The Treasure Act 1996 is an enduring and thriving success, ensuring that museums are able to acquire the most significant archaeological discoveries for the benefit of all. 2011 saw a record number of potential Treasure finds reported in England and Wales (969), representing a 12.8% increase over the number reported in the previous year. Of these items, 345 have been (or are to be) acquired by museums. Many museum acquisitions have been made possible only through the kind assistance of funding bodies, particularly the Art Fund, Headley Trust, Heritage Lottery Fund, National Heritage Memorial Fund and the V&A Purchase Grant Fund. We should be thankful to these organisations for their recognition of the importance of archaeological finds and their support of museums’ efforts to acquire them. I am also impressed with local fundraising campaigns, and it is heartening to see so many individuals and organisations in local communities supporting the acquisition of Treasure items and investing in their heritage.

  • Sports Facilities Strategy Appendices
    APPENDIX 1: NATIONAL CONTEXT HAMBLETON DISTRICT COUNCIL STRATEGIC DOCUMENT SUMMARY KEY POINTS NATIONAL CONTEXT A NEW STRATEGY FOR The Department for Culture, Media and Sport released a new strategy for Sport in December 2015 - the government’s sport strategy SPORT – DEPARTMENT Sporting Future: A New Strategy for an Active Nation. FOR CULTURE, MEDIA AND SPORT 2016 Public investment into community sport is to reach children as young as five. The move will see Sport England’s remit changed from investing in sport for those aged 14 and over to supporting people from five years old right through to pensioners, in a bid to create a more active nation. Investment will be targeted at sport projects that have a meaningful, measurable impact on how they are improving people’s lives – from helping young people gain skills to get into work, to tackling social inclusion and improving physical and mental health. Funding will also be targeted at groups who have low participation rates to encourage those who do not take part in sport and physical activity to get involved. This includes supporting women, disabled people, those in lower socio-economic groups and older people. Sport England will set up a new fund in 2016 to get inactive people physically active and will support and measure participation in sport and wider physical activity going forward. At the elite end of sport, government is supporting our Olympic and Paralympic athletes beyond Rio 2016 through to Tokyo 2020 with increased exchequer funding. The key driver for the strategy is to increase participation in sport and physical activity and to make activity an integral part of everyday life in the UK, for everyone.

  • Affordable Housing Supplementary Planning Document
    HAMBLETON DISTRICT COUNCIL Report To: Cabinet 17 March 2015 Subject: AFFORDABLE HOUSING SUPPLEMENTARY PLANNING DOCUMENT All Wards Portfolio Holder for Environmental and Planning Services: Councillor B Phillips 1.0 PURPOSE AND BACKGROUND: 1.1 This report seeks Cabinet approval and recommendation to Council that the revised Draft Affordable Housing Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) is adopted. Annex ‘A’ of this Cabinet Report contains the revised version of this SPD. 1.2 The SPD will replace the current Affordable Housing SPD which was adopted in June 2008. 1.3 The revised SPD provides more detailed guidance on the interpretation and implementation of the Council’s affordable housing policies. It is more user friendly, easier to navigate and includes hyperlinks to other relevant documents and more clearly articulates the different approaches for delivering affordable homes through planning gain and through the development of exception sites. It includes ‘minimum’ size standards that the Council is seeking in light of Welfare Reform changes. 1.4 The Draft document has been subject to an extended public consultation from 13 October 2014 to 26 January 2015. Consultees included Registered Provider partners, developers, the Homes and Communities Agency, the Home Builders Federation, Parish and Town Councils. A copy of the Draft document was posted on the Council’s website and placed in local libraries. As part of the consultation process a stakeholder meeting was also held for developers and Registered Providers. A Consultation Statement is attached as Annex B of this report. 1.5 Written responses were received from eight consultees - the Home Builders Federation, the Homes and Communities Agency, North Yorkshire County Council, North York Moors National Park Authority, Easingwold Town Council, affordable housing consultants, a small private developer, and Broadacres.
