Executive summary In July 2015, it was announced that there would be eight new vanguards for urgent and emergency care. This included the West Yorkshire Urgent and Emergency Care Network that would oversee, with local partners, the improvement of urgent and emergency care for more than three million people in West Yorkshire. As part of this work it was identified that there was a need to undertake engagement on a proposed model for Hear, see and treat. Healthwatch organisations across West Yorkshire and the Harrogate District embarked on engagement over an eleven week period, from 18th July 2016 – 30th September 2016. A survey was designed to gain feedback from patients about their views on the Hear, see and treat proposals. Staff and volunteers from the Healthwatch organisations across West Yorkshire and the Harrogate District, went out to the most effective locations to ask people for their views. A wide range of activity took place, including: Sessions in hospital and GP practice waiting rooms Meetings with voluntary and community groups Attendance at sports days, colleges and care homes Overall, 147 face to face sessions were held across West Yorkshire and the Harrogate District.

  • And 14Th-Century West Yorkshire Wenyeva Atte Grene
    Locative and toponymic bynames in 13th- and 14th-century West Yorkshire Wenyeva atte grene Wendi Dunlap [email protected] Introduction The Wakeeld Court Rolls are records of manorial court proceedings from the Wakeeld Manor in the West Riding of Yorkshire. The earliest Roll extant is from 1274, and the records continue, with some breaks, until the 1920s. As records of the activity on the Manor, the Rolls contain many names of Wakeeld-area residents. The most common names in thirteenth century records are locative and toponymic, and though relationship names become more common in fourteenth century Rolls, locative and toponymic names continue to be seen in high numbers during this period. These names provide us with many period place name spellings, some of which are not found in other references commonly used in SCA onomastic research. The following names have been drawn from my unpublished research into the Rolls in 127475 and 135052. This content is much abbreviated for the purpose of this article; for reasons of space, I am only occasionally including etymologies of the place names included in these bynames. I am working from 20th century reprints of the Rolls. The Rolls of 1274 75 were published in both English and Latin in 1901, and I double-checked the Latin record as needed. Given names here were generally normalized from the Latin forms by the modern translator, with some exceptions, so most of these entries are not useful for determining period given name spellings. The surnames are not normalized unless noted, and are given in Latin if that was the form used.

  • Batley Grammar School: Impact Assessment
    Title: Batley Grammar School Author: Department for Education (DfE) Annex A Impact Assessment – Section 9 Academies Act Duty 1 Section 9 of the Academies Act 2010 places a duty upon the Secretary of State to take into account what the impact of establishing the additional school would be likely to be on maintained schools, Academies and institutions within the further education sector in the area in which the additional school is (or is proposed to be) situated. Background 2 The proposal is for is for a 700 place 4-18 school located on the existing site of Batley Grammar School, Carlinghow Hill, Batley, West Yorkshire, to open in September 2011. The school will have an initial capacity of 605 (September 2011), rising to 624 in 2012 and reaching capacity of 700 by 2014. The school is located in a deprived area and has excellent results, achieving significantly better than local maintained schools. There is a strong emphasis on maths, reflected in good and improving results. On the basis of this, the school intends to explore a mathematics specialism, which will increase options for the local area; there are no other schools in the local authority offering this specialism, and so this is unlikely to have a negative effect. Rather, it will enhance provision: the school intends to develop outreach projects and to work with other schools. The specialism will also provide an opportunity to support innovative teaching and free resources for local schools. 3 The school will develop existing links with local businesses and schools, including the Birkenshaw, Birstall, Gomersall (BBG) Academy Trust, Heckmondwike Grammar School (a converter Academy 2010), and on-going discussions with Batley Business and Enterprise College to explore the possibility of sharing staff and support services.
