Council acts ‘at the double’ in bid to change town’s fortunes

Funding has been applied to transform historic properties between Lord Street and the Promenade

Authority wants £1.62m funding for major town centre project COUNCIL chiefs have submitted a second round bid for £1.62million of National Lottery Heritage Funding for a ‘major project’ in Southport town centre. The Southport Townscape Heritage Project aims to enhance the quality and strength of the linkages between the town centre and the seafront so that the two become more integrated. It also seeks to increase the levels of economic activity within a target area and reduce the number of vacant and underused properties. The project will focus on historic properties between Lord Street and the Promenade and aims to complement the previous Lottery funded restoration of King's Gardens and the recent £2m award from the Coastal Communities funds for Southport pier.

PLANS UNVEILED TO TRANSFORM FAILING MARKET Recipe for success? Struggling King Street site will become home to ‘unique food and drink offer’ under dramatic new proposals by Danielle Thompson

How Southport Market might look

SOUTHPORT’s struggling indoor market could be turned into a ‘unique food and drink offer’ under dramatic new plans to save the King Street site. Sefton Council chiefs have released ‘exciting’ images of how the market could look as they battle to turn its fortunes around. While no final decisions have yet been made, Sefton Council is getting the trans-

formation process underway by talking to current stallholders with the view of moving the plans forward. The council maintains it ‘really values’ Southport Market, but say it has become evident that many factors are making trading conditions ‘extremely difficult’ and occupancy levels continue to fall.

£4.2m Merseyside Police operation will target serious crime Report by Tom Martin A £4.2M police campaign to tackle serious and violent crime across Merseyside has been launched this week. Operation Target will see more ‘high visibility police officers’ on the streets and the purchase of additional equipment such as hand held metal detectors and metal detecting gloves for frontline officers. There will be increased disruption activity including stop searches; roadside checks; open land searches and test purchasing. Operation Target was launched on Monday, July 1 and is funded from the Home Office’s £100m Serious Violence Fund to tackle issues including knife and gun crime. Work will also be done to develop further intelligence around types of crimes and key areas and tactics in order to directly target those involved in serious violence and we will be working in close partnership with local authorities, the Youth Offending Service and health and social care professionals to share information and good practice. Early intervention work will also continue in schools and youth groups and communities. Chief Superintendent Matt

Boyle said: “We know what concerns the people of Merseyside and although resources have been put into tackling these issues in the past this additional funding from the Home Office means our response will now be even bigger and better. “We know issues such as knife and gun crime really impact on our communities and we are committed to tackling these issues head on and really making a difference. “We now have the funding to put more officers in the places that we need them most – either high visibility patrols in our communities or in our city and town centres at night and peak times. Commitment “It also means that we can develop our intelligence around offenders, pay for additional equipment to assist operations and investigations, engage with our local schools and communities and work with our partners to adopt a co-ordinated approach to tackling serious violence. “This will be a one team

approach with officers and staff from across the force including roads policing, armed response, investigations, dogs and mounted and neighbourhood officers as well as call handlers, intelligence staff, forensics officers and support staff involved in making Operation Target a success. “Some of this work will take place behind the scenes but I hope that the public will recognise our continued commitment to making Merseyside an even safer place to live, work and visit. I also hope that it will give confidence to people and reassure them that we will continue to take positive action to protect all victims of serious crime and bring criminals to justice.” Merseyside's Police Commissioner Jane Kennedy added: "Tackling serious and organised crime has always been a priority, but by securing this additional ‘surge’ funding from the Home Office, Merseyside Police can now allocate more resources to tackling the issues that matter most to our communities, and which carry the greatest risk to people.”

Borough wants lottery heritage funding for town centre project From page 1

The total combined funding pot is £2.47 million including a request of £1.62m from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The second round is very competitive and is open to bids nationally. Sefton will find out in September if the bid is successful. Cllr Daren Veidman, Sefton Council's Cabinet Member for Planning and Building Control, said: “Since we submitted our first round bid, a lot of work has been undertaken to fully develop the project including the adoption of the Conservation Area Management Plan, discussions with building owners, building property surveys and valuations, further public consultation and workshops with pro‘We really believe ject partners. the money will “If approved we enhance the links really believe the money will enhance between Lord Street and the Promenade the links between Lord Street and the reducing vacant and poorly maintained Promenade reducing properties...’ the vacant and poorly maintained properties and greatly increasing economic activity in these areas. “The project also aims to increase local knowledge and appreciation of Southport’s rich heritage and inspire future generations featuring specialist educational courses on traditional building methods, the innovative use of digital technology, as well as a mix of complementary heritage-focused activities." If successful the project will be delivered over the next five years up until 2024. Cllr Marion Atkinson, Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills, added: “The overall project aims to carry out essential conservation work, involving structural and external repair of historic buildings, the reinstatement of authentic architectural features and works to bring vacant floor space in historic buildings back into use. “Lord Street and the Promenade conservation areas provide a rich and nationally significant collection of historic buildings and landscaping. We firmly believe preserving this heritage for residents, businesses and visitors alike will contribute greatly to the town's economy while providing a strong sense of identity, local pride and community value. “It runs along the recent King's Gardens improvements, the Pier restoration, the Lord Street verandah project and other key developments in the resort.”

Another interior image of how the indoor market could look under new plans

BID boss to step down SOUTHPORT BID’s chief executive, Hugh Evans, has announced he is to step down from the role. After working as a consultant on its initial delivery, he has led the BID since 2016. BID Board members, made up from representatives from the Southport business community and levy payers, say they will appoint a replacement for Mr Evans in ‘due course’. A successful ballot held over the last couple of months resulted in a ‘yes’ vote to handing Southport BID a further five year term. However, not all traders are happy with the outcome. Robert Rix, co-owner of father and son business, The Master Barber’s Shop at the Wayfarers Arcade on Lord Street, hit out at the result. He claimed: “Southport BID is taking a second term

based on a voting turnout of less than 30%. What has really surprised me is the way in which the BID success is being promoted with a claim that 58% of businesses in the town are in favour of the BID. “From sight of the voting figures this is clearly not the case. Of the 717 businesses that were eligible to vote, only 220 actually voted and of these, eight voting papers were disallowed, such as spoiled papers. “When the Aggregate Rateable Value is taken into consideration it is overwhelmingly clear that it was the larger shops and other Business Rate paying businesses that carried the day and the smaller business rate payers were swamped by the greater sway imposed by this method of vote calculation. “I do not want anyone to

say that I am a bad loser so I will be magnanimous and wish the BID team well during the course of this next BID period. What I do object to, is the fact that we business owners already pay a colossal amount of money into the Sefton municipal coffer and we are now forced to contribute again to BID for a further five years to promote our town, a task that should without doubt be carried out by Sefton MBC.” In June, the Champion revealed that a majority of 58% of eligible firms voted ‘yes’ in the ballot to the BID (Business Improvement District) carrying on its work until 2024. All businesses in Southport within the BID area and with a rateable value of over £7,000 were entitled to vote in a process managed by the Electoral Reform Service.

Council chiefs say they remain totally committed to ensuring the market continues to operate and makes a positive contribution to the local economy as well as becoming a key visitor destination - but while the authority has been actively promoting it and trying to secure new traders along with other initiatives to help deliver a long term sustainable future for the market, the strategy has failed. The council believes the current operating model needs to be adapted to meet changing consumer and businesses demands, and are looking at options on how to build on the previous investment that will potentially deliver: • Enhanced hot food and drink offer • Self-contained food retail units • Flexible market and events space Cllr Marion Atkinson, Sefton Council's Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills said: “We really value Southport Market but sadly it has become evident that many factors are making trading conditions extremely difficult and occupancy levels continue to fall. “While we have been actively promoting it and trying to secure new traders along with other initiatives to help deliver a long term sustainable future for the market, this has sadly not worked. “As a result and building on our former investment at the market, new plans are being developed to potentially transform the building into a unique offer that will only benefit the town and the wider borough. “Nothing is set in stone and as we develop further plans over the coming weeks and months we will ensure existing traders are fully kept up to date and consulted on any final plans. “While we totally understand how trading conditions have been difficult in the market for many months, we remain committed to supporting traders throughout this exciting process and will continue to do so.” The plans appear to have the backing of at least one of the present traders - Blackhurst's butchers which has been in the market for 40 years. Owner, Tony Blackhurst, said: “Having seen the

market change over a number of years I am really excited to see the latest plans and look forward to Blackhurst’s butchers playing a key role in the market’s transformation.” He added that Blackhurst’s along with other market traders remain open. The new market strategy though drew a warning from the town’s Lib Dem leader who warned there should be ‘no more white elephants’ as far as the indoor market is concerned. Cllr John Pugh is urging the council to consult widely to avoid what he called ‘another fiasco’. He told the Champion: “Last time there was a major re-vamp traders deserted the market and the council’s losses spiralled. “We warned at the time that existing traders would be priced out and dubbed it an attempt to create Harrod’s foodhall in Southport! Despite all the spin and ballyhoo surrounding the plans, the plan bombed. “New thinking is certainly required but if the council again turns a tin ear to common sense, we will end up with another embarrassment. “We can’t mask that with lovely consultant’s drawings if the building itself is half empty. All stakeholders need to be involved this time and ambition needs to be matched with gritty realism.” l Anyone who may have an interest in the market’s plans can email tourism@sefton.gov.uk

What a carry on for Pacer trains!

The Champion has been campaigning to rid local railways of the outdated Pacer trains

THE much-maligned Pacer trains which should have been taken out of service at the end of this year, now look set to carry on running into 2020 after problems were identified with their replacements. Spanish firm CAF were paid £500m by Northern to build 101 trains. However, a problem has emerged with the new trains coupling system, which join the carriages together - apparently they are too big! according to reports. So it looks as though a pledge by Northerm Rail and the Department of Transport to rid local services of Pacers will not now be carried out as planned.

Northern has 102 Pacer trains and apart from one they all would fall foul of new rules being introduced next January for improved accessibility for disabled people. The ageing Pacers were made for buses, but placed on train wheels for use on the railways. Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, slammed the latest problem to beset Northern. He said: “Pacer trains are a symbol of the chronic underinvestment in northern transport by successive governments. The fact that passengers will still have to travel in these museum pieces in 2020 is unacceptable. “This fiasco once again underlines why the north

needs to be at the front of the queue when it comes to investment for the next 25 years, just like London has been for the last 50 years.” In a statement Northern Rail said they were reviewing when the final date would be when they could remove all Pacer trains: “We identified a small mechanical design issue that required a fix. We worked with CAF to find a solution, but this coupler problem had a regrettable and adverse impact on train delivery, testing and driver training.” The Department of Transport has commented that a ‘small number of Pacers’ may be continued to be used next year.

NEW DENTURES MP backs campaign to help tackle guide dog discrimination SOUTHPORT MP Damien Moore has backed a campaign to tackle discrimination against guide dog owners. He attended an event in Parliament organised by the charity Guide Dogs, when more than 100 guide dog owners from across the country attended to share stories of how they have been turned away by businesses because of their dog. At the event, the MP spoke to guide dog owners about the lasting impact of these refusals. It is against the law to refuse access to a disabled person accompanied by an assistance dog except in the most exceptional circumstances. Despite this, a new Guide Dogs survey found that three out of four (76%) assistance dog owners had been turned away because of their dog. Taxis and minicabs were the worst offenders – experienced by 73% of those reporting refusals in the last 12 months. Refusals at restaurants (54%), newsagents (42%) and high street shops (36%) were also common. Mr Moore said: “It was disturbing to hear how common these incidents of discrimination are for assistance dog owners. No one should be turned away on their local high street because of their assistance dog. “I support Guide Dogs’ Access All Areas campaign to tackle the ignorance that causes access refusals, and make sure businesses are held accountable when they occur.”

TRIBUTES have been paid to Kevin Cluskey - the only person to serve three times as Mayor of Sefton - who died last week aged 81. Mr Cluskey played a prominent role in local politics for more than 30 years and in his role as mayor became a popular figure in the borough. He was first appointed as a councillor for the Litherland ward in 1986, and, following boundary changes, went on to serve as a councillor for the Ford ward, which includes parts of Litherland and Bootle. He served as mayor on three separate occasions in 2002/2003, 2012/2013 and 2014/2015. He continued to serve his community until he retired last year due to ill health. In recognition of his service and as a mark of respect to Mr Cluskey, the Sefton Council flag was lowered to half-mast on Monday, July 1 at Southport and Bootle Town Halls. A spokesperson for Sefton Council said: “Kevin‘s passion and commitment to residents in Sefton meant he was a deeply valued member of the council and our communities. “Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends at this sad time” Mr Cluskey was born in Litherland and was educated at St Elizabeth of Hungary and English Martyr ’s school, and St Mary’s College.

Kevin Cluskey

After completing more than three and a half years service in the Royal Air Force, he began a 28 year career in the general construction, civil engineering, shop fitting and boat building sectors of industry. Kevin married Linda in 1966, who is the current Councillor for the St Oswald ward, in Netherton. Labour Council Leader Ian Maher paid tribute to the former Mayor and Councillor. He said: “Kevin retired from Sefton Council through ill-health. He served as Mayor of Sefton on three occasions, the only Sefton Labour Councillor to do so and was Chair of Merseyside Waste Authority, amongst many other positions within Sefton Council. As a mark of respect, the Sefton Flag will be lowered to half-mast at both Southport and Bootle Town Halls until his funeral.” “He will be greatly missed by us all and I personally have lost a friend. Our thoughts are with his family at this time.”

Tributes pour in for ‘true gent who will be greatly missed’ TRIBUTES have been pouring in for Champion photographer Martyn Snape following his death last week after a short illness. The 65-year-old, a stalwart of the Champion for more than 20 years, has been fondly remembered by residents, politicians, charity leaders and community groups. The Champion has been inundated with sympathy messages for Martyn, and we wanted to share just some of the moving tributes we have received from people all over Sefton and West Lancashire. Colin Hughes, chairman of The Royal British Legion Southport Branch offered the following:

Military honoured on Armed Forces Day

Armed Forces Day held in Southport

LOCALS paid their respects on Armed Forces Day to show support for serving troops, their families, veterans and cadets. A parade was held in Southport on Sunday, June 30 which got underway in the Princess Diana Memorial Gardens, with the Band of the King's Division leading a parade on Chapel Street before taking the salute at Southport Town Hall. Some of the notable attendees included The Lord Lieutenant of Merseyside, the Mayor of Sefton, the High Sheriff of Merseyside along with other local dignitaries.

Southport MP Damien Moore and Dukes Ward Councillor Sir Ron Watson also attended and spoke with organisers from the armed forces charity SSAFA. Also at the event were veterans from Birkdale Nursing Home - James Highton, who is a former Staff Sergeant in the Liverpool Kings Regiment and Albert Wrigley, a former Fleet Air Engineer. James and Albert arrived in style, sat in a ricksaw steered by Birkdale Nursing Home manager Jonathan Cunningham, who himself is a former Major in the army. Albert said: “It is a proud moment to be here and be part of this service. This is the first time I have ever seen a rickshaw part of a military parade. It was a very special moment for all concerned.” Jonathan added: “This event never fails to get the hairs on the back of your neck standing on end. The crowds were fabulous. I loved it when we turned the corner in our rickshaw and the crowd started clapping and cheering our veterans.” Armed Forces Day is an annual event celebrated on the last weekend of June to commemorate the service of men and women in the British Armed Forces.

Readers, community groups and politicians recall fond memories of Champion photographer Martyn Snape... “We read with regret the sad loss of Martyn Snape, your photographer of many years. I came across Martyn on many occasions both in my capacity as branch chair of the Royal British Legion and when I worked at the Southport Theatre and Convention Centre. “He is fondly remembered by all memebers of the Royal British Legion and will be sadly missed.” The deputy leader of Lancashire County Council, John Fillis, said: “I knew Martyn for many year and he covered photo shoots right across West Lancashire. It did not matter the size or impact of the event, he always brought a friendly warmth to the occasion. “He respected everyone he met and that came across in the pictures he created through his camera. Every picture told the story about local people their lives, aspirations, achievements and fears, with Martyn there to guide them through it. He was a true gent and will be missed.” Michael Dawson, founder of local history group Images of Burscough and Surrounding Areas, will hold an event in October in memory of Martyn. The exhibition will feature old photographs and other memorabilia dedicated to Martyn. Michael said: “Photographers are generally the people you don't notice behind the camera, but Martyn was the exception. You could not help but notice him, along with his friendly personality and I considered him the ‘face’ of the Champion. “I was very saddened and shocked to hear of

Martyn's passing, he will be greatly missed.” Former Mayor of Sefton Councillor Bobby Brennan said: “I had of course like many Councillors known Martyn for his coverage of events, more so when I was Mayor of Sefton in 1999/2000 when Martyn regularly attended events. “Martyn always had a smile and greeting. Sefton has seen the passing of a wonderful courteous and talented man.” Major ( Retd ) Roy Bevan MBE from Formby said: “I have just read of the very sad death of the best of the best, Martyn Snape. Over the years we have photographed at different events together, he for the Champion and me for the Military. “He was truly an outstanding person. I had expected to see him at Southport Armed Forces Day but very sadly in memory only. “To yourselves who have lost a great professional ‘from your ranks' and to his family, my condolences.” Other Champion readers have also been paying tribute, while a Champion Facebook posting attracted more than 100 tributes to Martyn. Among them, William Clarke said: “Martyn was one of life's good guys, a really genuine person who it was a privilege to have known. Caroline Holmes from Soroptimist International Bootle said: “It has been our pleasure to have met him in the past and we are sure he will be sorely missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, and to yourselves at the loss of a well respected colleague.” President of Rotary Club of Ormskirk John McCormick said: “Martyn was such a nice man, always with a smile and a glint in his eye. It will be strange not to have him as the photographer at our Rotary events which he’s been covering for years now.” Martyn's funeral will take place at West Lancashire Crematorium on Wednesday, July 10 at 11.30am. Family flowers only. Donations can be made to Queenscourt Hospice.

by Danielle Thompson A COUNCILLOR says he is concerned that ‘sizeable’ holes which are appearing in the glass canopies on Lord Street’s iconic verandahs, are a danger to shoppers and traders. Dukes Ward Councillor, John Pugh shared photographs of a large jagged gap in a glass canopy by the Trespass store, and said he was ‘horrified’ by the threat it poses. He said: “Sefton Council's officers have struggled at times to get traders to repair the famous canopies in a timely way, putting the public at risk. “I am horrified at the prospect of glass falling on people. “Council officers have pointed out that the broken glass has wires running through it to hold it in place but the missing glass must have gone somewhere. “Writing letters to owners is not a sufficient response – it would be better for the council to do an immediate repair and bill the owner afterwards, when public safety is the concern. “At one premises, where the glass has been removed, pigeons

are making their nest. It is unthinkable that this would have been allowed on Lord Street in the past. “The canopies were built to protect people from what falls from above now they are part of the problem. This is alarming.”

Reacting to Cllr Pugh’s comments, a spokesman for Sefton Council said: “There are about 200 verandah sections along the length of Lord Street and their historic significance has warranted many of these structures to be listed as national heritage assets. “We have been contacted about this verandah and following an inspection, it was deemed to be safe by our experts. “We have since written to the owner of the shop instructing them to replace the damaged glass panel as soon as possible.”

Local Tory group tightlipped on who will get their vote in leadership battle

Boris Johnson

JEREMY Hunt and Boris Johnson are battling it out to be the next Tory leader and therefore, Prime Minister - but which one of the hopefuls has the backing of local Tories. The result is due to be announced in the week of July 22, with Boris the firm favourite to land the top job. Both men have their supporters in Southport. The town’s MP Damien Moore has already expressed his support for Boris Johnson as revealed in the Champion last month. However, Tony Brough, Southport Conservative Group Leader is playing his cards closer to his chest. Refusing to be drawn on the leadership battle, he said: “I am confident that the next Conservative Prime Minister will draw from committed and able people to form a responsible and worthy administration, one capable of meeting the challenges and tests that might face our

country, while delivering the verified will and expectation of the British people.” Pressed on who might his Tory colleagues in the town be backing, he was even more evasive - declining even to say which of the two candidates the Conservative group favoured! He claimed: “I have not shared my view with my colleagues as I do not wish to influence them – not that I could anyway. I do not know how the group are voting – it is secret after all.” However, prominent Tory Councillor Sir Ron Watson is siding with Jeremy. He told the Champion: “Jeremy Hunt has had an extremely successful business career and I have been impressed with his proposals in respect of Corporate Taxation which I am sure will help businesses in the difficult years ahead. “On a political level he was first elected with a very small majority but has increased this dramatically Parliament by Parliament and he clearly knows how to

relate to people. He is our longest serving Health Secretary and we have taken a major step forward with him having persuaded the Prime Minister and Cabinet that health should also be responsible for Social Care which I would identify as being the top domestic political agenda at the moment. “At a time when public finances are under enormous strain as Secretary of State he was able to negotiate a 20 billion increase in health service spending and as Foreign Secretary he has proved that he can work effectively with his counter parts all over the world. His commitment to increase defence spending is also welcome and I feel we can be assured that it will be targeted at the right areas. “He is a proven and skilled negotiator which is crucial at this time where these qualities must be to the fore in respect of Brexit and where we still have a major task in persuading 27 other countries to make changes to which they are opposed as they wish to protect the integrity of the EU.”

Lifetime Achievement Award for Brenda TIRELESS community volunteer, Brenda Porter, was also recognised at the Merseyside Woman of the Year Awards. Brenda, 80, was given a Lifetime Achievement Award for her work to improve Ainsdale village and the surrounding area. A former Tory councillor on Sefton Council, Brenda was described by the awards’ organisers, as ‘a tireless Champion of the Community in Ainsdale’. She is shown, left, collecting her accolade at the awards.

Dog warden was barking up the wrong tree when he collared pet owner by Danielle Thompson A DOG walker who was approached by a warden and told she was acting illegally by having her pet off the lead near the Marine Lake, has spoken out to advise others they are ‘not doing anything wrong.’ Julie Rynhart, 58, who is a fulltime carer, was walking her golden labrador, Magic, at the rear of Bliss Hotel, when she was stopped by an enforcement officer employed on behalf of Sefton Council. She told the Champion: “The warden approached me and explained to me that I shouldn't have my dog off lead in this area - and that she had filmed me and now needed to book me. She then proceeded to read me my rights! “There was only one sign which I didn't see about 12ft up a lamppost which I needed to enter the ‘no off lead zone’ to see. “I refused to give my details or ID so the warden requested backup and gave out my description. But the information came back that I was, in fact, allowed to have my dog off a lead in the par-

ticular area I was in. She was told to apologise to me and to send me on my way. At which point I was very upset as I felt like a criminal! “Apparently the signs had been put in the wrong place – so be warned, you might be approached somewhere in Sefton by a warden who doesn’t even know the rules!” A spokesman for Sefton Council said: “One of our contracted officers approached the owner in good faith after seeing that her dog was off the lead in a clearly signposted area. Following fur-

ther enquiries, it was discovered that this particular area is privately regulated and does not fall under our own Public Space Protection Order. “The officer apologised and no fine was issued. “However, we continue to encourage good dog ownership and would remind all dog owners to adhere to the rules and regulations of the areas they are walking in. “If in doubt of the rules surrounding the PSPO, dog owners can easily check details online at sefton.gov.uk/gooddogcode.”

Planning Ahead Nobody likes to think about their own mortality and this is often cited as the main reason why most people do not put in place a Will. The reality is though, that if you do put a Will in place, then on your death your estate may end up in the hands of people who you would never dream of benefitting and, although rare, in the hands of the Crown. Putting in place a Will can also assist with Inheritance Tax planning and while the rules relating to Inheritance Tax have changed favourably in the last few years, with the introduction of the Residential Nil Rate Band for qualifying estates, the reality is that the Inheritance Tax allowance has remained frozen at £325,000 since 6th April 2009, over 10 years. Over that period inflation has increased by more than 36%. For the previous financial year, HMRC collected £5.4 billion in Inheritance Tax receipts with this expected to increase in future years as property prices rise.

should always be sought. It is all too common, with so much information available online, for people to try and do their own Will and Lasting Power of Attorney only for mistakes to be made which can lead to family disputes and financial consequences. Therefore, if you want to have any say on where your estate ends up, want to make sure that as much of your estate as possible ends up with your family and want to have some say over who looks after your finances and welfare if you can’t, then you should put in place a Will and Lasting Power of Attorney, prepared by a qualified and regulated solicitor. We have been established over 200 years and have the experience and knowledge to guide you through the process. We offer home visits and free storage for legal documents. If you would like further information please contact our offices or visit our website.

There are also steps you can take in a Will to help protect your estate from potential future care costs. By using trusts, assets can be protected for future beneficiaries. The average costs of a year in a care home can easily reach well over £50,000.

For further information please contact Michael Prendergast, Leanne Reeman or Carole Connell

When thinking about a Will, you should also put in place a Lasting Power of Attorney to enable people you have nominated to look after your finances and welfare if you cannot do so yourself. This covers if you were to develop Alzheimer’s or dementia in future, as well as other circumstances. If you do not have a Lasting Power of Attorney in place beforehand, you cannot put one in place once you have lost the capacity to do so and this can cause a lot of problems for you and your family.

Motoring editor for Confused.com, Amanda Stretton said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The widening of the Blue Badge scheme is a step in the right direction to help motorists with unseen medical conditions, such as anxiety and dementia â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but, this will only work if the number of disabled spaces increases. Our research found there is already a lack of dedicated parking, with an average of 34 Blue Badge holders per council-owned parking space. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Another big issue is the misuse of these available spaces, leaving those in need without a place to park. These are available for a reason and drivers should be mindful of leaving them free for people who need them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We urge drivers to do the right thing and stick to standard parking spaces. This way, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll avoid being landed with a fine.â&#x20AC;?

Members of the Southport Contemporary Arts with Southport MP Damien Moore

Arts group celebrates 10 year anniversary MEMBERS of Southport Contemporary Arts welcomed Southport MP Damien Moore to their studios to celebrate their 10th anniversary. In 2009, the artists network started from a small stall in Southport Market and they now work from two large properties on Eastbank Street. Mr Moore enjoyed a tour of their town centre Gallery, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Art Houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and their artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; studios. On their premises at Eastbank Street, SCA have the Art House gallery that provides a platform for local talented artists to showcase and sell their work. To date, they have sold ÂŁ42,000 of works on behalf of the artists. Mr Moore then had an opportunity to see the teaching side of SCA, by visiting their Clay Works and Arts Loft teaching studios on Eastbank Street. The group run a wide range of classes in painting, drawing, textiles and ceramics and currently teach 90 students a week. Joint director Norrie Beswick-Calvert said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the years, the directors of SCA have stressed the importance of giving back to the community, we now have a rolling charity programme where we make bags for cancer patients needing breast drains and fiddle muffs for dementia patients. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were very pleased to be able to show our MP Damien Moore, the scope of our organisation's work and the impact that it has on our local community. At a critical point in our forward planning, we discussed the potential growth of SCA and the variety of benefits that creativity can bring to the ever-changing nature of our town centre and Southportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offer to both residents and visitors alike.â&#x20AC;? Mr Moore added: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was encouraged by how SCA have been able to grow over the last 10 years by supporting local people and in turn, helping the local economy. Their rolling charity work for cancer and dementia patients is a credit to the way they always put the community at the heart of their projects.â&#x20AC;?

is being invited to take part in The Macmillan Mile walk, which is free and open to all ages and abilities. Lucy Holmes, Macmillan community wellbeing project manager, who has organised the event, said: “The aim of the Macmillan Mile is to give people a great sense of achievement of completing a challenge, especially when they have gone through the tough times of a cancer diagnosis. It also allows people living with cancer to keep active and feel part of something bigger than their illness.”

Hillsborough match commander to face retrial in October HILLSBOROUGH match commander David Duckenfield will face a retrial over the deaths of 95 Liverpool fans in the 1989 disaster. The Champion reported in April how a jury failed to reach a verdict on the former chief superintendent, who had denied gross negligence manslaughter. The 74-year-old, who lives in Dorset, along with his lawyers had opposed an application for a retrial but on Tuesday, June 25 this was confirmed, with a trial due to begin on October 7 at Preston Crown Court. Around ten family members were in court as Judge Sir Peter Openshaw made the retrial ruling, which followed a hearing on Monday. Ninety-six Liverpool fans died in the crush on the

Leppings Lane terrace at the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest on 15 April. The 96th victim, Tony Bland, died more than a year and a day after the disaster, and so cannot be included in the prosecution. Following the conclusion of Mr Duckenfield’s trial in April, Hillsborough Family Support Group chairwoman, Margaret Aspinall, said ‘we have still got a long journey’. The10-week trial at Preston Crown Court saw the jury deliberate for more than 29 hours but they were unable to agree whether Mr Duckenfield was guilty or not guilty of the manslaughter by gross negligence of 95 Liverpool fans.

LETTERS to the Editor Accident waiting to happen As we are retired 70-year-old pensioners, we try to keep active by walking our dogs at least twice a day along Moss Road, Southport. However, we literally risk life and limb every day due to excessively speeding cars, motorbikes and HGV vehicles, on the country road we walk along. Boy racers regularly use the road and speeds in excess of 70 MPH are not an exaggeration. I recently drove off my driveway and was subjected to hand gestures and verbal abuse even though I was proceeding at 30 MPH. The sign at the beginning of the road states max 7.5 ton, this has never been enforced and construction vehicles regularly use the road. The police do occasionally set up a speed detector van (ANPR) but this is always placed at the same two locations and always in full view of any approaching vehicles, therefore only acts as a deterrent for the times they are on location. All the residents believe that only a fatality will enable speed enforcement restrictions to be implemented, we hope we are wrong. SC & MC , Southport

Recenly in the Champion Mr Moore shared a photograph opportunity with Southport College apprentices and relates how delighted he was to be invited to the college to witness the high levels of training these apprentices receive. Now I am all for trumpeting from on high, any achievements by the folk of Southport and to shout loudly about the towns facilities, these are good things. The diversity of training courses offered by Southport College are truly astounding, please take a look at Southport

College prospectus. However, it is what Mr Moore does not refer to, which I find worrying and, quite frankly, annoying. It is the cut backs in 16+ and in adult education. Since 2009/2010 there has been a 45% cut back in adult education funding. This is not me dreaming up these figures, they are supported by the Institute for Fiscal Studies, University and College Union, Times Educational Supplement, The Guardian newspaper, I could go on. Also, in our secondary schools, design-based subjects have been taken from the core curriculum to be placed only in optional subjects. So schools in the UK do not need to include design-based

subjects at all in their curriculum. This at a time when the country is crying out for designers, engineers, innovators and technicians. My firm belief is that Mr Moore needs to have an opinion regarding educational cut backs and state clearly whether he agrees with them. If he disagrees with them, he should have the bottle to say so in print, on the radio or on TV. Last time I saw him on TV was on Prime Ministers Questions, where he sort of asked a question but in fact he was praising himself for his association with raising funds for the proposed elevators at Hillside station.

of the week

PICTURE of the week this week was taken by Ana Lucia Salvatierra, from Southport, who chose Douglas Marine in Hesketh Bank as her subject to zoom in on. The location, which includes a boatyard, is accessible by boat from the Irish Sea (via the Ribble Estuary), from the Leeds-Liverpool Canal (via the Rufford branch), and from the Lancaster Canal (via the Ribble Link), or by road. Douglas Marine Limited owns and operates Douglas Boatyard, where a full range of boat repair services and boat moorings have been provided for more than 100 years.

No incentive to shop centrally retail premises and a general dirty environment with hardly any incentive to open new shops. The Chapel Street ‘precinct’ is even more depressing. The only store keeping this area alive is Marks & Spencer and they are looking to rationalise stores, so if they go, this will be a ghost precinct. I then looked at the ‘jewel in the crown’, which is Lord Street. So many shops are shuttered and where open retailers bring their wares onto the pavement to entice customers. Remember this was the reason why Southport attracted many visitors onto the iconic boulevard with good big retailers,

but with Debenhams now going, I dread to think what the outcome is for Lord Street. I accept we are in a retail crisis but am staggered at the speed of the deterioration of Southport. In my opinion, there has been a total lack of major care and attention to litter and general upkeep and, regretfully, more policing is now needed to protect the shoppers and general unruly behaviour in the town. It is worth considering the developments in, say, Altrincham and Harrogate that have saved their towns, but I appreciate Sefton spent circa £35 million pounds on

Regarding TV licences for the elderly, I fail to see what Tony Milner is referring to in his politically motivated letter regards ‘selfless acts of courage, heroism... etc’. If he is referring to the soldiers of WWll they are mostly long gone. Those living are all in their 90s and account for a very small percentage of those over 75s who were born during or after WWII. We’ve done little of the heroism to which he refers. We are probably more renowned for bringing ‘free love’ and being the baby boomers of liberal society’ As I said in my original letter ‘stop moaning and making political mischief - most 75-year-olds will be able to afford it and those that can't should be on Pension Credit. Mr J E Marshall, Birkdale

Women’s Land Army played vital role in war effort

I recently decided to walk around Southport to assess the retail meltdown that the country’s towns and cities are experiencing. In Southport’s case it would appear terminal. When starting at the recently refurbished market hall there appeared to be 80% of the stalls empty and unoccupied with the surrounding effect of no new retail development around the area except shops that had been bordered up and smothered in litter, and no incentive for a new retailer to even look at the area. Eastbank Street is now in a similar situation with, again, shuttered

purchasing the Strand Shopping Centre, when though had a retail jewel on their patch in Southport. The upside to this situation are the very successful retail areas of Birkdale and Churchtown, where small independents are flourishing and these are pleasant places to shop, so long may it continue. There now seems no incentive to shop centrally given the depressing nature of the surrounds and the way the town is treated in terms of general dirt and litter. We may be saying goodbye to Southport. Richard Lowe, Southport

As Britain prepares to mark 80 years since the start of the Second World War, I hope the public will remember another significant anniversary – the formation of the Women’s Land Army (WLA). The WLA was reformed in June 1939, a few months before the outbreak of war, and filled the gap in the farm workforce left by the hundreds of thousands of men called up to fight. At its peak in 1944, more than 80,000 female workers known as ‘Land Girls’ had joined. The contribution made by the Land Girls and the working horses they worked alongside during the Second World War was monumental. Britain imported over two-thirds of its food in 1939 and, during the war, Germany was sinking vast amounts of shipping, in an attempt to starve the country into submission. The Land Girls and the animals that stood side by side with them ensured this never became a reality. At a critical time in our history, the Land Girls and over half a million horses played a vital role in helping to feed the nation. By 1944, they were producing 70% of our food. Today, in developing countries worldwide, women continue to work very closely with working animals, which are fundamental to food production – pulling ploughs and transporting produce. These hardworking animals support the livelihoods of millions of families and SPANA is there for them, providing the veterinary treatment they urgently need. Geoffrey Dennis, SPANA (Society for the Protection of Animals Abroad)

Hanging baskets in Lord Street are absolutely fabulous, thanks to Andrew! I wish to thank Andrew Connard of Connard & Sons Jewellers on Lord Street for arranging for our shops along the block to have hanging baskets for another year. Since the council withdrew the funding, he has sourced them and all the shops taking delivery pay the garden centres ourselves. I think this year’s baskets are the most fabulous yet and he even went to great effort and hung them himself; what commitment to the town and shops! I’m sure all of our residents and tourists will enjoy the baskets and continue to shop in our lovely town, well done Andrew! Natalie Mott, Hotter Shoes

TWO fully trained ‘therapy pets’ were surprise visitors to Ormskirk and Southport hospitals during ‘Take your dog to work day.’ Muffin and Scout visited patients on the children’s ward and stroke unit. Paediatric consultant May Ng, who owns PAT (Pets As Therapy) dog Muffin, explained: “Muffin joined our family to help my son Brendan who is severely autistic. Muffin went through two years of training to make sure he was obedient enough to be able to be completely trusted in any situation. “He had to undertake two very challenging exams to test his reactions and temperament. “Children react so well to Muffin, he can help to distract nervous little ones, or bring a smile when they are feeling tired or sad during a hospital stay. “He has had an incredible impact on Brendan and I would recommend any parent with an autistic child consider getting a therapy dog. “I have recently written a book ‘A Journey with Brendan’ which covers this subject and other issues, and may be of help to other families who are experien-

Members of the Wayfarers Barbershop Chorus performing at the event

Wayfarers Barbershop Chorus celebrate three decades of performing MEMBERS of the Wayfarers Barbershop Chorus have plenty to sing about after marking their 30th anniversary with a charity concert. Members of the chorus teamed up with the Rotary Club of Southport to host the concert at the Gild Hall in Formby, raising £1,590 for Cancer Research UK. Tony Hill, one of the organisers, said: “As per previous concerts held by Wayfarers Chorus, the event was a total sell out with the audience more than ready to be entertained. “Southport musician, Jeff Colligan, opened the proceedings with a variety of pop hits, both classic and contemporary. Following Jeff, the Gild Hall’s resident band Coun-

try Folk took to the stage with a selection of country and folk songs from Britain and America. “The first two acts having got the audience nicely warmed up, Wayfarers Chorus took to the stage for their first set. Unlike many choral styles, Barbershop is as much about the performance as the singing and the Wayfarers always set out to entertain. “The audience responded with enthusiasm to the performance, which opened with the light and harmonic Mr Sandman and concluded with the rousing Do You Hear The People Sing from Les Miserables. “Following the interval and charity raffle, the audience were

treated to a selection of songs from shows such as Cats and Chicago, by Louise Longstaff - a professional singer and it was a privilege to hear her perform. “The final performance of the evening was the Wayfarers Chorus’ second set, which again included a mix of upbeat songs and ballads and ended with Sweet Gypsy Rose, a tragic tale of love lost to adventure. “The popularity of the Wayfarers Chorus and the enthusiasm of its members suggests that it will be around, raising money for charity, for another 30 years. “If you are interested in getting involved or booking the chorus, visit wayfarerschorus.com.”

Private lives of politicians are no concern of the rest of us BORIS Johnson doesn’t want to tell me (or you) what he had an argument with his partner about. And I am not surprised. Now he is besieged by well-meaning folk who seem to think anyone aspiring to be our next Prime Minister should, in the words of his rival, Jeremy Hunt, “should answer questions on anything.” Complete tosh. I can think of several questions I wouldn’t be allowed even to ask, let alone get answers to. So far as I am aware, the basic facts are that Johnson’s neighbour, a public spirited chap, decided to record the goings-on his mobile phone, and thought it necessary to call the police. Somebody also alerted the media. And now, half the country is up in arms, reckoning that anyone who does not wish publicly to tell the world and his or her dog what a purely private argument was about is obviously unfit to lead the Conservative Party, let alone the country. You may remember that I recently referred to my two-up, two-down terraced house in Bootle - and the lovely friendly folk who were my neighbours. Well early one morning, my wife and I had a dingdong argument - and because the weather was very warm and sultry, the sash window to our bedroom was open. Anyhow, I left home to go to work in Crosby, and at lunchtime trotted back for a quick bite to eat and a chance to make up our quarrel, only to find Caroline (my wife) having a fit of the giggles. She told me that I had hardly reached the end of the street that morning before a neighbour banged on our door and told her: “If he speaks to you like that again, you come straight over to me love.” Oddly, she hadn’t found it vital to get the police round. Strangely she didn't enquire as to what we had been shouting at each other about. They thought it was none of their business - see? And now, I'm afraid, in the rather unlikely event that I should aspire to be PM, I cannot remember even roughly what the argument was about - so that scuppers my chances anyway I suppose. I agree that designer drug taking, even as a student,

can never be a good thing and whoever is accused of so doing should reasonably be asked for an explanation. Ditto criminal convictions. But it is surely obvious that a man or woman's ‘private life’, so long as it does not involve breaking the law, should surely be what it says on the tin - private? Does anybody assume that say, Winston Churchill or HM the Queen for that matter - never had a cross word with their partners? Do we demand to know chapter and verse what they were disagreeing over? Just because a well intentioned chap thought to call in the rossers on this one does not make it any the less private. And do you know, though I am as I said apparently out of step with a large proportion of the population, I honestly do not want to know. Perhaps modern-day folk would think it a good idea to have a TV programme devoted to it. We, the watchers could than be invited to phone in to say who was right, and whether it could cause a national security scandal. I’ll tell you one thing though - this episode has made me think more highly of those politicians who have sensibly kept their snouts out of what was obviously none of their business in the first place. Actually nothing is more likely to put me off my morning porridge than one of those sickly-sweet staged press photos of an prominent politician having a cosy brekky with wife or husband, their 2.4 children and the pet dog curled in its basket. Perhaps once the media has departed, wife (or husband) actually says: “Get that smelly animal out of the room!” But, you know, I don't particularly want to be told that either.

Christmas celebrations

to help unpaid carers in Sefton

A charity in Sefton is organising a Christmas party for local businesses to celebrate with their staff, which will help raise money to fund services for unpaid carers. Sefton Carers Centre, a charity which provides free advice and guidance to unpaid carers, have organised the event at the beautiful Isla Gladstone Conservatory on 14th December 2019. Tickets for the event can be purchased from the centre individually (£48 p/p) or by the table, and include a two course meal with mince pies and coffee, live bands and entertainment. 100 of the net income generated will help fund services supporting unpaid carers in Sefton. Vicky Keeley, CEO of Sefton Carers Centre, said: “This is a great opportunity for businesses in Sefton to help

support the thousands of unpaid carers living in the borough. If you are organising your work Christmas party and would you like to help support a local charity whilst having a great time this Christmas please get in touch.” If you would like more information or to buy tickets please call 0151 288 6060 or email help@carers.sefton.gov.uk Sefton Carers Centre has been supporting unpaid carers in Sefton for over 25 years and provides a range of free services for carers living in the borough. Visit www.sefton-carers.org.uk for information on all of the free services that they provide.

SEFTON’S sporting heroes have been awarded at a glittering ceremony held in Southport. Locals who are successful in their sport and proving to be unsung heroes were hailed at the 2019 Sefton Sports Awards, which took place at Southport Theatre and Convention Centre on Wednesday, June 26. Organised by Active Sefton, the awards celebrated a host of volunteers, coaches, teams or individuals from across the borough who have been successful or shown great tenacity in their sport. Hundreds of nominations were whittled down to 51 shortlisted hopefuls all looking to walk away with one of the coveted trophies. Special guest speaker and former marine, Andy Grant, from Bootle, was on hand to give a speech documenting how he fought back from adversity after he lost his leg in an explosion in Afghanistan but went on to become the world’s fastest single leg amputee. Joining Andy was host Leanne Campbell

from Radio City, who announced all the winners and highly commended sporting stars, many of whom dedicate much of their life to sport with little thanks or recognition. This year's Workplace of the Year winner, EMR Recycling, were highlighted for their ongoing work to support and assist Bootle Bucks Inclusion Football Club.

teams and schools that grassroots sport has a place in Sefton and our young people are inspired and supported when following their sporting ambitions. “Congratulations to all of our worthy winners and thank you for your commitment to sport in Sefton!” Scott Bamborough, EMR Metal Recycling Area Manager and Regional Depot Coordinator, Louise Burns, accepted their award with young Bootle Bucks players (see picture on far left). Scott said: “It was a huge pleasure to accept the award on behalf of the partnership with EMR and Bootle Bucks Inclusion FC. “It is a sincere honour to support ‘The Bucks’ with their huge success in giving every child the opportunity to play football. “It is much more than a football club – it’s a community and support network for kids, parents and carers. It is an extended family to all involved. “All of us at EMR are honoured to have been given the opportunity to be part of this family.” For more information about the Active Sefton Sports Awards, please visit the website: www.sefton.gov.uk/activesefton

Tax credit deadline reminder MORE than 12,000 tax credit customers in Sefton are being reminded to renew by the end of this month or their payments will stop. HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is reminding locals that they must renew their tax credits before the deadline of July 31. Tax credits are government payouts that give extra money to people who need it

– including those who need help to care for children, those who are disabled workers, and people on low incomes. There are around 12,300 people in Sefton who receive tax credit Angela MacDonald, Director General for Customer Services at HMRC, said: “We know that our customers lead busy lives, which is why our

online services are available day and night. Customers can complete their tax credit renewals at a time convenient to them. Renewing on time is vital to ensure that their payments don’t stop.” To renew your tax credit, visit the website: www.gov.uk/browse/benefits/tax-credits or call the tax credits helpline: 0345 300 3900

Call goes out for young people to become ‘youth consultants’ A SEFTON charity is inviting young people who live in the borough and want to improve life in their local community, to apply for key roles as youth consultants. Sefton CVS wants to appoint new members to its team of young advisors, who help local organisations to understand the interests of young people, and how to get their message across to them in a more youth-friendly way. The paid position is open to 15 to 21-yearolds and young advisors are trained to speak out for young people, to ensure that their thoughts and feelings are considered when decisions are taken that affect them. They also help organisations to ‘youth proof’ the way they operate, and to attract and maintain the interest of young people in their work. Major research and consultation projects carried out by young advisors in the past have focused on issues including youth mental

health, child sexual exploitation and how to tackle anti-social behaviour. Jo Lee of Sefton CVS, who manages the project, said: “Becoming a Young Advisor is a great way for a young person to make a real difference to life in their area. “In this role, they work alongside local services and businesses, and influence the way services are designed and delivered in the borough. “A big plus point is that the job is designed to be flexible, and to fit around educational and other commitments,” added Jo. The deadline for applications is 5pm on Wednesday, July 17. For more information ring Jo on 0151-920 0726 ext 222 or 07850 328022 or email her at joanne.lee@seftoncvs.org.uk. Application forms can be downloaded from Sefton Young Advisors website (www.sefton .youngadvisors.org.uk) and the CVS website (www.seftoncvs.org.uk).

Bright spark Richard named Electrical Apprentice of the Year! By Danielle Thompson A SOUTHPORT dad has been crowned as the winner of the Electrical Apprentice of the Year competition. Richard Bradley, 31, who is a former marine, was one of eight competitors to reach the Grand Final of the 2019 NICEIC and ELECSA competition earlier this month in Staffordshire. The final was the third stage of the contest, which saw more than 1,000 apprentices from across the UK take part. Richard studied electronics as part of his apprenticeship with the Ministry of Defence and is currently working towards his NVQ Level 3 Qualification in Electrical Installation at a local training centre. Richard said: “I was so surprised when they said my name. I thought they called the wrong person! “I don’t think I’ve ever been so shocked. I entered the competition after recently being medically discharged from the marines. I needed to find a career that was similar to the work I was doing but could also help me develop as a person and support my family. “Being a part of the competi-

further to consider taking part. You’ve got nothing to lose by taking part and you never know what will come from it. “I am still trying to get my head around the fact that I am the winner - but I am now planning a trip to Disneyland Paris with my wife and daughter.” As the overall winner, Richard was presented with a holiday voucher worth £2,000. All eight finalists were given an engraved glass trophy, an iPad and a kit bag containing an array of Scolmore’s electrical accessories.

Come Dancing favourite back for new show in 2020 STRICTLY Come Dancing favourite, Giovanni Pernice, is back with a new show for 2020. Giovanni Pernice - This Is Me comes to Southport Theatre on Thursday, March 19 2020 where the showman is once more set to light up the stage, along with his cast of professional dancers, for his fourth year of touring.

A spokesman for the Southport Theatre said: “With the Italian’s natural charm, combined with beautiful choreography perfectly complemented by a fabulous soundtrack, This Is Me pays homage to the music and dances that have inspired Giovanni’s career, from a competition dancer to one of the biggest names on the hit BBC show.”

The Wedding Singer was ‘magnificently performed’ Review by Ron Ellis THE Wedding Singer Southport Spotlights Little Theatre Southport

AFTER their success earlier in the year with Funny Girl, Southport Spotlights delighted a packed house with a superb production of The Wedding Singer as the screams and applause from the audience testified. An eleven piece orchestra, under the direction of Adam Dutch, provided a pulsating soundtrack to the music. Unlike the film, which used hits from the 80’s, these songs were written especially for the show. The flamboyantly-dressed dancers, arrayed in vibrant colours and choreographed by Jackie Morris, set the stage alight with their dexterity. Chris Rimmer, usually seen as M.D. in the orchestra pit, played the part of wedding singer, Robbie Hart, and his singing and guitar playing fitted him perfectly for the role. Robbie, having been jilted by fiancée, Linda (Lauren Millar), falls in love with Julia whom he meets at one of his wedding gigs, Natasha Proffitt making a stunning debut in her first leading role as Julia. But Julia is engaged to rich playboy

businessman, Glen Guglia, played with a sinister menace by John Delahunty. Robbie’s backing band consisted of Dom Tolley as Sammy, who gets together with Holly (Lauren King), and Rob McGregor, eerily reincarnated as Boy George for the occasion. Nicky Williams gave an impressive gymnastic performance as Robbie’s Grandma Rosie while Karen Parkinson was Julia’s mother, Angie. Two SDC stalwarts hovered in the background as impersonators, Peter Forshaw in the form of Darth Vader and Brendan Gillow masquerading as President Reagan.

The Wedding Singer is a show of almost continuous music alongside the action which moved together at a fast pace and it was a pleasure to watch a group of such talented young people put on a performance that would have graced any London stage. Southport Spotlights next production is Sunset Boulevard from February 5 to February 8, 2020 at The Little Theatre, with the summer show, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert following on July 1 to July 4. Star rating 9 out of 10. A dynamic modern musical magnificently performed.

Orchestra all set to present its annual summer concert SOUTHPORT Orchestra is all set to present its annual summer concert at the Floral Hall on the afternoon of Sunday, July 14, starting at 2.30pm. This follows the great success of previous summer concerts which are timed to enable family audiences to enjoy a range of music from the light classical to fun numbers including Food Glorious Food and Flash Bang Wallop. Last Night of the Proms numbers including Rule Britannia and the Pomp and Circumstance march will also be featured with members of the audience being supplied with Union Jacks to enable their full participation! Entitled “Proms on the Prom” the concert is aimed at a wide age range and is sure to contain something for everyone. The 60-strong Southport Orchestra will be accompanying guest soloists Louise Dickinson and Christopher Rimmer as well as the amazing 40-strong Woodlands Primary School Choir from Formby. The concert also celebrates the 10th anniversary of Jeff Rimmer’s leadership of the Southport Orchestra which he has transformed into one of the North West’s outstanding orchestras since he became its musical director. The orches-

The Ford Fiesta might not be especially radical - but it's still the nation's favourite new car

Ford Fiesta may not be futuristic but it still stands the test of time! THE future can hang on a minute. I know that we’re supposed to boldly sail – on a solar-powered catamaran, presumably – into a brave new world of labgrown, meat-free burgers delivered by drones, but right now there’s still a McDonalds on every busy road and a JD Wetherspoon in virtually every town centre. Your whole life can be conducted on Android and yet sales of vinyl records are up year-on-year. Perhaps most pertinently, for all the talk that electric cars and automation are the future, last time I looked the decidedly analogue Ford Fiesta was still Britain’s best-selling new car. At the moment all the muttering is about how the humble supermini is about to embrace zero-emissions motoring. Renault’s Zoe has been chipping away at this bit of the market for a while (don’t worry, the Clio’s still very much available), but Vauxhall is being brave and launching its Corsa in all-electric form first, and it’s a similar story for Peugeot’s latest 208. But while there is a plug-in hybrid Fiesta on the way the current range depends on a blend of rather more familiar petrol and turbodiesel engines, and it feels all the better for it. It’s as bit like Liam Gallagher – yes, it’s the same old act, and yet only last weekend it was good enough to play Glastonbury. I know because last weekend I spent 700

miles thumping up and down the British road network in a Zetec-spec EcoBoost – and, with the exception of three very minor moans, couldn’t knock it. With the current Fiesta, introduced 18 months ago, it feels like you sit on the seats rather than in them, it still lacks mid-range thump in one-litre form, and on the motorway the ride’s a bit more fidgety than I’d ideally like, but that’s about it. In other respect Ford’s taken what it had with the 2009-era Fiesta, revisited absolutely everything, and quietly made it better rather than reinventing the wheel. So while the turbocharged three cylinder engine still revels in a few revs to get results, it managed to average a fairly hefty fifty to the gallon – and I wasn’t on any sort of eco run. On the motorways it was long-legged enough to make light work of a voyage to Scotland and back – and when it wasn’t it could still entertain me on the B-roads, offering just enough feedback through its chunky, three-spoke steering wheel. Even the little things won me over; plenty of superminis integrate their stereo systems into a touchscreen system these days but the Fiesta gives you old-fashioned buttons beneath it as well, so you could flick between Joy Division and The Cure without losing the sat nav. I suspect the reason the Ford Fiesta, even when every other new car is a crossover, electric car or plug-in hybrid, is still Britain’s biggest seller is because it’s ruddy good at what it does. The Suzuki Swift might match it when comes to generating grins, VW’s Polo has a more premium feel and the Fiat 500 is a lot more charming, but it’s tricky to think of a better all-rounder.

Audi Q7 off-roader given new look AUDI has given its Q7 off-roader a new look as part of its substantial update. The five-door 4x4 is now a little longer to allow all versions to have seven seats as standard, the styling is closer to its larger Q8 sister model, and there’s now a choice of two

turbodiesels, a petrol engine and a plug-in hybrid electric motor beneath the bonnet. There’s no word on the exact UK prices or specifications yet but it’ll be available to order from September, with the first cars arriving here a month later.

The updated Audi Q7 off-roader will be available to order in September

Final pair hold out to salvage a draw for Ainsdale at Wigan

Defeats for S&B and Formby as batsmen struggle

IN the First Division, Ainsdale were held to a draw at third placed Wigan. A century from Aaron Redmond (113 inc 15x4 & 2x6), 55 from John Richardson and 33* from Jake Leyland enabled the hosts to declare 244-4 off 47 overs In Ainsdale’s reply, Mark Lucas 52 and Scott Rimmer 47 top scored before Sam White and Jan Gadzina hung on, both on nought not out, for the draw on 168-9 with Avinash Yadav taking 4-64. Fleetwood Hesketh were beaten by six wickets at home against Newton le Willows who moved top of the table. After choosing to bat first Hesketh were dismissed for 124, with Tommy Wareing 20, Irshad Desai 19, Luke Tinsley 17 and Andrew Watts 17 all making decent starts without going on to make a significant match winning contribution, whilst Sam Guest 5-44 starred with the ball. In reply, openers Peter Barnes 57 and Ben Walkden 31 top scored before Rameez Alam 22* took the visitors to victory on 126-4, with Jack Morris-Holland taking 3-39. In the Second Division, Southport Trinity moved to fifth in the table after a six wicket home win against St Helens Town.

BOOTLE remain top of the Liverpool & District Cricket Competition Premier Division table after a seven wicket win at Formby on Saturday, writes Glenn Wallworth. Formby elected to bat and were dismissed for 103 with only Tatenda Taibu 34 and Ben Aitchison 22 offering much resistance against a bowling attack led by in form Will Purser who helped himself to 7-48 off 17.1 overs. In Bootle’s reply, opener Mike Farrell hit an unbeaten 30* and Danny Davies blasted an undefeated half century (50*) to help wrap up victory on 104-3. At Wadham Road on Sunday Vishal Tripathi put in a fine all round performance hit a quality 90 from 62 balls and helped himself to 5 for 13 as Firwood Bootle posted 180 for 5 in the National T/20 against Formby and won by 12 runs to reach the area finals day at Ormskirk next Sunday. Danny Davies weighed in with 62 from 35 deliveries and featured in a very productive second wicket stand of 138 with Vishal Tripathi. Tatenda Taibu, 41, Sam Oldham, 30, James Seward, 24, Ben Aitchison, 21, and Lukman Vahaluwala, 32, made Firwood Bootle fight all the way for their victory in an excellent advert for T/20cricket. Southport & Birkdale battled hard against third placed Northern on Saturday but fell to a three wicket league defeat. S&B chose to bat first and nobody apart from opener Brad Yates 45 offered much with the willow, as Tom

Six wicket defeat for Hesketh at hands of Division One leaders Newton-le-Willows The visitors elected to bat and thanks to 88 from Craig Woods were able to declare on 178-8, with spinner Akshay Sreenivasan taking 4-40. In reply, Bobby Eyes 19 and Wim Van Der Walt 40 laid the platform for Jonny Hine to blast an unbeaten 69* and take Trinity to victory on 179-4. Hightown St Mary’s sit a place above the relegation zone after a 116 run defeat at Spring View. The hosts elected to bat and put 164 up on the board, thanks in the main to Ryan Ouwekerk who top scored with 43, whilst Matty Laybourne 4-42 and Jayden Schadendorf 3-46 both shone with the ball. In reply, only Arslan Dar 15 and Jack Pinnington 12* were able to reach double figures as the visitors were blown away for just 48, with South African Kevin Crowie taking 628 and Marc Birch 3-11.

Tatenda Taibu top scored for Formby.

Sephton 4-31 and Danny Houghton 4-57 combined to bowl S&B out for 128. In Northern’s reply, Liam Grey 26 and skipper James Cole 24* top scored as the hosts reached 129-7 to seal victory, with Gary Keedy taking 3-24. Ormskirk came out on top in a low scoring three wicket win at Leigh. The hosts chose to bat and were quickly rolled over for just 85, with spinner Tom Hartley clawing 4-18. In reply, the visitors also had a poor day with the bat but eventually wrapped up victory on 86-7 with Tyler McGladdery top scoring with 21, whilst Ryan Housley took 3-30.

This weekend’s local LDCC fixtures (1pm start): Bootle v Lytham, New Brighton v Northern, Ormskirk v Formby, Southport & Birkdale v Wallasey, Ainsdale v Rainford, Northop Hall v Fleetwood Hesketh, Hightown St Mary’s v Norley Hall, Parkfield Liscard v Burscough, St Helens Town v Maghull and Sutton v Southport Trinity.

Port fans eagerly await fixture list SOUTHPORT FC fans will be eagerly awaiting the announcement of next season’s fixture list, which is due to be revealed today (Wednesday, July 3). The top tiers of English football had their matches revealed weeks ago, but supporters of clubs in the Vanarama National League North have been made to wait until today. Port supporters will have a keen eye on a number of key fixtures as they look to avoid the mistakes of last season and get their campaign off to a positive start. Southport lost their first four games in the 2018/19 season when they became unstuck against Telford United, Altrincham, Stockport County and Chorley, so the opening matches of the upcoming campaign will certainly be noteworthy for supporters. Chorley will of course no longer appear in Southport's league fixtures after they gained promotion, nor will FC United of Manchester after they were relegated from the division. However, there will still be plenty of other fixtures to look out for, with the likes of Chester and Curzon Ashton some of the nearest opponents for Southport. Southport kick-off their pre-season friendlies next week with an away trip to Wigan to play their Under 23s side on Tuesday, July 9, 1pm kick off at The Christopher Park Train-

RECENT work on the pitch has left the main stand seating in need of a good clean say Port officials. They are now looking for anyone who can come along this Saturday (July 6) between 9am and 2pm preferably armed with a cloth and bucket to help clean the seats in the stand. Any amount of time you can give during this period will be greatly appreciated, the club says. Just turn up at the stadium and club staff will be happy to receive you. Chiefs at Southport FC are also on the look-
