PCU - New Partnership at Christmas - 2017 (PCU Shares - Newsletter - Autumn ...Pentecostal Credit Union
New partnership at Christmas
We’re delighted to announce that we are now officially partnered with the New Testament Assembly in Tooting (NTA) in their long-established programme to deliver food hampers to people in Wandsworth at Christmas.
The Christmas Hamper Project was launched back in December 2008, by the late Amy Rose Powell MBE from the Women 2 Women ministry. She was concerned about members of the NTA Tooting Church, and people in the wider community, who were experiencing difficult times.
Responding to hardship
The project provides a box of food as a gift at Christmas to individuals or families in need – whatever their religious persuasion or ethnicity. Most of the boxes go to single parents, pensioners and households on a low income. The hampers – 2,914 of them in the past eight years – are delivered individually or via community groups.
The scriptural reference for the project is taken from Matthew 25:35-46:
“…for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me…
“Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.”
PCU sees this project as an important element of our corporate social responsibility programme. Corporate social responsibility is about contributing to the improvement of the community we are part of in some substantial way – and doing so in line with our ethics and values.
We view the local Christmas hamper programme as an essential local social service to individuals and families in desperate need at Christmas and we are privileged to take part in this.
The Devon & Cornwall Food Association Ltd (DCFA) is a charity that collects unsold but edible food from producers that would otherwise be wasted, and distributes it to other charities that feed disadvantaged individuals and families.

DCFA's goal is to obtain its own premises to collect and distribute more food more regularly, helping more people in need and reducing food waste.

Increasing highway capacity is not always a solution to the efficient mobility of people and goods as it leads to more traffic both on the new and existing roads
More traffic means more congestion
With current technology, more traffic means more road crashes, more pollution, more energy wasted, more parking congestion and increasing C02 and climate change
More reliance on car use for mobility leads to poor land use planning decisions and urban sprawl
Especially in towns and cities TDM can reduce the need for motorised transport

This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

Neighbourhood planning
update
It is time to draft our Neighbourhood plan.
Before we start to put pen to paper we
need to find out what people think about
our area and how it could and should
change. To try and find answers we set
up an online survey earlier in the year, with
questions such as ‘what do you like about
the area?’ ‘what don’t you like?’ And ‘how
can it be improved?’ The results of this
survey can be found on the HWA website,
hadleywood.org.uk.
We also held an open workshop in
November to gather more ideas about
priorities and how we should look to
influence what gets built. Around 50 people
came along and discussed a range of
issues prompted by pictures from around
the area. We covered topics such as what
made for a good roof extension, how much
space should be left between neighbouring
homes, how important planting and trees
are etc. The questions and picture prompts
can be found at http://goo.gl/forms/
dJZgeWbdC0. Please do have a look
and add your thoughts. We really need as
many responses as
possible.
The results of this
exercise will help us
draft our own local
planning policies for
extensions and infill

With thanks to the 1,322 who signed our
petition for step-free access to the station,
we presented it in Christmas wrapping
to GTR’s Local Development Manager
Andrew Sidgwick on 4 December on Platform
4. The Rail User Group was represented by
all generations of potential beneficiaries:
Elizabeth Finch, Jacob Lobo (with bike) and
little Molly Haigh, accompanied by pregnant
mother Lucy Cope and large buggy. They’re
pictured here with Andrew, Station Manager
Duncan Primrose and Francesca Caine.
RailFuture Chairman Keith Dyall and Hadley
Wood Association Chair Rupert Mackay
were also present among the Hadley
Wooders. The event was featured in the
Barnet and Potters Bar Press and also
achieved this coverage in GTR’s internal
weekly newsletter: “The Group presented
the petition wrapped as a gift, with more than
1,300 signatures. This equates to roughly
every person who uses the station on a daily
basis, which was a huge achievement for the
Group. We hope to deliver step-free access
on the northbound platform alongside other
improvements at the station in 2016-17,
subject to funding being awarded.”

Council consider planning applications in
Hadley Wood. Our Neighbourhood Plan
will hopefully influence more than individual
planning applications, although these are
of course important often having such a
big impact on neighbours. But we have the
opportunity to look at other issues such as:
• how to keep our shops open now that
national planning regulations have been
relaxed and thus allowing their conversion
to homes without planning permission.
• how to secure a long term, financially
sound future for the Association buildings
and land which helps it provide the facilities
people have been asking for.
• how to create a more attractive and useful
‘heart’ to our neighbourhood, maybe with
improvements to the public space outside
the shops, the station and, as requested
many many times in the surveys, providing
a pub/bar/social club facility.
The Forum can also take a much more
active role in looking at, coordinating and
strengthening responses to individual
planning applications.
To do all of this we need help! It is
wonderful that so many residents joined
the Forum, came along to both our public
events and filled in the first survey. But
without individuals stepping up and taking
charge of the activities above, they are just
not going to happen. So if you would like to
lead on monitoring planning applications,
drawing up a public realm improvement
scheme or draft our planning policies, or
any other action please do let us know at

In receiving the petition, Andrew outlined
his hope that GTR would be able to
implement a package of enhancements
in the next financial year, including better
waiting facilities on Platform 4 and departure
signage at street level as well as step-free
access to the northbound platform and hence
on to the rail network in either direction. The
Rail User Group (RUG) will keep closely
in touch with GTR to achieve as much as
possible for Hadley Wood. RUG meeting
dates are advertised on the noticeboard at
the station entrance and both prospective
and current members are most welcome. Our
increasingly close communications with GTR
also cover wider service issues, such as the
high delay and cancellation rate in the run-up
to Christmas. If you have any feedback on
the service, don’t keep it to yourself: email
Duncan and/or the RUG (email addresses
below). This will ensure that the special needs
of Hadley Wood in having no alternative
means of public transport remain high on
GTR’s radar. We have already emphasised to

A Woodland plan for Monken
Hadley Common
For the past twenty years there have been a
series of five-year management plans to guide
the overall maintenance and development
of our Common. But there has not been any
specific plan for the long-term management of
the woodland. The majority of the work on trees
has simply been maintenance i.e. preventing
the spread of saplings into the open grassland
them the need for excellent communication
of any service issues and strongly suggest
that you check before you travel, either via
web or the rather neat Thameslink app that
shows where the trains actually are! Finally,
don’t forget that GTR does offer Assisted
Travel now to anyone who needs it (contact
details in the banner below). Philip and I had
to call on it recently because of unexpected
illness shortly before travelling back from
Northumberland and were duly deposited at
street level in Hadley Wood. Thank you, GTR!
STOP PRESS: GTR has just given its
commitment to implementing step-free
access to the northbound platform in the
forthcoming financial year.

areas and the removal of dead/dangerous trees
and branches. Consequently, the volunteer
team that manages the Common face a number
of problems about which, they believe, there
would be a fairly broad consensus:
• holly has become too widespread; it prevents
successful growth of other species and in
some areas it has created a dark, and almost
forbidding, environment
• the unchecked growth of self-seeded trees
has led to serious overcrowding: the existing
dense, high canopy prevents the development
of saplings as well as any “open grown” trees.
• the paths through the woods are all very
similar; with few exceptions, they are narrow, and
each spring become narrower, with encroaching
brambles and holly.
To address these problems, an arboriculturist
wasappointedtodraftaWoodlandManagement
Plan (WMP). Apart from providing an invaluable
framework on how to address these key
issues and establish a sustainable woodland,
a successful application of the WMP to the
Forestry Commission can result in obtaining
grants to do much of the work.
Action clearly needs to be taken to effect
these changes. However, our overriding
objective for the woods is to retain its essential
character and semi-natural feel. It is not the plan
to make it look like a country park or similar.
Anyone with an interest in the development of
the Common should access the website www.
monkenhadleycommon.net where they will be
directed to a copy of the draft WMP on the first
page. If after reading the plan you have any
comments, please do get in touch with one of
the Curators whose contact details are shown
at the end of the plan.

St Martha’s
2015 started with a new
Chairman for the Hadley
Wood Association. The
Rev. Rupert Mackay, Vicar
of St Paul’s took over from
Graham Sharp. A hard act to follow. Jason
Charalambous a local young solicitor
became an Enfield Councillor whose
special responsibility is the Cockfosters
ward. That’s us.
Francesca Caine retired and immediately
started revolutionising our travel prospects,
creating a Railway Users Group aimed at
improving all aspects of rail travel from our
130 year old station. In particular step free
access. Esther Kurland who works in the
field of Local Government provided strong
and knowledgeable leadership for the new
Hadley Wood Neighbourhood Forum which
on July 7th was approved by the Council
and thus given legal status and power
under the Localism Act of 2011. (“The time
has come to disperse power more widely
in Britain today.” So said the Prime Minister
and the Deputy Prime Minister, Coalition
Agreement in May 2010). We hope so.
The Middlesex University’s old campus
in Trent Park was threatened by unwanted
development and a Save Trent Park
campaign started with a crowded meeting
at Cockfoster Church and massive local
support. Hadley Wood’s clubs and
institutions continued to thrive. Barnet’s
rugby under 10’s (with strong representation
from Hadley Wood lads and their Dad’s
acting as coaches) won the U10 Allianz
Cup final. The Hadley Wood and Wingate
Football Club now with 19 teams from
Under 7 to Under 15 continued to play at
Bartrams Lane field and the Tennis club ran
its customary Summer coaching for children
as well as providing a lovely environment
and facilities for its playing members. The
Bridge Club, the Women’s Institute, Janice
Salmon’s Dance school, the Running Club
and the Golf Club offered other opportunities
for recreation which were enthusiastically
accepted by local residents. Mums took
their young children to our popular Pre
school and Playgroup at the Hadley Wood
Association building. Summer brought us
the Dog Show and the Primary school’s
Summer Fete. Both unmissable. More
events followed for the Primary School
as it celebrated it’s 50th Anniversary. July
saw the first of John Leatherdale’s two
historical articles about Hadley Wood
published in this magazine and illustrated
by his collection of old photographs of the
area. The HWA website (hadleywood.org.
uk) blossomed thanks to the efforts and
ability of George McCormick. By July the
site was receiving between 100 and 300
page views a day. August was notable for
flooding in parts of Hadley Wood with water
entering homes. In November Maria Evans
and her team put on a wonderful Fireworks
and Bonfire night with all sorts of rides food
and drinks stalls etc. This was sponsored
generously, as ever, by Staton’s estate
agents. Sadly it rained though this did not
deter Hadleywooders and their families
from having a great evening.
So we reached a wet and warm Christmas
2015 with Fairs, the usual celebrations and
daffodils flowering in back gardens.

Dear Editor
The Friends of Trent Park are currently
engaged in discussions with Enfield Council
to restrain the number and impact of
events held in the park this year. Last year’s
experience was highly variable with some
community gatherings proving successful
and impacting very little on regular park
users. However, the large commercial
musical event, FOUND, proved too noisy in
August and the 10,000 attendees too many
for the neighbourhood. But the Council now
state this is the event that brings in significant
money, so they are planning to run it again
this year. Some concessions have been
granted to residents’ interests; there will
be some investment back into the park
from the council’s fees, and events will be
spaced out better with the two key summer
months protected as far as possible, so not
to discourage regular users.
Since Berkeley acquired control of the
campus last September, they have been
sizing up the options. The Friends are
pressing for substantial investment in the

Update on Trent Park
You may have heard the news that in September
Berkeley Homes acquired the listed mansion and
grounds at the heart of Trent Park, marking the
beginning of a new chapter in the life of this attractive
and historically important estate. The 21 hectare site
surrounded by public parkland, which was famously
used as an intelligence gathering Prisoner of War camp
in WWII for captured German generals, has lain vacant
for the past three years since Middlesex University’s
departure and the subsequent Malaysian owner went
into liquidation.
Berkeley have said they will aim to submit a planning
application in the Autumn for a primarily residential led
development, and have reassuringly stated that they
are “committed to the long term protection of the listed
Mansion House and other listed heritage assets” and
“understand the need for the site to remain accessible to the local
community so that it can be enjoyed by future generations”.
Whilst a great number of people lament the loss of the educational
use of the site, this could be compensated with community facilities
and a heritage centre within the mansion focussing on the unique
role it played in WWII, together with its illustrious
pre-war history where prime ministers and royalty
were hosted by the socialite owner Sir Philip
Sassoon. The murals of the great British artist
Rex Whistler still adorn the walls, and it is only
right that these should be enjoyed by the public,
much as they were during Middlesex University’s
ownership.
It is important that any proposal includes
permanent public access to the grounds and
mansion, and that any new development is
sympathetic in style and scale to the beautiful
surrounding parkland, and appropriate to the site’s
Green Belt and Conservation Area designation.
During the course of this year there will be
various consultations held by Berkeley Homes
and Enfield Council, and wide public participation is important to
ensure a positive outcome for this cherished site. To keep updated

Should it grant planning permission for
housing, no doubt Enfield Council will
seek a large contribution too. Excessive
pressures will result in building massing
that will damage aspects of the views and
atmosphere so valuable to many thousands
of us. We await further news – Berkeley have
posted another meeting for January 27th to
reveal the next stage to the public.
