EXECUTIVE LEADER’S ADDRESS The Executive Leader stated that the start of the new municipal year provided an opportunity to reflect back on the past year and what achievements had been made and also to look forward to the next twelve months. The Council was continuing to deliver its jobs pledge to ensure that every young person had the best possible start, with over 100 apprentices commencing with the Council and partner organisations over the past year. The Executive Leader commented on the progress of the Business Summit, set up to work with the private sector in Tameside to discuss policies and investments and was pleased to report that businesses were working with the council and partners to improve skills and employment locally. The success of the bin swap scheme, to reduce the costs of waste going to landfill and make Tameside environmentally friendly, was highlighted, with savings of £24,000 per week, with two thirds of the Borough still to switch. The progress of the Vision Tameside project was further highlighted, with the building of a new Advanced Learning Centre for Tameside College, together with the Advanced Technologies Centre, would guarantee that the students of Tameside received an education at the cutting edge of technology. The project, which also included the construction of a new administrative centre for the Borough, would also bring £300 million of growth through the creation of jobs, increased apprenticeships and more business for local shops and retailers. The Executive Leader emphasised the importance of looking beyond the confines of the Borough and geographical boundaries and made reference to the devolution of £6 billion of health and social care funding to Greater Manchester and explained how this would enable the first pioneering moves to the full integration of health and social care to be made locally. In conclusion, the Executive Leader reaffirmed the Council’s commitment to take Tameside forward and help support residents and businesses and build and strengthen the local economy through challenging times. 9.

  • Area Profile
    A profile of needs and s Services about children, young people and their families In the Hyde, Hattersley & Longdendale area of Tameside September 2007 Hyde, Hattersley & Longdendale: Profile of need and services Introduction This is a selective statistical profile of needs and services in the Hyde, Hattersley & Longdendale area, this is one of four areas chosen as a basis from which future integrated services for children, young people and their families will be delivered. The other areas are Ashton-under-Lyne: Denton, Droylsden & Audenshaw and Stalybridge, Mossley & Dukinfield. Companion profiles of these other areas are also available. This profile has a focus on data that has relevance to children and families rather than other community members (e.g. older people). The data selected is not exhaustive, rather key indicators of need are selected to help produce an overall picture of need in the area and offer some comparisons between localities (mainly wards) within the area. Some commentary is provided as appropriate. It is expected that the profile will aid the planning and delivery of services. The profile has two parts: Part 1 focuses on the presentation of basic need data, whilst Part 2 focuses on services. The top three categories of the new occupational classification are ‘Managers & Senior Officials; Professionals’ and Associate Professional & Technical’ (hatched at the top of the graph on right) Tameside as a whole comes 350 th out of 376 in the country for Professional; and bottom in Greater Manchester for all three categories

  • Migration Dividend Fund
    MIGRATION DIVIDEND FUND A GLOBAL FUTURE REPORT JULY 2019 Contents OUR DIRECTORS / ADVISORY BOARD 4 FOREWORD by Pat McFadden 5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 8 PART ONE – Immigration and Towns: The Case for Action 18 PART TWO – A New Approach: The Migration Dividend Fund 51 PART THREE – Communicating The Scheme 75 This research was supported by Paul Hamlyn Foundation Global Future is a fresh voice in the debate about our country’s direction. We make the case for immigration, freedom of movement and building an open and vibrant Britain that looks out to the world and succeeds in it. We believe the dynamism of our economy and creativity of our culture depends on our country remaining open to people, trade and ideas from across the world. In the emerging political divide between open and closed visions for the future, we reject the narrow nationalism of those who want to close us off or who live in the myths of the past. Instead, we believe that the only way Britain can succeed in the future is as a vibrant and open nation that reaches out to the world. Global Future’s mission is not only to help people appreciate the benefits of openness but also to understand the genuine issues that stand in the way of realising these benefits for everyone. We will explore new ways for people to take more control over what matters most in their lives without cutting themselves off from opportunities to succeed in an interconnected world.
