To find out more about CfLP, please visit our website http://www.cforlp.org.uk/

We look forward to seeing you in December.

With kind regards


Centre for Leadership Performance


The Centre for Leadership Performance is a new initiative that aims to develop leadership capability across the private, public and civic sectors in Cumbria. Over the recent past, Cumbria has been through some severely testing times and suffered from limited inward investment that has restricted economic growth.


This, coupled with the global economic downturn and national government spending cuts has reemphasised the need for the region to work together to leverage the latent creativity and fortitude residing in the area.


Imaginative, capable and informed leadership is a vital ingredient in the regeneration and development of a thriving and vibrant economy and society.


In 2008, Nuclear Management Partners (NMP) committed to strengthening the region’s leadership capability. As a vehicle to achieving this, NMP has embarked on establishing and driving forward a Centre for Leadership Performance (CfLP). At the end of September 2010, they appointed a full time Director from their staff to lead the centre.


It is recognised that leadership also has a large role to play within the developing Energy Coast Campus Initiative. Combining the requirements of NMP and the Energy Coast Campus, and with their considerable resources made available, the Centre for Leadership Performance will be able to bring together and nurture Cumbrian talent to support the Energy Coast Masterplan and lead the region into the future.


We are currently developing a tier of activity which will specifically concentrate and expand upon our leadership masterclasses theme. The first of these events will take place on 9th December. This will be the first in a series that will continue into the New Year. Please visit our website http://www.cforlp.org.uk/ to find out more about CfLP and our activities.

Movember letter - What is it ? Please support our twitter friend

Movember letter
Movember  2010
Why am I doing Movemeber ?
I am doing it to help fight Cancer, this time it’s to help fight Prostate Cancer.
Tragically, one man dies every hour from prostate cancer in the UK.
I have over the years, lost friends and family to Cancer. It’s a disease that will strike  the Young or the Old, the Fit or the Weak, Male or Female,  without prejudist.
I Support many Cancer funds, my main one being the LIVESTRONG Foundation set up by Lance Armstrong. Lance is the seven times Tour De France cyclist, who found a lump in one of his testicles and by the time he was diagnosed it had spread to his Lungs and Brain.  After major surgery he was able to come back and win the Tour De France a 3471KM Cycle Race.
  He also set up the foundation to help people who are fighting cancer or have a loved one who is fighting it. His goal is to raise awareness and provide help and information on how to battle the disease. This was one thing he personally experienced whilst battling his own fight of cancer.
Did you know?
Currently there are over28 Million people in the world Fighting Cancer.

So how will I support MOVEMBER….
By going from a clean shaven baby face to a furry Tashed top lip, whilst trying to raise money to fight Prostate Cancer….Bring it on!
I myself once found a lump and had to have it checked out. I was numb, the thoughts that ran through my mind were indescribable, waiting for what the Doc is going to say. Mine turned out ok but there are the others out there that get the news “You Have Cancer” it’s for those people that I am doing this.
Thank You for reading and please support.

Have you bought his book ? here's the link http://www.theopaphitis.com/theo-book.html

Synopsis

Theo’s life story, Enter the Dragon, is published by Orion Books in paperback. It gives an insight into the thoughts and aspirations of one of the UK’s most popular entrepreneurs.

In this revealing and controversial memoir, Theo not only takes the reader behind the scenes on Dragons' Den, he explains how he made his fortune. He also provides a master class in business methods that will enable anyone who reads this book to learn so much about how they too can improve their business acumen.

Theo recalls how his family moved to England from Cyprus and how as a poor immigrant, he took whatever jobs he could, starting as a tea boy for Lloyd's. There, despite the handicap of his dyslexia, he began to take the first steps on a career that would net him a fortune. He reveals the methods that took him to the top, and also provides some fascinating insight into the world of football from his spell as chairman of Millwall FC.

Above all, this is a book that will provide all readers with the opportunity to learn from one of the nation's most successful businessmen and put his ideas into practice.



So click on the links to follow Theo & buy the book

CUMBRIA COUNTY COUNCIL – FUNDING INFORMATION

UGG270 (UK) B&Q – Better Neighbour Grants Scheme

The Better Neighbour Grants Scheme enables schools, community groups and charitable organisations to apply for funding to support a local community project.

The scheme provides between £50 and £500 worth of B&Q materials to help get a community project up and running.

Projects should have a long-lasting benefit to the community and the materials and methods used should not damage the environment in the short or long-term.

Applications may be made at any time and the application process is initiated by visiting a local store.

UGG390 (UK) Apex Trust

Offering a wide range of services to ex-offenders and employers, Apex Trust seeks to help people with criminal records obtain jobs and encourage and support organisations to employ them.

The Trust operates a UK-wide helpline named JobCheck which offers confidential advice and information to ex-offenders and employers on a range of issues including: -

·        When a conviction becomes spent.
·        Criminal records checks.
·        Best practice for employing ex-offenders.
·        Where to get training.
·        Where to get specific advice and guidance.

In addition, the Trust runs a variety of projects based around England which offer support to ex-offenders such as employability training, advocacy and ongoing support and help to employers, for example, through the Employee Volunteer Programme which enables employees to visit prisons to talk to inmates about employment-related matters.

UE6990 (England) Clerks’ Training Bursary Scheme

Support for clerks of parish councils in England with an annual turnover of less than £25,000 is available for skills or personal training that will aid them in their councils’ work.  It is hoped that the bursary will encourage more clerks to undertake the Certificate in Local Administration.

Up to £200 is available, up to 75% of the cost of the course.

This scheme was originally due to close in March 2005, however, it has been confirmed that it will continue for the 2005/2006 financial year.  Applications must, therefore, be received by 31st March 2006.


UGG280 (UK) Henry Moore Foundation

The Henry Moore Foundation is a registered charity, set up and endowed by Mr Moore “to advance the education of the public by the promotion of their appreciation of the fine arts and in particular the works of Henry Moore”.

The Foundation concentrates its support on sculpture.  It also supports a wide range of projects and activities in the visual arts through its donations programme.  Among areas covered are student bursaries, fellowships for artists and grants to art institutions, galleries and museums.  The Foundation provides additional financial resources to support the work of living artists and contemporary art practice.

Funding of £500 upwards is available for specific projects.  A small number of grants of up to £50,000 are awarded each year.

Applications are considered at quarterly meetings of the Foundation’s Grants Committee.



UGB790 (England) Community Recycling and Economic Development (CRED)

Support of between £50,000 and £300,000 is available for community-based organisations in England to: -

·        Establish new waste recycling, reuse or composting projects in areas where they do not currently exist.
·        Expand existing waste recycling, reuse or composting projects through, for example, collection of additional materials or expanding the geographical area covered.
·        Increase the weight of material recycled reused or composted through education or awareness-raising activities.

Applications may be submitted at any time as CRED is a rolling programme with no deadlines.  However, it is expected that the scheme will close to new applications at the end of 2005 or when all the money has been allocated.  In either case, projects must be completed by the end of 2007.


NEIGHBOURHOOD FORUMS
