    SHERIFFS’ & RECORDER’S FUND Annual Report 2018-2019 The Fund was established by the Sheriffs of the City of London in 1808 The Sheriffs’ & Recorder’s Fund In 1808 the two Sheriffs of the City of London set up a fund to help prisoners living in appalling conditions in Newgate, and their families. In 1931 the Fund merged with the fund set up by the Recorder to assist offenders released on probation. The Sheriffs’ & Recorder’s Fund still plays a vital part in preventing re-offending. In prison today: • The prison population has risen by 77% in the last 30 years. England & Wales has the highest imprisonment rate in Western Europe. • Assault rates among children in custody average 228 assaults a month. • 43% of prisons received a negative rating from inspectors in 2017-18 for purposeful activity work. In many prisons work remains mundane, repetitive and rarely linked to resettlement objectives. • 54% of those entering prison were assessed as having literacy skills expected of an 11-year-old (general population: 15%). • The number of women in prison has doubled since 1993. On release: • On release prisoners receive £46 – a sum unchanged since 1997 (with inflation, the equivalent today is £82.34). • 50% of respondents to a 2016 YouGov survey said they would not consider employing an offender or ex-offender • 48% of adults are reconvicted within one year of release (64% of those serving sentences of less than 12 months). Working in an office in the Old Bailey provided by the Corporation of London, the Fund gives small grants to ex-prisoners and their families in Greater London to buy essentials: clothes for a job interview, a training course, tools of trade, household equipment.

It examines a variety of primary sources documenting the laws, punishments, and regulations concerning sexual commerce and reaches conclusions about the marginalization of prostitutes and the diverging systems of prostitution control implemented in the City of London and the Bishop of Winchester’s manor in Southwark. First, women, especially prostitutes, were marginalized in medieval English society. The prostitutes' inability to play an active role in either the secular or religious life of English communities cemented their position as outsiders.

  • Women in the Livery High Civic Office in the City
    Women in the Livery and High Civic Office in the City City of London Women in the Livery and High Civic Office in the City including Lady Masters Association and City Consorts A Research Paper by Erica Stary, LLM, FTII, ATT, TEP Past Master Tax Adviser, Past Master Plumber and Upper Warden Elect Tin Plate Workers alias Wire Workers © Erica Stary January 2021 Women in the Livery and High Civic Office in the City FOREWORD It’s a privilege to be asked to write the foreword for this new paper on Women in the Civic City and Livery. What started as a short research project in lockdown on the Lady Masters Association has turned into a comprehensive and informative paper on how the role of women in City Civic life has evolved since the Middle Ages. It’s easy to forget how quickly the livery has changed in this regard. In 1983, when the first female Lord Mayor, Dame Mary Donaldson was elected, more than half of the livery companies were not open to women on equal terms as men. At the turn of the millennium, more than a quarter still did not allow equal admittance. Now, at long last, in 2020, all City livery companies and guilds accept women on equal terms with men, making this a timely moment for this research paper to be published. As the paper reminds us, women have had a long and significant impact in civic and livery life in the last thousand years. Many Medieval guilds were reliant on the skilled work of women and many buildings only came into the possession of the Livery or the City Corporation, such as the former Bricklayers Hall or Columbia Market, through acquisitions and donations from women.

  • 8 Government in Early Modern London: the Challenge of the Suburbs
    8 Government in Early Modern London: The Challenge of the Suburbs IAN W. ARCHER I TO JUDGE FROM THE CONTENT OF RECENT LITERATURE on the government of early modern London, an exercise in word association among historians would probably produce the result ‘Government of London: Stability’. The key components of the explanation for the fundamental orderliness of the capital are (with varying degrees of emphasis among the contributors to the debate): the concentration of central authority in a unitary monied élite combined with dispersal of power among local units of parishes, wards and guilds, high levels of participation in local and guild gov- ernment, a fruitful symbiotic relationship with the Crown, and the elaboration of sophisticated social policies to tackle the capital’s problems.1 A major problem with the emerging consensus, however, is that it rests overwhelmingly on evidence drawn from the area under the jurisdiction of the lord mayor and aldermen of London, and much of it is elusive about what it means by ‘London’. As the metropolitan area expanded, the proportion of its population subjected to the authority of the city authorities declined dramatically. Whereas about three-quarters of the population of the metropolitan area in 1560 resided in the city, by 1700 the proportion was only one-quarter.2 1 V.

Yet 83% committed a non-violent offence. • Self-inflicted deaths are 8.6 times more likely in prison than in the general population. • 34% of prisoners have the literacy ability, and 51% the numeracy ability, expected of a nine-year-old. • 64% of prisoners have used Class A drugs and 65% have mental health issues. • In most prisons, people spend only thirty minutes outside each day. On release: • On release prisoners receive £46 – a sum unchanged since 1997 (with inflation, the equivalent today is £82.34). • 36% of released prisoners have no confirmed accommodation to go to. • 43% of released prisoners are re-convicted within a year.

  • Taking Liberties
    Early Theatre 9.1 Matt Kozusko Taking Liberties In her recent study of Elizabethan and Jacobean drama, Theatre, Court and City, 1595–1610, Janette Dillon remarks on a kind of complacency in the view ‘modern critics’ continue to espouse of London’s best-known public amphi- theatres: ‘the Bankside theatres are frequently described by modern critics as being outside the city boundary because they were across the river in South- wark, but this is incorrect. It was because they were located within the liberties of Paris Garden and the Clink in Southwark that they were outside city jurisdiction’.1 The difference between ‘across the river’ and ‘in the liberties of Paris Garden and the Clink’ is a simple matter on the surface level, and the misunderstanding is easily cleared up by a quick survey of the jurisdictional areas into which Southwark was divided. But the mistake is symptomatic of a much broader and more significant set of conceptual indiscretions on the part of contemporary literary critical approaches to early modern drama. Other missteps attendant on this idea – that the Bankside theatres were, in fact, outside of city jurisdiction, or that the Bankside was a ‘suburb’ of license and sin – are more difficult to set straight. Indeed, Dillon’s correction itself needs revising. The Liberty of the Clink and Paris Garden were, as she notes, outside of London’s twenty-six wards, but as David Johnson demonstrates in his study Southwark and the City, jurisdiction in Southwark is an especially complicated matter,2 and the flat insistence that the Bankside theatres, or their peers in to the north, were untouchable by the lord mayor, the court of aldermen, or other manifestations of city authority, must be reconsidered.

    Letter from the President. It was a great shock to us all to hear about the fatal car accident to Howard and Shirley Crapper. They are both well known to FEW members and have attended many AGMs. Howard has represented Oxford for many years and is our Warden for the West. Over the past two weeks I have heard many stories of how Shirley befriended and helped members and their families. She will be sadly missed by many. I am glad to say Howard is being allowed home from hospital although he still has to have some surgery. Our thoughts and prayers go to Howard and their family. This newsletter will include the application form for the 2018 AGM in Warwick. This is in a central location for many of our member Guilds and thus many will not require a lot of travel. I have been to Warwick and been through the arrangements with the representative of the Warwick Court Leet. It promises to be another good weekend for all who can attend. I would certainly recommend all who can to come to join us from 21st to 23rd September. The interpretation of the new Data Protection regulations which come into force in May have been considered at length. Your Executive believes we have come up with modest regulations which comply with the requirements. We are grateful for CharlotteYeates for taking on the additional post of Data Protection Regulator. Member Guilds will have received the first correspondence regarding the Archives project. I would encourage all Guilds to join in this work.

    Presidents Letter. Dear Members. I have now completed my first full year as your President and the time has really gone quickly. I am please to say that everything is going well. The membership is once again increasing not only with the full Individual Members but also the Associate Membership, we have also gained one new Associate Guild Member with the possibility of another one in the pipeline. Members residing in other Guild areas are asking if they can be involved with those Guilds where they reside. More members are attending social functions in support of their Guilds and even supporting other Guilds. I see that more members in the Guilds are coming forward to join their own courts, especially the ladies. I would ask from this that Members of FEW give serious thought to taking on a role on the Executive Committee of FEW. We are all getting older and a bit long in the tooth and we are looking for members to put themselves forward to take our places. We have people on the Executive doing two jobs to keep things going and this is not a good position to be in We need ensure the future of the Freedom for the generations to come. We really need to think seriously now about it not when it becomes desperate. I spoke last time of tapping into other organizational skills and knowledge especially in the advertising field. I have actually been putting out some ideas to a museum and they are interested in putting on a display for us and they will do this for free for about six weeks, in fact they said that if we make it interesting enough they would probably put some money into it by supplying larger display posters etc and possibly keep it longer.
