DRAFT ITEM NO: C2(A) DRAFT ITEM NO: C2(a) SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF THE LOCAL NEIGHBOURHOOD RENEWAL STRATEGY (LNRS) AND ACTION PLANS 2006-2010 DECISION-MAKER: CABINET DATE OF DECISION: 20TH FEBRUARY 2006 REPORT VERSION No: 6 FORWARD PLAN No: CR01211 KEY DECISION? YES STATEMENT OF CONFIDENTIALITY Not applicable WARDS/COMMUNITIES AFFECTED: All wards, but primarily those with Priority Neighbourhoods SUMMARY Southampton Partnership’s Local Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy 2006 – 2010, entitled ‘Closing the Gap’ and its detailed Action Plans for the 11 Priority Neighbourhoods set out how all agencies in the city will work together to reduce disadvantage. They will enable the Southampton Partnership to secure faster improvements in the Priority Neighbourhoods thus closing the gap between the quality of life in these neighbourhoods and the rest of the city. Through this report the Southampton Partnership is formally asking for the Council’s support for the updated LNRS and its Action Plans in terms of the approach, the priorities and the actions, and specifically in terms of taking the lead in the delivery of specific Council Actions across the Priority Neighbourhoods, and contributing to the delivery of Actions led by other organisations. The draft LNRS is attached at Appendix A. The Draft Action Plans and the summary of consultation responses for the 8 Action Plans are available in the Members’ Rooms and on request from the report author. RECOMMENDATIONS: Having paid regard to Section 2 of the Local Government Act 2000 and the City’s Community Strategy and in recognition of the contribution that the documents make to achieving the Council’s 5 priorities: (i) To endorse the draft Local Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy 2006-2010 (LNRS) including the 5 priorities as detailed in appendix 1; (ii) To endorse the draft Action Plans; (iii) For those Actions where the City Council has been identified as lead organisation in either the LNRS and/or its Action Plans: 1 a) To agree to deliver the actions that can be achieved within existing resources and those covered by delegated powers; b) To actively explore external funds (for feasibility and/or actual delivery) for those Actions that cannot be achieved within existing resources and, following the appropriate decision making route, to deliver the Actions when funds are available; (iv) To support, where appropriate, the successful delivery of Actions that are being led by other organisations; and (v) To delegate authority to the Head of Communities & Regeneration to agree the final versions of the LNRS and the Action Plans, following consultation with the Cabinet Member for Communities and Regeneration. REASONS FOR REPORT RECOMMENDATIONS 1. The LNRS and its Action Plans are a key element of the approach to meeting the Community Strategy’s Key Challenge to reduce disadvantage and raise aspirations in the Priority Neighbourhoods. All SCC Directorates have a part to play in meeting this challenge. 2. The proposals in the LNRS and Action Plans will contribute to achieving all of the Council’s 5 key priorities and will thereby contribute to the economic, social and environmental well-being of the city. 3. Minor changes may arise from consultation and discussion with agencies and the Neighbourhoods Partnerships. It is proposed that the Head of Communities & Regeneration be authorised to make changes to the documents for reasons of accuracy, consistency and clarity. BACKGROUND 4. One of the Key Challenges in the Community Strategy is the need to reduce disadvantage and raise aspirations in the city’s Priority Neighbourhoods in order to close the gap of disadvantage (measured across a number of indicators) between these neighbourhoods and the rest of the city. The LNRS and its Action Plans set the framework for how this will be achieved across all agencies from 2006 to 2010. 5. The first LNRS was approved by the Southampton Partnership in 2002. It identified the most disadvantaged parts of the city (the 11 Priority Neighbourhoods) and secured agreement that the key agencies in the city would seek to improve service delivery for people in these areas thus providing the opportunities for residents to improve their own life chances. It also secured agreement for the Partnership to prepare a detailed Action Plan for each Priority Neighbourhood, working with local residents. 6. The LNRS has now been updated. It details the overall approach to tackling disadvantage across the city and contains actions to improve educational attainment and employability that apply to all Priority Neighbourhoods. The remaining 8 Action Plans have also now been prepared. These set out additional actions to address issues of local importance which have been discussed and agreed with the relevant Neighbourhoods Partnerships. 2 CONSULTATION 7. The Neighbourhoods Partnerships have had a key role in developing the Action Plans. They looked at local issues and their underlying causes and they identified the priorities that would really make an impact on reducing disadvantage in their areas. To spread the discussion to a wider audience additional consultation was carried out. As a result over 600 people from across the 8 Action Plan areas have put forward their views. The following methods were used: • Consultation with local groups – commissioning of TWICS (a local organisation) to lead a discussion at group meetings. 43 groups representing different sections of the community were involved • 3 sessions for young people using the Electronic Voting System • 13 local drop in sessions in each neighbourhood advertised through an information leaflet to all households in the Priority Neighbourhoods, and letters to user groups for people with health issues • An on – line questionnaire receiving 66 responses • specific letters (with questionnaires) to key faith groups • Community Centres consultation • SCC Councillors’ survey (Nov 2004) • Publicity through City View 8. The LNRS and Action Plans have been approved by the Southampton Regeneration Executive and Southampton Partnership as drafts to seek formal support from the service providers. In addition relevant Neighbourhoods Partnerships have given the same support. This report requests Cabinet for its support. The PCT, the Police, Job Centre Plus and the Learning & Skills Council have also been asked for their support. 9. The HCR Scrutiny Panel has considered the report and made the following suggestions: • The report should make reference to the elements of the Action Plans referring to parenting skills. • Reference should be made to the importance of involving youth workers in achieving the goals of the strategy. • The location of the word Sholing on the map on page 6 of the LNRS should be adjusted to reflect its real location more accurately. • Whilst it is recognised that the Southampton Partnership is the lead body for the strategy, the documentation should identify clearly the outcomes the Council is responsible for delivering, and who is accountable for delivery. 10. The final version of the LNRS will include reference to the Parenting and Family Support Strategy, as well as the changes to the map. It is accepted that youth worker as well as other community-based workers are central to achieving the goals of this strategy and this will be reflected in the final version of the LNRS. The last point is covered in paragraphs 18 and 19 of this report. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS CONSIDERED AND REJECTED 11. The Council is being asked for its support to the Southampton Partnership’s 3 document. The City Council has a key role to play in the delivery of the proposed actions and is a key member of the Southampton Partnership The alternative therefore is not to endorse the approach and the individual actions. Adopting this option would mean: • Delay, and the possibility that the LNRS and its Action Plans would not proceed • Some other mechanism will still be needed to demonstrate how well the city is doing in closing the gap of disadvantage • Possible reclaiming by the government of a proportion of the NRF funding already received (in excess of £5M) if the Southampton Partnership is seen to not have complied with the NRF requirement to prepare Action Plans. The money has already been spent and the Council is the Accountable Body. DETAIL Local Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy 2006 - 2010 12. The priorities of the revised Local Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy (2006 – 2010) are: • We will focus on “closing the gap” between the quality of life in the 11 Priority Neighbourhoods and the rest of the city. In particular we will support and ensure delivery of the o Thornhill Plus You Delivery Plan o Outer Shirley Delivery Plan o Bevois and Bargate Action Plan through a dedicated Task Force and o Specific Action Plans for the other 8 Priority Neighbourhoods • Focus on improving educational attainment and employability, thus enabling people from Priority Neighbourhoods to contribute and share in the city’s economic prosperity • Commit to using mainstream resources to achieve the necessary improvements in floor targets in the Priority Neighbourhoods • Develop effective ways to lead, manage and monitor how we are closing the gap • Develop the neighbourhood management agenda through the Neighbourhoods Partnerships, so that local people are empowered to drive sustainable improvements in their communities. 13. The Southampton Partnership has previously considered the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2004 for the city, and mapped where the concentrations of disadvantage are to be found - the 11 Priority Neighbourhoods which are: In the Central Neighbourhoods Partnership area: • Bevois and Bargate • Freemantle and Polygon In the North Neighbourhoods Partnership area: • Portswood and St Denys • Flowers Roads, Hampton Park and Mansbridge In the East Neighbourhoods Partnership area: 4 • Thornhill • Townhill Park • Harefield In the West Neighbourhoods Partnership area: • Outer Shirley • Lordshill • Shirley Estate In the South Neighbourhoods Partnership area: • Weston 14. It is important to note that in general, these areas are well regarded by local residents and the consultation revealed many positive characteristics in each neighbourhood. The strategy is therefore focussed on individual issues that will further improve each neighbourhood.

  • Policing Southampton Partnership Briefing
    Policing Southampton Partnership briefing September 2019 Southampton is a vibrant, busy city that we are all proud to protect and serve. This newsletter is for our trusted partners with the aim to bring you closer to the teams and the people that identify risk, tackle offenders and protect those who most need our help. We will list the challenges we are facing, the problems we are solving, and opportunities to work together. Operation Sceptre We took part in Operation Sceptre which was a national week of action that ran from September 16 to 22. In Southampton we demonstrated our commitment through several engagement events, proactive patrols, visits to parents of young people thought be carrying knives, and we conducted knife sweeps. In Shirley, a PCSO hosted a live, two hours engagement session on Twitter and the team carried out a test purchase operation in four retail outlets. All shops passed which is great news. Through our focus on high harm, we stopped and searched a man who was in possession of an axe and he was charged. We also ar- rested a man after he was reported to be making threats towards his ex partner with a knife. Most notably, a man was reported to have committed three knife point robberies in the centre of Southampton, he was quickly arrested, charged and remanded. For us to be able try and influence young people and prevent the next generation from carrying knives, we produced a campaign via the Police Apprentice Scheme in partnership with schools and the Saints Foundation and asked children come up with an idea that they thought would make their peers aged 9 to 14 think twice about choosing to carry a knife.

  • PREACHING PLACES and MEETING HOUSES a Provisional Gazetteer of Nineteenth-Century Protestant Nonconformity in Southampton by Veronica Green
    PREACHING PLACES AND MEETING HOUSES A Provisional Gazetteer of Nineteenth-Century Protestant Nonconformity in Southampton By Veronica Green Nineteenth-century nonconformists were prone to rebellion and revival, to schism and secession. New congregations arose by division from an existing church, by the missionary efforts of travelling preachers, by the inspiration of charismatic evangelists. They met in rooms over pubs and workshops, in scaffold lofts and converted laundries. They rented the Victoria Rooms, of the Philharmonic Hall, or Mr Monk’s Schoolroom, until they could build for themselves, or come into an inheritance from another denomination moving on to better things, or failing to keep up the payments on an ambitious building. Some of the back-street chapels and the smaller groups played “musical chapels” well into this century. This is a chapel gazetteer, in that it lists nonconformist places of worship. It is not only a list of chapels, that is, buildings used exclusively for worship, but also of known meeting rooms and private houses used for worship. It attempts to trace the history of worshippers as well as the buildings they worshipped in, and for the moment it concentrates on the old borough before the boundary extensions in 1895. It excludes the French Protestant congregation at St Julian’s, which had conformed in the eighteenth century, and Roman Catholics, who were listed as “nonconformists” in nineteenth-century directories, but would not now be so described. Basic sources, other than those mentioned in the text, are: Directories 1803-1899 Appendix A: Buildings used as Methodist places of worship, in The story of St Andrew’s Methodist Church, Sholing, by James W M Brown, Sholing Press, 1995 Willis, Arthur J: A Hampshire Miscellany, Vol.

    COURT LEET PRESENTMENTS 2018 No. LEAD OFFICER LEAD PRESENTMENT MEMBER 1. Arthur Jeffery - On behalf of the City of Southampton Society The Chapel of Our Lady of Grace Leader of the Council – Cllr On behalf of the City of Southampton Society, I present the City Council for failing to Hammond acknowledge Our Lady of Grace Chapel as a site of Heritage status. Throughout Inland Homes’ negotiations to build apartment blocks on the site, they only made verbal comments to honour the Chapel, and now they merely plan some Public Art items, items over which City Council officers have no control. This situation has been confirmed by Mr Darren Shorter, the City’s Urban Design Manager. CoSS has, on several occasions, asked Inland Homes to acknowledge the Chapel’s 12th century origins and its’ status as a place of pilgrimage. Henry VIII himself came as a pilgrim in 1510. Wessex Archaeology have exhumed over 100 skeletons at the Chapel. The Chapel is a heritage site of substance and the City Council should act to record and publicise this important site. RESPONSE: There are planning conditions and legal obligations placed on the planning permission for Chapel Riverside relating to the archaeology of the site. The developer is required to investigate, record and publish findings of their investigation and the remains of the Chapel will also be celebrated through public art on the site. To date, the developer has engaged with these requirements and the necessary work is ongoing. COURT LEET PRESENTMENTS 2018 No. LEAD OFFICER LEAD PRESENTMENT MEMBER 2. Arthur Jeffery Mayflower Park Cabinet Member for Transport Mayflower Park is the City Centre’s only park on the waterfront.

  • Towards an International City of Culture
    Towards an International City of Culture Southampton City Council Arts and Heritage Strategic Vision Executive Summary This Strategic Vision defines Southampton City Council’s strategic role regarding Arts and Heritage provision within the wider context of the City of Southampton Strategy towards 2026, council priorities, the Southampton Heritage and Arts People initiative (SHAPe), and the sub-regional Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH). Southampton is a thriving and growing city with a diverse and dynamic population. However, these developments are in pockets and other parts of the city (economically, physically, socially) remain significantly deprived. We want to transform Southampton from being a gateway to a place of destination where people want to visit, put down roots and engage in community. The City has a fantastic opportunity over the next twenty years to transform its cultural offer and create an overall vibrant cultural soul, a sense of identity and uniqueness that connects people to each other and to Southampton as place. Its rich cultural makeup, internationally important heritage story and nationally dynamic arts and creative scene provide an inspirational resource for exploitation. The significance of Southampton within the Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH) regional development area will ensure that this potential can be realised particularly within the context of Living Places. Culture is critical to Southampton’s economic development, health and wellbeing and the creation of an attractive image of the city as a place in which people want to live, work and play. Without a vibrant cultural soul, Southampton becomes a divided, anonymous, modern and transient settlement with little civic pride or unique sense of place, and without an attractive, sustainable and stimulating environment that people value.

It is also the best for our health so a WIN- WIN Jack’s Story The recent decision to not implement Die-In at the Bargate a Clean Air Zone is bad news for No Clean Air Zone – people like Jack in Bitterne. He has Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary shame on our City Disease (COPD) and struggles to Southampton City Council were breathe when he comes into the city. proposing to create a clean air zone, The air quality in parts of the city is charging lorries, buses and taxis to getting worse and little is being done enter the city. This proposal is to address this. Jack says, “you can’t expected to be thrown out by the see it, you are breathing it all the Labour council. This means we will time” continue breathing polluted air. To The Green Party has a set of policies highlight this many people to tackle this; stopping airport demonstrated at the Bargate on expansion, ensuring cruise liners plug Saturday 12th January – this was in in, expanding bus routes and memory of the 110 people who die building safe cycle routes in the city prematurely from poor air each year in our city –many more struggle every day with breathing difficulties.

The main practice team is based in a purpose built two-story accommodation in the St Mary’s district of the city, adjacent to the City Centre and Docks. The practice also provides services from two branch surgeries: Telephone House Surgery and the Bargate Medical Centre. Telephone House Surgery is in the historic French Quarter of the City and was opened in February 2009. The Bargate Medical Centre is positioned at the rear of the Boots store on Above Bar Street and can be accessed from the store. The premises at the Bargate Medical Centre were very much a short term solution to deal with issues around accessibility of the previous Oxford Street Surgery premises. Accessibility at the Bargate Medical Centre remains a major issue. The premises at the Bargate Medical Centre are not fit for 21st century healthcare, and cannot be expanded to make them fit for the future. This consultation is about exploring options around relocating the services provided at the Bargate Medical Centre within St Mary’s Surgery and Telephone House Surgery. 3 The current service at the Bargate Medical Centre In September 2013 the Care Quality Commission, the independent regulator of health and adult social care in England, reviewed the premises at the Bargate Medical Centre.

Authorising Officer: Acting ACCTO Graham Wyeth Mr S Smith, Area Housing Manager, Southampton City Council Mr R Honey, Community Safety Team Contact Details: Sergeant Dick Partridge Community Beat Sergeant Southampton Central Police Station Havelock Road Southampton Hampshire SOW 4 7LG Tell: 023 8067 4368 Fax: 023 8867 4370 OPERATION ACER - Drugs problem, Albion Towers - Summary Forcer Hampshire Constabulary Contact: Sgt Dick Partridge 02380 674368 Nature of the problem Albion Towers is a 15 storey block of flats, situated on the inner city council estate of Golden Grove within the St Marys area of Southampton. There has been a long history of drug related crime within the St Marys area, particularly linked to Albion Towers. At least three addresses were known to be dealing drugs and users came from both in and out of the city meaning that many 'shot up"in the vicinity, including the stair areas of the block and in bushed areas on the lacal estate. Thus the problem was not only of dealers but also of the drug related litter left behind, including needles. Evidence of the problem There has always been drug related problems within Albion Towers and Golden Grove, however in the summer of 2002 the two wardens, who live and work in Albion Towers became increasingly concerned about the amount of drug litter in the stair areas. They were collecting up to 3 bucket fulls of rubbish each day, containing needles, blood swabs, tin foil, matches and ofcourse the associated litter of sweet, crisp wrappers.
