Holocaust Archaeology: Archaeological Approaches to Landscapes of Nazi Genocide and Persecution
HOLOCAUST ARCHAEOLOGY: ARCHAEOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO LANDSCAPES OF NAZI GENOCIDE AND PERSECUTION BY CAROLINE STURDY COLLS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The landscapes and material remains of the Holocaust survive in various forms as physical reminders of the suffering and persecution of this period in European history. However, whilst clearly defined historical narratives exist, many of the archaeological remnants of these sites remain ill-defined, unrecorded and even, in some cases, unlocated. Such a situation has arisen as a result of a number of political, social, ethical and religious factors which, coupled with the scale of the crimes, has often inhibited systematic search. This thesis will outline how a non- invasive archaeological methodology has been implemented at two case study sites, with such issues at its core, thus allowing them to be addressed in terms of their scientific and historical value, whilst acknowledging their commemorative and religious significance. -

This action plan describes the work to be undertaken in 2020, within the Alderney West Coast and Burhou Island Ramsar Site and Other Sites, as required under the States of Alderney Ramsar Management Strategy 2017-21 (ARS3; SoA/AWT, 2016). In 2020, Alderney’s Ramsar site enters the 14th year of operations. This action plan incorporates work suggested under the five-year management strategy with consideration of recommendations made in the 2019 Ramsar Review (AWT, 2020) and incorporates input and review from members of the Alderney Ramsar Steering Group. Further, this plan attempts to follow the new Terms of Reference for scientific research as laid out by the CEO SoA in January 2020. 2. To achieve the strategic aims and objectives set out by the five-year strategy, a series of objectives are set out for 2020 that encompass maintaining the long-term monitoring of Alderney’s sea bird populations, including the management of invasive species and some rodent control, marine surveys and various outreach events. -
Extraordinary Review Report, LSA South West (Guernsey) 2014
317429/South West Extraordinary/2014 Page 1 of 54 2014-15 Extraordinary review of performance in mitigating key risks identified in the NMC Quality Assurance framework for local supervising authorities for midwifery supervision . LSA NHS England South West Guernsey Extraordinary Review Date of review 01-03 October 2014 Managing Reviewer Judith Porch Lay Reviewer Caroline Thomas Registrant Reviewer(s) Maureen Brown, Dawn Meredith, Verena Wallace, Areas visited during extraordinary LSA review: Princess Elizabeth Hospital, Health and Social Care Services (HSSD), Guernsey Jersey General Hospital, St Helier, Jersey Date of Report Publication 30 October 2014 317429/South West Extraordinary/2014 Page 2 of 54 Introduction The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) The NMC exists to protect the public. We do this by ensuring that only those who meet our requirements are allowed to practise as a nurse or midwife in the UK. We take action if concerns are raised about whether a nurse or midwife is fit to practise. The Local Supervising Authority (LSA) The LSA must ensure that each practising midwife within its area has a named supervisor of midwives (SoM) appointed by the LSA. The LSA must monitor and ensure adequate resources are provided to enable supervisors of midwives to fulfil their role. The LSA is expected to have a system with employers of midwives to ensure that the LSAMO (LSA midwifery officer) is notified of all adverse incidents, complaints or concerns relating to midwifery practice or allegations of impaired fitness to practise against a midwife. The LSA may, following appropriate investigation, suspend a practising midwife from practice in circumstances where the LSA intends to refer an allegation to the NMC that the fitness to practise of that midwife is impaired. -

Day 1 Friday 25th September Apart from Gary, who had unexpectedly arrived a day early(!), our group arrived on two separate flights from Southampton. So the first eight touched down in fine weather around 10am, to be greeted by Martin, and were soon aboard Annabel’s Alderney Tours minibus for the short transfer to the Braye Beach Hotel, our wonderfully-appointed base for the tour. As it was changeover day, I was engaged with our earlier group this morning. After a welcome coffee and snack, everyone visited the main town of St.Anne, a short uphill drive from Braye. Here, Martin led a guided tour of the attractions, from the cobbled Victoria Street (named in honour of the Queen’s affection for the island), through the impressively large 19th century church and very well laid out museum, to the public library which houses the beautiful final panel of the apparently incomplete Bayeux tapestry. Depicting the coronation of William the Conqueror after the Battle of Hastings this was recently crafted by the Alderney community and was subsequently displayed alongside the original in Bayeux in 2014. -
Writing a Newspaper Article Being a Newspaper Journalist
Writing a newspaper article Being a newspaper journalist Puffin Facts The Puffins on Burhou spend most of their lives at sea. They only leave the water to breed and raise their young chicks. On Burhou the Puffins appear in the later spring and leave the island in July or August. During this breeding season no tourists are allowed to step foot on Burhou and private boats are encouraged not to take tourists to the island. These steps have been taken to protect the colony of Puffins during the breeding season. Activity – Protecting Burhou’s Wildlife You are a reporter working for the Wildlife Trust.

Alderney Wildlife Trust (AWT) Business and Operations Plans 2020
Alderney Wildlife Trust (AWT) Business and Operations Plans 2020 Executive Summary The purpose of this document is to present the AWT’s Business and Operations Plans for 2020. Business Plan The Business Plan establishes the AWT’s business scope, identifies its existing AWT operational structures including its financial mechanisms and sets out core foci for the AWT’s operations in 2020 which will give the AWT direction and create a bridge between the Board and the Operations Team. Operations Plan The Operations Plan incorporates the foci established by the Board’s Business Plan and reflects those into the AWT’s operational commitments during 2020. It establishes 9 clear and measureable targets and the subsequent goals for delivery and links these to the budget for 2020. The Plan lays out the staffing and structural changes required to deliver upon the annual targets. Both the Business and Operational Plans recognise the new infrastructure established by the Board in 2019, including the Schedule of Delegations and governance/operational structure this supports (Appendix 1.). Monitoring of the Plan will be undertaken through the Board’s quarterly meetings and the effectiveness of the new structure will be reported to the AWT’s membership at the 2020 AGM and in the end of year report to be published in [December 2020]. Conclusion Both the Business and Operations Plans identify the need for the AWT to establish a greater clarity over how it will deliver on the organisation’s primary Objectives to Protect Alderney’s Nature for the Future, and in doing so protect our community’s greatest resource, the island’s environment. -

No scheduled ferry service links the island with either the mainland of France or England, or with any other island, and herein lies its charm – it being a peaceful backwater where the pace of life is slow, visitors are sparse and the locals most welcoming. Just over three-and-a-half miles long and a mile-and-a-half wide, it is possible to walk around Alderney in a day. -
