The December 2018 Newsletter Monthly Meetings from December 2018 – March 2019 Welcome to the December 2018 Newsletter Monthly Meetings from December 2018 – March 2019 The December Monthly Meeting will be held on Wednesday 12 December and will be a Social with a Jacob’s Join at Fox Lane Social Club. A copy of QUIZ the list of food members have offered to bring will be attached to the email carrying this newsletter – so have a look if you have forgotten what you promised!! There will be a quiz to enjoy too – with prizes! If you are bringing a friend with you to the December meeting, please remember to bring extra food for them. Last year there was insufficient food brought to feed everyone who came. The usual request is to bring 6 items each – for example 6 mince pies, 6 sandwiches, 6 helpings of crisps or 6 of something else. When all the food is laid out then there should be enough for everyone who has brought food to have 6 assorted pieces of food – simples? Two last things, if you are bringing food for people on restricted diets, could you please include details on a small piece of cardboard which will remain on the dish containing them. Also, would members please ensure that these are left for those with the need for the restricted diet. If some of this food remains after people have had a chance to select it – then, by all means, others should take it. January meeting PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF VENUE and EARLY DATE (9th January 2019 10.30am-12.30am at St Ambrose aka ‘Halls for All, 72 Moss Lane. Farington. PR25 4XA (see their website at https://www.uk-hallhire.co.uk/halls/PR/14819.php ) Taking Leyland Railway Station as your stating point – Exit the Railway car park and turn right. Keeping to the right-hand side of the road, walk across the railway bridge and, at the small roundabout, turn right into Moss Lane. Proceed along Moss Lane until you reach St Ambrose Church – the Hall is a little bit beyond the church. Sid Calderbank is our speaker on Wednesday 9 January . He is very popular and always attracts a large audience. We have decided to hold the January meeting at St Ambrose ‘Halls 4 All’, Moss Lane. Farington. PR25 4XA (see above) Many of you will be familiar with the hall at St Ambrose. It has a huge sign saying “Halls forAll“ at the front. If you have any problems getting to St Ambrose, please give Edward Almond a ring on 01772 432983 or email [email protected]. We will try to arrange car-sharing There is limited parking in the car park at St Ambrose, which we will try to keep for people with mobility difficulties, but there is plenty of parking in Moss Lane & the surrounding streets Seasonal Things 1 November speaker Jimmy O’Donnell proved to be one of the best and most entertaining speakers we have had, if not actually the best. He just mentioned dementia in passing, it was all about reminiscences and he had the audience engaged and at time singing along (including me) to some of the old songs. He showed a video of Leyland Walking Day and one lady in the audience recognised herself in it and many members of the audience knew another walker. He was excellent, sorry that you missed it. Dave Hambley Firstly – Your Leyland U3A committee wishes everyone a very happy Christmas and a good new year But we also want to keep you safe Not everyone is in a mood to spread peace and happiness. Sadly, there are many who want to spoil your Christmas. Beware of people who want to relieve you of your money with fraudulent ‘phone calls or emails. Do not listen to requests ‘from your Bank’ to transfer your money to a better account (Banks do not do this over the ‘phone – they would ask you to come into the Bank) or to transfer to another gas or electric supplier at a ‘great’ rate (you need to check with someone you can trust that you would genuinely be better off). If in doubt, put the ‘phone down and use another landline/mobile to call your Bank or whoever you think may have called you. And be careful – fraudsters often leave their ‘phone line open so that if you put your ‘phone down and then pick it up again to ‘phone the Bank or ‘whoever’ – you simply go back on the line they ‘phoned you on. It is always a good idea to leave a gap of several minutes before ‘phoning back and when you do ‘phone back, check there is a dialling tone before you dial the number of your Bank or supplier. Oh – and don’t fall for the man who says he is from HMRC telling you that you have been paying too much tax recently – he just wants your bank details so he can empty your account! Another trick is to email you with a deal that seems to be too good to be true – it usually is (too good to be true)! If you want to buy anything over the Internet, take the time to search for it yourself. But despite all this gloom – have a lovely Christmas!! Please carry your membership card – and your coffee money with you when you attend the main Leyland U3A Membership Card monthly meeting (the second Wednesday of each month) and/or 2018-2019 when you attend any group meeting(s). When you attend the monthly meeting or group meetings you will need to pay towards venue costs. The coordinator will confirm the amount- usually £1. If there are no venue costs e.g. walking, or when a meeting is in a member’s home, there are no meeting fees to pay. A contribution for refreshments will be agreed between members and their host. Coffee and Chat “Coffee and chat” sessions will be at 2:30 p.m. on the first Friday of each month at the Roccoco Café, Chapel Brow. Come along, chat, ask questions and enjoy a brew in this friendly café. And bring a friend who might be interested in joining Leyland U3A. The next two meetings will be Friday 4 January 2019 and Friday 1 February 2019. 2 GENERAL NEWS From Ann France In August I went for the second time to the U3A summer school at Penrith. The course I picked was entitled 'What did the Romans ever do for us' and my tutor was Maggy Simms. My Russian culture course last year was taught in a traditional way, part lecture and part visual presentation, as there were a lot of facts to absorb. In contrast, on Maggy's course, we were invited to take a laptop or tablet to use, there was more group discussion and we had a trip to Tullie House museum in Carlisle. In both cases the teaching was excellent and this shows how interesting and varied summer school can be, both in the courses offered and the way they are presented. So, what did the Romans do for us? We discussed roads, arches, the Julian calendar, sewers, sanitation, concrete, coins, religion, slavery, language etc.......it's a big subject!! Finally, as Maggy promised, at the beginning of the course, we walked Hadrian's Wall in less than 15minutes but I won't give away the secret of how we did that! Sent to Andy Vurley and forwarded to Leyland U3A newsletter for information From Lisa Halpin at Leyland Library in response to Leyland U3A’s Ukulele, Boccia & Art groups’ attendance at the Fun Palace on 6th October Just wanted to say thanks again for your contribution to our Fun Palace. It was great to be able to offer our visitors such an unusual activity to try – something I'm sure they hadn't had the chance to see before. It really added to the spirit of the whole day too, helping us to offer a very diverse and inclusive range of things for people to try. I'm quite pleased with the picture I managed to get too, which is now on our Twitter page: https://twitter.com/lancspublib/status/1048536398305906689 We had just over 4 times as many visitors to the library as on an average Saturday which is amazing, and we also got lots of positive feedback too, including: 'Lovely to see the library BUZZING with all sorts of activities!' Thanks again – we really appreciate your time and skills! Lisa Lisa Halpin Library Frontline Officer – Leyland Library Library Service Lancashire County Council W: www.lancashire.gov.uk GROUPS Please check the Leyland U3A website – https://u3aleyland.wordpress.com/ for the latest available news of Groups. Please also visit the website to see the numerous photos of Leyland U3A members enjoying themselves at many events. Who says ‘old’ folk are a miserable lot? Not in Leyland we’re not! If you do not visit our website (an excellent website kept up-to-date by Ian Barrow and very interesting) you will miss out on loads of photographs and reports which do not appear in this newsletter as we just do not have enough space for them there. 3 Please note that we are looking for more members to come forward as Group Co-ordinators for some of our groups which may be in danger of collapsing and for new groups which we would like to run. If you are interested, please go to the Groups tables and have a chat with others there to see if you could help !New Groups! The first meeting of the Social Ukelele group was held on Thursday 22 November at The Rose of Farington public house.

  • 5. Network Planning for Walking
    Central Lancashire Walking and Cycling Delivery Plan 5. Network Planning for Walking The future walking network has been derived through identifying those areas which would benefit from creating a sustainable link between trip origins and trip destinations within a reasonable walking distance of approximately 2km. Trip origins predominantly include densely populated residential areas and trip destinations include educational, employment and retail areas which are likely to attract a significant number of trips. As part of this process, funnel routes have been identified which incorporate the route which most pedestrians will follow to access a particular destination, however given the diverse nature of pedestrian movements, the routes do not extend into particular destinations since the route of each individual user will vary depending on their individual trip origin/end. In alignment with LCWIP guidance, Core Walking Zones have also been identified from identifying the area within each town which encompasses the greatest amount of trip attractors and therefore likely the generate the greatest levels of walking. The Four Core Walking Zones (CWZ) identified are: • Preston CWZ; • Lostock Hall CWZ; • Leyland CWZ; and • Chorley CWZ. 41 Central Lancashire Walking and Cycling Delivery Plan 5.1 Proposed Walking Routes 5.1.1 Preston Core Walking Zone Figure 5-1 Preston CWZ / Funnel Routes The Preston CWZ proposals will improve facilities for both pedestrians and cyclists alike, making it safer and easier to access Preston inner city centre, UCLAN, Cardinal Newman College, and transport hubs such as Preston Railway and Bus Stations. Measures predominantly involve pedestrian priority / informal streets, to improve the safety and accessibility of the town centre for pedestrians.

  • Central Lancashire Infrastructure Delivery Schedules
    Local Development Framework Central Lancashire Infrastructure Delivery Schedules January 2012 This page is intentionally left blank CONTENTS Page Preface 1 Purpose of Document 2 Introduction 2 Infrastructure Types Covered in the Schedules 3 INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY SCHEDULES • Chorley 5 • South Ribble 11 • Preston 17 • Pan-Central Lancashire 24 PREFACE A version of this document was published as a single comprehensive Schedule and made a Submission Document to the Core Strategy Examination in March 2011. It was made clear at the time that it would be a ‘living’ document subject to on-going revision. Since that publication it has been updated to take account of variations in funding availability, the completion of infrastructure projects and other changed circumstances concerning infrastructure requirements. The information is being re-published now (January 2012) to support the preliminary draft consultation stage of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)1 charging schedules. To assist this, the information has been re-cast as a series of schedules – one for each District identifying projects specific to each local authority area and one remaining pan-Central Lancashire schedule listing cross-boundary projects. This has been done to align the approach with that needed to inform the local introduction of the levy where there is a requirement to demonstrate an infrastructure funding gap exists for each local authority (CIL charging authority) area. Also being published at this time is an Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) which is a companion document to these Schedules and sets out the background context to the provision of infrastructure in Central Lancashire including the roles of the different providers.

  • Infrastructure Delivery Schedule
    Report of Meeting Date Central Lancashire LDF Joint LDF Officer Team 23 June 2010 Joint Advisory Committee INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY SCHEDULE PURPOSE OF REPORT 1. To inform Members of the Infrastructure Delivery Schedule. RECOMMENDATION(S) 2. For Members to endorse the approach in producing the Schedule. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF REPORT 3. The Infrastructure Delivery Schedule aims to identify the essential strategic infrastructure required to deliver the Publication Core Strategy Strategic Sites and Locations as well as the broader distribution and quantity of residential and employment development. The draft Schedule represents work in progress but will be essential supporting material for the Inspector's examination of the Core Strategy. 4. It has been difficult to reach a clear understanding with the various infrastructure providers and now with the prospect of public sector financial cuts it is far less certain what resources will be available from national funding sources. This will place a greater reliance on developers to fund infrastructure. The Core Strategy proposes a levy/tariff type approach to securing developer contributions for infrastructure to make up for funding shortfalls that are not able to be met directly by infrastructure providers or by other means. Further work will need to be done to fully assess the economic viability of levy/tariff levels for different types of development once it is clear how local authorities can introduce such a mechanism. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION(S) (If the recommendations are accepted) 5. To make members aware of the proposed Infrastructure Delivery Schedule. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS CONSIDERED AND REJECTED 6. None Central Lancashire Local Development Framework Report Template BACKGROUND 7.
