The Trust was set up following the murder by armed criminals of three police officers at Shepherds Bush in 1966. The late Sir William Butlin, at the time anonymously, gave £100,000 for the establishment of a trust to help in cases where police officers were killed or injured on duty. Public reaction to the crime was such that the fund soon increased to more than £1⁄4 million. The Police Dependants’ Trust was formally constituted by the signing of the Trust Deed on 21 December 1966 and registration with the Charity Commission in January 1967. The Trust is honoured with the patronage of HM The Queen. Shortly after the formal establishment of the Trust, an appeal was launched to raise £1 million to ensure sufficient income to help existing and future beneficiaries. The appeal was successful but growing demands on the Trust make it necessary to continue building up the Trust’s resources to provide for future requirements.

Jeffrey Howard] Introduction / Cyflwyniad A Word of Welcome from David Melding AM, Deputy Presiding Officer Stand / Sefyll Hymn / Emyn – God is Love: let heav’n adore him; Words: Timothy Rees Tune: ‘Hyfrydol’ R.H.Pritchard God is Love: let heav’n adore him; God is Love: let earth rejoice; Let creation sing before him, And exalt him with one voice. He who laid the earth’s foundation, he who spread the heav’ns above, he who breathes through all creation, he is Love, eternal Love. God is Love: and he enfoldeth all the world in one embrace; with unfailing grasp he holdeth every child of every race. And when human hearts are breaking under sorrow’s iron rod, then they find that selfsame aching deep within the heart of God. God is Love: and though with blindness sin afflicts the souls of men, God’s eternal loving-kindness holds and guides them even then. Sin and death and hell shall never o’er us final triumph gain; God is Love, so Love for ever o’er the universe must reign. Remain standing / Parhau i Sefyll iii memorial brochure 13_memorial brochure 05 13/09/2013 12:04 Page iv The Bidding and opening prayers Led by – Revd Gethin Abraham-Williams, former General Secretary, Churches Together in Wales: CYTUN We meet here today to remember before God the men and women of our police service who laid down their lives in the service of their country, to honour them and give thanks for their sacrifice. We also hold before God their families, friends and colleagues; all who are bereaved and mourn the loss of their loved ones. Jesus said to his disciples, “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.’ Almighty God, who through the death of your dear Son Jesus Christ redeemed the world, setting us free from the slavery of sin and death; comfort us as we mourn the loss of loved ones who have laid down their lives in the cause of justice. Dispel the darkness of grief with the light of your love. Strengthen us with the grace of your Holy Spirit that we may continue to strive for the cause of right, and that, following the good example of those who served you and are now at rest, we may at last enter into the fullness of your eternal glory. Amen. Confident that neither life nor death can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus, let us pray as he taught us: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done; on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen MINISTRY OF THE WORD / GWEINIDOGAETH Y GAIR Sit / Eistedd Bible Reading –Psalm 23 [New King James Version] Read by – Carwyn Jones AM, First Minister Almost 3000 years ago, The Psalmist wrote a few lines of poetry that have endured through the ages. It is perhaps the best loved and most often repeated poem in the Western World. It is used most often at a time like this for our comfort and stability. iv memorial brochure 13_memorial brochure 05 13/09/2013 12:04 Page v The LORD the Shepherd of His People The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. This is the Word of the Lord ALL: Thanks be to God Choral Item – Côr Meibion Pendyrus ‘Cennin Aur’ ; Mansel Thomas Accompanist - Gavin Parry Reading – Beannacht / Blessing Read by – Rt Hon Theresa May MP, Home Secretary On the day when the weight deadens on your shoulders and you stumble, may the clay dance to balance you. And when your eyes freeze behind the grey window and the ghost of loss gets in to you, may a flock of colours, indigo, red, green, and azure blue come to awaken in you a meadow of delight. When the canvas frays in the currach of thought and a stain of ocean blackens beneath you, may there come across the waters a path of yellow moonlight to bring you safely home. May the nourishment of the earth be yours, may the clarity of light be yours, may the fluency of the ocean be yours, may the protection of the ancestors be yours. And so may a slow wind work these words of love around you, an invisible cloak to mind your life. John O’Donohue v memorial brochure 13_memorial brochure 05 13/09/2013 12:04 Page vi “Holding Precious Memories” The Reverend Canon David Wilbraham, National Police Chaplain, Force Chaplain, Thames Valley Police Sergeant Joe Holness QPM, Kent Police, Founder, National Police Memorial Day – reflecting on the past ten years of National Police Memorial Day and the lives of those we remember. PRAYERS / GWEDDIAU Mr Terry Spence QPM, Chairman, Police Federation of Northern Ireland Father in heaven, we give you thanks for those we remember this day. We praise you as we recollect their lives and cherish their memory. We bless you that in bearing your image they brought light to our lives, for we have seen; in their friendship reflections of your compassion, in their integrity demonstrations of your goodness, in their faithfulness glimpses of your eternal love. When we are hurt by our parting from those we loved: when we are angry at the loss we have sustained, when we long for words of comfort, yet find them hard to hear, turn our grief to truer living, and our affliction to firmer hope in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen Natalie Hughes, step-mother of PC Nicola Hughes [Greater Manchester Police] Please don't mourn for me; I'm still here, though you don't see. I'm right by your side each night and day and within your heart I long to stay. My body is gone but I'm always near I'm everything you feel, see or hear. My spirit is free, but I'll never depart as long as you keep me alive in your heart. I'll never wander out of your sight– I'm the brightest star on a summer night. I'll never be beyond your reach – I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach.

However, the UK has yet to comply with this recommendation. Suggested question: · What plans does the UK have for incorporating all provisions of the ICCPR into domestic law and what is the timetable? 2.2 The Human Rights Committee’s last examination of the UK’s observance of the provisions of the ICCPR further recommended that the UK should consider, as a priority, accession to the first Optional Protocol2.

  • Serious Case Review Into Child Sexual Exploitation in Oxfordshire: from the Experiences of Children A, B, C, D, E, and F
    Serious Case Review into Child Sexual Exploitation in Oxfordshire: from the experiences of Children A, B, C, D, E, and F Approved by the OSCB February 26th 2015 Update14.3.15 Independent Reviewer: Alan Bedford MA (Social Work), Dip.Crim FOREWORD i. What happened to the child victims of the sexual exploitation in Oxfordshire was indescribably awful, and a number of perpetrators are serving long periods of imprisonment following the investigation known as ‘Operation Bullfinch’. The child victims and their families feel very let down. Their accounts of how they perceived professional work are disturbing and chastening. There is clearly a demand to find out how such extensive abuse could have continued for so long before it was properly identified, and why there was not speedier action. There was a strong public reaction last year and this year to two Rotherham inquiries (which were not Serious Case Reviews) and to similar concerns reported elsewhere, and there have been calls in such cases for individuals to be held to account. ii. The Serious Case Review (SCR) has seen no evidence of wilful professional neglect or misconduct by organisations, but there was at times a worrying lack of curiosity and follow through, and much work should have been considerably different and better. There is little evidence that the local understanding of child sexual exploitation (CSE), or how to tackle it once identified, was significantly different from many parts of the country. iii. On the surface, many of the illustrations described in the report can seem like professional ineptitude, unconcern, or inaction. They become more understandable when put in the context of the knowledge and processes at the time, practical difficulties around evidence, and a professional mind-set which could not grasp that the victims’ ability to say ‘no’ had been totally eroded.

    Oxford Heritage Walks Book 2 On foot from Broad Street by Malcolm Graham © Oxford Preservation Trust, 2014 This is a fully referenced text of the book, illustrated by Edith Gollnast with cartography by Alun Jones, which was first published in 2014. Also included are a further reading list and a list of common abbreviations used in the footnotes. The published book is available from Oxford Preservation Trust, 10 Turn Again Lane, Oxford, OX1 1QL – tel 01865 242918 Contents: Broad Street to Ship Street 1 – 8 Cornmarket Street 8 – 14 Carfax to the Covered Market 14 – 20 Turl Street to St Mary’s Passage 20 – 25 Radcliffe Square and Bodleian Library 25 – 29 Catte Street to Broad Street 29 - 35 Abbreviations 36 Further Reading 36-37 Chapter 1 – Broad Street to Ship Street The walk begins at the western end of Broad Street, outside the Fisher Buildings of Balliol College (1767, Henry Keene; refaced 1870).1 ‘The Broad’ enjoyably combines grand College and University buildings with humbler shops and houses, reflecting the mix of Town and Gown elements that has produced some of the loveliest townscapes in central Oxford. While you savour the views, it is worth considering how Broad Street came into being. Archaeological evidence suggests that the street was part of the suburban expansion of Oxford in the 12th century. Outside the town wall, there was less pressure on space and the street is first recorded as Horsemonger Street in c.1230 because its width had encouraged the sale of horses. Development began on the north side of the street and the curving south side echoes the shape of the ditch outside the town wall, which, like the land inside it, was not built upon until c.
