The aim of the Wakefield and District Housing Homesearch Lettings Scheme is to offer our customers choice in meeting their housing requirements, while recognising that for some properties preference will be given to certain groups to ensure that best use is made of the social housing. Wakefield and District Housing will ensure that the housing stock is utilised in the most effective way, so as to meet the needs of the whole community, including those who are most vulnerable or are at risk of social exclusion. In order to allocate empty homes in a way that offers choice, meets people needs, and promotes the development of sustainable and balanced communities WDH will operate localised policies. These policies will ensure that we are able to develop communities in which people choose to live. The Local Lettings Strategy will: • Be fair, none discriminatory and meet the requirements of Regulatory Codes. • Not disrupt the organisations ability to meet the housing needs of the district. • Take account of the differing types of accommodation available within each area. • Take account of Wakefield and District Housings charitable objectives. • Ensure that best use is made of the housing stock. The localised letting policies will enable WDH to ensure that the estates are managed more effectively and we can develop an area with a well-balanced social mix. We will also be able to provide support to vulnerable tenants in order to ensure that their tenancies are successful and they quickly become integrated into the community. The policies will also encompass our ability to target estate management, Policing, and partners’ resources in a much more comprehensive way. By introducing and effectively managing these policies we will be creating a cohesive community, which will, in turn, reduce anti social behaviour and deprivation. delivering promises, improving lives Bedroom Standard When assessing a property to see if it is a suitable size for a member of Homesearch the Bedroom Standard will be applied. No offers of accommodation will be made where the family size exceeds the Bedroom standard when applied to a property. The Bedroom Standard is based on the ages and composition of the family. A notional number of bedrooms is allocated to each household in accordance with its composition by age, sex and marital status and relationships of family members. A separate bedroom is allocated to each of the following. • Married or cohabiting couple. • Adult aged 21 years or more, • Pair of adolescents aged 10 to 20 years of the same sex. • Pair of children aged under 10 years regardless of sex Any unpaired person aged 10 to 20 years is paired, if possible, with a child aged under 10 years of the same sex or, if that is not possible given a separate bedroom. The same applies to any unpaired child aged under 10 years. This standard is then compared with the number of bedrooms available for the sole use of the household. Definition of a bedroom For the purposes of measuring overcrowding it is important that the following definition of bedroom is used. • Any room that, when built, was intended to be a bedroom is included even if it is not used as such at present and even if it does not have a bed in it. It must have a window. Bedrooms converted to other uses are included unless it has been converted for medical equipment / care; bedrooms not in use are included unless they are uninhabitable. • There must be at least one bedroom. Bedsitters, box rooms and attic bedrooms are included. • Living or parlour rooms or other areas of the house / flat that are used for sleeping, are not included unless they have been adapted to be used as a bedroom. • A simple check is, if the accommodation were put up for sale, how many bedrooms would the owner claim it had? delivering promises, improving lives Chain Lettings All advertised properties made available as a result of an under occupying WDH tenant being rehoused will be preferenced to WDH tenants who have been awarded priority for overcrowding or under occupation. Definition of ‘underoccupying WDH tenant’ ‘underoccupying WDH tenants’ means Homesearch members who have been given Band A or B ‘Under Occupation’. Please refer to the Choice Based Lettings Policy for an explanation of when these Bands are awarded. Advertising Vacancies will initially be advertised in accordance with the following preference policies. However if this does not result in an appropriate allocation the vacancy may then be allocated/advertised as deemed appropriate by the Area Housing Manager in conjunction with the LMC chair. Health and Safety Due to fire risk - WDH will operate a zero tolerance policy to mobility scooters in common areas of low or high rise blocks of flats. No mobility scooters will be allowed to be stored in these blocks. Please contact your local area housing office for more details. delivering promises, improving lives Lettings Preference Policy Properties All Expressions of interest are welcome from with 2 or more those requiring the adaptations and adaptations facilities specific to this property and applicants who meet the criteria set out in the individual local lettings policy.

  • Wrenthorpe Matters Nov 2020
    WRENTHORPE COMMUNITY ASSOC. WRENTHORPE MATTERS Issue No. 3/2020 November 2020 Welcome: to the Latest Edition of Wrenthorpe Matters. Produced by Wrenthorpe Community Association to help keep you up-to-date with village news; it would normally be delivered by our fantastic team of volunteers to every home in Wrenthorpe – over 3,500 copies – but due to these unprecedented times we are “delivering it to you online” where you will have the option to download and/or print. COVID 19 PANDEMIC Firstly we would like to offer our condolences to anyone who has lost a loved one to Covid 19, or any other illness, since March. We, the Wrenthorpe Community Assoc. were very saddened by the loss of a valued trustee, David Arthur, who sadly passed away from this awful disease in April at the age of 81. David was a member of the WCA for many years and his life experiences – an active member of the Unitarian Church, the Liberal Democrats, several choirs, and his work with many charities - enabled him to give us invaluable advice and help over the years. RIP David. VILLAGE HALL AND VALLEY CRESCENT CENTRE Once the local Food Bank moved out of the Village Hall at the end of August a special deep clean was done, and a small Working Party began the task of preparing both venues for safely re-opening. By mid-September both were ‘Covid-Secure’ for the return of our regular users. Due to local Covid alerts from mid-October, and, of course the second National Lockdown, very little progress has been made on resuming former activities but we are pleased that our premises are ready once Government guidance allows.

  • Popular Political Oratory and Itinerant Lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the Age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa M
    Popular political oratory and itinerant lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa Martin This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of York Department of History January 2010 ABSTRACT Itinerant lecturers declaiming upon free trade, Chartism, temperance, or anti- slavery could be heard in market places and halls across the country during the years 1837- 60. The power of the spoken word was such that all major pressure groups employed lecturers and sent them on extensive tours. Print historians tend to overplay the importance of newspapers and tracts in disseminating political ideas and forming public opinion. This thesis demonstrates the importance of older, traditional forms of communication. Inert printed pages were no match for charismatic oratory. Combining personal magnetism, drama and immediacy, the itinerant lecturer was the most effective medium through which to reach those with limited access to books, newspapers or national political culture. Orators crucially united their dispersed audiences in national struggles for reform, fomenting discussion and coalescing political opinion, while railways, the telegraph and expanding press reportage allowed speakers and their arguments to circulate rapidly. Understanding of political oratory and public meetings has been skewed by over- emphasis upon the hustings and high-profile politicians. This has generated two misconceptions: that political meetings were generally rowdy and that a golden age of political oratory was secured only through Gladstone’s legendary stumping tours. However, this thesis argues that, far from being disorderly, public meetings were carefully regulated and controlled offering disenfranchised males a genuine democratic space for political discussion.
