    Local Development Framework Core Strategy ADOPTED DECEMBER 2009 Maps included in this document © Crown copyright. All rights reserved Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council LA100018489 Published 2008 Aerial Photographs Copyright GeoPerspectives. Supplied by Bluesky International Ltd. Foreword As the Executive Member with responsibilities for Regeneration and Planning for Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council I am proud to announce the adoption of the council’s Core Strategy Development Plan Document. The adoption of this Document is the result of more than 5 years of work, which began with a series of workshops around the borough to help the council to understand what local communities value about their local environment and what issues communities face over the next 20 years. The Document is the frst of its kind to be produced by a single council in the whole of the East Midlands. It provides this council with an up to date planning policy framework upon which to assess the merits of future planning application submissions. Further, it provides more certainty in helping the council to meet its future development requirements up to 2026. The Core Strategy is the key strategic document in the suite of documents to be produced as part of the Local Development Framework for the borough. It provides a steer on the level and direction of future housing and employment growth, it also sets out policies aimed to improve the environment and the range of facilities in the urban areas as well as the rural settlements of the borough. Importantly the Document seeks to ensure the necessary physical, social and green infrastructure is put in place to allow the strategy to be successfully delivered.

Benefits include a healthier, more productive workforce, cost savings to staff, reduced demand for on-site parking and less congestion locally. A travel plan is a “live” on-going document, and as such are continually reviewed and updated.

  • THE EMERGENCE and FUNCTIONING of DISTRICT RELIEF COMMITTEES DURING the FIRST WORLD WAR: a CASE STUDY of HINCKLEY, LEICESTERSHIRE John Martin and Robert King
    THE EMERGENCE AND FUNCTIONING OF DISTRICT RELIEF COMMITTEES DURING THE FIRST WORLD WAR: A CASE STUDY OF HINCKLEY, LEICESTERSHIRE John Martin and Robert King Very little is known about the operation of the District Relief Committee (DRC) and the role it played during the First World War. This article undertakes a pioneering investigation into its significance by means of a case study of the DRC as it operated in the town of Hinckley, Leicestershire, and which demonstrated the unsung role that the organisation played in mobilising and coordinating the war effort at a local level. An important discovery was that over time the committee evolved from a charitable organisation, run by local dignitaries and personalities, from the onset of the war to, by 1916, a professionally operated de facto local government department. The effect of this largely unknown network, which has merited scant attention from historians, was to enable the government both rapidly to acquire and disseminate local information vital to the war effort, with the provision of aniline dyes being one such example. INTRODUCTION The District Relief Committee (DRC) system was established to implement charitable relief and commercial requirements at both national and local levels, but has largely been ignored by current historians. For example, Wilson, when referring to the reception of Belgian refugees into Britain, writes that ‘…other organizations arranged financial assistance for the dependents of servicemen’, but does not say what form that assistance took.1 Marwick notes that the early months of the war saw a ‘flowering of grand-scale private charity’,2 but, like Wilson, makes no mention of its implementation, or to whom the charitable activity was directed.
