Inventing Our Future Collective Action for a Sustainable Economy
Inventing our future Collective action for a sustainable economy My customised regional economic strategy for the East of England 2008–2031 Where are we now? 1.1 The purpose of the The purpose of the regional economic strategy regional economic strategy Setting a vision for the East of England The East of England has been one of the fastest-growing regional economies in the UK. It benefits from a number of major assets – such as globally renowned research departments and institutes, leading companies in growing markets, major new investment to expand international ports and a strong relationship with London, the world’s leading financial centre. It also has many inspirational places including some of the UK’s finest natural habitats and over a quarter of England’s historic market towns. The next few years are likely to be a period of accelerating change for our region – the pressures of globalisation will increase, we will need to respond to the effects of climate change and our region will continue to experience considerable growth. How we address these challenges and capitalise on our opportunities will contribute to the region’s wider sustainable development objectives and affect the quality of life of the region’s population. This regional economic strategy (RES) sets out a vision, bold targets and priorities so that we can drive forward as a globally competitive region. In short, the strategy shows where we want to go and how we will get there. The strategy is owned by the region, and will be delivered through the collective work of political, business and community leaders and institutions. -
What Is Luton Forum's Sustainable Community Strategy?
Our vision for Luton in 2026 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy ‘We want Luton to be prettier – friendly and nice’, quote from a younger resident at our community consultation event, February 2008 Designed by Communications Luton Borough Council October ‘08 NMD 1729 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Partners Notes 33 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Notes Young people are at the heart of our vision for Luton and have been involved in developing it in many ways. The strategy is illustrated with artwork by young people brought together by SNAP, a local voluntary organisation. The pictures show their ideas of Luton in 2026. 32 1 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Foreword Notes By Councillor Hazel Simmons, Chair of the Luton Forum. Welcome to the Luton Forum’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008-2026. The Luton Forum is a partnership of statutory and mainstream agencies, the voluntary and community sector, and business representatives. We are committed to working together to make Luton a better place to be – both now and by 2026. That may seem an odd fgure but it’s 18 years. We chose it because we wanted our strategy to paint a picture of what Luton will be like when someone born today enters adulthood – what life chances would we like them to have? What opportunities do we want to create for them over the next 18 years? But this strategy is not only focused on young people – we want Luton to be a town where all residents, regardless of age, enjoy a good quality of life. -

If they attended school at all they would have gone to a School run by a charity or religious society, a Dame school, a Sunday school or even a workhouse school. Evidence for the education of girls before the 19th Century is scanty but the Emery’s Charity School in Meppershall was teaching girls to read in the late 17th Century (P29/25/1). -
