  • Prices Street Consultation Summary
    APPENDIX 4 PRICES STREET CONSULTATION SUMMARY The council is working with Better Bankside, the Kirkaldy Testing Museum and the developers of the Bankside Hilton to improve the environment in Prices Street following the completion of the construction of the new hotel. Consultation was carried out from 23 October to 28 November 2014, with proposals to landscape the highway and install planters, street trees, seating, and a special entrance treatment incorporating artwork for the grade II* listed Kirkaldy Testing Works. This note summarises the reasons for investing in the project, the method of consultation, a detailed response to comments made, and next steps for the project. Why invest in improvements at Prices Street? The proposal to make further improvements to Prices Street has arisen from several key opportunities: 1. The need to create new and improved open spaces to provide for the large numbers of new residents and workers moving into the area. By upgrading the public realm we are better able to provide for our communities and meet their expectations. Open space improvements will include street trees and planting will help contribute to improved air quality, sustainable urban drainage, and a high quality amenity and social space for the enjoyment of local residents, workers and visitors. The council has carried out extensive consultation on a programme of public realm improvement works across Bankside called the “Bankside Urban Forest”. One of the key project proposals to come out of the consultation process was to make further improvements to Great Suffolk Street as a key spine which links Bankside and the Elephant and Castle.

  • Kids Activities in London
    Kids from 7 to 11 years old IN LONDON Step into Land of the Lions Land of the Lions is here! ZSL London Zoo’s newest and most breath-taking exhibit transports visitors from the heart of London to India’s vibrant Sasan Gir, where they can get closer than ever before to mighty Asiatic lions. Shrek’s Adventure London London's newest family attraction! Step into the kingdom of Far Far Away and enjoy a brand new madcap Shrek adventure where amazing DreamWorks animation, captivating story-telling and a good dose of Donkey’s cheekiness awaits. The London Dungeon (all ages) It has all the ghastly gore and black comedy of the old Tooley Street attraction in a bigger and more high-tech package. A jokey celebration of torture, death and disease, visitors can journey back in time to London's plague-ridden streets (rotting corpses, rats, vile boils and projectile vomiting all come as standard) and meet some of the city's unsavoury characters, from Guy Fawkes to demon barber Sweeney Todd. A cast of blood- splattered actors are joined by 'virtual' guests, such as Brian Blessed as Henry VIII, and as well as the 18 different shows and 'surprises' – which could see you on the run from Jack the Ripper or getting lost in London's Victorian sewers – there are two rides to raise the adrenaline: a turbulent boat trip down the Thames towards execution, and a dark drop ride plunging three stories in the pitch black. Note that the London Dungeon is unsuitable for young or easily scared children.

  • Secret Side of London Scavenger Hunt
    Secret Side of London Scavenger Hunt What better way to celebrate The Senior Section Spectacular than by exploring one of the greatest cities in the world! London is full of interesting places, monuments and fascinating museums, many of which are undiscovered by visitors to our capital city. This scavenger hunt is all about exploring a side to London you might never have seen before… (all these places are free to visit!) There are 100 Quests - how many can you complete and how many points can you earn? You will need to plan your own route – it will not be possible to complete all the challenges set in one day, but the idea is to choose parts of London you want to explore and complete as many quests as possible. Read through the whole resource before starting out, as there are many quests to choose from and bonus points to earn… Have a great day! The Secret Side of London Scavenger Hunt resource was put together by a team of Senior Section leaders in Hampshire North to celebrate The Senior Section Spectacular in 2016. As a county, we used this resource as part of a centenary event with teams of Senior Section from across the county all taking part on the same day. We hope this resource might inspire other similar events or maybe just as a way to explore London on a unit day trip…its up to you! If you would like a badge to mark taking part in this challenge, you can order a Hampshire North County badge designed by members of The Senior Section to celebrate the centenary (see photo below).
