  • Electoral Review of Salford City Council
    Electoral review of Salford City Council Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on Warding Patterns August 2018 1 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Salford in 2018 has changed dramatically since the city’s previous electoral review of 2002. Salford has seen a turnaround in its fortunes over recent years, reversing decades of population decline and securing high levels of investment. The city is now delivering high levels of growth, in both new housing and new jobs, and is helping to drive forward both Salford’s and the Greater Manchester economies. 1.2 The election of the Greater Manchester Mayor and increased devolution of responsibilities to Greater Manchester, and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, is fundamentally changing the way Salford City Council works in areas of economic development, transport, work and skills, planning, policing and more recently health and social care. 1.3 Salford’s directly elected City Mayor has galvanised the city around eight core priorities – the Great Eight. Delivering against these core priorities will require the sustained commitment and partnership between councillors, partners in the private, public, community and voluntary and social enterprise sectors, and the city’s residents. This is even more the case in the light of ongoing national policy changes, the impending departure of the UK from the EU, and continued austerity in funding for vital local services. The city’s councillors will have an absolutely central role in delivering against these core priorities, working with all our partners and residents to harness the energies and talents of all of the city.

  • Member Update
    MEMBER UPDATE JUNE 2020 | JUNE 2020 PAGE | 02 CHRIS SHIRLING-ROOKE REFLECTS It is my immense pleasure to welcome you to the June edition of the Mersey Maritime Ezine! Once again I am astounded by the volume of material we are able to present to you this month from a whole range of businesses and organisations connected with the maritime sector here in the Liverpool City Region and beyond. I can’t quite believe it is June, very nearly July, already as we have passed the longest day and by rights we should be looking forward to a little relaxation and refreshment over the summer months. This year has been quite different! The global pandemic continues to affect all of our lives, and whilst for many businesses their work has continued apace, I sense there’s a real desire to start returning to something that looks like ‘normal’. This will still mean being sensible, alert and alive to the new realities that the health crisis has thrown our way and recognising that it hasn’t yet gone away. It is worth reflecting for just a moment on where we are as an organisation and how we have responded to the challenge we’ve faced as a maritime community. During the last 15 weeks Mersey Maritime has: Continued to provide guidance and support for our 200 members E Delivered 22 digital events… … to over 550 individuals Issued 2 industry wide surveys, and C Fed the results into national and local government policy and planning. E I truly believe we are ‘Stronger Together’ and I hope you will agree that I Mersey Maritime has risen to the challenge that the last few weeks has presented to us all.

Peel plays a major role in local communities by creating jobs both directly and indirectly through its developments, and helping to drive a localised skills-based economy linked to future career opportunities. Over the last 20 years, in excess of 13,000 jobs have been created by Peel construction projects through buildings and related infrastructure delivered by the Group. In terms of employment and training opportunities, this has just been the start. Major developments including The Trafford Centre, MediaCityUK, Gloucester Quays and Liverpool2 have created in excess of 20,000 indirect jobs in the retail, media and maritime sectors. At each stage of the development process the Peel Group looks to add value and 13,000+ opportunity through employment and training. During the construction of MediaCityUK, working with main contractor Lend Lease, jobs have been created in Peel ensured that 50% of the jobs created the construction of were taken up by residents from the Greater Peel projects since 1996 Manchester area and a substantial 12,862 people received training as part of the 12,000+ construction process.

    Contents Peel in the Northern Powerhouse with Powerful Partnerships working together to deliver Foreword 2 150 projects in the North Introduction 3 Joint objectives 4 What we bring 5 150 Projects 6 Our past 7 Our present 8 150 Our future 9 Shared agency 10 Joint benefits 11 1 October 2015 Foreword The North of England led the Industrial Revolution, by a combination of people, natural resources, ideas and place. Having faced major challenges in the 20th century, the North is now repositioning itself – through regeneration, technology and science, connectivity and sustainable resources. The Peel Group has, through powerful partnerships, played a part in this renaissance, by investing in transport infrastructure, media, energy and property. The Northern Powerhouse is a recognition of the scale and potential of the Northern economy, and the objective to achieve significant growth to rebalance the UK economy. As a strategic private sector investor that reinvests and recycles capital in the North, our prosperity and wellbeing is inherently linked to that of the North. We work with a wide range of partners, bringing ideas and solutions, land and water resources, expertise and capital. We take a long term perspective and have a strong track record of facilitating and delivering investment, driven by our motto of ‘determination, perseverance and patience’. We are greatly excited by the potential of the Northern Powerhouse and devolution to our public sector partners in the North. It is vital that strong leadership and clear, ambitious plans are put in place to secure direct investment in the Northern Powerhouse by both the private sector and by Government.
