Northumberland News NORTHUMBERLAND NEWS JUNE 2018 Federation Office: Cresswell House, 11/12 Brenkley Way, Blezard Business Park, Seaton Burn, NE13 6DS Federation Chairman: Hilary Robson Federation Secretary: Ann Pringle Office Hours: Monday - Thursday 9.30 am – 3.45 pm Office Closed All Day Friday Telephone: 0191 217 0808 Email:[email protected] Web: https://sites.google.com/site/northumberlandwi/ Find us on Facebook – northumberlandwi CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE The invitations keep on coming and I have been thrilled to attend several celebrations – every one different but all delightful in their own way. I realise the amount of work that has gone into these celebrations and I am very appreciative. So, thank you to everyone. I attended “Down Your Way” at Longhoughton & Boulmer recently – it was a beautiful day and the two groups set off to walk in high spirits. I was with the “short walk” and it was fascinating learning all about the Village. Our Guide had certainly done her research. As we turned to return, one of our walkers, June Scott from Beadnell WI, unfortunately fell into the road. Despite being very shocked she coped amazingly. Fortunately, one of the Group was a nurse and looked after her extremely well. As you can imagine, because June was in the road, we had to do “traffic duty”! Suddenly a van from RAF Boulmer stopped and out stepped the Squadron Leader to ask if he could help. The answer was yes please. As June was bleeding he gave us his first aid kit, something for her head to rest on and took over directing the traffic. At that point another RAF vehicle arrived and he directed the traffic from the other end. We were all waiting for the Ambulance and kept hearing sirens but then the Police turned up – she was the first responder, instead of the Ambulance. She too was very good and then another Police vehicle arrived. They managed to get June up so that they could get her into a Police car and take her to Alnwick Hospital – at that point a third RAF vehicle arrived – so, in total, we had five vehicles. We then saw June away and drove to Boulmer for our beautiful lunch provided by members of the WI. Representatives from RAF Boulmer were there to give a short talk together with a DVD which was very interesting. I was able to inform them what had happened. It turned out he was their boss and delighted that they had been so helpful and supportive. What a day!! I have spoken to June and, despite being badly bruised, nothing was broken and she is on the mend. We had a very successful Coffee Morning in May when we sold all Morrisons goods alongwith a plant stall and cake stall and raised over £300. It was lovely to see so many of you there and even better to see your smiling faces once you had bought your “bargains”. The winner of the Microwave is number 583 so if that is your number, please contact the Office and we will arrange for you to come and collect it. The Board of Trustees members worked extremely hard to ensure you had a good time. Birthday Booklet – unfortunately we missed Embleton WI from the list of those WIs celebrating 100 years. You may wish to add this to your booklet. Those booklets available afterwards have had it included. I have just learned that Lady Margaret Sutherland, a member of Embleton, has died at the age of 101. She became President in 1953 for an extended period and, from then on until she was in her 90’s, was still active and a member of the Committee. Northumberlandia – 21st June – I can’t wait to see you all at Northumberlandia with your picnics and liquid refreshment. It should be a wonderful event. Don’t forget to bring your WI banner but please let the Office know beforehand. Your Secretary has the information you require re pick up times and places. I have it on good authority that we will have glorious weather, but just in case, bring a brolly with you. Council Meeting – the RGS has forwarded to the office a lipstick case with two lipsticks inside – very pretty box – if it is yours, collect it whenever possible. Hilary I am thrilled to tell you that Margery Wilson, a member of Guide Post & Sheepwash WI, was asked by National to make Harry and Meghan’s card on behalf of all the members of the WI. Margery is very talented and indeed has previously made a card for the Queen’s 89th birthday. WOW – has this ever happened before – I suspect not. Congratulations Margery. There is a description and photographs further through the Newsletter which I am sure you will be eager to read. She will bringing photographs to the Federation Day for us all to see. Please Note that the Office is CLOSED from Thursday 31st May until Monday 11th June. If you have any URGENT business then please contact one of the officers – their details are in the YEAR BOOK. Secretary’s Enclosures: Leaflet from Baynes Travel; Application Forms for: Arty Parties (1) and (2); Treasurer’s Day at Cresswell House; Federation Quiz; New Members’ meeting; Stroll Around Alnwick; Food for 100 Years; Year Book update No. 1; Pick up times for Northumberlandia; Guidance Notes for Secretaries re GDPR. News from the Committees………. Federation Treasurer - Marjorie Read By the time you read this some of you will have visited Cresswell House and realised that we now have a new photocopying machine. I am pleased to tell you that the rental on this updated machine is nearly half of the rental on the old machine. Ann was very fond of the old one so this one had better behave itself is all I can say. I did ask Rob (Managing Director of Total Business) if it did the ironing too but sadly it just does what you expect of a photocopier (one day ladies, one day). Treasurers’ Day - Now I know how much you ladies love the lunches provided by Sue and Dorothy and you also know that last month I said there were going to be two days at Cresswell House to discuss all things relevant to Treasurers. This will not be a workshop - more an open forum - but here’s the really great news. Sue and Dorothy are going to provide lunch for those attending, now how fantastic is that? I’m glad that as Federation Treasurer I will be there. Your Secretary will have the application form for you to complete so I shall look forward to seeing many of you there on either Wednesday 12th or Saturday 15th September. Independent Financial Examiners - Thank you also to those members who have expressed an interest in becoming Independent Financial Examiners, we are now hoping to organise the relevant training for you. Membership Support – Prudence Marks Programme Planning Workshop Tuesday 7th August A workshop has been arranged for Programme Secretaries and members who plan the WI programme on Tuesday 7th August 2018 (afternoon and evening sessions) in Cresswell House. They will not only be able to discuss plans for meetings and activities, but also to share suggestions for speakers. Please complete and return the application which is with your WI Secretary indicating which session you wish to attend. Closing date: Tuesday 10th July New Members’ Evening Tuesday 11th September In the mailing this month, there is an invitation for those new members who have joined WI in the last two years to visit Cresswwell House for a social evening on Tuesday 11th September at 7.00 pm. They will have the opportunity to hear about all that is on offer with the WI and to chat to members of the Board of Trustees, WI Advisers and fellow members. Please complete and return the application indicating the approximate numbers attending. rd Closing date: Monday 3 September PLEASE NOTE: Every WI can hold as much money in their account as they wish – there is no upper limit. ACWW – Marjorie Read You will all remember that I said as soon as we had a new project I would let you know and here is that news. It seems that fundraising is going to be done in quite a different way and will in future cover different types of projects which will all be funded hopefully to the monetary value of £20,000 each. We can subscribe to whichever type of project we wish, for example income generation. Included in your Secretary’s mailing is a copy of the leaflet I received from ACWW setting out the new fundraising project headings and, rather than the Board just making a decision, we thought that you might like to nominate a project for Northumberland Federation. We only want one nomination from each WI but, if you are happy to leave the decision to us that is also alright. However if you do have a favourite please let us know at Cresswell House by the end of June. I already have a cheque to go to the chosen project from The DeWindt Grainger group. At their last group meeting they had as their speaker Dave Routledge. Many of you will know that Dave has motor biked across Africa with Princes William and Harry and has trekked across the plateau in Norway in the footsteps of the Telemark Heroes. Last year at the Coast Group meeting he gave his fee back to me for the Dalit project. Well what a great guy, he has done it again and given his fee back to the DeWindt Grainger group for ACWW.

Annexe D Surveys and research Annexe E References and acknowledgements 2 1 Introduction 1.1 We need to consider whether we need standards for green spaces in Newcastle. What sort of standards, and how to apply them. 1.2 Without standards there is no baseline against which provision can be measured. It is difficult to make a case against a proposal to build on or change the use of existing open space or a case for open space to be included in a development scheme if there are no clear and agreed standards. 1.3 Standards are used to define how much open space is needed, particularly when planning new developments. Local authority planning and leisure departments have developed standards of provision and these have been enshrined in policy and guidance documents.
