Introduction 1.1 Background This impact assessment reviews the impacts of the Culture Strategy published in December 2018 (comprising one culture and one sport strategy). It should be read with those documents. The Culture Strategy sets out the Mayor’s vision, and the policies and proposals behind it, for culture and sport in the city. The culture section of the strategy covers four priorities: • Love London – more people experiencing and creating culture on their doorstep. • Culture and Good Growth - supporting, saving and sustaining cultural places and spaces. • Creative Londoners – investing in a diverse creative workforce for the future. • World City – a global creative powerhouse today and in the future. The Mayor’s existing legal powers and responsibilities in relation to the Culture Strategy are set out in sections 41, 42, 42B, 43, 376 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (GLA Act 1999). This version of the impact assessment has been updated to reflect revisions to the draft strategy and the feedback from the consultation which took place from 23 March – 19th June 2018. 1.2 Method This Integrated Impact Assessment (IIA) of the Culture Strategy (encompassing one culture and one sports strategy) is comprised of an Equality Impact Assessment, Health Impact Assessment and Community Safety Impact Assessment and due regard for sustainable development in the capital. The geographical scope of this Culture Strategy is Greater London. The GLA Act 1999 sets out the Mayor’s statutory responsibility to develop a Culture Strategy that contains policies relating to culture, media and sport. Due to the growth of the culture and sport policy areas within the GLA, in particular since the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the strategy is published in two parts. One part covering culture and the other sports. This Integrated Impact Assessment focusses on the culture section of the strategy referred to herein as the Culture Strategy. The Integrated Impact Assessment (IIA) must also review the Culture Strategy (encompassing one culture and one sports strategy) against the GLA’s overarching IIA Framework Objectives, which are broader. The inclusion of these additional Framework Objectives, for example objective three (Climate change mitigation) or twelve (Economic competitiveness and employment), means that the IIA process also addresses sustainability and to an extent climate change. These aspects of impact are however covered more fully by spatial planning strategies such as the current Supplementary Planning Guidance for Culture in the Night Time Economy. The GLA has a total of 24 overarching IIA Framework Objectives. The GLA IIA Guide (2009) suggests that as part of the scoping exercise preceding this draft report, the number of IIA objectives should be limited to 12-18. 3 This IIA will consider a total of 12 IIA Framework Objectives, selected as proportionate and relevant in consultation with GLA stakeholders. Three of these matches the three core parts of this IIA. The remaining nine have been grouped thematically under Equality, Health and/or Community Safety. The method for assessing the Equality impact of the Culture Strategy differs from the method for Health and Community Safety. The Equalities impact assessment looks at each of the four strands in turn, while the Health and Community Safety assessment looks at the level of policy actions, which are grouped into common themes. 1.3 Selected IIA Framework Objectives IIA objective Description In/out of scope Environment 1 Air Quality Reduce emissions and Culture: Out of scope of this IIA. concentrations of harmful Creative and cultural industries would atmospheric pollutants, support this via policies set out in the and reduce exposure, London Plan, Environment, Transport particularly in areas of and Economic Development poorest air quality Strategies.

  • London Ethnography
    London Ethnography Field research conducted April 9-13, 2012 by a team from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary from Louisville, KY. Research consisted largely of observation and interviews with local shop owners, religious leaders, and residents. This ethnography is broken down by each of the four boroughs in which the research was carried out. The ethnography concludes with an analysis of the cultural dynamics discovered through the research and a brief strategy for church planting among ethnic groups found in London.

Though the findings are presented in a deductive format the writer had tried his best to obtain the information through an inductive approach. The paper also reflects the time limitation of the research conducted and the writer’s judgment and interpretation of the data. Some names of the people given on this paper have been changed. All interviews reported on this paper were conducted from April 9-13 at Stratford, London and therefore no specific date or time will be mentioned again in the footnotes. Location and Geography Stratford is located in the London borough of Newham, about 6 miles east northeast of Charing Cross, a location considered as the center of London.

  • The Theological Socialism of the Labour Church
    ‘SO PECULIARLY ITS OWN’ THE THEOLOGICAL SOCIALISM OF THE LABOUR CHURCH by NEIL WHARRIER JOHNSON A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Theology and Religion School of Philosophy, Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham May 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The thesis argues that the most distinctive feature of the Labour Church was Theological Socialism. For its founder, John Trevor, Theological Socialism was the literal Religion of Socialism, a post-Christian prophecy announcing the dawn of a new utopian era explained in terms of the Kingdom of God on earth; for members of the Labour Church, who are referred to throughout the thesis as Theological Socialists, Theological Socialism was an inclusive message about God working through the Labour movement. By focussing on Theological Socialism the thesis challenges the historiography and reappraises the significance of the Labour

  • Presence and Engagement
    PRESENCE AND ENGAGEMENT The churches’ task in a multi Faith society 2 FOREWORD The seeds of this report have taken almost four years to germinate. They were first planted by Michael Ipgrave, who was then the Inter Faith Adviser to the Board for Mission and Secretary of the Inter Faith Consultative Group. We were aware of the huge changes affecting the interfaith scene in the light of 9.11 and the key role many parish clergy played along with Faith Leaders generally in keeping their communities together. But we were also aware of the demographic changes that were having a profound effect on the ministry and mission of parishes in the inner areas of our major cities. We needed to offer some reflection to the Church on the implications of these changes for the fundamental raison d’etre of parishes serving in these areas. What did it mean for the parish church to be ‘there’ for all the people, when in some parishes more than 50% of the people belonged to communities of faith other then Christian? As the Church of England we needed to reflect more deeply on our ecclesiology. What in this context, is the distinctive call of God to us as the established Church of the land? Michael’s title, Presence and Engagement, is a beautifully succinct way of expressing our dilemma and suggesting an answer. However the more we reflected on the task before us the bigger it became. Providentially for us, Guy Wilkinson, the former Archdeacon of Bradford, became free and was able to give two and a half days a week to this initiative.

London since the 1960s At first sight, the statistical evidence for the long-term decline of Christian practice in London seems consistent with a narrative of inexorable secularization. In the Census of Religious Worship of 1851 Sunday attendances amounted to 37.0% of the population; in the Daily News survey of 1902-3 they were 22.2%; in the UK Religious Trends survey of 2005 only 8.3%.1 Such bald statistics, however, need to be carefully interrogated: in particular the 1851 Census’s reliance on estimates by ministers and church officials and its failure to allow for double and triple attendances by individuals mean that it almost certainly over- represented the level of mid-nineteenth century practice.
