Jimmy Matthews and Alan Lewis of Skelmersdale Veterans’ Association at their stand in Asda.

Veterans team up for Poppy Appeal MEMBERS of Skelmersdale Veterans’ Association and Skelmersdale Ex Servicemen’s Association are teaming up for the forthcoming Poppy Appeal.

They are receiving 15 self-assembly poppy boxes, which are new for this year, and are asking if anyone would like a box for their school or office. Anyone interested should contact Alan Lewis on 07939 660048.

The veterans will be collecting at the Concourse shopping centre and Asda from this Friday, (October 25).

Chairman of the Skelmersdale Veterans’ Association, Alan Lewis, said: “As a town, Skelmersdale has strong links to the military. We are very proud of our military history, with Lancashire being one of the highest recruitment areas for the armed forces for all three services.

COUNCIL MAKES MOVE TO DRIVE TOWN CENTRE VISION FORWARD Report by Henry James WEST Lancashire Borough Council has promised to ‘take all necessary steps’ to drive forward development plans for a new Skelmersdale Town Centre.

A new centre has been a ‘vision’ for years but plans to reinvent the town as a place fit for the future have failed to make it beyond anything other than a pipedream for residents.

However, in a significant step forward last Wednesday, the council voted through recommendations to drive forward with the physical delivery of the regeneration.

At a meeting of the Full Council, borough councillors voted to delegate authority to the Director of Development and Regeneration ‘to take all necessary steps to enable a Phase 1 scheme to pro-

‘I look forward to seeing the building work underway in the coming months and delivering these projects that we as a town deserve and is long overdue...’

Council Leader Ian Moran ceed.’ This vote comes on the back of the council securing £2 million in funding from the Lancashire Enterprise Fund which will be spent solely on the Skelmersdale Town Centre project.

MP abstains on ‘Letwin amendment’ but says she still wants to honour Leave vote

Christine loves her role caring for Stanley: “Hearing all about Stanley’s stories and everything he’s learnt over the years reminds me that this is as much for him as it is for me.”

WEST Lancs MP Rosie Cooper has defended her actions in Parliament after she abstained from voting on the ‘Letwin Amendment’ to the Prime Minister’s renegotiated Brexit deal.

The amendment, voted for last Saturday, was proposed by MP Oliver Letwin and called for Parliament to withhold approval of the new deal Boris Johnson had agreed with the EU until legislation which would implement the UK’s withdrawal was passed.

As the Prime Minister was

bound by the Benn Act to ask the EU for a delay to leaving the EU -beyond the current deadline of October 31 - if a deal had not been passed by 11pm on Saturday night, the motion meant that the UK would avoid inadvertently leaving without a deal should the withdrawal legislation subsequently fail to be implemented.

The motion passed by 322 to 306. Rosie Cooper was one of 21 MPs and eight Labour MPs who didn’t vote.

Ms Cooper told the Cham-

pion she wants to honour the Leave vote made by West Lancs as well as prevent a nodeal Brexit.

“I believe in respecting the 2016 referendum decision as we committed to in the 2017 Labour Party Manifesto on which I was elected.

“What I believe in is honouring my commitment to the majority of West Lancashire residents who voted to leave the EU. What I believe in is protecting the UK from a nodeal Brexit, which I did by voting for the Benn Act.”

Come and see ‘democracy ’ in action, says Rosie Cooper Report by Kenny Parker MP ROSIE Cooper wants people in West Lancashire to get involved in UK Parliament Week and ‘have their say’ on the issues that matter to them most.

Now in its ninth year, UK Parliament Week is a week-long UK-wide event which starts on Saturday, November 2. It aims to engage people, especially young people, from different backgrounds and communities, with the UK Parliament and empower them to get involved.

The MP says it’s a ‘great opportunity to be part of ‘a thriving democracy’, ask questions, think critically and engage with the UK Parliament’.

Schools, museums, libraries, faith communities and youth organisations representing every constituency across the United Kingdom have already signed up to be part of the conversation, she says.

Last year, as part of UK Parliament Week, the MP was invited to the 45th Ormskirk Scouts, based at Burscough Methodist Church, Orrell Lane, where she took part in a question-and-answer session with the scouts.

Cooper said: “As Member of Parliament I welcome the involvement of people in West Lancashire during UK Parliament Week 2019. I am determined to

ensure that our voters and citizens of tomorrow understand how vital their participation is in our democracy, and I’m excited to see so many schools, uniform organisations and local groups taking part.

“I was pleased to visit the 45th Ormskirk Scouts in Burscough last year receiving my first scout badge, and I am engaging with many schools including a visit during Parliament Week itself so young people can discuss with me directly the matters which affect them.”

In 2018, UK Parliament Week reached almost 1 million people, with more than 8,100 activities.

This year’s UK Parliament Week festival is expected to be the largest ever with more activities and people taking part.

David Clark, Head of Education and Engagement at UK Parliament, said:“There are many exciting activities taking place for this year’s UK Parliament Week, including those happening in West Lancashire.

“Schools, workplaces and community groups across West Lancashire have a chance to have their say on the issues they care about most. UK Parliament Week is a great way to find out more about the ways to be part of our thriving democracy, be it to vote, campaign or question their MP.” Those who sign up for UK Parliament Week will be sent a free kit packed with resources and an activity booklet tailored for different organisation types.

‘Go4it’ at fire station!

YOUNG people can play Pulsar Laser Quest and enjoy other games at the free Go4it sessions at Skelmersdale Fire Station on Sunday, November 3 and Monday, November 4 between 5pm and 8pm.

Heidi McDougall, West Lancashire Community Safety Partnership chairperson, said: “If you are a young person then you are welcome to come and enjoy the free Go4it events. You will have a lot of fun playing with all the great activities we have to offer.”

Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service organises Go4it activities on behalf of West Lancashire Community Safety Partnership as part of the annual Bright Sparx Campaign which aims to reduce anti-social behaviour around this time of year. The events, which are funded by the partnership, help reduce the risk of people being hurt in fire related incidents by providing a safe environment for local young people to have fun.

In addition to the Go4it events, Lancashire Children and Family Wellbeing Service is organising a Neighbourhood Community Day at Eavesdale Neighbourhood Centre on Saturday, November 2 at 1pm, where families can have fun together and learn about staying safe on Bonfire Night. Families can also seek advice from organisations such as West Lancashire Borough Council, Lancashire County Council, Lancashire Police and Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service.

Veterans poppy appeal From page 1

“Skelmersdale Veterans’ Association will have a number of veterans attending the collections.

“The relationship between the community and members of the public has never been stronger.

We are grateful for their support.

“The aim of the Poppy Appeal is to remember those who lost their lives on active service in all conflicts - from the beginning of the First World War right up to the present day.”

The veterans run visits to different organisations such as schools and care homes. Anyone who is interested in receiving a visit can contact Alan Lewis on the number above.

Skelmersdale Veterans’ Association are also working in partnership with Skelmersdale Action For Youth and St Paul’s Church on a ‘Silent Soldiers’ display.

They will be at St Paul’s Church in the run-up to Remembrance and people can see them there from Suunday, October 27 until Monday, November 11. They will then be at St Richard’s Church from November 11 to Sunday, November 17.

Investigations continue into shooting of men in Belfield Report by Henry James THREE men who were shot at an address in Skelmersdale last week were put under police guard in hospital.

Detectives launched an appeal after the shocking incident took place at around 1.30pm on Tuesday, October 15, at an address on Belfield.

It is believed two of the men shot are a father and his son. Police attended and found all three men, aged 46, 45 and 21, injured. One of the victims had suffered an injury to his chest and arm, one had suffered an injury to his back and one had suffered an injury to his wrist.

It is believed the youngest victim was shot in the back and was helped by a resident who held a tea towel to his back where the wound was. He is reported to have shouted: “I’m going to die.”

All three were taken to hospital, where they were said to be in a stable condition.

It is believed a lone male, dressed in dark clothing and wearing a face covering, entered the house and fired the shots before making off.

and bring in an operator of last resort. I stand ready to work with him on this.”

Mayor Burnham is also behind calls along with, Sheffield City Region Mayor Dan Jarvis and Leeds City Council leader Judith Blake asking for lower fares for passengers still having to use Pacer trains.

Northern had planned to withdraw them all by the end of this year, including ones on the Southport to Manchester line which runs through parts of West Lancashire.

In a letter to Northern, Mr Burnham, Mr Jarvis and Ms Blake said it was ‘unacceptable’ that Northern would still be running services using Pacers into 2020.

“As we are forced into accepting the temporary retention of Pacers, we expect you to commit, as a matter of urgency, to appropriate financial compensation to the passengers affected.”

They said fares should be reduced on all affected routes while the trains were being used. l Meanwhile passengers are being reminded about a major signalling upgrade which will see the closure of Liverpool Lime Street and Edge Hill stations on the weekend of November 2 – 3. Passengers can still get to and from central Liverpool using rail replacement buses or by using the Merseyrail network via Liverpool South Parkway, adding only an additional 10-15 minutes to journeys.

People are being advised to check with their train operator or www.networkrail.co.uk/LCR and plan ahead of the affected weekend.

Police claim station closure is not linked to ‘spike in crime’ Report by Henry James

POLICE have reassured residents after some claimed a spike in crime is linked to the temporary closure of Skelmersdale Police Station.

The local station is closed for refurbishment for 12-18 months and locals claim officers are having to travel from Ormskirk at the start of their shifts.

However, police chiefs have pointed out that members of their neighbourhood team and response officers have been based at Skelmersdale fire station, on Tanhouse Road.

Concerned resident Paul Mullany wrote to the Champion and MP Rosie Cooper with his concerns: “Following this weeks shootings and the recent murders within our community it is no coincidence that the increase in violent crime is happening while our police station is closed for months for a refurbishment.

“What is apparent during this work is that police officers shifts start and finish at Ormskirk police station shaving 40 valuable

Skelmersdale Police Station

minutes off each shift.”

Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner Clive Grunshaw commented: "Due to the age and condition of Skelmersdale station, it was no longer fit for purpose and is being upgraded and modernised and will remain closed for approximately 12-18 months.

“Whilst work is being carried out the majority of staff and equipment have temporarily relocated to Ormskirk Police Station, approximately seven miles, or a 15 minutes’ drive away. However, there has

always remained a police presence in the town with members of the neighbourhood team and response officers based at the fire station on Tanhouse Road where they book on for duty and are briefed. I'd reassure the community that since officers have been split across both areas, time to arrive to incidents across West Lancashire has improved.

“Both Skelmersdale and Ormskirk have seen a significant increase in high visibility patrols, providing long term enforcement activity to tackle issues such as anti-social behaviour, drug dealing and targeting outstanding offenders.”

West Lancashire MP Rosie Cooper said: “With the reports on the recent violent incidents happening in Skelmersdale, along with local residents I am deeply concerned by these events. We certainly don’t want to see any repeat of such violence in the town.

“I am in regular contact with Lancashire Police. I have also raised the issue with the Police and Crime Commissioner because the people of Skelmersdale should not be fearful of stepping out of their house.

“I have raised Mr Mullany’s concerns directly with Lancashire Police.”

Skem’s most wanted pair still on the run OFFICERS are continuing their search for Skelmersdale’s most wanted pair, Stephen Grimes and Joel Dowling.

Dowling, 23, from Skelmersdale and Grimes, 22, from Up Holland, (see picture, right) are wanted following an affray and threats to commit an arson attack.

They are also wanted for a further offence of threats. On Tuesday, October 22 police searched the properties of a number of known associates of the men.

Insp Ellie Kanoun from Skelmersdale Police said: “Grimes and Dowling are still outstanding but we are determined to find them. We believe they are still in and around the Skelmersdale area and would advise anyone with information to do the right thing and come forward.

“We are advising people not to approach them but to instead call police immediately on 999.”

PLANNED strikes by Merseyrail staff on every Saturday in November and December have been called off after what is described as a ‘major breakthrough’ in talks between the RMT union and Merseyrail.

Union bosses claim Merseyrail ‘tabled an offer that guarantees both a guard on the train and the safety-critical role of that guard in the despatch process and ensures the safest possible method by having guards close the train doors at the platform/train interface.’

Merseyrail confirmed that they are now working with the union towards a final deal.

The company’s proposals have been examined in detail at a meeting of RMT reps and the union’s National Executive and the union said they, ‘represent significant movement on the crucial despatch issue that has enabled the union to suspend all action in the current dispute.’

The union added further work had to be done around the fine detail but said it is ‘committed in principle to the despatch procedure and to taking that process forward with a view to getting a final deal over the line.’

RMT general secretary, Mick Cash, said: “The breakthrough in the long-running Merseyrail guards’ dispute has been achieved after nearly three years of hard political, industrial and public campaigning and I want to pay tribute to RMT members who have been prepared to put themselves on the line at significant personal cost to defend safety and accessibility on the railway.

“The progress that has been achieved has been extraordinary. We have pushed back from the threat of wholesale driver-only operation across Mer-

seyrail to not only a guarantee of a guard on every train but a guarantee the guard will retain a safetycritical role in the despatch process including the most operationally safe method of guards closing the doors at the platform/train interface.

“That is a significant development that will resonate throughout the rail industry.”

Andy Heath, Merseyrail managing director, responded: “At no time in our many days of negotiations with the RMT did we ever lose sight of the fact that the new Merseyrail trains will be one of the best metro railway trains in the national rail network.

“I am pleased that after consideration the RMT’s National Executive Committee have endorsed the latest proposal in principal and at the same time have given our customers, shoppers and traders the benefit of the lead-up to Christmas being strike-free by suspending the planned nine days of strikes.

“We will now progress with the next phase of discussions to finalise an agreement so that the RMT can consult with its guard members before proceeding towards implementation.”

Firm celebrating 10th anniversary of its ‘industry leading’ inspections A SKELMERSDALE software firm is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its ‘industry leading’ inspections product with the news that 18million reports have been completed for commercial rental, cranes and lifting firms.

CheckedOK was used by CoreRFID clients to generate the reports, with certification documents, for the nearly 95,000 firms they service.

Since 2009, 3,227,000 items of equipment have been checked and their status recorded.

The company, which has established itself as the market leading inspection system for the cranes and

Report by Henry James lifting industries in the UK and Ireland, is now looking to extend its client base at home and abroad. CoreRFID has 65 clients using CheckedOK in the British Isles with a global customer base extending to Spain, Germany, Switzerland and Australia.

The company records results of inspections from engineers working remotely.

The data is entered through hand-held devices such as phones and tablets and is

immediately sent to a secure hosted database. Reports and certification are then available to users online via a web browser.

CheckedOK was initially designed in response to the challenges faced by one of Ireland’s leading manufacturer of custom made solutions for materials handling, lifting gear and construction plant. The firm still uses the system today.

Technical director Munzi Ali said: “Our future work will be to evolve the system to give users even more flexibility and enable them to take advantage of the latest mobile technology.”

Site of the proposed redevelopment

Proposals to build 60 homes deferred Report by Henry James PROPOSALS to build 60 two storey residential properties at the former playing fields at Barnes Road, Skelmersdale have been deferred by councillors on West Lancashire Borough Council Planning Committee.

The proposals came before the borough council’s Planning Committee on Thursday, October 17.

The site can be found 1.5km from the town centre and the total site is some 2.45ha.

To the east of the site is Barnes Road and it is bordered on three sides by residential development which is predominantly two storeys.

Park Children’s Centre and an existing Scout Hut is to the west of the site.

There are playing pitches on the site which have not been used for five years and the open space is fenced off with no permitted public access.

The majority of the site will be used for the building of 60 two storey homes with the provision of the south west corner of the site closest to the access for: 12 allotments; communal building; land for replacement Scout hut and communal car park with 12 spaces.

The proposed dwellings comprise 21 two bed dwellings; 28 three bed dwellings; and 11 four bed dwellings. There would be a new site access on Barnes Road.

There have been 10 objections from people living nearby, who raised the following issues: that this is

the wrong area for housing; loss of open space and loss of green area; lack of facilities in area; disruption during construction; that the housing being built is not affordable; and problems with access, traffic and parking.

However there have been five letters of support for the proposals.

John Harrison, the director of development and regeneration at West Lancashire Borough Council was in favour of the application and gave his reasons for supporting it in a report for the planning committee. He wrote: “In relation to the loss of playing fields I consider that the open space/recreation needs of the area and site have been properly evaluated, as required by the National Planning Policy Framework, and believe that they are best served by using part of the site for allotment and community use.

“The Viability Assessment undertaken by the Council’s Financial Advisers recognises that the development is not able to support any substantive planning obligations such as affordable housing but it does provide community benefit.

“I consider that the layout, scale, proportions and design of the proposed dwellings to be an acceptable addition to this part of Skelmersdale and that proposed development would not adversely impact on neighbouring amenity of surrounding properties.

“Subject to conditions I consider that the development satisfactorily addresses highways, drainage, ecology and trees, contamination and coal risk and archaeology.”

MORE than 2,000 pupils across Ormskirk and Skelmersdale got to find out more about child criminal exploitation after a theatre production company delivered a hard hitting play.

County Lines – out in the counties, was performed by young people for young people and visited 10 schools showcasing the play to students aged 12 years and above.

Child Criminal Exploitation is when a child or young person is exploited (used) for profit, labour, sexual satisfaction or personal financial advantage.

Children are being groomed into county lines which is the police term for urban gangs supplying drugs to suburban areas, as well as market and coastal towns, using dedicated mobile phone lines.

However criminal exploitation of children is broader than just county lines and can include children being forced to work on cannabis farms, commit theft or begging.

The play received “excellent feedback” from both students and staff with many schools holding workshops around the issue.

Sgt Andy Bramhall from Lancashire Police who

secured the funding from the Office of Police and Crime Commissioner, West Lancashire Community Safety Partnership and GENGA, (Lancashire Police’s partnership approach to tackling serious and organised crime) said: “The schools thought this was an excellent way of engaging with the pupils and getting the message across about the consequences of child criminal exploitation, as they could relate to the young people in the play and in particular, how easy it can be to potential be manipulated and groomed.”

Clive Grunshaw, Lancashire’s Police and Crime Commissioner added: “Supporting vulnerable people and victims is a key priority in my Police and Crime Plan and I believe that education is critical in tackling any form of child exploitation.

“I saw myself how the performances put these important messages across and also the impact that it had with young people.

“By working together and ensuring the right messages are put across in an engaging way is an important part of keeping people safe and preventing others falling victim to these awful crimes.”

Council reiterates pledge to crack down on fly-tippers Businessman fined £726 after dumping building materials and household waste on grass verge Report by Henry James A BUSINESSMAN from Skelmersdale has been prosecuted by West Lancashire Borough Council for fly-tipping offences after rubbish was found dumped in the area.

Wigan Magistrates Court heard that a trailer full of rubbish, including construction waste, internal doors, general building materials and bin bags of household waste, was found on a grass verge by Grimshaw Road in the town.

Council officers traced this back to Robbie Williams of Enstone, Tanhouse and his rubbish removal company, JC Group Services Ltd. At the court Mr Williams pleaded guilty to failing to comply with a legal notice which required him to explain to the council why the waste had been dumped.

He had also been asked to provide the address of the site where it was meant to be taken to.

He was fined £120 and ordered to pay £576.46 costs and a £30 victim surcharge, a total of £726.46.

Councillor Kevin Wright, West Lancs Council’s cabinet member for health and community safety, said: “Fly-tipping is a criminal offence and the

council will take strong action to crack down on this important issue.”

The authority is reminding householders and businesses they need to make sure any waste they have removed is disposed of legally.

Anyone removing waste as part of a business must have a waste carriers’ licence and give waste transfer notes to whoever they collect waste from.

Householders can check if someone has a waste carriers’ licence by contacting the Environment Agency on 03708 506506 or at www.gov.uk/government/organisations/environment-agency.

If you think waste has been disposed of illegally then you can report this to the council on their website register with its new online self-service customer portal at www.westlancs.gov.uk/flytipping.

Rosie Cooper slams ‘unfair’ allocation of new police officers

NEWLANDS Locks&Keys

MP echoes commissioner’s sentiments after Home Office announces county is to get less than half the number requested in first wave of recruitment ROSIE Cooper has joined Lancashire’s Police and Crime Commissioner, Clive Grunshaw in criticising the Home Office’s recent allocation of additional police officers for the county.

Following the Home Secretary’s announcement of funding for 20,000 extra police officers for England and Wales over the next three years, Mr Grunshaw had hoped to be able to replace all the 750 officers ‘lost’ to Lancashire since 2010.

But having requested 340 recruits in the first year of the three-year process, he accused the Government of “snubbing” the county when only 153 were allocated.

Now West Lancs MP Ms Cooper, who had written to Home Secretary Priti Patel calling for a fair funding allocation for Lancashire Police, has slammed the decision. She said: “This is a travesty. Here was an opportunity for the Government and specifically the Home Office to right a previous wrong and they have failed to do so.

“Although I welcome the additional officers and the pay rise for the hard-working, dedicated and brave officers already serving, the Government is failing to provide any additional monies to police forces to fund the rise.

“The people and communities of West Lancashire deserve more support from this Government than they are getting when it comes to public safety and tackling crime.

“There is no doubt the loss of officers has impacted across Lancashire forcing officers into tough choices on what activities they do police and prioritising their responses.

Replacement Euro Cylinders Brass or Nickel All sizes

Lancashire Police will get less than half the number of officers requested in the first wave of recruitment.

“To see areas, such as Surrey, that have never suffered a noticeable loss of officer numbers to then get an even greater increase is deeply unfair and unjust, whilst Lancashire remains far short of the officer numbers it desperately needs.

“I have once again written to the Home Secretary to explain how utterly unacceptable this announcement is and I will continue to call for fair funding for our police force.”

A Home Office spokesperson responded: “We are investing £750 million to support forces to recruit up to 6,000 additional police officers by April 2021 - the first stage in our drive to recruit 20,000 extra officers over the next three years.

“Last week, we announced that Lancashire Police will be able to recruit 153 new officers in the first wave of recruitment. We have also provided over £3million in funding to support efforts to reduce serious violence in the area.”

BREXIT – THE SAVIOUR OF ROAD TRAFFIC ACCIDENT WHIPLASH CLAIMS… FOR NOW

So what does this mean for people involved in road traffic accidents? Currently, an individual has the ability to approach almost any litigation solicitor for assistance in making a claim for damages related to the injuries they have sustained as a result of their innocent involvement in a road traffic accident. This is because, most of these solicitors can currently offer a ‘no-win, no- fee’ funding arrangement to ensure their clients do not need to pay any legal fees up front. This is down to the fact that, generally, most people suffer whiplash type injuries in these accidents, the value of which is generally expected to exceed £1,000. If a current claim involving whiplash attains or exceeds this figure the solicitor gets paid fixed costs from the at fault driver’s insurer and the process is financially viable for the solicitor and for their client.

Under the new Civil Liability Act, these provisions are set to change. A party suffering from whiplash injuries has to establish that their injuries are so severe that they would attain or exceed a value of £5,000 before their solicitor can receive their fixed costs legal fees from the at fault driver’s insurer.

This is, by in large, an unrealistic outcome for the bulk of these claims and as such the vast majority of solicitors helping these clients will no longer be able to offer them the benefit of a ‘no-win, no-fee’ agreement and will instead be paid privately by their clients – an often expensive exercise.

Currently, the unacted parts of the Civil Liability Act seem to have been pushed to the back of the Government’s agenda given the ongoing issues relating to Brexit.

We are not sure when the remainder of the Act will become law and we see no current stance for the changes to be applied retrospectively to claims already ongoing. In essence, if you were injured in a road traffic accident in the last 3 years and it was not your fault – act immediately to make a claim for the compensation you are entitled to.

Dickinson Parker Hill can offer a ‘no win, no-fee’ agreement to anyone who was injured in a road traffic accident as above so please contact our specialist litigation Solicitor, Sam Seagraves on 01695 574 201 to discuss your options today.

keenly involved in many aspects of life throughout the county.

“I am therefore keen to recognise and reward outstanding contributions to society through the Young Citizen Award.

“Applications can be for any positive contribution to local lif fundraising, helping or caring for people (within or without their family), or being very thoughtful, kind or brave in some way.

Not everyone can win the prize, but nominations will give the opportunity for each young person to be congratulated.”

Dr Lynne Livesey, interim vicechancellor of awards sponsors, the University of Central Lancashire, said: “Our young people play a huge role in making local communities safer and better places to live and it is extremely important that we recognise and celebrate their achievements.

Many go above and beyond, stepping out of their comfort zones to make a difference.”

Approval of a parent or guardian is needed for nominations, subsequent publicity and any future events involving the finalists.

Nomination forms can be completed online at https://www.lanpac.co.uk/nomination/. For more information contact Al Yusuf or Anna Baybutt from LANPAC on 01772 412796.

LETTERS to the Editor

The nation’s addiction to the car and Negative generalisations our under-funded public transport is about students not the root of parking and traffic problems way to promote harmony I WOULD like to echo the comments made by ‘A Voice of Realism’ (Letters, October 16).

Last week we were told a new ‘task group’ was set up to ‘review ’ the everworsening car parking situation.

As Mr Realism alludes to, this is a deeprooted planning problem that is going to require more than just a splash of yellow paint along some nearby roads.

What has my cultural origin got to do with reporting crime?

WHAT does my ethnicity have to do with reporting crime?

I recently tried to contact Lancashire Police to report an incident, and after telephoning, since this wasn’t an emergency, I was told to report it online.

I began entering details such as date, time, details of the incident etc., when I was then asked about my ethnicity. I would like to know what my ethnic background has to do with reporting crime?

Are we put into categories based on our cultural origins?

I am white British, but does this really matter when it comes down to being a good, honest citizen?

Mr. D., Up Holland resident.

Our town is made up of kind and caring people not just buildings

As much as I am sick of the selfish and obstructive parking around the university, I am also sick of comments from local residents who scream and shout about the need for a new multi-storey car park, or even a park-and-ride facility near the M58.

All of these short-sighted suggestions fail to address the elephant in the room - our addiction to the car.

There are simply too many cars on the road, be they moving (in congestion) or static (parked on pavements). This is precisely what happens when you spend decades under-investing in public transport and decades of subsidising the motor industry (not to mention the decades of relentless road building).

The rail industry was torn apart in the 1960s following the Beeching cuts, while the bus industry has gradually been worn down by successive governments too.

This is the root of the problem and until it is addressed we’ll never see the reopening of the Burscough Curves, never see Sunday rail services from Ormskirk to Pre-

ston, never see proper cycle schemes, such as the fabled Ormskirk-Skelmersdale Linear Park and will continue to read articles in such as the Daily Mail about how congestion is on the rise - likewise road rage and then declare a ‘war on the motorist’ whenever the price of petrol rises by so much as a penny.

All the local councillors know what need to be done. They all know we need greater investment in rail, bus and cycling.

The nation’s addiction to the car is a disease but is one that can be easily cured by better land-use planning, greater investment in public transport and by bringing an end to the endless pandering down to the motor lobby.

Give us a public transport system that we can be proud of. The type that we all see in Europe.

This is how we solve the Edge Hill conundrum and many other transport problems in the process.

Over to you, councillors...

Scott Mitchelton, Ormskirk.

IT was with dismay that I read the letter supplied by an Ormskirk resident in the Champion (October 9) and the reference to a so-called ‘student invasion.’

The author calls for living in ‘harmony and tranquility’ together but voices opinions which make sweeping negative generalisations about students.

Whilst I am sorry to hear that some students are causing a nuisance to local residents, let’s not forget that it isn’t all of them.

I consider saying that students don’t contribute financially to society and that they are a ‘drain on the NHS’ misguided at best.

Not only do students pay extortionate fees for the so-called privilege of being educated, many

WELL, it is obvious that Mr Maurice George (Letters, October 16) would not feel so ‘lucky to be in a university town’ if he would kindly take a walk in the town centre and up St Helens Road almost any night between 2 and 2.30am (especially Wednesdays).

You know, Mr George, some of us tax-payers need to get to go to work in the mornings.

St Helens Road resident, by email.

of the week

THERE are always letters in the Champion complaining about Ormskirk but Ormskirk is the people!

Through the letters page I would like to thank the lady and gentleman who helped pick up my husband after his nasty fall and then helped him into the nearby GP’s practice on Monday, September 30.

They were so kind and thoughtful and I can’t thank them enough for their help.

Ormskirk consists of buildings but is also made up of all the kind and caring Ormskirk folk and I cannot thank these two people enough.

K. I., Ormskirk.

Let’s hope choir’s fantastic concert at parish church is first of many I WOULD like to express my thanks to Liverpool Cathedral Choir for the wonderful concert they gave on Saturday, October 12 at Ormskirk Parish Church.

It was fantastic to hear such a prestigious choir singing world-famous pieces in our local parish church.

Let’s hope this is just the beginning of many more such concerts in our market town.

June Duxbury, by email.

of them are contributing to local business by spending their money here or even working here. Arguably they make a substantial contribution to keeping the local economy going.

But all that aside, many of these students are training to be doctors, paramedics and nurses and will be instrumental in providing the NHS of the future, possibly in this county if we welcome them warmly enough!

Let’s not forget - thankfully we live in a free country and failing that are we really wanting to pick up our pitchforks and run them out of town?

Ormskirk resident, former well-behaved student and long-serving NHS employee.

Violent crime in town on the increase during police station closure FOLLOWING this week’s shootings and the recent murders within the Skelmersdale community it is surely no coincidence that the increase in violent crime is happening whilst our police station is closed for months for a refurbishment.

What is apparent during this work is that police officers’ shifts start and finish at Ormskirk police station shaving 40 valuable minutes off each shift (20 minutes each way at best).

This means, for instance, five officers x 40 minutes x 365 days = 1,217 hours lost every year. This equates to 101, 12-hour man/day shifts.

Perhaps someone can contact the chief constable to check my calculations and request his thoughts on the subject?

If my observations are there or thereabouts this is an unacceptable loss of policing hours when you consider the loading levied on our local council taxes.

I am also amazed that our chief constable is conspicuous by his absence during these troubled times in Skelmersdale. Maybe he has a long commute time to start his shift.

Paul Mullany, by email.

MP joins cross-party campaign calling for PM’s commitment to Northern Forest Report by Henry James WEST Lancs MP Rosie Cooper is one of 120 cross-party regional politicians bidding to take the issue of climate change to the heart of the Government by writing to the Prime Minister urging his support for the Northern Forest.

The letter asks the PM to commit to deliver the forest and look at opportunities that support the development of green investment models, as well as inviting him to plant a tree.

The Northern Forest will see 50 million trees planted over the next 25 years in the North of England by the Woodland Trust and their partners, with more than 600,000 already in the ground.

Eventually it is proposed the forest will span 120 miles, connecting towns and the cities of Liverpool, Manchester and Lancaster to the west with Sheffield, Leeds and Hull to the east and, it’s claimed, benefit 13 million residents and generate £2.5 billion in social, economic and environmental benefits.

Rosie Cooper said: “Facing a climate change crisis, the challenge of severe flooding and needing to

Rosie Cooper: “...expanding the Northern Forest can help to alleviate the effects of environmental challenges.”

protect and strengthen our environment, I am absolutely backing this campaign by putting my name to this cross-party letter.

“We are all affected by the effects of climate change and West Lancashire residents have suffered at the hands of severe flooding in recent years. By the ambitious plans for expanding the Northern Forest we can help to alleviate the effects of environmental challenges and I’m very happy to support this initiative.

“There are also wider benefits.

Having more forests locally will mean we can house more natural

plants, animals and insects and allow local schools to use them as part of their learning. It will also create new job opportunities.”

The campaign, initiated by Sheffield City Region Mayor and MP for Barnsley Central, Dan Jarvis, brings together a cross-party group of northern leaders and MPs. He said: “The Northern Forest will be transformational for more than 13 million residents, improving their health and wellbeing. It is an initiative of international significance and I’m now calling on the Prime Minister to back this project, bestowing a legacy we can all be proud of.”

Chief executive of the Woodland Trust, Darren Moorcroft, added: “The Northern Forest represents the green lungs of the Northern Powerhouse.

“This pioneering project will deliver millions of new trees planted, and billions of pounds worth of economic, social and environmental benefits to the region. If we are to tackle the climate and biodiversity crises the world faces, internationally significant projects like the Northern Forest must be at the forefront of bold, ambitious domestic thinking.”

Thomas Cook Skelmersdale store

Hays Travel could open up in failed Cook stores Report by Henry James THOMAS Cook travel agency branches in West Lancashire and Sefton could reopen after independent travel agent Hays Travel acquired all 555 Thomas Cook shops from the Official Receiver.

Hays Travel - based in Sunderland - has already taken on more than 25% of the former Thomas Cook retail employees and is proposing to reopen the stores ‘where possible’. More than 100 new jobs will be based at the company’s Sunderland headquarters with the rest in shops across the UK. The company already has Hays Travel stores in Burscough Street, Ormskirk and in the Concourse.

Thomas Cook stopped trading on Monday, September 23, leaving all of its branches in the UK closed, including its shops in the Concourse in Skelmersdale, Lord Street, Southport, Chapel Lane, Formby, and the Strand in Bootle.

Hays are proposing to open the 555 Thomas Cook shops ‘as soon as possible’ with company bosses saying they are making ‘excellent progress to date.

Hays intention is to keep the stores trading profitably and ‘build on some of the Hays Travel business approach and ethos’.

The deal involves re-opening retail premises that will ‘complement’ Hays Travel’s own 190 shops across the UK. Hays Travel is a private company, jointly owned and managed by John Hays, managing director, and Irene Hays, chair of the Hays Travel Group. The company hopes to take on as many of the 2,500 former Thomas Cook retail employees as possible in the coming weeks, doubling its workforce.

John Hays said: “Our staff were devastated to hear about Thomas Cook and we all immediately felt we wanted to help.

“In the last two weeks we have already employed or offered jobs to around 600 former Thomas Cook colleagues, and it has been a very emotional experience for them. Now that we are able to re-open the shops, we are looking forward to welcoming many more people who share our passion for the travel industry, into our family business.”

Anybody wishing to remember a loved one is welcome to attend.

The service will be led by the Reverend Martin Abrams and the Reverend Jan Fraser from the Chaplaincy and Spiritual Care Service at the trust.

Consultant in palliative Mmdicine, Dr Karen Groves, will also be taking part.

‘Supportive’ Rev. Abrams said: “There are many ways people like to remember loved ones. This is a warm invitation to come along for anyone who would wish to do so in the context of a church service.

We hope the time together will be gentle, supportive and encouraging.

in palliative care and bereavement support.”

After the service, there will be time for reflection, conversation and refreshments.

First Responders’ work is recognised at awards ceremony

Visit us @ www.ChampNews.com l 23

Charity Will Month

by Danielle Thompson A DAY of celebrations was held to mark 20 years of ‘Community First Responders’ across the North West.

North West Ambulance Service held the event earlier this month to ‘say a big thank you for the invaluable service they provide.’

The NWAS currently has 870 active CFRs across the region members of the public who volunteer to attend emergencies in their local community. CFRs don’t need any previous medical experience but are trained to start life-saving intervention in the event of a cardiac arrest as well as other emergency situations.

Potentially sited closer to the patient than an ambulance, they can give patients vital extra minutes when every second counts, as well as providing reassurance and assisting ambulance clinicians.

A celebration of their work took place at Castle Green Hotel in Kendal. The event was entirely funded by sponsorship from organisations who work within the health sector.

This was followed by a confer-

ence where a number of speakers took to the stage to show their appreciation of CFRs and speak about the past, present and future of the volunteer role.

Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Matt Hancock, sent a special thank you message which was played at the conference. He said: “Your actions make all the difference and I want to say a huge thank you not only from me but from the count-

less lives you save and the people you help.”

In the evening, the room was transformed into a glitzy awards ceremony, hosted by ITV Granada’s Paul Crone, where ‘remarkable responders’ from across the region were recognised for their exemplary service. l To find out more about how to become a CFR, visit www.nwas.nhs.uk/volunteer

Cat owners urged to neuter pets to avoid unwanted pregnancies STAFF AT AN animal rescue centre in West Lancs are reminding animal lovers to help avoid the burden of unwanted cat pregnancies by having their pets neutered.

Woodlands Animal Sanctuary, based at Holmeswood, is also hoping to find homes for cats that have recently had kittens.

The charity says that pregnant cats delivered to its doorstep often have a number of issues, such as being underweight, allergies, or being too young to carry their kittens full term.

All of these issues cause the cat discomfort but can be easily avoided, according to the sanctuary.

A spokesperson for Woodlands

said: “Neutering, is a very easy way to avoid senseless and unwanted pregnancies in our pets. A routine operation at your local vet, will eliminate the possibility of all of the potential associated risks of pregnancy, not to mention help to reduce the number of abandoned and unwanted pets.�

The sanctuary says that all kittens and cats it rehomes are neutered, adding to its running costs. However, the mothers ‘unfortunately seem to get overlooked themselves’ when people choose a pet to rescue.

To find out more about the rehoming process contact Woodlands by phoning 01704 823293.

SOLICITORS Dickinson Parker Hill will once again be taking part in Charity Will Month during November.

Since 2009 the firm, based in Derby Street, Ormskirk, has raised more than £104,000 for good causes, including the Neonatal unit at Ormskirk Hospital, Help for Heroes and Derian House Children’s Hospice in Chorley.

Last year’s beneficiary, to the tune of more than £11,700, was Alder Hey Children’s Charity.

This year the law firm will be aiming to drum up funds for Freshfields Animal Rescue. The animal welfare charity has been established more than 40 years with centres in Ince Blundell and Caernarfon, Wales.

Charity Will Month works by clients making a donation to the charity rather than paying a fee for their will. The recommended minimum donation is ÂŁ60 for a simple single will and ÂŁ120 for simple mirror wills.

Partner at Dickinson Parker Hill, Michael Prendergast, said: ‘We are now in our 10th year of holding our Charity Will Month and over the years we have helped a number of worthy local causes. “We are delighted to be working with Freshfields this year as we know many in the local area will support Freshfields Michael Prendergast. and value the work they do in relation to animal welfare. Hopefully we can raise as much as possible for them in the next few weeks’.

Director of Freshfields Animal Rescue, Helen Stanbury, added: ‘We are delighted and honoured to have been chosen as the charity partner of Dickinson Parker Hill during Charity Will Month 2019. We look forward to making a very positive difference to the lives of many more animals in desperate need of our help, as a direct result of this support from Michael and his team.�

Edge Hill academic’s key role in drawing up new guidelines for use of mental health initiatives in sport AN Edge Hill University professor is one of a team of experts called on to produce an international consensus statement on mental health awareness in sport.

Professor Andy Smith, from the Ormskirk university’s Department of Sport and Physical Activity, was key in drawing up the statement which creates a new framework for applying practices and analysing the impact of mental wellbeing in sport.

The internationally-recognised study, published in the BMJ Open Sport and Exercise Medicine journal, has created minimum guidelines for the use of mental health initiatives in sporting environments to increase understanding of the links between sporting participation and improved mental health.

Prof. Smith said: “Although there is growing national and international interest in the relationship between sport and mental health, much of this has focused on elite sport and comparatively less attention has been given to the mental health needs of the general population in local communities.

“Developing guidelines for the implementation and evaluation

Professor Andy Smith.

of programmes in a non-elite context, as well as in elite sport, are therefore crucial because it is at non-elite levels of sport where mental health is a significant public health concern.

“The concensus statement repan important resents development because it not only emphasizes the need to focus on determining effective reporting of mental health awareness and implementation programmes at all levels of sport and for participants, but also emphasizes the need to focus on all types of sports workers including coaches, managers, support staff, administrators and officials.

“This broader focus is necessary to increase the effective implementation, translation and evaluation of mental health programmes which have significant potential to benefit population health.”

10 countries were involved in the development of the statement and it is expected that the work will help guide mental health intervention design for players, coaches, officials and sporting organisations, both in elite and non-elite fields.

The framework provides evidence-based guidance for selecting mental health awareness and implementation programmes in sport which acknowledge diversity and are quality assured at all stages.

Prof Smith’s work on the consensus statement is part of a wider programme of sport and mental health work carried out at Edge Hill University.

The Sport and Physical Activity Workforce Mental Health Survey is the first nationwide study of mental health in the sport and physical activity workforce and the Everton in the Community Partnership aims to use the power of sport to motivate, educate and inspire people in local communities to live healthier lifestyles.

I don’t want anyone telling me what I can eat - or where!

ONE of my small pleasures in life is to buy a bar of some chocolatey substance while I am in Southport visiting Champion Towers and then eat it on my bus ride home.

Now anyone who knows me would acknowledge that I am not by any manner or means overweight, but a good doctor is proposing that eating anything on public transport should be banned because too many people are - not to put too fine a point on it - becoming, well, fat.

As a sidebar to this, why is it that anyone who is a doctor may still use the word ‘fat’, but if ordinary mortals such as myself do this we are committing ‘unacceptable’ language?

Anyway, this doctor reckons that what she terms ‘snacking’ is a major cause of obesity, so if I look like I am going to tuck into a KitKat or something similar it should be a case of slappy handies for me.

Mind you, what the good doctor fails to explain is exactly who should enforce this new Draconian idea. Will the bus driver stop his vehicle and scour his bus for the person guiltily trying to unwrap his chocolate bar silently, or stuff the remains of his or her sandwich into his or her mouth before it is confiscated?

The train companies in general will probably endorse the doctor’s plan - after all they have steadily been reducing the possibility of anyone buying anything to eat on their services for years.

Restaurant cars have all-but disappeared, buffets have been ripped out to provide a few more seats for hungry passengers (they can’t be customers because they can’t buy anything) and the ‘trolley service’ that has replaced them is usually stuck in one part of the train because of luggage or standing passengers in their way.

And all this because folk cannot accept responsibility for their own actions - and now apparently this has been realised by officialdom so daft new rules must be applied to save us from ourselves.

It’s all on a par with nothing, ever, being our own

fault. In our brave new world accidents do not exist. Whatever has happened to you must be the fault of someone else and you should receive compensation.

How long, I wonder, will it be before fatties (so sue me) bring an action against Cadbury for providing them with a fattening snack? Or the local shop for selling it?

My mum’s old mantra - “It’s your own fault” when something bad happened to me is something which has guided my life in general. There are genuine ‘accidents’ where no-one is really to blame because something totally unplanned for has occurred. Things do break or fall off even with the most careful maintenance.

And then there are occasions when whatever has happened to you was indeed down to your own stupidity.

If I found I was suddenly putting on weight, then my Southport chocolate treat would probably be one of the first things to go. Better for me than cutting out the breakfast porridge.

But though I might envy seeing another on my bus eating a sandwich I certainly would not support them being told they shouldn’t.

Come on, get real. Haven’t we got enough new rules and regulations as it is?

Take a grip, take responsibility for your own actions and accept the consequences. Sometimes it’s worth the risk of putting on a few ounces for the sheer joy of having a chocolate cream cake for your pud.

After all, you could always forgo the KitKat on your next bus journey.

I really do not know what kind of world the doctor who put up this suggestion lives in - or would like to live in. But I really cannot see what I may eat on a bus or train has to do with her.

I would personally be happier if folk didn’t ‘smoke’ vaping cigarettes and fill the air with the attendant clouds of vapour, but I’d certainly not want to ban the daft things.

Women’s Refuge centre joins new county-wide partnership to support domestic abuse victims Report by Henry James WEST Lancashire Women’s Refuge at The Liberty Centre in Ormskirk has joined forces with other similar groups to support victims of domestic abuse across the county with the creation of a new partnership, Lancashire Refuges.

The partnership sees the centre working with South Ribble Women’s Refuge and Chorley Women’s Refuge (Progress Group), Fylde Coast Women’s Aid (FCWA) and lead provider, SafeNet Domestic Abuse and Support Services.

Launched last month, Lancashire Refuges offers emergency safe accommodation and specialist support to victims and survivors of domestic abuse using a single point of access to accept referrals from across the county 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with a dedicated referral helpline, 0300 303 3581.

Support will include temporary emergency accommodation, including Jane’s Place, the only complex needs Recovery Refuge in the North West.

Specialist domestic abuse support staff are trained to deliver tailored support to all victims and survivors including those from BAME and LGBTQI communities, children and young people, those with additional complex needs, those with

County Councillor Peter Buckley.

additional mobility, sensory, physical and learning needs and male victims.

Lancashire Refuges can also accommodate larger families through safe house provisions and can assist in accommodating pets via established pet foster services and employees at The Calico Group.

A spokesperson for the service said: “The West Lancashire Women’s Refuge has been an essential service in this community for over 30 years and we are pleased to be part of the future provision for Lancashire Refuge Service and continue our passion and mission to provide safe accommodation for women and children fleeing domestic abuse.

“The Liberty Centre at Church House in Ormskirk (tel. 01695 50600) provides support for anyone affected by domestic abuse - women, men, children and young people.”

Helen Gauder, managing director at SafeNet, added: ““We are fully committed to delivering best-quality accommodation with specialist bespoke support, keeping all victims and survivors safe and supporting them towards safer, healthier and happier futures.

“And we are working to strengthen and extend refuge services to ensure we can sustain and grow our services to meet the increasing demand for safe refuge spaces in Lancashire.”

Lancashire County Council's cabinet member for community and cultural services, County Councillor Peter Buckley, commented: “The council has awarded this contract in the expectation that we will benefit from the skills and expertise of our very experienced local domestic abuse providers. I don’t think I need to convince anyone how important it is to keep women and children safe and support better long-term outcomes for all survivors of domestic abuse.

“We look forward to working with SafeNet and their delivery partners throughout the life of this five-year contract as it continues to develop and improve the refuges.”

Village hall coffee morning raised ‘amazing’ £2,590 for cancer charity ORGANISERS of an annual coffee morning at Aughton Village Hall in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support have praised the local community after this year’s event raised an “amazing” £2,590.

Despite a wet morning, the day was well supported by generous local people and businesses who donated

prizes for the raffle and tombola, while many more made delicious cakes.

One of the organisers, Sue Watkinson, said: “The support given by everybody involved, for a charity that touches so many lives, was overwhelming and very much appreciated - thank you.”

Scam phone calls continue to cause concern WE have had another busy fortnight at Citizens Advice and this week I have to warn readers again about scam phone calls.

There have recently been a number of calls reputedly from HMRC. On Friday, October 11 we were busy in our Wright Street main office in Southport, when Mary, one of our specialist advisers got a call on her mobile from an unrecognised number. We recorded the call.

The caller said he was ‘David’ and was a specialist from HM Revenue and Customs. He said that she needed to call 0844 357 4778 otherwise she would have (undisclosed) problems and might need a solicitor. After the call, we tried the number via our landline and not surprisingly there was no response and the line went dead.

We Googled the number and found it listed as ‘dangerous’ and there was a report of number of queries and comments relating to the number. Our advice is that if you receive text messages or calls like this purporting to be from HMRC you can send details (date, whether phone or text, and content of call) to phishing@hmrc.gov.uk and report also to Action Fraud.

North Sefton Crime Alert had also reported the case of a self-employed joiner who had a similar call while he was working, and luckily the householder was aware of these scam calls and as soon as questions were asked of the caller, he terminated the call. Another (retired) resident contacted me to say that she got a call claiming to be from HMRC on 0075474910205 and that there was a warrant for her arrest and she should press 1 to speak, otherwise she would be arrested shortly.

She contacted me and when we tried that number via our landline it was shown as ‘forbidden’.

Our advice is, as always, tell your friends and neighbours and contact Citizens Advice for help and guidance. A special warning about call costs: The cost of calling a number like 0844357448 is made up of two parts: an access charge which goes to your phone provider and can cost up to 45p per

minute. The second part is a service charge by the organisation you are calling. This can be up to 10p per minute, so calling these numbers can cost you up to 55p per minute. So be careful.

Turning to phishing emails, I have had three in the last week from a company called Stable Rise Limited offering me investment opportunities in social housing bonds with promises of high interest rates. Our Pension Wise advisor, Carl, suggests that if someone contacts you in this way you should first check Financial Services Authority (FCA) to see whether the company contacting you is registered. They have a scamsmart link that you can use: https://www.fca.org.uk/scam smart/warning-list/search. If they are not registered, then before you consider taking up offers for this sort of investment opportunity contact your pension provider direct using the letterhead contact details from the correspondence before you do anything further.

Attempts Finally, a story about a fraud attempt on her bank account relating to the Thomas Cook bankruptcy.

A friend had a flight-only ticket for a flight on the day the firm ceased to trade. She put in a claim for recovery of credit card payment and she got a call next day purporting to be from her bank and suggesting there had been a fraudulent transaction and giving her a Paypal link to her mobile followed up by authorisation code.

After a number of attempts to get her to use these authorisation codes, she spoke to her bank and it was agreed to cancel all her debit and credit cards, put a block on her bank account and put her through to the banks security team who, after an explanation of the issues said ‘the scammers are getting more sophisticated’.

Landmarks are pink to highlight breast cancer awareness Report by Kenny Parker WEST Lancs Borough Council has explained why both the Lightcube in Skelmersdale and Ormskirk Clock Tower have been lit up pink throughout October.

The local authority has said the light displays are to highlight its support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and they will remain lit up pink until Thursday, October 31.

Locally Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Foundation Trust’s breast screening unit works across South Lancashire, including West Lancashire.

The team are scheduled to be at Ormskirk Hospital until May 2020.

Women aged 50 to 70 who are registered with a GP are eligible for screening and invitations are sent out automatically.

Janet Ellison, Patient Navigator for the South Lancashire Breast Screening Unit, said: “It is essential that we encourage eligible women to attend their screening appointment - as early detection can save lives.

“I’d like to thank the council for supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month.”

John Caine, West Lancashire GP and chair at NHS West Lancashire Clinical Commissioning Group, added: “It’s vitally important everyone knows the signs and symptoms of breast cancer.

“I’d urge women and men, to get to know how their breasts look and feel, and if they spot anything unusual to get them checked out by their GP.”

The Light Cube in Skelmersdale will be pink for the rest of the month - as well as the Clock Tower in Ormskirk

ENTERTAINMENT

Top classical pianist Drama group to present comedy thriller to perform in village Report by Henry James THE internationally renowned pianist Anna Fedorova is to perform in the intimate surroundings of Parbold Village Hall’s Auditorium on Saturday, November 2, 7.45pm.

She will play a selection of works for the piano including nocturnes by Chopin and some of Rachmaninov’s most dazzling Preludes.

Tickets are available from www.parbolddouglasmusic.org.

Anna Fedorova regularly performs in the most famous concert halls as a soloist, chamber musician and with the world’s most distinguished orchestras.

She has performed at the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam more than 30 times, and her performance of Rachmaninov ’s Piano Concerto No.2 at the prestigious venue is the most watched classical concerto on YouTube, having been viewed more than 24 million times. Classic FM’s list of the very best women pianists places her as fourth in the world, praising her ‘extraordinary ’ talent.

Her Parbold Douglas Music concert will be her third visit.

Anna will open the concert with a rare chance to hear Uninterrupted Rests, an extraordinary work by Takemitsu that captures the mood of a

dark, cold and windy night.

The warmer tones of Franz Liszt follow in his Tre sonetti di Petrarca, inspired by the poetry of Petrarch, before Anna performs five of Rachmaninov ’s Preludes from his Opus 23 and 32.

The Preludes are among Rachmaninov ’s finest pieces for the piano and are an opportunity to hear the Auditorium’s magnificent instrument at its very best.

Truly Romantic pieces, they are wellknown for their beautiful melodies that range from delicate and gentle, to majestic and powerful.

Anna will also perform two of Scriabin’s most technically demanding sonatas, numbers 2 and 4. The sonatas are some of the most challenging works in the piano repertoire and are spectacular to watch in a live concert.

To end her performance, Anna will perform two of Frederik Chopin’s Nocturnes and the utterly dazzling Ballade No. 4, Op. 52.

Tickets are £18 for adults and £5 for young persons and students.

More information can be found at www.parbolddouglasmusic.org, or by emailing tickets@parbolddouglasmusic. org / or you can telephone 01257 498452 (answerphone).

For further information contact: michael.bonsall@btinternet.com / 01257 463646. editorial@champnews.com

take his place. He chooses the night of Edward VIII’s abdication to carry out his plan. Rehearsals are shown right.

The play runs from October 25 to November 2.

VOLVO has announced the prices of a new trio of high performance hybrid models due to arrive here by the end of the year.

The S60 saloon, V60 estate and XC60 off-roader are all available to order now in what the Swedish manufacturer calls Polestar Engineered form, with a tuned two-litre petrol engine, producing 318bhp being teamed up with an electric motor rustling up the equivalent of a further 87bhp.

Prices start at £56,105 for the S60 and £57,205 for the V60, while the top-end XC60 starts at £64,545.

The S60 saloon

Rover as a carmaker might be long gone, but new technology could be used to bring its classic models back

You could bring back any car from the dead with enough money

SUPPOSE, given the world’s top engineers, a highly sophisticated 3D printer and Britain’s nicest bank manager, you could bring back any car you wanted from the dead.

What would it be?

I’m not talking about taking the chic and cachet of a Sixties bestseller and then draping something that looks vaguely similar over a modern-day hatchback (take a bow, MINI and Fiat 500).

Nor am I suggesting you revive a revered old name from twentyor-so years ago, and then slap it hamfistedly along the rump of some apologetic, me-too Nissan Juke-alike (take a bow, Ford Puma). Nope, I’m talking about an actual old car design, put back into production – because it’s all the rage at the moment.

So far we’ve had the Jaguar XKSS, the Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato, the Porsche 911 Turbo and the supercharged ‘Blower ’ Bentley that won a string of Le Mans victories back in the 1920s.

Alvis are at it too and – if you value Q-branch gadgets over a car you can legally use on Britain’s roads – earlier this year Aston Martin was offeringGoldfinger-spec DB5s, complete with ejector seats and revolving number plates.

But I’m a bit baffled by a Chinese company’s decision to bring back the, erm, the Morris J-type van. Even at most classic car shows you have to look pretty hard to find one, and unless you remember growing up in a world best endorsed The Rank Foundation’sLook At Lifefilms then it’s unlikely this curious 1950s workhorse is going to press any nostalgia buttons, either.

I’m honestly struggling to think who’s going to want one, especially when the reinvented version, the JE, is set to be crafted out of McLaren-esque carbonfibre and powered by electricity. My best guess is that it’s going to appeal to artisan street vendors, happy to flog you a Frappuccino in a reusable cup at five pounds a pop – but we already have the Citroën H-van for that.

If we’re going to use all of our fancy 3D printing technology to bring back long-dead vehicles, why don’t we actually use them to bring cars that people like your mum and dad – as opposed to 1950s greengrocers – actually remember driving?

I would love to see a continuation Capri but I suspect Ford’s already had that idea, and would charge accordingly for it. Nope, I’m thinking of cars whose makers have long gone too – that’d be much more fun.

A brand-new Hillman Imp with Tesla-esque batteries (and performance) hidden behind its rear wheels? I’d be up for that. What about a revived Rover P5? Sign me up, and the same goes for anyone happy to bring back the Triumph TR6, Sunbeam Rapier or Riley Elf. Rich car nuts who can afford to chuck a million quid at a continuation D-type have had it their own way for too long. If the technology exists – and I’m sure we can all chip in for some lawyers to get past all the copyright wrangles – let’s have some more down-to-earth automotive revivals on our hands.

In fact, forget the J-type. Who’s up for bringing back the Morris Minor?

Burscough to pull out of Liverpool Competition BURSCOUGH are to withdraw from the Liverpool Cricket Competition and rejoin the Southport & District League for the 2020 season, writes Glenn Wallworth.

Club officials told the league committee due to the loss of fully committed playing members.

Their departure and the fact that S&DL champions Birkenhead St Mary’s have failed in their attempt to gain the required ECB Clubmark accreditation to join the LDCC, means bottom club Alder won’t now be relegated and next season’s Second Division will feature eleven not twelve clubs.

The statistical round up of the 2019 Liverpool & District Cricket Competition season comes to a conclusion this week with a look back at the leading players from our local Second Division sides, Burscough, Hightown St Mary’s, Maghull and Southport Trinity, writes Glenn Wallworth.

Leading the way with the bat for Burscough was Navdeep Aujla with 532 runs at an average of 48.36 and a highest score of 105*, followed by Ryan Hughes with 446 @ 27.88 HS 126, Jon Stone 436 @ 36.33 HS 100 and Brendan Domigan 280 @ 28.00 HS 97.

Whilst Aujla also topped the wicket takers with 30 @ 18.77 BB 6-53, followed by Hughes with 25 @ 24.00 BB 6-36 and Chris Andrews 24 @ 15.13. Kenny Hughes took 7 victims behind the stumps and in the outfield Alan

Murray took eight catches.

Over at Maghull it was Jon Ring who once again grabbed the batting honours with an incredible 789 runs @ 49.31 HS 165, followed by Anthony Molloy 416 @ 29.71 HS 103*, skipper Paul Walters 364 @24.27 HS 64, Declan Devine 299 @ 33.22 HS 102 and Joe Medew-Ewen 274 @ 17.13 HS 53.

Leading the way with the ball was Australian Medew-Ewen with 50 wickets @ 14.80 BB 6-23, followed by Cam Lawrenson 21 @ 14.86 BB 4-31 and Liam Gibbons 15 @ 22.60 BB 3-38. Behind the wickets Paul McKenna took 12 dismissals including eight stumpings, whilst in the outfield Ring claimed 9 catches.

Last but certainly not least is the most ducks list that nobody on it enjoys seeing, but I’ve been reliably informed that those not on it love to see, so leading way by a considerable margin is 2018 leader Angus Gailey (Southport & Birkdale) who topped last season’s seven with nine this year, whilst trailing in his wake with five each were Steve Gregory (Fleetwood Hesketh), Adam Phillips (Southport & Birkdale) and Anthony Molloy (Maghull), followed by four each from Joe Medew-Ewen (Maghull), Tommy Wareing (Fleetwood Hesketh) and Alec McLoughlin (Hightown St Mary’s), whilst there’s a list as long as a boundary rope of too many players to mention with three to their name.

Goals galore for uni sides!

THERE were two stand-out victories for Edge Hill University in the second week of the 2019/20 BUCS campaign.

The men’s rugby union side shut out University of Liverpool fourths 14-0 in their first match of the season. Alex Gaughan and Harry Deveney crossed, with the latter converting both tries, as the Beavers successfully withstood heavy second-half pressure.

The women’s firsts football team made it 17 goals from two league games as they crushed Manchester Met 12-4, with Ella Pemberton and Daisy Child again impressing.

The men’s firsts and seconds both secured a point apiece, the former drawing 3-3 with Liverpool John Moores seconds - Joby Patel (2) and Callum Burgess on target - while Lucas Bradley and Mike Roberts netted in the seconds’ 2-2 draw at Manchester Met thirds.

It was three wins from four in net-

ball. The firsts were 37-35 winners at Liverpool John Moores firsts, with Hollie Ticehurst and Hollly Owen impressing, while the seconds eased to a 57-25 win at Manchester Met fourths and the thirds won 42-27 at Liverpool Hope thirds.

In rugby league, Edge Hill firsts were edged out 12-10 at home to Leeds Beckett seconds while in tennis, the men’s and women’s teams claimed 3-3 draws.

The former saw Archie Dubbins earn the key victory in his rubber against UCLAN firsts while for the women, Elise Bond was on form against Leeds Beckett fourths.

Badminton delivered victory in the form of the men’s firsts, who ran out 7-1 winners against University of Liverpool seconds. Joint-captain Kieran Waters was victorious in both of his singles matches and his double rubber, in a dominant collective display.

Skem knocked out of cup despite battling display Skelmersdale United 1 Irlam 3 SKELMERSDALE United’s run in the Macron Cup ended on Friday night despite a battling performance against a strong Irlam side, writes Neil Leatherbarrow.

After Skem took a well deserved lead, their promotion chasing opponents had taken a 3-1 lead only 20 minutes later which was enough to snub out the Skem challenge despite plenty of pressure on the Irlam goal.

Skelmersdale had the best of the firsthalf and might well have taken the lead after a cross from the right side by Joel Joel Douglas goes between two defenders. Pictures by John Driscoll Douglas created havoc in the Irlam six close with shots, the latter bringing a yard box. It hit Irlam’s Danny Eyres in the good save out of keeper White, but shins, rebounded onto the foot of the post then on 54 minutes you can only say then luckily for the visitors straight into that the Skelmersdale defence went goalkeeper Lee White’s arms. to sleep. A fairly routine ball was Skem were doing well down the rightplayed to the edge of the penalty area hand side and it was the source of a few from the left and Nicholas ran off his dangerous looking balls into the Irlam marker and had time to turn on the goalmouth. ball, his shot was a good one and After hitting his own post earlier Eyres went just inside the post to make it 2brought a superb save out of 1 to Irlam.

Skelmersdale goalkeeper Ben Barnes at Skelmersdale went very close to the other end, his swift break down the equalising on 57 minutes when only a middle culminating in a vicious right-foot superb one handed diving save by shot from 20 yards that Barnes acrobaticWhite kept out a well struck shot by ally turned away for a corner.

Brodie, but again some hesitant It wasn’t a bad game at all and for defending by Skelmersdale cost them Skelmersdale supporters briefly it got dearly. A free-kick was played in from even better with four minutes to go Tom Croughan celebrates his goal the right, the near-post home defendbefore the interval. Just outside the pen- for Skem ers missed the ball and it ran to the far alty area Moore was clever enough to turn then toe-poke the ball through the Irlam defence, post, everyone was flat-footed except for Irlam’s Ledson; he Croughan again got on the end of the ball, after holding off ran onto the ball and won’t have had an easier finish this seadefender Andre Stewart, Croughan sent a right-foot shot into son to make it 3-1.

Skelmersdale could still have saved the game, Matt Coughthe net via the post, leaving keeper White no chance at all.

The Skem goal inspired the visitors and inside two minutes lin brought an excellent diving save from White with a freethey equalised. The ball was sent down the right-wing and kick that was going inside the post, then after getting in front was soon delivered across the face of the Skelmersdale goal; of White as they went for a cross Bafude Djabi saw a header Irlam number nine Connor Martin was able to slide the ball cleared off the line as Skelmersdale put the pressure on.

Moore had a shot saved at the second attempt by White, into the net from about four yards out.

Callum Nicholas of Irlam and Croughan of Skem both went then off a rebound Charlie Kelly hit the crossbar.

Linnets’ poor form continues after Ashton score five in rout Burscough 0 Ashton Athletic 5 BURSCOUGH’S poor form continued after a heavy defeat at home to Ashton Athletic in the Macron Cup. Ashton are only mid-table in the North-West Counties Premier Division and having struck right on the interval to hold a 1-0 advantage at the break, they hit four more in a nightmare second-half for the Linnets and were 4-0 up just after the hour mark.

Finally just to rub some salt into the wounds for the Burscough supporters the fifth goal came from former Linnets player Adam Gilchrist.

Both Burscough and Skelmersdale are away from home this weekend and both teams will be aiming for better results.

Skelmersdale are making a habit of playing Friday night fixtures recently and this weekend sees that trend continue when they play a first ever league game against Oldham-based AVRO (Friday, October 25).

Their hosts are famous for manufacturing Lancaster bombers but on the football front they are only four points ahead of Skelmersdale in the league table, so Skem will go with hope of bringing some points back with them and if they play as well as they did against promotion chasing Irlam that is quite possible.

Burscough play on Saturday, October 26, but they face a really tough task as they are away to league leaders 1874 Northwich.

The match is a top vs bottom clash in the form tables as 1874 have won five and drawn one of the their last

six games. Burscough have lost them all, so a bookmaker wouldn’t give Nick Matthews team much chance. Those Burscough supporters travelling are reminded that 1874 Northwich now play their home games at Barnton’s Townfield Lane ground. The kick off is 3pm.

Both teams have games in midweek next week. Skelmersdale will play Warrington based Rylands at Prescot on Tuesday, October 29. Kick off 7.45 pm.

On the same night, Burscough have a local derby away game when they take on Southport in the Liverpool Senior Cup. Although the Linnets came out of the hat first they have agreed to play the game at Haig Avenue, no doubt motivated by the opportunity to test out the £250,000 pitch the Sandgrounders laid in the summer.
