This project is part of a wider pan Cheshire audit of youth arts including; a separate document also for East Cheshire, a sub-regional and county wide audit in Cheshire as well as a report analysis recommendations for youth arts for the future. This also precedes the new structure of Cheshire’s two county unitary authorities following LGR into East and West Cheshire and Chester, which will come into being in April 2009 An audit of this kind will never be fully accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date. Some data will be out-of-date or incorrect as soon as it’s printed or written, and we apologise for any errors or omissions. The youth arts audit aims to produce a snapshot of the activity that takes place in West Cheshire provided by the many arts, culture and youth organisations based in the county in the spring and summer of 2008– we hope it is a fair and balanced picture, giving a reasonable impression of the scale and scope of youth arts activities, organisations and opportunities – but it is not entirely exhaustive and does not claim to be.

  • Presbytery of Duns Church of Scotland
    Welcome to the Parish Profile of Duns & District Parishes Presbytery of Duns Church of Scotland Our Parish Duns & District Parishes is located in the Presbytery of Duns in the centre of rural Berwickshire – one of the most beautiful parts of the country. We are 1 congregation of around 140 regular church attenders and 600 members, in a community of 4,800 people. Duns, the county town of Berwickshire, is home to 2,800 ‘Dingers’ with 1,600 more in nearby villages of Allanton, Gavinton, Preston and adjacent countryside. Most of the parish comprises the rugged, sparsely populated Lammermuir Hills, home to 400 in the village of Longformacus and surrounding upland. We’ve big skies, great views and compact communities. Our vacancy is of Unrestricted Tenure, following the departure of our minister to a new charge. We hope this profile gives you a taste of the life of our church, people and community – as we seek to follow Jesus’ example of ministry in a rural area. Our Past Our church and land has a proud history, which provides inspiration for the future. We have given Scotland and the world important religious thinkers like John Duns Scotus, Thomas Boston, Thomas M’Crie the Elder and William Cunningham. In the sixteenth century Covenanter armies based themself here and “Scotland’s religious liberty was saved not by civil law, not by canon law, but by Duns Law”. Previous ministers and elders pioneered psalmody, led great home missions, and even introduced the rickshaw to India! Victorian attendance and membership was higher here than anywhere else, and we once stood at the vanguard of change in the Church of Scotland: the first pipe organ, introducing many worship and decorative innovations, and some of the first Christmas and Easter services.
