This month, the village has been invited to participate in the Horsham and District Food & Drink festival, so we hope you’ll join us in celebrating local food during the Henfield Food & Drink Festival!

We’re running our own fringe food festival, kicking off with a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party themed Children’s Trail through the village, with over 20 participating businesses. There’s also cupcake decorating and a jam-tart baking competition.

The finale of our mini-festival is ‘HenFood’ Henfield’s first Street Food Festival, taking place on Saturday 10 September in the Post Office garden and library car park. Varied street food stalls, local beer, local musicians and a great Henfield community spirit will come together to create a wonderful afternoon of food, friends and fun in the village. Please come along, sample some street food, listen to the music and help to make this first ever festival a success, so we can do it all again next year!

Read all about it on pages 26-29. At the time of going to print we’re still looking for musicians and performers. If you can help please call Malcolm Eastwood on 01273 493144.

Enjoy September,

Angela Lightburn, local author

Hear to Listen Nicki Dowd, Registered Counsellor in Henfield

Family harmony

Have you ever thought about what your role is in your family?

Perhaps you are the clown or the peacemaker. You might be the saboteur or the secret keeper, or even the caretaker, the organiser or the controller. Have you ever pondered how you got this role, (and believe me, you have one!!) and whether or not it is a part you want to play?

Have you ever considered why it is that you always seem to get the rough end of the stick, feel victimised, cast as a persecutor or end up feeling unheard? As a psychotherapist I believe that we are all influenced by our childhood and that our early experiences are reflected in the adult person we become.

Our siblings form a large part of our childhood years and consequently, they help us make sense of the world around us, and contribute to the way we see others and ourselves.

Throughout a lifetime, the connection between siblings is fraught with resentment, love, hatred, envy, longing and competition.

The powerful influence this has is not only as a result of being one another’s playmate, role model, opponents, or partners in crime, but it is also due to indirect things such as the rivalry for the resources of the family, the rank in the family pecking order or holding the role of favourite child.

How we manage the intense emotions evoked by these situations and negotiate our place among our siblings and our families has a considerable influence on the way we establish ourselves as adults. This also has a fundamental influence on personality development and has consequences for our ability and confidence to form relationships with others throughout our lives.

Our levels of wellbeing and skills in positive development, pro-social behaviour, collaborative techniques, compassion and empathy are all linked to the support of siblings during our early years. Once mastered, these abilities and this expertise can be adopted and applied within other relationships, reflecting emotional understanding and social competence.

However, what might happen if we never get a chance to become proficient in these skills? What if our role has always been the clown and we find it hard to take our responsibilities seriously? What if we have been the caretaker and find ourselves wanting someone to take care of us for a change? Perhaps you find yourself in relationships that follow the same unsatisfactory pattern. Spending time with a counsellor is a way of ensuring time and a safe, confidential space within which you can explore your uncomfortable emotions and express your anxieties around who you are and who you would like to be. It is a chance to examine why you might be the saboteur and what is in your way of sometimes being the peacemaker.

AUDIOLOGY CLINIC AT HENFIELD HAVEN: OPEN FOR BUSINESS! From a dark and dusty garage packed to the ceiling with furniture and junk to a light, airconditioned audiology facility – the transformation of the Action for Deafness clinic at the Henfield Haven has been astonishing. Nigel Parsons and his team of builders have created a two-room clinic with an adjoining conservatory style waiting room, making use of what was an open walkway between the garage and the Haven Café.

Comfortable chairs in bumblebee yellow and black (Action for Deafness colours) and a large flat-screen information TV sit in the waiting room.

A smaller room at the back is used for advice, servicing and re-tubing hearing devices, while the main consultation room contains a sound-proofed hearing test booth.

The official opening took place on 10 August but the clinic has been welcoming customers since

1 2 | B N 5 M A GA ZINE

5 July, with great feedback. The main audiology clinic runs two days a week by referral from your GP, and the maintenance clinic is open every Tuesday morning, 10am-12pm, as a drop-in facility for batteries, re-tubing, maintenance, advice and support.

The bright yellow ribbon was officially cut by Action for Deafness CEO Jane Shaw and Digby Stephenson, Chairman of Henfield Social Enterprise CIC. Jane said; “The team at Action for Deafness are proud to stand with the Henfield Haven and Impact Initiatives as we launch this new facility. We would like to thank the wonderful group of volunteers and organisations who have supported the project and worked together to make it happen, including Henfield Haven, Impact Initiatives and their staff, Nigel Parsons Builders, the Friends of Henfield Haven, Henfield CIC and countless volunteers.” For further information please call the Henfield Haven, 01273 494747.

SEPTEMBER 2016 | News SHERMANBURY PARISH PLANS 2016/17 At the recent Parish meetings held at the Royal Oak in Wineham and the Bull at the Mock Bridge the Parish Council outlined the council’s plans for the next two years which have been developed following the consultation process undertaken for the Wineham and Shermanbury Neighbourhood Plan (WASP), which is now waiting for a Government approved examiner to review our plans.

There are also a number of issues the parish would like to address, including; road safety, village tidiness and maintenance, footpaths and bridleways, flood mitigation, the cemetery and AV8 BOOKS OPENS ON HENFIELD Parish cohesion. For more information and a HIGH STREET chance to get involved, visit the website; www.

AV8 Books is a small family-run aviation bookshop shermanburyparishcouncil.co.uk in Henfield. We stock a wide range of non-fiction Trevor Brown books from the pioneering days of flight to modern day military and civil aircraft. We also have a dedicated section of aviation collectibles including rare signed books, squadron prints and pictures.

One of our notable display items is a Martin Baker ejector seat from a fast jet, which is surrounded by aircraft models, flags and propellers, and is often the highlight of a visit for many of our aviation enthusiasts.

For our little aviators, we have fiction and nonfiction books in our AV8 Kids section and a number of aviation themed toys, games, models, children’s clothes and flying suits. We also sell an array of aviation related greetings cards, balloons and gifts from suppliers such as Woodman Sterne and Disney Planes.

News | SEPTEMBER 2016 PANTO AUDITIONS ARE COMING – “OH YES THEY ARE!”

Photograph courtesy Tom Marshall, Sussex Wildlife Trust

THE LAST DORMOUSE IN SUSSEX?

The pantomime to be staged by the Henfield Theatre Company in early January 2017 will be Dick Turpin, by Paul Reakes. The emphasis of the production is going to be having fun, which will, no doubt, reflect the experience of the audiences.

Please come along if you fancy being involved.

But if you don’t like the idea of being on stage there are all sorts of other roles to play such as helping with the set building, costumes and props or on the more technical side such as sound and lighting. Graeme Muncer is Director of the show and Jane Haines will be Musical Director. The auditions for this wonderful show will take place in the Garden Suite of the Henfield Hall on Tuesday 6 September at 7.30 pm and Sunday 11 September at 2.30pm.

For audition pieces or more information, please e-mail Graeme at Graeme@familymuncer.plus. com or phone Jane on 07803 293380. See also the theatre company website at www. henfieldtheatrecompany.com

Sussex Wildlife Trust is making an urgent appeal to its members and supporters to help protect dormice living in the county. Dormouse numbers have plummeted throughout Britain during the past hundred years and they are now vulnerable to extinction because of habitat loss. This charming nocturnal mammal faces many threats to its continued survival including damage caused by housing and other development.

Sussex Wildlife Trust is hoping to raise £40,000 to improve woodlands on their nature reserves providing ideal habitat for the mice to breed and thrive. Work is already underway at three Sussex Wildlife Trust reserves; Chichester, Hastings and Heathfield. In addition to habitat management, monitoring of dormouse numbers will also take place, providing valuable data in planning for the future protection of this animal.

With help from our members and supporters in the county we will be able to take actions that both improve and link up important pieces of land which will maintain dormice populations on a longterm basis. To support this appeal, visit: HART ELEPHANTASTIC! www.sussexwildlifetrust.or.uk/dormice or donate Nina and the Swains Farm Shop team have raised by phone 01273 497532. a lovely cheque for HART as part of The Rotary Club of Horsham’s ‘Elephantastic!’ Each elephant Amanda Reeves purchased and individually decorated by firms such as Swains raised money for the building of an elephant sanctuary in Tuscany.

SEPTEMBER 2016 | News BN5 BIRDS Henfield’s skies used to be full of Swallows, House Martins and Swifts but, due to loss of habitat and modern farming methods, no more. However, things may be looking up…

This year 21 House Martins have nested on the houses and four Swallows have nested in the open garages in the new Deer Park development and the air has been alive with the sound of their chattering and the sight of their swooping flight.

One of our members has Swift boxes on her house. Swifts used one of them last year and Photograph courtesy Dave Mason she had great expectations for this summer.

Unfortunately, House Sparrows decided to use the BARBARA’S BUDDIES RACE-4-LIFE boxes and, by the time the Swifts arrived in early May, the House Sparrows were settled. For a few TEAM SMASH THEIR TARGET weeks both species wrangled over the boxes but, On a very hot Sunday in June two GPs and 13 eventually they came to an agreement and ended staff and friends from Henfield Medical Centre ran, up with one box each – very democratic! jogged, walked (and almost crawled!) the Race for Life 5k in Horsham Park in memory of their good friend and colleague Barbara Smith, who sadly lost her battle with cancer in Spring this year.

We had set a target of £150 to raise in Barb’s memory but, thanks to the kind generosity of their friends, family, staff and customers at Lloyds Pharmacy and many of the lovely patients in both Partridge Green and Henfield we absolutely smashed it with a final grand total of £1,050!

SCOUT HUT BUILDING APPEAL Great news! Planning consent has been granted for the proposed Scout Centre, which has been redesigned to accommodate community use and already seventeen clubs and associations have expressed interest in using the facilities alongside the Scouts. The project is gaining momentum and it is hoped to begin work in 2017.

Cub leader Sally Birch recently raised £650 by abseiling down the Portsmouth Spinnaker Tower, North West Sussex Seagulls kindly donated £750, refreshments at South View during the Gardens and Arts raised £600 and another £500 at a Jazz Supper bringing the fund to £67,000. Scout Group Chairman, Tony Hills will be taking part in a sponsored bike ride around the Isle of Wight, and the Group Secretary, Michelle Hills and her son Rick will be undertaking a sky dive. To support Tony, Michelle and Rick in their fundraising activities please go to the following links: www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Anthony-Hills www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Michelle-Hills3 www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Rick-Schofield Investigations are under way into getting the project VAT zero rated with HMRC and into drafting promissory notes for donors of materials and seconded labour; these will allow companies to offset the cost of their donations against their tax bill and could provide a massive boost to the fund.

Eighteen children at Warren Playgroup who are starting school in September celebrated the end of their playgroup days and the start of an exciting new chapter in their lives with a special school leavers party. There was plenty of fun and games at the event, which included a bouncy castle and a tea party. Every child was also presented with a cuddly rabbit, as a special memento of their time at Warren Playgroup.

Lesley Bailey, manager of Warren Playgroup, said: “The party was a lovely occasion and a great way to celebrate the children’s time at the playgroup and to wish them well for the future. My team were presented with lots of fantastic presents from parents which we would also like to say a big thank you for.”

SEPTEMBER 2016 | News LLOYDS BANK HENFIELD BRANCH CLOSURE We have made the difficult decision to close the Henfield branch on 7 November 2016. This branch has been identified for closure because of the changing way customers choose to bank with us, which has resulted in customers using it less often, with the number of using the Henfield branch is down each year by 11%, and now the branch has only 20 regular weekly personal and business customers.

88% of our personal customers already use other branches, such as the Burgess Hill branch.

Customers will have their accounts realigned to Burgess Hill and there will be no other impact to the way they manage their accounts. The Post Office is very close by and we will be proactively talking to customers about the service they offer, and the nearest free to use ATM is a short walk away.

The majority of customers also now regularly use alternative branches or use other ways to bank such as online and telephone banking to complete their banking needs. We apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause and have informed customers of the closest alternative branches.

LINK ROAD BETWEEN DEER PARK AND HENFIELD LEISURE CENTRE Henfield residents may recall previous articles about the design of a new link road between Deer Park and the Leisure Centre. BN5 is now pleased to report that an architect design of the proposed road has now been prepared and is shown above.

Henfield Parish Council has secured funding approval from West Sussex County Council to utilise Section 106 monies allocated when the third phase of St Peter’s Meadow development was constructed and at its July Parish Council meeting approval was given for both the design and the use of these funds for the construction.

The next steps are for our appointed Architects to organise the appropriate surveys of the site which will support a detailed design and Planning Application. Whilst there is still some work to do before construction can begin Henfield Parish Council believe that we are still on target to have the road and car park available for use by 2018.

A lively auction hosted by Russell Knapton with great enthusiasm and wit followed an excellent dinner and spirited dance music was provided

by The Flaming Mojos for the remainder of the evening. The total profit for the event amounted to £2,400 which was split equally between St. Catherine’s Hospice and the Lower Beeding Churches. Very many thanks to all who attended and made it such a happy and enjoyable evening.

HENFIELD NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN JUDICIAL REVIEW The Henfield Neighbourhood Plan (HNP) is being subjected to a Judicial Review on 4 October 2016, with the intention of the claimants to quash the HNP. This application for a Judicial Review has been lodged by Stonegate Homes Ltd and Littleworth Properties Ltd against Horsham District Council’s (HDC’s) decision to ‘make’ the HNP on the 27th April this year, following on from the referendum to adopt the Plan on 12 April.

The claimants are the owners of the old Sandgate Nursery site in West End Lane that was refused planning permission for 72 houses by HDC on 25 November 2014. The decision was challenged by an appeal that was heard in March and May of this year and was called in by the Secretary of State. The final decision has yet to be made.

The claimants contest that the HNP failed to lawfully assess reasonable alternatives to the spatial strategy as established by the HNP, in particular the reasonable alternative of permitting development on the western edge of Henfield.

They further contest the failure to consider any alternatives to the Built Up Area Boundary (BUAB) of Henfield as established in the HNP and act rationally in the selection of the BUAB. Finally, they

contest the failure of Council and the Examining Inspector to give any adequate reasons as to why the HNP meets EU regulations.

This Judicial Review is a real threat to the HNP, which took three years of hard work by the local community to produce. The democratic process, supported by 94.3% (1,449 Henfield residents) of those who voted in the referendum in favour of the Plan, has been placed in jeopardy by developers who appear to give scant regard to the views of local residents.

HDC is the defendant in this action, with Henfield Parish Council listed as an interested party. We have been working with HDC and its legal advisers to defend the Plan and have submitted a Witness Statement providing evidence as to how the Plan came forward. In due course we will be writing to our local MP, Nick Herbert, and urge residents who feel strongly about this issue to write to Henfield Parish Council and their local MP (The Rt Hon Nick Herbert MP, House of Commons, London, SW1A 0AA, or email nick@nickherbert.com), expressing their concerns.

The Grasshopper Warbler throws his voice like a ventriloquist so he can attract a mate while making his enemies think he is in another part of the field.

Clever! The Blackbird while being a beautiful singer also gives a grating alarm call to warn all the other birds of impending danger. The Ringed Plover alternatively gives an alarm call to attract his enemy and then runs off the nest feigning a broken wing.

SEPTEMBER 2016 | News HURST FESTIVAL RETURNS FOR ITS TWELFTH YEAR

Photograph by Emma Osman, BN5 magazine

FULKING FAIR SUCCESS Fulking Fair and Fun day on Saturday 30 July was a tremendous success in the North Town Field.

We had perfect weather (it was raining in Brighton and Ringmer!!) and interesting rural trade stalls as well as villagers’ stalls in the Street. Bubble Pop contributed greatly to the childrens’ games.

Teas and cakes went down very well in the village hall garden and Burgess Hill Rumblers supplied exhilarating music. We plan to recapture our 2014 Argus Community Event of the Year in 2017! Please put Sunday 30 July 2017 in your diaries now.

CLEAR YOUR DITCH WHILE THE SUN SHINES If you are a riparian ditch owner, now is the time to clear summer growth in your ditch before winter returns, as when the weather is dry, it is easier to stand inside a ditch to cut it back. West Sussex County Council is keen for riparian owners, who are responsible for the upkeep of their ditches, to make the most of the warmer weather and clear them out.

Ditches are watercourses designed to drain the surrounding area or hold water, and removing vegetation, grass, weeds, shrubs or any other debris helps water run freely and prevents flooding.

If your ditch needs heavy clearance work, the County Council’s Operation Watershed fund can offer help. For more information, email operation. watershed@westsussex.gov.uk West Sussex County Council

In addition to the twelve different Ploughing Classes including Novice & Open, Vintage and, the great crowd-puller, the Horse Ploughing, there will be a demonstration again of Steam Ploughing with some massive engines at work. There will also be a selection of other rural based attractions including the parade of hounds from the Crawley & Horsham Hunt and the very popular terrier racing; ferret racing; clay pigeon shoot; competitive training by the Utility Gundog Society including scurry open to all and demonstration.

Where the Wild Things are

S

eptember feels like a tipping point of the year, branches weighed down with fruits, meadows collapsing under the weight of dew laden grasses, creatures preparing to hibernate and gather in food.

Sunshine bakes the last flush of colour in our gardens and countryside, offering a month of grace before autumn is truly here.

In the fullness of the year, wilder, untouched places where no one mows the grass, no one prunes, and no one interferes – show that for richness of wildlife they have all that they need, and we can learn everything from them. We can all find these places if we look for them and are curious. Some of them may be under threat, but it is still worth witnessing the cycles of life that carry on year after year, peacefully and with no fanfare.

There are a few such places near where we live. In a rough meadow, surrounded by broad woodland borders, we go to pick large blackberries filling rows of disused polytunnels open to the elements.

All that remains now are the rusting metal arches, strangely picturesque and full of brambles and buzzing grasshoppers. Morning sun begins to gently pour down upon this quiet corner as we stand in the long baked grass, yellow ragwort and broad white flowers of hogweed as tall as we are.

It looks like a mini rainforest canopy, and in many ways this uncut field has similar layers of plant life. Winding through the grass are purple vetches, striped pink bindweed, down on the meadow floor is clover, yellow rattle, speedwell, buttercups and daisies.

It is a winged creature’s heaven, in the growing warmth butterflies, moths and bees stir from the grasses and emerge to stretch their wings and 3 4 | B N 5 M A GA ZINE

roam for nectar. The flowers of Yellow Ragwort, so bad for horses and cattle, are an essential food plant here. We watch a Peacock butterfly poke its proboscis into the flowers, slowly flapping its wings to show illuminated colours within. There are purple thistle heads too, but the yellow ragwort seems to have all the allure of an ice cream milkshake. Painted Lady butterflies also appear to feed on the flowers, showing the fresh colours of new adults already emerged from a chrysalis.

Earlier in summer, the spiky black caterpillars will have woven a silken pod between leaves, and during August and September emerge from the pupa. If you see a dried brown little case hanging from a plant, or stuck to a tree this month, the Painted Lady butterfly will be inside, days from hatching. They will make journeys of astonishing length back to Africa and southern Europe in autumn, at great altitude and speed, but some will die here.

Many ragwort plants are also being eaten by the striped caterpillars of the Cinnabar Moth, it is the only plant they must have for survival, their gorgeous scarlet and black wings emerge next May. In the thick canopy of hazel next to us, speckled wood butterflies hover in the dappled shade, and I photograph a Comma butterfly basking high up on a leaf.

This rough place is a perfect habitat for a myriad of plants and creatures – we can encourage wild places in gardens and parks – and bring the lifecycles of nature closer towards our own lives to remind us of what is valuable.

House of Healing

“

Here are the words of two of my recent clients at the House of Healing. If what they say intrigues you, then find out lots more on my website. If you still have unanswered questions, feel free to email or phone me. I hope we speak soon.

Jill

Margaret, Small Dole, 6 sessions

”

I visited Jill not knowing whether I believed in the power of healing and I had no idea what, if any, benefits I would receive. After a few difficult, stressful years in my personal life and with pain in my hips to boot, which in turn stopped me from exercising and made me put on weight, I had a lot to discuss. Jill was very calm and listened carefully to my problems and recommended both JAET and energy work to see what could be achieved.

I found the energy work wonderfully relaxing and interesting, and was frankly amazed at the heat and sensations I received whilst she very gently touched my body. I’m now sleeping better, I have more energy and there has been significant improvement in the pain in my hips too. Meanwhile JAET, an allergy elimination technique based on acupressure, was really quick and whilst I didn’t notice anything at the time, my thoughts about food have miraculously changed and I do appear to have lost inches without any effort, which Jill says should continue.

After 6 weeks, I feel generally more relaxed and I’m told I seem happier and more alive. Whether this is down to Jill I don’t know for sure, but I can think of no other reason for the changes I have experienced. I would certainly recommend you should give it a go.

Lucy, Fulking, 20 sessions I had been suffering from chronic pain in my lower back and hip for some time but had resisted seeking help as I was unsure what kind of treatment would be most effective. I knew I needed some physical therapy but suspected it needed something else less tangible to work in conjunction with this.

For me, the real value of Jill was that she is an intuitive and accomplished practitioner in several disciplines, and most importantly for me, she is sufficiently adaptable to be able to tailor her approach to suit each individual session as appropriate. I felt we were able to work well together in identifying the relevant issues and for her to then facilitate my healing.

I found Jill to be thoughtful and flexible, knowledgable and professional and the setting peaceful and conducive to well-being.

South Downs Way Relay

I

n the still small hours of Saturday 4 June, while most residents were still blissfully asleep, two minibuses crept quietly out of Henfield en-route to Beachy Head. On board were two teams, six in each, of runners plus drivers/co-drivers/timekeepers making 20 in-all Henfield Joggers, heading to the start line of the annual South Downs Way Relay.

Needing to be at the rendezvous at 4am, and tense with nerves, many had barely slept. Several didn’t really bother! The return journey at 1am Sunday morning was similarly quiet, though punctuated by a snore here and there. In between, had been many adventures at both a personal and group level.

For many running Clubs along the South Coast the South Downs Way Relay (SDWR) is the highlight of the calendar. It is a relay run from Beachy Head to Winchester along the famous trail. The full, arduous, 97 miles are completed in one day (actually there is a cut-off time of 14 hours) over 18 ‘legs’ by teams of six runners, who each complete three legs each. At any level this is challenging, but throw in the uneven tracks, the climbs (and descents) of each valley, whatever the weather can bring to the party, finding your own way between the changeover points – it all has to be dealt with along the way.

And this isn’t like a ‘fun run’. There is no massed start, or cheering crowds to spur you on. Quite the opposite. In fact, imagine how motivating it is to pull up at a grey, totally empty, car park at 5am with the only human company the man who is opening up the public toilets! For this is reality, the two Henfield Joggers teams along with all the other 61 teams, are motivated not just at a very personal level, for some of the legs are very individual battles with yourself, your fitness and your navigation skills, but also at a team level as the desire not to let your

01273 494002

colleagues down is a very strong feeling!

The event itself is 30 years old this year and Henfield have been associated with this event for most of its history, particularly because of the marshalling point at Saddlescombe where the South Downs Way crosses the road at a riskstrewn point just below Devils Dyke. Considered the most dangerous of all the 18 marshalled changeover points Henfield Joggers marshal this comprehensively (with a 15-person team) to ensure maximum safety. It’s a complex arrangement that the organisers rely on Henfield to do safely at a point which could easily be a course blackspot.

One of the team, Lesley Kilner, sums up what it means to be part of this great day: “From a less experienced, old slow runner’s point of view this was a fabulous event... Team spirit was to the fore, and as predicted by others who’d undertaken this event before, you gave it your very best shot because you didn’t want to let your team down.”

She went on: “We were blessed by almost perfect weather conditions, a bit cloudy which made it just right for running. The South Downs Way is sublime and running parts of it may have been the most physically demanding thing I have ever done but it was equally one of the most memorable and I will be forever grateful for the opportunity to take part.”

Despite being one of the smallest running clubs spanning the South Downs Way, Henfield are consistently complimented on the fantastic number of volunteers and what a friendly and vocally supportive bunch we are! Fancy a crack at the South Downs Way Relay next year? I’m afraid it’s a closed event, by invitation only….

Henfield will be back – if invited!

I

Don’t put a tick in that box!

’m happy to admit that up until now I’ve been one of those people who revelled in the fact that I’ve been able to avoid school holidays when taking a week off. When travelling “off peak”, not only is it cheaper, but you get that smug feeling that everything is a bit quieter, a bit easier, a bit less stressful… I hate queueing and would happily take a half hour detour to avoid a 15 minute traffic jam - just so that I feel like I’m making some progress. Seeing the chaos at Dover as everyone tried to get away for the summer holidays this year made me quake in my boots! However, that has now all changed and the honeymoon period is over. Our eldest son has started school, so we are joining the ranks of other parents and looking at the half term week for a holiday. I suppose we could always take a detour via Ireland on the way to France to avoid Dover, but even to my warped sense of logic that doesn’t seem a good idea!

Travel to the continent has become a lot easier and cheaper in recent years which has meant more and more pet owners choosing to get their dog (or cat) a pet passport to accompany them on their holidays. Rules and regulations associated with the pet travel scheme have also been relaxed making the whole process much simpler. In order to get a passport all you have to do is have your dog or cat microchipped and vaccinated against rabies. Three weeks after the rabies vaccine has been administered, you can travel. It’s more straightforward on the return leg too – for dogs a tapewormer between 24 and 120 hours before you return to the UK is all that’s required.

The increase in travelling pets does raise concerns regarding diseases and illnesses which can be picked up on the continent, or more seriously transmitted to the local pet population on return to the UK. There is no longer a requirement on the pet travel scheme for dogs and cats to be treated for ticks before they return to the UK. However earlier this year three dogs in Essex, which had never travelled, were diagnosed with Babesiosis. Babesiosis is a disease exotic to the UK which is transmitted by ticks and causes serious illness which can be fatal. Lungworm is another previously exotic pathogen which has now become endemic in the UK - Surrey and Sussex being the two most affected areas. Lungworm causes a variety of symptoms including bleeding disorders and can also be fatal.

So, what is the message of this rather gloomy section? While it’s great that pet travel has become more accessible, pet owners need to be aware of the health risks associated with these developments. Many exotic diseases like Babesiosis are transmitted by biting insects such as ticks and biting flies, lungworm is transmitted by eating infected slugs and snails. Prevention of these pathogens is as important as ever and is brought about by either eliminating the intermediate host or by tackling the parasite head on.

SEPTEMBER 2016 | Local interest

New school year,

new Headteacher for St Peters!

S

t Peter’s CofE Primary School will be welcoming lots of new faces this September, including a new Headteacher – Mr Steve McCulley!

Steve actually started working at St Peters for two days a week towards the end of the summer term (after acting Headteacher Laura Roberts went on maternity leave), which gave him the perfect opportunity to get acquainted with daily life at St Peters. This is when I met with him to find out a bit more about his background and his plans for St Peter’s.

Steve actually began his working life working for the Ministry of Defence before deciding that his real vocation in life was education. He started in special education, working with secondary schoolage children in residential schools. After reaching the most senior level he could without moving into an office-based role, Steve decided to re-train as a primary school teacher. His first primary teaching post was in Epsom and from there he moved to Crawley as Assistant Head and Inclusion Manager.

For the past eight years Steve has been Deputy Headteacher at Holy Trinity Primary School in Cuckfield where he has also been, more recently, Acting Headteacher.

I asked him what appealed to him about joining to St Peter’s School: “It’s like when you are looking to buy a house, you know within the first 10 seconds of walking inside whether it’s the ‘one’ or not and

01273 494002

it’s the same with schools. Any teacher will tell you the same.” He went on to explain: “Every school is unique. The children are wonderful here and they are very confident and ‘switched on’ with their learning. The school is also very self-aware – it knows what it is, what it needs to do and it knows the journey it’s on. It’s hugely exciting to be a part of that journey.”

Whilst Steve has plans for St Peter’s, he makes it very clear that he is not one for introducing change for change’s sake. “Laura Roberts did an outstanding job as Acting Headteacher last year and I look forward to her returning from maternity leave so that we can build a strong leadership partnership.”

Steve talked about his ideas for the future: He went on: “I want to give more power to the voice of pupils, giving them more opportunity to run the school, whether that be leading assembly’s, liaising with parents or working with the leadership team. I’m already working with Reverend Paul who is very open to new ideas and development.”

Having worked in education for 29 years, Steve has a wealth of experience to bring to St Peter’s as well as huge amounts of enthusiasm: “I see great things for the future of St Peter’s: the children here have enormous potential as does the school as a whole.”

Local Lives

As part of our local lives feature we are delighted to introduce Shermanbury resident Angela Lightburn who has recently published her first book ‘An annoyance of neighbour’s’.

What led you to write the book?

Contrary to popular belief, it came out of being part of the team which developed the Neighbourhood Plan for Shermanbury. In consulting with the residents of the parish, we were made aware of the problems they faced and their wish to create an active, strong, safe and friendly community.

It is surprising how often you overhear conversations at the hairdressers, in the supermarket queue, on the train, bus, in a pub or café about neighbours, including stories about kind neighbours helping each other out.

As a psychologist I am fascinated by how people interact, how we can say one thing but our body language can imply something completely different and the minefield of undercurrents, subtexts and etiquette involved in forced relationships such as those between neighbours.

The idea was born out of all these things and once I started writing I couldn’t stop! Writing the book has prompted me to persuade Shermanbury Parish Council to introduce a Good Neighbour Award, which launches this year.

What were the best and worst aspects of writing the book?

I really enjoyed all the research and had great fun writing the quiz which still makes me laugh!

01273 494002

The worst part was waiting to see if it would be accepted by the publishers.

How have your neighbours responded to the publication of the book?

Most of them have bought a copy (or two) and we’re still friends!

What’s your favourite event in the local calendar?

It has to be Cowfold Festival which is held in July on the village green. It’s a great mix of stalls selling books, jewellery, plants and bric-a-brac, and there’s a beer tent, a BBQ, teas, homemade cakes and ice creams, over 100 fabulous classic cars, a fun fair with dodgems and a big wheel, dog show, singing and dancing displays, ferret racing, the occasional celebrity and an amazing flower and produce show. Best of all it’s free to get in including the evening event with live bands.

There’s something for the whole family and all the proceeds go to local charities.

What’s your favourite local walk/view/place?

I love the walk along the bridleway known as The Grove between the A281 and Frylands Lane. It changes with the seasons and there are some lovely views across the River Adur to the South Downs. It goes past St Giles church, which was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, and at the eastern end there is a small chapel and cemetery in Frylands Lane which is a peaceful, contemplative place.

Do you have a favourite local pub or place to eat?

We’re lucky to be able to walk to The Royal Oak on Wineham Lane where they do great food, wine and beer and the landlord, Mike, is very welcoming and a great host.

Can you give us a top tip?

Learn to differentiate between the urgent and the important.

ince rebranding as FeetPlus Henfield earlier this year, little has changed except the signage at the clinic in Furners Lane.

The Team at FeetPlus; Laura, our receptionist, Charles Tovey and Becky Maxwell; who currently care for our Henfield podiatry patients, are now joined by our new and experienced podiatrist Pat Turnbull, herself, a future Henfield resident.

Pat has been a podiatrist for over 20 years.

In addition to general chiropody & podiatry treatments, she specialises in painless laser therapy for verrucae, podiatric acupuncture and also provides a pampering medical pedicure service too.

and The Australian Podiatry Association. She has vast experience of diagnosing and treating all types of foot problems, skin and nail infections and those associated with poor foot function which can affect the knees, hips. back and neck. She practices all aspects of general Podiatry and Chiropody, Sports Medicine, Nail Surgery, Acupuncture, Laser Therapy, Manipulation and Postural assessment.

Pats research in America covered skin and nail infections. Pat spent 2 years studying verrucae at University in Glasgow over 20 years ago and treats them with Low Level Laser Therapy which is a painless, non-invasive, non-thermal successful treatment which does not require keeping the foot out of water.

Western Acupuncture can give relief for many painful foot and knee problems especially overuse, post trauma or osteo-arthritic problems

Pat has an ongoing research study to reduce falls in the elderly thus avoiding a fall and allowing many people to live active, independent lives. She has implemented the work carried out on Astronauts pre and post flights to the International Space Station when zero gravity can cause the same problems as being chair or bed bound.

Pat has been working in Australia for the last 4 years where as the Podiatry expert she wrote in a Q and A column for ‘Yours’ magazine Australia.

She now writes for ‘Yours’ in the UK.

Foot pain is not an inevitable result of ageing- it is not normal and nobody should expect it as they get older. It is most important to keep your feet pain free and healthy allowing you to stay more active.

Pat qualified with a BSc degree in Podiatric Medicine from Salford University. She is registered Pat has moved to live in Henfield where she works in both UK and Australia and has studied with a at Feet Plus in Henfield .

Tax implications of divorce/separation Whilst divorce can have some serious tax implications, the act of separation is in fact more significant from a tax perspective.

Understandably, many couples may have no immediate appetite for addressing anything beyond their emotional fallout. They may lose sight of the real financial benefits to the family as a whole that can be achieved if a coordinated separation is put in place with clear timelines and tax elections.

Early and accurate fact finding is necessary. It is essential to look at where parties reside and are domiciled for tax purposes. Tax advice in all countries in which the couple has assets should be taken without delay. Most tax regimes run to a calendar year, the UK being an exception.

It can take some time for both parties to work out what is in the financial pot. It may take a bit longer, even with legal and financial advice, to identify and explore the range of possible financial outcomes. In legal terms, there is no one right solution. Instead there is a range of possible blends of division of capital and income, which can be tailored for each family. If possible, values of assets and potential tax calculations should be made and agreed between advisers and the couple. Assets are normally valued just before negotiations start, rather than at the date of separation.

Capital Gains Tax (CGT) is an important consideration and can have significant implications on how a couple decide to sort out their financial arrangements and even when they decide to separate.

Married couples who live together enjoy the ability to transfer assets between themselves free of CGT under inter-spouse tax rules. If a couple separates, then the inter-spouse rules are lost from the beginning of the following tax year. For example, if you move out of the marital home in September

after a disastrous summer, then from 6 April 2017 you will no longer be able to transfer assets to your spouse without possibly creating a CGT liability.

Such assets include share portfolios, buy-to-let property, land and second homes.

From a tax point of view, the earlier in the tax year that you separate, the more time you have to sort out the finances - before losing the inter-spouse benefits come the following 6 April. Although that is not going to be practical for most couples, it is worth thinking about. The reality for most people is that by the time they start to think about tax planning on separation, the CGT exemption will have been lost.

For Inheritance Tax (IHT) purposes, transfers between spouses are exempt transfers right up until the final annulment of the marriage or civil partnership. Transfers made on divorce, or for the maintenance of the family, are exempt from IHT too.

My message is simple - anyone planning to separate or divorce should speak to a tax adviser as well as their lawyer. Working together might sound slightly strange, when a marriage is ending, but needs must!

With lenders demanding higher percentage deposits and mortgages available to fewer, any capital or Income Tax savings that can be made are going to be very welcome.
