Quotes

...donating a pound to dress down' or a few pence for a cake really adds up and as a result we have been able to help 12 local charities in 12 months. "The council also encourages its staff to take part in the Pennies from Heaven scheme. This sees current and retired employees donate the odd pennies from their take home pay and pension to the council's chosen charities of Myton Hospice and the . In 2012 the pennies raised totalled over 27,800Since joining the scheme in 2006 county council staff and pensioners have raised over 175,500 (including Gift Aid) and have also been awarded a gold award as 25 per cent of staff are now signed up to donate their pennies. The council was the first local authority to achieve this award and one of only 15 employers to receive it nationally, joining the likes of the Bank of England and Barclays Bank."
"We are particularly delighted as this has enormous potential to further grow the town’s evening economy, making our fabulous restaurants, bars and theatres far more accessible."
"This funding will be vital in allowing them to move along, hopefully at pace. Getting major developments off the ground in these economic times is extremely difficult and we believe this funding will play a vital role in unlocking certain elements and making them happen."
" It also needs checks and balances. There needs to be more influence than just chairs of scrutiny."
