Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 135 (2005), 423–442THOMSON; TOMBSTONE LETTERING IN DUMFRIES AND GALLOWAY | 423 Research in inscriptional palaeography (RIP). Tombstone lettering in Dumfries and Galloway George Thomson* ABSTRACT A comprehensive and detailed survey was made of lettering on all accessible tombstone inscriptions in Dumfries and Galloway. Using statistical and other analytical techniques, a large amount of data was extracted. From this, comparisons were made with data from the author’s previous study of inscriptional lettering throughout Scotland. The distributions of a number of letterform attributes were mapped, in some instances revealing clear geographical trends. The interesting subregional groupings in Dumfries and Galloway identified in the initial national survey were confirmed when the comprehensive data were used, though the distinctions were not so clear-cut. The rise of three more or less distinct area profiles identified using 42 letterform attributes is likened to the development of a dialect or accent, not learned by imitation, but subconsciously acquired as a consequence of living in local divergent communities. INTRODUCTION for the study of local communities, traditions and tastes. Moreover, it can be used as a cultural Lettering on tombstones of the late and post- marker.

The author (Thomson 2002) or by statistical analysis of data undertook a survey of gravestone lettering extracted from a range of seemingly abstruse throughout Scotland based on a sample of 132 attributes. The analysis of data based on 42 mainland burial sites (Thomson 2001a). -
Appendix-2019-89-Child-Poverty-Action-Plan.Pdf
Appendix-2019-89 Borders NHS Board Meeting Date: 27 June 2019 Approved by: Tim Patterson, Director of Public Health Author: Allyson McCollam, Associate Director of Public Health CHILD POVERTY ACTION PLAN Purpose of Report: The purpose of this report is to update the NHS Board on the development of the Scottish Borders Child Poverty Action Plan in response to the Child Poverty (Scotland) Act 2017. Recommendations: The Board is asked to note and approve Child Poverty Action Plan. Approval Pathways: This report has been prepared in consultation with the key members of the CPP Reducing Inequalities Delivery Group. This Plan has been approved by the Community Planning Partnership on 13th June 2019 for submission to the Scottish Government in June 2019. Executive Summary: This is the first such annual Local Action Plan report for Scottish Borders. It describes the challenges faced in measuring child poverty locally, how this plan links to existing activity, what we have delivered in the reporting period 2018 /19 and what we are committed to delivering over the 2019/20 financial year. This will form the basis for identifying areas that we would like to develop further in the future. It is recognised that partnership is key to the achievement of the outcomes we want for our children, young people and families in Scottish Borders, and this will mean working collaboratively to tackle the drivers of child poverty: income from employment, income from social security and cost of living. The areas for action are as follows: Employability Housing Customer services including welfare benefits advice Education Health and wellbeing The health and wellbeing workstream includes the NHS duty to provide financial inclusion pathways for families with children from the antenatal stage and beyond. -
