Unitary Authorities Of England
The unitary authorities of England are those local authorities which are responsible for the provision of all local government services within a district. They are constituted under the Local Government Act 1992, which amended the Local Government Act 1972 to allow the existence of counties that do not have multiple districts. They typically allow large towns to have separate local authorities from the less urbanised parts of their counties and originally provided a single authority for small counties where division into districts would be impractical. However, the UK government has more recently proposed the formation of much larger unitary authorities, including a single authority for North Yorkshire, the largest non-metropolitan county in England, at present divided into seven districts. Unitary authorities do not cover all of England. Most were established during the 1990s, though further tranches were created in 2009 and 2019–21. Unitary authorities have the powers and ...

Sandbach
Sandbach (pronounced ) is the name of a historic market town and a civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire East, Cheshire, England. The civil parish contains four settlements: Sandbach itself as the largest, Elworth, Ettiley Heath and Wheelock. Sandbach is perhaps best known as the original home of Foden and ERF lorries, though neither company now exists in the town; twelve-times National Brass Band Championship winners Foden's Band; the ancient Saxon Sandbach Crosses; and Sandbach services on the M6 motorway. History Known as Sanbec in 1086, Sondbache (also Sondebache) in 1260, and Sandbitch in the 17th–18th centuries, Sandbach derives its name from the Anglo-Saxon ''sand bæce'', which can mean "sand stream" or "sand valley". The modern German word ''Bach'', with a similar origin as ''bæce'', means "brook"; thus, the meaning of Sandbach can be understood correctly in German. In Germany, there are two places and several small waterways of that name, see Ger ...

Leader And Cabinet Executives
Leadership, both as a research area and as a practical skill, encompasses the ability of an individual, group or organization to "lead", influence or guide other individuals, teams, or entire organizations. The word "leadership" often gets viewed as a contested term. Specialist literature debates various viewpoints on the concept, sometimes contrasting Eastern and Western approaches to leadership, and also (within the West) North American versus European approaches. U.S. academic environments define leadership as "a process of social influence in which a person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common and ethical task". Basically, leadership can be defined as an influential power-relationship in which the power of one party (the "leader") promotes movement/change in others (the "followers"). Some have challenged the more traditional managerial views of leadership (which portray leadership as something possessed or owned by one individual due ...

Sandbach Town Hall
Sandbach Town Hall is a municipal building in the High Street in Sandbach, Cheshire, England. The structure, which is the meeting place of Sandbach Town Council, is a Grade II listed building. History The first town hall in Sandbach was a medieval structure located in the Market Square. On the High Street side, it was arcaded on the ground floor so that markets could be held, while on the Market Square side it had a village lock-up at one end and shops at the other end; there was an assembly hall on the first floor. The lawyer and author, Thomas Hughes, served as a judge at county court hearings in the building. The town hall was re-built on the same site in 1888; it was arranged with shops and offices on the ground floor and an assembly hall on the first floor but only survived three years before being demolished in 1891. The site for the current town hall, further to the northwest along the High Street, was donated by the lord of the manor, Lord Crewe: it had been occupied b ...

Crewe Municipal Buildings
Crewe Municipal Buildings is a municipal building in Earle Street, Crewe, Cheshire, England. The buildings, which formed the headquarters of Crewe and Nantwich Borough Council, are Grade II listed. History After significant industrial growth, largely following the construction of the railway station which had opened in 1837, Crewe became a municipal borough in 1877. In this context, civic leaders decided to procure municipal buildings: the site chosen on the north side of Earle Street had been occupied by a row of commercial properties with an old corn exchange located behind them. Following a design competition, which was initiated in May 1902, Henry Hare was selected as the preferred architect. The foundation stone for the new building was laid by the mayor, James Henry Moore, on 3 September 1903. It was designed in the Baroque style, built by Robert Neil and Sons of Manchester at a cost of around £20,000 and was officially opened on 19 July 1905. The design involved a symmet ...

Congleton (borough)
Congleton was, from 1974 to 2009, a local government district with borough status in Cheshire, England. It included the towns of Congleton, Alsager, Middlewich and Sandbach. The headquarters of the borough council were located in Sandbach. History The borough was formed on 1 April 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972 by the merger of the former borough of Congleton, the urban districts of Alsager, Middlewich and Sandbach, and the Congleton Rural District. The new district was awarded borough status from its creation, allowing the chairman of the council to take the title of mayor. In 2006 the Department for Communities and Local Government considered reorganising Cheshire's administrative structure as part of the 2009 structural changes to local government in England. The decision to merge the boroughs of Congleton, Macclesfield, and Crewe and Nantwich to create a single unitary authority was announced on 25 July 2007, following a consultation period in which a proposa ...

Local Education Authority
Local education authorities (LEAs) were local councils in England that are responsible for education within their jurisdiction. The term was used to identify which council (district or county) is locally responsible for education in a system with several layers of local government. Local education authorities were not usually ad hoc or standalone authorities, although the former Inner London Education Authority was one example of this. Responsible local authority England has several tiers of local government and the relevant local authority varies. Within Greater London the 32 London borough councils and the Common Council of the City of London are the local authorities responsible for education; in the metropolitan counties it is the 36 metropolitan borough councils; and in the non-metropolitan counties it is the 27 county councils or, where there is no county council, the councils of the 55 unitary authorities. The Council of the Isles of Scilly is an education authority. Sinc ...
