Cathedral News November 2018 – No. 679 From: The Dean Safeguarding is much talked about in the Church of England, and in the nation more generally, but what does it mean in practice for us here at Exeter Cathedral? It is easy to focus on the preventative: on putting policies and processes in place to protect children and vulnerable adults from abuse and neglect. And that is very important, not least because of our Church’s woeful record, alongside many other institutions, over the past fifty years and more. Children and adults have every right to expect to be kept safe from harm when they come to the Cathedral: we speak of God as a loving Father, and all his children can surely expect us at the cathedral to embody and model his love and his protection when they visit us. But safeguarding also requires a proactive approach - to enable people to fulfil their potential and to flourish; or as Jesus puts it: “I have come that you may have life and have it abundantly.” Abundant life is the Good News we proclaim and pursue for everyone at the Cathedral: visitors, congregations, volunteers, staff and clergy alike. We have come a long way over the past 25 years, when the whole idea of safeguarding, or child protection as it was then called, was first introduced to the Church. But exactly how far, we shall know better in February, since the Cathedral is to receive a safeguarding audit from the Social Care Institute for Excellence. This body has worked its way through the dioceses of the Church of England, and is now turning its attention to cathedrals. -

At the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in 1996, John was elected to the sole remaining post of Vice President and continued in this capacity until the AGM in April 2007.

North Campus Strategic Regeneration Framework May 2017
Corridor Manchester: North Campus Strategic Regeneration Framework May 2017 Introduction This Strategic Regeneration Framework (SRF) has been prepared for Manchester City Council, with the intention that it can be used as a guide for the future redevelopment of Manchester’s North Campus – a site that is located south-west of Piccadilly Station; to the west of the Mayfield site and to the east of Oxford Road. The North Campus is one of the few large, centrally located sites in Manchester city centre yet to undergo major regeneration. There are vast opportunities that have been identified in the area that will allow this part of Manchester to reconnect with the city and with other redevelopments in its vicinity. It is anticipated that the North Campus will be able to provide and deliver numerous social, economic and environmental benefits to Manchester and to the wider North West region. This SRF analyses the existing location and identifies key characteristics which make North Campus a unique area of the city. An indicative masterplan has been proposed which brings together the key objectives and principles described in this framework, and sets out a framework that will help to ensure the success of the North Campus development. Key Contributors The North Campus SRF has been supported by a high calibre professional team with recognised urban design credentials and leading specialisms in the field of progressive, sustainable working environments for public and private sector clients. The team comprises the following: Bennetts Associates -

NHDOT Project No. 13065 I-93 Exit 4A FEIS Federal Highway Administration Record of Decision FHWA-NH-EIS-07-01-F Derry-Londonderry IM-0931(201) 13065 I-93 Exit 4A Rockingham County, New Hampshire 1.0 DECISION 1.1 Summary This Record of Decision (ROD) is for the proposed Interstate 93 (I-93) Exit 4A Project (Project). The Project, located in the Towns of Derry and Londonderry (the Towns), includes construction of a new interchange with I-93 (known as Exit 4A) and other transportation improvements to reduce congestion and improve safety along State Route 102 (NH 102), from I-93 easterly through downtown Derry, and to promote economic vitality in the Derry/Londonderry area. Based on the information presented in the 2007 Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS); 2018 Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Section 4(f) Evaluation (SDEIS); the 2020 Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS); all technical reports and supporting documentation incorporated by reference in the DEIS, SDEIS, and FEIS; and consideration of input received from other agencies and the public, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has selected Alternative A for implementation. Alternative A is the environmentally preferred alternative because it best balances the need for the Project with social, economic, and natural environmental concerns. -

What Is Manchester Today? by Joe Camposeo
WHAT IS MANCHESTER TODAY? By Joe Camposeo, Heritage Day, June 13, 2015, at Cheney Hall Introduction, by Susan Barlow, co-chair of Heritage Day: Our keynote speaker for Heritage Day is our Town Clerk, Joseph V. Camposeo. He was elected Town Clerk and has served since 1996, before which he served on the Board of Directors (1991-1996) and the Board of Education (1978-1988). Joe has been named to various committees for legislation, technology, education, elections, and historic preservation. Joe has been a member of the Manchester Rotary, UNICO, Army & Navy Club, President of the Manchester Sports Hall of Fame, and President of the Manchester Scholarship Foundation. Joe’s family came here from Italy, and brought their customs, language, music, and food, as have many before and since. Joe’s office, at Town Hall, works with Manchester’s diverse population, and he’s the perfect speaker to kick off today’s Heritage Day, celebrating what Manchester is today. It was about sixty years ago, I stood here in this storied building called Cheney Hall. I was here delivering The Manchester Evening Herald with a neighborhood “buddy” who I helped with his paper route. We began at the fire station next door, where the “Herald” delivery truck left off the newspapers. From here we delivered to the mansions and then the apartments and the small businesses along Main Street. Our deliveries ended at the Army & Navy Club where each day the bar keeper would give us a free “Coke.” The pleasant memories of that paper route have become a reminder to me of how little Manchester has changed. -
