So why are residents so often excluded from funding decisions?  Just nine miles east of Central London, an ambitious funder is changing that. Barking & Dagenham Giving's GROW Fund is the first community-led investment fund in England. Residents have the power to make decisions about how money is invested in their neighbourhoods. And they have chosen to back community enterprises that will make a commercial and social impact in their area.Nine Miles East is a podcast about the rise, fall, and rise again of a chronically underfunded and deprived London borough. Hosted by Elvire Matu, tune in to hear from the business owners, the decision makers, and the charity at the helm who trust in the wisdom of local people to improve things for their community.Brought to you by Barking and Dagenham Giving. H Clayhanger by Arnold Bennett Loyal Books This first of a trilogy of novels is a coming-of-age story set in the Midlands of Victorian England, following Edwin Clayhanger as he leaves school, takes over the family business, and falls in love.The books are set in Bennett's usual setting of "the 5 Towns", a thinly-disguised version of the six towns of "the Potteries" which amalgamated (at the time of which Bennett was writing) into the borough (and later city) of Stoke-on-Trent.In one of the earlier chapters in the book, Bennett writes that Edwin had only heard of a philosopher as 'someone who made the best of a bad job' and in some ways that is what Edwin has to do in the book - survive under a stifling layer of conduct imposed by his father, his church and the society he is part of.(Introduction by Wikipedia, summarised by seasound11) Story of Manhattan, The by Charles Hemstreet (1866 - ) LibriVox The history of New York City is told as a story, in few words. It begins with Henry Hudson's discovery of Manhattan in 1609. And it finishes in 1898 when the island of Manhattan becomes the Borough of Manhattan of Greater New York. (Summary by Guero.)
