  • How Redditch is using Culture to drive regeneration

    I’m attending a Local Government Association training event for Councillors who have the ‘Culture’ brief on their councils.

  • It wasn’t a dark night for Redditch; it’s a new dawn for voluntary sector funding for the many, not the few.

    There’s been a lot of misconception going around – some of it accidental, but some of it deliberate. Let’s get to the facts of the matter and provide some more detail. As is often the case in this social media age, the accusations can be wrapped up in a single line, whereas the actual reality […]

  • Remembering a tragic road traffic accident of 29th April 2009, which resulted in the death of Daniel Patterson, 21.

    On the 29th of April 2009 I was sat in my room in house that I shared with friends that faced onto the London Road, Coventry (A4114). I was working late, probably on a website, when I heard an almighty smash followed by the screeching of a car braking. I initially assumed that two cars […]

  • Writer’s Rust

    When you think about it, the end of the year is a peculiar thing, isn’t it? On the one hand it’s all fairly easy-to-understand (but no means simple). The planet Earth is about to complete another orbit of its star – easy, right? Same thing that happens every year, and will happen for billions of […]

  • A post regarding Redditch Borough Council One-Stop Shops

    At last night’s Redditch Borough Council Executive Committee there was a proposal put forward to close the council’s One-Stop Shops and support Allpay, allowing members of the public to use more locations to pay council bills in person, giving them more choice about how and where they pay their council’s bills.

    The Redditch Community Lottery is now live and I’m delighted to see that 13 local good causes have registered to benefit from this scheme. Tickets cost £1 per cause per week and frankly it’s not about winning for me – it’s about having a quick and easy way to support local causes with a small […]

    Delighted to have managed the campaign here in Redditch that has seen Rachel Maclean returned as MP with a doubled majority. Here’s the numbers from Wikipedia …

  • A sermon on the sanctity of Boxing Day sales

    So I see there’s now a petition to force shops to shut on Boxing Day and do away with the sales. I’m not going to link to it.

  • Avoiding the rocks: steering a climate emergency by newspaper headlines is a dangerous course that can undermine the overall strategy.

    “How dare you. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words” Greta Thunberg at the UN Summit in New York Bearing in mind that we need actions more than words to fight climate change, I’m surprised to see this story on the Redditch climate emergency: https://redditchstandard.co.uk/news/borough-council-last-in-climate-table-despite-saying-its-ahead-on-green-issues/ It says: REDDITCH Borough Council, […]
