Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DK77C6 - A tight, documentary close-up of the Scottish Firefighters Memorial railings on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, photographed in Parliament Square within the Old Town. The black wrought-iron panel is both functional and symbolic: a protective barrier at street level and, at the same time, a small piece of public art that quietly signals remembrance. At the centre is a stylised firefighter figure, rendered in simple lines and surrounded by curved framing that gives the panel a badge-like feel. The eye is pulled to the crisp, readable donor inscription, JAS BALFOUR ACCOUNTANT, integrated into the ironwork as a permanent acknowledgement of benefaction and civic generosity.
The setting feels unmistakably Edinburgh: time-worn stone, a slight sheen of moisture on the paving, and small traces of moss that hint at the city's cool, damp climate. The overall light is soft and flat, consistent with overcast Scottish daylight, which helps reveal fine detail in the metalwork without harsh shadows. Behind the railings, the memorial structure sits within a compact urban space where passers-by might pause briefly, read a name, then move on. That everyday flow is part of what gives the image its emotional weight: commemoration embedded into normal city life, rather than separated behind gates or inside a building.
As an editorial photograph, it works on several levels: as a literal record of a specific memorial feature on the Royal Mile
as a visual hook for stories about emergency services, public safety, and occupational heritage
and as a broader comment on how cities honour frontline workers through durable materials that can withstand weather and time. The donor wording adds a second narrative layer about philanthropy and local patronage, suggesting the quiet networks of support that sit behind many public monuments. The composition, textures, and legible text make it suitable for travel, history, culture, and remembrance themes, as well as Scottish identity and Edinburgh Old T

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DM9858 - A documentary street-level photograph of a branded MSV (Mosscare St Vincent's Housing) service van parked in Stockport, Greater Manchester. The vehicle's yellow and white livery is clearly readable and promotes the organisation and its housing support offer, including the phrases Healthy Homes and Fair & Friendly Service. The branding also shows the MSV name and logo, the website msvhousing.co.uk, and a contact telephone number 0161 226 4211, making the image highly searchable for editorial and sector use. Simple illustrated figures on the panel suggest community-focused housing work and practical property support.
The composition is straightforward and functional, focusing on the side profile of the van with the signage fully visible, which is often exactly what editors need for a neutral illustration of a housing association, landlord services, or housing maintenance activity. The setting reads as a typical urban backstreet or service-road environment with industrial or commercial buildings in the background, reinforcing themes of frontline operational delivery rather than corporate office life.
This image can support stories about UK social housing providers, tenant and resident services, repairs and maintenance operations, healthy homes initiatives, damp and mould response, and wider housing quality and wellbeing agendas. It also suits business and public-sector coverage of service fleets, neighbourhood operations, and the day-to-day logistics of housing management in Greater Manchester.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CGCJRA - Ian Kevin Curtis (15 July 1956 ? 18 May 1980) was an English singer, songwriter and musician. He was the lead singer, songwriter, and occasional guitarist of the band Joy Division, with whom he released the albums Unknown Pleasures (1979) and Closer (1980).
Curtis had severe epilepsy and depression and died by suicide on the eve of Joy Division's first North American tour, shortly before the release of Closer
On the evening of 17 May 1980, Curtis asked Deborah to drop her impending divorce proceedings
she replied that it was likely that he would have changed his mind by the following morning and then ? mindful of his previous suicide attempt and also concerned that his state of anxiety and frustration might drive Curtis into an epileptic seizure ? offered to spend the night in his company. Deborah then drove to her parents' home to inform them of her intentions. When she returned to the couple's home at 77 Barton Street in Macclesfield, his demeanour had changed and he informed his wife of his intentions to spend the night alone, first making her promise not to return to the house before he had taken his scheduled 10 a.m. train to Manchester to meet his bandmates.
In the early hours of the next morning, Curtis took his own life. He was 23 years old. He had used the kitchen's washing line to hang himself after having written a note to Deborah in which he declared his love for her despite his recent affair with Honor??. Deborah found his body soon after. In her 1995 biography, Touching from a Distance, Deborah recalls finding her husband's body and initially thinking that he was still alive before noticing the rope around his neck. According to Tony Wilson, Curtis spent the few hours before his suicide watching Werner Herzog's 1977 film Stroszek and listening to Iggy Pop's 1977 album The Idiot. Stark notes the significance of this album, as Pop's title was inspired by Dostoyevsky's novel The Idiot about the spiritually sensitive epileptic prince who was driven mad

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6F5 - The historic building of the Manchester and Salford Street Children's Mission, located on Wood Street in Manchester city centre, photographed with its original engraved stone signage clearly visible. The mission was established in the nineteenth century to support and reform vulnerable and impoverished children living in the rapidly expanding industrial cities of Manchester and Salford.
During the Victorian period, large numbers of children were affected by poverty, overcrowding, poor housing and limited access to education, particularly in industrial centres shaped by textile manufacturing and urban labour. Organisations such as the Street Children's Mission emerged as part of a wider philanthropic and religious reform movement, aiming to provide food, shelter, moral guidance and basic education at a time when formal state welfare systems did not yet exist.
The building itself is constructed in red brick with decorative stone detailing, typical of late Victorian civic and charitable architecture, and prominently bears the inscriptions Manchester & Salford and Street Children's Mission, underlining its regional scope and social purpose. Such inscriptions were often designed to make charitable intent visible within the urban streetscape, signalling moral responsibility and civic engagement to the surrounding community.
Today, the building stands as a physical reminder of Manchester's social reform history and the city's long tradition of voluntary action addressing inequality and child welfare. Its survival within a redeveloped city centre highlights the contrast between modern urban regeneration and the legacy of nineteenth-century responses to poverty and social injustice.
Photographed in daylight with architectural details emphasised, the image offers strong editorial value for themes including Victorian social history, charity heritage, urban poverty, welfare before the modern state, and the evolution of social care in Britain.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T19PG5 - Warrington Oktoberfest is back, and it will be held once again at Warrington's Parr Hall later this year. More info at www.warringtonoktoberfest.org.uk
The event is organised by Rotary Warrington, with all profits from the festival going to good causes.
A must-visit for beer aficionados, the festival will include dozens of speciality brews, imported ales, and drinks of varying strengths and tastes.
There will also be a gin and fizz bar, a cider bar, and a driver's bar available during the event, too.
Warrington Oktoberfest will be held at Parr Hall between October 12-14.
There will be traditional Oktoberfest-style food available throughout the event, which is set to be supplied by Warrington's 'best for burgers 2023' Cafe at the End of the Universe.
Speaking to the Warrington Guardian, one of the event's organisers - Samantha Bridger - said that the whole group has been 'blown away' by the support provided by sponsors of the event.
She said: All our sponsors are amazing, and they help with everything from the set up, to equipment, money, and even the racking used for beer kegs.
In terms of ticket costs, Samantha said: We are delighted to say that tickets are ?10, which we think is phenomenally cheap, and we're selling them in advance - which includes a small booking fee.
Tickets will be available on the door, too, if we have any left.
There will be live music performed across the event, with the following bands playing across the festival:
The Pink Pumps
Fairchild Robinson
The Red River Band

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T10DPJ - H.M.Pasties was set up by Lee Wakeham, an ex-offender with the aim to ?bring out the good inside' by employing ex-offenders to make and sell delicious handmade Cornish-style pasties.
Inspired by the success of Bad Boys Bakery, The Barker Baker and the Clink Charity
who now boast a 41% reduction in reoffending for people involved in the bakery, H.M.Pasties was born in 2018 with support from the Big Lottery Fund, Forward Trust and the Santander Foundation.
With over 10.5 million people in the UK holding a criminal record many face huge difficulties in gaining employment post sentence due to the stigma that surrounds it.
H.M.Pasties wants to stop talent and lives from being wasted. They are passionate about helping those who feel left behind to find fulfilling work in order to enhance their wellbeing and help them feel part of a thriving local community. By offering a transitional employment programme which provides training and support ex-offenders can become ready for the world of work, making long term employment a reality.
H.M.Pasties was created to supply high quality, handmade traditional pasties and other baked goods to customers across Greater Manchester and add real social benefit.
This is achieved by not only sourcing ingredients from the Prison Estate but also by employing people with convictions in the manufacture, sales and distribution of the pasties whilst simultaneously offering peer mentoring support to enable them to build new careers and live a life free of crime.
In order to become a truly independent, self sustaining business, HM Pasties is now a stand alone limited company looking to build on our now established brand to create even more social impact.
Dignity, self-respect and a stable income are crucial to preventing reoffending, and securing employment is the key to achieving those goals.

It all started when it was realised that Victoria Primary School in Newhaven on the northern outskirts of Edinburgh needed to expand and the decision was taken to build a new school.
Now we're almost three years down the line and the dream of converting the site containing the Victorian building into a brand new intergenerational centre for the whole community to enjoy, is nearing completion.
We've consulted with the community to find out what they want.
We've set up a SCIO, The Heart of Newhaven Community SCIO SCO49919 a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation. Constitution is here.
We have a board of trustees. We have members who will take the decisions moving into the future. See your board and consultants here.
We've passed the Community Asset Transfer test with Edinburgh City Council and been given permission to purchase the site. The Scottish Land fund have given us the Funds to buy the building.
NEWHAVEN IS A COMMUNITY WITH A HEART
Pulsating with energy is Victoria Primary School, full of children who in 2022 moved across Lindsay Road to a new site to pursue dreams for the future.
This iconic building and its annexe deserve be an asset for the whole community of Newhaven ?young and old, long-time residents and those newly moved here: everybody who wants to have a place to enjoy activities that can't yet find a space in Newhaven.
Newhaven has a distinct identity.
Its rapidly increasing population and range of activities is crying out for a focal point to express our sense of community life, especially to help those in greatest need of care and well-being.
The Heart of Newhaven was chosen as a name for the proposed centre, and the campaign to keep this building for the community, because:
it is in the centre of 'Greater Newhaven' (old and new combined)
because a community space for everyone is what keeps the community heart in Newhaven for the future.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2REGJ65 - A brightly coloured, hand-painted wooden sign mounted on a brick wall outside Leon's Store on Tabley Street in Northwich, Cheshire. The sign lists a wide range of goods including used furniture, clothing, house clearances, pre-loved furnishings, vintage and retro items, toys, games and vinyl records, reflecting the eclectic nature of independent second-hand retail.
The informal, recycled appearance of the sign, with individual painted wooden slats in different colours, conveys a do-it-yourself aesthetic often associated with small independent shops and reuse-based businesses. Such retailers play an important role in town centres like Northwich, combining affordability, sustainability and local character at a time when many UK high streets face pressure from vacancy and chain-store dominance.
Photographed in daylight, the image documents everyday independent retail culture in a provincial English town. It is suitable for editorial use relating to high-street change, small businesses, sustainability, reuse economies, and contemporary British town-centre life. Visible Text (fully analysed)

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RCC5PR - This image shows winners of a charity auction posing with illustrated pub signs from The Petrol Head, a themed pop-up pub at Silverstone Woodlands camping during the 2023 Formula 1 British Grand Prix weekend.
The Petrol Head pub formed part of the temporary festival-style facilities provided for F1 fans staying at the Woodlands campsite near Silverstone Circuit.
As part of the event, a selection of bespoke, illustrated pub signs created specifically for the pop-up venue were auctioned to raise money for charity.
The auction took place during the race weekend, with all proceeds from the sale of the signs donated to charitable causes supported by the organisers.
Such charity auctions are a regular feature of large UK motorsport camping events, combining memorabilia, fan engagement, and fundraising in an informal social setting.
The two winning bidders are shown holding their purchased signs immediately after the auction, marking both the fundraising success and the temporary nature of the installation.
The event highlights how major sporting weekends such as the British Grand Prix often include community-focused fundraising activities alongside entertainment and hospitality.
While the pub itself existed only for the duration of the F1 weekend, the auctioned signs became lasting keepsakes linked to a specific moment in the 2023 British Grand Prix.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RAP32W - The street-level offices of the Causeway Rural and Urban Network, a local charity and community organisation based at 1 Brook Street in Coleraine, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. The modern shopfront-style premises display clear exterior signage and welcome branding, indicating a public-facing service accessible from the town centre.
Causeway Rural and Urban Network works within the voluntary and community sector, supporting individuals and communities across the Causeway Coast and Glens area. The organisation forms part of the wider network of charities and third-sector bodies that provide advice, support, and social inclusion services alongside statutory provision.
Photographed in natural daylight, the image documents the everyday presence of community organisations within Northern Irish town centres, illustrating how former commercial units are increasingly used to deliver charitable and social support services. It reflects the changing function of high-street premises and the growing visibility of the voluntary sector in local urban environments. Causeway Rural and Urban Network (CRUN) has delivered a range of practical, community-focused projects across Northern Ireland, particularly in the Causeway Coast and Glens area, aimed at tackling social exclusion and supporting people facing disadvantage. Its work has included rural and urban community support programmes, employability and skills initiatives, and digital inclusion projects helping people access online services, benefits and training. CRUN has also been involved in poverty and food-security responses, supporting food-bank style provision and crisis assistance, alongside wellbeing and social-isolation projects for older people and vulnerable adults. Many of its projects have focused on reaching individuals who struggle to engage with statutory services, using accessible town-centre bases and outreach work to provide advice, confidence-building and pathways into further support, education etc

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RGHXB0 - A large, brightly coloured mural promoting Faith Hope Charity, painted on the side of a small brick building in The Fountain, a predominantly loyalist residential area of Derry / Londonderry, Northern Ireland. The artwork features portraits, religious and charitable symbolism, and references to international outreach, including Ghana, alongside strong expressions of British identity. A large Union flag painted on an adjacent wall reinforces the cultural and political context of the neighbourhood.
The Fountain is one of the oldest inhabited areas of the city and is well known for its distinct community identity and extensive use of murals and painted symbols as expressions of heritage, belief, and local values. Murals in this area often combine themes of religion, charity, history, and identity, serving both as community statements and as visual markers within the urban landscape.
Photographed in daylight under overcast skies, the image captures the mural's bold colours contrasted against the surrounding residential environment. The photograph is suitable for editorial and commercial uses illustrating Northern Irish mural culture, community identity, charitable organisations, peace and reconciliation contexts, and the continuing role of public art in expressing local narratives within divided or post-conflict urban settings.
Location: The Fountain, Derry / Londonderry, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland, BT48 (exact street and full postcode not visible on the image).

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R64T2G - This image shows the branding on a vehicle operated by Lancashire Boys & Girls Clubs, a long-established youth charity working across Lancashire. The logo features stylised figures in motion alongside the organisation's name, visually representing participation, inclusion, and youth development.
Lancashire Boys & Girls Clubs supports children and young people through a network of local clubs, volunteers, and partner organisations, offering activities focused on personal development, wellbeing, education, leadership, and sport. Vehicles such as this are used to support outreach work, enabling safe and reliable transport to events, training sessions, and organised activities.
The image highlights the operational side of the voluntary and community sector, where practical infrastructure such as transport plays a key role in widening access and removing barriers for young people. Clear charity branding also reinforces visibility, trust, and accountability within local communities.
Photographed in daylight, the image is well suited for editorial use illustrating UK youth services, charities, social mobility initiatives, and the role of voluntary organisations in supporting young people at a local and regional level.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDGW - This image shows a brightly coloured charity donation statue representing Guide Dogs, a UK-based organisation that provides assistance dogs and mobility support for people who are blind or partially sighted. The statue depicts an adult guide dog with a puppy and carries the fundraising message Every Penny Counts, encouraging small public donations.
Guide Dogs is one of the UK's best-known disability charities, relying heavily on public fundraising to breed, train, and support working guide dogs and their handlers. Donation statues like this are commonly placed outside shops and in busy public areas, serving both as collection points and as visual reminders of the charity's work.
The friendly, cartoon-like design of the statue is intended to be approachable and recognisable, appealing to adults and children alike. The bright yellow colouring ensures high visibility in street environments, while the inclusion of a puppy reinforces themes of care, training, and long-term commitment.
Photographed in daylight in a public setting, the image is suitable for editorial use covering charity fundraising, disability support, sight loss awareness, community giving, social care, and the role of voluntary organisations in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PJW6RM - The Everyman Theatre stands at the north end of Hope Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, England. It was founded in 1964, in Hope Hall (once a chapel, then a cinema), in an area of Liverpool noted for its bohemian environment and political edge, and quickly built a reputation for ground-breaking work. The Everyman was completely rebuilt between 2011 and 2014
The building was constructed as Hope Hall, a dissenters' chapel built in 1837. In 1841 it became a church dedicated to Saint John the Evangelist. This became a public concert hall in 1853. In 1912 the hall was turned into Hope Hall Cinema, which continued serving this purpose until it closed in 1963. Prior to its closure the hall had become a meeting place for local artists, poets, folk musicians, and sculptors, including Arthur Dooley, Roger McGough, and Adrian Henri, forming what became known as the Liverpool Scene. This group decided that the building would be suitable for use as a theatre and in September 1964 the Everyman Theatre was opened by Martin Jenkins, Peter James and Terry Hands
In July 2011 the theatre closed to be completely rebuilt. The last major production was Macbeth, starring David Morrissey and Julia Ford, which closed on 11 June. This was followed by performances from Roger McGough and Brian Patten, and by the local pop band Deaf School. The final closure event took place on 2 July. From 28 July contents of the theatre, including seats and benches from the theatre, and pillars from the original Hope Hall, were available for purchase by auction.
The Everyman reopened in February 2014.[8] In October 2014, the Stirling Prize from the Royal Institute of British Architects for the best British building of the year was awarded to Haworth Tompkins for their work on the new Everyman

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PKA5JD - Why do a sleepout in the Cathedral?
The Whitechapel Centre is Liverpool's leading homeless charity, helping those living without a home. Liverpool Cathedral is a vibrant, active place that helps the people of the city in many ways through schools, family workshops, foodbanks and community markets, volunteering, or just being a safe place to keep warm. Together, we are working really hard to make sure everyone in Liverpool can have a place to call home and live to their full potential. Unfortunately, more and more people need our help each year.
?
We know that many people want to help those they see sleeping on the streets or who are struggling but it can be difficult to know the best way to help. By taking part in the Cathedral Sleepout and raising as much money as possible, you'll enable us to give people food, find them a home and teach them new skills.
?
The Cathedral Sleepout is a very rare opportunity to sleep inside the fantastic Liverpool Cathedral. The Sleepout doesn't compare to sleeping outside on the streets, but we want to help people understand how difficult it might be when you don't have a place to go.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PPBK - This image shows a yellow Dogs Trust dog ambulance van parked in a public car park. The vehicle carries prominent Dogs Trust branding and the long-established slogan A dog is for life, which reflects the charity's core message promoting responsible dog ownership and lifelong commitment to pets.
Dog ambulance vans form a vital part of Dogs Trust's operational fleet, providing safe and secure transport for dogs between rescue centres, veterinary facilities, foster placements, and rehoming locations. These vehicles are specially adapted to ensure animal welfare during transit and are used across the UK as part of the charity's rescue and support services.
Dogs Trust is the UK's largest dog welfare charity and plays a major role in dog rehoming, education, and animal protection. The visibility of branded vehicles such as this helps raise public awareness of dog welfare issues while supporting practical, frontline rescue work.
Photographed in overcast, wet conditions, the image offers a realistic, documentary view of everyday charity operations. It is well suited for editorial use covering animal welfare, rescue services, charity logistics, pet ownership responsibility, and the role of voluntary organisations in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R55J86 - This image shows a branded charity van operated by Street Hearts BG, a UK-based animal welfare organisation focused on dog neutering, rescue, and population control. The vehicle prominently displays the charity's name, logo, and mission statement, along with notices indicating that live animals may be in transit.
Street Hearts BG works to reduce the number of stray and abandoned dogs through neutering programmes and rescue activities, often operating across borders and in partnership with other animal welfare groups. Vehicles like this are essential to the charity's work, enabling the safe transport of animals to veterinary facilities, foster homes, or rescue centres.
The van's clear signage, social media links, and safety notices highlight the professionalisation of modern charitable operations and the importance of public visibility in fundraising and awareness-raising. Parked on a quiet residential street, the vehicle situates animal welfare work within everyday community settings rather than remote or specialist locations.
Photographed in daylight, the image is well suited to editorial use covering animal welfare, UK charities, rescue logistics, responsible pet ownership, volunteering, and the practical realities of non-profit operations focused on protecting animals.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2MKF7XX - In the autumn of 1943 a small group of nine people met in a small studio near the Parish Church to discuss the formation of a play - reading and discussion group. Wigan Little Theatre came into being as a Friendly Society.
56a Market Street, became the headquarters
On weeknights one could find pieces of sets in construction or the actors in rehearsal, in the knowledge that the set had to be erected on a stage on a Monday night, and the play dress-rehearsed on the Tuesday.
That stage was at St. Michael's Hall in Shaw Street, and it was to be the group's platform for three and a half years. Four hundred Wiganers were now members and the financial success of the productions in following months, together with monies raised by private efforts, enabled the pioneers to plunge.
While the reign at St. Michael's was blooming, the committee had taken an option on the derelict cinema, which is now our theatre, and the sojourn at 56a ended, for all rehearsals and preparation could now be held in the equally spare surroundings of the Alliance. This was in 1946, and it was a condition of the building license for its conversion, that as many jobs as could be done by amateur labour should be. Expert advice duly delegated to eager novices directed the stripping of plaster and pickaxing of underground passageways each evening, while by day the joiners and plasterers spread their masking finishes
The final weeks of preparation were frenzied. By February 1948, productions had raised ?850, interest free loans had been encouraged to the tune of ?820, members' private efforts had brought in ?1,450 and the scheme by which our supporters endowed seats in the theatre at ?5 each had produced ?500.
In all, when the theatre opened, ?3,500 had been raised to cover the deposit on the building and necessary alterations amounting to ?2,500. This was followed by a generous interest free loan of ?4,000 by Mr. F. T. Hanson, which put the theatre on a solid footing.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K6HJFR - Gloucester Services are a pair of Motorway Service Areas (MSA) serving the northbound and southbound carriageways of the M5 between Junction 11A and Junction 12, near Whaddon, Gloucester. It specialises in selling artisanal food, and does not offer outlets for popular chain food brands.
Construction of the northbound services began in early 2013, and they officially opened on 7 May 2014. Construction of the southbound services commenced in March 2014 and they opened on 19 May 2015
In September 2009, the independent motorway services operator Westmorland Motorway Services Ltd, jointly with a local charitable trust, Gloucestershire Gateway Trust, submitted plans for a service area at Matson for public consultation. The plans were for a business operated in a similar manner to Tebay Services on the M6 in Cumbria, with much of the food and produce on sale being sourced from local suppliers
The operator promised not to host chain coffee shops, fast-food outlets, or video and gambling machines
The service area supports the Gloucestershire Gateway Trust in assisting the business to provide good jobs for more deprived areas of Gloucester, and to support local social regeneration schemes.
The 2019 Motorway Services User Survey found that Gloucester's southbound side was in the top five motorway services in the UK for customer satisfaction
The District Council was informed at the end of February 2011 that Roadchef and Welcome Break (the operators of Strensham and Michaelwood service stations) had applied to the High Court for a judicial review of the Council's decision to grant planning permission. Joined in the action were CAMSA and the Parish Councils of Brookthorpe-with-Whaddon and Harescombe. The case was heard in the High Court in Birmingham on 17 and 18 January 2012. By 8 February 2012, the High Court had dismissed all challenges to the planning application
One of the factors that helped the development gain planning permission was the inclusion of a green roof

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K1WB79 - Freemasonry in Derbyshire was first established as early as 1732, about 15 years after the formation of the first Grand Lodge and around 86 years after the first ever recorded Lodge in England.
The earliest Lodges were often named after the building where the meetings took place, which not surprisingly would have been an Inn or Tavern. Alternatively, from place or family names. The latter being the case here in Glossop. Initially taking its name from the family of the Duke of Devonshire and recently changed to Glossopdale Lodge following a restructure in 2017.
Over time, Lodges were formed and Lodges were disbanded. The oldest surviving Lodge in Derbyshire is Tyrian Lodge ?? 253, being established in 1785. The Province of Derbyshire was designated, largely observing the County boundary, in 1789. As the number of subscribing members grew, new (daughter) Lodges opened, including our Lodge in Glossop in 1853. We are the fourth oldest surviving Lodge in Derbyshire. If you are tracing your family history and would like to know if any were freemasons in our Lodge, we would love to help you.
The Lodge originally met at the Globe Inn, High Street West, moving in 1857 to the Norfolk Arms.

The Glossopdale Furniture Project is a registered charity based in Glossop, supported by Derbyshire County Council, High Peak Borough Council, Foundation Derbyshire and various Charitable Trusts. Covering the whole of the High Peak area it was set up in 1997 when it became obvious of the serious need for a charitable project of this nature.
Those it helps are referrals from social services, housing charities, women's refuges and many other local organisations who support individuals and families in need. During 2019-2020 the Project supported over 150 households by providing free Emergency Packs of furniture and everyday essentials to those who have been homeless and given a new tenancy where the property has none of the necessary items. Depending on need, a basic pack can consist of a bed, sofa, chest of drawers, wardrobe, fridge, bedding, crockery, microwave, kettle and toaster to help set up their new home.
The Project is the only voluntary organisation within the High Peak offering such a service and is in constant demand. It is seen by the statutory and voluntary agencies who use the Project as a lifeline for their service users. Such is the demand, requests for the Project's assistance have been received nationally from well beyond the High Peak region it serves.
As a charity, fundraising is on-going - because the need is always there. Relying on the donations of unwanted furniture and household items to maintain its stock, the Project reclaims, restores, refurbishes and upcycles furniture for sale. Its premises at Pikes Lane and George Street are open to the general public for the purchase of used and pre-loved furniture which goes towards the charity's funds. With a growing trend in retro decor, the Project's dedicated specialist furniture painting workshop is kept busy. This not only helps fund the charity but also benefits the local environment by diverting

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0KX5B - Penny Lane is a song by the English rock band the Beatles that was released in February 1967 as a double A-side single with Strawberry Fields Forever. It was written primarily by Paul McCartney and credited to the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. The lyrics refer to Penny Lane, a street in Liverpool, and make mention of the sights and characters that McCartney recalled from his upbringing in the city.
The Beatles began recording Penny Lane in December 1966, intending it as a song for their album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Instead, after it was issued as a single to satisfy record company demand for a new release, the band adhered to their policy of omitting previously released singles from their albums. The song features numerous modulations that occur mid-verse and between its choruses. Session musician David Mason played a piccolo trumpet solo for its bridge section
Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:
Penny Lane was kind of nostalgic, but it was really [about] a place that John and I knew ... I'd get a bus to his house and I'd have to change at Penny Lane, or the same with him to me, so we often hung out at that terminus, like a roundabout. It was a place that we both knew, and so we both knew the things that turned up in the story

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0KX6X - Penny Lane is a song by the English rock band the Beatles that was released in February 1967 as a double A-side single with Strawberry Fields Forever. It was written primarily by Paul McCartney and credited to the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. The lyrics refer to Penny Lane, a street in Liverpool, and make mention of the sights and characters that McCartney recalled from his upbringing in the city.
The Beatles began recording Penny Lane in December 1966, intending it as a song for their album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Instead, after it was issued as a single to satisfy record company demand for a new release, the band adhered to their policy of omitting previously released singles from their albums. The song features numerous modulations that occur mid-verse and between its choruses. Session musician David Mason played a piccolo trumpet solo for its bridge section
Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:

We formed in 2012 with the original aim of transforming an area of wasteland behind Shipley Fire Station into a community food garden. Unfortunately due to due constraints over securing a lease for this site from Bradford Council, we are no longer able to pursue this project.
In 2015 we began working with Sustainable Saltaire to look after the Sunday School Garden in Caroline Street car park. In 2016 we developed two new edible growing sites: Plot at Platform 1 at Saltaire Station and the Japanese Edible Garden on Exhibition Road, supported by Shipley College. We also work with Saltaire Village Society to help look after the raised beds in the Wash House Garden on Caroline Street (edge of Edward Street and Amelia Street).

Charitable soup kitchens proliferated in nineteenth-century Europe and North America. Three soup kitchens operating in England between 1870 and 1910 are compared
two were Jewish soup kitchens, the other was an English (non-Jewish) charity. Institutional buildings are often analyzed using Foucault-derived models of control based on surveillance and punishment. Such models may not explain fully charities, their buildings, or their method of reform. Historical archaeology can show how charity that coerces or dehumanizes the poor is less likely to create lasting improvements in the behaviors it is seeking to reform than charity that adopts a more positive approach.
The Manchester Jewish Soup Kitchen
Documentary History
The Jewish soup kitchen in Manchester had its first meeting in November 1895 (Manchester Jewish Soup Kitchen 1912). The committee was formed by local rabbis
the women present formed a sub-committee to organize fund-raising. By 1904, half of the main committee was made up of women. The kitchen opened three times a week from Chanukah (i.e., in early 1896) until Passover. The committee adopted the name The Soup Kitchen for the Jewish Poor Manchester, after the London soup kitchen. In 1908 the name was changed to The Manchester Jewish Soup Kitchen.
The committee located a site on the corner of Exchange Street (now Empire Street) and Southall Street, opposite the northeast corner of Strangeways Prison, on the western side of the Jewish community. Plans were drawn up by architect Thomas Bushell. Fundraising for the new building included a penny-brick fund by which less well-off donors could sponsor a brick for the cost of one penny.
Michael Marks, the co-founder of department store Marks & Spencer and an active committee member, made a substantial donation in 1905 for funding tickets

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JY55B6 - On 22 May 2017, an Islamist extremist suicide bomber detonated a shrapnel-laden homemade bomb as people were leaving the Manchester Arena following a concert by American pop singer Ariana Grande.
Twenty-three people were killed, including the attacker, and 1,017 were injured, many of them children. Several hundred more suffered psychological trauma. The bomber was Salman Ramadan Abedi, a 22-year-old local man of Libyan ancestry. After initial suspicions of a terrorist network, police later said they believed Abedi had largely acted alone, but that others had been aware of his plans. The Islamic State claimed responsibility shortly after the attack.[3] In March 2020, the bomber's brother, Hashem Abedi, was found guilty of 22 counts of murder and attempting to murder 1,017 others, and was sentenced to life in prison.
The incident was the deadliest terrorist attack and the first suicide bombing in the United Kingdom since the 7 July 2005 London bombings

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JYYR48 - The streets of Manchester have recently gotten richer by a number of gorgeous street art pieces because of the Cities of Hope festival. Case Ma'Claim was one of the invited artists, and he created a stunning piece entitled Human Dignity is Inviolable. He worked with the charity Back on Track and decided to depict one of the people they support. The German graffiti artist employed his signature life-like imagery to create this amazingly realistic piece that sends a positive message that anyone can make their life better. Just like a man depicted in the mural, we all need to recollect for a moment, and reflect on our decisions and think about are plans before venturing onto a wonderful journey called life. And sometimes, in this world full of negativity and death, it is nice to be reminded that not everything is lost and that we can always get back on track when we fail.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M07AE6 - The Little Princess Trust is a UK charity that provides real hair wigs, free of charge, to children and young people, up to the age of 24, who have lost their hair as a result of cancer treatment or other illnesses.
The charity was originally set up in memory of five-year-old Hannah Tarplee who died as a result of cancer in June 2005. Hannah loved her hair so when she underwent treatment for a Wilms' tumour, the loss of her hair was especially traumatic. When Hannah died, her parents felt the most fitting tribute would be a charity dedicated to providing wigs, free of charge, to children who had lost their own hair due to cancer treatment and other conditions. The Little Princess Trust was born and the charity has since helped thousands of young people regain their confidence and identity by giving them a real hair wig.
Thanks to fundraising from its family of supporters, the Little Princess Trust has also committed more than ?20 million to projects focused on kinder and more effective treatments for childhood cancers.
The charity's headquarters are currently based at The Hannah Tarplee Building in Berrington Street, Hereford. Phil Brace is the chief executive officer and Wendy Tarplee-Morris, the mother of Hannah Tarplee, is the Director of Service & Impact.
The Little Princess Trust is a registered charity (1176160). Due to a demand for longer wigs, the charity is asking its supporters to donate hair lengths of 12 inches and above

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K16AW8 - Camden Collective is a registered charity offering free hot-desking space and subsidised offices for creative start-ups in the heart of Camden Town. We take on temporary leases of empty building and bring them back to life, filling them with an ever-growing community of creative young people. We give start-ups the chance to take risks, experiment, and grow in a low-cost way.
The Collective journey started 10 years ago. Since 2009, it has occupied 18 spaces and has introduced various projects, such as: pop-up shops, free courses, accelerators, commissioning public realm projects, free events, and the Camden Create Festival. We have an evolving model, but our community of like-minded individuals are at the heart of what we do, as well as the entrepreneurs and stakeholders who help us to grow and support our next exciting stages of development.
Camden Collective is run by Camden Town Unlimited, the Business Improvement District for Camden Town. In the past, we relied on grants and raising revenue to keep up our activities. Now we're fully self-sufficient, with income from lockable offices paying for free hot-desking, running costs of the project, and any renovations needed to maintain our hub, or create new ones
Camden Collective is just one of Camden Town Unlimited's forward-thinking projects. We're the same team that's behind the Camden Highline
a project transforming the disused railway between Camden Town and King's Cross, and Euston Town
a business improvement district with a focus on air quality, transport and identity. We're also the co-founders of Alternative Camden
a new type of innovation district for Camden.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2J92PFR - Victory Over Blindness is a bronze sculpture in Manchester, England, by Johanna Domke-Guyot. It is on Piccadilly Approach outside the main entrance of Manchester Piccadilly station and was commissioned to commemorate the centenary of the First World War.
The sculpture depicts seven blind figures guiding each other and walking together
their likeness are based upon real veterans who all suffered blindness as a result of action on the frontline. Unusually a plinth is not used and the figures are situated at eye level to engage passers-by. It was commissioned by the Blind Veterans UK and was unveiled in October 2018. It is believed to be the only memorial to depict those wounded in the First World War.
The sculpture was first created to mark the centenary of the Blind Veterans UK charity in 2015 and which now sits at the charity's Llandudno rehabilitation and training centre. The sculpture depicts seven life-sized figures guiding one another. It was inspired by a photograph the sculptor saw of World War I veterans, blinded in combat, leading one another from the front. Whereas statues or sculptures of lifelike individuals are generally placed on plinths, it was decided the sculpture should be situated on the ground and at eye level to engage passers-by and to highlight the notion that the sacrifices of those on the frontline in World War I should not be forgotten.
The sculptor, Johanna Domke-Guyot, stated that People will be able to touch them, I want it to become a people's piece. The seven figures are all based upon World War I veterans who all suffered blindness as a result of action on the frontline and each figure depicts a similar likeness to the veterans.
The sculpture was well-received with it being described as moving for its subject matter and striking for its interaction with passers-by at eye level

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AAT36J - The Maundy ceremony dates back to the Middle Ages, when the monarch gave coins to the poor. In 1989, the Maundy Ceremony was held in St Phillip's Cathedral in Birmingham. This booklet is for the Order of Service for the Maundy distribution ceremony - more info at http://www.bmagic.org.uk/objects/2003.0192.16
Royal Maundy is a religious service in the Church of England held on Maundy Thursday, the day before Good Friday. At the service, the British monarch or a royal official ceremonially distributes small silver coins known as Maundy money (legally, the King's Maundy money) as symbolic alms to elderly recipients. The coins are technically legal tender, but typically do not circulate due to their silver content and numismatic value. A small sum of ordinary money is also given in lieu of gifts of clothing and food that the sovereign once bestowed on Maundy recipients.
The name Maundy and the ceremony itself derive from an instruction, or mandatum, of Jesus Christ at the Last Supper that his followers should love one another. In the Middle Ages, English monarchs washed the feet of beggars in imitation of Jesus, and presented gifts and money to the poor. Over time, additional money was substituted for the clothing and other items that had once been distributed. Beginning in 1699 the monarch did not attend the service, sending an official in his place. The custom of royal representatives washing the feet of beggars did not survive the 18th century.
Maundy money is struck in denominations of one penny, two pence, three pence, and four pence. Until the 18th century the coins given were from the circulating coinage, and it was not until the latter half of the century that the four Maundy coins developed as distinct, noncirculating pieces. The obverse design of the coins features the reigning monarch. The reverse, with a crowned numeral enclosed by a wreath, derives from a design first used during the reign of King William III and Queen Mary II,

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy T3RF44 - Walton Lea Walled Garden is a walled garden in Warrington, Cheshire, England. The garden is owned by Warrington Borough Council and managed by the Walton Lea Project.
The garden was created circa 1864 as the kitchen garden to the Walton Lea mansion house. It was designed by Edward Walters and built by George Crosfield, the eldest son of soap manufacturing pioneer Joseph Crosfield. In the early 1900s the house was bought by the Armitage family. In 1923 it was bought by the Greenall family, owners of nearby Walton Hall. The Greenall and Crosfield families were political rivals and in 1925 the Greenalls demolished the mansion leaving only the garden, cottages and associated buildings. The estate also included a fernery and rose garden that are no longer in existence. The walled garden later passed to Warrington Borough Council. It is in now managed by the Walton Lea project to benefit the community and people with disabilities.
The garden has an area of one acre with intact walls. The land slopes from the south-facing wall toward the north-facing wall.
The garden is open to the public daily. Fruit and vegetables from the garden are on sale. The garden provides work opportunities for people with disabilities

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3XNE9 - A credit union is a member-owned nonprofit cooperative financial institution.
Credit unions may offer financial services as commercial banks such as share accounts (savings accounts), share draft accounts (cheque accounts), credit cards, credit, share term certificates (certificates of deposit), and online banking. Normally, only a member of a credit union may deposit or borrow money. In several African countries, credit unions are commonly referred to as SACCOs (Savings and Credit Co-Operatives).
Worldwide, credit union systems vary significantly in their total assets and average institution asset size, ranging from volunteer operations with a handful of members to institutions with hundreds of thousands of members and assets worth billions of US dollars. In 2018, the number of members in credit unions worldwide was 375 million, with over 100 million members having been added since 2016.
Leading up to the financial crisis of 2007?2008, commercial banks engaged in approximately five times more subprime lending relative to credit unions and were two and a half times more likely to fail during the crisis. American credit unions more than doubled lending to small businesses between 2008 and 2016, from $30 billion to $60 billion, while lending to small businesses overall during the same period declined by around $100 billion. In the US, public trust in credit unions stands at 60%, compared to 30% for big banks. Furthermore, small businesses are 80% more likely to be satisfied by a credit union than with a big bank.
Natural-person credit unions (also called retail credit unions or consumer credit unions) serve individuals, as distinguished from corporate credit unions, which serve other credit unions

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2C9E2T7 - The Museum of Somerset is located in the 12th-century great hall of Taunton Castle, in Taunton in the county of Somerset, England. The museum is run by South West Heritage Trust, an independent charity and includes objects initially collected by the Somerset Archaeological and Natural History Society who own the castle.
Until 2008 the museum was known as the Somerset County Museum. Heritage Lottery Fund support was obtained to improve the museum, and the new museum reopened at the end of September 2011.
Exhibits include the Frome Hoard, the Low Ham Roman Mosaic, the bronze-age South Cadbury shield and a range of other objects relating to the history of the county.
In 1874 the castle was bought by the Somerset Archaeological and Natural History Society and between 1899 and 1900 the Great Hall was repaired and refitted as their chief museum space. In 1908-9 the Adam Library was created to house the society's growing collection of books. The society now leases it to Somerset County Council to house the Museum of Somerset. A substantial proportion of the items held by the Museum were originally collected by the Society.
In October 2007, plans for a ?6.5 million improvement to the museum and the castle were submitted by Somerset County Council to the Heritage Lottery Fund. It closed to the public on 18 April 2008 for a two-year refit, and reopened as the Museum of Somerset on 29 September 2011. Central to the new museum is the Tree of Somerset, a sculpture carved from oak from the Quantock Hills, which depicts events from Somerset's history

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RG992J - The UK homeless charity Shelter put the 2017 figure for the whole of the UK's homeless at 300,000. Recorded deaths among rough sleepers and those in temporary accommodation more than doubled in the five years to 2018. Homeless people die much younger than the general population, research by the Office for National Statistics shows. Homeless men die on average aged 44 while homeless women die on average aged 42. Homeless deaths have been rising stradily in the five years to 2018. Suicide, drug and alcohol abuse are the most common causes of death among homeless people. Jon Sparkes of Crisis urged the government to put causes of homelessness right, like building the number of social homes we need and making sure our welfare system is there to support people when they fall on hard times. The charity, Crisis attributes rising homelessness to a shortage of social housing, housing benefits not covering private rents and there not being homeless prevention schemes for people leaving care. Crisis wants the government to change polixy.
Crisis estimates there are roughly 12,300 rough sleepers in the UK and also 12,000 people sleeping in sheds, bins, cars, tents and night busses.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RG996J - The UK homeless charity Shelter put the 2017 figure for the whole of the UK's homeless at 300,000. Recorded deaths among rough sleepers and those in temporary accommodation more than doubled in the five years to 2018. Homeless people die much younger than the general population, research by the Office for National Statistics shows. Homeless men die on average aged 44 while homeless women die on average aged 42. Homeless deaths have been rising stradily in the five years to 2018. Suicide, drug and alcohol abuse are the most common causes of death among homeless people. Jon Sparkes of Crisis urged the government to put causes of homelessness right, like building the number of social homes we need and making sure our welfare system is there to support people when they fall on hard times. The charity, Crisis attributes rising homelessness to a shortage of social housing, housing benefits not covering private rents and there not being homeless prevention schemes for people leaving care. Crisis wants the government to change polixy.
Crisis estimates there are roughly 12,300 rough sleepers in the UK and also 12,000 people sleeping in sheds, bins, cars, tents and night busses.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RDAWB5 - Akt (stylised as akt and legally known as The Albert Kennedy Trust) is a voluntary organisation based in England, created in 1989 to serve lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQ+) young people who are homeless or living in a hostile environment. It started in Greater Manchester in 1989 and opened in London in 1996, and expanded to Newcastle in 2013, Newcastle upon Tyne and Bristol.
History
The charity is named after Albert Kennedy (31 January 1973 ? 30 April 1989), a 16-year-old Social Services care leaver from Manchester who was gay. Kennedy died after falling from the top of Chorlton Street multi-storey car park. Despite an inquest the circumstances of his death remain unclear. The official version is that he died from misadventure.
Kennedy had experienced a great deal of homophobia during his life. Manchester's gay community was moved into action by the Trust's founder patron Cath Hall. Cath Hall was a straight foster carer who saw the need for an organisation to be set up to support young lesbian, gay, bi and trans people who were facing homelessness because of rejection at home. She had observed that Kennedy's case was not isolated, and that many other LGBTQ+ young people in and out of the foster care system were struggling with the effects of homophobia. Hall described the founding of the trust as an emotional response, an angry response, to what was going on.
As a result, the Albert Kennedy Trust was formed, officially becoming a Trust in 1990.
In 2019 the Albert Kennedy Trust rebranded as akt.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RDAWNP - The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (SPI), also called Order of Perpetual Indulgence (OPI), is a charitable, protest, and street performance movement that uses drag and religious imagery to satirize issues of sex, gender, and morality (particularly Christian perspectives on these topics) and fundraise for charity. In 1979, a small group of gay men in San Francisco began wearing the attire of Catholic nuns in visible situations using camp to promote various social and political causes in the Castro District.
From the original organization in San Francisco, the Sisters have grown throughout the U.S., Canada, Australia, Europe, and South America, and are now an international network of autonomous orders. These orders are mostly registered as non-profit charity organizations that raise money for AIDS, LGBT-related causes, and mainstream community service organizations, while promoting safer sex and educating others about the harmful effects of drug use and other high risk behaviors. They have also protested many Christian, and specifically Catholic, events perceived as anti-LGBT, including the visit of Pope John Paul II to the United States.
Throughout the movement's history there have been a number of conflicts with Christian communities. The group has been characterized by some Catholics (such as the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights) as anti-Catholic and a hate-group for impersonating and mocking Catholic practices and beliefs, including religious sisters

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy P8DCT4 - The William Nuttall Cottage Homes are a good example of a planned development by a charitable benefactor, the sweet manufacturer William Nuttall. He set up a trust to provide 'cottage homes for aged spinsters' and the William Nuttall Trust purchased land in Bennetthorpe from the council on which to build these homes. The almshouses were erected in 1930, until then the area between Bennetthorpe and the racecourse had been relatively undeveloped.
The cottage homes were laid out in the pattern of traditional almshouses of standard size set in communal grounds. The buildings comprise a symmetrical group of 24 two storey homes at the centre of which is a linked terrace of eight dwellings around a central archway. To each side are four pairs of homes, each advancing forwards. The buildings are of red engineering brick with stone and concrete dressings and have either 'Rosemary' plain clay tile or Westmoreland slate roofs. The buildings are not identical but have common features and display typical detailing and materials of the inter-war period. The whole site was bounded by a low brick wall with a central vehicular access and symmetrical pedestrian side access.
The William Nuttall Cottage Homes development remains relatively unchanged and continues to have the use for which it was originally intended. Within the conservation area there are no listed structures but all the buildings are considered to be key unlisted buildings.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RM1TG8 - The Society of Merchant Venturers is a charitable organisation in the English city of Bristol.
The society can be traced back to a 13th century guild which funded the voyage of John Cabot to Canada that marked the origins of the British Empire. The society its first Royal Charter in 1552 and for centuries had almost been synonymous with the government of Bristol, especially Bristol Harbour. In recent times, the society's activities have centred on charitable agendas.
The Society played a part in the development of Bristol, including the building of Clifton Suspension Bridge and the Great Western Railway. It also influenced the development of educational institutions in Greater Bristol, including University of Bristol, University of the West of England, University of Bath, City of Bristol College, Colston's Girls' School and Merchants' Academy.
A Guild of Merchants was founded in Bristol by the 13th century, and swiftly became active in civic life. It funded John Cabot's voyage of discovery to Newfoundland in 1497. The society in its current form was established by a 1552 Royal Charter from Edward VI granting the society a monopoly on Bristol's sea trade. The society remained in effective control of Bristol's harbour until 1809. Further charters were granted by Charles I, Charles II and Elizabeth II. The society's members were active in the English colonisation of North America, helping to establish the Bristol's Hope and Cuper's Cove settlements in Newfoundland.
In 1694, the Merchant Venturers Society petitioned parliament against the monopoly held by the Royal African Company in the slave trade, leading to the ending of this monopoly in 1698. During the eighteenth century one quarter of the individual members of the Society were to be directly involved in the slave trade with such prominent Bristol slave traders as Michael Becher, John Duckenfield, and Isaac Hobhouse

According to the inscription, the upper floor was used for parochial meetings and dispensing charity bread, and it continues to serve as a meeting place for the Parish Council. The plaque also references the village stocks, which were formerly located nearby next to the Pinnacle, illustrating historic systems of local justice and governance.
The plaque is part of Martock's local heritage marking scheme and highlights the continuity of civic life in the village from the early modern period through to the present day. The blue enamelled sign, fixed to stonework, is typical of locally commissioned heritage plaques rather than national English Heritage markers.
The image is suitable for editorial use relating to Somerset local history, English market towns, heritage interpretation, parish governance, and historic civic buildings.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNR2 - This image shows a printed notice displayed on the door of a charity shop in the village of Martock, Somerset, clearly stating We do not accept any electrical items. The sign is mounted behind glass within a green-painted wooden door, with the heading Martock Charity Shop visible at the top of the notice.
Such signage reflects common safety and compliance requirements faced by UK charity shops, particularly around the acceptance of second-hand electrical goods, which can pose risks related to fire safety, product liability, and PAT testing regulations. Many small, volunteer-run charity shops choose not to accept electrical donations due to the cost and responsibility of testing and certification.
Images like this are frequently used to illustrate themes including charity retail, donation restrictions, health and safety, voluntary sector operations, and the realities of running community-based shops in rural English villages. The straightforward, utilitarian design of the notice emphasises clarity and compliance over branding, a typical feature of small local charities.
The photograph is suitable for editorial use in contexts relating to UK charity shops, high street change, community volunteering, retail regulation, and consumer safety awareness.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DDXKNX - LGBT Warrington is organised by LGBT members who are all volunteers. The group has built great relationships with partners, which include the Council, police, health and local businesses.
They are here to help and welcome anyone who would like to join us to stamp out the stigma people may have on the LGBT community.
The group offers support to those who need it on a 1-2-1 basis and is treated with great confidentiality, and point people in the right direction of the services they require.
They meet throughout the year mainly to have a brew and chat about life in general, to meet and make new friends, and for those who require extra support, to help by signposting to relevant services in Warrington. We also at times hold activities such as bowling, theatre trips, quizzes and games.
They also have nights out in the town centre at Cotton Mill or Show Bar and take part with events they are holding, or even have the odd night out to Manchester to Canal Street or to the theatre.
During the year they are also visited by guest speakers.
They welcome visitors and potential new members whatever their sexuality, though is open to 18+ only.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCYHEN - A cupcake (also British English: fairy cake
Hiberno-English: bun
Australian English: fairy cake or patty cake) is a small cake designed to serve one person, which may be baked in a small thin paper or aluminum cup. As with larger cakes, icing and other cake decorations such as fruit and candy may be applied.
The earliest extant description of what is now often called a cupcake was in 1796, when a recipe for a light cake to bake in small cups was written in American Cookery by Amelia Simmons. The earliest extant documentation of the term cupcake itself was in Seventy-five Receipts for Pastry, Cakes, and Sweetmeats in 1828 in Eliza Leslie's Receipts cookbook.
In the early 19th century, there were two different uses for the term cup cake or cupcake. In previous centuries, before muffin tins were widely available, the cakes were often baked in individual pottery cups, ramekins, or molds and took their name from the cups they were baked in. This is the use of the name that has remained, and the name of cupcake is now given to any small, round cake that is about the size of a teacup. While English fairy cakes vary in size more than American cupcake, they are traditionally smaller and are rarely topped with elaborate icing.
The other kind of cup cake referred to a cake whose ingredients were measured by volume, using a standard-sized cup, instead of being weighed. Recipes whose ingredients were measured using a standard-sized cup could also be baked in cups
however, they were more commonly baked in tins as layers or loaves. In later years, when the use of volume measurements was firmly established in home kitchens, these recipes became known as 1234 cakes or quarter cakes, so called because they are made up of four ingredients: one cup of butter, two cups of sugar, three cups of flour, and four eggs. They are plain yellow cakes, somewhat less rich and less expensive than pound cake, due to using about half as much butter and eggs compared to pound cake.

The Missionaries of Charity in Liverpool offer hospitality to the homeless community. Volunteers assist the work of the Missionaries of Charity in giving out food. After the clients finish their food they often have another cup of tea and a cake and then start to disperse. The volunteers then wash up the dishes, sweep and mop the floor and clean the tables. Some volunteers go around the dining-room and pour out tea for people. On occasion a client may be drunk and become somewhat agitated
on these occasions the nuns step in and sort out the situation. Whilst it can be quite daunting going into the Missionaries of Charity ?soup-kitchen' at first, volunteers often say they become more confident as the weeks go on, and look forward to returning week after week.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4725563198 - 'Sir William Hillary came to live on the Isle of Man in 1808. Being aware of the treacherous nature of the Irish Sea, with many ships being wrecked around the Manx coast, he drew up plans for a national lifeboat service manned by trained crews. Initially he received little response from the Admiralty but on appealing to the more philanthropic members of London society, the plans were adopted with the help of two members of parliament - Thomas Wilson and George Hibbert - the National Institution for the Preservation of Life from Shipwreck was founded in 1824.
Thirty years later the title changed to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and the first of the new lifeboats to be built was stationed at Douglas in recognition of the work of Sir William.
The RNLI operates 444 lifeboats (332 are on station, 112 are in the relief fleet), from 235 lifeboat stations around the coasts of Great Britain, Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands.
In 2009, the RNLI Lifeguards service was also expanded to cover over 140 beaches. RNLI lifeguards are paid by the appropriate town or city council, while the RNLI provides their equipment and training. In contrast, most lifeboat crew members are unpaid volunteers, most receive a small hourly reimbursement for the duration of a tasking which goes towards lost work pay and so on.
The RNLI is funded by voluntary donations and legacies and has an annual budget of around \u00a3139 million. Much of this is raised by volunteers like Doreen and Margaret and go towards the rescue of around 21 people each day.
If you see one of their distinctive lifeboat shaped collecting boxes, drop in a donation and do your bit!

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4639706870 - 'This fallow deer buck had just been disturbed from grazing at Dunham Massey. Only the males have antlers. A significant number of the fallow in the Forest of Dean and in Epping Forest are of the black variety, very unlike this one, the general norm. One particularly interesting population is that based in the Mortimer Forest on the English/Welsh border where a significant part of the population have long hair with distinct ear tufts and longer body hair.
Dunham Park covers an area of nearly 193 acres. It's part of the Dunham Park Estate, run by the National Trust (NT). The park is mostly \u201cpasture-woodland or park-woodland\u201d and has been since the Middle Ages.
Many of the oak trees, which make up the larger part of the woodland, date back to the 17th century. Dunham Park is the only place in the northwest of England with such a concentration of old trees, and one of only a few remaining in England, making it a site of national importance. The park supports a range of animals, including fallow deer like this one and over 500 species of insect.
Dunham Massey has many grade II listed buildings. Among the most striking is the 18th century sandstone obelisk at the end of the north vista from Dunham Massey Hall, close to where this image was taken. Tradition has it that it marks the burial site of a race horse.
There are a number of other listed structures close by in the grounds of Dunham Massey Hall, including the 1720 wellhouse that supplied water to the hall until the 1860s, and the early 18th century ornamental sundial in front of the hall, depicting a black slave clad in leaves, carrying the sundial above his head. A bit of a throwback to a less enlightened age.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CEY9DN - Northwich Salt Museum Railway wagon with a dramatic sky.
The area around Northwich has been exploited for its salt pans since Roman times, when the settlement was known as Condate. The town has been severely affected by salt mining with subsidence historically being a large problem. However, recent investment in mine stabilisation is set to change the town with the 'Northwich Vision' being a plan for future development work.
During the 19th century it became uneconomical to mine for the salt. Instead hot water was pumped through the mines, which dissolved the salt. The resultant brine was pumped out and the salt extracted from the brine. This technique weakened the mines and led to land subsidence as they collapsed. Subsidence affected the town and the surrounding landscape.
For example collapses in 1880 formed Witton Flash as the River Weaver flowed into a huge hole caused by subsidence. Subsidence also allegedly accounts for many old timber-framed houses in the town centre, which were better able to withstand the movement of the ground.
Some houses were built on a base of steel girders which could be jacked up to level the house with each change in the underlying ground. The town's historical link with the salt industry is celebrated in its Museum which is today located in the town's old workhouse.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K69A4H - Gloucester Services are a pair of Motorway Service Areas (MSA) serving the northbound and southbound carriageways of the M5 between Junction 11A and Junction 12, near Whaddon, Gloucester. It specialises in selling artisanal food, and does not offer outlets for popular chain food brands.
Construction of the northbound services began in early 2013, and they officially opened on 7 May 2014. Construction of the southbound services commenced in March 2014 and they opened on 19 May 2015
In September 2009, the independent motorway services operator Westmorland Motorway Services Ltd, jointly with a local charitable trust, Gloucestershire Gateway Trust, submitted plans for a service area at Matson for public consultation. The plans were for a business operated in a similar manner to Tebay Services on the M6 in Cumbria, with much of the food and produce on sale being sourced from local suppliers
The operator promised not to host chain coffee shops, fast-food outlets, or video and gambling machines
The service area supports the Gloucestershire Gateway Trust in assisting the business to provide good jobs for more deprived areas of Gloucester, and to support local social regeneration schemes.
The 2019 Motorway Services User Survey found that Gloucester's southbound side was in the top five motorway services in the UK for customer satisfaction
The District Council was informed at the end of February 2011 that Roadchef and Welcome Break (the operators of Strensham and Michaelwood service stations) had applied to the High Court for a judicial review of the Council's decision to grant planning permission. Joined in the action were CAMSA and the Parish Councils of Brookthorpe-with-Whaddon and Harescombe. The case was heard in the High Court in Birmingham on 17 and 18 January 2012. By 8 February 2012, the High Court had dismissed all challenges to the planning application
One of the factors that helped the development gain planning permission was the inclusion of a green roof

Prominent signage across the fascia clearly identifies the charity and its role in providing hospice and palliative care services.
Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice Care is a well-established regional charity supporting people with advanced illness, as well as their families and carers, across parts of Surrey and Hampshire. Charity shops such as this one play a vital role in funding hospice services, relying on donations, volunteers, and local community support.
The image captures a typical British high-street charity shop scene, reflecting the importance of voluntary sector retail in town centres and the everyday visibility of hospice fundraising within local communities. The photograph is suitable for editorial and commercial uses relating to UK charities, hospice care, community fundraising, volunteering, and the role of charity retail in sustaining healthcare services.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0KXC8 - Penny Lane is a song by the English rock band the Beatles that was released in February 1967 as a double A-side single with Strawberry Fields Forever. It was written primarily by Paul McCartney and credited to the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. The lyrics refer to Penny Lane, a street in Liverpool, and make mention of the sights and characters that McCartney recalled from his upbringing in the city.
The Beatles began recording Penny Lane in December 1966, intending it as a song for their album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Instead, after it was issued as a single to satisfy record company demand for a new release, the band adhered to their policy of omitting previously released singles from their albums. The song features numerous modulations that occur mid-verse and between its choruses. Session musician David Mason played a piccolo trumpet solo for its bridge section
Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:
Penny Lane was kind of nostalgic, but it was really [about] a place that John and I knew ... I'd get a bus to his house and I'd have to change at Penny Lane, or the same with him to me, so we often hung out at that terminus, like a roundabout.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RG98A8 - Band on the Wall is a live music venue in the Northern Quarter of Manchester, England.
The building dates back to around 1862 when a local brewery, the McKenna Brothers, built it as the flagship pub of their operation. It was called the George and Dragon
the first licence on the site was granted to Elizabeth March in 1803. No-one knows when music started to be played at the venue but market pubs were well known for their musical connections, and the nearby Smithfield Markets and textile factories ensured that this was a bustling area with many musicians and buskers. Manchester was then at its height as the first industrial city at the forefront of the Industrial Revolution.
The 'Band on the Wall' was a nickname from the 1930s when the landlord of the time Ernie Tyson placed a stage high on the far wall of the pub on which the musicians played. A regular band of two accordions, piano, drums, a singer and occasionally a saxophone would play.
In 1975 local jazz musician Steve Morris and his business partner Frank Cusick bought the George & Dragon with the idea of turning it into a jazz club
a conversation with Johnny Roadhouse convinced them to name it the Band on the Wall. Jazz musicians from the local area as well as international artist played at the club. The late 1970s saw the emergence of a new sound, punk, and it was at the Band on the Wall that many of the Manchester punk bands played
Band on the Wall is operated by Inner City Music Ltd, a registered charity. The organisation was awarded ?3.2 million in July 2007, in combined awards by Arts Council England and the Heritage Lottery Fund as part of a ?4 million project to transform the venue into a 21st-century centre for music.
The Band on the Wall was refurbished before reopening on 25 September 2009 with a performance by the venue's patrons Julian Joseph and Mica Paris
On 18 June 2018, Inner City Music Ltd announced that Arts Council England had approved ?1.65 million stage two Capital funding

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HD9C - Leith is a suburb of Edinburgh where it meets the sea. It lies on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, Lothian, Scotland UK. Leith had electric street lighting from 1890, and electric trams from 1905 (only Blackpool was earlier in the UK). the trams are returning at great cost and more changes have improved teh Leith waterfront in recent years.
The Malmaison Hotel, beside the entrance to Leith Docks, at the Shore, Leith, shown here was formerly a sailors' home. The Sailors' Home used to provide accommodation for sailors whose ships were in port. The Home contained comfortable rooms for each rank, a canteen, a low cost clothing shop, recreational rooms and a chapel.
It was an innovation in social care at a time when many workers lived in overcrowded slums. The angel in the stonework above the door was an emblem for the seamen's mission. Much investment has been made to improve the area from The City of Edinburgh District Council, Forth Ports Authority and the Water of Leith Conservation Trust.
The statue to the left is of Sandy Irvine Robertson OBE, wine merchant, charity promoter, founder of Scottish Business Achievement Awards, once wrote of as one of those people who made life worth living. A bear of a man, standing six and a half feet tall, he had a heart the size of Scotland. He was mischievous, often outrageous, but never unkind, and those of us privileged to have known his friendship will be eternally grateful for it. Praise indeed.
Leith is known for its port and red wine imports and I assume he was linked to 'Irvine Robertson Wines' who are located just up the road. After his premature death (Born: 11 August, 1942, in Stirling Died: 20 June, 1999, aged 56), his friends commissioned a bronze statue on the waterfront at Leith. It was sculpted by Lucy Poett. She studied under Cubilt Bevis at The Heatherley School of Art in London and with the late Scott Sutherland RSA in Dundee.
