The History Society’s “Our Community, Our History” project is looking at the diverse cuisine that has come into the area since the 1940’s. We are interested in talking to people from all sections of the community about the food they have grown up with, and their thoughts on food from other cultures. As part of this we took the Girls In Action group from St Paul’s Trust to the recently opened Al Barakah Lebanese Bakery (0121 440 0312) on Mary Street.

The Government has devised a new scheme called the Future Jobs Fund. This is aimed mainly at giving younger workers a start in getting on to the job ladder. The scheme creates jobs, which last 26 weeks and are funded by the Government. Hopefully, the new jobs give people some up to date on the job training, references from an employer (our Trust), and good advice from all at their departments! For some people it may be their first job, and others it will be the first for a fairly long time.
