    Jubilee Digest Briefing Note for Cartmel and Furness

    Furness Peninsula Department of History, Lancaster University Victoria County History: Cumbria Project ‘Jubilee Digests’ Briefing Note for Furness Peninsula In celebration of the Diamond Jubilee in 2012, the Queen has decided to re-dedicate the VCH. To mark this occasion, we aim to have produced a set of historical data for every community in Cumbria by the end of 2012. These summaries, which we are calling ‘Jubilee Digests’, will be posted on the Cumbria County History Trust’s website where they will form an important resource as a quick reference guide for all interested in the county’s history. We hope that all VCH volunteers will wish to get involved and to contribute to this. What we need volunteers to do is gather a set of historical facts for each of the places for which separate VCH articles will eventually be written: that’s around 315 parishes/townships in Cumberland and Westmorland, a further 30 in Furness and Cartmel, together with three more for Sedbergh, Garsdale and Dent. The data included in the digests, which will be essential to writing future VCH parish/township articles, will be gathered from a limited set of specified sources. In this way, the Digests will build on the substantial progress volunteers have already made during 2011 in gathering specific information about institutions in parishes and townships throughout Cumberland and Westmorland. As with all VCH work, high standards of accuracy and systematic research are vital. Each ‘Jubilee Digest’ will contain the following and will cover a community’s history from the earliest times to the present day: Name of place: status (i.e.

  • Cumbria County Council Early Years (Speech, Language and Communication) Peer Challenge

    Cumbria County Council Early Years (Speech, Language and Communication) Peer Challenge

    Cumbria County Council Early Years (Speech, Language and Communication) Peer Challenge 3rd – 6th December 2019 Feedback Report Page 1 of 13 1. Executive Summary Cumbria has good partnership working at operational levels which aim to meet the needs of children in the early years. Staff are passionate about their work and aim to deliver services to provide the best start for the youngest children in Cumbria. Strategic leadership and oversight of the early years agenda needs to be improved and the current governance arrangement through the Cumbria Alliance of Systems Leaders (CASL) is not fully effective. The governance arrangements to oversee the developing Early Years Strategy will need to be considered and the Cumbria Children’s Trust may be the best forum for this. However, this Board is in need of a review and refresh. The health landscape is complex, with two Clinical Commissioning Groups, one based in the south, Morecambe Bay, which also covers part of Lancashire, the other in north Cumbria. Relationships are established and improving. This brings challenges in terms of service provision and the capacity of strategic leaders to work across two counties. Partnership working at a local level is well-developed and is based on professional and organisational respect. Signs of Safety has been well received and is the basis for strengths-based conversations to tackle difficult issues. There were examples of services and settings working together to address need, despite a lack of strategic direction. Families and children are at the heart of what they do. The new specification for the 0-19 Children, Young People and Families Health and Wellbeing System has enabled commissioners to work together to develop a holistic approach and bring partners together.

    Biodiversity in Community Strategies Guidance Notes for the Community Planning Process in South Lakeland including suggested actions for each LSP task group to take on board to enhance biodiversity in South Lakeland Produced By the Cumbria Biodiversity Partnership July 2004 2 Guidance note for the South Lakeland Local Strategic Partnership for the incorporation of Biodiversity issues into its Community Strategy Biodiversity for pleasure, health, economic growth and education South Lakeland is extremely rich in natural wonders, from the huge expanse of Morecambe Bay teeming with birds, to the amazing natural phenomenon of limestone pavement at Hutton Roof with its woodland plants hidden away in the crevices in the rock. The nature conservation importance of many of these areas has been recognised by their designation as County Wildlife Sites, Local Nature Reserves, Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), and some even have the European designation of candidate Special Area of Conservation (cSAC). Many of these special areas are readily accessible and provide a chance to experience nature first-hand. So, in addition to being havens for wildlife, they provide people with the chance to stop for a moment and appreciate the natural world around them. The sense of well-being that arises from this experience is hard to beat. Access to natural greenspace and wildlife is now recognised for its benefits for people with mental illness or stress. Even being able to see trees and other aspects of nature can increase people’s recovery times from physical illnesses, and over 300 studies suggest that time spent in green spaces such as Local Nature Reserves is good for physical, mental and social well-being.
