the former county of West Glamorgan. The historic registers in the Archives are on closed access so you will need to ask staff for access.

  • Written Statement by the Welsh Assembly Government
    WRITTEN STATEMENT BY THE WELSH ASSEMBLY GOVERNMENT Title: Children’s Social Services in the City and County of Swansea: Membership of the Intervention Board Date: 30 April 2009 By: Gwenda Thomas, Deputy Minister for Social Services I have made two previous statements in Plenary setting out my concerns about social services for children in the City and County of Swansea. On 3 March, I indicated I was considering making an Order under Section 84 of the Children Act 1989 declaring the Authority to be in default of certain of its functions and directing it to take action to improve. I also indicated that I was considering establishing an Intervention Board to provide robust external challenge to the authority in order to drive the improvements necessary. My consideration of such action resulted from the findings of an Inspection in December 2008 by the Care and Social Services Inspectorate for Wales. This found that, while there had been some improvements following its inspection in 2007 and application by the Chief Inspector of the Protocol for Responding to Serious Concern about Local Authority Social Services, the overall judgement remained the same from both inspections. Services remained inconsistent and prospects for improvement remained uncertain. Swansea was given 14 days to respond to my proposal and a letter from the Chief Executive confirmed that the authority would embrace the opportunity to work with the Intervention Board and that it would ensure high level corporate support, at officer and member level, for the process of bringing about the necessary improvements in its social services for children.

  • Coroners Records from Several Decades Before
    Information leaflet no. 10 CORONERS’ RECORDS What is a coroner? A Coroner is a judicial office holder. A coroner must be a lawyer or a doctor, and in some cases both. What do coroners do? Coroners inquire into violent or unnatural deaths, sudden deaths of unknown cause, and deaths which have occurred in prison. A coroner’s authority to inquire flows from the report of a body being within the coroner’s district and not from where the death occurred. It is a coroner’s duty at an inquest to establish who the deceased was and how, when and where the deceased came by his or her death. An inquest is about what happened, not who was responsible for what happened. If the coroner has decided to investigate a death the registrar of births and deaths must wait for the coroner to finish his or her inquiries before the death can be registered. The coroner may ask a pathologist to examine the body and carry out a post-mortem examination. If so, the examination must be made as soon as possible. Record types Post Mortem reports: if a person has not been in the care of a doctor within the last couple of weeks before their death, their body will undergo a medical examination by a pathologist to establish the cause of death. Post Mortem reports are formal medical descriptions of the body, including all organs. The report includes the name, age and height of deceased, information on rigor mortis and nourishment, and estimated time of death. Once the cause of death has been established, it will be entered on the death certificate and the body released for burial.

  • West Glamorgan's Wild Woodlands Report 2015
    West Glamorgan’s Wild Woodlands Report 2015 - 2018 1 www.welshwildlife.org Introduction This report covers the work delivered by the Swansea and Neath Port Talbot Conservation Team of the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales (WTSWW) during the period September 2015 - August 2018. It covers the full breadth of work undertaken by the team for this fixed-term WREN grant funded project. The Wild Woodlands Project was funded by WREN’s FCC Biodiversity Action Fund, which rejuvenated management to some reserves that through lack of time needed attention to improve their condition, increase biodiversity and eradicate invasive non-native species (INNS). The report aims to capture and celebrate the achievements accomplished during the three years of this project. All project aims have on the whole been successfully completed. Habitat management work that was laid out in the plan has been successfully carried out over the past three years, including thinning, coppicing, ride management, path clearance, mowing/scything meadows, INNS control and site infrastructure maintenance. This report is written by Tara Daniels, Project Officer, and edited by Lizzie Wilberforce, Conservation manager. Tara Daniels, West Glamorgan’s Wild Woodlands Project Officer 2015- 2018. Habitat management. These woodlands are BAP priority habitats and some sites also contain a mosaic of other BAP habitats including neutral grasslands. We sought to restore these woodlands and grasslands and maintain the high quality mixture of priority habitats. The restoration work also set out to support a number of BAP priority species (e.g. Dormice, bats, Pied Flycatchers, Adders). Thus the project contributed to the achievement of both local and national BAP species and habitat targets.
