BRANCH NEWS Credit Circuit Training Sheffield and District Branch SHEFFIELD and District Branch and the Yorkshire Ridings Branch joined forces to challenge members and guests to take part in Credit Circuit Training on a rather wet Tuesday evening at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Luckily, the event was held indoors in the first-floor restaurant with stunning views over the park and thankfully no lycra was required. After signing in and collecting a group number, everyone had the opportunity to network over a lovely hot supper and refreshments and to coo over our youngest ever future member – an exceptionally well-behaved young man at just 12 weeks old. Phil Holbrough MCICM, Chair of Yorkshire Ridings Branch, welcomed everyone and laid down the challenge to take up the first circuit station. We spent 15 minutes at each station before Laurie Beagle rang his gong signalling the time to move on. Jeff Gledhill of DWF Solicitors covered some aspects of debt recovery and enforcement, Darren Myers of PwC helped us with financial analysis by taking us through the last accounts of a company which subsequently failed. Michelle Dunn and Mark Platts of Lowell talked about effective communications and Phil Holbrough of credit risk solutions made us think about protecting the debtor ledger. Each circuit station was very interactive and a great opportunity for everyone, both new and old to the profession, to share experiences. Before the evening drew to a close, Laurie Beagle FCICM of Forums International talked about the CICM and the many benefits of membership. The Grim Credit History tour Sheffield and District Branch KELHAM Island was the destination for a ‘Grim Credit History Tour’ with the Sheffield and District branch of the CICM on 6 July. The area of Kelham Island in Sheffield is one of the more attractive cultural destinations in the city today, with numerous bars and eateries in old industrial buildings. But the area had a bad reputation for poor living and working conditions in the 19th Century and it was the site of the town’s debtors’ prison and trade union agitation. A group of hardy CICM folk attended, visiting the old industrial buildings and being provided with a running commentary by local historian Brian Holmshaw of Sheaf Valley Heritage. We saw the crucible stacks of the Titanic Works and the huge cementation furnace at Daniel Doncaster’s work. It was hard to believe the size of the enormous six storey doss house at Shalesmoor that housed the poor of the area, some of them using the ‘penny line’ – where a night was spent leaning on a rope strung across the room for the sum of one penny. It was not all misery on the day. We also visited the newlyopened and refurbished Crow Inn on Scotland Street – site of a Victorian murder – as well as the ever-popular Shakespeare and the Bar Stewards bar on Shalesmoor. The afternoon continued with ghost stories in the Ship Inn and finished with food and drink in another recently opened venue – the Cutlery Works at Neepsend. Author: Carl Goodman MCICM evening promoted some lively debate and was an excellent opportunity for new credit professionals to draw on the knowledge of not only our speakers but also our more seasoned members. Many thanks to all speakers and to all attending members and guests for making the evening a great success, with a special mention to the student members attending in the middle of exam season – that is true commitment.
