Ns171012dwr Devon Community Compossting Network CDW/12/27 Devon Authorities Waste Reduction and Recycling Joint Committee 25 October 2012 Devon Community Composting Network Report of the Devon Community Composting Network Co-ordinator Please note that the following recommendations are subject to consideration and determination by the Committee before taking effect. Recommendation: It is recommended that members approve the proposed budget of £38,346 for 2013/14 1. Summary This report contains: • An outline of recent activities • Proposed activities for 2013/14 • Proposed budget for 2013/14 (app II) 2. 2012/13 Activities Composting in Schools 154 schools now have cooked food waste composting equipment in Devon (including Plymouth and Torbay). Since October, 67 Devon schools have been visited by the DCCN Co-ordinator (and the new Composting Education Assistant from Easter onwards), several more than once, mostly to help with teething problems. On these visits, various activities were undertaken including assemblies, troubleshooting, fixing equipment, training staff, gathering important data and advising on gardening and other waste minimisation activities. See App I for a full list of schools visited. Cost savings Since the DAWRRC meeting in October 2011 more school cost saving data has been gathered. It is still far from straightforward assessing the benefits in purely financial terms but, for example, the case studies reveal one school, Holsworthy primary reporting savings of £960 per annum after putting in composting and other waste saving measures; South Molton College reports saving £410 a year and Whipton Barton £320. Compost Special The second, and improved ‘Compost Special’, how to start and maintain a food waste composting system in schools, was produced by the Co-ordinator with help from Devon County Council and Resource Futures. It is being sent to named contacts in schools as both a paper and e-mailed PDF copy and on demand to interested schools. It can be downloaded from the home page of the DCCN website www.dccn.org.uk Community composting In 11/12, 1,941t of green waste was composted by the 20 Community Composting groups in Devon which avoided landfill costs of £174,690 (at £90 p/t). New Post Melissa Harvey started work after Easter and she has already made herself invaluable. She has packed in over 30 school visits already, produced a Google map to plot visits, designed an e-mail bulletin for schools and created a new PowerPoint assembly for schools. Conference It was decided not to have a conference this year and instead have a strategy day which will invite representatives from the organisations that currently work in Devon’s schools and are involved in waste, sustainability and gardening. Consequently an event is being held on 9 October at Embercombe to explore ways in which we can work together more effectively and have invited; Food for Life Partnership, Garden Organic, Resource Futures, Devon Gardens Trust, Koru Education and other members from the Devon Education for Sustainability Working Group as well as teachers, head teachers and catering staff. Junk Mail/website The newsletter for Devon Community Recycling and Composting Networks is produced by Richard Gomme DCRN and Nicky Scott DCCN. Request for paper copies can be made to either co-ordinator or the complete archive can be accessed on line at www.dccn.org under the ‘newsletters’ tab including the ‘special’ school’s compost editions. Time (visits) with districts (schools in districts mostly) Oct 2011 to Aug 2012 East Devon 8 Exeter 14 Mid 27 North 33 Plymouth 27 South Hams 26 Teignbridge 31 Torbay 17 Torridge 30 West 21 3. Proposed main activities DCCN will continue to maintain its core activities of: representing, supporting and informing the community composting in Devon, strategic development, and encouraging partnership working with Local Authorities. • Quarterly editions of newsletter ‘Junk Mail’. • Continuing to develop schools composting in Devon with the co-ordinator and assistant visiting a target of 20 schools per month. • Developing closer networking with Resource Futures, Food for Life and other organisations working along complementary lines. • Promoting our school’s work to other Local Authorities that are beginning to be interested in developing food waste composting systems. • Update the DCCN website www.dccn.org.uk . • Represent the interests of composting in its links to climate change and associated activities where appropriate, and work with the DCRN co-ordinator in developing opportunities for the Devon Community Networks. 4. Sustainability Considerations The work of DCCN contributes towards: • waste reduction, in Devon, transforming an often wasted resource into valuable compost. • developing the capacity and expertise of social enterprise and community businesses with environmental, social and local economic objectives • helping every school to become a sustainable school. • achieving the new Local Authority Performance Indicator N191 for a ‘thriving third sector’. • developing joint strategies and partnership working with Local Authorities. • more sustainable communities with better participation & access to local facilities and services. 5. Equality and Diversity Community composting is socially inclusive. Composting in schools engages children of all academic abilities, ties in with curriculum and teaches them about life skills. 6. Legal Considerations The implications of the recommendations and proposed course of action have been taken into account in preparing the report. 7. Options/alternatives Devon is unique in having a Community composting network and as a consequence has more community groups than any other county and is unrivalled in its pioneering schools work. Without the network there would be no development and support for new schools and community projects.

Action Plan p59 Appendix: Tavistock Statement of Significance p62 Bibliography p76 Acknowledgement The author is grateful to Alex Mettler and Barry Gamble for their assistance in preparing this strategy. 1 Introduction This strategy sets out a framework and action plan for improving interpretation in Tavistock and for enabling the town to fulfil the requirements of a Key Centre within the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site (WHS). It is intended to complement the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Learning Strategy (Kell 2013) which concentrates on learning activities and people. Consequently the focus here is primarily on interpretive content and infrastructure rather than personnel. Aims and objectives The brief set by the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Steering Group was to identify a consistent, integrated approach to presenting the full range of themes arising from the Outstanding Universal Value of WHS Areas 8, 9 and 10 and to respond to the specific recommendations arising from the WHS Interpretation Strategy (WHS 2005). We were asked to: x Address interpretation priorities in the context of the Cornish Mining WHS x Identify and prioritise target audiences x Set out a clearly articulated framework and action plan for the development of interpretation provision in WHS Area 10, including recommendations which address x Product development (i.e.
