It has been a very busy, but productive, year and we now look forward to 2020 with confidence and hope that we can continue to grow in prayer, make new disciples and serve the people of Devon with joy. During 2019 we concluded the largest consultation ever undertaken across the Diocese to refresh our Common Fund system (you can see how our Common Fund pays for ministry right across Devon here: (https://youtu.be/5kJuxvcakAY). At the same time both Diocesan Synod and Bishops Diocesan Council were engaged in a refresh of our vision and strategy, which sees us focus on making new disciples by providing additional support for those in the following demographics: Children and Young Families Young People 17 – 24 Over 60’s Those on the fringe of our worshipping communities We also finished the year with a Diocesan Peer Review. This bi-annual process helps the Diocesan senior teams to share learning and hold each other to account. We received great feedback on the progress made over the past two years and support for our vision and strategy. Thinking ahead to the new year, there is much to look forward to, as plans develop for Joy 2020 - Four long weekends (1 per Archdeaconry) where Bishop Robert, Bishop Jackie and Bishop Nick will be out and about taking part in a whole host of diverse activities to provide something for everyone, such as The Gift of Years, Bish&Chips in Ivybridge, joining the Exeter Chiefs for their match against Leicester Tigers, arts and crafts at RHS Rosemoor, The Big Sing at the Big Sheep, Bringers of Joy dinners (celebrating Unsung Heroes), starting the Ten Tors, school visits, beach events and much, much more..! Further information can be found on our website: https://exeter.anglican.org/bishops-on-a-mission-to-bring-devon-joy-in- 2020/ This is the second year in which we have reported the work of the Central Service Teams in this way. As ever, we are happy to receive your feedback, so please feel free to contact my Executive Assistant, Annemarie Kendell ([email protected]) if you have any suggestions on how we can further improve our reporting in 2020.

(ii) Amend the boundaries of the parishes of: Pinhoe; Broadclyst; Clyst Honiton; and Sowton. This moves all new housing adjacent to Pinhoe into the parish to facilitate focussed outreach. Work in hand includes Pastoral Schemes and Orders which if effected would: (i) Unite the benefice of Axminster, Chardstock, Combpyne with Rousdon and Membury with the benefice of Uplyme with Axmouth and establish a Team Ministry for the new benefice. This would also see the abolition of two Group Ministries. (ii) Transfer part of the parish of Poltimore with Huxham into the parish of Stoke Canon. (iii) Incorporate the area of the parish of Stoke Rivers into the parish of Bratton Fleming and then dissolve the former parish. (iv) Unite the Benefice of Saint Boniface, Devonport and the Benefice of Saint Philip, Weston Mill. (v) Changes to the structure and patronage of the Benefice of Charles with Saint Matthias, Plymouth and the Benefice of Saint John the Evangelist Sutton-on-Plym, Plymouth Saint Simon and Saint Mary Laira. Drafting work has begun on a further four Pastoral Schemes for which no public consultation has yet begun. Work has also begun on a reorganisation of the Clyst Mission Community including the legal structure of Cranbrook. It is anticipated that at least two further Schemes will be drafted in the first quarter of 2020 and at least four consultation processes will begin. Suspensions The patrons’ right of presentation was re-suspended in four benefices during the quarter. One consultation was in progress at the end of the Quarter. The number of suspended benefices is currently lower than at any time during the past fifteen years. Bishop’s Mission Orders Further advice was provided to Unlimited Church in preparation for its transition from a Charitable Company to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. Mission and Pastoral Committees All Four Mission and Pastoral Committees met during the course

A few years after this in 1890 the quay was improved to take passengers. The idea was that Liner passengers would land by tender and be whisked to London and get there well in advance of those that stayed onboard and alighted at Southampton. There was then competition by the London and South Western Railway (LSWR) picking up from Ocean Quay with Brunel’s Great Western Railway (GWR) from Millbay.

  • Lipson and Laira Neighbourhoods
    LIPSON AND LAIRA Sustainable neighbourhood development plan Lipson and Laira is a hillside suburb with attractive Victorian houses and leafy streets sitting alongside later housing development. The neighbourhood benefits from attractive views over the River Plym. The area is cut through by the railway network and, together with the steep hills, restricts walking distances and access for residents. Lipson and Laira is a predominately residential neighbourhood with a wide range of green space. However, there are several shortcomings related to a lack of employment, the way the train line breaks up the neighbourhood and lots of hilly areas. If these issues were addressed, together with improving more facilities and shops, the neighbourhood could achieve higher levels of activity and better links with other neighbourhoods. WHAT WE HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT YOUR COMMUNITY ■ The neighbourhood has a low level of economic ■ The neighbourhood suffers from some poor public activity. The neighbourhood’s limited jobs are largely spaces and lacks a sense of place. One fifth of the land held by people who live locally. is devoted to roads or rail lines. as the train tracks ■ Public transport access to the neighbourhood is form a clear divide. There is also poor provision for insufficient. This was reflected in the results of a public pedestrians and cyclists. consultation which revealed poor links between the neighbourhood and both the City Centre and Derriford. ■ The cluster of shops along the Old Laira Road (Lipson Vale) has had five of its eight retail units continuously vacant for the past four years. This contributes to and is a symptom of the area’s limited economic activity.
