Allerdale Local Plan (Part 1)
Allerdale Borough Council Allerdale Local Plan (Part 1) Strategic and Development Management Policies July 2014 www.allerdale.gov.uk/localplan Foreword To meet the needs of Allerdale’s communities we need a plan that provides for new jobs to diversify and grow our economy and new homes for our existing and future population whilst balancing the need to protect the natural and built environment. This document, which covers the area outside the National Park, forms the first part of the Allerdale Local Plan and contains the Core Strategy and Development Management policies. It sets a clear vision, for the next 15 years, for how new development can address the challenges we face. The Core Strategy will guide other documents in the Allerdale Local Plan, in particular the site allocations which will form the second part of the plan. This document is the culmination of a great deal of public consultation over recent years, and extensive evidence gathering by the Council. The policies in the Plan will shape Allerdale in the future, helping to deliver sustainable economic development, jobs and much needed affordable housing for our communities.

COENEN* Few tales from human experience are more compelling than that of the mutiny on the Bounty and its extraordinary after- math. On April 28, 1789, crew members of the Bounty, led by Fletcher Christian, seized the ship and its commanding officer, William Bligh.' After being set adrift with eighteen sympathiz- ers in the Bounty's launch, Bligh navigated to landfall across 3600 miles of ocean in "the greatest open-boat voyage in the his- tory of the sea."2 Christian, in the meantime, recognized that only the gallows awaited him in England and so laid plans to start a new and hidden life in the South Pacific.' After briefly returning to Tahiti, Christian set sail for the most untraceable of destinations: the uncharted and uninhabited Pitcairn's Is- * Professor, University of Georgia Law School.

H.M.S. Bounty on April 27, 1789, She Was an Unrated, Unassuming Little

Written evidence submitted by Age UK West Cumbria Ltd Third sector and charity case study evidence submitted to the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Parliamentary Select Committee – April 2020 AGE UK WEST CUMBRIA LIMITED Type of organisation/governance: Limited by guarantee, Co Reg – 06047495, Charity Com – 1122049. It is one of 140 brand partners of Age UK, working across the United Kingdom. Purpose of organisation: To promote the relief of older people in Allerdale and Copeland Geographic area covered: Allerdale & Copeland in West Cumbria Who am I? I’m CEO and have been involved with this Charity at the coalface since June 2018. I have 30 years’ experience as a restructuring & turnaround specialist and I’m a former licensed insolvency practitioner. My focus has been reshaping the charity to be sustainable & relevant for the future. In my line of work the most precious resource is time, time to restructure or turn a business. Time is also limited for our vulnerable older people in Allerdale & Copeland. The charity is a classic example of one that has been over reliant on its reserves in the last 3 years while its income levels have continued to drop from an historical high of £2.2 million. Headcount has also dropped from 118 to 52 in 2 years, BUT the Covid-19 crisis that has come from the left field may tip over the charity. We are fighting hard to avoid this outcome. Work being done during Covid19: 1. Information & Advice 2. Food Parcels 3. Home from Hospital (To increase exit flow from the NHS & hence capacity) 4. -

Dales Way Association eNewsletter No 50 Spring 2017 DWA Members walking on Ilkley Moor prior to the 2016 AGM The Dales Way Association PO Box 334, Shipley, BD18 9DZ [email protected] After Winter Gloom …. Spring’s blue sky After a miserable winter with newspapers and television screens filled with semi-coherent tweets from a certain Presidential ego-maniac, not to mention pre-and post-Brexit self-inflicted gloom and despondency, Spring is finally here and with it the chance of some decent weather and longer days to enjoy the Yorkshire Dales – just voted Britain’s favourite National Park. And what better way than to escape our rubbish-filled electronic screens by exploring that same National Park by walking, or maybe re-walking, part or all the Dales Way? Thankfully the long saga of flood damage problems on the Dales Way in Cumbria is now all behind us. Thanks to the hard work of so many rangers, footpath officers, contractors and National Park and other volunteers, almost all the Dales Way is now fully re-opened for walking. You will read elsewhere of what has been achieved over the autumn and winter. In fact, there is especially good news from Burneside as exciting plans forming the vibrant, community-led Burneside Vision to develop the village as a community-led eco- and visitor-friendly place to call in or stay on the Dales Way begin to be rolled out. Top news is a new small brewery at Bowston, north of the village alongside the River Kent, waiting to welcome walkers, which is also planned to soon have a walkers’ and cyclists’ cafe and a shop. -
