County Vice Chairman: Mark Hogan County Secretary: Kimberley Thornton County Treasurer : Mark Hogan County Manager: Chris Cunningham. County Welfare Officer : Beverley Davies. County Welfare Officer: Ian Poole. County Managers Assistant: Louise Beilby. Community Fundraiser Elizabeth Hughes County PA Co-ordinator: Terry Goodall . County Standard Bearer: Ernest Sawdon (York Branch) From the County Chairman Hi everybody, This is the first County Newsletter since last July and I would like your views to be aired, your Branch activities to be advertised and your events displayed. So please use the Newsletter and let other Branches know what you are doing. We are trying and improve communications between County and Branches, but it is proving to be an uphill climb. We communicate, but there is very little feed back to the County office, consequently trying to find articles for this second edition of the County Newsletter has been hard work for Kimberley. Our 90 th Anniversary is upon us and I am hoping you are all doing something to commemorate and celebrate this great year which in turn will create greater awareness, strengthen the membership, raise the income of the Poppy Appeal and recruit additional supporters. PLEASE let us have details of any events so we can publicise them and display your achievements. Amalgamation The Membership Council has approved the plan to amalgamated North and East Yorkshire Counties. A small steering committee comprising members of the executives from both counties has been set up. The first And second meetings was on Saturday 10th April and Saturday 7 th May. A further meeting is to be held on Tuesday 7th June. There will be a Special Joint General Meeting of both Counties to elect a County Chairman, Officers and Executive members, on Saturday 23rd July 2011, at the Easingwold. Kimberley has been sending out details and nomination forms to branches. It is hoped that the new County and Youth Standards will be dedicated in time for the SGM, so they can be presented. Those elected will serve until the first County Conference, which will be held January 2012, when a Chairman and Officers will be elected for a three-year period. The Executive Committee will be elected, serving in the first instance for periods three, two and one year. The number of individual votes cast for each person will determine the respective terms. Best wishes to you all. Colin Northridge MBE. Your County Committee Steve Jewell, Scarborough ; Andrew Cowie, Ripon ; Angela Shepherd, County Central ; Fergus Osborne, Guisborough ; George Murgatroyd, Tadcaster; Alex Bentley , Skipton; Elwyn Pickering , Harrogate; Ray Ashby , York Tony Anderson , Riders Branch; Andy Monger , Riders Branch COUNTY RETURNS The County Officers THANK ALL Groups and Branches who submitted their Branch MS1’s to the County Office by 31 st December 2009 as requested. Details of Branch Officials etc; have been updated in the County handbook, which we have now just received from the printers and is currently being distributed through Group and mail shots. The details of those branches who have omitted to send in their MS1’s will not be updated in the Handbook this year. R&P Accounts Well done to all those Branches that have submitted their annual accounts. The Royal Charter Governing Rules 86 states:- Within 3 months after the close of its financial year, or within 1 month after the audit, every branch must send a copy of its accounts to its County Office, together with the report of the independent Examiners or qualified auditor. This means that the branch must send in its R&P accounts by 31 st December of each year. Currently we only have 2 outstanding, Well done and thank you . National Conference This years Conference is to take place at Telford International Centre, St Quentin Gate, Telford, Shropshire, on Saturday and Sunday 21 st and 22 nd May 2011. Sessions Saturday 9:30 – 1230, 1400 - 1730 Sunday Sessions 9:30 – 1230, 1400 – 1730 All those branches who nominated a delegate to attend and have been accepted by the Conference Committee should have received all of their delegate credentials in the post. Should any branch that has qualified, not yet received them, to contact the County office ASAP. For future interest branches are reminded that the Jim Prince fund was created in order to provide financial assistance to small branches, specifically to help defray the costs of sending a Delegate to Annual Conference. Each Regional Manager may annually nominate two branches to the Board of Trustees to apply to the fund. Branches with a membership of 100 or fewer, regardless of category are eligible to apply for assistance. To apply for the fund for next years National Annual Conference, please submit your Branch Delegate application form along with a covering letter to the County, by the due date specified in the Annual Conference Special Circular. Please be aware that only ONE Branch per County may be submitted for consideration. This year we received no nominations, let’s change that for next year. County Directory The directory that has been produced and issued to branches is a temporary handbook. There will be a further full combined and completed copy produced and distributed to all the branches after The price of Gold Badges the SGM 23 rd July. There was an omission in the current has risen to £168.00 per Badge due to directory, with an amendment page enclosed for all. It would be the increased cost of gold appreciated if you could provide me with any further amendments to ensure the revised directory will be up to date Forces Discount Scheme Veterans and families can benefit from discounts offered by over 1,100 companies through the free MOD Discount Scheme. Discounts and special deals are available from a wide range of providers, on everything from legal services to holidays and theme parks.

The group has raised money to buy 20 sheepskin wheelchair seat and back covers which have been presented to Lt Col Mel Pears, commanding officer of 15 Brigade, Personnel Recovery Unit in York, by branch president Coun Geoff Craggs, chairman Ken Richardson and other members, in Hall Square in Boroughbridge. Using natural sheepskin for the covers helps prevent sores because of its compression resistance, its breathability and its ability to retain moisture Lt Col Mel Pears (fourth from right) receives one of the sheepskin covers from members of the Boroughbridge branch of the Royal British Legion, from left, Janet Taverner, president Coun Geoff Craggs, Angels Collin, Aiden Foster, A rthur Unitt, John Reeves, chairman Ken Richardson EASINGWOLD BRANCH On Friday 29 th April, The George Hotel in Easingwold provided complimentary coffee, scones with cream.

BRANCH ACCOUNTS In the near future the facility will be available for those branches to submit their annual branch accounts electronically. The Legion will be introducing a new electronic system called “Legion Arms Accounting System”. The National Training Team is to visit our Areas and give LAAS training to all County Secretaries/Membership Administrators/County Treasurers and any Branch Treasurers who would wish to be trained. The National Training Team will link in with the existing training programme for Branch Treasurers, and partly they will need to offer separate courses. I have been asked to identify which branch treasurers may be interested in attending this course. No dates have yet been fixed yet but will start in May and carry on to September. To register your interest in attending this course, please make contact with the County Secretary, [email protected] or 01904 550577 It is the Legion’s Mission to be; The organisation which is, and is recognised as, the number one provider of welfare, comradeship, campaigning and Remembrance for the Armed Forces community. The Legion provides financial, social and emotional support to Service people, past and present, and their dependants. We are a major campaigner for improvements to legislation, public policies and statutory services. Our nationwide network of volunteers and staff work locally – often with partner organisations – to help those in need. We provide funds for those living in poverty and help for others to live independently. We provide residential care for vulnerable, older people and offer services to improve the quality of life to isolated or excluded people and families. We also help others to develop their vocational skills to find suitable employment. We are the national custodian of Remembrance – we inform people of all ages about the importance of remembering those from the British Armed Forces who have made the ultimate sacrifice, and those who fought and are still fighting for the freedom we enjoy. The Legion is embarking on an ambitious five year strategy that will lay the foundations for our Centenary by; 1.

  • Car Parking Charges for the Station, Richmond Swimming
    CAR PARKING CHARGES FOR THE STATION, RICHMOND SWIMMING POOL AND GYM CUSTOMERS ARE ON THE WAY; HOWEVER, YOU CAN MAKE THEM FAIRER IF YOU ACT IMMEDIATELY BY EXPRESSING YOUR VIEWS Richmondshire District Council is proposing to introduce car parking charges in The Station Yard Car Park this spring. We understand that the ticket machines have been ordered . This car park is currently used by customers of The Station, Richmond Swimming Pool and Liberty Gym. All of these buildings and the activities which take place in them are organised and maintained through the efforts of two local volunteer-led charities: The Station – Is operated by The Richmondshire Building Preservation Trust The Pool and Gym – Are operated by the Richmond Leisure Trust If you regularly use these ‘much loved’ charity-run-facilities , and choose to park your vehicle in the council owned Station Yard Car Park, you will shortly be charged for your visit. The charities that operate these facilities believe that what is being proposed will have an immediate and detrimental impact on these community amenities which are run on a ‘not-for profit’ basis - and could ultimately force them to close. The local authority appear to have little or no relevant research on which to justify their position. Your help is needed NOW to ensure that the views of people like you, who value The Station, pool and gym, to make your voices heard on this critical issue by writing to or phoning your district councillor, if you live in Richmondshire or writing to the head of the local authority if you don't.

  • Conservation Areas
    APPENDIX A (A-G) Aldbrough St. John Conservation Area Aldbrough St. John Conservation Area was designated in 1975. The following brief statement identifies the environmental qualities which led to designation, and which the District Council consider should be preserved or enhanced as the case may be. Although the name suggests association with an ancient fortification, and a C16th reference to a ruin of this type exists, any trace of remains has long since disappeared, always assuming the source had not confused Aldbrough with the nearby fortifications at Stanwick. The village is very much an agricultural settlement, with strong associations with the Duke of Northumberland who acquired and constructed property for his estate from the early C19th. The distinctive feature of the village is the broad, sweeping village green around which the houses and cottages are arranged, which produces an unusual blend of townscape and landscape. In common with many agricultural and estate settlements, houses and cottages are spaciously arranged, a characteristic magnified in the case of Aldbrough by the sheer size of the village green. Aldbrough is a village of contrasts, from the wide open spaces of Low Green complimented by the attractive open paddocks south of Aldbrough Beck, to the more formal and smaller High Green, and the flowing sequence of tightly enclosed spaces between Cordilleras Farm and Kilton Grange. Each has its particular quality but in combination they produce a townscape pattern which is unusual in Richmondshire. The Conservation Area boundary is drawn tightly around the historic core ( except at the east end of the green where important tree belts and open areas are included).

  • Richmondshire District Council Does Not Currently Meet the Criteria for Electoral Inequality Ie
    District Ward Boundary Review Richmondshire District Council Stage One - Council Size Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (April 2017) 1 Introduction The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) is an independent body that is responsible for conducting boundary and electoral reviews of principal authorities in England. Richmondshire District Council does not currently meet the criteria for electoral inequality ie. 30% of wards having a variance greater than +/- 10% of the average electorate per Member, however this threshold is likely to be reached in the very near future. As a result the Council decided in July 2016 to request the LGBCE to undertake an electoral review. This request was accepted and the review was included in their programme. The electoral review will examine whether the boundaries of wards within the local authority area need to be altered to ensure fair representation at the local government elections. In Richmondshire it has been identified that six of the twenty four wards have imbalances. The table below sets out the current imbalances in the District. No (%) Number of wards (>10%) 5 Number of wards (>20%) 0 Number of wards (>30%) 1 The Wards with the above variances are: (%) Brompton-on-Swale & Scorton 11% Hipswell 12% Hornby Castle 29% Middleton Tyas -14% Scotton -12% Swaledale -11% The main reasons for the electoral inequality arises from new housing developments, under registration of service personnel and population changes, the detail of which will be explained in the following sections. North Yorkshire County Council is not within the LGBCE programme for review and the County Council have indicated they will not be requesting a review of the County Divisions.

  • Historical Journey Along the River Tees and Its Tributaries
    Historical Journey along the River Tees and its Tributaries Synopsis The document describes a virtual journey along the River Tees beginning at its source; the perspective is as much historical as descriptive of the current scene. Where significant tributaries join the river, they also are tracked back to their start-points. Particular attention is paid to bridges and watermills because of their intimate associations with the rivers, but nearby buildings, both religious and secular are also given attention. Some people have been specially important to developments associated with the river, and brief biographical notes are provided for them. Finally, I would stress that this is very much a personal account dealing with facets of interest to me during the 30 years or so that I spent living and working near the River Tees. Document Navigation I do not provide either a contents list, or an index, but to aid navigation through the document I give here page numbers, on which some places appear first in the text. Place Page No. Source of the River Tees 3 Middleton-in-Teesdale 5 Barnard Castle 9 River Greta confluence 15 Piercebridge 18 Darlington 20 Yarm 28 River Leven confluence 35 Stockton-on-Tees 36 Middlesbrough 37 Saltburn-by-the-Sea 46 Hartlepool 48 There is a sketch map of the river and the main tributaries in Table T1 on Page 50.
