  • This Branch Is Closing – but We're Still Here to Help
    1 | 1 This branch is closing – but we’re still here to help Our Leicester Highfields branch is closing on Friday 11 December 2020. Branch closure feedback, and alternative ways to bank 2 | 3 Sharing branch closure feedback We’re now nearing the closure of the Leicester Highfields branch of Barclays. Our first booklet explained why the branch is closing, and gave information on other banking services that we hope will be convenient for you. We do understand that the decision to close a branch affects different communities in different ways, so we’ve spoken to people in your community to listen to their concerns. We wanted to find out how your community, and particular groups within it, could be affected when the branch closes, and what we could do to help people through the transition from using the branch with alternative ways to carry out their banking requirements. There are still many ways to do your banking, including in person at another nearby branch, at your local Post Office or over the phone on 0345 7 345 3452. You can also go online to barclays.co.uk/waystobank to learn about your other options. Read more about this on page 6. If you still have any questions or concerns about these changes, now or in the future, then please feel free to get in touch with us by: Speaking to us in any of our nearby branches Contacting Amanda Allan, your Market Director for East Midlands. Email: [email protected] We contacted the following groups: We asked each of the groups 3 questions – here’s what they said: MP: Jonathan Ashworth In your opinion, what’s the biggest effect that this branch closing will have on your local Local council: community? Leicester City Council – Councillors Sharmen Rahman, Kirk Master and Aminur Thalukdar You said to us: There were some concerns that the branch Community groups: closure may have an impact on the way both Age UK businesses and personal customers can bank.

To do so would show a total lack of reference to the local communities. We have over many years been well supported by the Knighton community, via the public Community Meetings of the Council. They have supported us to improve our area and to run events. This has included financial support via grants which receive public backing at meetings. In contrast at the Stoneygate Ward Community Meetings such applications have not received support. There have been public expressions, we feel, that are based on ethnicity and class, which has resulted in no support being forthcoming. Moving Stoneygate Shops into the Stoneygate Ward will break a link developed with one community which shows its support in tangible As some of you may know, the local Ward Councils are shifting their boundaries and this directly affects the chance of FUTURE markets at Stoneygate, as your area will now become part of the Stoneygate Ward, as opposed to the supportive Knighton Ward.

  • Leicester and Leicestershire City Deal
    UNCLASSIFIED Leicester and Leicestershire City Deal UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED Executive Summary Leicester and Leicestershire is a diverse and dynamic part of the Midlands and its success is integral to driving economic growth in the United Kingdom. The area is home to just under 1 million residents and over 32,000 businesses, many of which are in the manufacturing and logistics sectors. Leicester and Leicestershire also benefits from its location at the heart of the UK road network and close proximity to both the second largest freight handling airport in the UK and London (by rail). The area provides employment for 435,000 people and generates an estimated gross value added of £19.4 billion. Despite these strengths Leicester and Leicestershire faces a series of challenges: more than 25,000 jobs were lost between 2008 and 2011 (nearly twice the national average); youth unemployment is high within the city of Leicester and parts of the county; and whilst 70% of small and medium enterprises have plans for growth many find accessing the right type of business support is complex. Local businesses also note the difficulties in filling their vacancies. As part of the area’s wider Growth Strategy the City Deal seeks to tackle these key barriers. Over its lifetime the Leicester and Leicestershire Enterprise Partnership predicts the City Deal will deliver: • A new employment scheme targeted at 16-24 year olds that will reduce youth unemployment by 50% by 2018, deliver 3,000 new apprenticeships and 1,000 traineeships and work placements. • An innovative new employment and training scheme for young offenders.
