  • My Lifestory by Audrey Pettigrew Family Life
    My Lifestory by Audrey Pettigrew Family Life I was born on 21st August 1932 at St Mary’s Hospital, Manchester. 2 The only photo taken of me as a baby is the one below, when I was 12 months old. Before I was born my mother gave birth to unnamed, stillborn, twin boys. 3 My mother was Margaret Evans and my father was Arthur Gregory. My dad served in World War I. A soldier’s tin hat, WWI Dad when he was in the army 4 After the war he became an engineer at Platts, Oldham. The headquarters of Platts 5 As a young woman my mum worked in cotton mills. Later she went into Service working for a family of Dutch Jews, who had fled to the U.K. to escape the Nazis in their homeland. The holocaust badge. The word Jew is written in Dutch. 6 The Dutch family became very instrumental in my upbringing, and became lifelong friends. Mum would take me to work with her where I met Jan, a Dutch boy. As youngsters we played happily together, and in our teens we spent many happy times in Holland. 7 I lived in Cranberry Street, Glodwick, Oldham, quite a poor neighbourhood. I lived in a two up two down terraced house with no bathroom. When I was 8 years old in 1940, I witnessed a bomb exploding in my street and destroying houses and the local pub, the Cranberry Inn. 8 My mother had several sisters who lived nearby. I affectionately knew them as the “old aunts” and they took turns at looking after me, whilst my mother worked.

  • Electoral Review of Salford City Council
    Electoral review of Salford City Council Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on Warding Patterns August 2018 1 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Salford in 2018 has changed dramatically since the city’s previous electoral review of 2002. Salford has seen a turnaround in its fortunes over recent years, reversing decades of population decline and securing high levels of investment. The city is now delivering high levels of growth, in both new housing and new jobs, and is helping to drive forward both Salford’s and the Greater Manchester economies. 1.2 The election of the Greater Manchester Mayor and increased devolution of responsibilities to Greater Manchester, and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, is fundamentally changing the way Salford City Council works in areas of economic development, transport, work and skills, planning, policing and more recently health and social care. 1.3 Salford’s directly elected City Mayor has galvanised the city around eight core priorities – the Great Eight. Delivering against these core priorities will require the sustained commitment and partnership between councillors, partners in the private, public, community and voluntary and social enterprise sectors, and the city’s residents. This is even more the case in the light of ongoing national policy changes, the impending departure of the UK from the EU, and continued austerity in funding for vital local services. The city’s councillors will have an absolutely central role in delivering against these core priorities, working with all our partners and residents to harness the energies and talents of all of the city.

  • Push the Boundary Email: [email protected]
    Push The Boundary Email: [email protected] 6 November 2019 Dear Abdallah We are writing to you on behalf of those Oldham Athletic supporters who have concerns about the future of our foot- ball club and in particular those listed at the end of this letter. “Push the Boundary” is a group of supporters who have common concerns that our football club is being run in a way that is contra to its best interests. The group has been founded by four supporters but we believe has the support of a large proportion of the fan base. Following the release of our independent group, signatures supporting this letter to you, have risen to 596 in the space of a week. This clearly shows the level of dissatisfaction and disconnect that sup- porters currently feel, at the current state of our beloved Oldham Athletic Football Club. The purpose of this letter is to express our specific concerns about the direction that Oldham Athletic appears to be taking under the current Board of Directors. We fully appreciate the state that the football club was in at the time that you were in negotiations with the previous owner and that these issues stretch back several years. It is far from ideal that Oldham Athletic Football Club no longer owns Boundary Park or the land upon which the ground is located. This will always hugely impact upon the amount of revenue that the club is able to generate. It was also apparent to most supporters that the club was on the brink of insolvency prior to your purchase.

    Appendix 4 Detailed proposals for each Ward – organised by Local Area Partnership (LAP) Proposed Wards within the Knutsford Local Area Partnership Knutsford Local Area Partnership (LAP) is situated towards the north-west of Cheshire East, and borders Wilmslow to the north-east, Macclesfield to the south-east and Congleton to the south. The M6 and M56 motorways pass through this LAP. Hourly train services link Knutsford, Plumley and Mobberley to Chester and Manchester, while in the east of this LAP hourly trains link Chelford with Crewe and Manchester. The town of Knutsford was the model for Elizabeth Gaskell's novel Cranford and scenes from the George C. Scott film Patton were filmed in the centre of Knutsford, in front of the old Town Hall. Barclays Bank employs thousands of people in IT and staff support functions at Radbroke Hall, just outside the town of Knutsford. Knutsford is home to numerous sporting teams such as Knutsford Hockey Club, Knutsford Cricket Club, Knutsford Rugby Club and Knutsford Football Club. Attractions include Tatton Park, home of the RHS Flower show, the stately homes Arley Hall, Tabley House and Peover Hall, and the Cuckooland Museum of cuckoo clocks. In detail, the proposals are: Knutsford is a historic, self-contained urban community with established extents and comprises the former County Ward of Knutsford, containing 7 polling districts. The Parish of Knutsford also mirrors the boundary of this proposal. Knutsford Town is surrounded by Green Belt which covers 58% of this proposed division. The proposed ward has excellent communications by road, motorway and rail and is bounded to the north by Tatton Park and to the east by Birkin Brook.
