  • Kirkby Stephen Bench Walks
    Case Study October 2020 Kirkby Stephen Bench Walks Increasing exercise and reducing loneliness Local people in Kirkby Stephen have developed a walking map of 60 benches in and around Kirkby Stephen. Six of the benches have been designated as ‘Happy to Chat’ benches. The map provides ideas for interesting town walks as well as scenic riverside and viaduct walks. It gives people the confidence of At the launch: knowing where their next bench is, as well as the Sarah Middleton, Ann opportunity to meet others. Sandell, Cllr Phil Dew, Anne Cradock, Joan Johnstone & Julie Barton Background In November 2019, the Chair of Cumbria Westmorland Federation of Women’s Institutes (WI) gave members a challenge - to do something that would have an impact on their community and help to combat loneliness. This led to the development of the Bench Walks map. Cumbria County Council (CCC) had previously organised a Dementia Awareness Day in Kirkby Stephen. The groups involved in the awareness day became the partners for the Bench Walk project. Anne Cradock, Activity Coordinator of Nateby & Wharton WI, organised the meetings at the Bothy Café in Kirkby Stephen, and a plan was formulated to firstly find and then create a map of the benches around the town and adjacent area. In February 2020, Ann Sandell and Kirkby Stephen & District Walkers are Welcome members arranged three exploratory walks together with the partners and members of the WI. They were surprised to find over 80 benches, rather than the 20 or 30 they had expected. The Project Section of The aim was to enable less mobile people in the community Kirkby Stephen to enjoy the benefits of short accessible walks.

  • Cycle Route from Kirkby Stephen: Mallerstang and Pendragon Castle Ride
    Cycle Route from Kirkby Stephen: Mallerstang and Pendragon Castle Ride The narrow dale of Mallerstang is the uppermost and remotest part of the Eden Valley (leading to the source of the River Eden on Black Fell Moss). You’ll get marvellous views into it as you descend from your highest point across the open fell along a narrow ribbon of tarmac. At the bottom you’ll find the remains of Pendragon Castle built according to legend by Uther Pendragon, father of King Arthur. There’s no public access beyond the gate but you get a good look at it. If you like, carry on cycling up the dale for a while before heading back to Kirkby Stephen. At the start of the ride you’re on a short section of National Route 71 (Penrith - Thirsk) and the Walney to Wear and Whitby Cycle Route (20).

  • Briefing Paper the Big Society: News from the Frontline in Eden August
    AWICS Independence…..Integrity.….Value Adrian Waite (In dependent Consultancy Services) Limited Briefing Paper The Big Society: News from the Frontline in Eden August 2010 Introduction The government’s ‘Big Society’ project was launched by David Cameron in Liverpool on 19th July 2010. As part of this, four areas have been identified as Vanguard Communities where it is intended to ‘turn government completely on its head’. These areas are Eden, Liverpool, Sutton and Windsor & Maidenhead. David Cameron said: “My great passion is building the Big Society. Anyone who’s had even a passing interest in what I’ve been saying for years will know that. “The ‘Big Society’ is…something different and bold… It’s about saying if we want real change for the long-term, we need people to come together and work together – because we’re all in this together. “(We want) Neighbourhoods who are in charge of their own destiny, who feel if they club together and get involved they can shape the world around them. “If you’ve got an idea to make life better, if you want to improve your local area, don’t just think about it – tell us what you want to do and we will try and give you the tools to make this happen.” David Cameron outlined what are to be the three major strands of Big Society which include: “First, social action. The success of the Big Society will depend on the daily decisions of millions of people – on them giving their time, effort, even money, to causes around them. So government cannot remain neutral on that – it must foster and support a new culture of voluntarism, philanthropy, social action.

Just before the pandemic struck, as we submitted our bid for a grant to finance our project ‘Managing Archives’, we felt after a lot of hard work that we could see light at the end of our tunnel. Unfortunately, as you know, it turned out to be a train coming in the opposite direction. Though something of a shock at the time, we are now philosophical about this. The N.H.L. Fund felt that they should cancel all current applications in order to conserve resources for dealing with the crisis then facing existing projects. None of this reflected badly on our submission and there are valuable results from it that, given the chance, we can return to.

  • Labour Market Briefing Mar 2021
    Labour Market Briefing Mar 2021 Appendix to March 2021 Labour Market Briefing This appendix is a supplement to the standard Labour Market Briefing and contains February’s ward level data for the Claimant Count/Rate and the Universal Credit Count/Rate. The ward data shown in the tables is for 2019 administrative wards. Maps showing the unemployment rate data at different geographic levels and by age and gender are available by using the data explorer on the Cumbria Intelligence Observatory website (https://www.cumbriaobservatory.org.uk/data-catalog-explorer/) Unfortunately similar maps for the broader Universal Credit claimant rate are not available on the site. Important Notes: Claimant Count (Unemployment) – this is a measure of the number of people claiming benefits who are available for and actively seeking employment and is therefore the best measure of labour market conditions. It is a count of JSA claimants (contribution based and income based) plus Universal Credit claimants in the Searching for Work conditionality group. Due to the easing of UC jobsearch conditions during the Covid-19 pandemic, this will include some furloughed/self-employed people who have jobs but are claiming top-up benefits (although most will be counted in the broader UC count rather than the unemployment count). Universal Credit – this is a count of all Universal Credit claimants in any conditionality group, including those not working, not seeking or able to work and those claiming whilst in work, including most of those who are furloughed and claiming top-up benefits. It is therefore most appropriately used as a measure of income deprivation rather than specifically as a labour market measure.
