  • The Three in One
    The Three in One December 2020 &January 2021 £1 Salcombe ~ Malborough ~ South Huish 1 CHRISTMAS FLOWERS Despite not knowing if there will be any services in the church over the festive season, WE ARE going to decorate the church with flowers! Even if only a few services take place, there are still people who come in the church on most days for some silent prayer or to light a candle, so we want to make it look Christmassy. Hopefully, some of you on the flower rota will be prepared to arrange a window display, a pedestal or the rails next to the choir stalls. If any of you have any artificial flowers that would be suitable in the church decorations, they would be most welcome. We will, of course, be ordering fresh flowers, but a few artificial ones would be useful. Daniel would like the church to be decorated a bit earlier this year and so we are thinking that Friday, 11 December and Saturday, 12 December would be a good time to start. Although most of the places are well distanced, the flower vestry could become a bit overcrowded, so that is why we are suggesting two days for the arrangements. I have also been asked whether the crosses that go on the pillars could be made up, so if there are any of you who would like to decorate one, please let me know as well as letting me know if you would like to help with the other arrangements. (Some of you have already told me that you would like to help).

  • South Hams District Council Submission on Draft Warding Arrangements
    South Hams District Council Submission on Draft Warding Arrangements At its meeting on 9 May 2013, South Hams District Council considered a report which sought to make a recommendation to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) on alternative warding arrangements for the Council. Having considered the agenda item, the Council subsequently resolved that:- 1. both Option A (Cllr Hicks’ Submission) and Option C (Cllr Pannell’s Submission No. 2) be submitted to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) for consideration during their deliberations for a preferred new pattern of warding arrangements; and 2. based upon this decision, delegated authority be granted to the Head of Corporate Services, in consultation with the Leader of Council, to prepare the Council’s submission to the LGBCE before the deadline of Tuesday, 4 June 2013. Please note that for the purposes of this paper, ‘Option A (Cllr Hicks’ Submission)’ is attached at Appendix A and ‘Option C (Cllr Pannell’s Submission)’ is attached at Appendix B. In reaching this decision, it is important to note that the Council has not indicated any preference for either of these Options. As a consequence, the LGBCE is asked to give equal weighting to these Options during its deliberations. In view of the timescales involved and the democratic process necessary for making council decisions, coupled with the fact that the Council has decided to put two Options forward, it has not been possible to produce a particularly detailed submission which outlines some suggested ward names. In both Options, the main towns in the South Hams have been shown as a total electorate with a number of required Councillors.

It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 7.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll- back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.

  • Annual Report Keeping Children Safe Is Everyone's Responsibility
    Keeping Children Safe is Everyone’s Responsibility. Annual report August 2018 - July 2019 In 2018-19... 15,644 children attended CAP UK workshops and assemblies across 84 schools. 100% of staff and headteachers would recommend CAP UK to other schools. “The team were so professional, friendly and passionate about what they were doing. ” Headteacher Children have the right to grow up safe, strong and free. As adults we are failing our children if we don’t act to protect their rights. Unfortunately, in the UK: ➔ 26% of children aged 10-15 report being bullied in the previous 12 months. ➔ 10% children aged 10-15 report being victims of crime. ➔ 15% of girls and 5% of boys in England and Wales are thought to experience some form of sexual abuse before the age of 16. CAP UK Child Assault Prevention builds safer communities for children. Our work with schools gives children the skills to stay safe and the confidence to tell an adult when something is worrying them. We also equip adults with the skills to protect children. Our unique preventative work has been helping children to stay safe in Devon since 1995. Last year we worked with over 15,000 children in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset. Help a child learn how to be safe, strong and free by making a regular or one-off donation through our website. Chair of Trustees View A warm welcome. In my annual CAP report, I will be celebrating the essence of what CAP represents, “Everyone working together to keep children safe”. This year CAP has reached out to 84 schools with a total of 15,654 children, 687 adults including school staff members and parents.

MY DEAR GIRLS AND OLD GIRLS, I hope that this opening will not seem too familiar ; it is certainly sincere, for though I have not had long to get to know the present girls and so far have met only a few Old Girls, the strong family spirit of Stover has already made me feel a real affection for this happy, lively and friendly school. The keynote of this, my first letter, must be one of gratitude : to the Governors for entrusting me with the guidance of this School at an exciting period of its history : to Miss Dence for so generously giving much of her time to tell me of the School's spirit and traditions, which she has created and developed over the years : to parents, staff and girls for their kindly welcome, and friendly attitude ; and Old Girls especially will realise how much I owe to Miss Lidgate's long experience and her constant readiness to try new experiments, and to Miss Gaukrodger for her encyclopaedic knowledge of all the School's activities.
