Summary of Principal Findings and Conclusions 1 This Retail Study was commissioned by the five Local Authorities to advise on the need for new retail development in the sub-region, and how it could be accommodated in a commercially realistic way. It was also intended to identify the hierarchy of centres in the Districts; and provide information on the vitality and viability of each town centre, applying the criteria in PPS6. The Study will form part of the evidence base for each new Local Development Framework. National trends in retailing and retail development 2 As the context for retail planning and development, a review of national trends in retailing and retail development was undertaken. The principal implications of these trends for Greater Nottingham are as follows: (a) To achieve new retail development in the smaller centres, it will be necessary to encourage non-traditional forms of development. These will either need to be mixed use schemes, probably including substantial residential elements so as to increase value and subsidise the ground floor retail accommodation, or be low cost developments such as simple free-standing stores. (b) Despite PPS6 and the sequential approach, there will be continued pressure for more out-of-centre development of retail warehouses; and pressure to relax bulky goods conditions on existing retail warehouses in the study area.

This was a major project delivered by Wates Construction that has resulted in a high-quality artistic home for digital and creative industries, local businesses and aspiring talent. It’s key to acknowledge Nottingham City Council’s investment into this building, which reaches much further than the new dance studio and creative space in the heart of Sneinton.

Amici, one of the major supply chain partners on this project trained six new apprentices onsite; five of which are still employed with the company. Our commitment to engage the local supply chain and provide skills and training opportunities on every project ensures that we deliver real value for money for our clients, but more importantly leaves a lasting legacy on the local community.

  • Sutton Bonington Kegworth Konnect Survey
    UoNSU Insight Team Shanai Momi (Supported by Sophie Hammond) July 2018 Sutton Bonington Kegworth Konnect Survey Introduction This report for the Guild explores the online survey conducted to find out about the accessibility, transport and healthcare at Sutton Bonington (SB) Campus. Data collection was conducted during the middle of June 2018 through 13 questions. These questions consisted of individual responses (free text comments) and multiple choice questions. The survey gathered 327 student responses, this report will not only analyse these responses, but also provide recommendations for the Guild to implement. Main Analysis Q1. Are you a student or member of the community? This first question was a quick way of discovering who was answering the survey. No one skipped this question and it was found that all 327 people were students. This is beneficial as SB students are most affected by factors relating to SB, therefore, they will have the most insight regarding these matters. However, if the Guild would like to have the opinions of the wider community members aside from students, then it would be useful to conduct an additional survey aimed at this demographic. Q2. Please tell us about your accommodation and community experiences. This question had three subparts to it. The first was to name the area which they lived in e.g. Kegworth, Nottingham or SB. The majority of respondents were living in SB (on campus). There are a substantial proportion also living in both Nottingham and Kegworth, and some lived in Grantham and Lenton. 100% of the 327 surveyed answered this question. 86.9% answered the second part of the three-part question whilst 82.3% answered the third.

Foreword Nottingham has a distinct sense of ‘place’. It’s somewhere different, somewhere special and, for those who live in the city, somewhere local. The diversity of the city’s heritage is its strength, and its history of growth, adaptation and development has helped establish a cultural destination and an economic centre where people can invest with confidence. Nottingham has a track record of successful heritage-led regeneration, attracting substantial inward investment and channelling it into the city’s open spaces, historic buildings and local communities. The latest and most ambitious project will transform Nottingham Castle, celebrating over 1000 years of history, exploring the city’s well-earned reputation as a place of protest and rebellion and showcasing its prestigious heritage and art collections. Over the next fifteen years Nottingham and its heritage will face We urge all partners to unite behind this common strategy, a number of challenges. The Nottingham Plan sets the direction working together to ensure the city can continue to celebrate and to transform the city into a safer, greener, healthier and more capitalise on its rich heritage to help grow and develop the city prosperous place.

  • Village News
    Sutton Bonington Normanton on Soar Kingston on Soar VILLAGE NEWS January and February 2021 A MESSAGE FROM LEE SHILTON, SB PRIMARY SCHOOL I hope all the readers of the Village News are well, given that this has been a year like no other! However, despite this, the efforts of the children, staff and parents in the community has been incredible. As head teacher at this amazing school I am so proud of all their efforts. At Sutton Bonington, we have five core values - honesty, kindness, respect, curiosity and resilience and each half-term we focus on one of these values and draw out and celebrate children who achieve in that area. This half-term, the focus was curiosity and here are some examples: In Year 3, the children have been researching a variety of Egyptian gods and goddesses and presenting their information in fact- files. The children in Reception have been following their own interests during their child-led play. They have set up their own ice-cream parlour and enjoyed junk-model making and undertaking some fantastic writing linked to the fairy-tale ‘Cinderella’. In Year 4, the children have been learning about the Romans and they had an excellent Roman day which involved the teacher dressing up in a Roman toga and carrying out a range of fun activities to learn more about this fascinating topic. The school has also focused on Anti-Bullying Week, been involved in a Primary Maths Challenge and planted a wide variety of new trees in conjunction with The Big Climate Fightback. I sincerely hope that you had a restful and enjoyable Christmas and that we all stay safe and well in this new year! SUTTON BONINGTON PLAYGROUP Our amazing tea towels have arrived!! A huge thanks to Any Wear Embroidery for doing such a fabulous job of making them for us.

There are 2 main options; the full walk (A), of 15km, or a shorter walk (B), just Lady Bay and Trent Fields, of 10.7km. There is also the possibility of parking at Holme Grove, going straight into Trent Fields, or at the Country Park, where there are lots of paths to choose from – I have just included one. The walk is split into 2 documents (to manage file size), this one, 16.1, goes to just before the Watersports Centre; the second part, 16.2, continues around part of the Watersports lake, through the Skylarks Nature Reserve and back via Adbolton Lane-Regatta Way to the canal and back. From Musters Road go along Devonshire Road, across Melton Road and then along Carnarvon Road. Turn right into Exchange Road, past West Bridgford Junior School, and through the alley to Burleigh Road.
