Acting editor John Townend from the Evening Mail presented the awards to 12 young people. The pupils made scones and biscuits in the morning and in the afternoon took orders from parents and guests for tea/coffee, scones etc and brought it to us. The participants were demonstrating drumming for their skills section. The drum presentation was fantastic - it was drum perfect - not one person drummed at the wrong time and everyone enjoyed it immensely. Furness Youth Project visit Scrutiny Committee Furness Youth project attended Scrutiny Committee on 16 January 2008 Cumbria.gov.uk : Meetings As a group of young people not involved in the survey they were asked to review the Youth Work in Cumbria youth survey. To give them enough time to do this they went on a residential to the YMCA at Lakeside. The young people learned other things at this residential, like how to work as a team and support each other. They had a great time and learned loads. They are very proud of what they achieved and learnt and would like to say thank you for giving them this opportunity. The report they submitted to scrutiny emphasized that they felt it was right that officers and Councillors are listening to young people’s views and giving them the chance to have their say. They thought it was good that Youth Work in Cumbria and the County Council are taking into consideration ‘UN Convention of the Rights of the Child article 12’ which says young people should have a say in what happens when adults are making decisions that affect them.

Cumbria Young Volunteers in Sport The Cumbria Young Volunteers in Sport Programme is aimed at 16-25 year olds interested in volunteering in Sport / Physical Activity. If you can spare some time we can find you a place to volunteer which will benefit you as an individual. Volunteering in Sport / Physical Activity can give you the chance to improve skills, or give you the opportunity to gain experience, which may lead to employment later. Research has shown that 73% of employers would employ candidates with volunteering experience over one who doesn’t. Cumbria Sport Partnership will support you throughout your placement and an officer will contact you regularly to ensure you are getting the most out of your experience. £50 of expenses are available to each volunteer for your own personal development – you may wish to use it towards a level one coaching certificate or an officials qualification. We also have an inclusive volunteer programme, Sports Volunteers Inc, for disabled volunteers. Volunteers can get involved in anything from helping to develop a club website, helping to coach a junior football team to setting up equipment or helping out in the office. For more information on the volunteering opportunities in sport please contact Kate Hansbury, Volunteer Development Officer on 01228 601248, email [email protected] or visit the volunteer section of the Cumbria Sport Partnership website at www.cumbriasport.com . Meet the Team – Julie Andrews Office Manager “Hello, I’m Julie Andrews and I’m the Office Manager in Clint Mill, Penrith. I have responsibility for the administrative staff supporting Youth Work in Cumbria Partnership. I’ve worked for Education Service/Children’s Services for almost 26 years. What an accomplishment! Hobbies: Thinking about taking up something to keep me fit!! Least said about that the better. Watching my daughters play football Greatest Achievement : Without a doubt my two daughters, I’m very proud of them both. First Job : My first job was as a ‘Saturday Girl’ in the local bakers shop. Loved it, very busy on Saturday morning but could sit in the back on the afternoon having a coffee (and the odd cake) with my friend and plan our Saturday night out. Worst Job: Working at Penguin’s Sweet Factory during my Sixth form School Holidays, sugar almonds and orange and lemon slices are a definite ‘no no’ in my house, unbelievable some of the things that happen to them on and off the conveyor belt! Favourite sport : This is a ‘no option’ really. Both my daughters play football for a local club, the eldest also plays for the County Schools and the Cumbria F.A.. Being in 2 different age groups means separate matches, and weekends are pretty full chasing them round the county. Liverpool FC also features high on their list of favourites, we recently surprised them with a visit to Anfield, it was a great day out and Liverpool won!! Favourite Film : Hard one this, I love action and comedy movies. I suppose a really lazy, relaxing afternoon would be watching the Lethal Weapon and Bad Boys movies, both funny but with lots of action. Favourite Music: Music in our home is a bone of contention. I have teenage girls who love the modern stuff! A husband who has the most diverse taste in music ever, loves Pink Floyd, Horslips, even Darts are high on his list and most soul and R&B.

  • A History of the University of Manchester Since 1951
    Pullan2004jkt 10/2/03 2:43 PM Page 1 University ofManchester A history ofthe HIS IS THE SECOND VOLUME of a history of the University of Manchester since 1951. It spans seventeen critical years in T which public funding was contracting, student grants were diminishing, instructions from the government and the University Grants Commission were multiplying, and universities feared for their reputation in the public eye. It provides a frank account of the University’s struggle against these difficulties and its efforts to prove the value of university education to society and the economy. This volume describes and analyses not only academic developments and changes in the structure and finances of the University, but the opinions and social and political lives of the staff and their students as well. It also examines the controversies of the 1970s and 1980s over such issues as feminism, free speech, ethical investment, academic freedom and the quest for efficient management. The author draws on official records, staff and student newspapers, and personal interviews with people who experienced the University in very 1973–90 different ways. With its wide range of academic interests and large student population, the University of Manchester was the biggest unitary university in the country, and its history illustrates the problems faced by almost all British universities. The book will appeal to past and present staff of the University and its alumni, and to anyone interested in the debates surrounding higher with MicheleAbendstern Brian Pullan education in the late twentieth century. A history of the University of Manchester 1951–73 by Brian Pullan with Michele Abendstern is also available from Manchester University Press.

  • The Manchester Esrc Festival of Social Science 2018 Think About the Future…
    3-10 November 2018 THE MANCHESTER ESRC FESTIVAL OF SOCIAL SCIENCE 2018 THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE… 3-10 November 2018 across the UK http://www.esrcmanchesterfest.ac.uk/ #McrESRCFest THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE… On behalf of all the University partners we wish you a warm welcome to the ESRC Manchester Festival of Social Science 2018! The Manchester version of this national festival is now in its fourth year and it’s bigger and better than ever. For 8 days each November our mission is to take over Manchester and Salford’s museums, bars, theatres, classrooms and galleries to present the very latest in social science research. This year our programme features 36 events on a variety of themes including ageing, virtual reality, climate change, the future of work and employment, place making and cities, devolution and…dare we say it…Brexit! We’ve got presentations, workshops, debates, drop-ins, exhibitions, film screenings, club nights, participatory research and story-telling workshops. There’s something for everybody; from sensory workshops aimed at pre-schoolers to bus tours for older adults and everything in between. Every event in our schedule is underpinned by high-quality social science research – much of it funded by the Economic and Social Research Council. We believe that the challenges and opportunities that we are facing in the twenty first century; whether that’s Greater Manchester devolution, Brexit or the perceived lack of trust in “experts”; makes it more important than ever for our research to make meaningful connections with wider society. So yes, we want to use this festival to showcase what we consider to be fantastic research but we also want to get your feedback on this work; we want to hear what you think and we want your help in shaping the research agendas of the future.

As part of our commitment to deliver excellence in education, we are implementing an estate strategy which will create a major new campus at Birley Fields, linked to our existing accommodation at All Saints on Oxford Road.

Our Didsbury assets provide a unique opportunity to meet the City’s need for high quality executive housing, to preserve and enhance important listed buildings, and to deliver new and improved education and community facilities. This Draft Regeneration Framework for our Didsbury property demonstrates how these aims can be delivered. Through the autumn period, we will seek the views of the community and other stakeholders before finalising the Framework. John Brooks Vice Chancellor Manchester Metropolitan University Page 1 All of these sites will be surplus to the requirements of the University and the University is seeking to secure beneficial re-use of the sites.
