This project is part of a wider pan Cheshire audit of youth arts including; a separate document also for East Cheshire, a sub-regional and county wide audit in Cheshire as well as a report analysis recommendations for youth arts for the future. This also precedes the new structure of Cheshire’s two county unitary authorities following LGR into East and West Cheshire and Chester, which will come into being in April 2009 An audit of this kind will never be fully accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date. Some data will be out-of-date or incorrect as soon as it’s printed or written, and we apologise for any errors or omissions. The youth arts audit aims to produce a snapshot of the activity that takes place in West Cheshire provided by the many arts, culture and youth organisations based in the county in the spring and summer of 2008– we hope it is a fair and balanced picture, giving a reasonable impression of the scale and scope of youth arts activities, organisations and opportunities – but it is not entirely exhaustive and does not claim to be.

Standing proud and tall above the town of the same name its long and rich climbing history lends it an evocative and enthralling atmosphere that is matched by a varied, ever-fascinating array of climbs. The crag is com- posed of fine-grained, un-quarried sandstone that provides just about every style of climbing. Locals delight in its easy accessibility, returning time and again to re-climb favour- ite routes and share good times with friends. Visitors will find a crag quite unlike any other where they can measure themselves against the pioneers of the past on a series of venerable testpieces, from Overhanging Crack to The Beatnik and beyond. Though semi-urban the environment is appeal- ing, almost bucolic; delightful, quiet woods lie below and ravens and peregrines wheel through the skies above. It’s been said before, but next time you are speeding westward on the teeming M56, do not ignore the siren call from above; you won’t regret it. The Climbing So varied are the routes at Helsby that it is impossible to categorise them as falling into one particular style.

Executive Summary 1.1 The Annual Bonfire Period represents a period of increased activity for the Police and Fire and Rescue Services across the UK. The period considered for this report is 18 th October to 8 th November 2010. 1.2 Anti Social Behaviour (ASB) manifests in various forms during this period, which includes Halloween and Bonfire Night itself, and the ‘Mischief Nights’ which become adopted by the young people of the UK. 1.3 Mischief Night is mostly regarded as being the 30 th October, but in some areas the 4 th November is also a ‘Mischief Night’ where teens and pre-teens take the opportunity to ‘prank’ on doorsteps, or in some areas, indulge in more sinister forms of ASB ranging from egg throwing to acts which could be categorised as Arson with intent to endanger life.
