  • Ribbesford Meadows Teams
    Date: 05.02.2019 Ground: 81 Match: 23 (2018/2019 season) Venue: Ribbesford Meadows Teams: Bewdley Town V Smethwick Rangers Competition: West Midlands Regional League Premier Division Admission: £3 Final Score: 5-0 (H/T 3-0) Referee: Not Known Attendance: 22 (Head Count) Mileage to venue and return: 41.2 Miles Programme: £1 Introduction This game was the third time in a row that I had attempted to take in a midweek game of football. Two weeks ago, I arrived at the Aspray Arena to watch Dudley Town V Black Country Rangers, but the snow came down with force and the game was postponed with around half hour to go too kick off. Last Tuesday I had planned to visit Wellbeing Park for the ‘El Stonio’ between Stone Dominoes V Stone Old Alleynians, but that was postponed earlier in the day due to more bad weather. So, it goes without saying that I was very pleased to see an improvement in the weather and for this game at Ribbesford Meadows to go ahead. As this was a midweek match, I went straight to the venue directly from my place of work in Atcham, Shropshire. My route from work took me the usual way home too Much Wenlock but instead of turning right in Much Wenlock and towards my, HQ in South Shropshire I travelled towards the Shropshire Village of Morville. From Morville I travelled through more Shropshire Villages – Glazeley, Billingsley and Button Oak to name but a few before arriving in Bewdley. As is my usual practise, I found the location of the ground which is located in the Village of Ribbesford, 1.3 miles from Bewdley.

    THEWYRE SKILLS FOREST GUIDE 2019 WYRE FOREST THE PEOPLE. THE CAREERS. THE WORKFORCE. 1 WYREWelcome FOREST to The Skills Guide 2019 This is the second year that Worcestershire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) and Worcestershire County Council have developed these guides to the local skills network. We’ve created these documents to help provide local students and parents with a greater understanding of the academic opportunities and employment opportunities available in Worcestershire. Our reports provide a wealth of information from all six district areas in Worcestershire, with a summary of the top industry sectors and the largest employers in each area. With our knowledge of the local employment trends and the skills that businesses require to continue their growth, we are able to help younger generations to understand what the jobs of the future will look like and require. Gary Woodman The Skills Guide forms part of the work carried out by the Worcestershire LEP’s Careers Hub team, which helps to Chief Executive bring together our county’s businesses with local schools and colleges. By working together with employers, schools Worcestershire LEP and colleges in their careers advice and planning, we aim to ensure that our younger generations will have the relevant skills for the future needs of local business. To help further improve the education of our younger people, we’ve launched a campaign for ‘Creating our Future Workforce’. The campaign aims to tackle the county’s skills gap and support businesses to get involved with developing Worcestershire’s skilled workforce of the future, by working more closely together with educational establishments.

  • A Vision for Wyre
    1 A VISION FOR WYRE A 50 YEAR The Wyre Forest is mostly ancient woodland: 2400 hectares of it – the largest contiguous forest of that kind in the whole of Eng- VISION FOR land. Though there were trees here before there were human WYRE beings, the forest we know today is the product of our history. Landscapes change, particularly when people manage them. We will manage this one by caring for wildlife in all its diversity and encouraging a flourishing woodland economy. The forest of the future will be nourished by its past; it will weave together a range of communities and different sorts of landscape. We want it to be, in the words of John Ruskin, ‘beautiful, peaceful, and fruitful’. We want it to generate wealth, serve the needs of visi- tors seeking refreshment, and resonate in human memory. 3 Our Vision can be 1.The Forest will have been recognised as one of England’s most important ancient woodlands. summarised in the Wyre will have adapted structurally to a changing climate within an inspirational 21st-century wood- land landscape meeting society’s needs and carbon targets. following statements that have linked action 2.Wyre evokes a powerful sense of place and this is celebrated by the communities and people of areas associated with the Forest, and shared by visitors who value the special qualities. There is a recognition that the them in the pages that landscape of Wyre Forest and its setting is highly distinctive, diverse and culturally complex. The story of Wyre is ingrained in its landscape and will be written by the generations to come follow; 3.The forest will have a more natural woodland landscape, managed to increase the diversity of tree species characteristic of the ancient woodland of Wyre with a varied age structure from young sap- lings to aging veterans 4.A rich mosaic of woodland and well connected open habitats will have been developed, incorporat- ing meadows and orchards, patches of heathland and a network of ‘rides’ through the forest.
