These priorities also help to determine the sort of services and projects where Prevention Matters grants can be targeted. The priorities have been identified using the data provided by the Community Practice Workers (CPW) in terms of successful referrals and unmet demand (gaps where there are no appropriate services available), consultation with district council officers, town and parish councils, other statutory and voluntary sector organisations and also through the in depth knowledge of the cohort and the locality that the CLO has gained.

  • 406 the BUILDING of WINSLOW HALL the Compression Which
    406 RECORDS OF BUCKINGHAMSHIRE THE BUILDING OF WINSLOW HALL The compression which Lysons had to apply to his "Magna Britannia" saved him from pitfalls; thus in speaking of Winslow he merely remarked: "Mr. Selby has a seat at Winslow which was built by Secretary Lowndes in the year 1700" (p. 668). When Lipscomb wrote forty years later he was less cautious, for after mentioning the " commodious plain brick edifice with a flight of several steps to the door, over which is the date of its erection, 1700', and the name of William Lowndes," he adds the fatal words "for whom it was built by Inigo Jones " (vol. III., p. 544). Sheahan blindly copied this blunder, Gibbs swal- lowed it in his usual easy way, the Dictionary of National Biography (art. Lowndes) fared no better, and a host of lesser lights went on repeating it until it occurred to someone that as Inigo Jones died in 1652 he could hardly have had much to do with the matter. Mr. A. Clear, Winsiow's latest and best historian, saw the trap, and ascribed the house either to Wren or to Yanbrugh, who was brought into the neighbourhood when he designed the County Hall at Aylesbury. The matter may have been brought nearer to a decision by the discovery of a full and most detailed account of the construction drawn up by, or for, the famous "Ways and Means Lowndes" himself. This is a foolscap book (14 inches by 9 inches), bound in the original parchment covers, with tape fastenings; the watermark of the paper is a fleur de lys sur- mounted by a crown, and with the initials W.

  • Annual Parish Meeting 2018 Minutes
    MINUTES FROM THE PADBURY PARISH COUNCIL ANNUAL PARISH MEETING – 23rd May 2018 The Annual Parish Meeting of Padbury Parish Council was held on Wednesday 23rd May, at 7.30pm, at the Pavilion, Springfields, Padbury. Those present were: Cllrs Long, Dickens, Murray, Williamson, Burton and Morris, Cllr John Chilver, Cllr Llew Monger, Mrs Jo Bursell and Mr John Wrigley. Apologies were received from Cllrs Roberts and Renshell. The meeting was opened by Cllr Long, Chair of the Parish Council, and the minutes of the 2017 Annual Parish Meeting were agreed and accepted. Chair’s report Introduction I was elected Chairman in January 2018, replacing Cllr Ken Roberts who had to stand down for personal reasons. We all give him our grateful thanks for his leadership and commitment to the Council and to the Village throughout his tenure as Chairman. The aim of this report is to reflect on the activities of the Parish Council over the past year. Policy and Governance The Council continues to receive support from our Ward Councillors, and we are always thankful for their guidance and advice. The two major issues over the past year have been the implementation of GDPR and the proposal for a new Unitary Authority. The latter has been debated by both the County council and AVDC, and the decision to “modernise and simplify Local Government” now rests with the Secretary of State. Routine Business We would like to express our grateful thanks to Deborah O’Brien who stood in as Acting Parish Clerk on the resignation of Jo Bonney. Deborah remained in post until Rachel Taylor was appointed as Clerk to the Parish Council.

  • WW2 Evacuation
    Evacuation Evacuees at Wing Village hall awaiting billets, 1940 (ph Wing 102) The fear of air attack by German bombers led the British Government to plan the wholesale evacuation of women and children from the large cities months before war was declared. Nothing like this had ever been attempted before and it was a huge undertaking. Lying next to London with excellent rail and road communications yet with little industry Buckinghamshire was an ideal place to receive evacuees. To some extent evacuation was an ongoing process throughout the war but there are three distinct phases which can be identified. 1. September 1939 The threat of bombs on important cities led the government to start an evacuation programme whereby children and sometimes their mothers were sent out of the cities to stay in rural areas of the country where bombing was less likely to occur. It was a huge operation and it began before the outbreak of war. Alarmed by the declaration of war in September 1939 many people in London sent their children to any friends or relatives in the country, or rented houses outside the metropolis. These were known as unofficial evacuees. The government organised for approximately 31,000 children, mothers and teachers to be received in Buckinghamshire alone. Those being evacuated left London on trains and coaches. In the towns where they were heading church halls and schools were adapted as reception centres and billeting officers were appointed by the local councils to allocate evacuees to the homes of local people. Advert from the newspaper Wendover and Aylesbury News appealing for homes for evacuees (March 21st 1940) Page from a WVS 1945 calendar (D/X 814/8/2) Those allocated to Aylesbury and area were met at the railway station and taken to the town hall where they were split up and sent on coaches to reception centres at the surrounding villages.
