We are there for each other when times are tough and we rally together when we need to achieve. Strengths At St B’s we have a warm, close, family congregation that care deeply for each other. We always pull together and work well as a team which is very important with such a small congregation. We not only worship together but also spend much time socialising together as well. We organise regular events with lots of laughter and fun. We are capable of achieving great things when we put our minds to something. Two years ago we took on the mammoth challenge of raising £25,000 for a disabled toilet after we realised that the lack of facilities was impacting on some of our members and visitors. We also raised the funds to re‐ carpet the church floor. We have fulfilled much of our MAP together, such as increasing the regular Junior Church sessions we offer on Sundays and hosting study groups at key times such as Advent and Lent. Weakness St B’s has a small congregation and many of the members are older in age. This means that physical work (setting up Church Fayres, etc) is left to just a few people and this can prove difficult to organise at times. We have struggled with finances for many years and although we generally manage to balance our books we are reliant on a pastoral grant of £10,000, without which St Benedict’s would struggle to survive. Although St B’s is centred in the middle of Bennetts End, our visibility within the community is not as we would like it to be. Many local people are unaware that there is even a church within the parish. Page | 3 What we are looking for in a new team vicar The new Team Vicar of St B’s will need to be vibrant and outgoing, capable of encouraging fun, laughter and worship within the church. We have a relaxed style of worship at St B’s and wish for this to continue. However, we are open to trying new styles of worship. We are proud to host a real mix of congregants with different views and values and the new vicar will need to be able to unify us through a mix of prayer, song and worship. It would also be great if the new vicar would be willing to pick up some of our instruments and lead us in song. (tambourine/triangle will suffice!!) The new vicar must be a good preacher, able to deliver engaging and interesting sermons and must be able to speak on many levels to keep the congregation focused on their spiritual growth. It will be important for the vicar to be involved with the pastoral care of both young and old, as well as to be seen out and about in the local community. They need to be a good listener and having a sense of humour is also hugely important. Interest in primary education, and experience in working closely with a local school, are highly desirable. This is an appointment within a team, and will involve taking services and other participation in the work of the other parishes in the benefice. There is a strong feeling within the parish and benefice that members of the team must take their day off each week and take all their holiday entitlement each year to allow them to benefit from a time of relaxation and renewal. This is an attractive, well‐supported and rewarding job. Page | 4 Living God’s Love Our Vision: We fully support the Benefice of Langelei’s mission statement: To bring Christ to the community and the community to Christ. Stemming from this our own mission statement is: To grow in Christian faith, our witness and our service to this community. In five years’ time we want to be described as a friendly, welcoming and generous community who have a vibrant faith that is expressed in serving and supporting our neighbourhood, the Benefice and the town. Our Priorities Our three key priorities for the next five years are: 1. To continue to grow in faith, numbers, witness and service. 2. To offer good quality opportunities for children to develop their faith and sense of belonging. 3. To develop our existing outreach and support to the local and wider community. Our Goals In light of these priorities, our five SMART goals for the next years are: 1. Continue to provide opportunities for faith to grow and develop through a variety of groups and activities. 2. Provide a consistent Junior Church on at least two Sundays per month, more if helpers are available 3. Offer attractive and appropriate activities for our older children; link with Benefice and Diocesan activities. 4. Continue to send anniversary cards to all children baptised at St. Benedict’s in the past three years. 5. Improve communication: a. Address signage at the front of the church b. Design a welcoming and warm logo for the church c. Collect email addresses from baptism families to increase contact opportunities Page | 5 The Benefice (www.beneficeoflangelei.org.uk) The Benefice of Langelei was formed in the autumn of 2009 and was created out of the enlargement of the former Parish of Chambersbury (St Mary's, Apsley End, St Benedict's, Bennetts End and Holy Trinity, Leverstock Green) to include All Saints, Kings Langley. The benefice is multi parish, each church having its own distinctive ethos and each PCC driving mission and ministry across the parish. A Team Council was formed in 2010 with representatives from each parish, the Council's business being matters which the four PCCs delegate to it. Consequently, the Council has assumed responsibility for the administration of certain financial matters that affect all the parishes. The Council has also a communications group which produce the benefice newsletter. There is an openness and willingness to collaborate across the benefice where that seems appropriate and helpful.

  • Urban Nature Conservation Study
    DACORUM BOROUGH COUNCIL URBAN NATURE CONSERVATION STUDY Hertfordshire Biological Records Centre March 2006 DACORUM BOROUGH COUNCIL URBAN NATURE CONSERVATION STUDY Hertfordshire Biological Records Centre March 2006 SUMMARY Purpose of study The environment is one of the four main drivers of sustainable development, and in this context biodiversity needs to be fully integrated into planning policy and delivery. As part of the new planning system known as the Local Development Framework, information on urban wildlife is fundamental given the pressure on land resources in and around our towns. The aims of the study are: ‘To provide a well reasoned and coherent strategy for the protection and enhancement of key wildlife areas and network of spaces / natural corridors within the towns and large villages of Dacorum’. The Dacorum Urban Nature Conservation Study considers the wildlife resources within the six major settlements in Dacorum, namely Berkhamsted, Bovingdon, Hemel Hempstead, Kings Langley, Markyate and Tring. They were mapped using existing habitat information, additional sites identified from aerial photo interpretation and local knowledge. The areas adjacent to each settlement – up to a distance of 1km – were also mapped in a similar fashion to place the urban areas within the context of their surrounding environments. This process identified the most important sites already known such as Sites of Special Scientific Interest, local sites meeting minimum standards known as ‘Wildlife Sites’, and other sites or features of more local significance within the urban areas known collectively as ‘Wildspace’. These incorporated Hertfordshire Biological Record Centre’s ‘Ecology Sites’ where appropriate, old boundary features such as hedgerows and tree lines, as well as significant garden areas or open spaces which may survive.

    1 July 2016 Hertfordshire Public Health Profile Hemel Hempstead and Dacorum Health Needs Assessment FINAL DRAFT Purpose This report provides an overview of the health needs of Hemel Hempstead to help inform the commissioning of health services by NHS Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group. It also gives consideration to the health of the wider Dacorum district for context. This health needs assessment (HNA) is a comparative and epidemiological assessment that has made use of available local health and population data sources. Given the short time frame this HNA has not been able to seek the views of stakeholders (such as professionals, patients, etc.) in its development. Whilst further work needs to be conducted, including stakeholder engagement, this report provides the initial context in which these issues can be explored.

  • Hertfordshire Partners and Dacorum Directory of Homelessness Services
    Hertfordshire Partners and Dacorum Directory of Homelessness Services How it will work This directory of services gives details of Dacorum and, where relevant, Hertfordshire and Nationwide services available to homeless people or those at risk of homelessness. The purpose is to give all partner agencies concerned an up to date guide to the support available. This should allow all of us to signpost clients more easily and accurately. The directory begins with a grid which clusters services under their most prevalent client group, to give you an at-a-glance guide to services which different groups are eligible for. The details of each service provider are listed behind the grid in alphabetical order to make finding out more about a service or contacting them, easier. This directory of services will be at its best if it is kept up to date, and so we must rely on each other to do that; if you notice a mistake or feel a service is missing, please contact me ([email protected]). Updates Prior to the quarterly homelessness forum, Dacorum Borough Council will send a request out to all partners for any updates, changes to services, changes contact details or referral routes. Immediately following the forum the updated directory of services will be re- circulated.
