The guidance we received (and continue to receive) has been instrumental in making our business a success.<br /><br />The work they do in the community and in local business is something rotherham can be proud of. Can't praise the work of rye enough, this is a sad day for Rotherham!Lukehttp://www.lightningbox.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-47196642786436740372018-02-02T23:50:37.999+00:002018-02-02T23:50:37.999+00:00This is an appallingly shortsighted decision.

Whilst the protection of children is the most important thing in the world and everyone welcomes the latest ofsted ruling in Rotherham that it has improved what many fail to appreciate in Ian Thomas's constant drive for self promotion is the huge amount of funding that has been wasted on his watch and led to inevitable funding decisions like this as a result. Members have failed to say no to him or scrutinise his spending decisions closely enough. Hundreds of thousands have been wasted on ineffective external consultants. Yes it needed investment but in the right areas. Unfortunately if you allow an idiot to throw enough money at everything then yes services will improve but it will not be sustainable improvement in the longer term. Shame!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-69772674523196532262018-02-02T15:02:42.100+00:002018-02-02T15:02:42.100+00:00I know these decisions are hard to make but this i...I know these decisions are hard to make but this is just the wrong thing to do. It seems very short-sighted. <br /><br />Hundreds of businesses would not be here in Rotherham if it wasn't for the support of RYE and their business coaches.<br /><br />How many businesses and jobs have been created over the years? How much now comes back to the council through business rates?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-66838379887147478932018-02-02T14:04:24.782+00:002018-02-02T14:04:24.782+00:00Can you please conduct a report on all the busines...Can you please conduct a report on all the business that RYE have helped over the years and just how much corporation tax these pay each year and show that this amount easily covers the RYE running costs?. Then there is the jobs these businesses have created and the income tax they take that way?<br /><br />There is no way my business would be as successful as it is or still running if it wasn't for the support I received from RYE.<br /><br />I pay a fortune in taxes and it goes through me knowing its not being put back into RYE and the team that helped create my job and my employees.
