    Disability Forum NewsLink April 2013 Here to make Peterborough a more accessible place to live A fond farewell to Gorgeous George! Cllr George Simons time as Mayor of Peterborough comes to an end in May, and what a busy year it has been for Cllr Simons and his wife Sylvia, not least in their fantastic support for people with disabilities in the city. Mayor and Mayoress Simons with members at the Disability Forum Olympic Torch day in July 2012 The Mayors chosen charities for the year were Combat Stress, which assists returning armed forces personnel suffering from mental health conditions, and the Rudolf Fund, which helps seriously ill children, have a Christmas to remember. But Cllr and Mrs Simons support for Peterborough’s disabled residents over the past year has been much more than mere fund raising for two excellent charities. They have brought smiles to the faces of hundreds of local residents, many of them with disabilities or long term health conditions. Bryan Tyler, Disability Forum Manager and Mayors Charity Committee member talked to the Mayor and Mayoress about the highs of the past 12 months. “Bryan, it’s been tremendous. The only downside was meeting you and Cllr John Fox! I’ve aged 20 years! But seriously, both Sylvia and I have had a year we will never forget and getting the opportunity of getting involved with the Disability Forum has been one of the highlights. Mayor and Mayoress with members at the Disability Forum Tea Party in the Town Hall Some of the other highlights in a memorable 12 months for George and Sylvia were meeting six royals in one year! Including Prince Charles, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, The Duke of Gloucester and not to mention lunch with the Queen!

Description of buildings and structures on the Local List 8 10. Glossary of Terms 387 256 Local List of Heritage Assets In Peterborough 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Historic buildings and structures that are nationally important for their architectural or historic interest are statutory listed, and more commonly known as listed buildings. Peterborough has many historic buildings and structures which, although they do not meet the national criteria for listing, are locally distinctive, and make a significant contribution to the historical, architectural and social character of our city. Once lost, they cannot be replaced and therefore should be valued and protected. 1.2 These heritage assets are part of the history of our city or are linked with key people from Peterborough’s past. They may be good examples of a particular local building style, a significant landmark building, or illustrate an important part of our city’s social, cultural or economic history. Additionally these buildings and structures add visual interest to the street scene. What is clear is that they all make a positive contribution to the character of the area, are locally distinctive, valued and contribute to the environmental and cultural heritage of Peterborough. This is why the Council has prepared a Local List of Heritage Assets In Peterborough.
