After launching Every Church Counts, we're highlighting each of our key actions needed to help save the UK's churches. 4: On the visitor map The UK’s local churches form some of our most important heritage. They contain the UK’s largest collection of art, sculpture and stained glass. There are thousands of amazing churches in wonderful locations. The sheer variety, beauty and history of the UK’s churches allows UK and overseas visitors to learn more about our history and culture. Making more of their history and heritage can transform the future of the UK’s local churches and boost local jobs. Tourism is one of the most important sectors in the UK economy. In 2021, the value of day visits to heritage sites in England was £5.5 billion. What needs to be done ⬇️ The UK Government’s Department for Culture, Media and Sport, working with the main national tourism organisations, should commission a national study into how to make more of the unrivalled heritage of the UK’s churches. #EveryChurchCounts #NationalChurchesTrust

Black history is Alberta history, and Canadian history. #DYK - The Last Best West | Historica Canada. “At the turn of the century, many Black families in Oklahoma wanted to escape the state’s racial violence and discrimination for a new start in Canada’s ‘Last Best West.’ The Canadian government, however, didn’t want them to settle in those vast, fertile western provinces. To stem the tide of Black immigration, the government began a secret campaign of disinformation. Uncovering this deception from 1911 can help us think more critically about the media we consume today.” #BHM #BHM2024

URBAN SPRAWL Queen Elizabeth drew a three-mile ring around London to prohibit development of land not already built on. In 1875, Octavia Hill, co-founder of the National Trust, coined the term Green Belt, to promote the preservation of an area of countryside around the capital. The 1947 Town & Country Planning Act legally enshrined the Green Belt and its purpose: to check urban sprawl and protect the countryside from urbanisation. In 1955, it was rolled out nationally. Today, there are fourteen of these rings around English cities. The Green Belt remains popular among voters with a clear majority favouring strict limits on planning, but it’s also consistently cited as a cause of our failure to build more homes. It is estimated that if just 2% of the Green Belt around the five biggest cities were developed, it would be possible to build two million homes within half-a-mile of railway stations.

What a great picture and message.

Philip Swanson and I discuss: What are "third places"? Do Orthodox churches (many Catholic parishes apply too) fulfill sociologist Ray Oldenberg's 8 criteria for "third places"? We also touch on what true community is, with examples of authentic third places from medieval England. Do these fulfill any of the 8 criteria? How do they contrast with modern drinking places, such as bars? Lastly, we discuss how industrial society has removed us from the natural rhythm of the seasons, and how that has threatened the number of true third places.
