Hairy Biker revs up for Flower Show!

HAIRY Biker Dave Myers is set to ride into this summer’s Southport Flower Show.

The celebrity chef - famous for riding a motorbike - will be revving up some of his favourite summertime recipes when he appears in the cookery theatre on Sunday, August 18. He is known to millions of TV viewers for his two-wheeled culinary tours of the globe as one half of the Hairy Bikers.

Along with his co-presenter Si King, Dave has fronted over 30 top-rated TV series, hosted Saturday Kitchen and appeared on a number of prime time shows including This Morning, The One Show and Lorraine.

As well as being a regular feature on cookery shows, Dave has also participated in a number of game shows including Celebrity Mastermind which he won. He was also a contestant on 2013 Strictly Come Dancing.

The Hairy Bikers have also published more than 20 cookery books during a career spanning more than 20 years.

Dave and Si have recently been filming their latest TV series in the USA - The Hairy Bikers Ride Route 66 - which will be screened on BBC Two later in the year.

But Lancashire-born Dave will be much closer to home when he heads to Southport, where he often used to holiday as a child.

Dave Myers

Southport Flower Show is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year with one of the biggest garden parties in Britain and Dave will join the fun in the cookery theatre.

He said: “I’m really looking forward to my first Southport Flower Show in August.

“It’s slap bang in the middle of British BBQ season so I’ll be demonstrating some of the best ways to cook fresh and tasty summery dishes.”

Council wants to recruit more lollipop people

CQC says disabled youngsters and parents are ‘still being let down’ after re-inspection of borough’s special educational needs service

WE’RE DEEPLY SORRY SAYS HEALTH CHIEF

AN urgent review has been ordered into why a joint service run by Sefton Council and local NHS commissioners to meet special educational needs and disability provision in the borough, has failed to deliver.

‘Significant weaknesses’ in the service - known as SEND were uncovered during a visit by the Care Quality Commission back in November 2016.

But when CQC inspectors revisited Sefton in April of this year to check whether ‘sufficient progress’ had been made in addressing concerns, they found little improvement.

In a damning letter to the local authority and Sefton’s clinical commissioning groups,

the CQC said disabled youngsters and their families ‘are still being let down’.

They hit out at SEND bosses for ‘failing to secure improvements since the 2016 inspection,’ claiming provision has ‘worsened’.

The letter cited inadequacies in the leadership of health services and commissioning and said ‘the partnership has not held leaders in health sufficiently to account for actions’.

“Parents,” inspectors said, “have understandably and inevitably lost trust in the local area” adding, “the inability to improve provision means that the children with SEND and their families continue to be let down.”

It will now be up to the Department for Education and NHS England to decide what steps to take next in view of the lack of progress made in alleviating inspectors’ con-

cerns. It could even result in the Secretary of State using ‘powers of intervention’ to address the issues raised by the CQC. Both the local authority and the clinical commissioning groups moved to reassure residents that an ‘action plan’ was being worked on to address the concerns raised by the CQC, admitting ‘there is still much more work that needs to be done’.

Fiona Taylor, chief officer for Sefton’s two clinical commissioning groups, said the CCGs are ‘deeply sorry’ and ‘accept’ the shortcomings that inspectors found. l Full report on page 5 of this week’s Champion

Champion reader John Bond, from High Park said: “The Arriva service 46a, which already has a restricted service. If axed, it will isolate pensioners who will hate the 5-10 minute walk in the rain and ice in the winter to access the 46.”

Another High Park resident, Karen Jones, added: “It’s all well and good saying it’s just a five-minute walk but it's doubling the time I need to set aside and it’s another way that the bus companies are putting their customers’ needs behind their greed.”

A spokesperson for Arriva said: “People living and working in Sefton are being asked their thoughts on bus services.

Their responses will help shape the future of travel in Sefton.

“Some services share a route and use common roads in particular the 46 and 46a services. In order to increase reliability, the 46a will be removed from service and the 46 will increase to a 20-minute frequency, meaning some customers may need to use a nearby bus stop, approximately a 5 minute walk from current bus stop. Information about the full review can be found at merseytravel.gov.uk.”

Norwood Ward Councillor Carran Waterfield said: “I'd urge as many residents as possible to look into the proposed changes and make their views known on this issue. These routes are often a vital lifeline for people and Southport has already seen services being restricted by Arriva. Residents can also contact me about any issues."

Norwood Ward Cllr Mhairi Doyle added: “The consultation closes by 5pm on June 24, so we’d urge anyone affected to contribute to it.”

Campaign to tidy up ‘neglected’ rail approach into town gathers steam Work underway to rid resort of ‘embarrassment’

by Danielle Thompson PLANS to transform the ‘embarrassing’ rail approach to Southport Station are on track, according to campaigners.

Christine McGregor, a founding member of Southport Rail Transport Forum and the chair of Southport Station Improvement Project, has been behind efforts to encourage Network Rail to clean up the neglected land which ‘greets’ rail passengers as they head into the resort.

She revealed that the approach by train into Southport Station was described as ‘the worst in the UK’ in 2015 by one of the southern rail franchise bidders who was visiting Southport.

But work is now underway to clear rail debris and remove unsightly overgrowth.

Christine told the Champion: “Regular rail commuters and visitors to Southport will know that the track-side approach to Southport Station has long been a source of embarrassment and disgust due to many years of neglect.

“However, persistent and constructive engagement by Southport Station Improvement Project (SSIP) with the support of Southport Rail Transport Forum, Sefton Council and Southport BID, has finally resulted in positive action.

“Although parts of the track close to St Lukes Bridge are a ‘work in progress’ Network Rail bosses have stood by promises they made during two site meetings in November 2018 and May this year to clean up the rail debris and remove the ‘buddleia blight' in time for the summer events season.

“Network Rail has also confirmed their willingness to revisit the maintenance programme later this year in advance of the Southport Air and Flower shows.!

The campaign groups are also calling on Merseytravel and Merseyrail to install a rail side waiting room at the station to protect passengers from harsh weather, and for renovations to the Victorian wall adjacent to Platform 1.

But their biggest challenge, they say, is to achieve a ‘significant up-grade’ to the sta-

The rail approach has been improved

tion’s retail arcade. Christine added: “All who pass by on Chapel Street, or through the station retail arcade will be acutely aware of its grim, uninviting interior, exacerbated by significant amounts of water seeping almost continuously through the light wells onto the arcade floor and paving under the station canopy.

“The private owners of the arcade, whose representative has attended SSIP meetings have given assurances to SSIP and the frustrated retailers that the arcade will receive the promised upgrade

once the sources of the leaks have been identified and resolved.

“The station is a vital gateway, through which thousands of people pass everyday into the town centre and not only do the leaks present a real hazard, the state of the retail arcade risks deterring much needed 21st century investment into Southport.

“The SSIP will continue, in collaboration with the major rail stakeholders and support from Sefton Council, Southport BID and SRTF to deliver our key objectives.”

Cyclists urged to get back in the saddle with refresher sessions FREE refresher sessions will be held in Ainsdale to help cyclists rediscover their love of the saddle.

To mark Sefton Council’s Year Of Friendship, the local authority’s Highways Safety Team are holding bespoke ‘Back In The Saddle’ rides for those who want to rediscover their confidence on two wheels as part of a friendly group.

Those looking to get a handle on their cycling skills will join like-minded others at MeCycle cafe in Station Road on Fridays before 10am to bike in confidence with the aim of improving overall skill and ability. The sessions will run every week throughout the summer holidays.

John Fairclough, Sefton Council's Cabinet Member for Locality Services, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone over the age of 16 to have a wealth of help and support to find their way back into the

saddle. The best thing about our courses is you won't be alone and it's great to be around like-minded others who share the same fears, abilities and difficulties but still want to learn and want to be able to ride.

“Sefton is a fantastic borough for cyclists and boasts an incredible cycle route that encompasses our coastline which will make a beautiful victory lap for our Back In The Saddle graduates.

“This is a wonderful initiative which ties in perfectly with our ongoing Year Of Friendship campaign to bring people together throughout our borough.”

No booking is required for the Back In The Saddle events, simply turn up with your own equipment. If you need to borrow a bike or helmet, please contact MeCycle Ainsdale ahead of time via 01704 579353.

Playboy financier who stole £4m is ordered to pay back just £1,015

Sites with the potential for new homes

By our Court Reporter

Do you know of any vacant land or buildings that may be suitable for redevelopment or conversion for homes? Are you aware of any unused land in your neighbourhood that would benefit from a new use?

Sefton Council are carrying out a study to assess how much land is suitable and available for housing development in its area. We are particularly interested in previously developed sites (i.e. brownfield land) and vacant land and buildings in our towns and villages.

We are happy to consider all sites, whether you are the owner or not.

A FINANCIAL advisor whose dishonest playboy lifestyle involved stealing more than £4 million has been ordered to pay back just a paltry £1,015.

Neil Bartlett blew the cash he stole from his trusting clients on online gambling, luxury holidays and Russian prostitutes.

Bartlett, 54, persuaded the investors, which included his parents, children and close friends he had known for decades, to hand over their life savings and pension pots by promising good returns on their money.

He even set up fake bank accounts and forged investment statements to trick them into thinking their cash was growing.

But in reality he was gambling away their money in high risk stocks and shares and using it to fund his penchant for foreign prostitutes.

After his world of lies came tumbling down he fled to Russia but was arrested at Manchester Airport last November after fly-

Whilst all sites may not be considered suitable for new homes, if we can use our brownfield sites more efficiently it will help protect our more valuable open and green spaces.

If you know of any sites you can submit them for consideration at www.sefton.gov.uk/callforsites or by post to: Call for Sites, Planning Department, Magdalen House, Trinity Road, Bootle L20 3NJ. Submissions should be received by the Council by Friday 2 August 2019.

ing home when his money ran out.

He was jailed for eight years the following month after admitting 14 fraud offences between October 2013 and August 2018. He had 14 similar offences taken into consideration.

Sentencing him Judge Alan Conrad, QC, said Bartlett had lived the ‘life of a millionaire on the hard earned savings of decent people - gambling away a large

part of the money entrusted to him, while maintaining a playboy lifestyle with expensive prostitutes and luxury foreign travel’.

The father-of-two from Ainsdale, was due to return to Liverpool Crown Court for a proceeds of crime hearing but he refused to attend.

An out-of-court agreement, which he had sanctioned, was approved by Judge Brian Cummings QC in Bartlett’s absence.

Philip Astbury, prosecuting, said that the total amount stolen in the 28 offences was £4,148,675.

He said that there was equity in the marital home in Delamere Road but Bartlett’s former employers had a restriction on it so the only realisable asset was the £1,015 found on him when he returned to the UK and surrendered.

Approving the agreement Judge Cummings said that the realisable asset figure was “a much lesser sum, I’m afraid. I very much regret there is so little available but there it is.”

He ordered that Bartlett must pay the money within two months or face an extra six months in prison.

Second CQC inspection blasts Council and local NHS providers over SEND (special educational needs and disability) provision in borough

Disabled youngsters and families in Sefton ‘still being let down’ Report by Danielle Thompson HEALTH commissioners in Sefton claim they are taking ‘'immediate action’ after a re-inspection of services for disabled youngsters found ‘sufficient progress had not been made’ to improve the ‘serious weaknesses’ identified on a previous visit.

An initial inspection of commissioning arrangements and services for children and young people with SEND (special educational needs and disability) was carried out by Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in November 2016, which found ‘areas of serious weaknesses.’

Inspectors spoke with children and young people with SEND again in April this year, their parents and carers, and representatives from Sefton Council, the borough’s two CCGs and local service providers.

The inspectors found that local area leaders had not made sufficient progress to improve each of the serious weaknesses from the initial inspection.

These include working together with parents and carers, particularly in designing their child’s individual care and support; timely and high quality education and healthcare plans that are monitored to make sure they are working for children and young people; waiting times and the quality of some health services and joint commissioning arrangements between the local NHS and Sefton.

The CQC inspectors’ letter, which was addressed to Dwayne Johnson, Sefton Council’s recently appointed chief executive, but who was Sefton Council’s director of Social Care and health, Sefton Children’s Services, said that the ‘inability to improve provision means that the children with SEND and their families continue to be let down’.

It read: “Frontline staff recognise the inadequacy of the current process and are keen to contribute and participate but are frustrated by the lack of change and improvement.

“There continues to be a glaring lack of leadership of SEND within health services across Sefton.

“Parents have little confidence in the

‘The partnership has not held leaders in health sufficiently to account for actions’ local area and regularly have calls and emails unanswered.

“Despite being identified as a weakness in November 2016, the waiting times to access health services such as speech and language therapy, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, autism spectrum disorder diagnostic assessment and community paediatrics have all worsened since then.

“While recognising the significant challenges that the local area leaders have faced, they have failed to secure the improvements in SEND provision across Sefton since the time of the November 2016 inspection. As illustrated, provision has worsened.

“The partnership has not developed

robust governance and accountability arrangements. Inadequacies in the leadership of health services and commissioning are well evidenced and the responsibility for this is not the local authority’s.

“The partnership has not held leaders in health sufficiently to account for actions.

“The inability to improve provision means children with SEND and their families continue to be let down.

“As leaders of the local area have not made sufficient progress against any of the weaknesses identified in the written statement, it is for the Department for Education and NHS England to decide the next steps. This may include the Secretary of State using his powers of intervention.”

Dukes Ward MP John Pugh commented: “This is an area where the Council needs to get it right as it effects the life chances of some very vulnerable individuals.

“The slow rate of improvements may not be a major problem for the Council but the impact on already anxious families is considerable.”

Call for more lollipop people!

LOLLIPOP men and women are needed by Sefton Council to help run school crossing patrols across the borough.

The local authority's School Crossing Service wants to recruit parents, carers, school staff or anyone who may have a few hours to spare each week.

The school crossing patrols are there to provide a safe passage across the road at a designated site mainly outside or near schools.

They operate at the start and end of each school day, mostly between 8 – 9am and 3 – 4pm, term time only.

“Since the last Inspection in November 2016, the Council has seen improvements to educational attainment, which school leaders have been positive about, but recognises that more work needs to be done in some areas, particularly maths and reading at key stage 2.”

Councillor John Joseph Kelly, Cabinet Member for Schools and Families, added: “The revisit has clearly highlighted that agencies need to significantly improve outcomes for children and young people and support parents and carers through better joint working, transparency, and ensuring more robust systems are in place to hold the health system to account.

“Whilst the report recognises the early steps taken to make improvements, it highlights that there is still much more work that needs to be done.

‘Our action plan will bring about improvements needed’ REACTING to the damning report, a spokesperson for Sefton Council issued the following statement: “The development of an action plan is already being developed following the Ofsted and Care Quality Commission review that says the local area’s provision needs work to ensure it meets the needs of children, young people and families and the Council recognises that the partnership needs to hold leaders in health to account for actions.

“Health partners and the Council have committed to transforming service provision.

“Where it has the power to do so, the Council has agreed to additional investment, with more staffing resources, improvements to information and advice, and will take the lead role in holding all parties in the local system to account.

“The Council has been working closely with the Sefton Parent and Carers Forum and the inspection highlighted some good examples of where this has been effective, including

A RAIL operator is searching for the families of three soldiers from Southport whose names appear on a long-lost war memorial which has been ‘lovingly restored’ Northern rail wants to invite them to the official unveiling of the memorial later this month at Newton Heath train maintenance depot.

The company wants to trace the relatives of 116 railway workers from across the country who made the supreme sacrifice during the First World War, and whose names are carefully listed on the monument which will be re-housed at Newton Heath on Friday, June 28.

Those based at Southport Railway Station are named on the memoiral list as:’ J. Aughton of the 6th Royal I’ (believed to stand for Infantry); ‘L/Cpl T. Marsden of the 17th King's L'pool’ (believed to be Regiment); ‘W.E. Rimmer of the 2nd Middlesex’ (believed to be Regiment)’.

The unveiling will coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Treaty of Versailles, which brought an end to the First World War – and will give all the chance to see the restoration which has been carried out by A.G. Podmore and Sons of York and funded by the Railway Heritage Trust.

At the outbreak of war, in 1914, the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway company had a 37,000 strong workforce. More than 10,000 volunteered for the armed services and 1,422 lost their lives.

As happened all over Europe, when peace finally came, and the soldiers returned to work, the Lan-

cashire and Yorkshire’s carriage and wagon department created a war memorial, immortalising their fallen comrades, as well as recording the names of all those in the department who served.

The memorial was moved from Newton Heath Carriage Works when it closed and was taken to Newton Heath Town Hall where it stayed until the building was demolished. Many years later, parts of the memorial were found in the undercroft of Manchester Piccadilly and were subsequently held

by East Lancashire Railway for safe-keeping.

Chris Jackson, regional director at Northern, said: “As a mark of respect to those from the railway family who served in the Great War, the memorial is back where it belongs at Newton Heath.

“We would be delighted to welcome the families of those on the memorial to attend the special event at the end of June and are calling on anyone with information to get in touch on 0800 200 6060.”

Iceland staff warm to task of clearing litter from beach Volunteers get to grips with clean-up mission Report by Danielle Thompson BEACH clean volunteers raised £1,000 for charity while also helping to rid Southport's sands of litter.

A group of 50 environmentally-conscious residents, mainly employees from Iceland Food and their family and friends, met for the clean-up mission at Ainsdale beach earlier this month.

It was organised by Iceland Foods’ area manager, Jay Wilman and store manager Richard Elliott and was carried out as part of the retailer’s two-year partnership with Surfers Against Sewage to help create plastic free communities.

As well as hoping to improve the beach, the group used the event to support Alzheimer's Research UK, which is the official charity partner for Iceland Foods. Many of the team were sponsored for their cleaning efforts and they also helped to boost their funds by holding a raffle and a barbecue, with all the food and drinks donated by Iceland Foods.

Louise Woodward, an Iceland Foods employee who was part of the beach clean, said: “We all had such a great day – even if the weather wasn’t the

best! It felt so good to be able to do our bit for the environment, especially as we were able to get our children involved too and show them why it’s important to look after our community.

“What’s more, we were able to raise money for Alzheimer's Research UK. It’s such a vital cause. We hear from so many of our customers who have been affected by dementia and it’s so sad. We must do all we can to find a way to prevent and hopefully find a cure for dementia.”

Felicity James from Alzheimer's Research UK added: “What a fantastic way to make a difference to our environment and raise money for life-changing dementia research.

“We’re incredibly grateful to the group for their brilliant support and we’re glad they had such a good time on the day.

“The money raised by the team will help Alzheimer's Research UK to find a much-needed cure for dementia. More than half of us know someone living with the condition, so we must do everything we can to put a stop to the heartbreak it causes.

“With the support of companies like Iceland Foods and their amazing employees, we will be able to make breakthroughs possible.”

Plan to build house on sand dune sets ‘dangerous precedent’ say opponents of Hightown scheme A PLAN to build a house within a large garden in Hightown has sparked concern with two separate petitions gathering nearly 60 signatures against the idea.

Concerned residents claim the land being used for the twostorey home, is on sand dunes and the proposed development ‘creates a dangerous precedent’ with developers now free to target similar patches of sand in other areas of Sefton.

The proposal was approved earlier this month at Sefton Council Planning Committee despite objectors describing the plot as ‘untouched dune land’.

One resident who contacted the Champion said: “The application involves a new build house being built into the sand dunes in the Hightown dune belt. The proposed build site is in prime territory for endangered species such as sand-lizards, common lizards and the Natterjack toad all of which are protected under UK law.

“Sefton Council has spent millions of pounds building sea defences along the Sefton coast which is subject to severe erosion. This development will set a very dangerous precedent

The proposed new house

for further development of the sand-dunes in places like Formby, Birkdale and Southport.”

The planning application for the construction of the modern new-build house states: “The area is a raised sand dune which dips into a natural valley with trees to either side.

“The dwelling is boldly contemporary in terms of its design but works efficiently within the boundary and constraints of the site to create a subtle form sit-

ting well within the existing landscape.”

The planning application also states how the design of the home will incorporate features of the nearby beach: “The proposal does not want to stand out in the landscape but rather bed itself into its environment literally sinking into the landscape.

The use of corten steel for the small widow bays and the roof top study reflect ship building and Anthony Gormley statues nearby.”

Man charged with string of burglaries A MAN has been arrested in connection with burglaries in Southport and Formby.

Merseyside Police revealed last week that Dean Kane, 26, of Westminster Road, in Kirkdale, had been arrested and charged in connection to five counts of burglary in Sefton.

This includes the burglary of Flames kebab shop, on Brows, in Formby, last month when

cash was taken, as well as attempted burglaries at Big Al’s Diner and Tiger Bar, both in Southport.

Kane has also been accused of breaking into Bootle's YMCA in May, when volunteers were left devastated after it was ransacked.

The Champion reported how someone burgled the Bootle community venue, causing

extensive damage to doors and locks before stealing bottles of alcohol and tools.

After the burglary was circulated on social media, an online fundraiser was set-up and more than £1,500 was raised to put towards the repair costs.

The other burglary was carried out at Maghull Community Centre.

death is not being treated as suspicious.

Free friendship cafe to be opened by Salvation Army THE Salvation Army is to open a new friendship cafe next month.

The launch event will be held at 1pm at the Salvation Army coffee lounge at the Church and Community Centre on Shakespeare Street. After the launch, the cafe will open from 1-3pm each Sunday.

A spokesperson for the charity said: “It is a great opportunity for adults to meet with old friends and to make new friends as well. “It is sponsored by the Salvation Army and it’s free of charge!

“We aim to provide a warm, welcoming and relaxed environment for anyone looking for a bit of company! Why not give it a try? Come along, have a cuppa and a bite to eat! Meet new friends and receive the support that you might need.”

by Danielle Thompson A NEWCASTLE couple who came to Southport for a short break, were horrified to find dog muck in their hotel room!

Alan and Jennifer Robson claim their holiday was ruined by the ‘awful experience’ at the Scarisbrick Hotel on Lord Street.

The mess, which was discovered in a waste bin, ‘smelt appalling and was overpowering’ said the couple.

The pensioners asked hotel staff for an alternative bedroom but were only offered a room that was much smaller.

Jennifer, who was a safeguarding officer for children and young people, claimed she was told their room had been empty for a week without being cleaned properly and were promised it would be cleaned immediately. But, said Jennifer, the bin was simply removed and the room sprayed with air freshener.

No apology or discount was offered for the couple’s distress, they claim.

Mrs Robson told the Champion: “Southport is a beautiful part of the world and the people and shopkeepers all made us feel very welcome indeed - but we had the

The Scarisbrick

most awful experience on our visit because of this hotel!

“The room was in an appalling state. We were offered a replacement but no apology from the management on duty, even though we told them how disgusted we were at this very serious lapse of hygiene.

“Our holiday was ruined.

“We contacted Britannia Hotels as soon as we got home but no one from the company has had the courtesy to contact us with an apology.

“We feel we should have had a full refund but we still have not been contacted more than a month later.”

The Champion approached Britannia Hotels, owners of the The Scarisbrick, for comment but no response was given.

Driver loses licence four days after buying first car A woman was caught drink driving... just four days after buying her first car, and not long after passing her driving test.

Saskia Woollam-Rees, 20, of Scarisbrick New Road, appeared at Sefton Magistrates Court on June 5 where she pleaded guilty to driving with 140 milligrams of alcohol in 100ml blood, the legal limit is 80mg/100ml.

The court heard she had been reported by staff at McDonald’s restaurant at Ocean Plaza, Southport, at 6.20am on March 3 Lionel Cope, prosecuting, said police noted she had a smell of alcohol on her breath and stamps on both hands indicating that she had been to a local nightclub.

Woollam-Rees, a care worker, said she had been to bed and had rested after going out to a family party the day before.

The court was told that she’d had her car for just four days and had not long passed her test. It was her first vehicle. It has been an expensive mistake.

The magistrates fined her £284 and made her pay £115 in costs and victim surcharge.

She was also banned from driving for 17 months.

Funeral date set for former Sefton Council stalwart THE funeral of former Sefton Council leader Tom Glover will be held towards the end of this month at St Cuthbert’s Church in Southport.

Mr Glover, 87, who served on Sefton Council from 1973 to 2012, died on Sunday, June 9. The great-grandfather served as a councillor for 50 years both on Southport Borough Council and subsequently Sefton Council; he was Leader of both Councils between 1971 and 1981.

Tom was married to his Tom Glover wife Jackie for 61 years.

They have two children, three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

His funeral service will be held at 11am on Friday June 28.

Councillor Tony Brough, the Leader of the Sefton Conservative Group paid the following tribute to Mr Glover: “It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Tom Glover OBE. “Colleagues and friends will miss his warm handshake, broad smile and ready wit. Tom’s significant political career spanned several decades and in all that time his enthusiasm to serve his community never waned.

“Tom was a gentleman and a man respected by officers, colleagues and councillors alike who, irrespective of party-political differences knew him to be a person of good character and integrity.

“There are few who could claim to have invested so much of their lives to the service of others, Tom was an exceptional person and we are all the poorer for his passing.”

I’m backing Boris for leader, says town’s MP Report by Danielle Thompson SOUTHPORT Tory MP Damien Moore is backing Boris Johnson to be the Conservative Party’s next leader - and the country’s Prime Minister.

The former Mayor of London is the favourite to succeed Theresa May having gained 114 votes from Tory MPs in the first round ballot to be leader.

Also in the running (prior to last night’s second ballot result) are Michael Gove, Jeremy Hunt, Dominic Raab, Sajid Javid and Rory Stewart.

But it’s Johnson who is the clear front runner in the race to be the next Tory party leader and the man who our own MP, Damien Moore, is supporting.

The candidates will be whittled down to a final two names before Conservative Party members get to choose the winner which is expected to be announced in the week of July 22.

Mr Moore is publicly backing Boris Johnson and he explained why to the Champion: “Brexit hit British politics like a tsunami; uprooting traditional party loyalties and for some has turned into a question of democracy itself.

Without delivering on the vote of the people we, as a party, face electoral oblivion.

“Many seats that the Lib Dems lost in 2015 voted for Leave in the referendum. Our vulnerability in those seats is as much the consequence of the Brexit Party quickly gaining support as it is the result of any sort of Lib Dem recovery. Holding both leave and remain leaning seats at the next election becomes almost impossible if Brexit Party support remains anywhere near its current level.

“The only way to halt the rise of Nigel Farage is to deliver Brexit, like the voters demanded in their droves in recent elections. We must show the electorate that they can trust us to deliver.

“But this goes beyond delivering Brexit. It’s about giving a big, bold offer to the country after Brexit is delivered. This is why a onenation Conservative approach is so important.

Mayor of London led the way for a revolution in urban transport.

“His policy priorities to ensure better secondary education funding in secondary schools is particularly important for many parents, especially in rural communities. His support for responsible housing policy, shown in London, is important to ensure young people get the homes they need and our communities continue to thrive. This modern, one-nation approach is what will help us halt and turn back any Lib Dem resurgence.

“More than this though we must recover our hopeful message of an outward looking, global Britain and reassure voters that we are still very much on the side of hard-working people. We need a leader who can espouse a vision for Britain. A leader able to talk confidently about our commitment to tackle climate change. A leader who can convey our Conservative message.

“Only Boris Johnson can do that. Only he can sell a One Nation vision for Britain that excites in Bath just as much as it does in Bolsover.”

Stem Cell Scousers hit the £45,000 fundraising mark

THE Stem Cell Scousers are celebrating after reaching the £45,000 mark for fundraising.

Kevin Dunne and his younger brother Tony, were inspired to set up Stem Cell Scousers in 2015 after the charity Anthony Nolan found a donor for Kevin’s wife in the USA. The donor saved her life when she was suffering from aggressive leukaemia.

In 2016, Tony was diagnosed with a blood disorder and needed a stem cell transplant but against all the odds - and to the amazement of the doctors Kevin was a miracle match for Tony... just like an identical twin, even though Kevin is two years older. Kevin then donated his cells and saved Tony’s life.

In the last year alone, the Stem Cell Scousers, which are a Friends of Anthony Nolan group, have organised donor recruitment drives which signed up 496 new donors to the national register.

They hold events across Sefton, including bag packs in supermarkets such as Aldi in Netherton and Tesco in Formby.

Earlier this year, Kevin won a coveted Pride of Formby award for his tireless work raising funds and awareness of the charity.

Kevin said: “The Stem Cell Scousers in just four years have now raised an amazing sum of £45,444.19 for blood cancer charities. The Anthony Nolan Trust has received £34,546.13 of that total.

“The Myeloma UK West Lancs and Merseyside Support Group joined the Stem Cell Scousers last year and have helped at numerous fundraising events.”

Lawrie Mallyon from Anthony Nolan added: “We are amazed by the tireless fundraising and awareness of the Anthony Nolan Charity that the Stem Cell Scousers are doing for us and all the political support they have

gained for the Anthony Nolan in the Merseyside area.

Singer Nuala Nuxbury, who is a member of the Stem Cell Scousers, will hold a fundraising event for Myeloma UK at Enelle’s Glass House on Lord Street in Southport on Thursday, July 4, from 7-11pm. She is holding it in memory of her father Arthur Magennis, who passed away in February 2018 from multiple myeloma, a very rare blood cancer.

MORE than ÂŁ320,000 was spent by Sefton Council in the last financial year on helping to reduce crime in the borough.

A new report has been published showing how, across the 12 month period, Sefton’s Safer Communities Partnership (SSCP) has invested in a number of initiatives, programmes and activities designed to disrupt and prevent crime.

Some of the key targets included investing in community infrastructure projects, working with victims, combating domestic and sexual abuse, tackling serious and ‘We’ve seen an organised crime, and improving youth incredible offending services reduction in Cllr Trish Hardy, anti-social Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for behaviour Communities and Housing, said: “In incidents since we started our the last financial year we have spent invaluable work’ more than ÂŁ320,000 on helping to reduce crime, supporting victims and working with partners to provide resilience to our wonderful communities. “Through the SSCP we identify a number of areas where there is a need for a project, scheme or event which can often deter crime and anti-social behaviour as well as provide a platform of education. “The impact that the SSCP have had, from our park night sessions to our scrambler bike partnership work with Merseyside Police, has been incredible and we are constantly receiving positive feedback from our initiatives. “We are committed to tackling anti-social behaviour in Sefton along with partners in the Sefton Safer and Stronger Communities Partnership (SSCP), and this is shown we’ve seen an incredible reduction in anti-social behaviour incidents since we started our invaluable work. “We will continue to build a positive future for our thriving communities and work tirelessly to combat any crime and anti-social behaviour in Sefton.â€?

Queenie’s on a mission to teach children about end-of-life care

QUEENSCOURT Hospice mascot, Queenie, is visiting schools to tell youngsters all about its vital work in supporting patients as they approach the end of their lives.

The new initiative, called Queenie’s Roadshow, was launched last week. Queenie’s first port of call was Birkdale Primary School, before visiting children at YMCA Sefton Nursery and Linaker High School.

Queenie will also be visiting Farnborough Road Infants School, Birkdale High School, Norwood Primary School and Marshside Primary School in the weeks ahead.

The mascot will be delivering carefully planned Queenie and members of the hospice team at school assemblies and will also be attending several YMCA Sefton Nursery school sports’ days throughout July, cheering on the team and were eager to find out all about our work children while raising further awareness of and how they can help us. Having Queenie with us certainly helped grab their attention and we look Queenscourt with pupils and their families.

LETTERS to the Editor Motorists ignore 20mph signs I am reminded daily of the speeding traffic through Ainsdale Village and I am appalled the 20mph limit is ignored.

50mph being the norm.

Unless I sprint across the road near the station I am putting my life at risk. This is difficult with a walking stick.

I witnessed a pram

pusher, with three toddlers, complete with obligatory mobile glued to her ear stagger across the road. She was unaware that speeding vehicles narrowly missed her.

Zebra crossings and speed cameras would be beneficial.

Everybody deserves a break Vote with your feet Let’s give carers the help and recognition they deserve.

Carers Week ended last Sunday (June 16) and the week recognised the 6.5 million carers living in the UK. It is estimated that unpaid carers save the economy £60bn per year. That’s why, as a charity we are passionate to do all we can to support unpaid carers and ensure they all have access to good quality respite.

I work for Revitalise, an amazing national charity that creates holidays for disabled people and carers at our three accessible respite holiday centres one of which is in Southport. Our guests often tell us just how important their break has been for their well-being; June cares for her daughter Sally-Ann and tells us about their relationship and life at home: “It was so important for us to have the respite and it was a really good rest for both of us. I could let my hair down and for once in a blue moon I didn’t have to worry about the responsibilities of home. Some people would say that Revitalise is just a break but it’s so much more than that.”

Many carers dedicate their entire life to

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

looking after those they love. For these people, their own happiness and well-being is determined by the happiness of those they care for. An estimated 6,000 people take on caring responsibilities every day.

That’s why, I’d like to take a moment to reassure your readers that we are here to help.

Revitalise is a place where carers and their loved ones can come at the times when they need us the most and simply spend time together. Carers can choose to accompany their loved one or enjoy a break elsewhere. Either way they can hand over the caring role to us and have a rest.

Our centres are open to our guests all year round, and we have hardship funding for those that need it. We passionately believe that everybody deserves a break and are determined that nobody should miss out on the opportunity for financial reasons.

To find out more about Revitalise, our breaks, or ways that we may be able to support you please visit: www.revitalise.org.uk or call: 0303 303 0145.

refuse to buy plastic!

We are all aware of the dangers of plastic and yet we are still being asked if we want a bag when out shopping.

This question should be obsolete.

In a busy charity shop on Lord Street recently I refused a bag and replied I was shocked I was being asked, given their danger to wildlife and humans.

The volunteer agreed

they should be banned, so why offer me one?

We have a super busy eco shop and a delightful cafe on Wesley Street, that refuses anything plastic.

These two environmentally friendly, positive shop owners are leading the way in Southport.

Vote with your feet, refuse plastic.

Will DEFRA insist council restarts caddie collections?

Yet again our food recycling bin has not been emptied and neither have my neighbours.

I have contacted the council and staff say the local authority decided to have a temporary suspension of the service whilst they liaise with DEFRA. They did not have time to sticker bins to let residents know but it was reported in the Champion.

My food waste caddie was emptied some weeks ago but a friend who lives a few

streets away says theirs has not been emptied for six weeks and they were told by the bin men that they had stopped doing it. No one knew what was going on.

Council staff told me the service would resume but could not give a date.

I now know they want to stop the collections so who knows if it will ever actually restart, or if DEFRA will insist they do?

Follow Warrington’s example on how to deal with food waste

of the week

A new bio-gas plant has opened in Warrington.

The facility will produce energy from food waste for the new generation of environmentally-friendly lorries.

Neighbourhood Plan is gibberish

A hare hiding in lush green grass, is this week’s Picture of the Week submission. The captivating photograph was expertly taken by Mark Randles from Hesketh Park. The image was captured when Mark was out and about enjoying a walk in the Crossens countryside.

Wishful thinking will not revive town centre ‘Concerned Resident’ states that our market hall is in ‘completely the wrong place’ and suggests moving it less than five minutes' walk away into the former BHS store.

However, that building is privately owned and the council cannot simply take over someone else's property.

Does he or she know whether the owners would be prepared to accommodate a market?

Has he or she considered the likelihood that if the premises were

subsequently sold, the market would be homeless?

Once the market is moved, what would become of the empty council-owned market hall?

At present, the council receives some rental income from it. This income would be lost and Sefton (i.e. council tax payers) would have to pay for the maintenance of an empty building until it was put to another use or sold, either of which could take some time.

Our market is underused for some of the same reasons why shops are closing: on-line shopping (now nearly one fifth of all retail), reduced customer spending power due to austerity, rising costs and business rates pressures (business rates are set by the government, not the council). This is not just a local problem: it has been calculated that English and Welsh town centres have on average lost 8% of their shops since 2013.

I agree that capital

investment would help our town centre but the council certainly doesn't have the cash, especially as the government has slashed about half of its funding since 2010.

Private business will invest only if it sees that it can make a profit, so where is all this money to come from?

Wishful thinking alone will not revive our town centre: as the old saying goes, if wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

Neville Grundy, Southport

A recent Champion headline read, ‘Our MP clearly does not understand the Neighbourhood Plan’ (as put forward by Formby & Altcar Parish Council).

He’s not the only one.

I read the plan and it is gibberish.

There have been numerous responses to the plan saying that it fails to protect Formby and that the Parish Council has not worked with anyone to produce the plan.

The result is the Neighbourhood Plan doesn't add up.

Given that the Parish Council wasted thousands of pounds on writing a plan that is useless, what faith can we have that FRAG are not making other similarly poor decisions on other matters which affect Formby?

David Wright, Formby

True will of the people has already been determined H. Robertson's letter (Champion. June 5) appears to be an attack on me for trying to justify that no additional referendum should be held for Brexit when the true will of the people has in fact already been determined by the 2016 referendum which has, sadly, not yet even been implemented.

Quite how that can be said to be ‘hypocrisy ’ is way beyond my powers of comprehension.

He appears to be a disbe-

liever in democracy and prepared to accept the voluminous and distorted words of all those politicians and others who likewise ignore the will of the people and the enormous risks we run by rejecting the agreement.

What we should fear most is remaining in the EU with the consequential and permanent loss of democracy itself and possible civil unrest; a no-deal Brexit would cause severe problems, but they would be overcome in time.

Far too much nonsense and doom and gloom has been spouted by pathetic Remoaners in the last three years The will of the people was adopted 40-odd years ago with little if any complaints from the non-believers; even I did not write any letters to the local newspapers about it then.

It is now time for the will of the believers to be adopted.

People wasting less food?

Regarding food waste collection - if people were more responsible and made sure they used all their food, rather than throwing it away, we wouldn’t need food waste collections.

Public needs to back council’s campaign to stop car idling

freedom we have today. Both the prime minister and the Beeb were pontificating at the time through all their soundbites ‘lest we forget’ but then, not more than a week later, we are told that free TV licences for the over 75s are to be scrapped.

This will harm the very people who, for some, the television is their only lifeline to the outside world.

This heartless decision has been taken while the Beebs highly paid executives and presenters will still receive their huge salaries.

This is how the BBC fat-cats now choose to remember our heroes? So much for their empty rhetoric during the station’s D-Day programmes To all those concerned, please think again.

ALARMS &

In response to your recent article about the new Sefton Council initiative to stop car idling, I think this is a brilliant and much-needed initiative.

Perhaps they could extend the campaign to encourage car users to turn off engines whilst waiting to cross one of our many railway crossings, particularly ones such as those in Birkdale

In reply to Jim Sharpe re so called modern ‘classic music’, can I say that people thought many of the great classical composers were too radical in their days (Beethoven for one!)

We need radio stations to play music that will encourage a new generation of classical music lovers, otherwise we’ll lose our amazing orchestras in this country.

But Jim also needs to get his facts right - there is only one piece of film music in the top 30 classic fm Hall of fame and that is the music to Schindler's List

“Any money made via our in-home events such as the Summer, Christmas and Easter Fairs, plus raffles, goes towards the care home’s chosen charity, which is selected by the residents.

“All of the staff and residents at Hesketh Park Lodge would like to thank the crewmembers and volunteers of the Southport Lifeboat service for their hard work and dedication, it's a charity that’s very dear to their hearts. The service is totally independent and receives no funding from the RNLI, which means that the minimum of £60,000 a year that is required to keep this vital service operational comes via the fund-raising efforts of those like our residents.”

AN NHS Trust that supports mental and physical health and wellbeing has been awarded the prestigious Employers Armed Forces Covenant Bronze Award in recognition of its support for the armed forces.

Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust, which has bases in

Bootle and Southport, was recognised as a ‘military friendly employer’ in supporting the armed forces community and those who have served or are serving reservists and commits the trust to the Government’s Employer Recognition Scheme.

The award was presented to Joe Rafferty, Mersey Care’s chief executive, at the trust’s headquarters alongside veterans employed by the trust.

Joe said: “We value the skills and competencies that armed forces veterans, reservists and their families bring to the trust,

including the expert knowledge and understanding they can bring to the care we provide to veteran service users.

“Mersey Care has a proud tradition of working alongside veterans groups and reservists.”

Volunteers give up their spare time to help save Natterjack Toad Report by Danielle Thompson VOLUNTEERS have donated more than 500 hours of their time to helping protected Natterjack Toads along the Sefton Coastline.

The Back from the Brink project marked National Volunteers’ Week earlier this month by ‘celebrating the amazing work volunteers are doing to save endangered species in England’.

Throughout the year, the conservation project runs courses and activities across England to preserve the most threatened plants and animals.

James Harding-Morris from the project said: “In just two years over two thousand people have volunteered their time to help the Back from the Brink project work to save 200 of the UK’s most endangered species from extinction. This has given the project the equivalent of over 4,000 days of work, or the equivalent of over ten years of time generously offered by people to protect our wildlife and wild spaces.

“Along the Sefton Coast in the north west volunteers have provided over 500 hours of their time to monitor over 40 pools for evidence of Natterjack Toads.

A Natterjack Toad

The volunteers found more than 600 spawn strings which is helping conservationists better understand the size of the population and how to protect the species.”

In Britain the Natterjack Toad is almost exclusively confined to coastal sand dune systems, coastal grazing marshes and sandy heaths, though a single colony has been found on an upland fell site in Cumbria. They are often associated with ponds in sand dune slacks, which are often more shallow and warm, as they require warmer water in which to breed successfully.

Natterjacks are found on around 60 sites

in Britain and south-west Ireland, with one of the biggest populations on the Sefton coastline.

James added: “Across the country, volunteers have planted and nurtured almost 2,000 barberries to help the barberry carpet moth, a species that depends on the plant as well as tracking the rugged oil beetle and learning how to create the perfect habitat to protect and save it. They also recorded the presence of sand lizards in areas where they were absent for16 years.

“Volunteers are invaluable to our work, we have people of all ages and all walks of life giving their time to save species from extinction in England. It is easy to think that there are only endangered animals in the remote corners of the world, but we have over 200 species here that desperately need our help. But the good news is everyone can play a part in saving our plants and wildlife, we have volunteers in the field, and some who help us from their home, and it is down to their hard work that we are not just improving our understanding of endangered species but are seeing populations grow and become more secure for future generations.”

Chance for community groups to bloom thanks to green grant awards ALMOST £9,000 has been awarded in grants to help community groups across Sefton to improve their local high street.

Ainsdale in Bloom and Lord Street in Bloom, as well as In Bloom groups in Bootle, Crosby, Waterloo, Litherland and Maghull, have all benefited from a cash injection from Sefton Council that will allow them to invest in new equipment, plants and greenery. The money was made available thanks to a government grant aimed at helping local authorities clean up their high streets.

In Bloom groups are volunteer led community gardening groups who dedicate their own time and resources to help improve the appearance of their local highways, parks and greenspaces by planting plants and flowers and installing artwork.

However, In Bloom isn’t just about flowers, it encourages volunteers and the local community to improve their environment by undertaking litter-picks and tackling grot-spots.

Cllr John Fairclough, Sefton Council’s cabinet member for locality services said: “The work of In Bloom groups is invaluable to our communities, especially as we see an increased demand on our services. These volun-

‘Volunteers are a credit to Sefton’ teers are a credit to Sefton and play a key role in helping to keep our borough clean, green and beautiful.

“We’re thrilled to have the

opportunity to support these groups financially and better enable them to continue doing their brilliant work and help Sefton’s high streets bloom.”

Meanwhile, last week the Champion revelaed that Ainsdale in Bloom chairperson Brenda Porter, 80, had reached the finals of the 2019 Merseyside Women of the Year Awards, which will be announced on June 28.

Garden fete to be held at St Joseph’s A GARDEN fete will be held at St Joseph’s in Formby on Sunday, July 7, between 1-4pm, organised by the Friends of St Joseph’s.

St Joseph’s is a residential facility for adults with severe physical and mental disabilities.

On show this year will be the new fully wheelchair accessible mini-bus which was raised from donations.

Model Kelly looks forward to Times Square runway date Mental health worker lands New York assignment and appears in new fashion photography book Report by Danielle Thompson A SEFTON model who started the year in style when she was chosen to take part in New York and London Fashion Weeks, has now been featured in new fashion photography book, Can I Borrow Your Face?

Kelly Stopforth, who works in the mental health sector, was given the opportunity to be a catwalk model at Liverpool Fashion Week several years ago which led to her then taking part in Manchester Fashion Week. She has also won the title of Miss Southport 2017/18 for Miss British Isles.

Kelly flew out to take part in New York Fashion Week in February, with London Fashion Week following on straight afterwards.

Patrick Coates' book, Can I Borrow Your Face? combines fashion photography with poetry.

She said: “I am a local girl from Southport and I was very honoured to have been chosen to be part of such spectacular events. I juggle modelling with my main job which is working within the mental health sector.

“My experience in New York and London as a fashion model was a very memorable one, making lots of contacts and having the opportunity to walk for some top designers.

“Since my return home, I have been asked to

model again in New York on September 7 to walk the runway through Times Square - which I am totally ecstatic about and feel very honoured!

“I am honoured to have been featured in the beautiful creation of this book, which is now available in the UK. “I hope this journey within the fashion world will continue as right now, I am embracing every minute of it!”

Out&About with the Staff donate their time!

Firefighters hope to extinguish ‘period poverty’ SOUTHPORT Community Fire Station is one of nine chosen across Merseyside to help extinguish period poverty.

Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service is encouraging the public to help young women by donating sanitary products, underwear, deodorant and tights, to boxes at fire stations across Merseyside.

Once full, the boxes will be given to local secondary schools.

They launched their Red Box campaign to coincide with the International Day of Women’s Health, held last month.

The Red Box Project, a not-forprofit initiative set up in 2017, aims to ensure young women do not miss out on education or other opportunities because of a New Headers.indd 2 struggle to afford sanitary products.

Members of Formby Squirrel Rotary Club presented their cheque

Squirrels help nature charity FORMBY Squirrels Rotary Club boosted funds for their own mascot when they chose the Wildlife Trust for Lancashire, Manchester and North Merseyside.

Club president Ruth Swift presented a cheque for £1,000 to Rachel Cripps, red squirrel officer for the charity. Ruth said: “It is one of four charities that our club has chosen to support this year.

Rachel Cripps confirmed they will put the funds raised on continuing their biannual Red Squirrel monitoring programme, which they carry out every March and October.

STAFF at Yorkshire Building Society on London Street, Southport have been donating their time to a variety of community projects.

The team gave 67 hours of their time ahead of the recent Volunteers’ Week, volunteering at Silver Line Friends, making weekly telephone calls to isolated elderly people.

Since the Society launched its national volunteering scheme in 2007, more than 100,000 hours of their staff's time has been donated to charities and good 25/01/2019 10:25 causes around the UK.

The trust has now placed ‘well over’ 30 automatic external defibrillators in public access boxes and in schools, churches and businesses in the above areas, the latest being at the Christian Centre on Moss Lane, Hesketh Bank.

A clay pigeon shoot competition to raise funds for the DCT will be held on Sunday, June 30, 11am to 3pm, at Ribble Bank Field Sports, Dib Road, Hesketh Bank. For details and entry contact 07854 020915.

Hospice banks on Adam to complete fundraising run A BANKING consultant raised thousands of pounds in memory of his beloved grandma by running the Blackpool Marathon.

Adam Goldfarb, 24, from Tarleton, works at Lloyds Bank and until last year, hadn't run for a decade- since he was a schoolboy in fact!

But after his grandma, Carole Anne Moore, also from Tarleton, passed away following a short 15-day battle with cancer aged 73 in August 2018, he took up running again to train for the 26mile challenge.

Adam was accompanied by his family when he presented a £5,660 cheque to the Queenscourt team.

Adam’s mum Michelle said: “My mum, Carole, had always been as fit as a fiddle so it was a terrible shock to the family when she was diagnosed with cancer and then passed away after just 15 days.

“She sadly didn't make it to Queenscourt Hospice, but she

“Staff were brilliant and made such a difference and Adam vowed after she passed away to do a marathon in her memory to raise funds for Queenscourt and give something back.

Creative youngsters asked to design homes of the future Report by Tom Martin CREATIVE pupils from Formby and Southport are being invited to design how their homes could look in years to come as part of the House of the Future Competition.

Year 5 and 6 pupils can enter their designs for the Liverpool City Region competition to show how homes could change when considering issues such as the environment, cities and communities.

They will then transform these ideas into a choice of visual work, 3D models, or both, to communicate their house designs and vision.

Launching the competition, Metro Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, Steve Rotheram said: “Working to make our environment cleaner and greener for the future was one of my key manifesto pledges. So what better way to find out what the homes of tomorrow should look like than to ask the future adults of our city region?

“We are already taking steps to reduce the impact on our environment. We have adopted a Zero Carbon target of 2040, 10 years ahead of the national tar-

get, and have launched the £10millioin Green Investment Fund.

“But these young people are the ones who will end up having responsibility for what we leave behind and their ideas can change things which will hopefully point us all in the right direction for a greener future.”

The competition will be judged by Steve Rotheram, Architect Paul Monaghan who is the Liverpool City Region Design Champion, Barbara Spicer CBE, the Chief Executive of Plus Dane Housing Group, the Metro Mayor’s Housing Advisor, Danielle Gillespie, General Manager of Homes England and Mairi Johnson, the Director of

Estates at National Museums Liverpool.

The House of the Future competition is free to enter and open to primary schools across Liverpool City Region, which includes Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens and Wirral.

Prizes will be awarded to the winners and the overall winner will have their design worked up into a professional architect’s drawing. All the judge’s selections will be framed and exhibited in a central Liverpool location.

The competition closes on October 25 and all the judge’s selections will be exhibited in central Liverpool in early 2020.

LIMITED OFFER

Volunteers needed at lunch club VOLUNTEERS are needed to help at a popular weekly lunch club.

The Brighter Living Partnership, one of Living Well Sefton’s partners, is looking for extra support at the Southport Community Centre.

There is already a cook who caters for more than 20 people who go along to the Southport Community Centre for a two-course lunch, as well as other support in the kitchen.

A spokesperson said:

“What we are looking for are friendly volunteers to greet and serve those who arrive on a Thursday looking to enjoy the atmosphere just as much as the home-cooked meal.

“Volunteering is a great way to make you feel better about yourself. You get to connect with your local community, make new friends, help others. In return, the benefits to you include feeling happier, more confident and having a sense of purpose.”

Angela Bedford, who creates the popular lunches each week, has volunteered with Brighter Living for 15 months and said: “I love preparing and cooking the lunch club meals because I see how much people enjoy eating them, the chatter from everyone talking, the banter and it makes me feel good because I have helped to do that.”

To find out more information, call 01704 517818 and ask to speak to Matty.

SOMETIMES these days I think I must have been born a grumpy old man - then I remember my late brother George, who was!

As a teenager and young adult (we had them both in those days) I don’t suppose I was ever a member of the swinging scene - I was too busy trying to be truly grown up.

But what, you may say, of the sex and drugs and rock ‘n roll?

Well, in the sex department I suppose I did rather well.

As for the rock ‘n roll - well I can still manage to sing one or two of the songs (including some from the late 1950s too, and hum along to the tunes of many others.)

They were music, see, even if the words could sometimes be just a wee bit daft.

It’s just a pity I am not eligible as prospective leader of the Conservative Party since I can honestly say, hand on heart, that I have never in my life tried ‘recreational’ drugs, nor even ‘pot.’

So there I am, clean as the proverbial. And sober now as well, though I still feel proud when I remember the manageress of one establishment who once told me: “One of the things I like about you is that no matter how much you drink, you always remain a gentleman.”

Had our son not died as a baby, I reckon too that I would perforce kept up far better with modern idioms and fancies.

Or, indeed, had I remained in my job with British Telecom I would most certainly not now be computer illiterate and would probably own the most up to date tablets or what-have-you.

Mind you, since I was an early convert to credit and debit cards (though I pay my bills boringly each month) I think it is probably deliberate awkwardness on my part which prompts me to use cash rather than cashless method of payment for everyday items.

And, I think, as a plus this gives you a far better idea of how much you actually are spending in the supermarket too.

I have this idea that I would like to be the last person in the country to pay real cash for something in a shop.

But try as I might, I cannot help feeling envious of those (not always young people) folk at a bus stop who whiz out their tablets to tell me that the bus was five minutes late at its last stop.

Try as I might to convince myself that it’s

fun not knowing, I know that is not true. It isn’t. It is an interesting fact though that so long as you do not tell someone that you are more or less totally ignorant of the workings of these modern gadgets, they think you are quite normal and so you can get along with your old bus timetable, listen to weather forecasts on the radio, and pay for your cocoa and milk with real money without anyone bothering you at all.

Once you admit you have little idea how even to switch one of these gadgets on, people seem to think either that you have gone mad, or that you are deliberately being awkward.

And perhaps I am at that.

But I'll tell you this - things are far more simple in Jim’s little old fashioned world and when I am all alone with dogs Tina and Cinders (both of whom are as unaware of modern gadgets as am I), on our boat in Norfolk it is possible to get by, meeting and talking to strangers, without anything having to intrude in my own 1960s world.

Believe me, it is a far simpler world with fewer petty restrictions and a lot more spontaneity than in the present climate of things being ‘unacceptable’ and care taken before you utter any word.

But then, I suppose I must just about catch up with my actual age, so perhaps the best thing is to slip into my role as a slightly cantankerous but hopefully grumpy, yet loveable old man.

Go Zoe! All-electric car capable of 242 miles on a single charge RENAULT’S all-electric Zoe is now capable of travelling 242 miles on a single charge – nearly a third further than the outgoing version can manage.

The five-door supermini is now being offered with a 52kWh battery rather than a 40kWh one, which is quicker to charge, offers more straight-line performance and takes up no additional interior space.

Renault’s also tweaked the car’s styling and redesigned its dashboard.

There’s no word on prices yet, but expect it to be here by the end of the year. Prices are expected to be similar to the £21,220 being asked for the outgoing model.

Renault has given the Zoe supermini a longer range as well as refreshed styling

THE MOST surprising car I’ve driven in the past year has just pulled another hankerchief out of its sleeve. The London black cab is now available – as a van.

It just doesn’t sound right somehow, does it?

The Friday night ride home of choice across much of the capital – and an increasingly familiar sight in this part of the world too, particularly in Liverpool and Manchester – has been transformed from the B-pillars backwards into something that resembles a bloated Volkswagen Caddy, but beneath the skin shares the same combination of electric motors (and some internal combustion back-up, in the form of a 1.5litre petrol engine as a range extender) as its more familiar, fare-fetching cousin.

While the London Electric Vehicle Company claims it can travel 377 miles in one hit – meaning that should The Champion ever launch an Inverness edition it’ll be able to deliver a freshly-printed batch without having to stop to charge up – it’s actually pitched as a response to what it calls “the Amazon-isation of retail”.

In other words, all those short trips from parcel depots to your door because every other person on your street orders their

LEVC is hoping its taxi-based van will appeal to eco-friendly businesses

stuff online. That’s a lot of short hops for blokes in vans – and a lot of air pollution if it isn’t kept in check.

But I reckon the van has the potential to be a hit for much the same reason the black cab is – it’s really, really good at what it does.

When I drove the TX taxi last year I reckoned its ability to take contactless payment and provide drunken passengers with an in-built WiFi zone for their Instagram selfies was smart stuff – but not half as clever as the way it drove.

A seven-seater that’s roughly the same size as a Land Rover Discovery Sport had the sort of turning circle you’d expect from a Smart, was a doddle to drive and had all of its electronic trickery harnessed by a Teslaesque touchscreen that dominated the dashboard and was intuitively easy to use.

If LECV can give a van – even one that

does look a bit like a drunken Austin A35 from the front – the same sort of qualities in something than can carry two Euro pallets, then I reckon it’ll quickly build up a healthy queue of fans.

In fact, the biggest battle will be the one thing LEVC hasn’t announced yet – the price. All that’s been confirmed is that it’ll be less than the £55k its taxi cousin currently costs, but bear in mind Nissan’s allelectric NV200, with a 174-mile range, costs £19,116 before VAT. You might not be able to get to Inverness in it, but that’s a 35-grand saving.

The black cab makers might have to pull off some more magic to square that difference…

S&B dismissed for just 64 as they lose to leaders Bootle

Ainsdale boost promotion bid with win at Birkenhead Park IN the First Division, undefeated Ainsdale boosted their chances of promotion with an 87 run win at Birkenhead Park, where runs from skipper Stephen Lucas 44, Lee Bolton 35 and Dylan Mullen 30* enabled them to declare on 166-4.

In reply, the hosts slipped from 41-1 to 79 all out, with Lucas 3-10 and Martyn Farrell 3-32 doing the majority of damage with the ball.

The win put Ainsdale two points behind second placed Wigan in the table, with leaders Rainford a further 27points clear at the top.

Bottom of the table Fleetwood Hesketh are still looking to record their first win of the season after suffering a seven wicket home defeat by table toppers Rainford.

The hosts were put in to bat and collapsed from 46-1 to 59 all out, with Matty Howard 34 and Irshad Desai 10 scoring most of them whilst extras were the next highest scorer with 5, the rest of the players mustered just 10 runs off the bat between them as John Dotters helped himself to match winning figures of 7-15.

In reply, skipper David Snellgrove top scored with an unbeaten 34* as the leaders eased to victory on 60-3.

In the Second Division, Hightown St Mary’s recorded a seven wicket home win over

Fleetwood Hesketh continue to struggle

Maghull, the visitors chose to bat and thanks to runs from Joe Medew-Ewen 36 plus 31 each from Cam Lawrenson and Greg Gillespie managed to put 154 up on the board, with Jim Kelly 5-58 and Matt Laybourne 4-61 taking the bulk of the wickets to fall.

In reply, opener Jayden Schadendorf carried his bat and top scored with an unbeaten 81* whilst Laybourne capped off a fine display with an undefeated 28* which helped the hosts to victory on 156-3.

Southport Trinity suffered a five wicket defeat at runaway leaders Liverpool. Trinity were put in to bat and dismissed inside 35 overs for just 74 with only Wim Van Der Walt 14 and Mark Prince 13 reaching double figures against an unchanged bowling attack led by Daniel Kelly 6-21 and Daniel Clubbe 4-48. In reply, 24 from skipper Henry Charlton and an unbeaten 23* from Chris Tonge were pivotal in the hosts chase as they clinched victory in the 27th over on 78-5, with skipper Craig Prince taking 3-35.

SOUTHPORT & Birkdale were beaten by four wickets at leaders Bootle on Saturday, with the result putting the Wadham Road side 21 points clear at the top of the Liverpool & District Cricket Competition Premier Division table, writes Glenn Wallworth.

Electing to bat first S&B were dismissed for just 64 in the 34th over, thanks in the main to Will Purser who took 4-27 and Jhangir Liaqat who claimed 3-4.

Bootle struggled with the bat themselves as S&B made them fight for each run, but the hosts eventually reached 67-6 to clinch victory with Danny Davies top scoring with 17, while Angus Gailey took 3-17 with the ball.

Formby, who started the day joint top of the table, had a frustrating weather affected afternoon at Orrell Red Triangle where they eventually lost by 20 runs.

The hosts were asked to bat first and thanks to runs from skipper Andrew Mottram 62*, Ian Lyon 41 and Chris Riley 29 declared their innings on 173-4, with Sam Oldham taking 3-46.

The start of Formby’s reply was hampered by the rain and despite the best efforts of James Seward 37, Oldham 36 and Ollie Sutton 25 they were dismissed in the 29th over for 153, with Afaq Sartaj the chief destroyer with the ball with 6-56.

Ormskirk recorded a 126 run win at Colwyn Bay.

Formby undone by Afaq who claims 6-56 in 20-run defeat at Orrell After being put in to bat the visitors declared their innings on 220-7 thanks largely to runs from George Lavelle 78, Gary Knight 34, Tom Hartley 33* and Ryan Maddock 30.

The hosts were quickly reduced to 42-5 in their reply before being dismissed for 94, with Tom Hartley topping the bowling honours with 3-28, whilst skipper Nick Caunce, Scott Lees and Maddock took two wickets apiece.

Northern made light work of Lytham, where the hosts elected to bat and were quickly dismissed for just 52 thanks to a five wicket haul from Tom Sephton who claimed 5-21 and Liam Grey who took 4-18, with Lancashire’s Steven Croft top scoring with 23.

In reply, the loss of three early wickets didn’t really matter as unbeaten knocks from Chris Laker 24* and skipper James Cole 23* led the visitors to victory on 563.

This weekend’s local LDCC fixtures (1pm start): Bootle v Leigh, Colwyn Bay v Southport & Birkdale, Ormskirk v Wallasey, Orrell Red Triangle v Northern, Rainhill v Formby, Ainsdale v Highfield, Fleetwood Hesketh v Old Xaverians, Caldy v Southport Trinity, Hightown St Mary’s v Burscough, and Parkfield Liscard v Maghull.

‘Fan zone’ plan for stadium

Project underway to relay Port’s pitch

PROPOSALS have been put forward to create a “fan zone” a Southport’s stadium following a meeting between the club board and supporters’ group Trust in Yellow.

In the coming weeks the TIY board will work towards acquiring a facility in the area between the main stand and the club shop with a view to having the area in operation during the early period of the season.

Trust member Jonathan O’Byrne from the Trust said: “The fan zone will be a blank canvas and it will be down to supporters to make it their area.

“During the course of the 2019/2020 season, the Trust will run a number of supporter related fundraisers and gauge feedback as to how supporters want their area to look, appear and feel.

“The area will improve the experience for regular match goers, create a better environment to attract new supporters and assist the club in generating extra match day and non-match day income.”

If you have ideas about what the facility should provide email fans@trustinyellow.com.
