Club can not respond to all direct questions but will look to do so where possible. 5g. Removal of Betting Company from the ground?

  • Photo Cathryn Bell
    Photo Cathryn Bell Photo Cathryn Bell 2 Welcome to our first edition of 2019; sadly, our break did not include a tour of the Caribbean onboard the company yacht. However, since our relaunch last summer, things have gone well and we are very grateful to all our advertisers and supporters helping us to almost triple our print run. Sincere apologies if you have struggled to get a copy at times but the aim is to increase production. We want to maintain a true community magazine for Idle and Thackley that is content led with local issues foremost, not simply full of adverts; Captain Bill’s yacht will have to wait. Locally, almost the same time that Barclays closed their doors for good, the criminal element nearly blew the doors off the Post Office, taking the cash machine. The damage was horrific and had anybody been on-site the consequences are unimaginable. Sarj and the team would like to express their thanks for the heart- warming support from the local community. The Post Office is all we have now in terms of a local banking provision now so we should value this. Elsewhere, there is plenty going on with a smart conversion to offices of the Idle Coniston building plus plans for a bistro and a micropub in Thackley too. This issue contains all the old favourites plus the story of the Bradford Odeon, a building that defied many who sought to flatten it. Our new What’s On page aims to provide a directory of activities for young and old so help us publicise your activity.

  • Knowing Bradford This Pack Has Been Developed to Support the ‘Knowing Bradford’ Project
    Activity Pack – Knowing Bradford This pack has been developed to support the ‘Knowing Bradford’ project. It will help students to explore the history of Bradford places and people. Introduction The script of people and places in Bradford merely scratches the surface of the city’s past and locations important to its history and heritage. There is a lot more that students could explore. The ideas presented here are examples of follow-up activities that will reinforce learning, understanding, awareness, and develop research, literacy, oracy and presentation skills. They can be mixed and matched depending on student levels. They have been divided into subject areas, although most are related to more than one curriculum area, e.g.: historical research includes reading and concentration skills, and may lead to writing, art, design activities, etc. Maths is also integral to many of the activities. Each scene could be performed individually by students to recap knowledge before choosing follow-up activities related to those scenes. This Activity Pack relates to the Teaching Activity - Knowing Bradford: How can buildings tell a story?
