POP UP CYCLE LANE THREAT TO CHURCH Religious leaders say scheme could ‘threaten existence’ of Holy Trinity RELIGIOUS leaders fear the existence of a landmark Southport Church is under threat... from a new pop up cycle lane!

Holy Trinity church has stood on its Hoghton Street site for more than one hundred years but a proposed cycleway through the town will put it at risk, claim church members.

Ian Howarth, 71, a lay minister at Holy Trinity, and Bob Ball, both members of the Parochial Church Council (PCC) believe that plans to create new ‘pop up’ lanes on both sides of Hoghton Street mean that there will be no on-street parking available for parishioners at Holy Trinity Church – including those who are elderly and disabled.

They say that there was ‘no consultation’ about the plans and that there is an ‘increased risk of accidents’ as parents will not be able to drop off or collect their children from Holy Trinity Junior School by car.

The lanes would also ‘severely restrict’ access for wedding cars and funeral hearses, which would be left unable to park outside the Grade II listed church, which was built in the early 20th century.

Southport MP Damien Moore has slammed the new cycle routes as ‘absolutely ridiculous’ amid fears they could have a ‘detrimental effect’ on businesses. The scheme is being paid for by government funds to encourage more cycling and walking, but Mr Moore fears traffic restrictions could put people off ‘venturing back’ at a time when businesses are trying to encourage more trade.

Council chiefs refute the criticism saying the

Report by Danielle Thompson scheme will ‘make it easier and safer for people to visit town centre shops, workplaces and other facilities by bike or on foot.’

They point out that owing to a strict timeline to receive the funds there was no opportunity to consult on the proposals.

Sefton Council, Liverpool City Region and MetroActive are working together to create the new lanes, remove pay and display parking spaces and prevent through traffic to ‘make it easier’ for cyclists and walkers to navigate the town.

But Mr Howarth told the Champion: “Holy Trinity has stood for more than 100 years and Sunday morning congregations usually have 100-120 worshippers with others attending early morning and evening worship. There are daily services in the church and it provides a haven for many others seeking a place for quiet contemplation and meditation.

“It is also home to several of Southport’s cultural organisations including the Trinity Arts Festival, the Southport Bach Choir and numerous recitals by nationally famous musicians. Its parish centre is home to a weekly luncheon club and several youth organisations and is regularly used by other organisations such as the Blood Transfusion Service, all of which would be seriously affected by a parking ban.

Proms songs should be celebrated - MP Moore backs Boris in condemning BBC decision

A CONTROVERSIAL decision by the BBC to play orchestral versions of Land of Hope and Glory and Rule Britannia! at the Last Night of the Proms has been criticised by Southport MP Damien Moore.

The politician believes the anthems should be ‘celebrated and sung loudly’ despite critics claiming the lyrics have associations with colonialism and slavery.

The BBC says the decision was prompted by Covid-19 restrictions because fewer performers are allowed on stage, making it harder to perform the songs with a traditional chorus.

MP Moore joined Prime Minister Boris Johnson in condemning the decision. Mr Moore said: “Singing Rule Britannia! and Land Of Hope And Glory at the Last Night of the Proms is a national institution.

Installer

MP Moore

They are highlights of the event each year and I think it is really important that we keep them. Modern, confident, forward-looking nations like ours cherish and learn from their history, they don’t erase it.

“These songs should be celebrated, they should be enjoyed by people. Not just at

the Last Night of the Proms, but people should also sing them in their homes, from their doorsteps.

“This debate has highlighted that we need to hold onto something which is so patriotic and so historic for Britain.

You can’t just erase them.

“Britain has changed lots of laws and lots of other things over the past 200 years, and it

will continue to do so. Societies evolve, they change for the better. Every historian agrees that you cannot change history, but you can and you must learn from it, and that is what Britain has done and will continue to do. Britain has become a much better place because we have learned from our history.

“Last Night Of The Proms and songs such as Rule, Britannia! and Land Of Hope And Glory are national institutions.

“They are exactly what we need right now as we come through one of our toughest times in recent history with the coronavirus pandemic.

“If the BBC is struggling with the Proms event this year then perhaps then should play a repeat of last year’s event.”

Following the outcry, the BBC promised the songs will return with their lyrics next year.

Council’s glass act!

Evictions ban extended until September 20 CAMPAIGNERS are calling for a ban on evictions to be extended further with fears it could lead to more homelessness.

Landlords won’t be able to evict tenants in Sefton until September 20 after the government announced an extension to the ban, which was due to end in August.

A five month pause on evictions brought on by lockdown was due to end on August 23, but fears were raised that thousands of people in England could lose their homes and the government made a last minute U-turn.

Despite the delay, there are still calls to do more to stop evictions when the ban is eventually lifted later this month.

Rick Henderson, Chief Executive of Homeless Link, said: “We know that one of the main causes of homelessness is an end to a shorthold tenancy. Lifting the ban on evictions will only delay the inevitable, resulting in more people living on the streets at a time when government has worked with the homelessness sector to bring people in during the pandemic.

“We need to see solutions, rather than action that bolsters the problems. Extending the evictions ban to the end of the calendar year, providing grants to tenants to cover the cost of their housing, and funding holistic support for individuals, are all things that government can do to prevent an increase in homelessness this winter and keep everyone in for good.”

Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick said when the ban was lifted, the most serious cases of anti-social behaviour, other crimes, and unpaid rent for over a year would be dealt with first.

However, a landlords' group described the extension as ‘unacceptable’.

Ben Beadle, chief executive of the National Residential Landlords Association, said: “Landlords have been left powerless in exercising their legal right to deal with significant arrears unrelated to Covid-19, anti-social behaviour and extremely disruptive tenants who make life miserable for their neighbours and housemates.

“Private landlords cannot be expected to foot the bill for government failure.”

Borough to introduce blue wheelie bins for residents to recycle glass SEFTON Council is to spend £400,000 on blue wheelie bins for residents to recycle glass.

The move comes following a government announcement that requires some items of recyclable waste to be collected separately as part of its new Environment Bill.

The local authority want to purchase 100,000 blue wheelie bins so locals across the borough can separate glass from cardboard, which is usually all put in brown bins.

For those who don’t have wheelie bins, such as residents who live in terraced houses, the council also revealed a plan to buy 5,000 ‘European-style’ communal bins.

Peter Moore, Sefton Council’s Head of Highways and Public Protection, said: “This change to collecting glass recycling items would make a positive contribution to Sefton’s Climate Change Strategy as well as to the region’s environmental impact.”

This is due to the weight of glass collected, which is around 7,000 tonnes annually.

The council say that collecting glass separately produces much higher quality material which can be used for closed loop recycling, and used for re-melt rather than aggregate, making it ‘infinitely recyclable’ into new glass jars and bottles.

The quality of the other materials, such as paper, cardboard and tin cans, collected in brown bins will also deliver better quality material for recycling.

The cost of the plan and the updating of the cleansing vehicle fleet will be offset by £400,000 of

Blue wheelie bins like this one used by another council could soon be in Sefton for glass waste

recycling income generated annually over ten years from the Merseyside Recycling & Waste Authority, as a result of Sefton Council removing glass from its general recycling collections.

Mr Moore added: “I realise it would mean we are asking residents to separate out their glass items from other recycling but residents across the borough have been supportive of recycling and our climate change agenda, particularly as it as a way of us keeping down costs too.”

In its Environment Bill, which could become law in late 2020, the Government is asking for one ‘core’ item of recycling to be collected separately.

Having reviewed the core items, due to weight of the product, the ease with which it can be separated and the potential for generating income, Sefton proposed removing glass from the current brown bin collection.

If approved at a Cabinet meeting due to be held tomorrow (Thursday, September 3) the bins would be procured through a competitive process for delivery in February and March next year. Separate glass recycling collections would start in March and April.

Mr Moore added: “This fits well with other actions we are taking to improve waste storage, collection and recycling.

“This autumn we will be providing wheeled bins to approximately 5,000 houses that currently rely on black bin bag collections and, in early 2021 Europeanstyle, communal bins to approximately 5,000 others where a wheeled bin isn’t practical.”

Club bowled over by £4,000 grant to help it through pandemic THE Botanic Gardens Bowling Club in Churchtown has been boosted by £4,000 of National Lottery funding from Sport England's Community Emergency Fund towards their essential expenses during the ongoing pandemic.

The outbreak of the virus and the consequent shutdown of businesses has left the sport and physical activity sector facing a period of uncertainty.

In response, on March 31, chiefs at Sport England announced a £195m package to help the sport and physical activity sector through covid19. Within the package is a £20m Community Fund, of National Lottery money to deliver immediate funding to those who have a role in supporting the nation to be active but are experiencing short-term financial hardship or the ceasing of operations due to the impact of coronavirus.

The grant will allow Botanic Gardens Bowling Club to meet its necessary expenditure for maintenance of the greens, insurance, rent, utility charges and repairs to the floodlights.

Tim Hollingsworth, Sport England's Chief Executive, said: “We are proud to be able to provide vital funding to Botanic Gardens Bowling Club to help it Botanic Gardens through extremely Bowling Club challenging times.”

Neighbours and councillors in Litherland show off the new-look alleyway. Left: How it looked before the transformation

SOUTHPORT and Formby residents who live near “ugly alleyways” which are used for flytipping have been urged to transform them into community gardens.

A group of residents from Litherland worked with Sefton Council to get rid of rubbish dumped in an alleyway on Rufford Road and then turn it into a community space.

They are now urging other residents in Sefton to follow in their footsteps.

Helen Taylor and Jenny McKechnie, with the help of their neighbours and local councillors, have given the alleyway a new lease of life.

The cobbled alleyway is now known as Rufford Community Garden and it hosts puppet shows, swing ball competitions, board games and even socially

distanced toasted marshmallow evenings!

The space has been decorated with bunting and garland lights, along with hanging baskets and colourful flower pots.

They ’ve also started to grow their own produce, such as strawberries, chillies, coriander and mint.

Cllr Trish Hardy, Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for Communities and Housing said: “We are really delighted to see what an amazing job the community has done in Rufford Road.

“The residents have worked with the council, turning what was an ugly alleyway, filled with rubbish and weeds, into a wonderful community space, where everyone can enjoy and help bring the community

together. The residents have used their time in lockdown to create something special and have been able to make some fantastic friends along the way.

Helen added: “I would highly recommend anyone thinking of transforming your alleyway or local grotspot.

“Speak to your neighbours and try to encourage as many households to get involved and create a great community space.

“It’s an excellent way to get to know your neighbours and make new friends.”

Rufford Road Community Garden has set up an Instagram page to share tips and inspire others to clean up grot spot spaces at: www.instagram.com/ruffordcommunity garden/

Lord Street lights to be replaced thanks to funding SOUTHPORT BID chiefs have welcomed £100,000 of match funding for new decorative lights along Lord Street.

The money has been made available through a Government Acceleration Grant.

The grant is due to be spent on capital development projects and will complement the work which is well underway on a bid by the Southport Town Deal board for a larger grant of £25 million from the fund.

Southport BID’s chief executive Rachel Fitzgerald said: “The current lights in Southport have deteriorated to a point where they need completely replacing. They urgently need sorting out.

“There is a substantial cost to providing new lights in Southport, and to removing the old ones.

“Southport BID welcomes the contribution of £100,000 from the Town Deal Fund which will go some way towards the initial costs of the new lights. The remainder of the money will be paid for by the BID, which will also pay for ongoing maintenance costs.

“The lights are something for the whole town, and for visitors, to enjoy, and our BID levy payers are happy to play their part in providing them.”

Report by Tom Martin

Evan helps the homeless A KIND-HEARTED eight year old has raised £100 for the homeless community after taking on a sponsored bike ride from Burscough to Wigan.

Evan Sanchez, who is a pupil at St John’s Primary School in Burscough raised the funds for Light for Life on August 20.

Light for Life is a registered charity run by a team of dedicated professionals at Southport Housing Centre on Eastbank Street on behalf of Sefton Council. Staff based at the

centre deal with around 2,500 visits each year, from more than 1,000 members of the public requiring advice and assistance Evan’s mum Helen said: “We were sat outside one evening, with blankets, and Evan said that it made him feel very grateful and lucky that he was warm and safe.

“He decided then that he wanted to help rough sleepers so we chose Light for Life.

“He did really well, we are so proud of him – and it was all his idea.”

VOLUNTEERS at Southport Lifeboat were left horrified after a ‘mindless vandal’ slashed their training boat repeatedly with a knife.

He told the Champion: “We were saddened to find that Southport Lifeboat’s ILB training boat had been slashed in several places with a knife.

“Our old inflatable D-Class lifeboat, which was replaced in 2016 by the new ILB ‘Christopher Taylor’ had been stored on a trailer at West Lancashire Sailing Club’s dinghy park at the Marine Lake. She had helped save lives for almost 30 years in her time with the RNLI and Southport Independent Lifeboat.

IT has been a long wait but pupils will finally return to the classrooms across Sefton this week.

The new term for Sefton’s schools begins today (September 2), when youngsters from all year groups return to their primary and secondary schools.

Although this is the date given by the council, schools could reopen on different dates this week.

Some pupils have been taught in school during lockdown, including those who are the children of key workers, but the vast majority have not been in the classroom since March.

Schools will look and feel different when the new term starts because of some of the measures that have been put in place to manage the risks that remain from coronavirus.

safely ’, and they are encouraging as many pupils as possible to walk or cycle to school. A spokesperson said: “There are many ways students can travel to school. In the first instance, we encourage all students to walk, cycle or scoot to school if they can and if they live a short distance (two miles or less) from their school or further education college. This will help to reduce pressure on the public transport network for those who need it most.

“If students aren’t able to walk, cycle or scoot, they can use public transport or drive to get to their school or college. If parents or students are car-sharing with someone outside of their support bubble or family, they should share with the same people each time, open the windows for ventilation and wear a face covering if they are over 11 years old and are not exempt.

“If students are using public transport, they should continue to follow government guidelines to ensure they can travel safely on the network.”

This has been echoed by Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram, who said: “Getting our young people back into school and to something resembling normality is really important. But it is just as important to make sure that they are able to get there safely and smoothly.

“We are working with bus and rail operators to put every possible safeguard in place, but this will only work if everyone plays their part. So, I am asking everyone to do your bit too.

“Transport isn’t going to look like it did six months ago. It is now more important than ever that you plan your journeys ahead of time. Think about how and when you will travel, how you are going to pay for it and make sure you always remember to wear a face covering.”

The government announced last week that secondary pupils will have to wear face coverings in school corridors if their local area is put back into lockdown restrictions.

Headteachers in any secondary school will also have the ‘flexibility ’ to introduce masks in their schools.

Officers patrolling Crosby beach

Police warning to yobs on local beaches Report by Tom Martin POLICE will continue to crackdown on antisocial behaviour, underage drinking and drug taking along Sefton’s beaches.

The message has been reiterated by the recently formed Sefton Coastal Landscape Partnership, which includes local authorities such as Merseyside Police, Sefton Council and Merseyside Fire and Rescue.

In previous weeks, the Partnership has focussed on irresponsible parking near the beaches and other beauty spots in the borough, but officers now want to stop groups of youths causing trouble and acting in an anti-social manner.

Police say it is illegal to consume alcohol on the beach and they will use Dispersal Zones to help remove groups of yobs from the area.

Sefton Superintendent Graeme Robson said: “Throughout August, we have been reminding visitors to Sefton to act responsibly and I am pleased to say the overwhelming majority have done so. “We have had some reports of littering, fire and BBQs being lit as well as people drinking alcohol on the beaches. We have also seen cars being parked illegally and without consideration for homeowners whose drives have been blocked. “We will not tolerate anti-social behaviour, underage drinking, drug taking and other issues that could have a detrimental impact on other people visiting as well as local residents. “I want to remind everyone that a Public Spaces Protection Order has been in place since 2018 prohibiting the consumption of alcohol in areas including Formby, Crosby and Ainsdale beaches – and we have taken alcohol from people approaching the beach areas. “We will be out in force – on foot, in patrols cars, on quad bikes and anyone acting anti-socially should expect to be dealt with by police in a robust manner, and we will also support other agencies in their work. “We will continue to encourage people to keep to coronavirus guidelines, to protect themselves and others, and if necessary we will disperse people and take enforcement action. “Those who are looking to enjoy our open spaces sensibly and safely should not have to be confronted with anti-social behaviour of any kind. “We have a number of tools at our disposal to prevent and tackle anti-social behaviour, including the introduction of Dispersal Zones, but it is our hope that people visiting the area will treat the environment and residents with respect.�

BHS site bought for £500,000 THE former BHS building on Chapel Street in Southport, has been bought at auction for £500,000, according to a report by the BBC. The new owner of the site is thought to be ‘local’ but it is not known what the future plans are for the building which housed BHS until the store chain closed in 2016.

The building is currently part used as a pop up outlet as well as a mobile phone repair shop.

The BBC report focussed on the number of BHS stores which remain empty four years after the chain’s collapse - believed to be 1 in 4 and the struggle to reoccupy them in the present high street climate.

The sale of the Southport site offers at least some hope that moves are afoot for the whole of the multistory building to be put to use again.

Plans to transform town’s market move a step closer Report by Danielle Thompson PLANS to turn Southport Market into a ‘unique food and drink offer’ are set to be presented to Sefton Council's formal Cabinet this week.

The report will recommend a £1.4 million redesign and refurbishment of the site, creating a modern food and drinks space, along with a flexible events and market area.

The new-look market will be an all year round attraction with space for up to eight food and drinks units, providing, it is hoped, a ‘vital vital boost to the local economy economy.’

Units will also be available for fresh produce stalls, including Blackhurst Butchers, with all traders being offered turnover rental agreements to ensure low risk to their business.

Funding for the project has already been successfully secured from both the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority and the Southport Town Deal acceleration fund. If the plans are approved by Cabinet, it is hoped work will begin on the exciting project in late 2020.

Cllr Marion Atkinson, Sefton Council's Labour Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills, welcomed the latest stage of the project, saying: “This ambitious and exciting project is a cornerstone of what the Southport Town Deal is all about and securing additional external funding to completely transform the building shows real commitment from Sefton Council.

“We fully understand the impact consumer

The bold new plans for Southport’s Indoor Market

habits and demand has on historical indoor markets and there is a clear need to ensure this impressive venue evolves into a modern and stunning food and drinks space.

“This project will create fantastic opportunities for new business start ups and job creation, and we have shown our full commitment to helping these businesses to grow by implementing a turnover rental model.

“We are extremely excited to see the project progress even further and we have been delighted at the wealth of positive feedback and support we have received from residents and businesses so far for this transformation.” l Use market funds to refurbish rundown Princess Diana Gardens, says Councillor - see story on p18

Pubs and bars urged to record customer details PUB and bar staff in Sefton have been reminded to take contact details for customers to help prevent an outbreak of coronavirus.

Businesses in the hospitality sector, which also includes restaurants and cafes, have been urged by council leaders to keep a temporary record of customers to assist the NHS Test and Trace should virus cases develop.

Cllr Ian Moncur, Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for Health and Wellbeing, said: “Pubs and bars should have in place a way of recording their customers’ contact details so that if there are cases of coronavirus associated with the premises, they can be traced, warned and instructed to isolate.

“These simple measures on arrival are for the protection of customers and staff but are also there to protect the hospitality sector and the wider economy by reducing the possibility of a wider COVID-19 outbreak and the potential need to introduce local restrictions, which would have a negative effect on everyone.

“Personally, if I arrived at a pub bar or restaurant that didn’t have tracing measures in place, I wouldn’t stay.”

Sarah Rodriguez from Southport BID said: “Business owners in Southport have worked incredibly hard since reopening to ensure their customers and staff are safe and have shown a great deal of respect for the social distancing guidelines as a community.

“We do back Sefton’s plea to ensure that we work together to ensure that these high standards continue. As a team, we are available for any support and resources to help you implement the measures are available on our website, https://southportbid.com.”

Sefton Council’s Environmental Health team has been working with businesses across the borough to help them put in place the measures needed to keep employees and customers safe.

“The plan would also have a serious effect on Holy Trinity Junior School since access to the school is by way of Hoghton Street and parents would be unable to drop off or collect their children from the school by car.

“None of the businesses and organisations which have their home on Hoghton Street were consulted by the Council before the plan was implemented, meaning there has been little time for protests to be organised.

“The scheme is dangerous, ill-thought-out and with a total lack of forethought for its impact on the school, the church and the local community. It will have an effect on Southport Little Theatre, Reuters and The Office as well as all of the other organisations and businesses.”

A Sefton Council spokespersons said: “We have

been successful in securing funding for two schemes in Bootle and Southport Town Centre.

“These two schemes are based on key routes previously identified in the Liverpool City Region Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan and make it easier and safer for people to visit town centre shops, workplaces and other facilities by bike or on foot.

“Because the Government stipulated Emergency Active Travel Fund schemes had to be started within four weeks and completed within eight weeks of the funding being approved, it was not possible to carry out a consultation in the way we normally would. However However, all properties on the routes have been sent explanatory leaflets.

“The Council will be monitoring the routes and keeping them under review.”

New ‘NHS 111 First’ service aims to help reduce overcrowding at hospitals... and the risk of virus transmission A NEW service which aims to reduce overcrowding and the risk of transmitting COVID-19 in hospital emergency departments, will be rolled out across the north west in time for winter.

The enhanced ‘NHS 111 First’ service will offer a booked time slot in emergency departments to patients with an urgent – but not serious or life-threatening – illness or injury.

The new approach will be rolled out in phases across the north west when it will be tested and evaluated before being rolled out more widely by all hospital trusts with an emergency department through the autumn.

NHS North West Medical Director Dr David Levy said: “By asking people to contact NHS 111 first and advising them where and when to go, we can more safely manage waiting areas, reducing the potential for crowding and thus significantly lowering the risk of COVID-19

Dr David Levy

transmission. No patient will be turned away if they self-present at an emergency department but if people contact NHS 111 first when they need urgent care, advice on the best care can be arranged before they have to travel anywhere and often urgent issues can be fully dealt with by telephone or video consultation.

“If a face-to-face consultation is needed it can be arranged there and then, without any further

delay meaning patients will know exactly where to go, and when. This will help to ensure safety and reduce waiting times for all patients”.

The national NHS 111 First programme is being introduced to improve outcomes and patient experience in healthcare settings during COVID-19 and provide a long-term model of access to urgent and emergency care services.

Patients who are thinking about going to an emergency department will be asked to contact NHS 111 first instead of walking in unannounced.

The service, in conjunction with local Clinical Assessment Services (CAS) will, where appropriate, book a time slot for attendance at an emergency department or may book or direct them to a more appropriate local service, which could be an urgent treatment centre, GP practice or pharmacy.

People who need emergency care should still call 999.

Man who learned how to walk again after near-fatal accidents, raises funds for centre

by Danielle Thompson A FORMBY man who had to build his life back up from scratch not once, but twice, after two nearfatal accidents, has raised more than £1,000 for the medical centre which saved his life.

Colin Flynn, 51, was only 20 when he was involved in his first road traffic accident in 1989.

He suffered a major head injury and was moved from Southport Hospital to the Walton Centre where he was in a coma for three weeks.

Following an operation, Colin came out of his coma but had to learn to walk again.

Then, horror struck once more when Colin was knocked down at Manchester Airport when returning from holiday. He was taken to Salford Royal and was put into an induced coma.

Colin recovered but had to learn to walk yet again before a fall caused him to break his hip, making his recovery all the harder.

After being inspired by Captain Tom’s recordbreaking fundraiser for the NHS, Colin took on 100 lengths of the close where he lives and has raised £1,070 for the Walton Centre.

His physiotherapist Amanda, said: “Colin has managed to carve out a new life for himself and worked part time for 20 years at St Joseph’s. But it was travelling independently and walking that became his passion.

“Tragically, returning from a holiday in 2016, Colin was knocked down at Manchester Airport.

“It has taken sheer determination and positivity that has enabled Colin to pick himself back up and, although he hasn't been able to return to work, he

The club is back up and running after an enforced lay off due to the Coronavirus.

Following a socially distanced end of season presentation in glorious August sunshine all teams from Under 7’s to Seniors have now returned to training.

With our new Head of Rugby, Nick King taking the reins. Nick will Coach the 1st XV but will also be responsible for all coach development for Minis, Junior and Colts.

Nick has already strengthened the Seniors coaching team and has brought an excitement and dynamism to Senior training, which re-started in July.

The club has adopted a motto of ‘one badge – one club’ to make clear to everyone that the club is equally focused

on all teams and not just the Senior Rugby Section. As Head of Rugby Nick King said:

Junior rugby at the club. That is why I will be working hard to ensure that we give all our coaches the skills they need to develop the young talent in their teams.

The One Badge, One Club is a powerful motto and one that the while club has received phenomenally well. We were delighted that so many players of all age groups, parents, friends and volunteers attended our recent Party on the Pitch Awards Day. We are excited that we have so many people keen to support all age groups both male and female encouraging them to play rugby at Tarleton‘.

‘This club has always developed its players from Minis through to Seniors. Last season we regularly had 15 of the 18 man squad for the 1st XV that played Mini and

has been fully engaged in major rehabilitation over the past four years. Even though a fall resulted in a broken hip in September 2019, he is determined to keep mobile.

“He was discharged from hospital weeks later with a walking frame and has since worked tirelessly with his physiotherapy team to increase his walking distance and by Christmas of that year he was no longer reliant on a frame and walked with the aid of a stick.

“After seeing the inspirational work of the NHS and the amazing feats of Captain Tom, Colin was motivated to walk 100 lengths of his close with out his walking stick.

“He was able to raise £,1070 for the Walton centre and many of his friends, family and neighbours cheered on the last session. He is extremely proud of what he has achieved as are his rehab team and family.”

Book pays moving tribute to Japanese prisoner of war who died in sea atrocity

by Danielle Thompson THE great-niece of a Japanese prisoner of war has written a deeply moving book based on his life.

Jack Frith was a survivor who managed to live through the very worst the world could throw at him. Now, after 10 years of painstaking research, Jacquelyn Frith, from Southport, has published ‘Unwritten Letters To Spring Street’ - Spring Street is actually a lost street in Manchester now under a motorway!

Ordered to build a runway for the planned Japanese invasion of Australia, he had endured almost two years as a Far East prisoner of war where he suffered horrific beatings, disease, malnutrition and forced on marches at the point of a bayonet.

Two weeks after his 23rd birthday, Jack survived a torpedo attack when the ship he was being transported on was sunk in the Java Sea. But as he swam away from his sinking vessel, the Suez Maru, he was among around 250 British

Jack Frith, above, and, right, his great niece Jacquelyn Frith who has penned a book about his ordeal as a POW

and Dutch POWs to be gunned down in the water by his Japanese captors.

One of the worst atrocities of the Second World War was kept a closely guarded secret for decades by the Government of the time. A War Crime Trial that was due to bring the Japanese perpetrators of the atrocities to justice in 1949 was controversially dropped and they never faced justice, while his grieving family were never told the grim truth about how he died.

A memorial to the British POWs aboard Suez Maru who were murdered by the Japanese

An affordable stunning makeover that simply

was dedicated on 29 November 2013, the 70th anniversary, at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire. It was designed by Jacquelyn and her father, and built by the families of the Suez Maru men. Those aboard the hellship were from all over the country, with one from Southport too.

Jacquelyn, 48, is an archaeologist who specialises in medieval metallurgical collections. The mum-of-one grew up in Walton before moving to Southport when she was 10-years-old.

I am dismayed by the lack of foresight shown by MP Damien Moore in leading the attack on the cycling proposals to make Southport less congested and at the same time providing a less hazardous and pleasant experience for shoppers in the town centre.

He says he is in favour of a green recovery on the one hand but opposes the first green initiatives before they even get off the ground.

The streets of a modern town centre should be pedestrianised (like Chapel Street!) with access for the disabled and cyclists, offering safe and pollution-free routes for shoppers. They should not be car parks.

There are plenty of designated car parks around the town centre where most of the businesses are as long as people are prepared to take some exercise and have a short walk.

I do agree however, that all the car parks should be free as this single act would guarantee to boost the numbers visiting shoppers.

This would be far more attractive than continuing to allow parking on streets such as Queens Road, which is a good walk from the centre and very often busy and dangerous for cyclists due to parked vehicles.

Dave Wheatley, Southport

Cycling free-for-all I completely agree with Damien Moore, MP, that the Council’s rushed plans for cycle routes through the town centre are a bad idea, but for slightly different reasons.

Chapel Street is already a cycling freefor-all, with hundreds of people a day ignoring the ‘No Cycling’ signs.

The idea that if routes are painted on the ground every cyclist will stay within them is naïve.

As for ‘share with care’ tell that to the individuals who charge down Chapel Street treating every pedestrian a part of an obstacle course.

I am fed up of stepping outside one of the shops to just miss a bike whistling past my face.

People on foot matter too.

It’s the same story on the pavements of Lord Street, while only recently I was nearly run over by a bike on the pier. More reasons not to support the town centre.

What is needed is a properly thought through cycling plan, including education and enforcement, not just a few hastily painted lines and a tick in the box for the Council.

Banish grey forever OH J.Brown from Sefton, I could not agree more with your letter regarding the vision of grey dullness that is creeping in everywhere... so depressing!

I would gladly join a campaign to banish grey forever - especially

for the front of pubs, houses and fences.

I had a lovely day in New Brighton last week, the houses all have colourful doors and lots of flowers in the gardens, so cheerful.

Kath Davies, Maghull

l I wholeheartedly agree with J.Brown’s letter about increasing greyness in our surroundings.

This is a trend that began with pubs painting their facades nasty, off-putting shades of grey, which then spread to shop fronts and then domestic houses and fences.

I can only live in hope that this awful trend dies out quickly.

J Smith, Sefton l I totally sympathise with J Brown,s letter about the dull grey fences etc creeping into neighbourhoods.

And even worse - painting brickwork white often spoiling a Victorian street permanently. It may look fine for a while but soon looks shoddy.

David Atherton, Southport

Slap-dash road repairs As soon as I saw the yellow roadsigns dotted around Southport declaring ‘road re-dressing’ I knew what was to come.

For the last several years at least we have had a slap-dash resurfacing of our roads, loose stones thrown into a bit of hot tar and the motorist immediately allowed to drive on it with the result that it’s being torn back up as soon as it’s laid - the latest being Marshside Road leading up to the sandworks.

What an utter waste of time and tax payers and roadfund licence payer’s money. Will we ever have a decent road to drive on in Southport?

Ian Hewitt, Southport

Patient care must come first I must praise the statement in the Champion (August 12) attributed to Sefton Central MP, Labour ’s Bill Esterson.

In the article ‘NHS safe with the Tories’ he says ‘Our NHS should be about patient care, not making profit for private companies’.

The independent report, published in July 2020, concerning Primados, Sodium Valproate and Pelvic mesh was highly critical and made many recommendations concerning how the NHS is currently organised.

I hope that these recommendations are actually implemented immediately as these products have made undeserved profits to Big Pharma.

It is also true that the right to produce certain drugs which are no longer under patent, have been acquired by unscrupulous ‘entrepreneurs’ who have increased the price extortionately within the UK, yet the NHS has continued buying them without seeking out far cheaper alternatives which perform equally as well.

The doctors and nurses on the front line are doing a fantastic job under extreme pressure but it is a similar situation to that in the Great War where the infantry - the ‘lions’ - were led by the ‘donkeys’.

John Lee, Southport

Staff are fighting to maintain NHS Following his letter in the Champion (August 19, 2020), I would like to ask Mr J Marshall if he is aware his claims, that criticisms of the government’s approach to the NHS amount to ‘spreading untrue and malicious gossip’, are rudely disregarding the opinions of the vast majority of NHS staff?

I work in a hospital that is understaffed to the point where it is frequently an unsafe working environment.

I work in a Trust where various services have been expunged to the detriment of patients who do not get the support that, in my clinical judgement, they sorely need simply because the funds and resources to provide it don’t exist any longer in the public sector.

I do so for a pay deal that amounts to a real terms pay cut due to the freeze imposed by this government in 2010 - a pay deal so poor that the unions had

to apologise to staff for their role in negotiating it.

Is it any wonder there are 40,000 nursing vacancies when not only are the conditions so undesirable, our objections to them are scorned?

I implore Mr Marshall to avoid further disrespecting NHS workers through his use of disingenuous government PR fluff to obscure what we, the people on the ground, are trying to tell the public.

If you love and value the NHS, please listen to staff and realise we do need to fight for its continued existence as the government is not telling the absolute truth and will gradually erode it to nothing if doing so profits private enterprise; many Conservative party members and donors would reap huge rewards from a privatised health care system.

Remind them that this is not what the public want; stand alongside us in protecting the NHS. JK, (nurse),

THE RSPCA’s Southport, Ormskirk and District Branch has been praised for its work by Southport MP Damien Moore.

The RSPCA Animal Centre on New Cut Lane, on the Birkdale/Halsall border, covers Southport, Ormskirk and the surrounding areas as far south as Maghull.

Mr Moore was delighted to visit the centre, on New Cut Lane in Halsall to meet staff and find out how they had coped during the pandemic.

He was given a tour around the facility by branch chair Dr David West, branch manager Damien Moore with one of the centre's cats Paul Gibson and other staff members and volunteers. He spent around two hours taking a look been vulnerable during this pandemic, and it is at the rescue animals on-site and learning more about important that they are well cared for.

Online learning opportunities available During the last two years, Sefton Community Learning Service has significantly developed its IT infrastructure and accelerated the use of ICT (computers) within all subject areas. It is with great anticipation that the Service is further extending its reach deep into the heart of the community through using ICT (computers). This will enable learners who may not be able to attend more traditional classroom set lessons to fully participate and engage in learning within a safe and professional environment using a range of methods. Some learners will be able to attend classroom sessions, some learners will be able to access the sessions via a live video link which will be provided, It is anticipated that sessions will be recorded to allow learners to catch up at a more convenient time by accessing video catch up and online portfolio and task completion.

A RETIRED industrial design engineer in Hightown has invented what he claims is a ‘game changing’ air purifier which could transform the way public areas are made safe from coronavirus.

Michael Ashley developed ‘Sentinel’ in his garage workshop and has secured funding to produce 500,000 units for use in schools, offices and hospitals. He says that the air steriliser has the power to kill the virus ten times over and would make the air that we share safe.

He was visited by Formby MP Bill Esterson, who said the invention could open up public spaces and help make hospitals, schools and many other workplaces safe from Covid and other airborne viruses.

Mr Ashley told the MP: “Clearly Covid is not going away any time soon, and one of the areas that noone has dealt with in terms of mitigation is the air that we share. So a system that sterilises air and does that utterly reliably, has to have a place in our defence against this dreadful situation.

“I’m a retired industrial design engineer. This has brought me out of retirement with a small team of equally experienced engineers and we’ve created a range of products that are covid facing but the reality is that this product will sterilise and deal with any living organism that is passed through it and it will achieve sterilisation rates of 99.999%.

“And it does it using technology that everyone has been living with because it deals with UVC sterilisation.

“We've simply created an environment where we can capture the UVC safely in a plenum chamber, pass a high volume of air through it and guarantee the sterilisation of that air. And we've got a kill rating in this machine that is utterly phenomenal. It

has way over 10 times the power that is required to kill Covid as it passes through this machine.

“Obviously, the impact this could make in many environments - not least of all, of course, are classrooms, but it goes way beyond that. The product could be utilised in the NHS, prisons, the court service - anywhere where people gather and people work.”

Mr Esterson said: “This really does look like a game changer in the fight against Covid-19. I have asked the Department of Health to look at this with urgency. It could change the way we fight this awful disease. I was massively impressed with what Michael showed me.

“It’s incredible that this machine has been invented right here in Hightown. Well done to Michael and his team. I will push the government to take a look at this and pursue installing these machines in as many public places as possible.”

l Cracked and broken flags at the Town Hall Gardens

Calls made for Town Hall Gardens to be refurbished.. before site ‘turns to rubble’ CALLS are being made for the Town Hall Gardens to be refurbished ‘before it turns to rubble’.

The area, known locally as the Princess Diana Gardens, which are in front of Southport Town Hall on Lord Street, are in an ‘atrocious’ condition according to Dukes Ward Councillor John Pugh.

He said: “Some of the £1m grant Sefton Council has got to remodel Southport Market should be used on urgent repairs as the current condition of the paving is a source of embarrassment for Sefton with scores of cracked and damaged flags right in front of the Town Hall.

“The Council and the Town Deal Board have agreed the Market project is the priority but the Princess Diana Gardens desperately needs a complete re-vamp now. This has gone beyond basic maintenance or lack of it. As such it could qualify for the funds the government have made available. The government want to fund schemes that can be up and running this year and there’s a project here we should talk about with them.

“I believe the refurbishment of the Princess Diana Gardens is a quicker

by Danielle Thompson fix than finding a viable future for the Market and spending just some of the money on the gardens should save the Council’s blushes.

“Unlike the Market it's an area every visitor and resident sees. If things deteriorate further, we’ll be walking over rubble.”

A spokesperson for Sefton Council said: “The Town Hall Gardens are regularly inspected by our attendant supervisor for any serious hazards or defects. The gardens are also routinely cleaned and jet-washed by our cleansing teams.

“Our budgets only currently allow us to carry out urgent repairs and essential works to rectify any potential hazardous defects.

“The criteria associated with the accelerated grant opportunity were clear, and the Southport Market project particularly aligns with those in delivering job creation and economic benefit within the defined timescales.”

Trouble in store for dogs due to lockdown?

RESEARCH by the Dogs Trust claims 30% of dog owners in the north west believe the disrupted routine brought about by coronavirus has led to a change in behaviour.

An increase in whining or barking, clingy needs and attention seeking are all highlighted.

Rachel Casey, Director of Canine Behaviour and Research at Dogs Trust, said: “While some dogs have been happy to have their human family at home more, others have been stressed by reduced exercise, inability to find a quiet place to rest or no contact with other dogs.

“Our research shows some early warning signs that lockdown had a negative impact on some dogs’ behaviour.

“Dogs that had separation anxiety before the lockdown are likely to get worse when left again as owners head back to work - but we also expect to see new cases developing, because other dogs, and particularly puppies, have learnt to expect company all day.

“We could well see a rise in the number of dogs needing our help because of this.”

National Dementia Carers Day Sunday 13th September 2020

There are currently 850,000 people with dementia in the UK, more than ever before, and this number is projected to increase.

Due to the gradual nature of dementia, the mild early-stage symptoms and the low diagnosis rate, it is difficult to know the exact number of people living with the condition. Several studies have been carried out to determine the prevalence of dementia among particular age groups, and these are used to estimate the total numbers of people living with dementia in the UK. Many people living with dementia rely on the love, support and care of family members, friends and unpaid carers.

with dementia every day.

National Dementia Carers’ Day, founded

by Dementia UK, SweetTree Home Care Services and the Alzheimer’s Society was established to share, recognise, and support this crucial role.

Now in its sixth year, the annual awareness day will this year take place on Sunday 13th September 2020, within Alzheimer’s Awareness Month. It aims to highlight the huge number of informal and family carers who provide innovative and compassionate support for relatives

Each of the foundering organisations is dedicated to improving the quality of life for people living with dementia and the quality of life of those caring for a loved one living with the condition. The founders are aligned in the overall aim of raising awareness of and supporting the role of informal dementia carers.

Caring for a loved one with dementia poses many challenges for families and caregivers. Living with dementia requires having the right care, and it’s time to recognise and share what it means to be a carer.

FANTASTIC DEMENTIA CARE AT FORMBY MANOR The team at Formby Manor understand that looking for a care home for a loved one is a hard task and a truly difficult decision to make, even more so at the moment. For individuals struggling to manage independently at home, it can be especially hard to select the right home.

Formby Manor is the care home of choice in Formby and the surrounding area, providing an exceptional clinical offering, including residential, nursing and dementia care services. Highly regarded by residents and relatives, the care facility remained open continually throughout the pandemic, with the team dedicated to caring for all residents, keeping them safe.

“With something like this, its coping that matters - and I feel that we’ve coped well here. They don’t wait until you need something, they always check that I have everything I could possibly need. It’s lovely. The staff were excellent. I knew that I was always able to talk to anyone if I wanted. Everyone has been so friendly and helpful - they’ve made me feel secure and comfortable during these scary times. They are always so pleasant without being intrusive. I’ve never seen any signs of worry on their faces. I feel cared for and never alone - they always check and see if I’m okay and well looked after. They do more sometimes for you than they may need.“ Maureen Balmer

Featuring fully furnished, private bedrooms with en suite wet rooms, plus a selection of stylish lounges and restaurants throughout, allowing residents to be cared for in small, safe environments reducing the risk of infection within the home, safety is at the heart of Formby Manor.

Furthermore, the wellbeing of all residents is hugely important at Formby Manor, with a daily schedule of different activities planned that are both purposeful and stimulating, ensuring residents remain busy, active and sociable. Social distancing face-to-face meetings with close family have re-started, and the team continue to organise virtual visits with friends and extended family members, allowing residents to keep in constant touch with loved ones. The team at Formby Manor have created a warm, safe and vibrant community.

“The management and staff show nothing but care and affection to both residents and their families.”

“The very difficult decision of having to make a non-family care provision was made much easier as soon as I stepped inside Formby Manor …the care and attention that is given to my mum is excellent and she is stimulated physically and mentally.”

“I would not hesitate in recommending Formby Manor to any family that is looking for 5* care for their loved ones.”

know about Dementia Dementia is not a natural part of ageing We all forget a name or a face sometimes.

Especially as we get older. But dementia is something different.

Memory problems are one of a number of symptoms that people with dementia may experience. Others include difficulties with planning, thinking things through, struggling to keep up with a conversation, and sometimes changes in mood or behaviour.

Dementia is not a natural part of ageing and it doesn’t just affect older people.

Over 40,000 people under 65 in the UK have dementia. This is called early-onset or young-onset dementia.

Dementia is caused by diseases of the brain

Our care home has a dedicated Activities Co-ordinator who organises and arranges daily activities in our home and in the local community for our residents.

Also organised day trips for leisure as well as social events in the home including arts and crafts, quizzes, entertainers and themed restaurant evenings

Diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease cause nerve cells to die, damaging the structure and chemistry of the brain.

There are lots of other causes and no two types of dementia are the same.

In different types of dementia there is damage to different parts of the brain.

Other types of dementia include: • vascular dementia (caused by problems with blood supply to the brain) • mixed dementia (usually Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia) • dementia with Lewy bodies • frontotemporal dementia (including Pick’s disease) Alzheimer’s disease tends to start slowly and progress gradually. Vascular dementia after a stroke often progresses in a ‘stepped’ way. This means that symptoms are stable for a while and then suddenly get worse.

Everyone experiences dementia in their own way. Lots of things can affect this, including the person’s attitude to their diagnosis and their physical health.

Other factors include the relationships they have with friends and family, the treatment and support they get, and their Continued overleaf > surroundings.

Not all Residential Care Homes are the same...

Damfield Gardens This month we celebrate the sixth year of National Dementia Carers Day, 13th September 2020. This day highlights the huge number of informal and family carers who provide innovative and compassionate support for their relatives with forms of dementia daily. Everyone at Highpoint Care would like to sincerely acknowledge and thank all ‘informal carers’ who have shown and continue to show immense levels of care and compassion for their unpaid and often unrecognised work especially in what has been an incredibly difficult few months for everyone involved in the Social Care Sector nationwide.

This annual awareness day takes place during Alzheimer’s Awareness Month and the management at Highpoint Care would like to take this opportunity to thank all our conscientious staff who work tirelessly and do a brilliant job in caring for our residents across both our Care Homes particularly through the recent difficult times. Highpoint’s purple and Alzheimer’s purple both combine the calm stability of blue and the passionate energy of red, emphasising that both are strong and unrelenting in their fight against Alzheimer’s disease.

Highpoint’s bespoke, purpose-built facilities aim to provide the highest standards of individualised care Merseyside has to offer. Wanting to change the perception of adult residential care, Highpoint Care was founded in 2013, under the principles and beliefs that everyone deserves the highest possible standard of care, within a homely, comfortable, happy and safe environment. Being a family business, Highpoint Care whole-heartedly understands and empathises with the difficult decisions families have to make when considering care for their loved ones and we make it our absolute priority to ensure each of our residents receive quality care tailored to you.

Set in 10 acres of picturesque parkland, Damfield Gardens is a 67 bed, all en-suite residential care home which provides both residential and dementia care over three floors, uniquely incorporating luxury living alongside the highest standards of care with exceptional design and the latest innovations. These innovations include: on-site salons, a cinema room, a pub room, sensory gardens, as well as the recent introduction of our robotic cats, dogs and interactive tables which provide our residents with a variety of stimulating activities. Despite the difficult few months, we’ve ensured our residents have had a fabulous time doing what they enjoy with many garden concerts also being incorporated into our activities syllabus; please view our Facebook page ‘Highpoint Care Ltd’ so you can see what our residents have been getting up to!

In February we were thrilled to have appointed Simon Shaw as our Home Manager. Simon is passionate about providing high quality person-centred care by developing and investing in his team and enabling them to deliver this with compassion and dignity, whilst promoting independence for all.

We currently have exciting job opportunities available, please see our website for further details

Dementia Friendly Bathrooms The bathroom is one of the most challenging and dangerous places for a person living with dementia.

Dementia can cause someone’s perception of danger to steadily diminish and the bathroom can become a dangerous and confusing place. People with dementia are twice as likely to fall and these falls result in significantly higher mortality rates than for others in the same age group. Hazards are numerous and include trip points, slippery floors, hot water and confusing layouts. What was once a comfortable and familiar room can become a challenging and sometimes frightening place that can cause upset, frustration and a reluctance to use the bathroom What is a dementia-friendly bathroom?

A dementia-friendly bathroom is one where simple but careful consideration of design can reduce the barriers that people with dementia can face in carrying out daily living activities, greatly improving their safety and preserving their independence for as long as possible.

Someone with dementia may progressively lose safety awareness and as a result they will become more vulnerable to scalding. Select thermostatic taps and showers. Use low surface temperature radiators or even better, underfloor heating. Don’t leave pipework exposed as this can get extremely hot.

Avoid sharp edges on any fixtures in the bathroom in case of falls. Remove the bath and install a level access shower to reduce trip hazards. Include a shower seat to reduce the likelihood of falling when showering. Choose PET plastic shower screens, not glass and consider installing under-floor heating only so there is no radiator to fall against. Choose shower curtains with a breathable fabric to prevent suffocation if the person with dementia passes out, falls and becomes entangled Short term memory loss and forgetfulness can lead to a risk of flooding. Consider selecting a shower that automatically turns off after 30 minutes of use . For flood prevention consider using flood-proof plugs or don’t provide a plug at all Use contrasting colours to clearly define the showering and toilet areas so the user can safely and effectively locate and use them. The shower curtain and shower seat need to be a different and clearly contrasting plain colour to the wall behind it to make it easy to find the showering area. The toilet needs to be a different colour to the wall behind it, the toilet seat needs to be a different colour to the toilet pan / cistern and any grab rails also need to be strongly contrasting colours to the walls they are attached to.

Financial Protection for People with a Disability Caring for a loved one with a disability can bring many challenges. Aside from the day-to-day concerns of making sure they are receiving the appropriate care, there is also the added worry about making sure they are financially protected and secure when you are no longer around.

Sally Johnson, solicitor and Deputy Head of our Wills Trusts and Probate department at Heswall comments: One way to ensure your loved one is financially protected is to place assets in a trust, either during your lifetime or on death, by your Will. A trust is a legal structure where ownership of assets passed to the trust are owned and managed by the trustees.

Whilst many people still consider trusts as a means of reducing their inheritance tax liability, or preserving assets from being used to pay for care, they are now being used more and more as a tool to protect potential beneficiaries with disabilities.

Establishing a trust during your lifetime, or in your Will is an ideal way of benefitting a disabled person, who perhaps lacks the capacity to manage their own financial assets, or who may be vulnerable to outside influences.

Utilising a trust can ensure that money is not dissipated, either as a result of an individual’s own behaviour, or because they are vulnerable to exploitation by others. Whilst the trustees retain the control over the assets held by the trust, they also have the discretion to make sure funds are available, not only for day to day living expenses and care, but also for ‘extras’, such as holidays or entertainment.

There are several types of trusts which can be used, dependent on a particular family’s circumstance, and the individual needs of the beneficiary. Factors, such as the need for flexibility within the trust for payments to be made to more than one potential beneficiary, or the need to maximise entitlements to

ADVERTISING FEATURE

Welfare Benefits, the amount of money that is likely to be put into the trust, and the tax treatment of the trust, will effectively dictate which trust is most suitable for your needs.

Due to the various factors that need to be considered it is important that you seek appropriate advice. The specialist knowledge of our team at Jackson Lees can assist in guiding you through the process, ensuring that the most appropriate type of trust is chosen, taking into account both tax and all other relevant factors.

Since lockdown began, we have remained very much open for business virtually and continue to handle all client cases and new enquiries as if we were in the office. We are able to offer telephone consultations, and, where practical, video meetings.

ANYONE else remember an era when almost every other police car seemed to be a Volvo V70 in full ‘Battenburg’ livery?

Sweden’s go-faster estate – specifically, the V70 T5 – had everything the boys in blue could have asked for at the time.

The rear load area was voluminous enough to swallow all those traffic cones, breathalyser kits and all the clobber essential for traffic patrol duties, it was comfortable enough for two officers to spend vast swathes of their shifts venturing up and down various parts of the nation’s motorway network and crucially, the instant the blue lights lit up its wonPlace your FREE derful five-cylinder engine could deploy upwards of 250bhp, easily enough to rein in a stolen Vauxhall advert online at Belmont or three.

Trying t sell you vehicle

Only it should have been the even more powerful and better-balanced BMW M3 Touring – if only the chaps in Munich had actually made such a thing at the time.

Now, roughly 25 years on, they’ve finally got around to it. They’ve toyed with the idea before, Place your F creating load-lugging versions of various previous M3s, but for whatever reason they’ve always con- online advert cluded that going fast and carrying IKEA palletes should be the domain of the bigger, faster,champnews. and far pricier M5.

BMW ’s own press release on the subject is wonderfully vague, saying only that it’ll be a bit wider than the current 3-Series Touring and that it’ll be full of the ‘iconic M DNA’ which makes it sound like it’s been hanging out too much with clubbers at an illegal lockdown rave.

Happily, you can piece together enough from what it’ll be sharing with the forthcoming M4 to assume it’ll share its turbocharged straight six, good for either 480bhp or 510bhp in Competitionor spec, the option of four-wheel-drive, a six-speed manual gearbox and a starting price of somewhere around £80k.

Place your FR I’m guessing that even with the current pledge to increase funding for the nation’s policing,advert that’s online going to be a bit steep. champnews.c All of which means that motorway policing is going to remain the preserve, of course, of the or call for a other fast practical kind of BMW – the X5, which has been the staple of road traffic officers foradvert at on least a decade now.

Inevitably, there’ll be an M-powered version of 3923 01704 the X5 or X3 that shares the latest M3’s underpinnings, but it’s never going to be as outright quick, or as scalpel-sharp through the bends, as the M3 Touring that the villains themselves are using.

Sorry, officers. I think you should start asking your bosses nicely for an M3 Touring – it is today’s Volvo T5. If you’re going to spend hours at the helm of a big estate car, you might as well make it the fastest one money can buy…
