  • Holbeck South Bank Cover Appendix 1
    Holbeck, South Bank SPD Summary of Formal Consultation and Responses SUMMARY OF CONSULTATIONS Prior to the formal consultation commencing in March, informal consultation was undertaken with key stakeholders. These were primarily stakeholders with landholdings, or interests in landholdings that are not yet developed or subject to a recent planning application. The draft was issued to Burberry, Commercial Estates Group (CEG), representatives of the owners of Midland Mills, the Holbeck Neighbourhood Forum, Network Rail, and the Highways Authority. Representations from these key stakeholders were considered and where appropriate incorporated into the draft SPD before going out to formal consultation. Formal Consultation took place over six weeks during March to April 2016 . The promotion of the exercise was undertaken via statutory notice in the newspaper, press release, the Council’s website, Social Media, Talking Point, direct e-mail invitation to Ward Members and the MP for Leeds Central, direct e-mail/letter invitation to over 300 individuals or groups who have an interest in HUV or responded to consultations on the Core Strategy; and over 550 direct letter invitations to residents living in the Holbeck, South Bank SPD boundary. On request, officers met with interested parties to discuss the draft SPD and to clarify any matters relating to the document. This included CEG and representatives from the Holbeck Neighbourhood Forum Board. Both parties subsequently submitted a formal representation. The formal consultation exercise included four drop-in sessions at the Round Foundry Media Centre, located in the heart of Holbeck Urban Village. The drop-in’s were spread over the six week consultation period on varying days and times to encourage attendance from different stakeholder groups: o Wednesday 23rd March 2016 – 9 am to 1 pm; o Monday 4th April 2016 – 12 pm to 4 pm; o Thursday 21st April – 9 am to 1 pm; o Tuesday 26th April – 5.30 pm to 7.30 pm.

  • Adventurebegins Case Study
    #AdventureBegins case study Adventure Begins was a collaboration project led by Inclusion North, partnered with West Yorkshire Combined Authority, Leeds City Council, the Yorkshire and Humber Talking Travel group and the LeedsBID digital initiative, Leeds Boost. In this document we will explore the success achieved by combining efforts on this worthwhile project. IN ASSOCIATION WITH #AdventureBegins The Journey Makers Adventure Begins event took place in Leeds on 3rd July and focused on addressing the barriers to travel for people with learning disabilities and/or autism. This one day event saw a host of activities taking place, beginning with an adventure story in Leeds Kirkgate Market, followed by a session on ‘how to plan your journey’. Split into groups, the teams then embarked on their own adventure - a treasure hunt across the City, that led them to Leeds Central Library where they explored useful travel apps, experienced virtual reality and shared their experiences. The objective of this project was about helping to promote choice and independence for people with hidden or physical learning disabilities and/or autism, and sparking the sense of adventure, building confidence and the new opportunities they can explore with the aid of tools such as their mobile phone, apps, and planning ahead. Lucy Virgo from Inclusion North introduces Travel planning begins before the treasure hunt across #AdventureBegins at the Leeds Kirkgate Markets Leeds Journey Planners - #Adventure Begins Case Study How to help our target audience The problem: Knowledge and confidence to travel For people with learning disabilities and/or autism, exploring a new place, a trip to the cinema, a bus ride into town can often have its barriers.
