Together, these services keep neighbourhoods and town centres clean; maintain parks and open spaces; look after play areas, allotments and sports pitches; repair potholes, pavements, walls and drainage; protect and enhance the countryside; keep the highway network open in bad weather; and deal with a range of highway emergencies round the clock. Getting these fundamental, universal services right - provided in a responsive, efficient and customer-focussed way - is central to the delivery of the Council’s Vision 2024 and its ambition to be the Best Borough in the North; it also supports the ‘right first time’ approach in the Customer Services Strategy to reduce avoidable customer contact and improve the Council’s reputation. 2.2 Andrew Pitts also informed the meeting about the council recent recruitment drive for Community Safety Wardens .Safety Wardens work across Calderdale to help keep our communities safe.

  • The Position Is Looking Forward to Welcoming Into Its Lively, Talented and Active Family a Priest-In-Charge to Lead Us with New Vision to a Revival
    All Saints’ Church, Halifax, The Position is looking forward to welcoming into its lively, talented and active family a priest-in-charge to lead us with new vision to a revival. Wordcloud of responses to a recent Congregational Survey asking which are the most important qualities expected of a new priest Page 2 The Prospects All Saints’ has spent some time learning, reflecting and praying on the theory of growth in terms of our relationships with God, with each other and with People Out There. There has been a certain amount of progress, particularly in discipleship so that a number of people have stepped forward to take up positions of responsibility with aptitude and enthusiasm. The pastoral care related to this activity is an important consideration going forward. There is great enthusiasm for continuing to develop discipleship; and we seek to grow in numbers, faith and finances with new leadership from an incoming priest-in-charge. Having spent much time and effort on developing a Welcome Garden, which should have been officially opened in May 2020, the church needs someone who can enthusiastically lead forward the detailed and widespread programme of events and projects a dedicated team has put in place. With this we hope to encourage the community into our precincts with an intention of leading them a step further into our church building and our church family. The enthusiasm and commitment shown over the past few years for the Welcome Garden Project and the keen interest in seeing it used, reveals an eagerness to reach out into the surrounding area.

  • Drama on 4 and Walter Presents Sponsorship Opportunity Jan-Dec 2021 a Word from Channel 4’S Head of Drama
    Drama on 4 and Walter Presents Sponsorship Opportunity Jan-Dec 2021 A word from Channel 4’s head of Drama We are so excited to be back in production with a raft of brilliant new dramas. Highlights will include IT’S A SIN by Russell T Davies starring Keeley Hawes and Olly Alexander (lead singer of Years and Years) – an outspoken, entertaining and heart-breaking drama about a gang of friends living it up in London in the 80s, against the backdrop of the HIV epidemic. We also have the 4th series of ACKLEY BRIDGE, returning with a new cast, and a brand new 30’ format to better reflect the way young people consume TV. BEFORE WE DIE, starring Lesley Sharpe is an edge-of-your-seat police thriller about a female police officer whose son goes undercover in a dangerous crime family - a remake of the highly successful Swedish series. But the jewel in the crown is 90s set true crime drama MY NAME IS LIZZIE starring Niamh Algar and Eddie Marsan, a series about the botched investigation into the murder of Rachel Nickell. CLOSE TO ME, starring Connie Nielson and Christopher Eccleston, a psychological thriller about a woman who must piece together the truth of the last missing year of her life after a fall down the stairs (or was she pushed?) Finally we’ve got the first terrestrial UK broadcast of THE GREAT, starring Elle Fanning and ex-Skins star Nicholas Hoult, a high-octane, outrageous, feminist take on the young life of Catherine the Great, by the writer of The Favourite.
