As you will see from the pages that follow this was a particularly exciting and eventful year for the Institute. One problem when producing an Annual Review is deciding what to include and what to leave out. This year has been no exception. In common with all other higher education institutions, many developments take a number of years to come to fruition as associated activities are spread across a number of years. Consequently, we have been a little flexible with the timescale for this Review and have included an update for events following August 2006 where appropriate. You will also notice that this year the Review follows the five aspects of the Institute’s vision. It also provides reports on the Institute’s progress against key performance indicators and contains reports on the Institute’s sustainability performance and progress against the Institute’s Welsh language scheme. Corporate governance and financial statements are also included. Trefor Jones CBE Chairman of NEWI’s The stories and statistics provided in this Review pay Board of Governors testament to the tremendous work undertaken by all the staff and students of the Institute.

NEWI had a 28% increase in its student broad range of areas. It saw a growth in NEWI’s student numbers numbers in 2005 many of these students coming from both at the Institute itself and in our collaborative partners; a backgrounds where there is no history of higher education. At the developing research base, increased third mission activities and same time NEWI has been reaching out to businesses with its a higher international reputation. This was supplemented by graduate and student work placement schemes, its organising of continuing improvements to the Institute’s estates and further key business events and its support for graduate start-up high profile visits. companies. The NEWI Innovation Centre, which houses start-up businesses, has been full to capacity almost since it opened and The Institute spent much of the year under scrutiny; a challenge now has a waiting list for potential tenants. which all members of the Institute took seriously. The pathway towards obtaining taught degree awarding powers is always long Research has been taking on an international footing this year and arduous.

Strategic Plan, to Governors and the Welsh Language Board through annual reports and to the general public through the Institute’s Annual Review. 2 The North East Wales Institute of Higher Education Introduction by Professor Michael Scott Principal and Chief Executive The Institute continues to provide an important gateway into higher education for many from a socially excluded background. Its student profile differs significantly from traditional universities. 70% of its students come from families with incomes of £17,000 or less. 12% of the full-time student population is in receipt of the Disabled Students Allowance, compared to a UK average of 4% and a Welsh average of 5%. Yet against this background over 90% of the Institute’s full-time students are in meaningful employment within six months of graduating from NEWI. The Institute was also able to ensure that the number of students on NEWI programmes and number of credits including franchise partners rose to record levels. The year also saw recognition of the Institute’s research and scholarship and its market based nature. In a league table of institutions in Wales whose work is cited by other academics NEWI came second only to Cardiff University. Throughout 2005/6 there was a range of initiatives and developments which continue to demonstrate NEWI’s proactive approach to learning and teaching. NEWI had three projects accepted by the Change Academy and two development projects with the Leadership Foundation for Higher Education (LFHE). In June 2006 the Institute was awarded a LFHE Fellowship. In order to enhance learning and teaching excellence and promote best practice the Institute introduced its own Fellowship scheme in 2006.

  • Hi, Bill, Managed to Open the Archbishop Michael Obit
    The Most Reverend Peter David Gregory Smith 21st October 1943 – 6th March 2020 Archbishop Emeritus of Southwark “Love if the fullness of the law” Archbishop Emeritus Peter Smith was down-to-earth, a gentle Canon Lawyer and later a gentle bishop, who always wanted to be a Parish Priest but the Holy Spirit had other plans. Born in Battersea on October 21st 1943, son of Cuthbert and Kathleen Smith, and he grew up in south-west London. He had one brother, James, and no sisters. He attend the local Catholic primary school before going on to Clapham College, a Catholic Secondary School in the area. Having completed his A Levels he considered the world of work. Having seen a vacancy in the local press he asked his father who Coutts and Co are; “the Queen’s bankers boy” was the reply – the young Peter thought to himself “that will do for me”. After a few years his mind turned to considering University. Coutts were very supportive when he told them that he was considering a Law degree and they assured him that he would be welcome back if he wished once he graduated. So Mr Smith headed off to Exeter University and in 1966 gained his degree (LLB). While at Exeter the call of a priestly vocation began to stir in his mind and the University priest Chaplain was very encouraging, “I always thought you would make a good priest”; the head of faculty was less impressed as he thought Peter would have had a good career in the Law.

  • CATHOLIC BISHOPS' CONFERENCE Senedd Reception, Assembly Of
    CATHOLIC BISHOPS’ CONFERENCE Senedd Reception, Assembly of Wales Mt Rev George Stack, Archbishop of Cardiff senedd, assembly for wales, tuesday, 7 may 2013 Words of welcome and introduction spoken by the Most Revd George Stack, Archbishop of Cardiff, at the Reception hosted by the Catholic Church in Wales for members of the National Assembly for Wales at the Senedd on 7 May 2013. On behalf of my colleagues Bishop Thomas Burns of Menevia and Bishop Peter Brignall of Wrexham, and of the whole Catholic community here in Wales, I would like to thank the Deputy Presiding Officer of the Assembly, David Melding, for sponsoring this event. Thank you also to the many Assembly members and staff for joining us today. Public Service is at the heart of the life of a civilised society. It is good to have opportunities to celebrate and thank those people who commit themselves in such a wholehearted way to the Common Good. I love the phrase which says “There are no such people as strangers. Only friends who have not yet met”. And that has certainly been my experience since coming to Wales. The experience too of the relationship between the Catholic Church and the Welsh Assembly. Everywhere you go in the principality you will find Catholic Dioceses and parishes reaching out into to the wider community in partnership with statutory and voluntary organisations. More than thirty thousand Catholics go to church every Sunday. They are an enormous resource of care and compassion. That is just one reason why we have been able to give £20,000 over two years to set up and be part of the foundation of Cardiff Citizens UK.

  • Proposals for Legislation on Organ and Tissue Donation: a Welsh Government White Paper
    Health and Social Care Committee Human Transplantation (Wales) Bill HT(Org)30 – Anscombe Bioethics Centre (Annexe) Proposals for Legislation on Organ and Tissue Donation: A Welsh Government White Paper A joint response on behalf of The Roman Catholic Church in Wales, The Church in Wales, and the Wales Orthodox Mission Summary 1. This response primarily addresses the proposals in the White Paper at the level of principle. It is based on the conviction that organ donation is a profoundly Christian positive act. Our main concern is that the positive ethos of donation as a free gift is being endangered by an ill-judged if well-intentioned proposal to move from voluntary donation to presumed consent. However, if organs may be taken without consent, this is no longer “donation”. This is not just a health matter but concerns serious human rights issues such as personal autonomy, as well as questions about the relationship of the state and the citizen. At the same time the belief that presumed consent would itself increase the number of organs available for transplantation is not supported by the available evidence, as is shown below (paragraphs 16 – 25). Organ transplantation enjoys a high level of public support but it also involves the sensitive issue of respect for the human body after death, people’s human right to privacy and respect for personal beliefs and religion. These are areas that need to be negotiated with care and, as far as possible, by consensus legislation. We therefore urge the Welsh Government to revisit the process and establish a cross party committee that could consider all the evidence submitted to the previous enquiries of the last three years: the Organ Donation Task Force, the Welsh Assembly Committee, the U.K.
