Meeting the Demand 12 Meeting the Demand Winchester Scouts' 10 year Development Plan for growth to 2,000+ Beavers, Cubs, Scouts & Explorers. £10m capex at £1m pa for 10 years is needed for Scout 'Huts' with dual Community use. Amortised over 2013 - 2100 this is the equivalent of only £60 per Scout per year. This compares with the £2,000 per Scout per year, replacement cost of trained volunteers' valuable time that makes Scouts happen. AIMS The aim of this document is to help win hearts and minds for Scouting. Winchester Scouts appeal to Councillors, Parish Councils and Winchester City Council (WCC) to: (a) Support the provision of Scout led facilities in areas of the City where there is currently little or no local provision of adventurous activities for young people aged 6-17; (b) Adopt and support the development of Winchester District Scouts as a key youth and Community Strategy provision measure in the City's 10 year development plan; (c) Provide the part-funding of capital expenditure for new and replacement Scout 'Huts' on WCC or HCC owned land on 99 year peppercorn leases; these Scout 'Huts' to be owned and managed as now by the Scout Association and rented out to local community playgroups, nursery schools, clubs, associations and organisations during the day; and to (d) Require developers to site and provide purpose-built 'Huts' for Scout and dual community use as part of the formal WCC planning approval process for new housing developments.

The success is so great that the known demand exceeds the supply by at least 200 or some 25% of the 775 current places. • Across the City the all-volunteer movement currently delivers the equivalent of over £1.5m of service to local children on an annual replacement cost basis. The benefit of every £1 spent on Winchester Scouts is multiplied by an average 12 times through trained volunteering. • To meet the demand, the 10 year plan is to grow the provision to at least 2,000 for young people aged 6-17. This equates to £4m of replacement annual cost were the trained volunteer services to be fully funded. Scouts are financially self-sufficient on an expenditure basis. • The Scouts' building infrastructure dates back 50+ years with 8 Scout Groups when the City's population was much smaller. Five out of the six Scout owned 'Huts' stand on WCC land with long leases, some of which may no longer be appropriate to future need. • Winchester Scouts now need to engage with their Parishes, 15 Wards, 36 City Councillors, Council Officers and WCC. The aim is to develop and fund what may be a ten year, £10m replacement Scout building plan with community use by day. Amortised over 85 years and 2,000 children, this £10m ten year investment equates to only £60 per child per year. 2. WHO WE ARE: WINCHESTER SCOUTS - AN EDUCATIONAL CHARITY (a) Winchester Scouting exists - as it has since 1907 - to provide adventurous activities and personal development for young people from all backgrounds and creeds irrespective of circumstances. Scouting develops the physical, intellectual, social and spiritual well- being of young people aged 6-17 and helps them to achieve their full potential. (b) In the past year the number of 6-17 year olds in Winchester Scouts grew 9.9% to 775. This was 5 times the UK rate of growth of 1.9%. Winchester's all volunteer leadership team also grew - by an impressive 21% to 155 across the City's 37 Beaver, Cub, Scout and Explorer sections. In addition, there are a further 300 CRBd adult helpers and supporters who make Scouts happen day by day. (c) Winchester Scouts are so successful that the waiting list of 184 is one of the largest in Hampshire. These are children - mainly of Beaver age - for whom there is sadly no room at present. This number is close to 25% of the 775 in Winchester Scouts.

WHAT SCOUTS DO - ADVENTURE FOR EDUCATION (a) The Scouting ethos has always been that young people develop best when they are 'learning by doing', when they are given responsibility, work in teams, take acceptable risks and think for themselves. (b) This is achieved by a focus on ADVENTURE. Much of this revolves around camping at Winchester's own Pinsent Camp Site on the Clarendon Way. This involves backwoods cooking on open fires, hiking and living outdoors. (c) This is only possible because many skilled and trained adult volunteers provide their valuable time for free. They do this for the development of local boys and girls of all backgrounds and creeds, able and less able. (d) The District has its own Activities Team. The activities include archery and shooting; and crate-stacking to familiarise the youngest with a climbing harness, a helmet and heights. Other activities include climbing walls, rock-climbing, mountain walking (Terrain 1 & 2 Summer) and caving and abseiling. (e) Water activities include canoeing and rafting, and Solent based sailing in Scout Association (SA) boats that include a 60ft ocean going, round the world clipper. (f) For our 14-17 year old Explorer Section, the programme is based around the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. Richard Mendelsohn, the Winchester District Scout Chairman is also the Chairman of the Winchester & Eastleigh Duke of Edinburgh Award Association. (g) Scouts of all ages, do many exciting things away from Winchester. For summer 2013 - and among the many camps and expeditions taking place - 24 Explorers and 4 leaders are going to Kanderstag Swiss International Scout Activity Centre (sited by a glacier) for two weeks. Young people lead many of our activities. (h) All older Scouts and Explorers have the opportunity to go to the World Scout Jamboree in Japan in 2015. Hampshire is making it possible for 90 young people to go to Japan. An impressive four or 26% of the 15 leaders selected from Hampshire, come from Winchester Scouts - two contingent leaders and two assistant leaders. (i) Winchester Scouts are ideally positioned to exploit the use of the Hampshire County activity teams. Hampshire is the largest scouting County in the UK with over 16,000 young people. As such it has many of the strongest activity teams in the Country. Hampshire Scouts climbed to the summit of Mount Everest in 2007. (j) In terms of diversity, disability and provision for special needs, Winchester Scouts broadly reflects the composition of the City community. The District and its Groups are resourced and operate in accordance with the Scout Association's Purpose, Principles and Policies on an 'as needed' basis to ensure inclusion. For example, one youngster recently needed two dedicated carers to be able to attend Scouts. A volunteer resourced solution was implemented to establish a dedicated team of 4 Section Assistants who are former Explorer Scouts and currently attend Winchester University. Winchester Scouts are one of the few Hampshire Scout Districts that have a dedicated ADC (Assistant District Commissioner) for Special Needs. THIS IS WHAT WE DO FOR 775 YOUNG PEOPLE IN WINCHESTER ... 4 OBJECTIVES, ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE The aim is to always improve the quantity and quality of Scouting delivered to 6 - 25 year olds across Winchester District. This is measured by the following metrics and criteria: OBJECTIVES ACHIEVEMENTS NEXT STEPS in 2012 for 2013 Joining List: +9% to 184 Target opening of 9th & 10th Groups Beavers +19% to 191 2nd Beaver colonies for more Groups Cubs +4% to 263 Fill-out understrength Packs 1.

  • Hampshire and the Company of White Paper Makers
    HAMPSHIRE AND THE COMPANY OF WHITE PAPER MAKERS By J. H. THOMAS, B.A. HAMPSHIRE has long been associated with the manufacturing of writing materials, parchment being made at Andover, in the north of the county, as early as the 13th century.1 Not until some four centuries later, however, did Hampshire embark upon the making of paper, with Sir Thomas Neale (1565-1620/1) financing the construction of the one-vat mill at Warnford, in the Meon Valley, about the year 1618. As far as natural requirements were concerned, Hampshire was well-endowed for the making of paper. Clear, swift chalk-based streams ensured a steady supply of water, for use both as motive power and in the actual process of production. Rags, old ropes and sails provided the raw materials for conversion into paper, while labour was to be found in the predominantly rural population. The amount of capital required varied depend­ ing on the size of the mill concerned, and whether it was a conversion of existing plant, as happened at Bramshott during the years 1640-90, or whether the mill was an entirely new construction as was the case at Warnford and, so far as is known, the case with Frog Mill at nearby Curdridge. Nevertheless Hampshire, like other paper-making counties, was subject to certain restraining factors. A very harsh winter, freezing the water supply, would lead to a cut-back in production. A shortage of materials and the occurrence of Holy days would have a similar result, so that in 1700 contemporaries reckoned on an average working year of roughly 200 days.2 Serious outbreaks of plague would also hamper production, the paper-makers of Suffolk falling on hard times for this reason in 1638.3 Though Hampshire had only one paper mill in 1620, she possessed a total of ten by 1700,4 and with one exception all were engaged in the making of brown paper.

  • Otterbourne Parish Plan
    1.0 Purpose of the Document The purpose of the document is to provide the Countryside Agency, Hampshire County Council and Winchester City Council with a perspective on how the residents of Otterbourne wish to see local issues that affect their quality of life managed over the period October 2004 to October 2009. It will give Otterbourne Parish Council, once they have formally adopted the Parish Plan, the consensus of the village and should give emphasis to the Parish Council's input to the wider future of the community. 2.0 Introduction The Government introduced a Rural White Paper - Our Countryside: the future - in November 2000 sponsored by the Countryside Agency, with the aim of encouraging local communities to take a more active role in deciding what is important to them and how each community sees itself developing over the following few years. The aim of a Parish Plan is to allow everyone in the Parish to have a chance to say what they think about the various social, economic and environmental issues affecting their community and how they would like to see it improved for the future. The proposal to prepare a Parish Plan was presented to the village at a meeting in July 2002, supported by the Countryside Agency and Winchester City Council. The meeting concluded with a request for volunteers to assist in the project. In September 2002, Otterbourne Parish Council notified the Countryside Agency of its intent to commence with the preparation of a Parish Plan. In March 2003 the inaugural meeting of the Otterbourne Parish Plan and Village Design Statement project team took place, by which time 40 volunteers had come forward to offer their assistance in a variety of roles from Project Leader to "Foot Soldiers" who were prepared to distribute letters and collect surveys.
