MP VOWS TO FIGHT ON FOR FUNDS TO REBUILD ‘CRUMBLING’ SCHOOL Council told by government it should have ‘robust plans’ in place to maintain the facility Report by Kenny Parker SEFTON Council has been told by the government that it should have “robust plans in place to manage school buildings effectively” following requests from MP Bill Esterson for funding to rebuild Lydate Primary School. The MP has promised to continue the fight to secure funding to rebuild the “crumbling” school on Lambshear Lane which had to close for a time in November last year over safety fears for pupils after pieces of concrete fell off the roof. Children had to have lessons at Maghull High which accommodated them until the school reopened in January following emergency repairs. Mr Esterson is calling on the government to spend £5million to rebuild the school saying the £650,000 earmarked by Sefton Council for refurbishment work was a “sticking plaster” and a “false economy.” He said the building is “crumbling” and so cold children have to wear their coats during lessons. Mr Esterson added: “There are leaks from the roof and concrete and plaster falling from walls and ceilings. This is completely unacceptable.

Lydiate Primary School.

“A huge £650,000 has been earmarked by Sefton Council to spend on a rewire and general refurbishment at the school, but this is just papering over the cracks and the ongoing maintenance costs risk eating up huge amounts of the school’s budget. “Spending money to make do and mend is just money down the drain. “The wiring needs to be replaced. Energy bills are absurdly high because of the poor insulation. “But all the repairs in the world are only delaying the inevitable. It needs a new build. Anything else is a false economy.” The Department for Education said Sefton Council received over £1.5m to invest in maintained schools during the financial year 2019–20, plus individual schools were allocated a total of £350,000 to spend

on their own capital priorities. The DfE also said that the Secretary of State has set out the capital funding routes currently available for the school and the department is in touch with Sefton Council about its condition. A spokesperson for the DfE said: “Sefton local authority has responsibility for keeping its school buildings in a safe condition and they receive an annual allocation to invest in this. “We expect all local authorities, governing bodies and academy trusts to have robust plans in place to manage school buildings effectively. “We have committed £23 billion to deliver new school places, rebuild or refurbish buildings in the worst condition and deliver thousands of condition projects across the school estate.”

Online dementia support group in memory of mum now has 18,000 followers Report by Tom Martin A MAN from Litherland who set up an online dementia support group in memory of his mum has gained more than 18,000 supporters from across the globe. James Dawson created the Vascular Dementia group on Facebook after his mum, Bernadette, passed away seven years ago after a battle with a condition known as Dementia with Lewy Bodies. The group initially gathered interest at a local level through his own friends and family, but it quickly spread to reach hundreds and then thousands of people across the UK and abroad. To date, there are currently more than 18,200 people who are getting regular updates from the group, which James' mum and dad, John and Bernadette includes advice and information on furand they share a lack of understanding of dementher specialist support. James told the Champion: “I think it's vital to tia. “I read people’s posts every day and advise when I bring together as many people as possible in the group because they may be at their wits’ end as they need to but with nearly 18,200 members most of the time the advice is already there. care for their loved ones.” “What I continue to see since I started the group is James began caring full time for his mum in 2011 and had to give up his job as a nursing assistant at people who are left devastated by both caring for their loved one or by having to put them in a care Aintree Hospital and move into his family home. He said: “It was a terrible time and there were home. “People still don’t know how to react when a loved some very difficult moments but I wanted to stay one is struck down and in 2020 I find that very with her. “I thank God I was a nursing assistant because it sad. “I’ll never forget caring for my mum when I see prepared me for the years I spent caring for my posts about people saying they care for a loved one mum and I did the best I could. “The group is as important to me today as it was but they’re totally drained. “Hopefully by offering a small piece of hope and back in 2014 because there are people desperate comfort they can get a better understanding and out there all over the world in need of help. “Our group has brought the entire world together share in the care of their loved one.”

Six year old litter picker was a special winner at Civic Awards

Man thought cannabis plants in garden were hemp and grew it as medication for his sick mum

‘All those nominated stepped up to help their community without being asked’

By our Court Reporter

Report by Jim Sharpe ONE very special award winner stole the show at the annual Maghull Civic Awards last Thursday and it was six-year-old William Perkins. Town Mayor, Councillor Josh Burns presented William with the Special Mayoral Award after he had received numerous nominations for tidying up KGV playing field after it had been the victim of litter louts. The Mayor told the packed audience in The Venue function suite at Maghull Town Hall: “This was a tremendously community-minded effort from a small boy who was worried that local wildlife - including his favourite hedgehogs - would be harmed.” He added: “It is important that local people are acknowledged and that these ‘good news’ stories are used to show the positive side of Maghull. “This year the categories reflect the wide range of good work that goes on within the community and that often go unsung, with people giving freely of their time and effort to help Maghull better for everyone. “They help make the town more appealing to those who live, work and visit as they help make protect and maintain our green spaces, support their vul- William Perkins receives his award from the Mayor of Maghull, Josh Burns in front of a packed audience, inset. nerable neighbours and deliver services.

St John Bosco thrilled to win athletics competition PUPILS from St John Bosco Catholic Primary School in Maghull have won a Primary Sports Hall Athletics Competition. Schools from Maghull, Litherland and Crosby took part in the track and field events at the contest on Friday, February 7 for youngsters from years five and six. Ten schools participated and teams consisted of eight boys and eight girls from each school. St John Bosco headteacher Danny MacAreavy said: “It was great to see the pupils encouraging each other in such a positive manner. The children were thrilled to win.”

A MAN From Maghull found growing 29 cannabis plants in his garden thought they were hemp, which he was growing to provide medication for his sick mother, a court has heard. Stephen Shearwood, 36, of Sankey Road, pleaded guilty to production of the class B drug and possession of cocaine when he appeared at Sefton Magistrate's Court on February 12. Amanda York prosecuting, said that police executed a search warrant at his home address on July 23 of last year.. Miss York said Shearwood told police he had been growing them for about three months to make an oil. However, he thought they were hemp plants, she said. “It was to give to his mum for her health,” she said, “She suffers from ME. He did not think it was illegal or he would not have done it, let alone in the garden.” His solicitor Mike Flynn repeated that he was growing the plants for his mother who is very ill and that there were a number of syringes with oil in them found in his home. Granting him unconditional bail and ordering a probation report, the magistrates adjourned for sentencing to Liverpool Magistrates Court on March 9. According to the Government website it is not illegal to grow hemp but a licence is required.

Drink driver caught for the second time A MAN from Lydiate has been caught drink driving for the second time. Peter Bell, 56, of Coronation Road, pleaded guilty before Sefton Magistrates on February 12. The court heard police stopped him while he was driving a Ford Mondeo on Liverpool Road South, Maghull, at 9pm on January 24. The officer then noticed a smell of alcohol and when he got out of the car he was noted to be stumbling. Mrs Blackmore told the court that Bell had a conviction for drink driving from 2007 when he was given a 32-month driving ban. Representing himself Bell said he had lost his mother and was receiving treatment for depression. Magistrates sentenced him to an eight-week 7pm to 7am curfew, made him pay £175 costs, and banned him from driving for 28 months.

Report by Henry James KINDNESS flowers were placed around a village following the death of television presenter Caroline Flack. The bouquets were left at various parts of Melling by staff at the Bootle Arms pub. The message on them encourages people to be kind to one another. Caroline Flack, who was most famous for presenting Love Island, took her own life earlier this month. She previously spoke of how she had suffered from depression. The bouquets read: “After the extremely sad news of Caroline Flack’s passing, regardless of personal views nobody should feel that was the only escape from a problem. “So we have shared some ‘kindness bouquets’ along with a positive message and a voucher for two free drinks. “Please keep the flowers if you enjoy them, give them to a stranger and make their day or give them to a loved one. “The voucher is to give people the opportunity to get out and talk. “Don’t suffer in silence and always be kind. Let’s make a difference.”

Hearing aid found in street

Dementia friendly film screening day out at Plaza cinema arranged

A RESIDENT wants to reunite a lost hearing aid with its owner. The item was found on Leighton Avenue on Saturday, February 22. If anyone thinks the hearing aid belongs to them, contact 0151 526 3471.

A ‘DEMENTIA friendly’ film screening programme has been launched at the Plaza community cinema in Waterloo which people in Maghull will be able to enjoy. Maghull Town Council, with Sefton CVS and Community Connectors, is funding a special afternoon outing on Thursday, March 20 to see The Merry Widow, a BAFTA award winning classic musical of 1952 starring Lana Turner.

And as with all good visits to the cinema, light refreshments and popcorn are included. Transport from Maghull Town Hall will pick up at noon, with a drop off after the curtain comes down at 6pm. The screening will take place in the Plaza’s Screen 1, newly restored to its Art Deco glory where the lighting will be maintained at a low level to suit the needs of the audience. Visitors will be supported by

Dementia Friends trained staff. Maghull Town Council community services manager Phil Dillon said: “This project gives dementia patients and their carers a chance to get out of the house and try something new. “This first visit to the Plaza will help us gauge the level of interest but certainly this does seem to be a fantastic idea.” To reserve a place contact robert.goux@seftoncvs.org.uk or phone 07860 848 344

Waterlogged fields ‘show development flood risk’ By Champion Reporter

CONCERNS over potential flood risks at a site of a major housing development in Maghull have been raised by a councillor after recent heavy rain left the area waterlogged. Lydiate parish councillor Tony Robertson visited the site known as ‘land east of Maghull’ last weekend where more than 1,800 homes are set to be built. He took photographs of the waterlogged development site and the area where the water drains into including Dovers Brook and the River Alt. He said: “I’m not surprised by this situation as our low-lying land has always been liable to flood after heavy rain. “Of course climate change is making those floods more regular than in the past. “What has not, in my opinion, been effectively resolved is how the floodwater is dealt with as flooding of Sefton Lane is far from unusual now. “What worries me is how the local drainage network is going to cope after a vast area of presently agricultural land is put under concrete. “The implications will not be just on that

site, if the drainage issues are not fully addressed, but potentially to the west of it to the River Alt which takes a great deal of Maghull’s surface water run-off. “The site will be developed as Sefton Council’s Local Plan has already designated it for building on but what guarantees are going to be put in place

that this building will not make a presently unresolved flooding problem even worse? “Sefton Council and the developers of the land have to get this right otherwise those of us who fought against the vast site being designated for building will be reminding the powers that be that they were warned about the consequences.”

Taxi driver delivered cocaine to pay off his debts from gambling Report by Lynda Roughley A DRUG dealing taxi driver from Crosby spotted behaving suspiciously was caught redhanded with drugs and almost ÂŁ2,000 cash. Adam Rice denied supplying to passengers but admitted delivering cocaine wraps to drug users to pay off his gambling debts. Jailing him for three years on Wednesday, February 19, Judge David Aubrey, QC, said, “You had a gambling addiction and you decided to gamble with your liberty in the hope you would not be apprehended. “The message must go out to all that if any taxi driver takes the decision to be involved in Class A controlled drugs and their supply, they will lose their liberty. “Inevitably a case such as this has an impact upon honest hard working taxi drivers who ply their legitimate trade. “You were plying an illegitimate trade of drug supplying, there must be a deterrence,â€? he said. Judge Aubrey sentenced 29-year-old Rice, of Chesterfield Road, to three years imprisonment. He had pleaded guilty to possessing cocaine with intent to supplying two offences of possessing cannabis. Derek Jones, prosecuting, told Liverpool Crown Court that on the evening of February 10 last year police saw Rice driving a Vauxhall Astra on Gorsey Lane, Litherland. A man got into the vehicle and it drove off but the man got out again after a short distance and the suspicious officers stopped Rice in nearby Pendle Drive. When the vehicle was searched they found 17 wraps of cocaine and ÂŁ1,900 cash. In the glove box they found two snap bags of cannabis bush and cannabis resin, cigarette papers and cannabis grinders. Rice admitted that he had been supplying drugs for two weeks and would get messages to deliver wraps to customers but did not supply passengers. Mark Phillips, defending, said Rice had been a taxi driver for four years. He had been given the 17 wraps earlier that day and would be telephoned telling him where to take them to. The cannabis in the car was for his own use. At the time he was sleeping on a couch at his mother ’s home and so had the cannabis and paraphernalia in his car as he had nowhere else to put them. “He is a decent young man and the offences spanned a short period of time. He is before the court for the first time,â€? said Mr Phillips, adding that Rice has already been punished in many ways.

Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram wants to bring bus services under local authority control.

especially early in the morning, late at night and at weekends, and too many people find the current system to be confusing, unreliable and expensive. This has to change.” The franchise model will mean bus companies will be contracted and paid to carry out services with fares going to the local authority. It will mean the authority can use money from the most profitable routes to subsidise the less profitable. Sefton Central MP Bill Esterson said the announcement was “hugely encouraging.” Mr Esterson said: “Deregulation of buses has failed. It has led to private companies focusing on the routes that make money, leaving many communities cut off or struggling with very infrequent inadequate services. “We have seen this problem in Melling, Aintree, Lydiate and Maghull where already inadequate services were cut further and in Ince Blundell which faces the potential loss of its service. “Under re-regulation those profits can be taken from the best routes and ploughed into the rest of the network, putting buses on later at night and earlier in the morning, and on less busy routes.”

BUS services in Merseyside could be franchised as part of a London-style public transport system for the city region, according to Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram. Franchising would mean operators would have to be licensed by the Combined Authority to operate specific routes, ending the current free-for-all. Mr Rotheram, who is running for re-election in May, admits however, that this would need “significant investment” well above the current £64million the Combined Authority currently spends each year on the city region’s bus network. Combined Authority papers just published recommend that bus franchising, is the “leading option” for the future of the city region’s bus network. Merseyside’s bus services were state run until 1986 when private companies were allowed to operate whatever services they wished on a profitable basis. The role of local government was restricted to subsidising “socially necessary” services. However, the concern for a long time has been that while the busiest routes are well served, some communities in Merseyside have big gaps in their public transport provision, putting residents at an economic and social disadvantage. The Metro Mayor says franchising would mean better bus services for areas currently isolated and poorly served under the current system. Mr Rotheram said: “Our communities rely on buses to connect them to work, education and training, family, hospitals and public services, but the current system is letting people down. “Buses don’t run at the times they need them,

Thinking of Moving House? Moving house, re-mortgaging or dealing with the sale of a property when handling a Probate matter can be a stressful process at the best of times. When choosing which solicitor to instruct to deal with the legal aspects of the transaction, you need to be confident that they can handle the matter professionally, efficiently and still provide a personal service. We have served the local community since the early 1800’s and have dealt with a huge variety of property transactions over the years. Our conveyancing team is one of the most experienced the area. We offer a high quality service and the Conveyancing Department at Dickinson Parker Hill was the first in Ormskirk to be awarded the Conveyancing Quality Scheme and was one of the first firms to be awarded this in the country. So many conveyancing firms no longer offer the type of service which we believe a quality, professional conveyancing service demands. We pride ourselves on providing a high quality service mixing new technology with old fashioned service and professionalism. Your matter will be handled by an experienced conveyancer, rather than just an automated computer system and you will be able to deal with the conveyancer handling your matter, from start to finish, rather than having your transaction handled by a large impersonal team of file handlers. Our offices are always open during normal office hours and you will receive a warm welcome should you require an appointment. Our team has a wide range of experience in all aspects of Conveyancing work including, sales, purchases, re-mortgages, new builds. Local Authority Right to Buy schemes, equity release mortgages and we also have experience in shared ownership properties. We can deal with Help to Buy Government Equity Schemes and of course

Help to Buy ISA’s. We are also able to give advice on Occupiers Consent and Deeds of Guarantee. Whilst we proudly serve our local area including Ormskirk, Southport and throughout Lancashire and Merseyside, we are also able to deal with conveyancing matters throughout England and Wales.

PROPERTY MATTERS

We can visit you at home if you are unable to call into the office and at the end of the conveyancing process we offer free storage for legal documents such as title deeds, Wills and Powers of Attorney. We can also provide advice in other areas of law including Family, Wills and Probate, Inheritance and Tax Planning, Lasting Powers of Attorney, Court of Protection matters, Employment, Accidents and Claims and a wide range of Commercial Law for business clients. We are also one of the few firms in the North West to offer the services of a Notary Public.

We all have our part to play in reducing flood risk

Junction redesign work has hardly improved traffic flow

I read with interest the Champion article by Jim Sharpe concerning flood risk and development. The Maghull Town Council leader put the blame for lack of attention in managing flood risk on current guidance being insufficiently robust. This may well be partly the case, but the answer is in the article. Sefton Council is the ‘Lead Local Flood Authority ’, so why does it allow planning applications with only 30% ‘headroom’ for climate change rather than the 40% required? Most of the urban areas of Sefton are designated ‘Critical Drainage Areas’ and, as such, any new development attached to the current housing areas should be shown to achieve a reduction in flood risk from the pre-development condition.

I write in shock at the amount of work that has gone into the junction on Fleetwood’s Lane and Edge Lane and no improvement has been made. I regularly come down the Brooms Cross road and come through the junction on my way home and it’s been so long to get that small section of work done. First they inserted the new lane to allow traffic to flow better then left it unfinished for sometime. Then weeks later they closed Edge Lane to start the works and cause weeks of upset and delays. What we have been left with is a reduction in traffic flow on Edge Lane, a

This cannot be the case if the above is correct. However, we all have our part to play. Every time there is a new house or house extension; every time someone extends their driveway or parking area; there is a potential increase in rainwater run-off to the sewers, increasing flood risk. Sefton Planning Policies and the Building Regulations are supposed to avoid this, but there are many developments locally where the council have failed to enforce their own policies, the building regulations or drainage designs consented at planning stage. Come on Sefton – shape up! Phil Hunter, Blundellsands.

picture of the week picture of the week picture of the week

huge pavement that sticks out for who knows what reason other than to hinder traffic flow, and a flow lane that allows some traffic to flow a little better. Given the amount of traffic that comes down Edge Lane and not Buckley Hill the design is a bit silly. Add on the fact that since the ‘rat run’ was closed off Moor Lane the congestion there is now worse than when it was before they put a spade in the ground. Some one has messed up! J Purcell, By email

Starmer not the man to rebuild the Labour Party I have read in the Champion that Bill Esterson MP is supporting Keir Starmer to be the next leader of the Labour Party. To be quite honest, none of Labour front bench members deserve to be the next leader of this party which was started by the working classes of this country. Mr Starmer was one of the people who was responsible for the Labour Party losing the last election. He was among the most passionate supporters of Remain in the shadow cabinet. He pushed the leadership towards reneging on it’s 2017 commitment to respect the referendum result and instead switched to campaigning for another vote. Mr Starmer has openly said that he may not follow the letter of the Labour manifesto if he becomes leader. This was something which he supported when it was being formulated and adopted. The Labour Party will have to be very careful who they vote for as their leader, as the party has already been cast out into the wilderness for far too long. Don’t let that wilderness turn into forever. You ignore the voting public at your peril. Labour have lost their way and need a better navigator than Mr Starmer.

Little progress except rubble

Cyclists on pavements Pupils need to put pedestrians at risk be supervised

For the past two weeks I’ve been away from Maghull and expected great progress on the nightmare traffic misery at the Liverpool Road/ Northway junction. There are now various piles of rubble which have been moved around the site, possibly for aesthetic reasons, but of actual progress there seems to be little evidence. Before I left on holiday I saw labour at the site, counting two men with shovels, two men with clipboards and a digger driver. If this project were in China, the job would be finished by now, and would probably have a couple of hospitals built on the site!

I am sure I am not the only person to feel intimidated and fearful of injury by cyclists who ride on pavements. They are usually older teenagers/ young males who ride at speed in a threatening manner and who seem very reluctant to ride on the road. Yes, roads are dangerous places but if they don't feel confident of their ability to join the traffic safely then they shouldn't be out on bikes. It’s not up to pedestrians to get out of their way. Pedestrians shouldn’t walk on the pavement in fear of serious injury by inconsiderate cyclists who are contra-

John H Miller, Lydiate

vening the Road Traffic Offenders Act of 1988 which states it is only children aged 12 years and under who are legally allowed to ride on the sidewalk/pavement. I do understand our police force is over-stretched but fear it’s only a matter of time before some unfortunate pedestrian is seriously injured. I wonder if the cyclists or parents of these cyclists involved have adequate insurance to cover claims against them?

Re: Recent letters about the amount of litter around Crosby. I live off Myers Road East, and we have to put up with some of the children who attend Sacred Heart lower school dropping litter when they are walking there and back to the higher school in Liverpool Road to attend some lessons at various times of the day unsupervised. Maybe to cut down on the amount of litter maybe the school could supervise them.

Two former Optisavers branches reopen under new ownership TWO opticians in south Sefton which were previously owned by Optisavers, have been taken over and former staff rehired. The branches of Optisavers on Liverpool Road, Crosby, and in Bootle’s Strand Shopping Centre, closed down last December after the company went into administration. The empty shop units have been taken over and are now called Crosby Village Eyecare and Bootle Eyecare. A spokesperson said: “All staff have been retained. They had other jobs but wanted to come back. “They had worked in the old company for many years so they are all good friends and loved their jobs and loved working in the communities of Bootle and Crosby. “Robert Deacon who was the ophthalmic optician in Crosby for the last 23 years and had obviously looked after patients’ eye care since

they were young children is also back at Crosby shop. “The customers have been calling in to say how happy they are to see shops open and all the staff who they were fond of back in place.”

Report by Henry James A STUDENT at Edge Hill University is to appear on a BBC documentary this Thursday (February 27) called The Truth About…Takeaways. In the programme, Marc Cox, eats takeaways for every meal over a period of a fortnight. The 21-year-old, who is from Crosby and is studying Psychology and Criminology, was one of 15 volunteers who had to eat two takeaways every day for two weeks, from a list of the nation’s biggest sellers, which included fish and chips, pizza, Indian and Marc Cox Chinese. Before and after, he was put through a number of tests - from blood sugar levels and body fat to gut bacteria, mental wellbeing and cognitive sharpness. The results, which will be shown on the programme, will reveal what takeaways are really doing to peoples’ bodies, and the shocking truth about the impact they can have on our brains. Following the programme Marc feared his gut

was going to ‘burst’, his mental health deteriorated and his face broke out in spots. He said: “I was mostly was really tired, and felt really lethargic and had such a lack of motivation. It was fine for the first few days but after a while I had trouble sleeping and I felt agitated.” The experiment was filmed as part of the BBC's The Truth About documentary series. This episode, The Truth About Takeaways will be presented by journalist Nikki Fox.

Charity concert at town hall

Money, not cards, make my world go round LET’S talk about money. Not how much or how little of the stuff you or I have, but what you can - or might be able - to do with it. For a start, perhaps someone can set me straight about how I fancy I must be misunderstanding about an app (how I hate that word) which enables you to persuade your central heating to switch itself on while you are on your way home. It means you will never again have to arrive at a freezing house which is good but it then claims that this can save you ‘up to’ £120 in electricity bills. How? OK, you don’t have to sit shivering while the heating gets to work, but surely the actual cost should, in fact, go up. The boiler switches itself on, say, an hour earlier than it otherwise would whether you’re there to suffer it or not? You would turn it off again at the same time surely? But back to money in general. The Bank of England has introduced a plastic £20 note. I hate these plastic things. I don’t know how much money I have lost by accidentally pulling out one of these slippery, nonfolding notes in £5 and £10 form. And I don’t want to find out by distributing the few £20s I have around the country every time I fumble into my pockets for the odd bit of change I might need. Incidentally, I had some experience of these plastic horrors long before they appeared here. Back in the early 1980s the Isle of Man had introduced horrid plastic 50p notes. But then I was only there for a few days in November so they were little more than curiosities. We’d never have those things in the UK, would we? Well, we didn’t, we had the far more sensible 50p piece and proper floppy notes of higher denominations. Far worse news came with the announcement of slippery £20 notes though. Apparently the Bank of England reckons that by the end of the decade only 10% of all transactions in shops will be by old fogies such as I - everyone else will be fiddling around with various cards. And whoever said cards would speed up your shopping never looked at what actually happens. Fumble for whichever card is likely to have money still on it, find it hasn’t, fumble for a better card, decide at the second go as to which way up it should be. Start up a conversation with the bloke or woman at the till and studiously ignore the increasing line of folk trying desperately to get their bags packed and get out of the store. Now I confess that I do use cards - sparingly. I buy my cigarettes (in hundreds) with my Barclaycard and more expensive items (such as fuel for my boat) with my switch card, but I am determined (God and the Grim Reaper willing) to be among the last, if not the very last person actually to buy my groceries with the coin and slippery plastic of the Realm. I believe too that some shops are refusing to accept cash. Well, quite apart from this meaning I would never use that emporium on principle even if it did sell cigs and diesel fuel, I honestly thought that it was illegal not to accept legal cash - though some companies such as EasyJet apparently have that rule. But since it clearly is not illegal so to do, then it damn well should be! Pity the folk who still do not have any credit cards - or perhaps have been refused one. Turn up at John Lennon Airport with your piggy bank full of 50p coins and you’re out of luck for your hoped-for flight to wherever.

A WIDE range of live music will be on offer at a charity concert to be held at Bootle Town Hall. The charity concert will take place in Bootle Town Hall on Saturday, March 21 at 7.45pm and money raised from the event will be donated to Zoe’s Place. Taking part in the concert will be the massed choirs of Liverpool Male Voice Choir, Aughton Male Voice Choir, the Queen’s Island Victoria Male Choir from Belfast and the Lydiate Concert Band. The guest conductor for the evening is Dr Alwyn Humphreys MBE from Wales. Guest soloist is Sarah-Jane Gibson, originally from South Africa but has been living in Northern Ireland while she completes a PHD in Choral Music at Queen’s University, Belfast. Tickets are available by calling 0151 526 4313. They are priced at £8.

Former Liverpool player and mental health advocate, Jason McAteer, with children already enrolled in the programme.

Liverpool FC charity to roll out mental health programme to schools Report by Tom Martin CHILDREN in Sefton schools will be taught how to recognise the signs of mental health issues, look at ways to improve the situation and where to go if they have concerns. Liverpool FC’s official charity, the LFC Foundation, has launched a new 12-week mental health project in partnership with Action for Children, which will be delivered in schools across Merseyside. Matt Parish, LFC Foundation director, said: “This new investment will allow us to expand our current mental health strategy and increase resources and provision across our programmes. “Research indicates that early intervention in chil-

dren’s mental health is really important so we know our new schools programme with Action for Children will provide essential knowledge and understanding of mental health, give children the confidence to talk about their feelings and equip them with coping strategies to support them.” Former Liverpool player and mental health advocate, Jason McAteer, added: “It’s great to see the Foundation investing more money and resource into mental health programmes and continuing its commitment to positively promoting mental wellbeing. “I’ve had the opportunity to see some of their fantastic work in action and see the difference it makes. “I have been very open about my personal struggles with mental health and I think it’s so important to continue an honest conversation about mental health to breakdown the stigma that is often attached to it.”

THE publicity told us that On Your Feet is the rags to riches life and love story of Emilio and Gloria Estefan and charts their journey from their origins in Cuba onto the streets of Miami and finally to international superstardom. Well that just about summed it up. There was a few sad parts, featuring scenes with Gloria’s dad, who suffered from multiple sclerosis soon after returning from the Vietnam War in 1968 and, of course, the accident that nearly ended in tragedy on the road when she was injured in a bus crash in March 1990. The accident, on a snow-covered Pennsylvania road, broke her back and resulted in surgery, but she bounced back with a comeback show at the American Music Awards in 1991. It’s rare even in a musical for the band to get a solo spot, but this happened at the end of this very lively event, and what a band they were, really getting into the spirit of the Cuban rhythms.

A scene from On Your Feet!

A large cast of more than 20 singers and dancers led by Philippa Stefani and George Ioannides as Gloria and Emilio brought the music to life with all the hits and with nearly 30 in the top 40 in the UK alone, there was plenty to choose from. Without doubt the music of Gloria and Emilio Estefan has led the way to the worldwide resurgence of Hispanic and Spanish styles of music and without the Miami Sound Machine, the world may have missed it. Much fun was added to the action with Karan Mann as Grandma Consuelo, who

was always on Gloria’s side pushing her to live the dream, as they moved from Cuba to Miami. With issues about immigration, family trauma and keeping a culture alive the show had more depth than at first you might think. With dancing in the aisles to finish off the first half, and plenty of arm waving from the very enthusiastic first night audience, this show will continue to pull in huge crowds on this nationwide tour. Star Rating. 9 out of 10. A very lively event.

MOTORS

Maybe the Rozzers don’t need to step in - is being utterly devoid of Gallic design flair exactly what D9 needs?

PERHAPS, in a police station somewhere in Paris, a theft’s been reported to La Gendarmerie. Clearly the top brass at DS are concerned – because someone’s run off with almost all of their trademark design details. That’s the only conclusion I can come to having flicked through all the finer details of the new DS 9 – a new, 5-Series-rivalling saloon from Citroën’s high-end sister brand. It’s a big, plushly-trimmed luxury barge from the nation that brought you the Citroën XM (chiefly known for its out-there looks and wafty suspension), the Peugeot 604 and the Renault 25. It’s practically written into the constitution of the Fifth Republic that the President of France must step out of a four-door saloon that rides like it’s been draped over a water bed, and looks like it’s nicked straight out of The Louvre. Yet the new car looks…well, it looks like an Audi A6. Just about the only really avantgarde bit of styling I can find is that they’ve stuck the indicators at the top of the rear window, in a neat homage to the original Citroën DS of the 1950s – but where are the rear wheel spats and the floating roofline and the obsessively aerodynamic shape? I can only assume they’ve been taken from the DS design office, and that Liam Neeson, once he’s finished his surly-sounding phone call, is going to fly over to recover them. Even the name isn’t quite right – I know it’s convention for DS to simply assign its models a number, but stick DS 9 into Google and you’ll be treated to some fictional Nineties spacefarers – but once you get over that and the fact it looks like a Macron-spec Audi or BMW this looks like it’s going to be a genuinely decent bit of kit.

For all its Audi-esque design details, our man hopes the new DS 9 will be a hit here

It’ll be offered primarily as a plug-in hybrid, initially in 225bhp but then with a thumping combination of petrol engines and electric batteries serving up the equivalent of 360bhp – and for anyone who remembers older French cars being a bit too wayward on account of sending all their shove to the front wheels, it’s worth bearing in mind that the more powerful versions of the DS 9 will have four-wheel-drive. But the secret’s going to be in whether DS remem-

bers one of two areas where France’s big saloons lead the world – being more comfortable, by miles, than anything BMW, Audi or Mercedes can muster. The new arrival’s equipped with a camera that scans the road ahead for sores and imperfections, and then prepares the dampers accordingly. Combine that with seats that are heated, cooled and massaged by each of their individual occupants, and I reckon this is something any self-respecting French cabinet minister is going to want to waft to

Charles De Gaulle in. The question is – will the rest of us? The other area where French saloons lead the world is trailing the Germans spectacularly in the showrooms, as the old Citroën C6 (and before that, the XM) proved. Maybe the French rozzers won’t need to step in – perhaps being utterly devoid of Gallic design flair is exactly what this new arrival needs. David Simister is the editor of Classic Car Weekly

You can now make the Honda Civic Type R more understated - or do just the opposite

Would you like the go-faster thrills of Honda’s Civic Type R without the aggressive styling? FANCY the go-faster thrills of Honda’s Civic Type R but not its aggressive styling? Now you can, with a new model, the Sport, which tones down the car’s looks and lowers the height of the rear spoiler.

There’s also a new stripped-out version too, the Limited Edition, which goes the other way with the use of lighter components and reworked cosmetic details. Both of these new arrivals, and the standard Type R, are also now

available with a new computer system that logs how the car’s performing and how you’re driving it. Go to www.honda.co.uk to find out more about the expanded Type R range.

Bucks bolster strikeforce

BOOTLE manager Joe Doran has bolstered his attacking options by signing James Hooper from Airbus, writes Connor O’Neill. The forward has also represented Flint Town and Maghull in the past and the Champion understands that Doran has been looking to add to his squad for a few weeks. The bucks started the month in second place in the North West Counties Premier Division, but have lost two of their last three league matches and now sit third in the table, four points behind second placed Rylands with three games in hand with 1874 Northwich four points clear at the top. Doran has just over a month remaining to add new faces to his squad for the run-in before the non-league transfer window shuts. The Bucks saw their game with Irlam called off on Saturday and are expected to return to action on Tuesday night against Northwich Victoria, before they face Skelmersdale United at JMO Sports Park on Saturday.

Remyca earn a vital point to boost their survival bid Rylands 1 Litherland Remyca 1 REMYCA earned a vital point in their battle for survival after a battling performance against in-form Rylands. A brilliant finish from James Law in the second half brought the scores level, after Gary Kenny had put the home team ahead in the 26th minute. The result sees Remyca close the gap on 19th place Hanley Town, who lost to Runcorn Town. The wind made the game end to end throughout the day and Rylands had the first opportunity on goal in the fourth minute when Stephen Wolhunter received the ball off a clearance from a corner and the defender’s speculative 25-yard shot went just wide of the post. Rylands then tried an outrageous attempt at goal when Callum Lees received the ball high in the air after a scramble in the box and attempted an overhead kick that perhaps could have gone in on a day with different weather conditions. The home team broke the deadlock on 26 minutes when Kenny took advantage of the wind after two successive corners and saw his header cruise into the bottom of Josh O'Connell’s net. Minutes later and it should have been all square. after Remyca had a succession of corners and White threw himself at the ball and some brilliant defending by the home side saw them clear the shot off the line. Remyca were straight out of the blocks in the second half and made the game 1-1 on 51 minutes. Law, Litherland's top goal scorer, was picked out brilliantly by Speed. His pass split apart the defence and played through the Remyca winger. Law then took the ball past his marker and placed his shot into the bottom left corner. It was a brilliant goal from the young player, who is constantly proving to be a threat on the wing. There were more chances for Litherland and Donnelly, had a shot well saved by Michael Emery. Two minutes later the keeper had pulled off another good save after Law cut into the box andstruck a wonderful shot high towards the near post and Emery just managed to push the shot with his fingertips against the bar. Litherland pressed but could not find the winner.

Marine made to pay for poor second half Trafford 2 Marine 0

A SLUGGISH second half showing from Marine condemned them to defeat after goals from Curtis Miller and Max Hazeldine gave Trafford victory, writes Tom Clarke. The Mariners had the better of their hosts in the first half, as George Hassall fashioned several chances in the opening minutes but couldn’t find a way past home stopper Matt Cooper. Dan Atherton was called into action shortly before the half-hour mark, though, producing an excellent save to prevent Trafford from opening the scoring on the counter. Marine’s best chance of the half came on that half-hour mark, captain Niall Cummins striking the crossbar from a Jordan Lussey corner before a goalmouth scramble. Cooper was called into action again on the stroke of half time, Josh Solomon-Davies testing him from the edge of the box on the right-back’s left foot. Manager Neil Young made a couple of changes early in the second half, James Barrigan and debutant Morecambe loanee Michael Howard coming on for Neil Kengni and Hassall respectively. Trafford grabbed control of the game in the second period, with another good save from Atherton as well as a last-ditch block from Anthony Miley keeping the scores level early on. Mark Howarth saw several long-range efforts just wide of the mark, before Miller took advantage for Trafford to put the hosts ahead with an impressive

Max Hazeldine scores the second for Trafford

goal from distance in the 75th minute. James Devine entered the fray in place of Lussey late on in the game before Trafford bagged their second through Max Hazeldine on 81 minutes. Cummins glanced a corner wide before Steve

Irwin had to leave the field of play with an injury shortly before full time. Marine remain in third place in the league despite the defeat, and will look to bounce back at home to Droylsden this Saturday.

Club to hold reunion event for past players as part of 125th anniversary celebrations FORMER players of Marine FC have been invited to attend a reunion event at the Marine Travel Arena. The event, to be held on Friday, March 27, will be held as part of the Crosby club’s 125th anniversary celebrations. The reunion is open to all past players who played for Marine either in the Lancashire Combination, Cheshire League or the Northern Premier League. Tickets for the event are £10 and can be ordered by emailing

Secretary Richard Cross at richard@marinefc.com or bought from him at home games. Hot food is to be served and the event is to be hosted by Peter McCormack, Chairman Paul Leary and former Club President Dave Wotherspoon. The event is to start at 8pm. Marine chairman Paul Leary said: “It has been a remarkable 125th anniversary season following the successes of the 125 dinner, the launch of the book,

the introduction of the black and gold shirts, the reunion with Dulwich Hamlet FC, not forgetting the new logo and numerous other 125 items specially designed and made for this season. “The players reunion is the last event planned as part of our 125th anniversary celebrations for our football club. “It is a great opportunity for many of the hundreds of past players, back to the 1960s in the days of the Lancashire Combina-

Maghull match off AFTER the postponement of last Saturday’s matches Maghull will be hoping to return to action next weekend. The First team resume with a home game against reigning champions Newton whilst the Reserves have a rearranged Second Division encounter at Rainhill Town Reserves. Both games kick off 3pm.

tion, in the Cheshire League in the 1970s and latterly in the Northern Premier League, to meet up again to share fond memories of their playing days. “I have no doubt that this event will be sold out quickly so I appeal for past players to buy their tickets early to avoid disappointment by contacting our Secretary Richard Cross. “It will be a great evening for our fans too who will have an opportunity to see their heroes again.”

Twins impress TWO Firwood Waterloo U18 Players helped England North U18 to a comprehensive 41-10 victory of the South West on Sunday, February 23 at Warwick School. Keir Gordon scored two tries while his twin brother Finn also made good contributions in an encouraging performance from both players. Firwood Waterloo were without a match on Saturday and are set to return to action at the weekend with a visit to Altrincham Kersal.

Finn and Keir Gordon.
