Staff in 2015/2016 Project Manager Sue Trainor Qualified Social Worker Social Inclusion Worker Catherine Greenwood Qualified Social Worker Social Inclusion Worker Sarah Guyers Maternity Cover from November 2015 Administration Worker Fiona Bououden Part -time Aims and Objectives as set out in the “Articles of Association” “The charity is established to relieve the following charitable needs of older people living in Otley, Pool and Arthington: 1) To relieve poverty 2) To preserve and protect good health 3) To advance education; and 4) To promote the social inclusion of such people who are excluded from society because they are house-bound, or who are unable to drive or easily access public transport and to assist them to integrate into society by such means as the trustees deem fit.” Background Otley Action for Older People (OAOP) is a long established and successful community-based organisation working on behalf of the older population of Otley, Pool and Arthington. The project was first conceived in 1995 and in 1996 was granted charitable status (the organisation was originally registered under charity number 1060379) setting itself the clear objectives as listed in the original constitution. OAOP is open to all people over 60 within the Otley, Pool-in-Wharfedale and Arthington areas. Otley Action for Older People is a member of the Leeds Neighbourhood Network Scheme (NNS), a network of voluntary sector organisations working with defined communities to identify and address local priorities and work in partnership with statutory services to support independent living for older people. OAOP primarily targets activities and services to the needs of low-income older people, older people with disabilities and those threatened by or experiencing social exclusion. However, there is an open door policy and thus activities are open to those aged over 60, except where there are defined criteria. The organisation is located in the north west of the Leeds Metropolitan district. Otley, Pool and Arthington are set within a rural area and are outside the Leeds Regeneration area. There are over 3000 older people living within Otley (that equates to approximately 24% of the population). Eight per cent of these are over 75 and two per cent over 85. Among the over 60s, 71 % are owner-occupiers, 18% local authority rental and 11% other rental. High proportions are living alone (49% of our membership). OAOP currently has in excess of 950 members registered on the database. OAOP has five staff members and is supported by over 70 volunteers who are trained and experienced at working with older people. The volunteer workforce engages in a wide range of tasks and activities to ensure that the work of the organisation is carried out to a high standard. The staff team organises, manages and oversees the volunteers and also provides practical and emotional support. Governance of the organisation is provided by the Board of Directors, which includes local older people (currently 70 %) and members of the local community to ensure co-production in the development of services that are provided and decisions made. Consultation and feedback from members is also actively sought at varying intervals and occasions. As an organisation we have a continual improvement philosophy and a desire to increase the quality of services and outcomes available to older people. Otley Action for Older People (OAOP) provides activities and services for adults over the age of 60. The primary aims are focused around social inclusion and equality. This is enacted by enabling reductions in poverty, increasing active participation and providing person centred support for people to live in their own homes for as long as is possible. Services include home visits, assessments, information and signposting, shopping, lunch clubs, exercise classes, social groups and outings. Chair’s Report It seems a very short time ago that I was writing the 2015 report but looking back a lot has happened in the last 12 months. Catherine left to have her baby, Jack but will be returning in September on a part-time basis. Sarah joined us and has become a valuable member of staff. We now also have Nikki who will be responsible for the Health Together Project. Fiona has left and been replaced by Julia so we now have a core of workers all dedicated in what they do and I am sure that we will go from strength to strength in the year ahead. Sue still leads the group with her usual enthusiasm and is very good at getting people to donate money, which is of course essential in our work. Personally, I love doing the work I do for OAOP. Time flies past when we are helping people and I think we really do make a difference to large numbers of our service users. I would like to add congratulations to Peggy Sykes for obtaining her Honorary Citizenship this year. She was our oldest Director until she retired in her 90s. She still seems to keep an eye on her neighbours and the area that she lives in and that is what we are all about; looking after those who need us sometimes long-term and sometimes just to help someone over a “rough patch”. We have a brilliant reputation in the town and this I am sure will go on for the foreseeable future and hopefully long after that. Lastly we have been very lucky with our students this year. Sandi and Lucy have left us and we now have Anjum. Sandi has quite a few good ideas that she has put into practice whilst she was here. Lucy’s mother was unfortunately quite ill while she was here, but she still worked which I am sure was very hard for her. Anjum seems to be settling in well. We will be recruiting more volunteers as a lot of Nikki’s work will be one on one, plus groups and a drop in centre downstairs three times a week. Lots is happening and I am looking forward to being involved for a few years yet. Doris Gagen Chairman Project Manager’s Report Otley Action for Older People is without a doubt an organisation that is now a well-established part of our community, and continues to deliver high quality and essential services to our members. In many senses the year under review (2015/2016) was another hugely successful year. Further service developments, and yet also further consolidation. The most important people to our organisation are our members and making sure that we continue to deliver and expand our services to meet their needs and requirements is fundamental to what we do. At the end of March 2016 we had 953 members on our register. Staff In 2015 we were delighted when Catherine Greenwood our Social Inclusion Worker announced that she was expecting a baby in November. Whilst we knew that Catherine would be missed by all, we quickly recruited her temporary replacement Sarah Guyers. Sarah hit the ground running and has been a real asset to the organisation. The Board of Directors were so impressed with Sarah’s performance they decided to extend her contract. Sadly, Fiona our Administration and Support Worker left at the end of March 2015 and we are currently recruiting her replacement. In 2015 we were successful in acquiring funding from the Leeds North CCG to employ a Health Impact Worker. We recruited in March 2016 and Nikki Sloper will be joining us in the coming year. Craig Marshall who had been tending to the gardens of our members for the last ten years retired at the end of 2015. It was very sad to see Craig go as he had been a much loved and respected member of staff for 10 years. The board were left with a very difficult decision to make about the future of the gardening service. A feasibility study was undertaken and it was decided to bring it to a close. The service had been highly subsidised for a number of years and there were a number of good local gardeners available to take on the workload. Transport The community car scheme has been going from strength to strength and in the past 12 months our students and volunteers have undertaken 435 journeys to a variety of places including hospitals, doctors, dentists, opticians, and banks and shopping. At the end of the year we had 14 volunteer minibus drivers registered with us. Whilst some drive regularly every week, others are only available at certain times of the year.

  • This Meanwood Valley Walk Download
    An introduction to the The Meanwood Valley has long been celebrated as a ‘green artery’ in Leeds, bringing rural countryside into the heart of the city. In this green corridor is a rich mosaic of habitats, including woodland, lowland heath, meadow, watercourses and ponds. Though much of the valley is readily accessible from local urban areas, it provides an excellent opportunity to experience and enjoy wildlife in often seemingly-remote surroundings. The valley is centred on two watercourses, the topmost being Adel Beck which rises in Bramhope, but which gives way to Meanwood Beck just south of the Outer Ring Road. The becks are home to fish, such as stone loach and bullhead, as well as the native white-clawed crayfish, which is sadly now threatened. Keep your eyes open when walking near the becks and you may be lucky to spot one of our resident kingfishers or otters. Where the becks flow between boulders and within the woodland, the cool, moist conditions provide the perfect habitat for ferns, liverworts and mosses. In contrast, the poor, free-drain - ing soils and open and exposed conditions at Adel Moor are ideal for heather and if you’re particularly lucky, you may spot the com - mon lizards which live here. Small ponds along the valley are also the breeding grounds of frogs, toads and newts, including the protected great crested newt. The woodlands that cover much of the green space in the valley provide wonderful scenes of carpets of ground flora in spring and rich colours in the autumn. Mammals such as roe deer, stoats and several species of bats make the woodland their home, together with a wide variety of bird species, from house sparrows and long-tailed tits to jays, red kites and all three native woodpecker – the great spotted, lesser spotted and green woodpecker.

  • Faecal Bacteria Data from Samples Collected on the 24Th August 2020
    Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWHARFE Improving water quality on the River Wharfe from Oughtershaw to the Ouse A citizen science project Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWharfe is a citizen science project. It involves members of communities along the Wharfe valley, working together with the Environment Agency, Yorkshire Water and other agencies. It is funded by local donations and grants. The project was designed to provide a snapshot of water quality condi- tions along the entire length of the river on a single day and to raise awareness about water quality issues both for people and wildlife. Water samples were collected on the 24th August 2020. Here we report on results from samples analysed for faecal bacteria, the organisms in wastewater that cause gastro-intestinal illness. Executive Summary 1. The R. Wharfe “Big Health Check” on the 24th August 2020 involved five teams of citizen scien- tists taking water samples from 60 sites along the R. Wharfe at approximately the same time on the same day. 2. Although riverflow was relatively high, conditions were similar along the full length of the river. 3. Samples for faecal bacteria analysis were stored in cool boxes and hand-delivered to a collection point in Wakefield. They were analysed for E. coli and Intestinal Enterococci (IE) at ALS Ltd Cov- entry, an accredited microbiology laboratory, within 24 hours of sampling. 4. The results showed high concentrations of both E. coli and IE at sites between Buckden and Barden Bridge in Upper Wharfedale and at Beanlands Island in Ilkley, relatively low concentra- tions in Langstrothdale and in the stretch from Bolton Abbey to Ilkley Suspension Bridge, and var- iable concentrations downstream from Burley to the Ouse confluence at Cawood.

  • Adel Walks Booklet
    ADEL WALKS Adel Neighbourhood Forum Contact us: [email protected] Introduction Everyone talks about the greenery of Adel but very few appreciate the woods on our doorstep. We walk there regularly and it is not unusual to see no one in an hour walking through this beautiful landscape. There are many paths that cross through the woods but few clearly signposted footpaths and landmarks. Most of Adel Wood is probably not ancient woodland and throughout the woods there are the remains of boundary walls. What we are going to suggest in this leaflet are a few simple circular walks starting from either Adel Parish Church, Adel St John’s Primary School on Long Causeway or Adel Primary School on Tile Lane. There is no one route and many cross over and join other walks that mean you can spend as little as just under an hour in the woods or up to 2 – 3 hours. One of the ancient meanings of the name Adel was boggy ground so wellies or walking boots are recommended apart from long dry spells. All of the walks are safe for adults and children if approached sensibly but paths through the woods are not generally suitable for pushchairs. An approximate walking time has been given for most of the walks but this is clearly dependent very much on your own speed. We suggest trying one of the shorter walks first if you aren’t confident and use that to judge how long some of the other walks are likely to take. This leaflet has been produced on behalf of the Adel Neighbourhood Forum and we are very grateful to Ian Bond who has prepared all the descriptions.

  • Tram-Trains Or Heavy Rail
    Harrogate Line: Tram-Trains or Heavy Rail A summary of the advantages & disadvantages of alternative rolling stock on the Harrogate Line between Leeds, Harrogate and the Airport TRAM-TRAIN DIRECT TO THE AIRPORT? This paper outlines the current plans and initiatives already being implemented for the Leeds-Harrogate- York rail corridor which could be jeopardised by the Tram-trains proposed by Greg Mulholland MP for Leeds North-West. He proposes that new tram-trains should be used on street-running track within Leeds City Centre, which would then share the Harrogate Line heavy rail track to beyond Horsforth where a new light rail track would be laid up to the Airport Terminal Building and potentially onward to Bradford. The disadvantages of tram-trains are summarised on pages 2 & 3. HARROGATE LINE PLANS CURRENTLY BEING IMPLEMENTED • The existing 30 min. frequency services between Leeds and Harrogate are being enhanced to an all-day 15 min. frequency in the current Northern Rail franchise from December 2017. • It is expected that a 10 minute frequency will be required to meet peak demand during the next decade. • The planned rolling stock will be provided using refurbished 100mph Class 170 diesel multiple units (DMUs) cascaded from Scotrail plus refurbished Class 150 DMUs from the existing Northern Rail fleet. These will provide a significant increase in the net volume of seats available to commuters when the new timetable is implemented in [2018] • Virgin Trains East Coast will also operate new services between London and Harrogate at two- hourly intervals from 2019. These will be operated using the new high speed IEP trains now being built by Hitachi.
