Executive Summary of Library and One Stop Shop Service Consultation Report Background
Executive summary of Library and one stop shop service consultation report Background Cornwall Council, like other local authorities, has to find substantial budget savings and further Government funding cuts have resulted in a required saving of £1.8 million from the Libraries and One Stop Shop £4m budget. Cornwall Council consulted, between 1 April and 10 June 2015, with stakeholders and the public on their views for how the future Library and One Stop Shop service could be delivered in the face of budget savings equating to approximately 40% over the next two years. The consultation and engagement programme aimed to provide the opportunity for everyone to comment on options and voice their concerns, views and ideas for future delivery of library and one stop shop services. The consultation responses have informed the recommendation for a preferred option for the running of library and one stop shop services. Two service models were outlined for consultees to consider and everyone was also encouraged to propose other models of service delivery identified within the report as model X. Model A: Transfer or ‘devolve’ the operation of libraries to other interested parties e.g. to a Town/Parish Council or community organisation Model B: Alternative whole service model e.g. transfer the operation of libraries to a trust, commercial organisation, or social enterprise, or through outsourcing A business case form was available on the Councils website and in hard copy for those groups and organisations interested in devolved service delivery models (Model A). A soft market test was undertaken and a notice was published on tendersincornwall.co.uk and Contracts Finder for companies or groups interested in the delivery of a whole service model (Model B). -

ANNUAL REVIEW 2015/2016 Gwytha Ha Crefhe! 30 Years Preserving and Strengthening Our Cornish Heritage
ANNUAL REVIEW 2015/2016 Gwytha ha Crefhe! 30 years preserving and strengthening our Cornish heritage In the early 1980’s there was a growing concern that too much of the Cornish heritage was under threat from potential private buyers. Two such sites were Land’s End and Lamorna Cove and there was no organisation in Cornwall with the ability to raise the funds required to save the sites. On the 19th February 1983 a group of people got together with the idea of forming such an organisation with the aim of saving buildings, ancient artifacts and important heritage sites. It was the irst of regular meetings, held at the Royal Hotel in Truro, and the Oficers elected were Acting Chairman The Honourable Robert Eliot, Acting Vice Chairman Mrs June Lander, Secretary Mr John Menhinick, Assistant Secretary Mr Jack Spry and the Treasurer Mr Tim Le Grice. At the meeting it was unanimously agreed that Mr Kenneth Kendall be elected as the irst Patron. Subsequent meetings eventually resulted in the Our Education portfolio includes projects with Primary appointments of The Honourable Robert Eliot as Chairman schools and the funding of transport for class visits to with Mrs Moira Tangye as Vice Chairman, The Hon. Treasurer heritage sites which many schools are taking advantage of Mr Carl Roberts and The Hon. Secretary Mr John Menhinick. due to the dificulty of funding in this area. Mr Jack Spry became the Membership Secretary and a We award bursaries to post graduate students who are solicitor, Mr Robin Bailey, was also appointed. So on the studying Cornish history, and in this we work very closely with 2nd April 1985 the Cornwall Heritage Trust came into being, the Institute of Cornish Studies and Exeter University. -
September 2014
September 2014 Dear Parent/Carer, Having now had two complete weeks of the school year, 2014-15, for all students at saltash.net, I am very pleased to be able to write to you and report that we have had an extremely positive start to the term. Not only have we welcomed all of our new Year 7 students to our school, we have also been pleased to receive 14 new students into Years 8, 9 and 10, as well as students from our own and other schools who have joined our excellent Sixth Form learning community, taking the total number of post 16 students to 214. If you are a new parent or carer to our school, then we say a special word of welcome to you. There will be many opportunities throughout the school year for you to get to know the staff and students at our school and we hope you will soon feel an established part of our whole school community. One of the first things I need to share with you in this newsletter is to do with school communication and the changes which have taken place to upgrade our ICT facilities. Our move to ‘Office 365’ and ‘The Cloud’ has meant a change to all staff email addresses. They now all follow the same pattern, which is a member of staff’s first name initial, followed by their surname and then @saltashcloud.net—so my address is [email protected] and my deputies are [email protected] (Mr Dan Buckley), [email protected] (Mrs Linda Griffin), and [email protected] (Mr Nick Scantlebury). -
Interim Newsletter – May
24th May 2016 Dear Parents/Carers, As we approach the half term break, I am pleased to be able to write to you to bring you up to date with all that has been happening at saltash.net since the start of the summer term. Exam season is, of course, well and truly upon us now, with years 10, 11 and 12 all taking some of their GCSE and A Level examinations before half term and Year 13 joining them from the start of June onwards. Although we hold ‘official last day’ events for both Years 11 and 13, all students sitting exams are still able to participate in and make the most of our extensive revision programme which will be running throughout the duration of the exams as well as over the half term holiday. We have all been so impressed with how our young people have approached their exams this summer, especially those students who have experienced major challenges and difficulties in their home or personal lives over the past year. We are full of admiration for them and also pleased that our school has such a strong pastoral support network in place to help guide and intervene when necessary. We wish all students sitting exams this year all the very best. As we regularly say to our students, academic success is very important but so too is how they are developing as well rounded individuals who appreciate and demonstrate the values at the heart of our school: Respect, Responsibility, Compassion, Honesty, Fairness and Perseverance. At the recent May Fair in Saltash, a number of members of our local community (including those who live close to our school) came up to tell me how impressed they were with the behaviour and conduct of our students – not just what they read about them in the local papers, but also when they see them around Saltash. -

Laundry Life+Times Last.Pages
The Life and Times of the Laundrys' * The Name Laundry has always seemed such a down to earth and functional name. I had thought that it denoted a family trade, much in the same way that Smith does, though there were family rumours that it was Spanish or French, and spoken with an accent it does sound a bit more romantic. Researching in the 'Partonymica Cornu-Britannica' of 1870 (the origin of Cornish names) it appears that someone has already given the name much thought. "Landrey, Landry. From Lan- dre, (Cornish) the church dwelling: lan-drea, the principal church; or Lan-dreath, -dreathe, the church on the sand or sandy shore. Hence perhaps Landary and Laundry." Another book on Cornish names has the name meaning 'Gods enclosure of oak trees'. A Canadian researcher, Marcel Landry (http://www.mwlandry.ca/angleterre.htm) has it that the name derives from old French 'Landri' through old German 'Landric(us)' meaning 'land ruler', the name brought over by a Breton Frenchman Stephan Landry who landed in Cornwall in 1561, he married locally and his descendants lived in the East Cornwall region though most seem to be called Landry. This version is supported by Ancestry.com who state that in middle English it was ‘Lavendrie’ from the old French Landri, from Germanic meaning ‘land’ and ‘power’. However there is nothing to say that it cannot be both that is an existing name from Cornish and derived from an imported French name. It has helped that Laundry is such an unusual name. During the mid 1800s most Laundrys, and there were only a hand full, lived in Cornwall with a few in Devon. -
Georesources Cornwall Working Paper
VERSION 15 August 2019 WORKING PAPER Version 10 October 2019 Georesources Cornwall Recommendations for development of the Georesources sector in Cornwall 1 VERSION 15 August 2019 REMIX project The aim of this Georesources Cornwall document is to advise Cornwall Council and Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership on the mining and related opportunities in Cornwall and how best they might be encouraged and facilitated. It is an output of the REMIX project. REMIX was funded by Interreg Europe to encourage resource efficient and environmentally and socially acceptable production of raw materials by working with regional policy instruments. It brought together partners and stakeholders across nine European regions, at different stages of the mining cycle, to share knowledge and develop best practice guidelines. Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter was the partner for the region. In Cornwall we brought together stakeholders, especially Cornwall Council and the companies in the Cornwall Mining Alliance for workshops on specific topics and facilitated travel to European partners to a series of peer review meetings to learn from their activities and experience. A peer review visit of European partners to Cornwall was held in May 2018. Various interviews were also held with individual businesses. Expertise external to the university was used to help compile information, especially on mineral rights, mine water geothermal energy, the Cornwall Mining Alliance business cluster and potential economic development through growth of this sector. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents Summary recommendations 1.
