Welcome to Blantyre House Induction Booklet Induction Information Booklet – HMP Blantyre House UNCLASSIFIED WELCOME TO BLANTYRE HOUSE INDUCTION BOOKLET Pages marked with this symbol (6,36,37 & 38) need to be completed and returned UNCLASSIFIED Page 1 of 46 Induction Information Booklet – HMP Blantyre House UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED Page 2 of 46 Induction Information Booklet – HMP Blantyre House UNCLASSIFIED GOVERNOR’S MESSAGE Welcome to Blantyre House The establishment‟s motto is “enabling resettlement”, and my personal motto is “making a difference”. Combining these not only makes sense but, provides an excellent platform for staff and prisoners to build upon. You will have noted from your first reception that Blantyre is unlike any other establishment you will have been to. The environment is relaxed, supportive and totally focused upon resettlement. Blantyre and its extremely positive professional staff, will help you re-establish or build upon existing family ties, resolve personal conflict, provide confidence and support via education, training and employment, treating you with dignity and respect at all times. We have a personal officer scheme that will support you throughout your stay here. On leaving us you will be ready to rejoin society well equipped and with your head held high. There are of course expectations from you that you will comply with the decency agenda and all matters that come under the heading of diversity. You should engage fully with all services and give 100% in respect of your work ethic, educational application and in supporting your peers. The staff at Blantyre will demand very little of you as you are empowered as a responsible adult to facilitate changes in your life style rather than be told to do so. There are very few strict rules and the language is user-friendly in aiding the process of rehabilitation. For example, you will have a room not a cell, you will have free access for the majority of the core day to all activities, facilities and outside areas and will be able to associate and dine in communal areas which will develop the true community spirit that is “all things Blantyre”. You will also note a creative programme of activity and some unusual events that you may not have experienced in custody. These include local history nights, talks from ex Blantyre men, staff and prisoner quiz nights, prisoner and staff sports teams and events and opportunities to engage with art, music and presentation skills. Of course there are rules, or should I say expectations regarding behaviour, as there are in the community at large. You should expect to lose your valuable placement at Blantyre if you breach any of the following: . Alcohol or Drug offences . Licence breaches . Acts of violence . Diversity – inappropriate language or behaviour There are opportunities to address all aspects of your life style from health and fitness to behavioural attitudes, I therefore encourage you to engage and embrace these aspects of Blantyre as you are unlikely to be offered such a life-changing opportunity anywhere else. Your place here is a truly valuable one and I encourage you to make the most of it. Blantyre House will afford you the opportunity to repay the debts you owe to society, all the staff who invest in you, your family and loved ones and most importantly yourself. In conclusion I once again welcome you to an establishment that enables resettlement and can help you make a difference. I wish you every success. JIM CARMICHAEL UNCLASSIFIED Page 3 of 46 Induction Information Booklet – HMP Blantyre House UNCLASSIFIED CANTEEN This is via DHL and is on an ordering system. Each Friday every offender will be issued with a canteen list which must be completed and returned to the House Office by Sunday 20:00 Hours. Orders will then be processed and ready for collection on a Wednesday between 18:00-19:00 from Visits. Any canteen not collected due to an offender not being in the prison, will be held in reception, once the Reception Officer has verified the bag is sealed. When you return to the prison you will be asked to check the contents of the sealed bag with the Reception officer and any discrepancies will be recorded on a form, which the Officer will hand to DHL on their next visit.

On hearing the fire alarm sound for a continuous period (longer than 30 seconds) all prisoners and staff must evacuate the building. 2. All prisoners will report to the Gymnasium where a roll check will be taken 3. On no account will any prisoner be allowed to return to the house building until authorised by the Orderly Officer.

Any sounding for longer than 30 seconds denotes a „Live‟ event and evacuation procedures must be followed. After a short period the sounder will be silenced, this DOES NOT mean that the evacuation is over or that the event is a false alarm, prisoners will continue to, and remain at the gymnasium until authorised to return.

Signature Date UNCLASSIFIED Page 7 of 46 Induction Information Booklet – HMP Blantyre House UNCLASSIFIED FIRST IMPRESSIONS The following short stories are written by prisoners, (who would like to remain anonymous), about his first impressions of Blantyre House. Our thanks go out to them for their kind contribution. COMING INTO BLANTYRE When I came to Blantyre House it was quite a shock. Once you have been given your welcome pack and shown your room, the mad rush starts, trying to find out the rules, see who you have to see and find your way around the place. It‟s really odd at first, mainly because there is much more freedom and a relaxed manner about the place; I became a bit withdrawn at first because of not knowing what you can or cannot do. I think this was mainly because even after a few hours at Blantyre I didn‟t want to be moved on anywhere else. As time moves on, the daily routine fits in place and things become a lot easier. Blantyre House has a lot to offer but it‟s up to you to want to do things. The staff at Blantyre are here for us, apart from doing their daily prison jobs, they are also there to help sort out personal problems as well as future need to help us move on. Once your lay down period is over, your time has come for town visits, projects and finally paid work. Blantyre House is what you make of it, that‟s something to always remember. Ask for help if you need it and make the most of what‟s on offer. My First Impression of Blantyre House The first thing that you notice on arrival is how relaxed the reception process is here, which gives you a clue as to how Blantyre House runs. You are encouraged to find your way around the prison on your own which is a little unsettling to prisoners who have been in bang up Prisons where everything is done by numbers. Some areas are out of bounds but these areas are very few; you may be doubled up for a few weeks but even that is no trouble because you are hardly ever in your room.

    DEVELOPMENT OF A HOLISTIC INDEX FOR SAFER ROADS By ABEER KHUDHUR JAMEEL A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Civil Engineering School of Engineering College of Engineering and Physical Sciences The University of Birmingham December 2018 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Some global and national organisations have recognised the size of this problem and introduced the “safe system approach ” approach as a successful guide for road safety management. The concept of this approach considers road safety as a system compiled of the elements of road infrastructure, mobility, and vehicles; which all should be designed to accommodate the vulnerability of the road users. This corrected the traditional view which considered road-user behaviour as the main contributing factor to the road safety problem. The question raised in this research is to what extent the safe system approach contributes to the national road safety strategic plans? To answer this question, an assessment of road safety performance is needed.

    Transport and Works Act 1992 (TWA) Transport and Works (Inquiries Procedure) Rules 2004 Application for the Rother Valley Railway (Bodiam to Robertsbridge Junction) Order Public Local Inquiry - Department for Transport Reference: TWA/18/APP/02/OBJ/1002 Statement of Case Sally-Ann Hart, Perryfield House, Udimore, Rye, East Sussex, TN31 6AY, District Councillor for Eastern Rother Ward, Rother District Council and Portfolio holder for Tourism, Culture and Public Realm. Summary Position • Negative economic impact on the wider population • Inadequate economic bases for the Application • Abuse of Transport and Works Act 1992 legislation • Investment required on the A21 to improve the road to encourage tourism and other economic growth - not add further impediments by way of a level crossing • Growth in tourism is vital in our deprived coastal, rural communities - not just about the commercial position of Kent & East Sussex Railway • Additional pressure on Robertsbridge due to existing parking issues • Safety of level crossings - the creation of new level crossings on the national network is banned unless unavoidable • Highways England objects for reasons including safety and economic grounds 1. Rother Valley Railway (the Applicant) has submitted various documentation in its application for the above Order, none of which comprises, nor addresses, adequate economic bases for the Application. RVR’s Application focusses on what it perceives as the environmental argument in favour of a new stretch of railway through an area of High Weald AONB. 2. The Applicant commissioned a Local Economic Impact Study from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2007, with an update in October 2013. These reports provide an assessment of the socio- economic impacts of the re-construction of the railway (the Scheme) based on, for example, economic modelling, desk research and field work.

  • A21 Route Treatment Project Feasibility Study Report
    A21 Route Treatment Project Feasibility Study Report May 2016 Prepared for: A21 Route Treatment Project Feasibility Study Report @ Mouchel Consulting 2015 A21 Route Treatment Project Feasibility Study Report Executive Summary Highways England has commissioned Mouchel Consulting to undertake a feasibility study of additional effective safety, accessibility and sustainability improvements that will work with, and complement, the installation of Average Speed Enforcement Cameras (ASEC), between Scotney Castle roundabout (south of Lamberhurst), and Hastings (Baldslow) on the A21. The A21 is an all-purpose trunk road serving as the main access route to Hastings from London and the North. The route forms a north-south link between the M25 at Junction 5 near Sevenoaks in West Kent and the Hastings Borough boundary on the south coast in East Sussex. The northern section of the route between the M25 and Lamberhurst is mostly dual carriageway. This study concentrates on the A21 south of the Lamberhurst bypass, from Scotney Castle roundabout to Baldslow. This 26km section of the route is a predominantly rural single carriageway which is considered to be of poor quality. It serves a number of villages and settlements in addition to forming part of the strategic road network. The main settlements on the route have a high degree of direct frontage access and there are also agricultural accesses throughout. Conflict between strategic through traffic and local trips, combined with the below- standard highway alignment, results in collision rates which are above the national average for severity ratio. As the route is single carriageway, recovery time from incidents is slow and this impacts on journey time reliability.

  • Minutes of Highways 15 December 2020
    Goudhurst Parish Council HIGHWAYS COMMITTEE Minutes of a Virtual Meeting held on 15 December 2020 via Zoom Present: Cllrs David Boniface (Chairman), Craig Broom, Alan Foster, Antony Harris and Guy Sutton. Ted Bennett, Helen Sampson and Colin Wilson as advisors. Two members of the public. 1. Apologies were accepted from Cllr Peter Wood. 2. Declarations of Interest: None. 3. Questions from the public and press: There were none. 4. Update on A21 traffic. It was noted that a letter had been received by Ted Bennett from Baroness Vere of Norbiton, Minister for Roads, Buses and Places. She had written to the Members of Parliament for the A21 between Tunbridge Wells and Hastings to let them know that work to improve the safety, to add cycle lanes, and make various improvements that had been planned to run after 2025 will now aim to be completed by 2025 following negotiations which she had had with the Government and Highways England. Mr Bennett was not sure that her reference to Scotney Castle would include the section of the A21 road we are concerned about. It has been suggested to him by Peter Philips of Highways England that our section between the Scotney Castle roundabout and the T & J Motel would not be included. Greg Clerk wrote that the next step would be to convene a meeting to establish precisely what is proposed and to ensure that the measures proposed are satisfactory. We have to assume that this meeting will be after the COVID pandemic. After some discussion it was agreed that GPC would write to Greg Clark to confirm that we are looking forward to the meeting and that we would be intending to take part in discussions about the problems of speeding traffic and other dangers of the section of road through Goudhurst Parish near Bewl Water.
