PLEASE HELP FIND MY MISSING HUSBAND FAMILY APPEAL: Missing grandfather John Oliver Jones.

Appeal after 64-year-old man disappears

THE wife of a 64-year-old By JUSTINE BAILEY grandfather who has been missing since last Wednes- home in Bro Clywedog after taking his day is appealing to the public wife to work. He then disappeared, the property unlocked, and his for news of his whereabouts. leaving car and mobile phone behind.

Molly Jones of Rhewl near Ruthin has not seen her husband since he took her to work in Mold last Wednesday morning. Self-employed electrician John Oliver Jones was due to meet her off the bus upon her return but never turned up. His disappearance has baffled his family, wife, six children and stepchildren and 20 grandchildren, and they are desperate for him to return home safely. It is believed Mr Jones returned to his

Police officers helped by search and rescue teams and an RAF helicopter from Valley, Anglesey, scoured riverbanks and fields nearby on Saturday but found no trace of him. Mrs Jones said her husband acted in a normal manner on the morning of his disappearance giving her a kiss as usual as he said goodbye. He was dressed in his work clothes,

but on returning to the family home after he failed to pick her up, Mrs Jones noticed these were in the wash bin, indicating he had not been to work. Mrs Jones describes her husband as a “very caring person” and said they were a close couple. “I came home from the bus in Mold and he was supposed to pick me up in Ruthin,” she said. “He hadn’t taken the car. My daughter went to look for him in the house. The front door was open. His car keys were found on the kitchen table.” Mr Jones, who is of stocky build, was possibly wearing a navy coat and beige chino-type trousers.

Mrs Jones added: “We’re concerned because he didn’t have any money and all his cards are here.” Police have checked places Mr Jones frequented, local pubs and the Conservative Club to try to shed light on what has happened. So far, Mr Jones’ family haven’t been able to find his passport. Officers are checking with friends and family – including his brother who lives in Spain. ■ A North Wales Police spokeswoman is urging anyone who may have seen him or who knows of his whereabouts to contact officers on 0845 6071001 (Welsh line) or 0845 6071002 (English line).”

Help for patients

THE Welsh Ambulance Service has introduced a new trio of Patient Care Service (PCS) posts in North Wales to help forge stronger links with hospital staff. The Trust has introduced three customer care supervisor posts in the region, at Ysbyty Gwynedd, Ysbyty Glan Clwyd and Wrexham Maelor, to help manage and ensure the day-to-day smooth running of the patient transport service across the region. The Welsh Ambulance Services provides non-emergency Patient Care Service (PCS) which is responsible for providing non-emergency and pre-planned transport, to and from hospital for appointments at out-patient clinics, day surgery units and day centres. Transport is arranged based on the clinical need of the individual. Each year PCS undertakes nearly one and a half million patient journeys to more than 350 different treatment centres across the United Kingdom. The three new roles are unique to the service and have been filled by Derec Owen, John Bartley and Joanne Davies their role predominately entails working closely with the acute hospitals and all the community hospitals within their area of operation to ensure the patients transport is coordinated and managed as effectively and meets the needs of the Trust and patients. The supervisors are responsible for the management and supervision of PCS operational staff attending their hospital. John, who is based at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd added: “By working closer with the hospitals we can also help alleviate situations where delays in discharging patients may have a knock-on effect on A&E provision and our emergency medical service (EMS).”

Funding boost for child counselling By ANDY DAVIES

STOP THE CULL: Emma Thomas, Brockie, alias Betty Lee from Clwyd Badger Group with campaigner Judi Hewitt in Rhyl.

Protest at badger cull DENBIGHSHIRE animal rights campaigners have collected 3,500 signatures in a bid to stop the badger cull from going ahead. The group hope their petition will persuade Elin Jones, minister for rural affairs, to rethink the mass-killing of badgers. Judi Hewitt, who has been leading the campaign, said: “I would like to thank Betty Lee from Clwyd Badger Group for contributing to this petition; and a very big thankyou to the public for taking the trouble to sign

our petition. “Lesley Griffiths AM has already agreed to a meeting with us so hopefully she will take this public petition and present it to Ms Jones in Cardiff, on our behalf. “We know that the Welsh Assembly are being very secretive about when and where the killing of badgers will take place, but rumour has it could be as early as this spring. “Our petition has shown that most people on the streets are angered by the prospect of a cull of badgers.”

THOSE who lead a Prestatyn service for bereaved children have spoken out following comments made last week by a cancer charity that youngsters in Wales who lose a loved one are not getting enough support. After researching the services available in Wales, Tenovus said it found them patchy and insufficient. The charity said any services available were too localised and called for the development of a Wales-wide provision. The Assembly Government said it was in process of rolling out a school-based £6.5m counselling strategy which would enable children to access a counsellor. Tenovus has appealed for a more co-ordinated approach to bereavement support in Wales. Jill Bowen from the charity

Help for bereaved youngsters

said the country had 22% more incidences of cancer than in England but the bereavement services were not as good. Some specialist services are available in Wales including one at Prestatyn High School which runs an educational bereavement programme for pupils who have suffered a loss. The schools behaviour manager, Melanie Major, who runs the programme, said it was crucial children and young people are supported outside the home environment. “When they’re in the family setting it is so very difficult, they can see the hurt and pain and very often will not express their own feelings in fear of upsetting other family members,” she said.

“In the school setting they can talk to others who have experienced the same feelings. “But many children are forced to go over the border or turn to the private sector.” The school decided to run the programme after a survey of pupils showed that over half had suffered a significant loss and needed support. Deputy head teacher Pat Ellis said parents at the beginning were a little reluctant to give their consent. “For parents they’ve often moved on but often the students haven't got the skill to move on, and that’s what we try to provide,” she said. A spokesman for the Assembly Government said it had provided bereavement counselling service Cruse Bereavement Care (CBC) with £60,000 a year since 2005 to fund their core bereavement services on a Wales-wide basis. Funding of £6.5m has been provided for the first three years of the national schoolbased counselling strategy.

Still hopes to sing in Moscow NORTH Wales singer Mark Evans is still in the running to represent Britain in the final of the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest in Russia. Mark, of Llanrhaeadr near Denbigh, was watched by millions when he appeared on the BBC1 talent show Your Country Needs You on Saturday night. His rendition of Billy Paul’s Me And Mrs Jones delighted the adjudicator Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber into playful humour, with the quip “son of a Welsh sheep farmer, you raised the baa”. Mark is keen to thank all his supporters. “Thank you so much to everyone who picked up the phone and voted for me last Saturday,” he said. “The live show was the most exciting thing I’ve ever done, yet terrifying during the results part. “I think last week’s end result proved that the whole thing is so unpredictable, especially when it comes to Andrew Lloyd Webber making the final decision. “I need to stay out of the bottom two. “So please, please, please vote for me.” On Saturday, Lloyd Webber decided not to save 17-year-old Charlotte Finlay-Tribe after she was one of the two acts with the fewest votes from the public in the show. The West End legend used his casting vote to ensure that the male five-piece The Emperors of Soul stayed in the contest instead. The man behind musicals such as Cats and The Phantom of the Opera has been recruited by the BBC to write the UK’s entry to this year’s Eurovision Song Contest and is leading the hunt for a winning act to sing it in Moscow on May 16. Mark will now be joining the Emperors of Soul, soul singer Jade Ewen from east London and identical twins Francine and Nicola Gleadall from Sheffield to battle it out in next week’s live semi-final.

Petition to stop council cuts Hundreds of residents concerned By JUSTINE BAILEY

HUNDREDS of residents have signed a petition calling on Denbighshire County Council not to implement cuts which would slash funding spent on environmental services across the county. The petition objects to the council’s proposals to make £700,000 worth of cuts to the environmental service budget, leading to decreases in sand clearance and the reduction in street cleaning and lighting and summer and winter planting. County Cllr Brian Blakeley, who has been supported by Vale of Clwyd MP Chris Ruane and AM Ann Jones, was due to present the petition to a meeting of the county council today (Tuesday). “As chair of the environment scrutiny committee I am astonished that the authority is looking to make such huge cuts in the budget,” said Cllr Blakeley. “People already have many concerns over litter and dog muck on our streets and to cut the budget for this is totally unacceptable. “The number of people who have written to me and signed the petition shows the depth of feeling of the residents of the county.” Vale of Clwyd MP Chris Ruane echoed Coun Blakeley’s view, adding: “We need to be looking to encourage people to visit our towns, not drive them away and

Enterprise training

A SEASIDE town could become the first location in Wales for a prestigious school which helps train individuals and help establish community-based businesses. Following a meeting with Vale of Clwyd MP Chris Ruane and Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, Rt Hon James Purnell MP, the School of Social Entrepreneurs has agreed to travel to Rhyl to discuss the possibility of opening a site in the town. There are currently seven schools in England, Northern Ireland and Scotland but none in Wales and these are usually located in deprived areas. Each school works by training individuals in those areas to establish community-based businesses. “I have spent two days at the national HQ of the school in London, I commend the work that they do,” said Mr Ruane. “I think a school could quite quickly be established in this area and offer excellent opportunities for local people to start their own businesses in our most deprived wards. I have invited the school’s director of policy and communications Nick Temple up to discuss the idea with local stakeholders and I will be convening a meeting in February.” The school was set up 12 years ago by Michael Young the founder of the Open University, Which magazine and the Consumers Association. It has an excellent track record with each individual who trains at the school employing three people and engaging seven volunteers and many who attend the school had previously been on longterm benefits and had been marginalised.

Big gig for Andrew CALLS FOR RETHINK: Cllr Brian Blakeley holds the petition residents of Denbighshire have signed objecting to the massive cuts the county council is planning to make.

unfortunately these cuts will do just that. “I would urge Denbighshire County Council to have a rethink about these proposals.” Mr Ruane last week sent a letter to council leader Hugh Evans expressing his “serious concerns” regarding the cutbacks. “There needs to be a full explanation of where Denbighshire’s money has been spent since 1997,” he said. Mr Ruane sent a copy of his letter to all retailers in Rhyl urging them to make their views known about the proposed cutbacks. “There is a lot of excellent work going on in Rhyl at the moment with Rhyl Going Forward, Rhyl City Strategy, Modus harbour development and High Street/ Bus Station and Railway Station improvements and I believe these cuts will be a step backwards,” wrote the MP.

Future of Little Theatre to be decided at court hearing SUPPORTERS of the UK’s first purpose-built children’s theatre will have to wait several months before learning whether their fight to save it from closure has been successful. Denbighshire County Council is refusing to renew the lease of Rhyl’s Little Theatre on health and safety grounds but volunteers running the venue say they have brought it up to standard, having spent £34,000 on improvements. In a five-minute hearing at Rhyl County Court on Friday council solicitor Alison

YOUNG local bands from Denbigh will be taking to the stage on Saturday for a special “Big Gig”. The Bands will perform live on stage in Denbigh Town Hall from 4-7pm. The performers wanted to put on the event in memory of their friend Andrew MacDavid who died in a car accident at the end of last year.

Fraud crackdown

DENBIGHSHIRE County Council has warned it will not tolerate benefit fraud in the county. During 2008, the Council's Benefit Fraud Team secured nine convictions, some of which were joint prosecutions with the Department for Work and Pensions. Fines totalling £3,758 were issued, a total of 450 hours community service and an eight-week curfew order. Costs were awarded in all nine cases. As well as successful prosecutions, cautions and administrative penalties have also been issued where it was not in the public interest to prosecute. All overpayments and penalties are being actively recovered by Denbighshire County Council's Overpayments Recovery Section. Councillor Julian Thompson-Hill, Cabinet Lead Member for Finance, said: “The council wants everyone who is entitled to claim benefits to apply for them. “However, whilst most people claim honestly a small number abuse the system. Nationally, millions of pounds are stolen this way every year. This directly affects the amount of Council Tax that is paid by the residents of Denbighshire County Council, as well as reducing the amount which is available to those who are genuinely in need.” ■ Anyone with any information about benefit fraud should contact the council on 01824 706345 or 01824 70634. Further information is available on www.denbighshire.gov.uk

Tidy minds AN initiative to ensure a town is kept looking pristine is now up-and-running. The coordinator for Denbigh Tidy Towns is Ernie Martin and he has been working hard to make it a success. He has got together volunteers from all over Denbigh who come together once a month to tackle areas of concern. This month Tidy Towns set their sights on two locations – graffiti at Lower Denbigh Park and weeds and litter on Pen y Graig footpaths. The footpaths in Pen y Graig needed a bit of attention and that is exactly what the Tidy Towns Volunteers gave them. Denbigh has received some bad press in recent months with regards to litter/dog fouling etc and projects such as these show Denbigh residents are fighting back and showing the community are coming together to make Denbigh a better place. There are already several volunteers signed up to the project, but more are needed. ■ Anyone who feels they can help should contact PCSO Catrina Wilde on 07766 423568.

Pub tax ‘cover-up’ is hard to swallow By JUSTINE BAILEY

FOLLOWING news that increased beer taxes are accelerating the closure of pubs throughout Denbighshire, it can be revealed that drinking holes are being denied business rate cuts by the Government. Last week the Visitor highlighted the concerns of Cllr Ian Gunning, Denbighshire’s licensing chairman, who was shocked at how quiet pubs in the county were over the festive break and is worried for their long-term future. This week Conservative parliamentary candidate for the Vale of Clwyd, Matt Wright, has spoken out on the matter stating that landlords could be paying thousands of pounds over the odds in tax. He said they are being kept in the dark by Government tax inspectors who want to avoid paying out tax refunds. This follows a revelation

Fears over the long-term future of businesses

earlier this year that tax inspectors were hiding the fact that hundreds of thousands of homes could be paying too much council tax. Parliamentary Questions have brought to light unpublished internal guidance by the Valuation Office Agency (an arm of HM Revenue & Customs) on how local firms should be charged business rates. It admits they have been giving out the wrong advice to firms on the effect of the smoking ban. Until recently, tax inspectors refused to give any business rate reduction for the loss of custom due to the ban. Their latest guidance now admits – thanks to advice from top lawyers – that the smoking ban represents a “material change”. Pubs can use this to make a claim for a lower “rate-

able value” and so cut their yearly rates bill. For example, a £5,000 reduction in rateable value would save publicans £2,300 a year in tax. Pubs can only apply for this tax cut if they make an appeal and fill out complex paperwork. The Government has made no announcement about potential refunds to local pubs across England and Wales. “Local pubs are a vital part of our social fabric and community life,” said Mr Wright. “Whilst some big pub chains may be making money out of Labour’s new drinking laws, small everyday pubs are suffering. The Government’s own tax inspectors have now admitted that pubs may be eligible for refunds on their business rates, but pub owners are being intentionally kept in the dark about

Man was knocked to ground A HENLLAN man who admitted an attack on another man outside the village pub – fracturing his orbital bone and causing double vision – received a suspended prison sentence on Friday. Jason Owens, 36, of Meifod Road, Henllan, had denied a charge of inflicting grievous bodily harm but changed his plea on an earlier occasion. Julie McNeill, prosecuting, told how complainant Raymond Bartley was standing outside the public house one evening in May and saw the defendant sitting in his vehicle in the pub car park. The two men had known each other around the village for about four years. “On this occasion the defendant is described as looking angry by Mr Bartley who approached the vehicle and in a joking manner asked him why he was looking at him in an angry fashion. “The defendant accused the complainant of swearing at his wife a couple of days before,” said Miss McNeill. “The complainant accepts that was the case saying that there was a problem with their dogs making a mess on the path.” She said Owens was by now very aggressive and Mr Bartley tried to calm the situation. Owens got out of his car and pushed Mr Bartley with both hands, causing him to stumble back. The defendant had clenched his fists and was squaring up to Mr Bartley who feared for his safety. “The complainant did strike the defendant once during the incident because he felt threatened, having just been pushed,” Miss McNeill explained. But Owens replied: “You have hit me – now I can do what I want!” With that, he punched Mr Bartley, knocking him down onto his hands and knees. The judge, Mr Recorder Nic Parry, sitting at Mold Crown Court, said that Owens had caused a very serious injury.

PUBS LOSE OUT: Conservative parliamentary candidate Matt Wright is appalled that pubs are being denied business rate cuts by the Government. this U-turn. This is yet another tax cover-up from the same inspectors who have conspired to hide council tax errors. “Thanks to Whitehall secrecy and this stealth pub tax, local firms are going to the wall and everyday pub-goers are being hit in the wall.”

Team to tighten up on hygiene FOOD safety is on top of the menu for a Denbighshire team as it continues to take robust action against businesses that fail to comply with strict food safety regulations. Since April 1, 2008, the Denbighshire Food Safety Team has undertaken 347 food hygiene inspections and served 250 warning letters following visits. Two prosecutions have been secured by the authority during 2008, with over £12,000 of fines and costs awarded by the courts. Councillor Sharon Frobisher, Cabinet Lead Member for Communities, said: “It is essential that all providers or suppliers of food adhere to the strict regulations that are in place to protect the health and well-being of the consumer. “These cases demonstrate clearly that the Council will take robust action against those who fail to comply with food safety laws. These recent court cases also show that the courts do not tolerate people placing consumers’ health and safety at risk.”

Chance to see theatre at work AN Open Day for the local community at Theatr Twm o’r Nant, Denbigh is scheduled for Saturday January 31.

This Open Day will allow members of the public to see the theatre in its “working” use – with past performers of the Theatre on stage throughout the day, performing 20-minute slots – from music, drama, film, dance and much more. Fundraising to help promote this state-of-theart, quality venue will be a priority, as well as attracting new audiences and more bookings.

The Prince’s Regeneration Trust is one of The Prince’s charities, a group of 19 causes of which HRH The Prince of Wales is President. The Trust has dual charitable objects which cover both heritage and regeneration. Projects Officer Edward Holland confirmed the Trust had been in contact with the council about the hospital site,

and Vale of Clwyd MP Chris Ruane, who has been in correspondence with Clarence House about the issue, added: “People of Denbigh and further afield are quite rightly concerned about what has been going on at the hospital “Something needs to be done with the site before it falls any further into disrepair. I am pleased that Denbighshire County Council is taking steps to protect the building.”

Heritage grant

VALE of Clwyd AM Ann Jones has welcomed Heritage Lottery Fund’s decision to award a grant of £40,700 to Denbigh Heritage Regeneration Project. The grant will provide a major boost to the 12-month project aimed at extending Denbigh’s involvement in and appreciation of its heritage. The main goal is to establish a community archive managed by volunteers as well as kick-starting a sustainable group of volunteer tour guides. Heritage Lottery Fund has awarded over £192 million to 1,700 projects right across Wales. Ann Jones AM said: “I am pleased to see this excellent project receive the funding that enables it to involve the community in its celebration of Denbigh’s rich history. “The Community Archive will, I hope, be a treasure trove for generations to come. I’m sure residents in Denbigh have lots of interesting antiques and pictures that could be copied and presented as part of this archive. I wish the project all the best with its work.”

PRINCE Charles is keeping a close eye on developments at a former psychiatric hospital which was a target for arsonists last November.

Last week the Prince’s Regeneration Trust’s project adviser Edward Holland announced after it was revealed how His Royal Highness – a keen conservationist – is supporting Denbighshire County Council’s campaign to safeguard listed structures at the North Wales Hospital, Denbigh. The former psychiatric hospital gutted by fire is to receive a £4.8m cash injection to preserve its remaining buildings. This coming September, owners Freemont Denbigh Ltd, who plan to develop 17 acres of the site for housing will be forced to pay out £4.8m into a restoration fund for the hospital. If they do not manage to find buyers for these proposed properties and cannot pay the £4.8m it will be transferred to a “British bank” and that bank will become the new owner of the hospital. The Trust’s backing comes in the light of owner Freemont Denbigh’s application to build 317 houses on the site, which has been empty for years. Mr Holland said: “The Prince of Wales retains a close interest in the plight of Denbigh Hospital and is looking forward to when a solution can be found. “The North Wales Hospital is Grade II listed and an exceptional example of a mid-19th century asylum. “We believe given the building’s historical importance that every effort should be made to find a viable new use. “The Prince’s Regeneration Trust is working closely with all parties involved to consider how to achieve a positive outcome for this important site before it deteriorates beyond recovery.” The Regeneration Trust has met with the Welsh Assembly and Denbighshire County Council, including Denbighshire’s Conservation Architect Phil Ebbrell, to discuss ways forward. They will be meeting again in the coming weeks. The Prince first showed an interest in the Denbigh hospital in 2004 when representatives from the former Phoenix Trust heritage organisation, of which he is the President, were told to report directly to him when matters

settlement for local authorities. North Wales AM Mark Isherwood, Shadow Minister for Social Justice, Equality and Housing, said the funding agreement will make matters much worse for county

councils which are already facing huge pressures. “The Welsh Local Government Association has called the Labour-Plaid Cymru Welsh Government settlement, ‘An entirely predictable local government settlement that

fundamentally fails to address the extreme pressures facing local government’,” said Mr Isherwood. Its finance spokesperson has said: “Many local authorities are now being forced to consider job losses.”

Services are slashed for school savings By STAFF REPORTER

BUILDING LINKS: Ysgol Bryn Hedydd pupils get expert advice for their latest term project.

Pupils are building bridges PUPILS at a Rhyl primary school have been building bridges in recent weeks. As part of their latest topic Building Bridges, Year 5 pupils at Ysgol Bryn Hedydd had the opportunity to build a 15-metre wood and steel bridge of their own in the school hall. Working in partnership through Careers Wales, the project was lead by the Sector Skills Council. Construction

groups such as Costain and Daniel Contracting supplied the bridge and personnel who enable the project to take place. The children were able to learn about the mechanics of bridge design and construction through a hands-on approach. The experience gave them a taste of the challenges faced by civil engineers. The children will continue to develop their understanding by visiting the Menai Bridge later in the term.

SCHOOLS across Denbighshire are bracing themselves for cutbacks as more services are slashed across the county.

Next month, every primary and secondary school headteacher will meet to discuss making “efficiency savings”. At last week’s Lifelong Learning Scrutiny Committee meeting council officers pledged to make cuts to save schools from suffering. Between £100,000 and £500,000 is hoped to be stowed away in a pot to be ploughed back into education over the next three years. A list of money-saving recommendations was put forward to safeguard the county’s education. Councillors agreed to scrap Rhyl’s mobile library service from this April and anticipate a wide-ranging review of library services across the county next year, which will set out to cut a further £88,000. Ruthin’s Cae Ddol paddling pool will be axed and staff relocation expenses

Funding for education pot

have been binned. A debate broke out over Denbighshire’s newsletter County Voice which will now be printed quarterly saving £100,000. Its success after 12 months will be reviewed. Leisure services have also been trimmed. At the moment the council are remaining tightlipped about whether the cash-slash would spur school closures or mergers in the future. But a capital spending programme will be rolled out to pull finances into order after a report revealed free school meals and the shock closure of the Hyfrydle autism facility has sent education costs reeling. This week, councillors made desperate attempts to claw back chunks of their budget through last-ditch cost-cutting exercises amounting to millions. Loss-making schools have come under fire including Rhyl High School and the town’s Blessed Edward Jones, which are said to

have “ongoing issues”. The latest hurdle faced by the Rhyl schools is a controversial plan to close down their sixth forms and replace them with a single new college. Catherine Britton, head teacher of Blessed Edward Jones School said she will “move heaven and earth to avoid the situation” to keep the school’s identity. Last month it was revealed the school – which rose out of special measures – is in financial crisis after appointing Ms Britton. The council accused the school of “ignoring” money-saving recommendations even though it is beginning to turn itself around. It argued it needs the money to remain successful. Headteachers will meet next month to discuss costcutting ideas. Vale of Clwyd MP, Chris Ruane said the council should apologise if education suffers. “The mess over the Hyfrydle saga is the council’s own fault, its not fair that pupils should pay the price,” he said. “They need to make sure they don’t end up with a democratic deficit.”

Mr Isherwood added: “In my region, all of north Wales’s six local authorities are having to make dramatic cuts after a shortfall in the financial settlement from the Assembly Government. Angry council chiefs throughout the Welsh Local Government Association have called for a rethink.” Meanwhile Conservative Parliamentary candidate for the Vale of Clwyd, Matt Wright, believes councils must protect frontline services in the recession and reduce nonessential spends to achieve this, such as scrapping glossy magazines. “Councils across Wales and the UK are facing tough decisions,” he said. “Only a proportion of the money they spend comes from council tax, the rest depends on grants from the Government. Despite Cardiff doubling what it spends in the Assembly, the grants to councils have been getting tighter and next year are expected to be extremely tight. In addition areas like Denbighshire have the highest proportion of elderly people in Wales for which the local authority must provide caring services as a priority. “Added to this is the problem of the recession which means that income to councils will go down but demand on services is likely to go up. Frontline public services such as social care and education, the biggest departments, must be protected in the face of this squeeze which means that all councils will have to make hard decisions to ride the storm in the next two or three years. “They must balance the books just as families are having to do the same. Council tax is rightly cited by many people as too expensive and efforts must be made to bring this down to help those families. Non-essential activities like the glossy magazine sent out by the council, called County Voice should be scrapped, this alone would save £140,000 in the first year.”

D-Day looms for Tesco’s Coast Road store plans

By ANDY DAVIES

COUNTY Councillors will meet today (Wednesday) to discuss whether to give controversial plans for a Tesco Express on the Coast Road, Rhyl, the go-ahead.

Officers will urge councillors to reject the Tesco plans on highway grounds. More than 1,580 people signed a petition against the proposal to develop the former Esplanade Service Station site, which has been empty for four years. Now planners are recommending the scheme be scrapped. Rhyl Town Council objected to the proposal, stating: “The proposed parking by customers is considered likely to create a significant disruption to traffic movement on the Rhyl Coast Road when accessing the store.” Town councillors and residents feared the store would decimate trade and cause traffic chaos in Rhyl. Denbighshire County Council was handed a petition in November. Tesco Express stores are described by the supermarket giant as neighbourhood convenience shops, stocking mainly food with an emphasis on highermargin products alongside everyday

Leisure chief Jamie

DENBIGHSHIRE County Council has appointed its first head of Leisure Services. Jamie Groves is responsible for all aspects of leisure. He has worked for the council for 11 years and has undertaken several roles, including project manager, senior sports development officer, principal facilities officer, and interim principal leisure officer. His new role will involve raising the profile of Leisure Services through marketing, building partnerships, promoting collaboration and further developing the wide range of leisure activities currently arranged across the county. He will also be asked to provide a long-term vision for leisure services.

essentials. A Tesco Express opened on Rhuddlan Road in the town in October. In a document submitted to the County Council planning committee, it is recommended that they refuse the application on the grounds that the parking provisions may lead to additional parking on the Coast Road which would be “detrimental and to the safety and convenience of all highway users”. Officers also feel that the slowing and turning of vehicles into the site will adversely impact on the free flow and safety of the traffic. The objectors, backed by Vale of Clwyd MP Chris Ruane and AM Ann Jones, argued it would cause traffic problems, disturb neighbours and affect other local businesses. Mr Ruane said: “Officers have made the right decision to urge members to refuse this application as it would have seen a number of local neighbourhood stores go out of business.”

System aids flow at CAB

FROM next month Denbighshire Citizens Advice Bureau will be using a new system which will enable more people to have help and advice. Denis Bailey, chief executive officer of Denbighshire CAB said: “As part of our normal organisations strategy to improve access to bureau services we are implementing the Gateway strategy. The aim of the strategy is to enable the CAB service to help more people and ensure that those in greatest need receive the most appropriate service. “Demand on our service can be managed more effectively, clients in greatest need receive the most appropriate service, a greater number of clients can be dealt with.” Manager Lesley Powell added: “All clients when they attend a bureau will have a five minute Gateway assessment interview by a trained adviser. “We will during that interview: Assess a client’s enquiry, provide immediate information or signposting, make an appointment to see an adviser in the bureau, refer to a specialist in the bureau or refer to another organisation. “Clients will benefit from this system and it will allow us to respond to an increasing demand upon our service. Last year we dealt with enquiries, the gateway system should allow us to increase that number significantly.”

Stars shine for global musical spectacular

Extra day is final touch for celebration By ANDY DAVIES

ONE of the world’s largest global celebrations of music and dance is to play host to a glittering array of new and established international stars.

They will join 4,000 competitors from all over the world at this year’s Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod in July (July 7 – 12). Multi-million selling recording artist, Barbara Dickson, who recently celebrated 40 years in the music industry, together with charttopping male quartet Blake, soprano sensation Natasha Marsh, and Jamaican-born bass-baritone Sir Willard White are all confirmed for this summer’s hot ticket concerts at the 63rd Llangollen International Musical festival in Denbighshire. In a new and exciting development this year, 007 comes to Llangollen, when Carl Davis, renowned composer and conductor, directs the music of James Bond with the Welsh National Opera Orchestra, Mary Carewe, and Simon Bowman. A Bond girl will also make an appearance, Pussy Galore, aka actress Honor Blackman the host for Sunday July 12’s evening concert. This year, for the first time ever, Llangollen will include an extra day of activities on Sunday, bringing the festival to a jam-packed full six days of activities, day and evening. Working closely with the local community, the Eisteddfod will offer an array of artists performing on the field and in the town of Llangollen during this additional day.

A SIXTH-FORMER who hit a man over the head with a bottle in a nightclub brawl was told on Friday he had come very close to being sent into custody. At Prestatyn youth court the 16-year-old pleaded guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm during the incident at the Venue nightspot in Ruthin on July 12, 2008. The Prestatyn teenager, said by his solicitor Andy Hutchinson to be a very talented allround sportsman, was a member of a rugby squad at the nightclub that night. Prosecutor Wyn Jones told the court that after the youth poured a girl’s drink into his own bottle the girl’s boyfriend took exception and threw half a pint over him. The 16-year-old and a 17-year-old friend then became involved in a fight with the man, 22-year-old David Whyte, during which Mr Whyte was hit on the head with a bottle. He suffered a cut which needed four stitches. The 17-year-old denied assault and was bailed until his trial on February 18. The youth’s father was ordered to pay Mr Whyte £250 in compensation.

Dealing with debt

DENBIGHSHIRE Citizens Advice Bureau has just completed the first year of a three-year project funded by the Royal British Legion and the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund. This project enables the CAB to provide advice and support to ex-service personnel, veterans and their dependants, on benefit and debt matters. During its first year the project has helped 118 people, dealt with £930,000 of debt and gained £93,000 in benefits. Helen Cooper, a project caseworker said: In some situations we are able to access grants from the Royal British Legion, to alleviate priority debts, pay bankruptcy fees, grants for essential items and immediate needs.” ■ Contact Helen call 01745 818390.

Road open to public DENBIGHSHIRE County Council is informing motorists that major works to repair a bridge along Green Lane, Corwen have now been completed and the road reopened to the public. Over recent months, the council’s bridges section carried out bridge strengthening works which resulted in the road being closed to motorists and diversions in place. Painting works are scheduled for the spring, although this will not result in a road closure. The council would like to thank motorists for their co-operation during the roadworks period.

Hot Topic Plea to clean up after your pooch By JUSTINE BAILEY

N my 10 years of working on the Visitor I have lost count of the number of stories I have written about dog fouling.

On a regular basis we receive calls from residents throughout the county complaining about the amount of dog mess on our streets. During the same period I have also dealt with numerous press releases from Denbighshire County Council warning dog owners of the consequences of committing this offence and urging them to pick up after their animals. Yet as we embark on a new year it seems there has been little improvement. Increasingly I seem to be returning from walks having to clean muck either off my shoes, my son’s shoes or the pram wheels.

Anger at dog mess in the park

I was fuming last week when I found myself yet again removing dog mess, this time from the wheels of my daughter’s brand new trike. It was her first birthday and I couldn’t wait to take her out for her first “bike ride”. It was a fresh winter morning, the sun was out, my daughter was relishing every minute of her new experience – all was perfect ...until we returned home and I got a whiff of the big brown dollop on the back wheel of her gleaming pink vehicle. I have never been a dog owner and one of the reasons for this is because their muck knocks me sick

fro HE x6 m D de £2 S liv 5 ere 5 d

and I don’t want to have to scoop up poo on a regular basis, yet lately I find myself increasingly having to hold my breath to clean it off something. I can’t stress just how much it infuriates me. I only wish I knew those responsible. Maybe they could have used their time to clean my daughter’s bike wheels, instead of me having to waste mine. My latest encounter was on Highfield Park in Rhyl, but on sounding off to my friends I discovered this is not the only neighbourhood where inconsiderate dog owners roam, so keep your eyes to the ground when going for a walk. We have two rabbits which I regularly clean out – not a job I particularly look forward to, but I bought the rabbits so they are my responsibility. I would not for one moment expect anyone else to clean-up after them, so why do dog owners think they can be different? You buy a dog, you clean-up

What issue do you think we should cover? Call 01745 345891

DOG OWNERS TAKE NOTE: Signposts in public parks and walkways warn dog owners of the penalty if they do not pick up their dog mess. after it – it’s simple. Don’t forget you can report any culprits online by logging on to Denbighshire County Council’s website, www.denbighshire.gov.uk

IN MEMORY: Community and veteran representatives join family and friends of Harry Weale in a parade to his graveside last Tuesday to mark the 50th anniversary of his death. Pic: Charles Leach (Royal British Legion) and Rhyl Town Council

Tributes are paid to a brave world war soldier

At 11am last Tuesday, community and veteran representatives joined family members to remember and pay tribute to Henry (Harry) Weale VC on the 50th anniversary of his death. The Victoria Cross was awarded to Mr Weale following his bravery in a battle at the village of Bazentin-leGrand, in northern France during the First World War. During the course of the battle Harry, then a Lance Corporal and aged just 20, was ordered to deal with an enemy machine gun position. When his own gun failed, he rushed to the enemy position and killed the crew, then went for others who fled on his approach. The event was recorded in the London Gazette on November 15 1918 which wrote: “His very dashing deed cleared the way for the advance, inspired his comrades, and

resulted in the capture of all the machine guns.” Although a native of Shotton, Harry lived his later life in Rhyl and is buried in the town’s cemetery on Grange Road. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of his death civic leaders and veteran groups joined members of Harry’s family for a service at his grave side led by the Rev Michael Bennett. The party then returned to the Rhyl Town Council offices and witnessed the presentation of a replica Victoria Cross to Harry’s eldest child, Phyllis Perkins, (the original medal having been donated to Harry’s regimental museum at Caernarfon Castle after his death, where it remains on display).

A memorial day for Weale 50 years on

By JUSTINE BAILEY

NORTH Wales would lose its voice in Westminster if Tory proposals to cut the number of parliamentary seats were to go ahead. Tory leader, David Cameron, has announced proposals to standardise the number of electors per constituency. This plan would mean boundary reviews for many areas and as seven North Wales seats (18 in Wales overall) are among the top 40 smallest constituencies in the UK, this would mean the Principality would be hardest hit. “Wales will be hit by a Tory double whammy,” said Chris Ruane MP, who is chairman of the North Wales Group of Labour MPs. “Wales’s voice in Westminster will be decimated not just on issues such a pensions, taxation, defence and policing but also on issues such as hospital services for Welsh patients in Alder Hey, Walton, the Countess in Chester and other hospitals in England. “The Tory hit list for boundary review includes only one Tory seat. Their proposals take no account of rurality or history – they are simply gerrymandering the seats for party political gain. “I challenge all Tory MPs and prospective parliamentary candidates in Wales, especially Clwyd West MP David Jones, to say whether they support David Cameron on these proposals.”

A MAN who claimed to have lost £8,000 through the collapse of the Woolworths chain became involved in a bizarre fracas with a store manager. But when he was arrested Michael Keith Jones admitted he had no financial interest in the business and merely objected to the way a toy had been displayed on a shelf. Jones, 53, of Wellington Road in Rhyl, admitted assaulting Andrew Robertson, manager of the Prestatyn branch, on November 26, and to disorderly conduct. Sentence was adjourned until February 4 for a presentence report. Prestatyn magistrates heard Jones had upset a female member of staff with his odd behaviour, removing a toy lorry and saying: “This is not right”. When Mr Robertson arrived Jones told him he was responsible for him having lost £8,000 and when the manager tried to usher him out of the store they became entangled and fell against some baskets. Roger Thomas, defending, said Jones’s behaviour was bizarre and it was only after watching CCTV footage of the incident that Jones accepted the prosecution’s version.

Playing ‘hard man’

A “SHOW OFF” who went out into the street and demonstrated how he could use the Chinese martial arts weapon “nun chucks” when he feared that a group of youths had knives, broke down and wept when he escaped a custodial sentence on Thursday. Benjamin Ward, 18, of Bedford Street in Rhyl, admitted possessing the weapon as an offensive weapon during an incident captured on CCTV in November. The judge, Mr Recorder Nic Parry, gave him a 20-week sentence of youth custody, suspended for a year, and ordered him to remain home for the next three months between 7pm and 7am. He must also carry out 120 hours unpaid work. Mr Parry told Ward, who had been remanded in custody for the first time in his life: “You found out the hard way that it doesn't pay to play the hard man.” The court heard how CCTV operators alerted police to a large group of youths in Abbey Street in Rhyl. The nun chucks were seen to be in the possession of the defendant and they were also passed to another person who had been dealt with by magistrates. Ward had been in custody since December 18 and was determined never to return because it had provided him with a wake-up call.

Pole trek for charity THE brother and nephew of a Rhyl woman who died five years ago after losing her battle against myeloid leukaemia have completed a gruelling trek to the South Pole to raise money for the cancer centre which treated her. Kevin Gaskell, 50, and 18-year-old Matt were part of a seven-man team who completed the 186-mile challenge. Mr Gaskell's sister Jayne Strong died in 2004 at the age of 44. Her brother hopes the trek will raise £40,000, with the money being divided between the cancer centre at Glan Clwyd and the rest to the Leukaemia Research charity. He has previously raised £80,000 for the centre by walking to the North Pole.

Offenders help restore a sense of pride on estate Team gets pat on back for its efforts By JUSTINE BAILEY

RESIDENTS have thanked a team of offenders for helping them to restore a sense of pride on their estate.

The offenders took part in a groundbreaking new scheme being piloted in Denbighshire by providing free labour for a clear-up operation on the Marsh Road estate, in Rhyl. The county is one of six areas in the UK chosen to trial the Citizens’ Panel project to give the public more say in the work done by offenders. Under the supervision of the North Wales Probation Area, the offenders wear bright orange bibs so that members of the community can see them repaying their debt to society. The clear-up operation came about after a plea at a public meeting involving local residents and council officials. The team have all been ordered by local magistrates to do unpaid work that is of benefit to the community. Their efforts were greatly appreciated by people living on the estate who joined forces with the probation team. Residents Paul and Christine Mat-

PULLING TOGETHER: Residents Christine Mathews and Paul Thompson with some of the offenders and supervisors during the recent clean-up of Marsh Road, Rhyl. thews were among those taking part in the clear-up. Mrs Matthews said: “They have done a brilliant job today, they were very helpful. “Everybody has mucked in together, the offenders and the residents. “This helps keep the estate looking tidy. I have lived around here all my life and something like this is absolutely brilliant. “If a place looks run-down and untidy, people don’t tend to look after it

but if you keep on top of it people tend to show the area more respect. “It helps restore a sense of pride in the community – if somewhere looks tidy, you want to keep it tidy and shows an example to the children growing up here.” Team member Damon Hughes, 21, was pleased that their efforts had been so well-received. “It’s better to pay back to the local community than going to prison,” he said.

COMMUNITIES in Denbighshire in need of regeneration have received £1.4 million in housing renewal aid. Deputy Housing Minister Jocelyn Davies announced on Thursday that 36 renewal areas in 19 local authorities in Wales will share a slice of £25 million. Renewal areas enable councils to focus activity and investment on areas that combine a need for assistance with the potential for regeneration. Each council has its own action plan to improve housing and facilities in their renewal areas with the aim of kick-starting wide-ranging investment and reversing the process of decline. Announcing the funding Ms Davies said: “This programme will improve the quality of life for thousands of people across Wales, helping to restore confidence in towns and villages in need of regeneration. “As well as improving living conditions and facilities for residents, these funds have the added benefit of boosting local employment by providing work and business for builders and suppliers. “Many of these projects span several financial years providing longer-term employment opportunities. It’s therefore vital that local contractors are involved in these bigger projects. “The money can be spent in a number of ways and will support long-term sustainable improvements to communities. These include renovating housing, modernising shop fronts, environmental projects, highway and traffic calming measures, healthy living projects and local training and employment facilities. Local authorities decide how to spend the money in line with their priorities.”

Threats to kill after break-up RUTHIN joiner Liam Jones, 28, went berserk when an older woman ended their relationship. Jones harassed 45year-old Joanne Owen for months and even threatened to kill her if she went with someone else. He carried on despite being warned by the police who had served him with a harassment order, Mold Crown Court was told on Thursday. Jones of Porth y Dre, Ruthin, admitted criminal damage and harassment between May and December last year but escaped an immediate prison sentence. He received a 50-week prison term, suspended for two years, but an indefinite restraining order was made under The Protection from Harassment Act, which means he must not approach Joanne Owen, or go within 300 yards of her home at Haulfryn in Ruthin. The judge, Mr Recorder Nic Parry, ordered him to pay £200 costs and £265 compensation and also placed him on supervision. Jones, who is planning to move to Glasgow to work, must follow an integrated domestic abuse programme.

Radios donated to patients PATIENTS at the area’s leading hospital are listening to news, views and music on the radio thanks to a donation from a community retailer. Voluntary group Radio Ysbyty Glan Clwyd were given £500 from The Co-operative. The money has been used to buy 1,000 portable radios which have been distributed among the hospital patients. “Hospital radio provides entertainment for patients and creates a sense of community within the hospital, both of which can help the infirm get on the road to recovery,” said secretary Andrew Hayes. “They can listen in bed, in the day room, coffee bar or outside. It’s much more enjoyable for patients and we would like to thank The Cooperative for its support.” The donation came from The Co-operative’s Community Fund, part of The Co-operative Group’s membership share of profits scheme which allows members to donate all or part of their twice-yearly payouts to worthy causes.

Pensioner still searches for lost love after 40 years Newsfile

Race discrimination

By ANDY DAVIES

A PENSIONER has spent her entire adult life – and thousands of pounds – searching for a Welshman she fell in love with at an airport 40 years ago.

Regina Bradley, 72, paid to advertise in newspapers and journeyed across the country in a bid to find the mystery admirer she encountered at Gatwick in December 1968. Regina, who has two children and divorced last year, said the man was with a group of Welsh friends waiting for a plane when he whispered “I love you” to her across the terminal. She agreed to meet him in London later that night but was unable to find her way there. She’s been looking for him ever since. “Some people have ridiculed me for this and said it’s impossible – they say I’ll never find him,” said former headteacher Regina, from Llangollen. “I’ve paid thousands in advertising to try and find him but that’s just a part of it. I’ve travelled all over Wales for this. “I believe God will bring me a miracle. That moment has stayed with me for the last 40 years, and it will never go away.” Regina was a teacher in Toronto, Canada, when she returned home to visit her family on Tyneside for Christmas in 1968. As she sat at Gatwick airport waiting for a train into the capital, a group of Welshmen gathered around her with “cigars and beer,” waiting for their friends’ flight. “There was peace and quiet before these jovial men turned up with cigars and large mugs of beer,” said Regina “They began asking about my accent and were lovely people, really friendly – as I’ve found all Welsh people to be. But one of the group stood out. “He looked at me as if he’d seen a vision and mouthed the words ‘I love you.’ I was shocked. “I was 33 years old and nobody had ever said that to me before. I’ve never been in a loving relationship and never had been to that point. “He was solemn looking and had fine features. He had dark hair, was slim and had a good-looking, intelligent face. “As they were about to depart he asked me if we could meet in Pica-

Brief encounter lasts a lifetime! dilly Circus later that evening. “I thought my brother might be able to take me as I was staying with him and I’d never been to London before, but he couldn’t – I was devastated.” Regina then began her quest to find the man by placing adverts in newspapers across Wales and even visiting the country – after returning to the UK from Canada – to try and seek him out. She eventually settled in North Wales in 2003, living in Betws-yCoed for three years before moving to Llangollen. To no avail. Regina has never been reunited with the man who stole her heart in the brief seconds they were together all those years ago. She hopes readers may be able to help her. “I’m a loving and affectionate woman who has never been cared for in my entire life,” said Regina. “I’m still young at heart and if God were to grant me the miracle of meeting this man again then I would like to have a relationship. “After all, isn’t that everyone’s ultimate dream – to be loved?”

A SPANISH supermarket worker who had to endure racist jibes from a male colleague has been awarded £6,570. An employment tribunal ruled that Marisol Lacalle, 55, had been the subject of race discrimination and harassment at the Morrisons store in Denbigh. She still works there as does Kevin Evans, the man who taunted her, his mother Wendy, who is a supervisor, his sister and partner. Ms Lacalle claimed Mr Evans said to her: “Why don’t you go back home? Don’t you have supermarkets in Spain?” Employment judge Guy Prichard said such comments were hurtful and certainly not banter. Ms Lacalle said she felt upset by Mr Evans’s remarks and although she did not lodge a grievance complaint until nine months after the comments, she confided in friends in a church group. Ms Lacalle’s grievance was dismissed by Morrisons as were two subsequent appeals after Mr Evans flatly denied having made racist remarks, but the tribunal felt more effort should have been made to find out whether the allegations were accurate.

e easy tra plan

pounds simply melting off in next to no time is very tempting, in reality most people find crash diets restrictive and unrealistically hard to stick to, meaning you’re more likely to ditch the diet than drop a dress size. So, this year, if you want to slim down, make sure you follow a healthy, balanced diet and exercise regularly to lose weight gradually and keep it off in the long term. Small changes in your daily eating habits can make a big difference to both your waistline and your energy levels. Try replacing your mid-morning muffin and full fat latté with a piece of fruit and black coffee; drink plenty of water to keep

you hydrated; limit your intake of red meats, which are high in saturated fats; always eat breakfast to start your metabolism healthily, and try to fill the majority of your dinner plate with brightly coloured and dark green leafy vegetables, which are low in calories but rich in fibre, vitamins and antioxidants. The key to eating healthily and losing weight is to make sensible choices and allow yourself everything in moderation, as one of the main reasons people fail to stick to diets is because they deny themselves the foods they like. Remember, it’s OK to have a little bit of what you fancy every now and again.

Road widening and bridge repair will help safety

Changes to housing lists CLWYD Alyn Housing Association, which manages almost 5,000 housing units in North and Mid Wales has introduced a new lettings policy to make the waiting list for rented homes fairer and easier to understand. With more people joining the waiting list and fewer vacancies arising Clwyd Alyn is also bringing forward plans to develop new housing in line with Government funding changes. The Association, part of the Pennaf Housing Group, consulted with over 1,500 applicants from its waiting list as well as with existing tenants, partner organisations and Association staff and, as a result, has decided to abandon the traditional housing need points system in favour of a priority banding scheme. Applications will be placed in one of four priority bands dependent upon their current housing circumstances and once priority has been determined applications will be ranked in date order based on the date that the application has been made. The remaining Clwyd Alyn vacancies will be allocated between the various new bands with 25% going to Priority Band 1, 15% to Priority Band 2 and 10% to Priority Band 3. Allocations will only be made to applicants placed in Priority Band 4 if there are no eligible applicants in any of the other categories. Applicants already registered for rented accommodation need not re-apply. ■ Anyone wishing to apply to Clwyd Alyn for rented accommodation should call 0800 1835757.

A second phase is due to last from November 2009 until May 2010. The scheme was announced by Deputy First Minister Ieuan Wyn Jones, who said: “The A55 is a key arterial route, important for the economic prosperity of north Wales, recognised as a major European Union link, and accorded high priority in our transport strategy Connecting The Nation. “Whenever possible during the busiest times of the year and in particular the summer months, traffic management will be removed. “With the importance of this route in

The first phase will start on January 24, focussing on the central reservation and drainage. The second phase will strengthen concrete plinths, replace “substandard” parapets and widen the carriageways.

Prepare for delays

DRIVERS are being warned to expect delays when roadworks begin in Trefnant next week. Resurfacing works will begin on Monday (January 26) for up to four weeks on the A525 at Trefnant (from the traffic lights to the junction with the B5381). Stop/Go boards will be used whilst the work is underway. The resurfacing work is the second phase following the flood alleviation work that took place last year. Meanwhile Brookhouse Road, Denbigh, closed on Monday for up to two weeks. Residents will have vehicular access to their properties where possible during the working day. Denbighshire County Council would like to apologise for any inconvenience these works may cause and would like to thank motorists in advance for their cooperation.

ing the busiest times of the year and in particular the summer months, traffic management will be removed”. Whilst welcoming the Deputy First Minister’s announcement, local Labour AM Ann Jones has called for further action on the Rhuallt Hill section commenting: “I am glad to see the Deputy First Minister allocate this money for the A55 and am pleased at the work planned for the damaged bridge on Junction 27. “Despite this, I still have major concerns over the Rhuallt Hill area. It is my view that this needs addressing immediately and its exclusion from today’s announcement is very disappointing. “The planned work is encouraging but I will continue with my calls for targeted action on the most dangerous features on the A55.”

A NORTH Wales woman who swindled the country out of £46,500 in benefits escaped an immediate prison sentence on Friday because she has three children to look after. Paula Dunn, 28, of Queen Street, Rhyl was earlier convicted of making false representation – claiming benefits as a single woman when she was in fact cohabiting with a partner.

The Judge, Mr Recorder Nic Parry, said that she had been convicted by a jury on overwhelming evidence.

Farm diversification

DENBIGHSHIRE farmers who might be considering diversifying their business are invited to attend a free seminar to get the advice and information they need to turn their ideas into reality. After an immensely successful first round of seminars in November, economic development company Menter a Busnes will offer an opportunity to visit a farm that has already undergone the diversification process and to speak with experts who will be available to offer advice. The North Wales seminar will be held tomorrow (Thursday) from 2-4pm at Plas Isaf Farm near Corwen. Plas Isaf, Corwen is a family-run farm totalling 540 hectares. The farmhouse is a Grade II listed manor house that dates back to the 17th Century. In 2005 the family identified a gap in the market for a venue that could cater for bespoke wedding packages, conferences and parties. The original barn, with its oak trusses and slate floors was identified as the ideal location, and has been carefully restored to its former glory and offers a very splendid venue to host a wide range of functions. (www.plas-isaf.co.uk) Eirwen Williams, Menter a Busnes’s Farming Connect Contract Manager, said: “This event will be invaluable to anyone who might be interested in diversification. Whether it’s help with developing the initial idea, market research, the planning process, developing a business plan, marketing, employing staff or managing the business – this is the perfect place to really get to grips with what’s possible.”

Workplace equality NORTH Wales Police are the highest ranking police force in Wales to be recognised for their workplace equality. Results from Stonewall’s annual “Workplace Equality Index”, which showcases the UK’s top employers for gay people, saw North Wales Police score in the top 50 employers in England and Wales. Employers are ranked according to criteria ranging from implementation of an effective equality policy to demonstrating how they engage with their lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) staff, customers and service users. The Index assesses performance, such as recruitment and promotion activity, as well as policy. This was the first year that the force entered and they are proud of being recognised as an inclusive employer. Assistant Chief Constable Ian Shannon said the force is committed to ensuring that all communities in North Wales receive a fair and equitable policing service: “This demonstrates our commitment to the communities we serve. I am determined to ensure that LGB people who live in, work or visit North Wales can feel secure and see North Wales Police as an employer of choice.” The Workplace Equality Index is routinely used in both the private and public sectors to measure improvement. It’s also a key resource for the 150,000 gay students in UK universities, who use it when deciding where they want to take their talents upon graduation.

Smokers at risk WELSH smokers are putting their lives and families at risk by not putting out cigarettes safely, according to the fire safety charity Firebrake Wales. Last year in Wales, 13 people died and 10 a month were injured in smokingrelated home fires. Many fires happen at night when people fall asleep or smoke in bed and furniture or fabrics are set alight. Worryingly, research shows that smokers are less likely than non-smokers to have working smoke alarms which could alert them and give the chance of escape. “It is vital to make sure all smoking materials are put out safely, especially before bed time,” according to Kim Smith, CEO of Firebrake Wales. “The best way to cut the risk is not to smoke indoors at all.” The Fire and Rescue Services in Wales recommend that homes have a working smoke alarm on each floor and that these are tested once a week.

Specialist fruits will thrive in countryside plum, local apples and Welsh onions.” He has welcomed the schemes worth £135,000 which aim to transform the fertile hills and valleys of Denbighshire and Flintshire into a market garden which is being launched by rural regeneration organisation Cadwyn Clwyd. Their plans, the Denbighshire agrifood and forestry innovation and Flintshire Product innovation – Food & Forestry, are part of a massive threeyear £5.3 million cash injection from the Welsh Assembly Government’s Rural Development Plan administered by Cadwyn Clwyd to revitalise the countryside of North East Wales. He added: “It will encourage farmers and landowners to experiment with

The project organiser is Delyth Jones, of Cadwyn Clwyd, who said: “It’s a very exciting idea and we want to work with farm businesses and groups to trial the growing of fruit, vegetables and herbs that are not

traditionally grown here. “We’re delighted that Stephen has given it such a warm welcome and now we’re looking for people to come forward and contact us.” ■ Anyone interested can contact Delyth on 01824 705 802 or at delyth.jones@ cadwynclwyd.co.uk” INTERESTING IMAGES: Two of the photographs from the James Morris exhibition currently on show at Rhyl Arts Centre. zytm150109Africa-1/2

African exhibition captures creative mud architecture THE British-based photographer James Morris travelled to West Africa with the intention of documenting the region’s mud-built architecture, which is little known and largely ignored – what he saw and captured is currently on show at Rhyl Arts Centre until February 21. The images he produced provide evidence of the creative ways in which local architects shape mud into vibrant, expressive, works of art, enriched through the

constant play of light and shadow. They show the powerful influence of material and imagination in creating built form. They have a striking aesthetic that is unique to the region. Though part of long traditions and ancient cultures this architecture is at the same time contemporary, serving a current purpose. However, mud buildings have a vulnerability, they will collapse in a matter of a

few years if they are not maintained and thus they come and go with uncommon regularity. The maintaining and resurfacing of buildings is part of the rhythm of life. As a mass these buildings have a fluidness, a viscosity, that is unexpected. Slowly they change. As a result these highly expressive photographs are a reflection of this architecture at a specific moment in time.

Creative writing workshop

Climber’s story goes beyond the rope-cutting tale T

HE man who for over 22 years has been known as “the guy who cut the rope” will be coming to the Pavilion Theatre Rhyl next month.

In autumn 2007 Simon Yates began his first UK tour with his lecture Beyond the Void. Since then he has played at 51 venues throughout the UK, receiving a fantastic response from audiences up and down the country. Spring 2009 will see Simon set out on this final tour with Beyond the Void, playing at 23 venues throughout Scotland, England and Wales. Simon Yates is one of the world’s most famous and accomplished mountaineers. He first became known as the man who cut the rope holding friend and climbing partner Joe Simpson during their first ascent of Peru’s Siula Grande in 1985. Simpson’s harrowing account of their descent in his bestselling book and BAFTA award-winning film, Touching the Void, made both men

Final details of life-saving decision By ANDY DAVIES household names in the world’s climbing community and beyond. Over the last 20 years, Simon has dedicated his life to climbing and has an international reputation as one of the most successful exploratory mountaineers in the world. In spring 2009, Simon will be setting out on his final tour with his lecture show Beyond the Void, a humorous and philosophical journey through his whiteknuckle experiences of the last two decades. With his dry wit and philosophical approach, Simon’s lecture is both inspirational and entertaining, his stunning images transporting his audiences to

some of the highest and most treacherous peaks in the world. Simon describes his show as “amazing tales from an incredible life lived to the full”, and hopes that it will give his audience a taste of the mountain environment and the extreme mental and physical challenges he has faced. Based in the Lake District, Simon has an extensive climbing portfolio and has made numerous first ascents in the Pakistani Karakoram, Tien Shan mountain range in Kazakhstan and the Peruvian Andes and has recently returned from completing a first ascent of Monte Iorana in Chilean Tierra del Fuego. Simon has a huge following in the UK, his tales and images attracting large mainstream audiences wherever he has played, and the chance to see him speak is definitely one not to be missed. The lecture will be come to Rhyl on Wednesday, February 11 at 7.30pm with tickets £13 and concessions £1 off. ■ For ticket information call the box office on 01745 330000.

BEYOND THE VOID: Simon Yates will appear at Pavilion Theatre Rhyl in February.

There is also the opportunity to listen to ongoing work by members with the tutor and group offering constructive and helpful comments. There is a subscription for regular members of the group with five meetings priced £20 or £4 per meeting. ■ For further information on the group contact tutor Aled Lewis Evans on 01978 354164.

produce an extra 22bhp at 256bhp. Another feature which is out of the ordinary is the use of a CVT automatic gearbox giving 20 per cent reduction in friction to improve fuel economy. CVT operates on a belt system and can give seamless ratio changes. This system is certainly impressive because it got me home two years ago when a freak snowstorm brought virtually everything else to a halt. The Murano of that year got through even when vehicles like Land Rover Discoveries were struggling, proving that this it has it a depth of capability way beyond its soft-roader image. Murano’s weak point is high emissions of 261g/km and an economy rating of just 25 miles per gallon. But its 0-60mph sprint of eight seconds and top sped of 130mph underline the Murano’s reputation for performance. But there is still a market for vehicles like Murano which remains supremely impressive when compared with rivals from BMW and Mercedes. FAST FACTS n Nissan Murano n Price: £32,795 n Mechanical: Six-cylinder 3498cc petrol via CVT automatic transmission. n Max power: 256 PS. n Max speed: 130mph. n 0-62mph: 8 seconds. n CO2 emissions: 261 g/km. n Insurance Group: 15.

Ian Johnson

NISSAN’S plush Murano luxury 4x4 is full of surprises.

For instance – if you scratch the paintwork it may not be necessary to worry about insurance claims and body repairs because the surface has the ability to repair itself if the damage is not too great. It’s all down to Scratch Seal paint, which is used in conjunction with elastic resin to increase flexibility and strength. If you have a scratch from a twig, it is possible to pour boiling water on it and dry it off and see that the scratch has gone. Or you could do nothing and over a period of time the resin will ‘heal’ itself and return to its original form. This is a very new move for Nissan and it is expected that the new paint will be used on the company’s new luxury brand Infiniti. This technology is bound to spread throughout the industry and is a first step in a whole new era of paint technology. Then there is the question of cameras, and I don’t mean Gatsos. Nissan is renowned for perfecting the rear-view TV camera and showcased on the Murano is the next step, a kerb camera mounted within the passenger

Independent vehicle information provider HPI has played an instrumental role in helping the Metropolitan Police catch the gang in an operation which also had the co-operation of Exchange & Mart. The gang had made £1.2m by stealing dozens of cars, selling them on and then re-stealing them to sell on again. In some instances, the same cars were stolen and sold a staggering 6 times. They were able to do this by car cloning –replacing the number plates and VIN of a stolen vehicle with that of an almost identical model. The leader of the gang, Nokhiaz Khan set-up a false car dealership, Metropolitan Recovery to provide a cover for his gang's illegal activities. Khan and his gang would perform an HPI Check on any suitable identity before using it for one of their stolen vehicles. The Met passed on the registration numbers of the stolen vehicles to HPI, who then cross-referenced them with HPI Check requests on their system. One name kept coming up - Metropolitan Recovery. This is a classic example of two powerful forces – the police and the industry – uniting to bring down the increasingly clever auto-criminal. Ian Johnson

The Umeed Partnership provides opportunities for disadvantaged women in Pakistan through education and vocational training. They work in the tribal regions of Baluchistan; in slum districts of Lahore, Quetta and Bahawalpur and in low-caste Hindu communities in the Cholister. Mr Perkins described

his visits to these areas and the generous hospitality he received from these very poor people. The charity always consults the male leaders of these communities and with their permission arrange for education centres. The education centres enable them to mix with women from other communities for the first time. In 2006 they resourced an empty school building and now provide primary education for 150 Hindu and Muslim children. They provided funds for 4 teachers both Hindu and Muslim, a hand pump for water and Bangor Rotary Club is now funding a toilet block. Donations are urgently needed.

JANUARY 21, 2009

ROUND-UP RUTHIN 26 DINBYCH 18 WRU DIVISION ONE NORTH ■ MIGHTY Ruthin maintained a longrunning unbeaten streak against their Vale of Clwyd neighbours with a hardfought victory at Cae Ddol on Saturday. Since Dinbych joined the National League in 1991 they have yet to pick up a win over their rivals at senior level. They were close on the opening day of the season when they came back to earn a 16-16 draw at home in a match they could and probably should have won, but it was a different matter on Saturday as Ruthin claimed the points and maintain their challenge at the top of One North. “This was a massive win for us and a great way to start the New Year with a win over our nearest rivals,” said Ruthin captain Joe Palmer. Fly-half Adam Robson slotted over a late penalty to ensure the win, while he also added two penalties and a conversion. Centre Gethin Hughes crossed for a brace of tries and winger Huw Parry also went over for one, while Denbigh hit back with tries from fly-half Tony Jones and scrumhalf Rob Schrimshaw, as centre Llion Edwards kicked two penalties and a conversion. Dinbych led at the break and held Ruthin to 18-18 for a long time only for the hosts to show the greater staying power. The win sees Ruthin move up to second place in the table – level on points with Caernarfon – and seven points shy of Nant Conwy. However, Ruthin have a game in hand over the leaders, and are still to welcome both Caernarfon and Nant to Cae Ddol for what could be crunch games.

RHYL AND DISTRICT 32 RHOSLLANNERCHRUGOG 12 WRU DIVISION TWO NORTH

■ IN-FORM Rhyl made it six consecutive victories with their most complete performance of the season which brought them a much-needed bonus point. A slow start cost Rhyl an early converted try, but centre Gareth van Heerden responded with a try following strong approach play from Barry Picton and Shaks Ngwenya, which Ben Morris improved. Further chances went begging for the hosts before flying winger Stuart Fell-Crook added two tries before the interval. Rhos again nabbed a try at the start of the second stanza but from thereon, astute kicking from Ngwenya gave the Dragons a platform for their lineout to dominate. Stolen possession was quickly spun wide to allow winger Mike Atkinson to scorch in at the corner. Morris beautifully curled over the conversion. A further Morris penalty made it 27-12 before Atkinson rounded off the win which lifts Rhyl to fifth in the table.

MOLD YOUTH 0 RHYL YOUTH 14

■ RHYL took the points in this top of the table clash against a Mold side that had 10 North Wales players in their ranks. After a slow start Rhyl’s forwards got into the game with Dale Blackmore and Callum Jones driving the opposition back before releasing the very quick backs. When Henry Roberts was put away in his own half he made a 60 metre run, offloading to Ian Marshall who crossed under the posts, Adam Kirby converting. After the break Rhyl’s Great Britain inside-centre Kriss Wilkes raced in under the posts from 30 metres, Kirby improving to shatter Mold’s unbeaten home record. ■ CYCLING: RHYL Cycling Club paid homage to its 2008 champions last week with their annual prize presentation at the Farmers Arms, Waen, St Asaph. Amongst the success stories in a year of achievement was Gwyn Lovibond, who took the Under-12 Road Race title and Performance Of The Year for high placings during the season and his first victory at Shrewsbury Circuit in September. Christian Smith scooped the U12 CycloCross title as well as winning the Most Improved Rider award, and GB MTB Orienteering international Sarah Bayliss picked up a hatful of women’s awards. ■ FOOTBALL: RUTHIN Town stayed hot on the heels of the leaders with an excellent 3-1 win at Mold Alex in the Huws Gray Fitlock Cymru Alliance League. Mike Garrod (2) and Tom Matischok notched the all-important goals for the fourth-placed Vale of Clwyd side. Denbigh Town earned a good 1-1 draw at Lex XI, Gareth Martin equalising in the 74th minute after the visitors’ Tony Davies had put through his own goal to give the Lawmen the lead. In atrocious conditions Llandyrnog United had Roger Beech and Graham Owen sent off in a 3-0 defeat at title-chasing Holyhead Hotspur. Dyrny remain bottom and without a win in 19 attempts.

Ups and downs for cross-country runners THERE were mixed fortunes for Prestatyn Running Club’s men at the weekend when they again turned out in strength for the fourth and penultimate fixture of the Grand Prix Express North Wales Cross-Country League in Wrexham. Although Bangor University and Menai, their main challengers for promotion to division one, were both hugely under-strength, Maldwyn Harriers, boosted by the first appearance of the season of Welsh internationals Andi and Tim Davies, who came

second and fourth respectively, won the division two competition by a huge margin and now lead the section. The next day Four Villages halfmarathon deprived the ladies’ team of some members but the five who turned out gave their usual very solid all-round performance, leaving them third in division two with one race left. Placings – Men: 39 Gordon Jones 34.37, 44 Chris Kelly 34.53, 57 Matt Sims 36.09, 60 George Nicholls 36.14, 62 George Nixon 36.23 (2nd M55), 66 Dave Henley 36.46, 91 Dean Longley

PRESTATYN Town Reserves battled back from 3-1 down to make it 3-3 at Llanrug United only for their Barritt Cup round two tie to be abandoned after 79 minutes due to heavy rain and high winds at Eithin Duon.

DINBYCH RFC

YOUTH RUGBY DINBYCH YOUTH 6 LLANGEFNI YOUTH 20 TWO first half penalties from Steffan Morris were all Dinbych had to show for this game at Caeau Les Phillips. It was 6-6 at the turnaround, but two converted tries from a hungrier Cefni after the break – one coming very late – sealed the spoils. ■ Match ball sponsor: Cllr Neville Hughes.

Less than 24 hours later Longley turned in a tremendous time of 121.59 at the half-marathon in Helsby, finishing 37th in a 1,400-strong field.

Town battle back but weather wins

Vale men lose grip on lead

SHOTTON STEEL 19 DINBYCH 2NDS 14 NORTH EAST WALES RUGBY UNION LEAGUE DEFEAT at Shotton in a gritty contest meant Dinbych lost their place at the top of the North East Wales table. Due to the weather and Christmas interval, the Vale side had not played for five weeks and this was evident in the raggedness of some of the play. The Steelmen took the lead with a try but two Nick Ardrey penalties before the break gave the visitors a slender interval advantage. After the changearound, Dinbych started brightly and another Ardrey threepointer extended the lead, but the visiting efforts then faded and a series of errors allowed the hosts a second try, which was converted. With 15 minutes left an improved Shotton score made it 19-9 and this killed Dinbych off, although they did reply with a bulldozing try from number eight Kimi Evans from the final play.

GOOD DEFENDING: Prestatyn’s Darren McGuinness (blue) puts in a good challenge at Llanrug as keeper Jon Dunt looks on. zz210109rugprest.jpg

David Noel Williams handed the Welsh Alliance hosts a 26th minute lead, but Paul Jenkins equalised five minutes before the break. When Williams and Gavin Edwards put the Caernarfon area side two goals to the good midway through the second half it looked grim for the Clwyd League champions, but Ross Hannen (70) and Ashley Bamber (76) squared the tie before the elements caused an early and inconclusive finish. Llandyrnog United Reserves lost 3-2 at home to Abergele Rovers while Llansannan enjoyed an impressive 3-1 success over Flint, Emyr Owen and Gareth Lewis (2) on target.

Seasiders still plagued by awayday woe NEWI CEFN DRUIDS 3 PRESTATYN TOWN 2 WELSH PREMIER LEAGUE THERE was more misery on the road for Prestatyn at a damp and dreary Plaskynaston Lane on Friday night after a hat-trick from Druids talisman Ricky Evans left the Seasiders in despair. Against the run of play Town took a 16th minute lead when Cefn keeper Gerard McGuigan produced a great stop from a Dave Hayes header, but he was unable to prevent the livewire Steve Bowes’s followup slipping through his grasp and over the line. Druids levelled on 20 minutes when from a dubious free-kick Evans’s 25-yard rocket flew in off the underside of the bar. A minute later Mark Stewart’s header beat Town’s WPL debutant keeper Ben Rowley all ends up but fortunately the ball came back off the woodwork. The Seasiders continued to look a threat going forward and when Hayes fed Bowes his lovely touch released 17-year-old debutant Matty Hurdman who raced clear of the home defence and applied a superb finish to make it 2-1 at half time. Ian Griffiths and Dan Evans missed great chances before poor defending allowed Evans to volley in Druids’ equaliser on 66 minutes. Town could have sealed it when Griffiths won a penalty for a push by Aled Rowlands on 76 minutes. However, Griffiths’s poorlystruck kick was comfortably saved by McGuigan. And Prestatyn paid when Evans lashed home the winner from 20 yards with two minutes left.

WITH bids to sign ex-Rhyl stars Andy Moran and Stuart Graves now dead in the water, Prestatyn manager Neil Gibson will step up his quest to recruit experienced players for his squad this week. Gibson has enquired with Porthmadog about the possibility of signing the legendary Marc Lloyd Williams, the all-time highest goalscorer in Welsh Premier history with 291 to his credit spread across six clubs. However, the Town chief was told “Jiws” is under contract, so while maintaining his interest Gibson will now prioritise targetting other options. The Prestatyn boss is also in the hunt for Welshpool Town striker Paul Roberts, number nine in the WPL list with 130 goals, Colwyn Bay defender Tim Brandreth and well-travelled Unibond League operator Lee Mulvaney. One player already at Bastion Road is 17-year-old midfielder

Have I got Jiws for you? Town target Port hitman Matty Hurdman, one of Wrexham’s most promising young players who has been released on loan by the Robins to get some senior matches under his belt. Hurdman enjoyed an excellent debut for Prestatyn in Friday’s 3-2 defeat at Cefn Druids in which the teenage set-piece specialist scored. “Matty didn’t meet up with the lads until an hour before kick-off but fitted in excellently and he’ll be a really useful addition to the squad for as long as we can keep him,” said Gibson. Town twice led at Plaskynaston, but in the end were undone by a hat-trick from master midfielder Ricky Evans. “I was extremely disappointed

with the result, but I can’t be too critical of the players as their attitude and work rate was spoton,” added Gibson. “With the players we had missing we didn’t have the experience on the pitch to see out the game.” Town are now uncomfortably near the relegation zone and are still yet to win away, but will be hoping their unbeaten home record extends for the next three matches with Port Talbot, Newtown and TNS set to come to Bastion Road – all tough tests. “We’re a decent side at home and having a couple of players back will help us,” Gibson said. “The bottom half of the table is quite tightly packed so a couple of wins

could send us into the top half.” Back for Town on Saturday against Port Talbot Town (2.30pm) will be midfielder Ross Hannen, who after a long injury lay-off came through a reserve game at the weekend unscathed, and keeper Jon Dunt, who returns from suspension.

LEGEND Marc Lloyd Williams is wanted by Prestatyn.

RHYL 2 PORTHMADOG 0 WELSH PREMIER LEAGUE

ALTHOUGH Rhyl should have beaten a stubborn Porthmadog outfit more emphatically senior coach Allan Bickerstaff refused to criticise his table-topping side.

“After three weeks without a game we lacked that little bit of sharpness in front of goal, but we set a good tempo from start to finish and did a decent job beating a very decent team,” he said. “The big positive from today is we created a lot of chances; soon there’ll be a time when we convert all those chances and achieve a big win.” Saturday’s victory at Belle Vue ensured the Lilywhites maintain a three-point lead at the Welsh Premier summit. Second-placed Llanelli would have pulled level had they beaten Aberystwyth Town in their game in hand at Stebonheath last night (Tuesday), but the champions have an inferior goal difference to the Lilies. Rhyl will need to maintain the momentum this Saturday when they face a tricky trip to Haverfordwest with Llanelli home again to Technogroup Welshpool. Playing their first match of 2009 at the weekend, the Lilywhites gave debuts to leftwinger Luke Holden and on-loan goalkeeper Michael Jones, while newest recruit Luke Sherbon made a five-minute cameo appearance from the bench. Holden was tremendous, laying on both goals and proving a handful for the Port defence throughout; he was a more than

worthy man-of-the-match contender. “Luke (Holden) was outstanding from start to finish,” said Bickerstaff. “He gives us balance down the left but is also a very good footballer and his work-rate is phenomenal. “Michael Jones did all that was asked of him and it’s up to him now to fight to make the first team place his own, while Luke Sherbon is not just an outstanding player but an outstanding prospect. “I’m not ruling out the possibility of bringing in more players, we’ve got two weeks of the transfer window left, but I’m more than happy with the squad I’ve got.” Rhyl could not have made a better start against Porthmadog as after just 30 seconds Holden won a free-kick on the left, swept a deep delivery into the box, and Greg Strong headed powerfully home. It should have been 2-0 when Rhys Roberts was harshly adjudged to have clipped Jamie Reed in the box, but Matthew Williams’s penalty was brilliantly saved by

ex-Rhyl keeper Dave Vickers. The heroic Vickers superbly denied Williams again before the break with a onehanded stop, but after the penalty saga Port did defend much better. Holden went close soon after the break with an exquisite free-kick, but as the conditions deteriorated so did the game. The introduction of substitute Josh Johnson on 70 minutes livened up Rhyl’s attack, the Trinidad and Tobago international going desperately close with a right foot effort. Finally the hosts made it 2-0 six minutes from time when Holden’s corner was headed in at the back post by Neil Roberts, who picked up the Principality Welsh Premier Player of the Month award for December before the match. ■ Rhyl: Jones, Stones (O’Neill 86), C Roberts, Horan, Strong, D Williams (Sherbon 85), G Owen, Reed (Johnson 70), N Roberts, M Williams, Holden.
