Speakers talk on a wide range of subjects January 15th Mercy Hospital Ships Bill Livingstone February 11th Manchester Ship Canal Ray Howells March 11th The Beauty of Minerals Dr. R. Braithwaite April 8th Where there’s a Will there’s a Relative Estelle Weiner May 13th Magistrates in the Community Tony Clark (North Cheshire Bench) June 10th Annual General Meeting and The Work of the Seashell Trust Wendy Bray The Strollers at Bramhall Hall (Online version with added images) 1 Chairman’s Message I am pleased to report that Cheadle & Gatley’s membership level has continued at about two hundred members and our financial position remains in good shape. The number of Interest Groups has also been maintained with a couple of cancellations, matched by some recent additions, notably the re-emergence of Conversational French under Jim Crook and a new group enjoying the History of Art Appreciation led by Tom Fanning. I am also hoping that our Technology Group under David Gane will restart in the spring. It would be remiss of me not to mention our recently presented day devoted to the commemoration of the First World War. A great deal of work was needed by the membership of the various Interest Groups taking part, notably; History, Local History, the Book Groups and the Choir, who all made a very special contribution to produce a memorable day.

    THIS IS TOWERS Towers is not a typical working environment. It is home to over 2000 employees in modern efficient buildings and set in a beautifully landscaped environment. The park is excellently located for rapid access to the city centre, motorway network and the airport. This is Towers. Happy people really do work harder*. Towers has a commitment to provide a positive working experience, with many on site activities – running, use of the Towers bikes, coffee shop, fitness classes, BBQs and food markets. For everyone there is always something to look forward to. *Andrew Oswald, a professor of economics at Warwick Business School 4 5 An engaging place for people is one of the reasons world class companies have been attracted to Towers. John Lewis, British Airways, Regus, Syngenta, Oracle, SPX and Cisco are just some of the companies located here.

  • Stockport – Cheadle Children’S Centre Group
    Children’s centre report Stockport – Cheadle Children’s Centre Group C/O Cheadle and Gatley Children's Centre, Councillor Lane, Cheadle, Cheshire SK8 2LF Inspection date 5–6 March 2014 This inspection: Requires improvement 3 Overall effectiveness Previous inspection: Not previously inspected Access to services by young children and families Requires improvement 3 The quality of practice and services Requires improvement 3 The effectiveness of leadership, governance and Requires improvement 3 management Summary of key findings for children and families This children's centre group requires improvement. It is not good because: Not enough children and parents, particularly those in the most deprived areas and from target groups, are registered or actively engaging in the centre group’s services. The centre group does not work closely enough with local schools and childcare providers to improve attainment and narrow the achievement gap between boys and girls by the end of the Early Years Foundation Stage, particularly in the Cheadle and Gatley and Ladybridge Park areas. There are not enough opportunities for adults to access courses which would help to improve their long-term employability, including English, mathematics and computer courses. Adults’ progress in learning and towards employment is not tracked carefully enough. The leadership, governance and management of the centre group are not sufficiently robust. Data are not used effectively to enable leaders to identify key priorities or to analyse and target resources more carefully to engage families in its services. This hinders the effectiveness of the centre’s development plan to inform target-setting to drive the centre group forward.
