PORTRAIT OF A WAR HERO

WIN! Family tickets for Gulliver’s HUNDREDS of residents turned out to take part in a unique public commemorative event on Formby Beach on Remembrance Sunday.

Pages Of The Sea was devised by film-maker Danny Boyle to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of World War One. The Formby event was one of 32 around the country featuring portraits etched in the sand of soldiers who left for the First World War by sea.

It came to a poignant end when the image was washed away by the incoming sea.

The portrait chosen for the Formby commemoration was of Captain John Basil Armitage. His picture was drawn into the sand early Sunday morning before disappearing into the noon tide.

Minister backs plans to reinstate seven-day Southport to Manchester Piccadilly train service

FREE QUOTES Southport’s Largest Family Run Business

{

PROPOSALS to reinstate the seven-day service between Southport and Manchester Piccadilly offer ‘good value for money’ according to the Northern Powerhouse minister Jake Berry.

He made the case for the line after lobbying from the town’s MP Damien Moore.

Writing to Transport Secretary Chris Grayling, Mr Berry argued that the proposals - drawn up by the Southport Rail Transport Forum and the Ormskirk, Preston, and Southport Travellers Association - should be ‘seriously considered’ by his department.

The proposals include further investment so Northern can operate additional Class 769 trains, as well as a marketing campaign to recover passengers lost after the disruption from the timetable changes.

The SouthportManchester Piccadilly line is ‘of strategic importance both for the North West and the wider Northern Powerhouse’, the minister said.

Last week the Champion revealed that additional rail ser-

vices between Southport and Manchester will start in December following discussions between a pressure group and Northern.

Members of a working group set up to lobby for the reinstatement of the full Southport to Manchester Piccadilly rail service say they have reached a new agreement for seven daily services, an increase from the current four. The group, made up of rail users, members of Merseytravel, Northern and Transport for the North, met up with Northern’s newly-appointed regional director West, Chris Jackson to discuss progress on

reinstating the full direct service.

Southport MP Damien Moore welcomed the support, adding: “The Northern Powerhouse is about ensuring Southport and other areas can prosper from the significant investment being made by the government. Our proposals are practical, and I hope they will be taken up.”

Birkdale Ward Councillor Ron Watson added: “Transport infrastructure is clearly critical to Southport and this is where the input of the town's MP Damien Moore really has been positive. I know that his efforts particularly in respect of the vital line to Manchester are critical.”

Captain Armitage's image was scored into the sand at Formby Beach - and it was then washed away by the tide

‘Formby can feel proud that it was chosen to host one of the poignant Pages of the Sea events’ From page 1 In addition, members of the public were asked to join in the special commemoration by creating silhouettes of people in the sand to remember the millions of lives lost or changed forever by the conflict.

The portrait of Captain Armitage was chosen for Formby to represent the losses during the war and for his links to the North West area. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission, who have shared a feature about Captain Armitage online, care for 12,000 sites up and down the country.

Their Formby commitments include three casualties at St. Luke's Churchyard, 15 at St. Peter's Churchyard and 20 at Our Lady Of Compassion Roman Catholic Churchyard.

Poet Carol Ann Duffy was invited by Boyle to write a new poem, The Wound in Time, which individuals, families and communities read as they gathered on the beaches.

Sefton Central MP Bill Esterson said the event at Formby was ‘front and centre’ of the World War One commemorations.

He said: “Formby can feel proud that it was chosen to host one of the poignant Pages of the Sea events. The carving of the soldier’s image into the sand was a remarkable achievement.

“What a fitting tribute to all those soldiers who left these lands by sea over 100 years ago.”

He also spoke at the Armistice debate in

the House of Commons on Tuesday, November 6, saying: “The event centres around large-scale portraits of casualties, which are washed away by the sea, representing and reminding us of the millions of lives lost or changed forever by the war.”

During the debate the MP also praised Sefton’s unique World War One memorial project, Beyond the War Memorials (see story opposite) which explores the history of some of the thousands of men and women from the borough who lost their lives during the conflict.

Mr Esterson said: “In my constituency,

young people have absolutely engaged.

The schools have been engaged and have taken part thoroughly, encouraged and educated by Sefton Libraries and many volunteers throughout the constituency.

They are taking forward that knowledge and understanding of history for future generations.

“Tribute must be paid to all those who lost their lives in the Great War and also to those involved in this project which serves as a permanent reminder of their sacrifice.

It is projects such as these that will ensure they truly are never forgotten.”

Who was Captain Armitage?

Who was Captain John Armitage whose life was celebrated at Danny Boyle’s Pages of the Sea event on Sunday, November 11.

Captain Armitage (May 28 1876 to May 17, 1917) enlisted in January 1915, training recruits until October 1916, when the father-of-three was drafted into the 5th Battalion Cheshire Regiment at Condé-Folie near the Somme.

He arrived during the final engagements that compromised the battle of the Somme, which the regiment were involved in from July until the attacks ground to a halt in the autumn.

The next spring, his unit saw action during the German retreat to the Hindenburg Line and the battle of Arras, where John met his end from a ‘stray’ shell.

He is buried at Tilloy British Cemetery in France.

THOUSANDS of homes across the borough have been receiving special deliveries through letter boxes.

The poignant posts are part of Sefton Council’s ‘Beyond The War Memorials’ project which, in the run up to Remembrance Sunday, told the stories of the heroes and heroines of conflict who are listed on memorials across the borough.

Almost 2,000 households in Sefton have received ‘Last Post’ packs through their door, detailing the name and wartime heroics of the former occupant of their address.

It is hoped the campaign will inspire families to take up their own historical detective work and find out more about those who may have lived in their home and fought in conflict.

As part of the project, a dedicated website, created in conjunction with Southport webdesign team 67-70 Media, has also launched detailing Sefton's

11 Civic War Memorials and those names listed upon them.

Schoolchildren from across the borough have worked closely with Sefton artist Angie Thompson to create images for the Last Post packs, and 15 local volunteers have worked alongside professional researcher Kathryn Rogerson to uncover the stories.

Sefton schools who worked on the project include Woodlands Primary School in Formby and St John's Primary School in Crossens.

Cllr Trish Hardy, Sefton Council's cabinet member for communities and housing said: “This is one of the most detailed, emotive and thought-provoking project we have ever done and we are incredibly proud of the hard work which has gone into it.

“We want to highlight the brave men and women who gave their

lives during conflict for the freedom from oppression that we enjoy today, we also hope that residents will treasure their packs and hand them on to future generations.

“Beyond The War Memorials is a living digital biography for most, if not all, the heroic residents of Sefton, who are listed on our Civic War Memorials.

“So once people have received their Last Post packs through their doors, be sure to visit our Beyond the War Memorials website to contribute, learn and remember.”

Throughout the geographical area now known as Sefton, almost 4,000 men and women lost their lives during the Great War and their names are listed on one of 11 memorials throughout the borough. To find out more visit seftonwarmemorials.org

Family of baby boy who was born 10 weeks early raise £4,500 for neonatal unit Report by Danielle Thompson

Bertha and her brother Marmalade had a near-escape

Warning to dog owners after pets injured on railway line A VETERINARY nurse is warning dog owners not to let their dogs off lead anywhere near the railway lines after two English Setters narrowly escaped with their lives in a terrifying ordeal in Formby.

Harriet Hughes from Rufford Veterinary Group Ltd on Wennington Road in Southport said the two dogs were brought to her after they got stuck in the tracks on the Southport-Liverpool line and suffered burns from the electrified rail.

The dogs, Bertha and her brother, Marmalade, both three years old, were rushed in for treatment but luckily Bertha had sustained just nerve damage to her left foreleg while Marmalade injured his right foreleg with two claws pulled off and his skin ripped either by trying to pull it free or possibly being struck by a train. He also had head trauma

injuries, a spine dislocation and his tail had to be amputated.

Both dogs are now recovering from their ordeal but Harriet has spoken out to warn other owners to be extra careful if they are walking dogs near to railway lines, or live near to them.

She said: “Both Bertha and Marmalade were very lucky to have survived such a dangerous situation. They are now reunited at home with their family and are doing well.

“We are warning dog owners to be extremely careful with their pets near to railway lines as they won’t always be as lucky as these two were, this could very easily have had fatal consequences.

“It's easy to think that they are used to the trains but if they get spooked and run onto the lines it can very quickly have fatal consequences.”

THE family of a young Formby boy born 10 weeks early have raised more than £4,500 for the hospital ward where he received life saving treatment.

Emma and Lee Graham, from Formby, started fundraising for Ormskirk Hospital’s Neonatal Unit after their son Theo, was born almost three months prematurely weighing just 2lb 8oz in October 2012.

Theo, now a healthy five year old who attends Trinity St Peter’s Primary School was cared for by staff at the unit for those crucial first few weeks of his life when he was at his most vulnerable. Since then a grateful Emma and Lee have organised a number of fundraising events on behalf of the hospital, the most recent being a charity ball at the Gild Hall in Formby, raising an impressive £4,515 for the unit.

Emma said: “Thank you so much to everyone who came to the Charity Ball.

We raised £4,515 for Ormskirk Neonatal Unit which will go towards upgrading pieces of equipment vitally needed.”

“Theo opened the event himself. It is a cause very close to his heart after he was born 10 weeks premature weighing just 2lbs 8oz and spent 10 weeks on their fantastic Neonatal Unit. He is involved with all fundraising events and has been from a very early age. He sang in Spanish, explained why we fund-raise, and then the highlight was when Theo invited all the boys in the room to join him at the front to dance the ‘floss’ with him. Thank you to all the good sports who did!

“Guests were then entertained by 13 year old Amelia Poggenpoel from Formby High School. She spent a year in London

Emma Graham's team of helpers on the night

performing in Andrew Lloyd Webber's School of Rock, an extremely talented young lady, and we thank her very much for performing. Local band, Captains of Industry, played two sets for us during the night and had all the guests up dancing.

“There was a raffle and an auction with fantastic prizes on offer, thank you to local businesses for your donations and support, and well done to all our winners. Thank you to John and Julia Nelson for running the night so perfectly, The Lunch Hour for the catering, Parties For You, The Gild Hall, and our helpers on the evening.”

Their next fund-raising event will be John Nelson's Blind Wine Tasting Night at the Gild Hall on Friday, May 3.

Fundraiser for mum

Tricia with her three children, Zach, Alannah and Anyaliese

TICKETS are still available for a special event being held to raise urgent funds to buy a terminally-ill mum-of-three from Formby more precious time with her children.

Tricia Beaumont, aged 45, has three children aged nine, 10 and 12, Zach, Alannah and Anyaliese, who are pupils at Formby High School and at Our Lady of Compassion Primary School.

A Spanish teacher who trained at St Mary's in Crosby, Tricia was diagnosed with triple negative cancer for the third time three years ago, after twice successfully beating it and putting it into remission. Devastatingly, this time she was diagnosed with stage four cancer which is in her liver, chest and neck as well as spreading to her bones.

She has run out of options on the NHS but £8,000-a-week pioneering treatment abroad, in Germany, could help to extend her life. A Just Giving page set up by her friend Amanda Hurst to raise £8,000, has now reached £6,000 – so they only need the last £2,000 to send her for the first round of this potentially life-extending treatment.

In a bid to raise this as fast as they can, she has also set up a charity event, which will include a raffle and auction, at the Grand Hall on James Street in Liverpool on Saturday, November 17, which costs £15 entry and includes a buffet. To buy tickets, donate £15 on Just Giving and message the page creator Amanda Hurst with your name or email Manda.jayne1 @hotmail.com

YOUNG singers from schools across Sefton have come together to record a charity song just in time for Friday’s BBC Children In Need fundraiser.

Seven schools in the borough signed up for the fundraising project, along with other schools from the North West, and 300 pupils in total sang 'We Are All Stars' to help raise money for Children in Need The schools were Bedford Primary School, Freshfield Primary School, Formby High School, Redgate Primary School, Trinity St Peter’s Primary School, Valewood Primary School and Waterloo Primary School.

The song is intended to shine a spotlight on young people and celebrate their talents and learning gained through the world of education.

Pupils enjoyed the challenge and Children In Need mascot, Pudsey (pictured above) was a big fan of the song!

The idea began when the team behind the Educate Awards partnered with Formby High School’s senior assistant headteacher, Steve Cook and music technology teacher, Gary Heatherington, to write the song.

Schools were then notified about the opportunity and were encouraged to write in for a chance to take part.

After an intensive teacher training ses-

sion and a month of top secret rehearsals, over 300 students from primary and secondary schools in Chester, Lancashire and the Liverpool city region, recorded the single at Parr Street Studios.

Cameras also captured the once in a lifetime opportunity so that a music video detailing the process will accompany the track at a later date Kim O’Brien, founder of the Educate Awards, said: “There is an incredible amount of talent within primary and secondary schools today and what better way to showcase this than with a song dedicated to Children in Need.

“Everyone worked so hard to make this

unique song come to life and we’re thrilled with how it has turned out – they have really helped us put a spotlight on education in the North West.

“We’re looking forward to playing the music video at the Educate Awards ceremony on Friday, November 16 which is also when Children in Need takes place.”

The song is available to download on iTunes and Spotify. All proceeds will be donated to Children in Need.

The Educate Awards, in partnership with Copyrite Systems and Ricoh, is now in its seventh year and is the largest education awards in the North West, taking place at Liverpool Cathedral.

BIGGEST SELECTION

OF LARGE GLASS FRONTED GAS FIRES ON MERSEYSIDE

Pots of cash for road repairs DRIVERS and cyclists in Sefton will benefit from improved roads after the council was given £1.3million to be spent on repair work.

The Department for Transport is handing out a total of £53m to local authorities across the North West over the coming months and Sefton will be given a slice of the funding in the form of a £1,283,000 grant.

Roads Minister Jesse Norman said: “Potholes are a huge problem for all road users, and too

often we see issues occurring at the same place time after time. That is why the government is investing more in improving our roads than at any time before - £15 billion between 2015 and 2020 and a further £28.8 billion to 2025. Plus an immediate extra £420 million for potholes and local road maintenance just this year.

“The north west will be getting an extra £53 million this winter to keep its roads in good condition to keep drivers and cyclists safe.”

EXISTING patients of Southport and Ormskirk NHS Trust will continue to have use of the North West Regional Spinal Injuries Centre hydropool and sports hall following a review of an earlier decision to withdraw access.

Since it was announced earlier this year that access would be denied to former patients, the Champion has received numerous letters and calls from users of the facility.

More than 700 people signed a petition calling on the Trust to think again after it was announced the trust would close the pool to the general public at the end of November.

Jason Bedwell from Ainsdale, flagged up concerns, saying that

Chief Executive of Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust, Silas Nicholls

he doubted that he would ‘still be fit enough to continue to work and provide for my family’ without access to the pool.

He told the Champion: “As a wheelchair user I have tried attending various swimming pools over

the years but the cold water tends to cause me to tense up only increasing my pain further and making it impossible to exercise.”

He claimed that a facility such as the hydropool should be for the use of as many patients as possible’.

The about-turn on the original decision was confirmed by Silas Nicholls, trust chief executive, who said: “We recognise that ending use of these facilities as part of our review of the use of clinical space caused distress to some individuals.

“This was not our intention, for which I apologise. I want to thank everyone for their patience while the review took place.

“The trust is in the process of writing to users with our revised proposals.”

Police budget cuts make rising crime ‘inevitable’ claims MP

SEFTON Central MP Bill Esterson claimes cuts to the Merseyside Police budget will result in rising levels of crime.

The Shadow Business Minister has joined other Merseyside MPs in condemning the decision to ask Merseyside Police to pay £5m into the police pension scheme in 2019-20 and £7m a year later...c ash that will have to be found from the police budget.

Merseyside Police and Crime Commissioner Jane Kennedy has warned that the decision could mean Merseyside loses another 300 police officers, on top of the 1,600 police staff that have been cut since 2010.

Mr Esterson said: “Merseyside Police has lost 31 per cent of its funding from central government and now this bombshell that the force has to find £12m over the next two years to plug a gap in the pension scheme.

“This will inevitably result in further cuts in police officer numbers, and has been called

‘crippling’ by the Chief Constable Andy Cooke. The government should reverse this decision immediately or rising crime will be inevitable.”

The MP has put his name to an early day motion from Knowsley

MP George Howarth and also signed by fellow Merseyside MPs Maria Eagle, Angela Eagle and Alison McGovern. The Motion says that as a consequence of the Treasury ’s revaluation of the National Police Pension Scheme,

local police forces will be £165m worse off and 'in the case of Merseyside Police this will amount to an additional bill of £5m in 201920 and £7m in the following year, the equivalent of 300 police officer posts’.

New law will help renters A NEW law going through parliament which would give renters the right to take their landlord to court over shoddy conditions in rented homes, has been backed by MP Bill Esterson.

The Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Bill gives renters the right to take their landlord to court over unsafe and poor housing conditions. It has passed through the House of Commons and will go to the House of Lords before becoming law.

More than 140,000

homes in the North West – the equivalent of one in eight of all rented homes – are deemed to have ‘category one health and safety hazards’. A category one hazard is one which poses a serious and immediate risk to health and safety.

Mr Esterson said: “Every day in my constituency there are renters forced to live in poor and sometimes dangerous conditions, unable to tackle safety concerns or legally challenge their landlord. Many live in

fear of revenge evictions.

“Thanks to this private members bill we are one step closer to creating a minimum safety standard for rented homes. This Bill will help stamp out the actions of rogue landlords and protect renters.

“The bill means tenants will be able to take action against the landlord to make them put right any problems or hazards that make their dwelling unfit, and the tenant can seek compensation when the landlord hasn’t done so.”

Many locals were unhappy that they didn’t get to choose their own solicitor, instead going with a firm advised by the housing provider, and the consequences of a leasehold were never explained properly.

A recent national survey suggests almost six in ten leaseholders didn’t understand what being a leaseholder meant until they had already purchased the property, and more than nine in ten leaseholders regret buying a leasehold property.

In the House of Commons last week, Labour’s Shadow Housing Secretary, John Healey MP, challenged Government ministers to set up an inquiry.

He said: “Leaseholders find they’ve bought their home but still don’t own it, and many feel ripped off by unfair leasehold contracts. “This is a national scandal but the government’s action to date has been too weak, too slow and has overlooked the plight of existing leaseholders. “Ministers must act to back an inquiry into this systematic leasehold mis-selling, as with other misselling scandals like pensions, endowment mortgages and PPI.�

While Scotland has abolished leaseholds, there are more than four million people in England, with lease agreements.

AS

RENEWED calls have been made for the government to act on the sale of leasehold houses, with campaigners labelling it a ‘scam’ and a ‘rip-off ’.

Thousands of new homes across Merseyside, have been bought in recent years on leasehold terms rather than freehold.

The difference is that those who sign up for leasehold contracts feel “trapped� because they don't own the property and have to pay extortionate fees to buy the freehold rights.

They are then forced to pay escalating ‘ground rent’ as well as service charges to the property freeholder, described by some as a ‘faceless third party company ’.

The leasehold contracts also force locals to pay fees for permission to make basic alterations, such as changing the carpet or minor extension work.

The Champion has reported how a number of new-build housing estates built by housing firm Bellway have been sold as leaseholds in Formby and south Sefton.

Bootle MP Peter Dowd is one of a number of Labour party members across the region including West Lancashire MP Rosie Cooper and Southport Labour party hopeful, Liz Savage, who joined forces to call for changes to the leasehold system. Dowd said: “Hard working families are sick to death of being ripped off. “The government needs to get a grip of this before it destabilises the housing market.�

Calls made for hospice funding to be increased Report by Danielle Thompson

Queenscourt needs to find additional £250,000 to keep up with NHS pay award, says MP

CALLS are being made to increase funding for hospices - or they face being left unable to provide vital services, claims Sefton Central MP Bill Esterson.

Mr Esterson told MPs at a Westminster Hall debate, which was called to discuss the impact of a new NHS pay award on hospices, that Queenscourt, Hospice would be left with a £250,000 increase in wages to find unless the government steps in to increase its funding.

The hospice which serves Southport, Formby and West Lancs, already needs to raise approximately £3.5million every year to deliver services and its wages bill will be hiked up by the extra amount if a comparable pay increase is offered to Queenscourt staff.

He said in the debate: “Queenscourt Hospice serves my constituency, and the families and carers in my constituency, and like all hospices plays an incredibly important part in delivering NHS services.

But they can only play that full part if they are fully funded.

“They face a £250,000 increase in their wage bill in order to do just that and isn’t the point of this debate, and what the government is refusing to engage on so far, is Queenscourt Hospice that unless that money comes from central government, hospices including Queenscourt will not be able to continue over the next three years. This increase to provide the vital services they do now.” will only be funded for nurses working in Mr Esterson believes hospices such as the NHS, such as in hospitals, as opposed Queenscourt, Woodlands andonline St Joseph’s to those working outside of the NHS, such Read your Champion - www.champnews.com will struggle to meet the rising costs of as in hospices. Hospices, which employ employing nurses after NHS staff were nurses, would have to find the extra funds awarded a pay increase of at least 6.5% through other avenues if they are to match

the uplift, unless the Government steps in to increase funding.

Queenscourt receives less than 20% of its funding from local health commissioners. Hospices offer services far cheaper than acute hospitals can. They also arrange for patients to die at home if they choose to, saving the NHS money. Community care at the end of life costs £145 per day compared with £425 for a specialist palliative in-patient bed in a NHS hospital. Changing the setting of care for a patient at the end of life has the potential to reduce the daily cost of care by £280.

Between 355,000 and 457,000 patients need palliative care every year. If additional community services were developed to enable even 30,000 patients to reduce their hospital stay by just four days, there would be a potential saving of £34 million, claimed Mr Esterson.

He added: “More funding for hospices can actually save the NHS money. It makes sense for the government to invest in them.

“The pay award for NHS staff is obviously welcome but puts increased financial pressure on independent organisations like Queenscourt who compete with the NHS for staff and need to offer the same terms and conditions. Unlike NHS organisations they are not receiving any additional financial support from the government to cover the cost of meeting the pay award.

“Queenscourt provides a number of specialist support services to adults in Formby with advanced, progressive and incurable illness. Support is also offered to their families and carers and they provide education and support to other health care professionals.”

Prolific burglar jailed for five years

Carl Parkinson

A PROLIFIC burglar who targeted homes across Sefton has been jailed for five years.

Carl Parkinson broke-into houses in Crosby, Southport and Maghull between September and October this year.

Liverpool Crown Court heard on Tuesday, November 6 how the 34-year-old used trains to target homes near the railway line.

Some of the items he stole included a handbag from a

home in Birkdale and a Mercedes car from a house in Crosby.

Parkinson, of no fixed abode, was sent to prison for four burglary offences and other theft related incidents.

Detective Inspector Andy McCourt from the anti-burglary campaign Operation Castle said: “I hope this sentencing shows the public that we’ll continue to pursue prolific offenders and those

committing crime in our communities. We rely on information sharing and the vigilance of the public, our partners and local businesses in coming forward to help us investigate all crimes and bring offenders to justice.

“Burglaries leave victims feeling vulnerable and often alone.

However, we’ll keep working to put offenders behind bars and make our communities as safe as they can be.”

Owners of empty homes could face big hike in council tax OWNERS of empty homes in Sefton could soon be paying more council tax rates under a proposed change to increase payments from 50% to 100%.

New legislation will give Sefton Council additional powers to increase the council tax premium charged to properties that have been empty and largely unfurnished for more than two years from 50% to 100% with effect from April 1, 2019.

Sefton Council is in the process of running a consultation on the proposed changes and want feedback on the plans.

There are about 645 homes in Sefton that have been empty for two years or more, excluding those that are exempt from council tax, for example where the

Report by Tom Martin owner has gone to live elsewhere to receive care, or provide care to someone else.

The proposed increase in the empty homes premium is intended to encourage owners of long term empty domestic properties to bring them back into use and to increase the amount of council tax income raised from those that continue to leave their properties empty.

Cllr Paulette Lappin, Sefton Council's Cabinet Member Regulation and Compli-

Implant Evening Thursday 22nd November 2018 FREE CONSULTATION WORTH £150

ance, said: “We are currently seeking views on the proposed changes to the premium charged in Sefton from April 1, 2019, as well as other potential changes to the premium that could be made in the future. Please take the time to give us your views and get in touch.

“As well as charging the empty homes premium, there are other council initiatives to help bring empty homes back into use like the property accreditation scheme that also helps empty owners find tenants for their property."

The consultation is open until December 3. For more information and to share your views please visit the website: www.sefton.gov.uk/council-tax/counciltax-empty-homes-consultation.aspx

MP should be demanding GPs must play their part in reducing use of antibiotics that Northern Rail is returned to public control I have just returned to Southport after an afternoon and early evening seminar in Manchester and for the third week in a row suffered a dreadful experience at the hands of Northern Rail.

Once more the supposed connection to Salford Crescent (that replaced our direct service in May) got delayed behind a freight train - only this time the connecting Victoria train skipped Crescent altogether leaving passengers waiting for an hour in November on the bleakest of Manchester stations, which lacks even a waiting shelter.

Last week we had an emergency timetable on the line which Northern Rail failed to display on Southport station in any form and also failed to produce any printed timetables for a revised service which was running just hourly at very different times from the usual timetable.

I was told by the station staff that they were only informed about the emergency timetable

by Northern for planned work by Network Rail one hour before it started.

The week before, my wife and I were abandoned on Wallgate Station, Wigan at past midnight when Northern Rail cancelled the last train due to the non-availability of a driver. We were only very reluctantly provided with a taxi after waiting an hour. Two days later the same train was cancelled because there was no guard (I thought Northern con-

siders guards unnecessary?)

Cancelling the last train is especially dangerous as even if a replacement bus is provided, it inevitably runs very much later and the drivers do not check the unmanned stations for passengers - who as winter advances may be put at serious risk of hypothermia.

There are serious questions to be asked of the Transport Secretary over the competence of Northern Rail to run our service, but our MP seems unwilling to ask them. Instead we see pictures of him cosying up to Mr Grayling, but no action. We also see him strutting about in a cadet’s uniform which cuts no mustard with constituents who are denied the basic entitlement to get home from their regional metropolis – and I can’t imagine these pictures impress our noble veterans, some of whom have experienced the real horrors that wearing the uniform has brought to them.

Where are you, Mr Moore, the silence is deafening - if Northern Rail cannot provide a safe and reliable service for your constituents, then you should be demanding in Parliament that our service is returned to public control or to local municipal direction, as is the case with Merseyrail which manages to provide us with a reliable service to and from Liverpool.

Dr Jim Ford Southport

Whilst accepting completely that we must reduce the unnecessary use of antibiotics, the Champion article (‘Residents Urged To Play Their Part...) misses one vital point.

It is the GP who gives out pre-

scriptions, without which patients are unable to get antibiotics.

Surely it is the GP’s job to be firm about what they can and can’t prescribe and not write out a prescription just to get the

Bullying is not inevitable IT’S good to see the spotlight shine on bullying during AntiBullying Week each year, but it can be overwhelming if all we are faced with are hard hitting statistics and desperately sad stories.

Bullying is frightening - it can have serious long term consequences, but there is a message of hope. Since the 1980s Kidscape have transformed the lives of children and families through our

free ZAP workshops that teach practical skills to stand up to bullying behaviour, and our advice line for parents and carers. We have also trained tens of thousands of teachers to recognise bullying and take decisive action to stop it.

Bullying is not inevitable. Help is at hand.

Appeal for used postal stamps

for services to be restored on this line Manchester Piccadilly is a major station and is essential to many.

I am appealing to Champion readers for used postage stamps which help me raise funds which I then donate to the Guide Dogs for the Blind.

Recycling used postage stamps is such an easy way to raise money for the charity and I am always in need of all types of postage stamps, including British, Foreign and Christmas stamps.

If you are able to help I would be grateful if you could cut the stamps from their envelopes (leaving approx 1cm margin around the stamp) and send them to the address below.

Speed is not the only cause of accidents With regard to your report on the speed cameras on the A565 road going out of Southport towards Tarleton.

Perhaps J Graham, Tarleton (Champion Letters October 21) has forgotten that speed is only one cause of accidents although, according to statistics, the major one.

Speed cameras cannot, regrettably, eliminate other factors, for instance driver error or weather.

I frequently cycle along the cycleway along the A565 and know that junction with Moss Hey Lane well.

One evening travelling in the direction of Southport from Tarleton, the sun was extremely low approaching sun set. I couldn't see ahead on the cycle track so I stopped until I could see.

I expect motorists were similarly

effected, yet they continued without any noticeable adjustment of their speed, tailgating each other in the hope the driver

ahead could see.

Miraculously there was no incident on this occasion.

M Biggs, Southport Cycling Club

Old enough to be named and shamed I read a report in the Champion about three teenagers (a 14 year old, and two 16 year olds) due to stand trial for a string of burglaries - however, because of their age, they are considered to be children and cannot be named.

Contrast that with the brave and heroic behaviour of those who lied about their young age, so that they could enlist in the

armed forces, fight and even die for their started to behave like it instead of carrying on in such a way that would make their country in The Great War. As far as I am concerned, if they are old ancestors weep.

RS, enough to commit the crime, they are old Southport enough to be named and shamed.

We hear so much these days about young people being the future. Well, it’s about time they

PICTURE of the week Soggy sand from last Sunday morning’s sudden downpour made the perfect canvas for would-be sand artists to add their own images to the ‘Pages of the Sea’ installation on Formby beach. Picture Martyn Snape.

War memorial looks drab... and uncared for

At this time of remembrance may I take the opportunity to express some thoughts about an issue which has concerned me for some time.

The foliage around the renovated War Memorial on Ainsdale’s Village Green has, for some years, looked drab and uncared for.

When walking around it, the weeds and unkempt shrubs are in complete contrast to the stunning floral troughs on Station Road, Ainsdale. Don’t our fallen heroes deserve the same floral tributes?

Whilst formal flower beds such as the striking floral displays around Lytham’s War Memorial may not be to everyone’s liking, and perhaps it is the intention for Ainsdale’s to look more informal, surely the lovely memorial stone deserves more colour, care and attention.

Perhaps if Ainsdale’s War Memorial was more eyecatching, we would be drawn to it more often to remember our local fallen heroes.

Maybe Sefton Council would consider passing the care of this area to our wonderful Ainsdale In Bloom team whom I am sure would ensure that it looks colourful all year around.

Clampdown on taxi drivers who flout law

POLICE have put the brakes on ‘unsafe’ taxi drivers after they suspended and, in some cases, arrested unfit drivers.

Between May and the start of November, officers arrested 40 taxi drivers from across Merseyside for drug and drink driving offences, 450 fines were issued to drivers who illegally parked in taxi ranks, 192 suspensions were issued and 586 taxi defect notices were handed out for dangerous vehicles.

Roads Policing Sergeant Martin Mayne said: “Those drivers who put the safety of passengers, pedestrians and other road users at serious risk by drinking or taking drugs before getting behind the wheel will not be tolerated by Merseyside Police or licencing officers.

“Our roadside stop checks and other

Report by Danielle Thompson enforcement activity will continue, and our hope is that all drivers join the majority of their colleagues and do the right thing.

“If you do not get your vehicle checked and any necessary repairs made, you run the risk of your vehicle being taken off the road.

“Neither the police or the council are seeking to deprive people of their livelihoods for the sake of it, but the safety of the public is - as always - our absolute priority and we will not hesitate to take action if we believe drivers are putting that at risk.

“Most people drive responsibly and are aware of the serious consequences being under the influence of drink or drugs can have on their ability to safely navigate the roads.

“It is disappointing that there has been a recent increase in taxi drivers/private hire drivers being found to be driving whilst under the influence of drugs.

“While those caught using drugs still represent a small minority of drivers, I cannot stress enough the dangers that this presents.”

He added: “With further enforcement, we’ll continue to educate all drivers around the risks they’re taking by driving impaired, again ensuring that our roads are as safe as possible for the vast majority of law-abiding road users.”

Police force displays poppies on vehicles MERSEYSIDE Police did their bit to remember fallen war heroes by displaying force cars, vans and bikes with a poppy.

The new-look vehicles were showcased last week by officers, along with soldiers from the Duke of Lancaster Regiment and veterans Eddie McMahon and Stan Costeloe.

Sergeant Paul Allen said: “The display of poppies on our vehicles is an effort to honour the contribution, hard work and sacrifice of not only police of the past but members of the public too.

“This has been done working hand in hand with the community and the Royal British Legion.”

LIVING WELL SEFTON IS HERE TO HELP YOU HELP YOURSELF This is Self Care Week where the spotlight is on self care for life and that is where Living Well Sefton, the local wellbeing organisation, can help. Its partners have a range of activities, as well as Living Well Mentors to support people on a one-to-one basis to make healthy lifestyle choices. Here is a selection of what is on offer.

May Logan Centre, Bootle The Roots project (pictured) is a great way to meet new people, build some physical activity into your life and learn how to grow your own fruit and vegetables. One participant said she has made new friends. “It has benefited me in a lot of ways because it gets me out in the open,” she explained. Taking part has encouraged her to do more exercise, eat more fresh food and motivated her to join other weekly activities at the May Logan Centre such as the walking and the ‘Knit & Natter’ groups.

Brighter Living Partnership, Southport Based in Southport Community Centre on Norwood Road, the Brighter Living Partnership has a weekly programme of activities including healthy cookery courses (pictured), social groups, lunch and film clubs. One of the people who went on the Brighter Mondays course said: “Since coming to the group I have felt a lot better in myself. These people really make a difference and I will definitely keep in touch with them. We came here as strangers and leave as friends.”

Feelgood Factory, Netherton Choose from the Stress Clinic, men’s walking group, various mental health groups and a bereavement group.

These activities have supported people through difficult times and given them

confidence to look at life in a more positive way.

Mr G was referred to one of the Living Well mentors based in the Feelgood Factory by his GP to help alleviate the pain associated with a bad back. “During the lifestyle assessment we felt Mr G’s main priority was his mental wellbeing and his diet. He attended Pilates for his back which reduced his pain and we also set a goal to eat a more balanced diet with less salt and sugar,” explains Philomena Zilinski, Healthy Living Services Manager, who added that Mr G has felt much better after losing weight and enjoyed being a part of the group.

Living Well Sefton mentors The Living Well mentors are based in all the partners and have helped many local residents to improve their lives, such as Mrs M, who had severe medical conditions making it difficult to get around and clean her home. This made her anxious as she didn’t like to ask friends or neighbours to help and had no money to pay for a cleaner.

Her GP referred her to Living Well Sefton and, through a chat with the mentor it was discovered that Mrs M wasn’t claiming benefits she was entitled to. Now, after receiving the higher rate, Mrs M can pay a cleaner to help around the house, do the washing and prepare light meals. Mrs M said: “I didn’t believe I would qualify for the benefit and had to be encouraged to apply. I am so pleased I did as the quality of my life has improved so much. I feel that a burden has been lifted from me.”

Living Well Sefton also has a selection of funding opportunities which support local communities and staff to keep well.

The fifth round of the Community Resilience Grant is open with grants of up to £2,000 for organisations and £500 to individuals, who are supported by a organisational partner. The deadline for applications is Friday, November 30. To apply visit: www.livingwellsefton. org.uk Paper versions of the application form can also be downloaded from the website.

Call the team on 0300 323 0181 or email LWS@seftoncvs.org.uk for further details.

The £500 Workplace Wellbeing grant is for small to mediumsized organisations to go towards helping improve staff wellbeing by covering sessional work such as: yoga; volunteer costs; equipment such as bike racks to encourage active travel to work; training courses with a wellbeing focus and events to support the wellbeing of staff.

Parents urged to get flu vaccination for children to help protect them against winter illnesses SEFTON parents who have young children are being urged to get a free flu vaccination for better protection against illnesses this winter.

Health workers across Merseyside have backed the NHS campaign to encourage parents to protect their two to three year olds from the flu

and to take up the offer of the free vaccination at their GP practice.

Young children who get the flu have the same symptoms as adults; some can develop a very high fever or other complications such as bronchitis or pneumonia, which may need hospital treatment.

NHS Director of Nursing, Hazel Richards said: “Flu can be horrible for children, it can lead to serious health problems and they can also spread it around the whole family.

“The flu vaccine protects children, from serious complications that could develop if they were to get the

For children, the flu vaccine is not an injection, just a quick nasal spray from a GP or practice nurse if they are aged two to three years old.

School children from reception class through to year 5 will get their nasal spray vaccination through their school.

“You will also be preventing the further spread of the flu virus to other relatives and friends who may be vulnerable, such as grandparents.”

Report by Danielle Thompson RESIDENTS are being urged to ask their pharmacist about the range of services available in local chemists in a bid to relieve the pressure on GP practices.

NHS Southport and Formby Clinical Commissioning Group and NHS South Sefton CCG are using the recent ‘Ask Your Pharmacist Week’ initiative to highlight the support that is available from chemists and also make people aware of medicine safety.

Health chiefs in the borough say that often, people make unnecessary trips to the GP or even A&E, when their neighbourhood chemist could help instead. In recent years, pharmacists have expanded their role, and now provide a wide range of clinical and public health services, within easy reach of the people who need them most.

Graeme Batten, pharmacist and chairman of the Local Pharmaceutical Committee in Sefton, said: “We offer expert advice and support on a range of topics without an appointment; we can offer advice on the correct and safe use of medicines and devices as well as healthy living advice such as looking after yourself in the winter months. Many pharmacies also offer blood pressure checks and other services such as stopping smoking and providing emergency hormonal contraception.

“We specifically help patients manage their medicines with a medicine use review consultation and support with new medicines in a private consultation room. This gives us the opportunity to discuss

Graeme Batten, pharmacist and chairman of the Local Pharmaceutical Committee in Sefton

how to use medicines safely and the side effects and benefits of your medicines with you. My advice during ‘the recent Ask Your Pharmacist Week’ and all year round, would be to pop in to your local chemist and have a chat about how they can help you.”

Another way to make the most of your local chemist is by signing up to NHS South Sefton CCG and NHS Southport and Formby CCG’s Care at the Chemist scheme, which is aimed at more vulnerable residents who do not normally pay for their prescriptions. Care at the Chemist is available at a number of pharmacies across the borough and provides expert advice and medications for a wide range of conditions, without the need for a doctor’s appointment.

Children need to know the consequences of their actions LIKE everyone else I am horrified by the increase in knife crime and there is no easy answer to the problem.

It seems to me one factor that has been overlooked, perhaps because changing values in our society make it seem simply out of date, is the fact that since the days of my childhood and teenage years, young people (it now seems to have been extended to anyone under 30) have entered a society which seemingly purposefully gives them the idea that they can do almost exactly what they like without experiencing much come-back.

Yes, I know that what I am about to suggest will be deeply unpopular with many ‘modern’ parents, children and political pundits, but it seems to me that youngsters these days have no conception that actions have consequences for themselves that are not always pleasant.

But as a child I felt the relatively minor pain on my backside of my dad’s hand - and the odd clip over the ear hole too if I transgressed.

And at school my punishments ranged from ‘lines’ to detention (which in those days didn’t need my parents’ permission), a ruler across my hand or a slipper applied to my sore posterior.

I was never caned - and that was because I had learned from earlier, ‘softer ’ punishments that breaking school rules resulted in rather unpleasant consequences, and I had the sense never to push things that little bit too far.

Out of school the local bobby

was also known on occasion to punish minor indiscretions with a swift swipe at one’s ear.

And do you know what the result of all this ‘violence’ was?

It was NOT that I grew up to hate my dad, or the teachers, or the police - and neither did I become a bully myself as psychologists would have us believe.

What it did was not necessarily to prevent me ever from being naughty, but to make me consider more carefully the results of my actions, and indeed their effect on others.

As a matter of fact, my dad became my best friend once I had reached full adulthood - which, incidentally, was long before I reached the grand old age of 30!

And I also grew to respect authority and to consider why one should obey (in general) rules and laws.

With regard to knife crime, the police have severely curtailed ‘stop and search’ operations which I would have thought could make a real difference to the number of knives on the street particularly if there was a genuinely severe punishment attached.

And since, apparently, a number of knifings occur on the way home

from school, would it really be such an infringement on ‘personal liberty ’ to carry out some spot checks for the carrying of knives to be made at the school gate?

I know I would rather have a child of mine arrive home annoyed because he or she had been frisked than for my son or daughter never arriving home again at all.

Perhaps the most controversial of all is the attitude of parents.

I have even heard stories of mothers asking if their child had remembered to take his knife as he went out!

Now I doubt if many parents would do such a thing - but again, how many make sure that said child is NOT going out armed?

But too often all we hear are ‘reasons’ such as cuts in police numbers, children’s services, youth centres etc.

All of which are important.

But at the end of the day, surely the best way to ensure our young people are not going out tooled up for a knife fight is to teach them from a very early age what is right and what is wrong - and too that for any crime there are personal consequences that WILL be applied.

Dad to run equivalent of 43 marathons in only 12 months after meeting inspirational youngster

Southport Hospital set to host nurse recruitment day A NURSING recruitment day is set to take place at Southport Hospital later this month.

Interested visitors can drop in any time between 11am and 3pm on Saturday, November 24.

The Trust is hiring registered nurses, operating department practioners and health care assistants - with special focus on theatre staff - for both Ormskirk and Southport hospitals. Team members will be on hand to talk to can-

didates about roles in the dedicated spinal injuries centre and critical care unit, both located at Southport hospital.

Practice educators will talk to candidates about career pathways, training and development. The Trust is also welcoming previously registered nurses and previous applicants.

For an informal chat, call Carol Fowler on 01704 704965 or email carol.fowler@nhs.net.

Report by Danielle Thompson A SOUTHPORT dad will run at least 5k a day for the next year to raise thousands of pounds for muscular dystrophy after meeting an inspirational youngster who has the condition.

Andy Brown, 45, who works for the Environment Agency, has worked out by the end of the 12 month challenge he will have run 43 marathons!

The idea originated after he met Bertie Kay, a Churchtown youngster the same age as two of his three children.

Bertie was diagnosed with the progressive muscle-wasting condition aged just two.

It attacks his strength and mobility as well as his ability to breathe.

Because the structure of Bertie’s muscle cells are weak, this means his muscle tissue doesn’t repair or regenerate very effectively, meaning his muscles become weaker and weaker over time.

Andy is no stranger to running a large distance having already taken part in the London Marathon earlier this year where he raised more than £3,000 for Muscular Dystrophy.

He will be running at least 5k a day for the next year, starting on the anniversary

Andy Brown with his inspiration, Bertie Kay

of Bertie's diagnosis – which means that overall, he will run the equivalent of at least 43 marathons!

He has a fundraising target of £3,000 but hopes to raise more and has set up a page on online sponsorship site Just Giving (search for Red4bertie).

He said: “The anniversary of Bertie's official diagnosis is on November 18 and hearing how this day felt to Bertie and his family, I felt this was a very appropriate day to start my challenge.

“I have now realised that means I will need to run at least 1,134 miles - which is

the equivalent of over 43 marathons! It sounds quite daunting when I think of it like that but I am determined to do this to help raise funds for research into Bertie’s condition.”

Charles Horton from Muscular Dystrophy UK added: “We are really grateful to Andy for taking on such a tough challenge in the coming year to help children like Bertie affected by Ullrich muscular dystrophy. I look forward to watching Andy ’s progress over the coming year and wish him every success with his challenge.”

SOUTHPORT Orchestra is planning to give music lovers an opportunity to enjoy a relaxing evening of fine music when it presents its final concert of the year at Emmanuel Parish Church, Cambridge Road, Southport PR9 9PR. The concert is due to take place on Saturday, November 24, starting at 7.30 pm and the orchestra is once again expecting a large audience to fill this magnificent church.

For this concert the orchestra’s resident conductor, Jeff Rimmer, has chosen to feature three Russian composers, Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov (The Tsar’s Bride Overture), Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (Violin Concerto in D Major) and lesser known Vasily Kalinnikov (Symphony No. 1 in G Minor).

The overture will be familiar to many in the audience and well known guest violinist Andrew Winter will feature the violin concerto.

The four movements of Kalinnikov’s symphony is beautifully written and full of surprises and is expected to make the second half of the programme a real show stopper.

Tickets can be obtained from Southport Christian Book Centre, Wesley Street, Southport (Tel. 01704 542226) or by emailing southportorchestratickets@gmail.com. There will also be a limited number of tickets available at the door on the night of the concert.

More information can be obtained on the orchestra’s website: southportorchestra.co.uk.

I’VE JUST got back from three days of exploring the national classic car show – where one question seemed to be asked more than any other. What’s it like driving a Reliant Robin?

Regular readers might remember earlier this year I snapped one up for £600 - and promptly discovered that virtually all of it was broken. It’s taken several months of frustrating repairs to get the little threewheeler up and running again, but now that it’s through the MOT, I can finally reveal the answer.

Or rather, I was about to, but then the radiator decided to drop all of its coolant across a busy dual carriageway, prompting a tail-between-the-legs phone call to the fourth emergency service and a lengthy roadside repair.

Then it needed a boxful of bits and a morning with a timing gun because it was richer than Donald Trump and coughing like Theresa May at a political party conference. So you probably get already that the Reliant Robin is a proper classic car – the sort that people enjoy tinkering with on a Sunday morning.

Or in a layby at rush hour.

But then I – by which I mean the talented folk at the Reliant Owners’ Club – finally got my £600 three-wheeler to behave like a car and I could finally go for a proper drive.

I’m now happy to report that it’s addictively good fun to buzz around in.

Anyone who’s seen a certain episode of Top Gear would be forgiven for thinking that every corner is a rollover-in-waiting but it just isn’t true.

A Robin that’s set up properly will happily flick through roundabouts or through even quite tight bends perfectly happy and is really only going to throw you into a hedge if you really muck about it.

In fact, the bigger problem is Britain’s proliferation of potholes.

You end up hitting them a third more of them than you would in a normal car, and if it’s the front wheel that hits one, then the ride’s particularly unpleasant. So you end up driving it constantly thinking about where the middle of the car is, which is strangely rewarding because it encourages you to really think about your driving to get the best out of it.

But it’s worth it because the steering – which only has the one wheel to control, of course – is light and nimble, the gearchange is wonderfully direct and the engine loves to rev. In fact, it’ll comfortably overtake things on a motorway at seventy, even if the 850cc lump next to your left knee is doing about a million RPM. It might be noisy and have a habit of breaking down, but it’s a car that’s overflowing with character.

Which makes it more than alright in my book.

Second round tie could be a ‘Merseyside derby ’ match

SOUTHPORT will travel to either Tranmere Rovers or Oxford City in the FA Cup second round with the tie which is due to be played over the weekend of Saturday, December 1.

If Tranmere win the replay it is likely that the match would be televised live given that the Wirral side are currently fourth in League Two and the match would be a ‘Merseyside derby’ pitting one of the highest ranked teams at this stage of the competition against Port who are the lowest ranked team remaining in the cup.

Tranmere would first have to beat Oxford City away in the replay next Tuesday, November 20, having drawn 3-3 last Sunday, with Kabongo Tshimanga scoring a stunning hat-trick for the National League South side.

Port will host Chester in the third qualifying round of the Buildbase FA Trophy on Saturday, November 24.

Superb FA Cup victory shows team’s potential Report by Jonathan O’Byrne Southport 2 Boreham Wood 0

Jordan Archer made his debut for Southport in Saturday’s FA Cup tie.

Archer is added to strikeforce STRIKER Jordan Archer has joined Southport on loan from League Two side Bury until January 2019.

The 24 year-old signed for Bury in July 2018 on a two-year deal but has spent the first two months of the 2018/19 season on loan at National League side Maidenhead United.

Port manager Liam Watson said: “In a bid to help Jordan’s development as a full-time footballer, both clubs recognised that this move would benefit each other and give him the platform to showcase his talent.

“He’s a powerful striker and someone we’ve known for a while would strengthen our team.

“I’d like to thank everyone at Bury for their hard work in allowing him to come here and hopefully the fans are excited to see him in action!”

SOUTHPORT capped off a fine seven days by progressing to the second round of the FA Cup against higher level opposition Boreham Wood in front of a crowd of 1,460.

Port started the brighter side with Jason Gilchrist heading just over from Bradley Bauress' cross after two minutes.

Dion Charles had the chance to open the scoring on 18 minutes but he dragged his effort wide.

Southport deservedly took the lead on the half hour mark when a well worked corner from Jack Sampson was headed home by player-coach Dean Winnard.

Gilchrist nearly extended the lead on the stroke of half-time, flashing a strike wide from 25 yards.

Souhport continued to dominate after the break and Brad Bauress was inches away from scoring with a low drive on 50 minutes.

Boreham Wood’s closest chance fell to Gozie Ugwu but his curling effort drifted wide on 56 minutes.

The Yellows double their lead in the 70th minute when a Bauress corner was nodded in at the back post by a rejuvenated Jason Gilchrist, for his second goal in a week.

Southport comfortably controlled the match, keeping another clean sheet to follow last Tuesday night’s 6-0 drubbing of Clitheroe in the Lancashire Cup. Port manager Liam Watson was quick to praise the teams efforts as a whole.

Following Tuesday night’s match against Hereford, Southport will travel to Boston United on Saturday.
