They play a very important role in our lives and we just wouldn’t be the same without them. You may have heard me mention that we have a cat called Ginger who is 19 years old. He has led an exciting life, having grown up in Switzerland, but when my sister relocated back to the UK Ginger came to stay with us and, 3 years later, he is still here. You can see a photograph of Ginger on page 37. Natalie recently won a pet photoshoot with Mark Hewitson Photography and now we have amazing photos of Ginger to treasure forever.

The focus of the BCRA was to fund emergency response activity, giving grants to charities, organisations and community groups helping to alleviate some of the negative impact of COVID-19 on the local area.

The cocktails were nicely boxed and it was exciting to open them and tuck in. Not having any cocktail glasses ourselves we purchased a selection of affordable glasses from a local supermarket, we had ice in the freezer, the fruit bowl was brimming with a variety of tropical fruits so we were ready for a special birthday celebration. Pornstar Martini has always been one of our favourite cocktails, Alex’s creation tasted exactly as it should. It felt like we were on a fun night out and we could let our hair down. The Mai Tai was a very popular choice, it tasted sharp yet sweet with a lovely tropical flavour to finish off and the Cosmopolitan was perfect for the party. The Raspberry Margarita reminded us of relaxing holidays in the sunshine beside the sea. We would definitely order these again! Alex also offers classic cocktails such as daiquiris, margaritas and mojitos. He told us “This year due to Covid-19, after conversing with various friends about missing the bar scene and making drinks, the idea to bottle our own was born! So I hope you guys like what you see! We are always experimenting and looking at new recipes, if you have a favourite let us know, maybe it could be a new addition to the line up”. Doorstep Bartender offers free delivery within a certain radius.

Doorstep Bartender was created in 2019 after many years in the hospitality industry. I have worked in a variety of businesses, completed a degree in International Hospitality Management, and spent time abroad working in the industry. I have always wanted to run my own business, so I started working with local companies who motivated me to start my own venture. My experience, knowledge and curiosity has given me an insight into what guests enjoy and how best to accommodate their palates. I worked in a wine bar in Oxford under the tutelage of a Master of Wine and at the Botanist in Marlow for many years. I started running my own home based event’s company, creating cocktail experiences in people’s homes, whilst still working in the industry. Fast forward to this year, Covid 19 popped up, and the country went into lockdown with the hospitality industry grinding to a halt. I spent a lot of time thinking about cocktails and how I could add to my business in a different way. Whilst following the industry closely I noticed a lot of other businesses creating their own bottled cocktail serves, from top end bars to smaller ones around the country. With those businesses as motivation I wanted to create some of my own, and share some cocktail love with my own recipes. I revitalised my own brand and I’m now delivering my own cocktails within a 10 mile radius of Marlow, with future plans for national delivery. I am also connecting with a variety of local businesses and we are creating new ideas together. I also plan on working with local producers to obtain the finest premium ingredients to go into the cocktails. The menu is always evolving to keep it fresh and seasonal. As people begin to have more gatherings this is the perfect time to provide a new option for their events; with the added bonus that I can also supply event solutions if needed.

  • Town and Parish Councils in Aylesbury, Chiltern, South Bucks and Wycombe District Council Areas
    Town and Parish Councils in Aylesbury, Chiltern, South Bucks and Wycombe District Council areas. Dear Town or Parish Council, Creation of Parish Charter You will no doubt be aware that contrary to published expectations there was no announcement from DCLG about a reorganisation of local government in Buckinghamshire in March. We have now been informed that, in the light of the General Election, the current government will make no decision in relation to the unitary question. There will need to be a formal consideration of the submissions that have been made by the new government. Whilst we are disappointed that this Government has not yet announced support for our proposals, we remain confident that a new Government will recognise the merits of the District Council proposal and create two new unitaries in Buckinghamshire. In the meantime you will be aware that the County Council has launched an online survey for anyone to indicate their views and express support for their preferred unitary option. Obviously we welcome your support in completing the survey in favour of two unitaries and the District proposal but recognise that surveys are not everyone’s cup of tea and it is very much up to you. The link is below if you would like to do so. http://futurebucks.co.uk/yourviews/ In the meantime we are keen to ensure that we do not lose momentum in taking forward some of the ideas in our proposals which we feel do not require a decision from government. In particular we suggested that a Town and Parish Charter would enable us to develop an understanding with parishes about how we want to work together moving forward.

  • Inequalities in Britain, Sociology Review, 21, 1, 15-19
    Dorling, D. and Thomas, B. (2011) Mapping Inequalities in Britain, Sociology Review, 21, 1, 15-19. Inequalities in Britain Danny Dorling and Bethan Thomas This paper draws on three of the key topics we discuss in our new atlas, Bankrupt Britain: An atlas of social change (Dorling and Thomas 2011). 1. Public sector cuts: local and national implications In June 2010 the Department for Communities and Local Government published what is likely to become one of the most infamous documents of the economic recession, titled Local government contribution to efficiencies in 2010/11 (DCLG 2010). This document set out what many have argued are some of the most unfairly distributed cuts ever to be imposed on local government in England. The poor and the poorest areas of the country appeared to have been targeted to receive the deepest and most sustained cuts. This mirrored the effects of the national budget of that month that was also found, on examination by the Institute for Fiscal Studies (2010), to be highly regressive (taking more from the poor as a proportion of their income than from the rich). It may well not have been a coincidence that almost all of the areas to suffer the greatest service cuts contained a large majority of people who had voted against the two parties that had come to form the new coalition government. Map 1 shows where the main cuts will, from April 2011, hit most, least, and not at all. These are the first relatively modest local government cuts, of 'just' £6 billion. However, not a penny of that £6 billion is to be saved by the citizens of generally well-heeled districts such as Chiltern, South Bucks, most of Devon, Christchurch, most of Dorset, Cheltenham, the Cotswolds, Winchester, Broxbourne, most of Hertfordshire, Tunbridge Wells, Harrogate, most of Oxfordshire (but not Oxford), all of Surrey, the Malvern Hills and another hundred or so generally 'leafy' and mostly 'Tory' or 'Liberal Democrat' areas.

  • The Social Mobility Index
    The Social Mobility Index 1 Contents Foreword 3 What is the Social Mobility Index? 5 Summary 5 Methodology 6 Geographical variation in the Social Mobility Index 9 Analysing performance against the Social Mobility Index 18 Key Headlines 21 Early Years 28 School 31 Youth 34 Adulthood 37 2 Foreword On the morning after the election, the Prime Minister set a One Nation agenda for this Parliament. Britain, he said, should be “a place where a good life is in reach for everyone who is willing to work and do the right thing”. His would be a Government that offered opportunity to all, no matter where they came from. These are welcome commitments but in this report we examine the very real challenges facing the Government in creating a One Nation Britain. For the first time it identifies the most and the least socially mobile areas of the country. It does so by examining in detail the chances available to young people from poorer backgrounds in each of the 324 local authority areas in England to get the educational qualifications they need to succeed in life, and the opportunities in the local area to convert those qualifications into a good job and a decent standard of living. The Social Mobility Index uncovers a new geography of disadvantage in England. For decades the conventional wisdom has been that geographical inequalities in social mobility are drawn across simple boundaries: the North versus the South; rich areas versus poor areas; town versus country. Our analysis suggests that some of this is right – there are worrying signs, for example, that London and its commuter belt is pulling away from the rest of the country when it comes to the chances of youngsters getting into good schools and good jobs.
