Events in Bury - Meetings

An internationally known author on angels will give a talk at Radcliffe Library on Thursday March 25.

Glennyce Eckersley lives in Manchester and has made numerous appearances on TV and radio.

She has collected countless stories from people across the world who have related their near-death experiences, and talk of being rescued by angels or being comforted and healed by them.

Glennyce’s extraordinary stories about angelic encounters are sure to appeal to believers – and maybe non-believers too!

The event starts at 7pm. Tickets cost £3 in advance to library members and £4 to non-members and on the evening (refreshments included).

Effective partnership working and its resulting success in Radcliffe is high on the agenda when Radcliffe Local Area Partnership meets on Thursday March 25.

Groundwork will be discussing its ongoing Intergenerational Project. The project, which aims to help tackle crime and the fear of crime in Radcliffe, has seen Groundwork project officers work with various groups in Radcliffe and will provide a great example of the success that partnership working can bring.

The Third Sector representative will be there to discuss the upcoming Working Together event in Radcliffe. This event will highlight good practices for third sector and public sector partners when they work together delivering services in the area.
New funding applications will be considered at the meeting before final decisions are announced. There will also be updates from partners including the police and Radcliffe Traders Group.

The meeting is at Radcliffe Civic Suite and starts at 6pm. The usual open forum and public question time will be on the agenda in the second half of the meeting.

The next meeting of the Bury East Local Area Partnership will be held in the Peel Room, Town hall, on Thursday 25 March 2010, with a chance to meet Councillors and partner agencies from 6pm, followed by the full LAP meeting at 6.30pm.

On the agenda is a report on the Education results for Bury East for 2009, in comparison with the rest of the Borough and a comparison of results in our attempts to “reduce the gap” in educational attainment.
