  • Tuesday 30Th November 2020 Dear Parents and Carers As We
    Penistone Road, Birdsedge, Huddersfield HD8 8XR Tel 01484 605441 www.birdsedgefirst.org [email protected] Head Teacher: Mrs Donna Waddington Tuesday 30th November 2020 Dear Parents and Carers As we approach that time of year when snow and severe weather can occur, I wanted to outline clearly the arrangements that would be in place should school need to close to pupils before or during the school day. In the event of severe weather, as Headteacher, I will make an assessment about whether it is safe and practical to open the school to pupils. This decision will also consider and assess the provisions for catering and cleaning as well as safe adult to pupil ratios. Please be assured that closing the school will not be a decision taken lightly and the safety and wellbeing of pupils, their families and staff will be put at the centre of this decision. On occasion this may be due to the availability of teaching/support staff who travel some distance to reach school, rather than purely conditions for pupils getting to school. Should I ever make the decision for school to close, you will be informed, by text message, early in the morning – usually by 7:30am. On occasion, it can take longer to make a decision as the ice is not always apparent and issues arise as staff are leaving home. In these circumstances, we will respond as quickly as possible. Other ways you can check reports of closure are through: Checking the School Website Checking the School Facebook and Twitter Page Checking the council website https://www.kirklees.gov.uk/schoolclosures www.kirklees.gov.uk/winter or following them on twitter Listening to local radio stations: BBC Radio Leeds and Pulse 1/Greatest Hits Radio West Yorkshire If we have to close school during the day due to changes in weather, we will inform you immediately by text message.

  • Keighley and Worth Valley Ale Trail, Where We Highlight the Fantastic Selection of Real Ale Pubs
    Keighley &Worth Valley What is CAMRA? CAMRA campaigns for real ale, real pubs and consumer rights. It is an independent, voluntary organisation with over 150,000 members and has been described as the most successful consumer group in Europe. CAMRA promotes good-quality real ale and pubs, as well as acting as the consumer’s champion in relation to the UK and European beer and drinks industry. To find out more about CAMRA visit www.camra.org.uk CAMRA aims to list all pubs in the country on www.whatpub.com which is a useful guide when outside your home area, and can be used on smartphones. CAMRA also produces the Good Beer Guide annually which lists the establishments offering the best quality real ale and lists all breweries in the country. What is Real Ale? Real ale is a top fermented beer that, following fermentation, is put into a cask with yeast and some residual fermentable sugars from the malted barley. The beer undergoes a slow secondary fermentation in the cask to produce a gentle carbonation. This leaflet has been produced with help from the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) and the Keighley and Craven branch, in particular. For more information about CAMRA’s activities locally, visit www.keighleyandcravencamra.org.uk This leaflet is for guidance only. Keighley and Craven CAMRA have tried to keep the information as accurate and up to date as possible. The information was correct at the time of going print, please check the details and opening times before visiting specific pubs. @CAMRA_Official facebook.com/campaignforrealale Pg.

If not, please visited occasionally and know of people in the explain the reasons and/or evidence which UK. support your view. There was nothing in the Ofcom rules that stated a U.S. citizen could not participate, so I have decided to participate anyway. All content is original research. ---- Localness should never be reduced on local commercial radio stations. There is research to back this up, proven by statistical research from 2008-2014. There is substantial research that proves listeners value local content to some extent, and not just in major circumstances like floods, terrorist attacks, fire, major emergencies. Rather than reducing local-made programming, some radio stations should be, by statutory requirement, have as much local programming and content as necessary. There is substantial evidence from American researchers – 2004, 2008, 2012, 2014 that proved listeners value locality as a major selling point. Unofficial research in 2007 has proved this. No station should be local for only 3 hours a day, whatever the day of week.

  • Statement: Bauer Radio Stations in the North of England
    Bauer Radio stations in the north of England Request to create a new approved area STATEMENT Publication Date: 10 November 2020 Contents Section 1. Overview 1 2. The approved area request 2 3. Assessment and decision 4 Statement: Bauer Radio stations in the north of England 1. Overview Most local analogue commercial radio stations are required to produce a certain number of hours of locally-made programming. Under legislation passed in 2010, these stations are not only able to broadcast their locally-made hours from within their licence area, but may instead broadcast from studios that are based within a larger area approved by Ofcom. These wider areas are known as ‘approved areas’. Stations can also share their local hours of programming with other stations located in the same approved area. Ofcom has approved an area for every local radio licence in the UK, to give stations more flexibility in their broadcasting arrangements. However, a licensee can ask Ofcom to approve a bespoke area, since the statutory framework allows for an approved area in relation to each local analogue service. What we have decided Following consultation, Ofcom has authorised a new approved area, ‘Yorkshire & Lincolnshire (Bauer)’, for the following 17 licences: Barnsley; Bassetlaw; Bradford & Huddersfield FM; Bridlington; Chesterfield; Doncaster; Grimsby; Harrogate; Humberside FM; Leeds FM; Lincoln; Northallerton; Rotherham; Scarborough; South Yorkshire FM; Wakefield, and; York. Following this decision, we have also approved a Format change request for the Northallerton licence, currently broadcasting as ‘Greatest Hits Radio’, which will allow it to provide locally-made programming from anywhere within this new approved area, and to share this programming with the services provided under the other licences in the new approved area listed above.

  • Report of the Keighley Area Co-Ordinator to the Meeting of The
    Report to the Keighley Area Committee Report of the Keighley Area Co-ordinator to the Meeting of the Keighley Area Committee to be held on Wednesday 11th March at 1800 in the Keighley Council Chamber, Keighley Town Hall. AL Subject: Keighley’s first BIG 10K Summary statement: This report informs members of Keighley’s first Big 10K event. Director: Ian Bairstow Portfolio: Leader of the Council Environment and Neighbourhoods Report Contact Jeff Bennett Service Improvement Report Author: John Dennis Committee: Corporate Sport Keighley E-mail: [email protected] 16 Report to the Keighley Area Committee 1. SUMMARY This report informs members of Keighley’s first Big 10K event. 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 On Sunday March 16th 2008 a broad cross section of Keighley Community took part in the inaugural event of a new type of 10K run on a multi-terrain route deliberately chosen to connect parks and communities in Keighley via the network of paths, backroads, ginnels and through routes that are characteristic of the town of Keighley. 2.2 The route primarily used “walkway” routes that have been established via the SportKeighley “walkways” initiative. This forms part of the wider “Keighley Integrated” or “Ki” initiative that also includes cycling (“cyKle”) and skating (“sKate”). 2.3 All of the initiatives, like the BIGK 10K event itself, use the “Red K” designation that is designed to promote all that is good about Keighley. 2.4 The 16th March date coincided with the national Sport Relief Mile initiative and thus a number of events were also planned around this.
