  • BBG Bulletin Issue
    ISSUE 123 10th January 2020 It seems that every new year brings a certain amount of both melancholy and anticipation in equal measures: melancholy for the year that has been, and anticipation for what lies ahead. And in this twilight time – before the realities of January have truly hit – we take some time to think about what has gone before, and what is to come. First, for the melancholy. 2019 was a roller-coaster of a year for us! Some of the highs include the ever-increasing number of students who threw themselves into outside events like pantomimes, dances and sporting events. We also opened a new wing here onsite at BBG, after a gruelling 50 weeks of building. We had some fantastic successes in our curriculum, especially with our applied resilience lessons where we watched as students developed skills ranging from baking, to skiing, to media presentations. We saw students achieve impressive exams results at GCSE, and go on to spectacular new pathways in their next stages of education. It is always bittersweet to reflect on these things, because we know that they were so special to have experienced them, but now they have gone. But, even as we feel this bittersweet nostalgia, we know that their transient nature is what makes these experiences so special – if they lasted, would we not take them for granted? Now, for the anticipation. 2020. A new year, a new decade, even! All with new, varied, and once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for #TeamBBG. We are so excited for this year! We have a multitude of jaw-dropping trips that will be taking place: France, as ever, for our Year 7 students to develop their resilience and character.

  • Kirklees Question Time Events
    3 Kirklees Democracy Commission Cross Party Working Group – 7 August 2019 Kirklees Question Time Events Purpose of Report This report attempts to evaluate the quarterly Kirklees Question Time events that have been held since the Democracy Commission report was produced in June 2017. It also as puts forward suggestions and recommendations for continuation and improvement of these events going forward. Background The Kirklees Democracy Commission report recommendations include: “Kirklees Council should organise quarterly question time events involving all group leaders. The content and agenda for these events will be set by the citizens of Kirklees. The events will be broadcast and allow the facility for questions to be taken online as well as in person”. The aim was that an ongoing, rolling programme of events, would contribute towards the Council having “a much stronger focus on genuine dialogue and engagement as part of our changing relationship with citizens and communities across Kirklees”. The Question Time events would be part of the “menu of options” for citizens on how they can get involved. They would help contribute to a “change in meetings culture”. They would be open to all, accessible, well organised and informative. Citizens would get to know that they have a regular opportunity to raise key issues with their politicians, and in an arena that would enable and support meaningful dialogue and debate. They would provide an additional opportunity for citizens to hold the Council to account on key decisions and policies, as well as an additional opportunity for politicians to set out rationales behind those decisions and policies.

  • Dear Friends the Fact That It׳S Not Helga Writing This Editorial Indicates
    Dear Friends The fact that it’s not Helga writing this editorial indicates something has happened, which indeed it has. In April 2018 Helga stood down as Managing Director. Helga and I have worked together since 1981. This was firstly in another local Christian Centre, then in forming a counselling team in our local church which 4 years later evolved into UCHM. She has been an inspirational leader for so very many people throughout these years. Her dedication towards fulfilling God’s call to her and her passion to make this place a centre of excellence in counselling has never waned. In 1992 standards began to come in to pastoral counselling when the Association of Christian Counsellors was formed. We quickly joined up as this was a real opportunity to ensure high standards in the care we were giving. As ACC developed and changed so did UCHM. Then we also aligned with what many see as the flagship for best practice in Counselling, BAC (British Association for Counselling – now BACP). One thing inspired us – that Christians should be as professionally trained as those training in colleges – but with the added dynamic of God’s presence in the midst of the counselling for those clients who requested this. Things evolve in life and the training certainly did. Helga gradually got courses accredited by ACC but then secularly accredited by Bilston Community College and National Open College Network. Helga was accredited as a counsellor by BACP but then was successful in getting accredited as a trainer. As the years have passed, the courses have been developed to a much higher level, giving the students all they need to apply for accreditation as counsellors with either ACC or BACP, and progress on to degree courses at Universities.
