  • Interesting to Know September
    September 2019 Chaplains visit people in their place of work to offer friendship and to listen. Their support is unconditional, non-judgmental, independent and confidential. Interesting to Know.......... Employment continues to increase, with three-quarters of this year’s growth being due to more women working. However, the number of vacancies has been falling for six months, with fewer now than there were this time last year. Henry Boot Developments has been awarded exclusive rights to transform the Central Library on Angel Row into Grade A office space. They are also involved in the regeneration of the former Imperial Tobacco factory - currently underway. In 2018, there were 19.1 million families in the UK, an increase of 8% from 17.7 million in 2008. The City Council spent £4.4 million on cleaning the city streets in the last financial year. This works out at a cost of £13.38 per head of the city’s population. Half the Premier League football teams and 16 out of 24 Championship sides are sponsored by gambling firms. Financial services company Talbot and Muir has doubled its presence in Nottingham by taking out more office space in the city centre. The firm has moved from an office in Clarendon Street to set up its new headquarters in Maid Marian Way. Around half of the children in care in Nottingham have brothers and sisters who are also in care. A forgotten area of the city centre could soon have a new major mixed use development. The planning application for the redevelopment of the junction of Glasshouse and Howard Streets (behind intu Victoria Centre) is for a 90 student bed units and three commercial units over seven and eight storeys.
