Charity group which has raised £750k to keep Plaza open for the past 20 years celebrates reopening of Waterloo outlet

The church on Warren Road

Church to close after 122 years - but future use of the building has been thrown into doubt AN historic church in Blundellsands is to close after 122 years with the building’s future use now in doubt.

Blundellsands United Reformed Church which was first formed in 1897, will close its doors for a final service next month. The majority of its 17 members will switch to Crosby United Reformed Church, in Eshe Road.

The regular congregation will meet in prayer for the last time on Sunday, October 13 and members of the public are welcome to attend.

The future use of the building in Warren Road is unknown, and although there are discussions to keep it open for the use of the community, a full closure of the site has not been ruled out.

A CHARITY outlet in Waterloo which has over the years raised more than £750,000 to keep the town’s Plaza cinema running, has reopened following a much-needed revamp - thanks to the hard-work of volunteers.

The Plaza Community Cinema Shop, on St John’s Road, received the Mayor of Sefton’s approval when Cllr June Burns performed a special ceremony on Monday to signal a new fundraising era for the organisation.

The shop is described as a ‘vital source of funds’ for the Plaza Cinema and over the last 20 years it has raised an amazing three-quarters-of-a-million pounds.

It had to close down recently to allow volunteers from local charity ‘Together Everyone Achieves More’ (TEAM) to carry out the vital work so it can continue to support the Waterloo cinema.

Kieran Owens, who not only created TEAM but is also a Plaza Cinema trustee, told the Champion: “The shop has raised in excess of £750,000 and is the main source of funding for the cinema. Without the shop and the amazing support from the donations received by local people, the Plaza would not be here today.

Open Morning Saturday 5th October 10 am to 12 noon Liverpool 2 container port is set to expand.

Next phase of port expansion to start Ten more cantilever gantry cranes to be built at docks Report by Champion Reporter A COMPANY has been chosen to deliver an expansion of the deep-water Liverpool 2 container terminal.

The next phase of the port’s development includes the addition of ten cantilever rail-mounted gantry cranes, and three ship-to-shore cranes.

There will also be additional reefer points installed to allow the terminal to handle additional refrigerated containers at the Port of Liverpool.

Civil engineering firm McLaughlin & Harvey will carry out the work which is set to be completed in

2021. Detailed designs and preparatory civil engineering works are now under way with the first cranes set to arrive in November.

The opening phase of the £400million container port was built by Bam Nuttall, but a sinkhole appeared at the berth of the port in February 2017, three months after its opening.

Remedial works completed in November 2017.

Peel Ports chief executive Mark Whitworth, said: “Since originally announcing our expansion plans we have gone on to secure some of the world’s major shipping lines as customers at the Port of Liverpool.

“That, and our growing customer base, is a vote of confidence in the North of England as a competitive route to international markets and a major port for global trade.

“The next phase of development will provide even more capacity to help meet growing demand.”

Historic church to close after 122 years

RNLI praised for its ‘brilliant work’

From page 1

Interim Minister Michael Marshall said: “The fellowship has been witnessing in the community for 122 years and on October 13, at 3.30pm, we will hold our last service – everyone is welcome to join in this celebration of the work of the church.”

Once the final service has taken place, many members of the congregation will be worshiping with Crosby United Reformed Church and anyone is welcome to join them there at 10:30am on Sunday mornings.

United Reformed Church Mersey Moderator Jacky Embrey added: “Our vision for the future is that the two congregations will come together, with Blundellsands Methodist Church, to form one congregation, sharing their resources and working together for the increase of God’s Kingdom and in service to the local community.”

Report by Danielle Thompson THE RNLI has been praised for the work it does helping to save lives at sea after the charity was criticised by a national newspaper.

Sefton Central MP Bill Esterson leapt to its defence this week saying the ‘attack on the overseas spending of the lifeguard charity was indefensible’.

Reports in The Times accused the charity of ‘diverting donations to give burkinis to Muslim women’ in Tanzania while laying off staff at home and funding crèches in Bangladesh – where, according to the charity, around 40 youngsters drown every day.

The story was followed up in the Mail on Sunday, with MP Nigel Evans accusing the charity of ‘risking its reputation’ funding overseas projects. The charity responded that it was ‘proud’ of its antidrowning programmes abroad but that the UK remains its priority.

Mr Esterson is keen to promote the charity ’s ‘Boss in a Boat’ fundraiser, which takes place at Crosby Lakeside Adventure Centre at 1.30pm this Sat-

urday (September 28). Employees are encouraged to nominate their boss to take part in a boat race, with the size of paddle given to the boss determined by the amount of money they raise for the cause.

The RNLI is an independent charity that has saved more than 139,000 lives at sea since its foundation in 1824. It

provides 24-hour lifeboat search and rescue services around the coasts of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.

Volunteer lifeboat crew members give their time for free, but the RNLI incurs costs relating to training, equipment, lifeboats and shore facilities.

According to the latest figures from the RNLI, the charity spent £163.5m on running costs in 2018: 53% on lifeboats, property and equipment; 27% on servicing lifeboats; 12% on lifeguard rescue; 6% on safety, education and awareness and 2% overseas.

Mr Esterson said: “The RNLI do brilliant work keeping people safe in my constituency and across the UK. They also spend a small amount of funds abroad in order to save the most vulnerable people on the planet from drowning.

“It was a despicable and indefensible attack by a national newspaper on the charity, which is facing significant funding challenges.”

Plaza shop reopens From page 1

“After many years of struggling in a shop that was in desperate need of modernisation, TEAM has come in and with a wealth of volunteer support from local businesses have transformed the tired old shop into something amazing.

“The shop in its new form will be able to take many more donations including donations of furniture and electrics that in the days gone by were turned away due to space restrictions.

“All the proceeds from the charity shop go directly into the Plaza so that we can make improvements to this very special building and to keep the prices low so that the whole community can enjoy the benefits of low cost cinema going.

“The Plaza has held prices since 2010 thanks to the amazing funds that come from the charity shop and its fantastic volunteers.”

Police find amphetamines during search of house A CROSBY man has appeared in court for possession of amphetamines when his house was searched by police.

Peter Fletcher,44, of Longfield Walk, appeared at Sefton Magistrates Court on September 18 where he pleaded guilty to possession of the class B drug.

Chris Maloney, prosecuting, said that police executed a search warrant at his previous home on Harrowby Road, Seaforth, on August 18, when they discovered a quantity of white powder which was later tested and found to be amphetamine. .

“It was entirely consistent with personal use,” Mr Maloney said, adding that Fletcher had 18 convictions on record for 40 offences.

Representing himself Fletcher said he had nothing to say.

The magistrates fined him £80 and ordered that he pay costs and victim surcharge of £117.

MERSEYSIDE Fire & Rescue Service’s oldest surviving former firefighter, who grew up in Bootle and now lives in Maghull, relived his pass-out when he was presented with a restored axe by the Chief Fire Officer at the Service’s Heritage Centre.

Thomas Beevers, 102 originally received the axe in 1950 when he passed out from his recruit course.

When the great-great-grandfather attended MFRS’ pass-out parade in April 2019 as an invited guest, he told the Chief Fire Officer about his axe but mentioned it had rusted in his shed.

The Chief offered to have it restored at MFRS’ workshops and Thomas, known as Tom, said MFRS could keep the axe in the Heritage Centre.

However, it was decided to surprise Thomas by returning the axe to him – rust-free and newly mounted on a plaque made from salvaged mahogany from Croxteth Fire Station along with original cap badges from Warrington and City of Liverpool.

Before the surprise presentation, Thomas enjoyed a tour of the centre which included looking at a collection of historic vehicles and photos, reminiscing about his time with the service and enjoying afternoon tea.

He also climbed up into the driving seat of a 1931 Leyland Metz turntable ladder engine which is on display in the centre – the very same engine he had operated during his firefighting career.

Thomas said: “It was a great day, remembering the old times - and the axe is fantastic. It was sitting in my shed and got so rusty… it’s not rusty any more!

“I’ll take it home and show it to my family and friends.”

Born in 1917, Thomas joined the Army in 1935 where he served in the Royal Tank Regiment and during World War II was posted in Egypt,

During his time with the brigade, he worked at a number of stations including Long Moor Lane and Hatton Garden.

He eventually left the brigade for a job on the docks.

Tom has a daughter, a granddaughter, three

great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.

One of his family is following in his footsteps and embarking on a military career.

Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service CFO, Phil Garrigan, said: “We thought it would be a fitting gesture to restore the axe for Thomas and surprise him with it.

“He enjoyed his visit with us and kept us entertained with his memories of the past.

Thomas is an inspiration to us all.”

RESIDENTS can now download a new app to help prevent suicide.

The Stay Alive app, which was developed by charity Grassroots, is a pocket-sized suicide prevention resource which gives people the tools to start a conversation about mental health.

FIREFIGHTERS are urging businesses in the borough to check their premises are safe from the risk of fire, as part of a new safety campaign.

The National Fire Chiefs Council’s (NFCC) Business Safety Week 2019, which has just ended, aims to provide those who have responsibility for businesses and public buildings with ongoing information and advice to reduce the number of fire incidents and false alarms in the workplace both of which impact business safety and productivity.

The safety week encourages all firms to ensure they have taken the steps required by law to protect their business and employees from fire.

Advice has been issued on preventing arson attacks, reducing false alarms and, if needed, fire safety advice for premises with sleeping accommodation adjacent or above them.

By law, employers should make sure equipment is installed, maintained and used correctly, whether it

Councillor Ian Moncur, Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for Health and Wellbeing, said: “The Stay Alive app really could help to save lives from suicide. “ I would urge everyone to download the app so that in the unfortunate circumstance that you encounter someone who needs help, the app is ready and waiting to assist The Stay Alive app you.”

is owned or leased by the business. Merseyside Fire and Rescue area manager Guy Keen, who is also the NFCC ’s Protection and Business Safety vice chair, said: “About one third of fires in the workplace are due to electrical faults and misuse of electrical equipment. The majority of these fires are likely to be preventable by taking some simple measures, businesses can learn about how to make their premises and their staff safer from fire.

“We know that many small businesses never recover from the damage caused by fire, so it is really important to factor in fire safety.”

Chair of NFCC's Protection and Business Safety Committee, Mark Hardingham added: “Fire can have a devastating effect on businesses. The NFCC is committed to supporting business and linking them to their local fire and rescue service who can help and advise them on reducing their fire risk.

"We encourage business owners to get in touch with their local fire service and find out about the help available.”

After-school club needs donations to expand AN after-school club for youngsters has launched an appeal to raise funds to help them expand the service.

The Mix, which opened earlier this year inside the function room of The George pub is held each Friday and offers a free place for children to attend.

Youngsters can take part in activities and games, and even have their dinner at reasonable prices.

They organise trips and allow young musicians and singers to perform.

Organisers are now asking locals to donate £2 to help them cover the costs of running the youth club and hopefully expand to open on a second evening.

The Mix opens every Friday evening, 4-7pm for children aged 13-17 and the two fully-qualified Youth Workers run the club.

‘Little Legs’ on new mission to raise money for charity Report by Tom Martin A FITNESS fanatic from Crosby is facing up to one of his toughest challenges yet when he attempts to run 200 miles and climb the highest mountain in North Africa across only six days.

Carl Wilson, 57, flew to Marrakesh, in Morocco, last Friday (September 20) before running straight from the airport for 40 miles to a town called Imlil, which is at the base of Mount Toubkal.

Not content with just running, Carl also wants to scale the 13,671ft mountain, before returning back to the bottom and then continuing his run to a city called Ouzarette.

Carl hopes to complete the whole challenge in six or seven days and will carry all his food, clothing and other supplies because he won’t be supported by anyone else.

The Champion has reported over the years how Carl, who calls himself ‘Little Legs’, has taken part in different fitness challenges to raise money for charity.

In 2015, Carl ran on a treadmill at Lime Street train station for 24 hours without stopping, and a year later he broke a World Record for climbing 66,000ft on a Jacobs Ladder fitness machine.

He has also completed the notorious ‘world’s toughest race’, which is a six day run across 150miles in the Sahara Desert, known as the Marathon Des Sables.

Carl said: “My latest challenge is going to be very

Carl on a previous run

tough, and I’m not sure if anyone has done this before. My journey will cover about 200miles, 33,000ft of ascent and 27,000ft of descent.

“I will also be doing the whole run unsupported so will have to carry all my own food and equipment.

“I will sleep rough on a sleeping mat and bag but have decided only to run in daylight as it’s too dangerous to run at night. I’ll need to cover about 3035 miles a day to try and finish in 6-7 days.”

Carl revealed he got the idea of completing a gruelling challenge after spending a relaxing holiday in Marrakesh with his wife!

He said: “I just thought what if I ran straight from

Pupils to compete in maths-themed Champions League!

AFTER football’s Champions League tournament got underway last week, a Crosby school are taking part in their own version – but instead of a football they are using maths equations!

Whenever the top teams from Europe compete against each other on match days in UEFA's top tournament, maths teams from St Michael’s High School will also face off to answer maths puzzles.

The school has a total of 28 maths classes over the various year groups and they have been organised into seven minigroups of four teams.

Instead of playing football, St Michael’s teachers will be asking children to use a ‘MemRi’ computer feature to answer quizzes.

Teams will play each other and the winners rewarded for their efforts by ‘scoring goals’ to hopefully give their team three points.

The group stages will run between September and January before the knock out stages commence in February and then a final in May 2020.

There will be plenty of rewards along the

“The N9 will take me across the Atlas mountains until I come to a city called Ouzarette, which is the gateway to the Sahara desert. My finish line is at Ouzarette film studios.”

Carl said the whole trip is self funded, so 100% of donations will go to his chosen charity, which is Childline.

“We have faced a number of challenges over the last year and Merseyrail’s employees have been incredibly professional and passenger-focused both on the front line and behind the scenes.

“We are committed to providing the best possible service to our passengers in the Liverpool City Region, so to be highly commended in the Passenger Operator of the Year category at such a prestigious awards ceremony is a real testament to the work carried out by our staff and partners.”

Swastikas are painted across front of house Report by Tom Martin SWASTIKAS were spray-painted onto the front of a house in Netherton in a shocking incident of hate crime.

The vile graffiti was scrawled overnight on Tuesday, September 17 on Nunsford Close and police were called the following morning at 9.40am.

A swastika could be seen on either side of the front door, but it was soon scrubbed off.

There was also criminal damage caused to the house with a ground floor window smashed.

The swastika remains a potent symbol of racist hate and is commonly associated with the German Nazi Party who made extensive use of the graphic symbol between 1933-45.

A spokesperson for Merseyside Police said: “We can confirm a report was received that criminal damage had been caused to a house in Netherton.

“It was reported at around 9.40am that graffiti had been spray-painted on the front of the house, and a ground floor window smashed at the property on Nunsford Close sometime between 4.30pm on Tuesday, September 17 and 9.40am the following morning.

“Enquiries into the incident are ongoing and anyone with information is asked to contact Merseyside Police social media desk via Twitter @MerPolCC or Facebook Merseyside Police CC. “People can also call 101 quoting incident reference 19100529844 or contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously, on 0800 555 111.”

School pays tribute to pupils’ achievements A CROSBY school staged a special event to pay tribute to the achievements of its pupils over the last 12 months.

The Atkinson arts centre, in Southport, was the venue for the junior prize-giving ceremony for St Mary’s College Preparatory School.

Compere for the evening was local businessman, Jonathan Cunningham MBE, the chair of alumni organisation the Friends of St Mary’s.

And this year’s VIP guest was Edge Hill University early years education expert Nichola Grimshaw, who recently became a governor of St Mary’s.

The packed audience at the Atkinson heard that the school had again achieved excellent academic results during the year.

Other highlights ranged from winning the Christian Brothers Schools Debating Competi-

tion to the opening of a new forest area in the school grounds, funded by the Parents’ Association.

Preparatory School headteacher, Jonathan Webster, said: “This event, which gives us the opportunity to highlight the many wonderful achievements of our pupils in and out of the classroom, is one of my favourite events of the year.

“It also gives me the chance to thank the staff I work with for the sheer volume of opportunities they provide to our pupils, despite only being a small team.

“And I would also like to thank the parents of our pupils, not only for their ongoing support, but also for handing over their most valuable possessions to us every day, and trusting in the work that we do with them.”

Shop wins Independent Retailer in the North at national awards event Report by Danielle Thompson BAILEY’S Cards, who have a store in Crosby, have beaten competition to be named as the best Independent Greeting Card Retailer in the North in national awards.

Penny Bailey, the owner of Bailey's Crosby on Moor Lane as well as Bailey’s Ainsdale in Southport, revealed that they were recently crowned the winner of the Best Independent Greeting Card Retailer in the North and Northern Ireland Award at the Retas Awards 2019 at a glittering awards event at the Grosvenor House Hotel in Mayfair, attended by more than 400 people.

The Retas awards, launched in 2005, recognise excellence across the whole greeting cards retailing spectrum, from independents on the high streets, to the mini chains, national multiples, garden centres, department stores, supermarkets as well as art and framing shops.

Penny Bailey said: “All the winners in all the retail categories were arrived at as a result of huge nationwide nomination process. Earlier this year, over 2,000 Retas forms were distributed to UK greeting card publishers, who nominated the retailers that they felt to be the worthy winners in each of the categories.

“I'm really excited to tell you we won the overall award this year of Best Independent Greeting Card

A BOOTLE man with a record of 39 offences for theft has been given a conditional discharge after being caught stealing again after a court heard he’d been out of trouble for four years.

As Stephen Shorrock, 55, of Thackeray Gardens, appeared at Sefton Magistrate Court on September 18, it was heard that he was seen by security staff at Bootle Asda store on August 29 placing some items into a trolley while concealing cosmetics and tins of salmon in his clothing.

He then abandoned the trolley and tried to leave the store but was detained, prosecutor Angela Conlan said.

“His record shows there are 39 thefts with the

last being in 2015,” Mrs Conlan said.

Solicitor Darren Jones said that Shorrock was on Universal Credit and had run out of money.

“Whilst the defendant accepts that it was his intention to steal the items it was not very sophisticated,” Mr Jones said. “There was CCTV everywhere and he was stopped before leaving the store.”

The magistrates granted him a conditional discharge for 12 months.

“If you stay out of trouble for the next 12 months that’s the end of it,” they said. “We appreciate you have stayed out of trouble for four years so we are therefore going to give you this opportunity.”

Appeal launched by police to find man who breached gang injunction

Hospice launches Corporate Challenge ST JOSEPH’S Hospice is launching a Corporate Challenge this autumn and needs local businesses to sign up.

The challenge, which will kick start on Monday, October 7 to mark the beginning of Hospice Care Week, is to turn £50 into more in just eight weeks.

All those businesses taking part will be invited to a special launch event on, Tuesday, October 1 and will also be invited to a special celebratory event on December 13 when the Thornton hospice will reveal who has raised the biggest amount for the hospice.

Hospice Care Week is an annual week of activity to change perceptions and raise the profile of hospice care across the UK. The theme for this year’s Hospice Care Week is ‘This is what it takes’, which aims to highlight the less visible work that goes in to providing

Shoplifter with record of 39 offences of theft given conditional discharge

and paying for hospice care, such as all the materials and equipment necessary and the work of corporate sponsors and partners who help to fund it.

Norma Young, head of fundraising at St Joseph’s Hospice, said: “We’ll give all those businesses that sign up to our Corporate Challenge a £50 note and we’ll challenge them to turn it in to a much bigger figure in just eight weeks, by November 30.

“There’s a lot that can be done in eight weeks and businesses can raise money however they like. Our fundraising team will be on hand with ideas if needed but the rest is completely up to them and they can be as creative as they like.”

To sign up for the St. Joseph’s Hospice Corporate Challenge, or to enquire about how businesses can support the hospice in other ways, please call 0151 932 6044 or email events@jospice.org.uk.

A MAN from Bootle is wanted by police after he breached his gang injunction and failed to attend court in relation to drugs offences.

Sonny Redmond, 26, (shown right) is described by officers as white, around 5’8 tall, with hazel coloured eyes and brown hair.

Police are asking anyone who knows of his location to get in touch through @MerPolCC or by calling 101.

Children celebrate music exam theory results MUSIC pupils from a Crosby school hit the right note with examiners after they passed their ABRSM theory test.

ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music) is the UK’s largest music education body and holds over 650,000 assessments in more than 90 countries every year.

A group of 59 pupils from St Michael's High School sat the exams from Grades 1 to 5 and 24 children scored over 90% to achieve Distinction level.

A spokesperson for the school said: “The department and school are absolutely delighted with the results which come after some intensive studies in music and the school’s drive to encourage a deeper understanding of learning through a knowledge-rich

ABRSM exams are music exams rather than instrumental or singing exams, and examiners assess the quality of the music-making, not how it's achieved.

Tenants and landlords in panic as estate agent goes into liquidation Report by Kenny Parker AN estate agents has gone bust leaving landlords in the area concerned they could lose thousands of pounds in lost rents, and tenants fearing for their deposits.

Loc8, based at Central Square in Maghull, has applied for voluntary insolvency as its latest accounts submitted to Companies House revealed it owes £413,057.

The Champion understands Loc8 managed more than 180 properties and tenants deposits were not secured.

Loc8 has not responded to requests for comment from the Champion. However, Path Business Recovery (PBR) has confirmed, however, that the business has gone into voluntary liquidation and that concerns have been raised about landlord income and tenant deposits.

Philip Lawrence, senior manager at Manchesterbased PBR, said: “I can confirm that Path Business Recovery have been instructed to assist with placing the Company into Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation and the business is currently being marketed for sale.

“It would appear that there are a number of concerns regarding the safeguarding of landlord rental income and tenancy deposits, however given that we are at a very early stage in our investigations, we are unable to provide further clarification at this stage.

“Any further enquiries can be directed to Path Business Recovery at confidential@pathbr.co.uk or on 0161 413 0999.”

Landlord Andrew James, who lives in Germany, has a property in Crosby which has been managed

by Loc8 for 15 years.

He says he discovered he hadn’t been paid rent for two years and is owed £14,750, including interest.

He claims he received confirmation from Loc8 director Kevin Scott - who is also a past president of the Rotary Club of Maghull and Aughton - that he would be paid the money, but was forced to start legal action when it wasn’t paid to him. The issue came to light just before it was announced the firm had gone into liquidation.

The self-employed mechanical design engineer said the property is his pension fund “This money that has not been paid has more than wiped out the profit I’ve made,” he said.

There are also homeowners in the Sefton area who have enlisted the help of Loc8 to sell their properties now being left in the lurch by the sudden closure while there are also tenants who say they are concerned about their deposits.

Peter Magoolaghan, who rents a property in Kirkby through Loc8 said: “They have my £395 flat deposit in their possession. A holding company called Tenant Deposit Solutions Ltd is supposed to keep it separately as security.

“After doing an online check, the information was that they had no details of me on their accounts.

They directed me back to Loc8 who don't respond.”

Colin Maguire who rents a flat in Melling, is worried he could be homeless. Though he is on benefits and receives housing payments, Colin pays a top up to his landlord but when he went to Loc8’s office to pay it, the shop was closed down. After also finding out that Sefton Council had stopped all Housing Benefit payments to Loc8 he says he is worried he may end up losing his home if his landlord is left out of pocket.

He is also owed £1,000 in a deposit which he doesn't know whether he will ever see again.

“I got a letter about six months ago saying the landlord had come out of the landlord secure deposit scheme but that my property management company would sort things out for me. I have heard nothing,” he said, “I want to sort something out. I

don't want to be left high and dry, homeless through no fault of my own.”

Sefton Council has assured tenants that though their benefits have been suspended they have not been stopped and it is offering support to anyone who may be affected.

A spokeswoman for the authority said: “As soon as we were made aware of the situation with Loc8, we made the decision to temporarily suspend any housing benefit payments that were due to go to them. This decision has been made so that we can guarantee that payments can go directly to the landlords and homeowners represented by the estate agent.

“Residents who are currently in receipt of housing

benefits that are usually paid to Loc8 will be contacted to confirm how they would like these payments to be made moving forward.

“We would like to reassure these residents that their benefits have not stopped, they have just been suspended until we can better identify where this money needs to be sent.”

“Our housing options team has been made aware of this and are available to offer support and guidance to anyone who has been affected. Please visit www.sefton.gov.uk/housingadvice for more information.

Children see dangers of scrambler bikes with re-enactment of crash

By Champion Reporter MORE than 200 primary schoolchildren from south Sefton descended on Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service’s (MFRS) Training and Development Academy as part of a joint scheme aimed at educating young people about the dangers of offroad bikes.

Year 5 pupils from The Grange, St Elizabeth’s, St Phillips, English Martyrs and Lander Road primary schools visited the Storrington Avenue site on Thursday, September 9 as part of an action-packed day, organised to help steer young people away from getting involved with the anti-social and illegal use of scrambler bikes.

Pupils saw a re-enactment of a crash involving a scrambler bike, giving them an up-close account of the real dangers the bikes bring.

As well as the emergency services, the young

people were visited by special guest Jamie Carragher, who spoke passionately about the need for educating young people about the risks of becoming involved in riding off-road bikes.

Merseyside Police’s Operation Brookdale was introduced in 2012 as a response to a rise in incidents over the summer months and is now run all year round in partnership with MFRS, National Police Air Service helicopter, local authorities, housing associations, schools and youth groups.

Whilst there has been a reduction in recent years in the number of incidents involving scrambler bikes, the issue remains a top priority.

Merseyside Police Chief Constable, Andy Cooke, said: “Progress has been made in recent years, with scrambler bike incidents reducing, and we’re seeing seizures and arrests on a daily basis.

“But incidents still do happen. Key to our progress in the future is educational and early engagement with those who might be at risk of being involved.”

A NEW animated report has been released online, which aims to explain what air pollution is, where it comes from in Sefton and what happens when dirty air is breathed in.

Sefton's Director of Public Health, Matthew Ashton has released this year’s Public Health Annual Report (PHAR) which focus’s on the topic of air quality across the borough.

It also talks about what the council and others are already doing to improve air quality with some recommendations about what should happen in the future.

Mr Ashton said: “In addition to bringing more transparency to the topic of air quality and how it affects the health and wellbeing of Sefton residents, this report is also my opportunity to recognise the work that Sefton Council has been doing to make Sefton’s air cleaner.

“Air quality is a topic that is becoming more and more important to people not only locally, but also at national level. We cannot make change happen alone and I echo my report when I call for more joined up action that will help people to breath cleaner air now and in the future.”

Cllr Ian Moncur, Sefton Council’s

Matthew Ashton, Sefton's Director of Public Health

Cabinet Member for Health and Wellbeing, added: “Air pollution is a growing concern for many people who live in Sefton and the quality of the air we breathe is an issue that affects everyone.

“I am delighted that this topic was chosen as the theme for this year’s PHAR and I hope that it opens up a wider conversation about how we can all do more to protect our air.”

Staff from Aintree Hospital’s Ambulatory Heart Failure Service.

Hospital staff recognised at Excellence Awards Report by Henry James MORE than 400 staff from Aintree University Hospital gathered for the hospital’s annual Aintree Excellence Awards, hosted by celebrity chef Simon Rimmer, at Liverpool’s St George’s Hall.

Team of the Year went to the Ambulatory Heart Failure Service, which has been labelled as an “outstanding service” by external health bodies and was also presented with a national award for its innovative app-based work with patients.

Colette Finnan, assistant practitioner, was named Employee of the Year. She was nominated for the award by her colleagues for being an “inspiration” to those around her.

The Proud of Aintree Award, which was nominated for by members of the public, went to the Critical Care Outreach Team. A patient’s relative said in one of their nominations: “They genuinely cared and I feel they made a huge difference to my

mum’s care and recovery.”

Volunteer of the Year went to 18-year-old Magdalena O’Connor Manson, one of the hospital’s youngest volunteers.

Magdalena has cared for patients in the Accident and Emergency department for nearly two years, alongside studying and recently securing a place at university to study medicine.

She is one of more than 800 volunteers who give their time to the hospital.

The Safety First Team was presented with a special recognition award by Steve Warburton, chief executive, acknowledging their successful work to create a “safety first” culture among all staff.

Steve Warburton said: “I would like to congratulate all of the winners on their achievements.

“I’m proud to work alongside these incredible people who work tirelessly every day to provide outstanding care for our patients. It’s so important to take the time to celebrate their work.”

Aintree’s outgoing chair, Neil Goodwin, was thanked for his service to the hospital.

Too many pubs being sacrificed to developers

Some people have no choice but to park on the pavement

Re: The article in last week’s Champion about Closing Down Pub Set To be Demolished’ about the former Brooke Hotel in Seaforth which is set to come down to make way for a housing development.

There is another pub in similar fate - ‘The Warbreck’ corner of Bull Lane and Orrell Lane.

It is up for sale and is possibly going to be converted into flats.

Too many pubs are being sacrificed to unscrupulous developers whose only interest is making a profit and not the community they are destroying.

And the councils don’t care either.

With regard to pavement parking and the recent article about a clampdown on the practice Sefton.

The vast majority of people park on the pavement because they have no choice.

My house was built in 1926 when no-one had cars.

The road is only narrow, so I park half on the pavement but ensure there is plenty of room for wheelchairs, prams etc.

I would happily park round the corner and walk but there is no space.

Of course, we could all pave over our

James Austin, Bootle

front gardens, but that would reduce soak away and increase the flood risk.

Or we could argue with our neighbours every day over who should park where I agree that some people do park inconsiderately - as a partially disabled person myself I do come across this.

But to ban pavement parking altogether is not really an option for some.

The ‘Fairy Tree’ in Lydiate.

Magnificent tree is pride of Lydiate A few years ago I nominated the tree in the photograph above, which stands proud in Ridgeway Park, Lydiate as 'Tree of the Year' in a competition run by the Woodlands Trust.

It must stand more than 100 feet tall and be a couple of centuries old It never won of course, but at least it was recognised as an outstanding tree.

I was told by a gardener employed by Lydiate Parish Council that it was a Russian Poplar, but my children growing up always called it the ‘Fairy Tree’, simply because they believed fairies lived in it.

Walking by the tree today I realised that it had a twin.

Something I had not noticed in the 50 + years I have lived here, because close by, is the remains of The ‘twin’ tree which it’s twin which had to was chopped down be cut down as its heart was diseased as can clearly be seen in the photograph above.

‘Pride of Lydiate’ looks supreme in the sunshine and when autumn comes it lays a carpet of fluffy like cotton wool balls around her base.

Magnificent.

Gold bangle handed in to police station

Teaching first aid skills to children is so important

I found a gold bangle in the Sainsbury’s store car park in Crosby on Saturday, September 14.

I took it to Waterloo Police Station, only to find out the station is not manned at the front desk any more.

I was told to go to Marsh Lane Police Station, so went there, and guess what that was closed.

So I managed to hand it to a police officer that I approached on Stanley Road and he took it, and took details.

He said he would take it back to Marsh Lane Police Station.

As I don't do social media, I’m hoping that you might put a post on yours or the paper to say if anyone lost a gold bangle r, then to go to marsh lane police station Bootle.

You never know how you would act in an emergency, yet our actions could save a life.

This is why I think it’s fantastic that, after 10 years of campaigning by the British Red Cross, it will be compulsory for first aid skills to be taught in all state schools in England from 2020.

It’s an impactful way to give young people the confidence they need to help someone.

As parents, my husband Ben and I are so thrilled our children will be able to learn these important skills so that they never feel completely helpless in an emergency situation.

It’s also a relief knowing that if anything were to happen to them in the future, more people might be able to help.

Name supplied, By email

So many women I know, especially those weaning their babies, are terrified of the possibility of their child choking.

But children learning first aid could make all the difference if one of their younger siblings was choking at home.

This new legislation, however, is just for schools in England.

At the moment teaching first aid in schools in the rest of the UK is optional.

We support the British Red Cross’s calls for it to become a compulsory part of the curriculum throughout the UK so all school children get the same chance to learn how to save a life.

Towns miss out on £3.6bn of funding Report by Tom Martin

its hands on its share of this funding.

“Unfortunately, the announcement stops well short of a guarantee to allocate anything to Southport, moreover it simply offers Sefton Council an invitation to bid, and for a figure of up to a maximum of £25m.

“We intend to put the strongest case forward for consideration by Government noting that the early information encourages focus upon investment in transport, technology, skills and culture.

“All of which are consistent with our priorities and aspirations contained within the Southport Investment Framework, the Local Plan, and indeed a number of other initiatives being pursued by the Council and with partners such as Southport BID. “While I am bitterly disappointed our other town centres such as Crosby and Bootle have been overlooked, we will continue to support and encourage opportunities for investment more widely, and will fight for a fair deal for all of our communities and towns centres right across the borough.”

CROSBY and Bootle have missed out yet again on government funding after they were denied a share of a £3.6billion New Towns Funding.

Not long after the disappointment of Crosby being denied a slice of the Future High Streets Fund last month, the town has failed again in this latest funding application.

Sefton Council, which included Bootle as well this time in their bid, say they are “bitterly disappointed” that the two towns were overlooked.

It was better news for Southport, which was one of the 100 towns chosen for a share of the £3.6bn – meaning they will get a £25million share.

According to the government, towns eligible for support included places with “proud industrial and economic heritages” that have “not always benefited from economic growth in the same way as more prosperous areas.”

Successful towns will now benefit from ambitious plans to transform their local economic growth prospects with a focus on improved transport, broadband connectivity, skills and culture.

Cllr Marion Atkinson, Sefton Council’s Labour Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills, said: “While we are delighted that we have not been overlooked this time, we look forward to understanding how Southport can actually get Cllr Marion Atkinson

Blues fan banned for ‘offensive comments’ before Derby match AN Everton fan has been banned from football stadiums for three years after shouting ‘offensive comments’ before last season’s Merseyside Derby.

John O’Brien, 21, of St Domingo Road, in Everton, was found guilty of a public order offence on Wednesday, September 18 and was handed a football banning

order as well a £850 fine.

Police didn’t release details of what O’Brien shouted, but he was heard before Liverpool hosted rivals Everton at Anfield on December 2 last year, when the Reds won 1-0.

He was arrested for a s5 public order offence and found guilty at a trial held at South Sefton Magistrates Court.

Taxi licence refused to man who failed to disclose 17 criminal convictions Report by Kenny Parker A TAXI driver has lost an appeal against Sefton Council who refused to issue him a cab licence after they found out he had 17 previous convictions.

The council lost recent two appeals against applicants with criminal records, and the authority was at Sefton Magistrates Court again on September 18 and on this occasion for refusing a private hire licence to James Taylor, 45, of Boundary Street, Kirkdale.

The court heard that Taylor applied for a taxi licence in May and told the authority about two offences he had on record - a drugs matter from 2015, for which he received an eight-year prison sentence, and a theft matter from 2010 for which he received three months in prison.

Lydia Campbell, representing Sefton Council, said that when a subsequent DBS check was carried out, however, a further 17 offences came to light going back to 1991.

They included driving while disqualified, destroying or damaging property, and supplying class A drugs.

Miss Campbell said that the council refused the licence on two grounds: that he had failed to disclose his previous convictions and also because council policy is that there should be five to ten years from the end of the sentence in drug cases before it can consider issuing a license, except in exceptional circumstances.

Mr Taylor told the court that he wasn't trying to hide his past but had been advised by a council official when filling out the form only to enter the first two convictions because he had so many. He was told a DBS check would show the others.

His solicitor said he had turned his life around and supplied the court with references from the probation service and a rehabilitation organisation which both supported his application for a licence.

He also had a letter from Alpha Taxis offering him a job should he get the licence.

The magistrates refused the appeal. chairman Frank Dainty said: “The council's policy is clear. “We have not heard anything to say there is exceptional circumstances so therefore we are not overruling the council’s decision.�

As reported in the Champion, Sefton Council lost two appeals against taxi drivers with criminal records four weeks ago. In the first case the applicant had been convicted of indecent exposure 21years ago and drink driving four years ago In the second a drug dealer had been sentenced to three years in jail in 2014.

Metro mayors in joint call for action METRO mayor Steve Rotheram is calling on the government to take “urgent action” to give Liverpool City Region more powers.

The city region mayor joined forces with Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham to demand five key changes, beginning with the termination of the Northern rail franchise in favour of local control over railways and London-style subsidies for northern bus services.

They also want complete control of the Apprenticeship Levy, funding to help people affected by clean air zones switch vehicles and more help to support people sleeping rough.

In a joint statement, the mayors make clear they now need government to give local leaders the powers and resources to go much further: “There is an urgent need to take power out of Westminster and give it to our great cities

and regions,” the mayors said.

“We need to build a new, healthier politics that unifies people around place and positive change and delivers practical change for citizens.

“Whilst central government has been stuck in the Brexit mire, we have used devolution to deliver for our local communities on the things that matter to them. So we are making a new joint call on the government for action in five priority areas.”

THE national Citizens Advice Scams Action has been featured on ITV’s Tonight programme.

The programme showed our website in detail and interviewed Martin Lewis, whose payout from Facebook, after his image was used in a series of online scams, has funded the service. Martin said it would provide ‘one-on-one help’ for people worried they had been victims of a scam, and pointed out ‘urgency and secrecy’ are the two biggest red flags to show that a scammer might be at work.

There have been world-wide arrests of moneyfraudsters recently whose scams involved tricking victims into wiring money to bank accounts controlled by fraudsters. Our guidance is, as always, “STOP, REPORT, TALK”.

In the last column I mentioned Paypal scams. One of our Sefton residents who was emailed in this way said an email he received looked like it was from Paypal, because his bank account is linked to his Paypal account. He checked the email address properly and I realised it was a scam.

I have mentioned Universal Credit fraud via supposedly government officials offering interest-free government loans which do not exist. Recently questions have been asked in parliament and the House of Lords regarding claimants on legacy benefits being offered ‘government loans’ by strangers (sometimes pretending to be government officials) and then being persuaded into disclosing their personal details, so a universal credit (UC) claim can be made in their name.

The scammers then apply for a UC advance in the client’s name and take a share of the advance as their ‘fee’. Clients often only realise they have been scammed when they discover that their legacy benefit claims have been closed and they now have

a live UC claim and are expected to repay the UC advance, including any amount they have given to the scammer.

So what can victims do?

It’s best if they contact their local Citizens Advice advisory centre for face-to-face help as there are a number of options, depending on individual circumstances.

Finally, residents across Southport are being alerted to a new type of doorstep scam. It’s reported that a man knocked at the door of a Southport home to say the residents could claim compensation for cavity wall insulation-related damp.

During this visit the doorstepper said that all he needed was copies of passports, national insurance numbers and driving licenses. He was given the details, but the residents later discovered this is a scam. Our advice: never to give out personal and private details to doorstep callers.

If you have a scam tale to tell, contact me at john.trotter@seftoncab.org.uk l Last week saw the 80th birthday of Citizens Advice, and at our Southport and our Bootle Advice Centres we celebrated with birthday cakes and balloons.

Citizens Advice Sefton’s chief officer, Pauline Killen said: We are incredibly proud to mark 80 years of providing free, independent and confidential advice for people across England and Wales.

“Locally, we are committed to helping as many people as we can so they can find the knowledge and confidence they need to move forward, whoever they are and whatever their problem.

“We’re here for anyone who needs free, impartial and independent advice.”

‘Official’ birthday is my claim to a Royal connection I HAVE something in common with Her Majesty the Queen. Yes, really. We both have a real birthday and an ‘official’ one.

Mind you, this similarity only goes back a couple of years, but both I and Her Majesty, I would think, have an official birthday for very practical (if totally different) reasons.

My real birthday is in the middle of November, making me a Scorpio and for most of my life this has been very satisfactory for me. I have long held the view that the time of year in which you were born always seems somehow attractive and certainly I am drawn to the gloomy, dank and sometimes rather wet November evenings.

November to me seems to mark a real change in the weather and since it’s not even supposed to be warm and sunny it rarely disappoints in that regard, while still managing the odd few genuinely delightful sharp, blue sky days.

So I have nothing whatever against recognising the real date of my birth, except for a purely practical one which only really raised its head after my brother George died in November 2013 - exactly a week after my birthday.

It had become my practice way back in the last century to celebrate my birthday away from home.

After all, if I stayed put I would no doubt be showered with gifts and cards, which would be an embarrassment! So back in the late 1970s I began a custom of swanning off for a ‘short week’ in the Isle of Man - I love the place - sometimes with my dad, sometimes with George.

But when George and I bought our lovely old motor cruiser Manxman in 1984 it made sense instead to have a week’s late cruise on the Norfolk Broads and this proved very successful for many years. We did experience the full gamut of November weather, ranging from beautiful sunny days to a full snow storm and occasional ice too. But no problems really, particularly since we nearly always had one or two members of family or friends along to help.

Our final November cruise together was in 2012.

In 2013 George feared he would be in hospital on my birthday (as indeed he was) so we decided to take our final cruise for the year in the last week in October.

After George’s death I resumed the November ‘birthday ’ cruise but it was never the same. And it was little fun becoming ice-bound (in 2016 I couldn’t even get the boat back to its berth because Barton Broad was totally iced over) or for that matter ‘celebrating’ my birthday alone with dogs Tina and Cinders - neither of whom even sent me a card any more.

So I decided on an ‘official’ birthday - October 18 - when I can hopefully still be able to cruise the Broads before the ice sets in.

Actually, I’ll let you into a little secret. As a boy I did harbour the idea that when I grew up (I’m still waiting for that to happen) I would marry Princess Anne, though realistically even then I could foresee difficulties. I never really even solved the problem of when and where we could first meet (the Saturday matinee at the old Albany cinema - now the site of an Aldi supermarket - somehow didn’t seem quite to fill the bill).

So my only real connection with Royalty will have to remain my ‘official’ birthday and I have yet to get round to inviting Her Majesty to share my Birthday Cruise. Manxman does look very smart at the moment and does boast central heating (of sorts) TV and a shower, but somehow I think she falls short of the former Royal Yacht Britannia in fittings, furniture and staff.

So I reckon me and the dogs will have to share the undoubtedly glorious delights of an autumnal Norfolk all alone.

At least at this time of year we should have no difficulty in finding moorings wherever we want and since one of the problems with November was that it coincided with folk removing the fresh water pipes to guard against them freezing up, the earlier date should remove one problem at least. I and my crew are looking forward to it.

Check that your tyres are the correct way around!

A CHAMPION reader is encouraging motorists to check their tyres after discovering her 18-year-old son had been driving with ‘asymmetric’ treads fitted the wrong way around which, it is claimed, could be potentially dangerous.

Asymmetric tyres, commonly in use in the performance car industry but used increasingly in the domestic market, have different treads in the inner half and outer half of the tyre.

On the outside edge, large tread blocks are designed to provide good dry traction and handling thanks to a larger contact area with the road. Meanwhile on the inside edge, the tread block is much smaller to provide better

Report by Kenny Parker wet grip, and an increased number of grooves to help disperse water on wet roads and reduce the risk of aquaplaning.

If fitted the wrong way they can be unsafe in wet conditions, and an incorrectly fitted asymmetric tyre is an MOT fail.

The concerned Champion reader, who does not wish to be named, had paid for two asymmetric tyres to be fitted to the front of her son’s car.

She was horrified to learn later that they had been fitted the wrong way around.

She said: “My son often goes on the motorway to get to college. If

it had been raining and he braked on water I dread to think what could have happened.”

The garage owner who sold her the tyres said about 10% of tyres are asymmetric - but he had not been aware the brand of tyre he fitted to her son’s vehicle had switched to asymmetric, and he acknowledged the error.

The mum added: “My concern is that there could be many other motorists out there that have also had their tyres put on the wrong way around but are unaware of the danger it poses.”

It is not difficult to check whether asymmetric tyres have been placed correctly, as they are clearly marked inside and outside on the sidewall (see pictures, above right).

The asymmetric tyres clearly show which way around they should go (above, and right)

Report by Tom Martin

with an easigrass artificial lawn TM

TRIALS for first aid lessons in 1,600 schools across England will begin this month – with the scheme set to be rolled out for every school in the country from next year.

The new first aid classes are part of the government's relationships, sex and health education curriculum, which will be taught in all state-funded schools in England from September 2020.

Schools in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are not part of the new curriculum.

Primary school children will be taught basic skills such as how to call emergency services, while secondary school children will learn life-saving skills such Children across England will be taught first aid training. as how to help someone who is suffering given prior to the arrival of medical services and a cardiac arrest. could help the UK’s ‘shockingly low survival rates The decision to make first aid classes compulsory from cardiac arrest.’ comes after Lord Kerslake's inquiry into the Joe Mulligan, the British Red Cross’ head of first Manchester Arena bombing in May 2017 found aid education, said: “The launch of first aid on the members of the public tried to help the injured and school curriculum in England celebrates a landmark dying but lacked the requisite skills. commitment by the government to create a future The report into the blast, which killed 22 people, generation of life-savers. praised the public response but flagged concerns “We want to make sure pupils have a well-rounded that people on the scene were ‘trying their very best education that equips them for life outside of school in genuinely harrowing circumstances’ but ‘did not as well as in it and part of this is giving them the appear familiar with first aid principles.’ skills and confidence to act if they are faced with an The British Red Cross is one of a number of charit- emergency.” ies that has been campaigning for first aid classes to Sefton Council confirmed that it will be up to be mandatory in schools for more than a decade. schools themselves to decide when they will take The charity’s chiefs say that up to 59% of deaths by this up and would then be up to Ofsted to monitor injury could be prevented in the UK if first aid was this during inspections 2020.

Family and friends raise almost £2,000 in Army man’s memory Report by Henry James THE family and friends of a man who died at Aintree’s Woodlands Hospice have raised just under £2,000 in his memory.

Paul passed away to cancer at Woodlands Hospice on Friday, June 7, surrounded by his closest loved ones.

His family and friends have all pulled together since Paul’s death to fundraise in his memory, with a goal of getting a leaf on the hospice’s Tree of Life.

Paul’s family also provided a touching tribute to staff nurse, Lisa McVey, who they felt Paul really connected with during his stay at the hospice, so much so they had a star named after her as a thank you.

The family have also taken part in the Hospice’s Forget-Me-Not in memorial campaign in memory of Paul.

Martin Doran, known affectionately as ‘Paul’ by those closest to him, spent his final days at Woodlands Hospice.

Paul was a popular man – a loving husband, father, grandad and friend - and had led a fantastic, interesting life.

He was extremely proud of his membership in the Territorial Army (TA), belonging to the 156 Regiment, 238 Squadron in Bootle, Liverpool.

Paul joined in 1979 until 1987 but kept a close relationship with those he encountered during his time in the TA. Paul’s role was in the Royal Core of Transport, specifically, manoeuvres.

During his stay at Woodlands Hospice, Paul was delighted to show off his old Army uniform, brought in by one of his close friends to cheer him up. Paul dressed in his Army attire and impressed all the staff, volunteers and his friends and family

with how well he looked, despite dealing with his illness at the time.

As well as his time in the TA, Paul travelled all over Europe as part of a European Removals Company, visiting locations such as France, Belgium, Sweden and Norway.

While working for this company, Paul was sadly diagnosed with bladder cancer, in 2007. This diagnosis was devastating to Paul, who spent the next 12 years, fighting and beating his cancer.

Paul put this down to his sheer optimism and determination, as well as excellent medical care and support from loved ones.

During this time, despite facing cancer, Paul focussed his energy on helping to make a difference, such as being an instructor in the Cadets and The Liverpool College CCF Army Section helping with their Duke of Edinburgh Award expeditions and looking to set up a Stoma Support Group at Aintree Hospital.

Sadly, in March 2019 Paul was readmitted to hospital with stomach pains and told his cancer had returned and had spread to his liver, lungs and bowel and was unfortunately, terminal.

Despite this devastating blow, Paul remained his optimistic, happy self, surprising friends, family and Woodlands Hospice staff with his strength, courage and sense of humour even at the very end.

Due to his nature, he was very popular and famed on the hospice’s In Patient Unit for having a constant stream of visitors.

Paul was extremely grateful for the love he was shown during his time at Woodlands by those closest to him as he commented: “The support from loved ones has been amazing during my stay at Woodlands.

“Often the case, as one visitor is leaving,

ENTERTAINMENT

Production was a ‘fast-moving and enjoyable show’ Review by Malcolm Hindle THE hits just kept on coming when Motown the Musical rolled into the Empire Theatre.

How could it be any other way when the iconic record label gave us the likes of Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, the Jackson 5... the list of star names just goes on.

And this fast-moving and enjoyable show showed off the story of Motown in all its glory much to the delight of soul fans who whooped with delight at every smash hit delivered.

Motown the Musical is, in essence, a tribute show and while I’m not usually one for tribute acts of which there are so many out there, this show breaks the mould in that it tells the story of Motown from its small beginnings to the epic hit machine it eventually became thanks to the show’s main character and Motown founder Berry Gordy, played at the Empire by Edward Baruwa.

On April, 4 1965, as part of a Tamla Motown Revue tour, The Supremes played the Empire alongside Martha Reeves and The Vandella’s, Smokey Robinson and a 15 year old Stevie Wonder, shortly before these artists became household names around the world. The rest is history, as they say.

Those same big names were back in Liverpool, of a sort at least, with stand-out performances from Karis Anderson as Diana Ross, Shak Gabbidon-Williams as a young rebellious Marvin Gaye and Kane Matthews as Smokey Robinson.

Motown Records enjoyed success on both sides of the Atlantic and the story of the record label’s success, and the phenomenal amount of hits it

A scene from Motown the musical

produced, is expertly unravelled.

Motown The Musical tells the story of Mr Gordy’s life and the development of Motown Records in Detroit, Michigan which soon became known as Hitsville USA. The name ‘Motown’ derives from Detroit, known as the Motor City and the word ‘town’. It was originally founded by Gordy as Tamla Records on January 12, 1959, and was incorporated as Motown Record Corporation on April 14, 1960.

With music and lyrics from the Motown catalogue the production features a live orchestra playing 50 Motown tracks including Ain’t No Mountain High Enough, I’ll Be There, Dancing In The Street, Stop!

In The Name Of Love, My Girl, I Heard It through the Grapevine and tells the story behind the classic hits to a backdrop of the major news events of the day.

Motown the Musical runs at the Liverpool Empire Theatre until Saturday September 28, 2019.

One Man, Two Guvnors is ‘comedy at its most frantic’ Review by Ron Ellis ‘One Man, Two Guvnors’ SDC at Southport Little Theatre BASED on Carlo Goldoni’s Italian comedy, A Servant of Two Masters, written in 1746, this English adaptation by Richard Bean is more like a pantomime, involving slapstick, music, knockabout comedy, smutty jokes and audience participation.

Directed by Adrienne Ledson at a whirlwind pace, it is set in the Brighton of the Swinging Sixties and tells the story of a man who takes on the task of working for two rival gangsters.

I shall try to describe the plot but it isn’t easy.

Two underworld gangs are about to be joined by holy matrimony.

Pauline (Alice McKillop), daughter of gangster Charlie “the Duck” Clench (Tony O’Keefe) wants to marry Alan, (Alex McKillop) son of Charlie's lawyer, Harry Dangle (John Hudsell) but she is engaged to Rosco Crabbe. Luckily for her, Rosco has been killed by another gangster, Stanley

A scene from One Man Two Guvnors. Picture by Fletcher-Hill photography.

Stubbers (Chris Smalley) who is in love with Rosco's twin sister, Rachel (Emily Parr).Disguised as her dead brother, Rachel takes on Francis as her minder.

Francis then meets Stanley in a pub and agrees to be his minder as well, thus becoming a servant to two masters!

Like I said. Not easy.

The lead role of Francis Henshall, made famous by James Corden in the original London production, was taken on at short notice by Liam Rabbette and he acquitted himself admirably, showing great composure onstage and a pleasing empathy with the audience to whom he chatted convivially throughout, indeed inviting several of them to come onstage and help move the props.

The second half brought the famous hilarious dinner scene whereby the ever-hungry Henshall, who had already eaten his way through a paper envelope, tried to serve meals to both of his masters at the same time, aided by an unsteady octogenarian waiter with a marvelous grasp of balance.

With a cast of 12 and non-stop action from start to finish, the actors needed to keep on their toes, as indeed did the audience. Some of the stage movements were carried out like a high speed ballet and trying to keep up with them was as hard as trying to keep up with the plot. Best just to sit back and enjoy the belly laughs.

Star rating: 7 out of 10. Comedy at its most frantic.

Classical music favourites can be heard at the Phil ALED Jones and Russell Watson are two names that have dominated classical music over the past two decades.

Last year these two luminaries united to create a duo, bringing together two of the UK’s most distinctive and loved voices.

The result was In Harmony, a collection of arias and classical standards that shot in to the UK Top 10 and is on the way to being certified Gold, as well as amassing over a million streams.

Now, ahead of their upcoming UK tour which comes to the Liverpool Philharmonic on Saturday, October 12 at 7.30pm, Aled and Russell have once again returned to the studio with international platinum selling producer Ian Tilley to continue their joint musical journey.

In a similar spirit to their first record, they have had fun in the studio recording some of their favourite standards, popular classical songs, hymns and arias for Back In Harmony, released on November 1 on BMG. Whether it’s the pomp of Luigi Denza’s Funiculì Funiculà ,the uplifting Ennio Morricone penned Nella Fantasia o rThe Impossible Dream from Broadway musical Man Of La Mancha the album underscores the unity of their voices.

Other highlights within the repertoire include The Lord Is My Shepherd, Make Me A Channel Of Your Peace and The Lord Bless and Keep You. Each song holds a real meaning to both of them.

As a seasonal treat too, the album contains the Christmas classic Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, as well as a special medley of In The Bleak Mid Winter / O Holy Night / Hark The Herald Angels Sing.

Commenting on the new album, Aled said: “Once again teaming up with the mighty Voice Russell Watson - has been a dream. This album is better than I could ever have imagined. The harmonies have been taken to another level and I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved. There is also a fabulous mix of songs - fromThe Impossible Dreamand Nella Fantasia to Lucky, Lucky You!I

Aled Jones and Russell Watson

never thought I’d record that! But I love it - and adore this album. I hope you enjoy it too!”

Russell added: “After the success of our first album, I’m over the moon to be back in the studio with my good pal Aled Jones! Our follow up Back In Harmony is even bigger and better, with some real blockbuster tunes, beautifully written harmonies and wonderful orchestrations. It’s the proudest I’ve felt for a long time about a record.

“The production has gone to another level, Aled sounds amazing and our voices blend so well together. Thanks to everyone who has supported us so far!”

Ahoy! Families invited to Seascapes concert CROSBY Symphony Orchestra will be presenting a short concert of orchestral music, with the theme of ‘The Sea’ for families with children on Saturday, October 12 at 2.30pm at St Faiths Crosby.

Alongside the orchestral music there will be songs to sing with the orchestra and activities to involve young audience members.

Fans of the old Land Rover Defender now have two new off-roaders to choose from

THE NEW DEFENDER IS A proper Land Rover. Or is it?

Apologies if this sounds almost exactly like the opening to last week’s Life On Cars column, but it turns out that barely a week after it was announced that some blokes who met up in their local pub have announced their own equally no-frills offroader.

In fact, they’re so proud of their beverage-based flash of inspiration that they’ve actually named their new offering after it.

I kid you not.

The Grenadier – the car, not the London watering hole famed for its whiskies and real ale – is apparently going to go on sale in 2021, so it’ll be at least a year behind the new Defender, but the chaps behind it are promising all sorts of Land Rover-ish things that farmers familiar with the old model will doubtless appreciate.

Where the new Defender is going for more car-like monocoque construction for the first time, the Grenadier is sticking with an old-fashioned ladder frame chassis, which is simpler and easier to adapt to different bodystyles.

It’ll have beam axles, permanent fourwheel-drive and a boxy, no-nonsense exterior.

Sound familiar? Then there are the engines, which are being sourced from BMW in much the same way a certain other specialist in mud-pluggers used to do.

Nor will there be any plug-in hybrids or zero emissions electric models – apparently, the car’s pale ale-swigging purveyors thought about it, but decided no-nonsense turbodiesels and petrols would do just fine, thanks.

Only said blokes, while they really did come up with the idea in the pub, aren’t overenthusiastic CAMRA members with a better grasp of Doom Bar than doomed British car designs.

These chaps are not like all those tiny British sports car companies who attempt to take on Porsche with a budget of

£12.50; nope, they all happen to work for a petrochemical company called Ineos, which is investing a not inconsiderable £600 million in the project.

It also employs 22,000 people, and reckons it’ll take on about 500 more making the new off-roader.

Three blokes nailing bits together in a shed this isn’t – and it’s pulled off a PR coup by announcing, just days after the Slovakian-built Defender was unveiled, that the Grenadier will be built right here in Blighty (South Wales, since you’re asking).

But it’ll only out-Defender the Defender if it can get one crucial bit right; the price.

Land Rover’s new offering starts at £45k in short-wheelbase 90 form, so the unapologetically unsophisticated Grenadier will have to start at a fraction of that to win over all those farmers, squaddies and forestry workers.

That, I reckon, is the opening salvo in the most intriguing motoring battle in years.

All this from a couple of car nuts in a pub. Cheers!

Nissan Juke rival is a plug-in hybrid AN ALL-NEW replacement for Renault’s Captur will go on sale early next year.

The Nissan Juke rival is based around the same basic components as the latest Clio, and for the first time it’ll be available as a plug-in hybrid.

It’ll also be sold with a choice of three petrol and two turbodiesel engines.

There’s no word on UK prices yet, but expect them to start at around £15,000.

Right: Renault is replacing its Captur with this all-new model

It’s business as usual at 06 Skelmersdale… with an exciting addition!

We have had some feedback from some of our customers that we have been taken over or that we are no longer Vauxhall.

We just wanted to inform to put the record straight, we are still a Vauxhall dealer, we sell new and used Vauxhall models as well as servicing, repairing and carrying out Vauxhall warranty work, just as before.

The only difference is now we also sell new and used Mitsubishi, giving our customers even more choice. Please rest assured 06 Skelmersdale is still owned by 06, the family business that prides itself on the customer care it has always provided.

So please tell all your family and friends, it’s business as usual for Vauxhall at Skelmersdale but also now we have Mitsubishi as well.

With cars starting from just £2,990,

your next car is closer than you think at 06!

CITROËN is hoping to win over caravan owners by dropping a new engine into its SpaceTourer.

From next month you’ll be able to buy the people carrier with the company’s new twolitre BlueHDi turbodiesel engine, which it says for a £1700 premium over the existing 1.5litre model will bring an uplift in unbraked trailer weight, making it a better car for towing.

It’s available in four trim levels – two aimed at families, the others at business users – and in standard or long-wheelbase form. Prices for one with this new engine start at £36,620.

Strength in depth for Firwood Waterloo

FIRWOOD Waterloo came away with four points from a tough match at Douglas.

On a fine autumnal afternoon, the visitors settled into their work and Daragh O’Brien scored to the delight of the large contingent of travelling supporters.

The forwards controlled large phases of the half which is credit to the depth of talent in this emerging team. The work of Joe Bowmer was particularly worthy of note, however, it was Douglas who took a 12 -7 interval lead.

In the second period Firwood Waterloo levelled the scores with a tap and go try by Jonny Roberts following great support by Luke Nelson. As momentum in the game swung back and forth, prolonged pressure from the Manxmen tested the visitors’ defence. They held firm but eventually conceded just a penalty. When Firwood Waterloo’s forwards regained dominance, they forced Douglas into conceding penalties leading to a yellow card.

Using the one man advantage and late in the game, loose head prop Kurt Riley dived over after a driving maul from the line-out to take the lead. Although the ‘extras’ were narrowly missed, Firwood were then able to see out the match.

After the match, coach Stuart Turner talked about the depth he now has in his squad. “Some of our forwards are out with injuries but we have great back up here - and also in our backs.”

Of the game, Turner added, “After an even first half, I thought we were the better team in the second and we were a match for the physicality of the game.” l Next week, Firwood Waterloo return to the Memorial Ground to renew acquaintances with Vale of Lune. They may be newcomers to North 1 West this season, but have started this season well, accruing try bonus points in all games so far this season.

Bootle are crowned champions as season draws to thrilling close

THE final round of matches in the Liverpool & District Cricket Competition threw up a few nerve jangling moments for many of our local clubs across all three divisions.

Bootle clinched the Premier Division title with a closely fought five run win at Lytham, the result saw the hosts who needed to win to stay up relegated to the First Division.

Bootle were asked to bat first and runs from Will Hale 70 and skipper Neil Williams 34 enabled them to declare on 167-8, with Anthony Mulligan taking 3-25.

Lytham made a decent start before Jhangir Liaqat ripped out opener Matt Cartmell 31 and the middle order with 4-37, leaving Lancashire’s Steven Croft 54 and Alex Mason to fight a lone battle which finally ended when Mason was run out for 42, leaving the hosts all out for 162, with Scott Butterworth taking 359.

Ormskirk took the runners up spot with a four wicket win at Formby, the hosts chose to bat with Sam Oldham 67* and Ollie Sutton 22 top scoring as they were dismissed for 145, with Scott Lees 3-31 and Tom Hartley 3-35 on form with the ball.

The possibility of a comeback was on when a pass off a corner from Short was hoofed into the
