BOROUGH BEGINS TO FEEL EFFECTS OF CORONAVIRUS Visiting restricted at hospitals and volunteer groups formed to help the vulnerable ... but Ormskirk Market set to go ahead as usual

AS the coronavirus begins to have an increasing effect on residents, public services, businesses and leisure activities in West Lancashire, local authorities have again sought to reassure the public.

And although there were no confirmed cases in the borough itself at the time of going to press, the epidemic has also inspired examples of community spirit with social media groups recruiting volunteers to help those who might be most vulnerable if restrictions on social contact are extended .

Meanwhile the threat of the virus being spread has prompted the Southport and Ormskirk Hospitals Trust to restrict visiting at both sites.

However, Ormskirk Market is set to go ahead as usual on Thursday and Saturday.

According to the latest figures published by Public Health England there are now eight cases of the virus in the Lancashire County Council area, including three in Chorley, two in South Ribble and one in Fylde. Information about the latest two cases has not yet been released.

Lancashire County Council's director of public health and wellbeing, Dr Sakthi Karunanithi, said: “The latest advice issued highlights that the most common symptoms of coronavirus are recent onset of a new continuous cough and/or a high temperature. Anyone with these symptoms, however mild, should stay at home and not go out from 14 days of when they started.

“You do not need to call NHS 111 to go into self-

by Henry James & Kenny Parker isolation. However, if your symptoms worsen or you are feeling no better after 14 days, contact NHS 111 online. If you don't have Internet access call NHS 111.

“The general advice to everyone remains the same, to practise good hygiene by washing your hands regularly and thoroughly, and if you cough, cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve rather than your hands before washing your hands or using a hand sanitising gel.

“I’d like to reassure people that we are doing everything we reasonably can to stop the virus spreading and ensure people are protected.”

West Lancs Council also reiterated assurance to residents that it has policies and business continuity plans in place to deal with the pressures presented by coronavirus.

Currently the authority says key front-line services are unaffected but they are “constantly reviewing” plans and services against the daily guidance they are receiving from the Government.

A meeting of the council’s Standards Committee scheduled for yesterday (Tuesday, March 17) was cancelled, due to the advice received in relation to the coronavirus.

A borough council spokesman said: “We also continue to receive updates from Public Health

M.O.T’S ONLY £29.95 BOOK IN OR WHILE - U - WAIT

Visiting is being restricted at Ormskirk Hospital.

England and we are in regular contact with the Lancashire Resilience Forum. The council will share and signpost key messages and advice across our website and social media to keep local people informed and safe in the coming months.”

Council leader, Councillor Ian Moran, added: “We are receiving daily updates from the Government and working to review our policies and services to deal with the pressures created by coronavirus. We would appeal to everyone to help us by following the guidance issued by the NHS and the Government and accessing our services online.”

Lancashire Local Resilience Forum has the primary responsibility for planning for and responding to any major emergency, including a pandemic, in the county.

The LRF includes representatives from key emergency responders and specific supporting organisations including local authorities, health and other government agencies. It is meeting on a regular basis at a strategic and tactical level to

ensure that the county is prepared to respond to any confirmed cases of COVID-19, with a focus on business continuity.

All visiting at Southport and Ormskirk hospitals will be restricted from today (Wednesday, March 18) following Government advice to avoid all unnecessary contact and travel.

Families and friends of patients with either suspected or confirmed Covid-19 infection are asked not to visit hospital other than in exceptional circumstances.

For all other patients visiting is restricted to a named individual for one hour a day. Separate arrangements will apply to the following: l Maternity and women in labour - one partner per patient. l Child inpatients - one carer per child. l Accident and emergency department - one person per patient.

PUPILS from three West Lancs primary schools visited Lancashire Police headquarters in Preston to launch a ‘mini police’ scheme being piloted in the borough.

The youngsters, aged nine to 11, from Cobbs Brow and Little Digmoor primary schools in Skelmersdale and Ormskirk CE Primary School, were welcomed by the county’s deputy police and crime commissioner, Chris Webb.

The scheme is aimed at driving engagement in primary schools, building trust and encouraging youngsters to get involved in their community.

The initial cohort of youngsters will focus on knife crime as their first topic, developing short films highlighting the issue and warning of the dangers. Upcoming projects will include one chosen by the young people themselves, in addition to an educational day organised by the force.

Deputy commissioner, Chris Webb, said: "I was really pleased to help fund the launch of the mini police project. Building safe and confident com-

munities is a key priority in the commissioner’s Police and Crime Plan and this work is already making a noticeable difference in the West Lancashire area and within the schools taking part.

“Policing alone cannot tackle issues such as knife crime and other concerns that are raised by the public and engagement across the community and investment into projects which bring people together is hugely important. I am really looking forward to seeing how the scheme progresses. The excitement from those taking part is clear to see and I am confident that they will really gain a lot from the scheme.”

Sergeant Darren Carr of Skelmersdale Police added: “This is a great opportunity for us to engage with younger children. I want our engagement with the primary schools to be long-lasting and enable us to address some other issues such as public confidence in the police, building stronger relationships with the community and future recruitment from our hard-to-reach communities.”

Borough is beginning to feel effects of coronavirus

From Page 1 department for further information.

The trust also aims to speak to the next of kin of all patients.

Chief executive, Trish ArmstrongChild, said: “As I nurse, I know these restrictions will be difficult and frustrating for many people but it is essential we do everything in our power to protect patients, their visitors and our staff from infection.

“We are asking people to limit visiting and consider other ways of

keeping in touch, such as the phone.

“We hope to restore open visiting as soon as we are advised by Public Health England that the coronavirus threat is diminished.”

Visitors with symptoms relating to Covid-19, including a cough or temperature, must not visit hospital and follow the guidance issued by NHS111..

Anyone with any symptoms relating to a stomach upset, including diarrhoea and/or vomiting, should also stay away.

Report sets out county ‘action plan’ to tackle flooding in Burscough Report by Kenny Parker A REPORT commissioned by Lancashire County Council has set out an action plan to tackle flooding in Burscough, with works to improve drainage in Redcat Lane and Crabtree Lane classed as high priorities.

The Surface Water Management Plan, commissioned in February 2018 and undertaken by Jacobs engineering consultants, is now available for the public to view online at www.lancashire.gov.uk by searching for ‘Flood report’.

Accessing data from the county council, United Utilities, and West Lancs Council, the consultants developed a purpose-built 1D-2D integrated hydraulic model, which took account of the surface water drainage network and general ground surface.

Using the model, anticipated flooding incidents were then simulated for various flood events, from those likely to happen every five years, to the extreme, once in a 100 years events.

In four of the five catchment areas mapped out it was found that the model’s results were well supported by the recorded historical incidents - with the lack of reports of flooding from Burscough Industrial Estate being the only discrepancy.

The findings were that for the once in every five years flooding events, 13 residential and 23 non-residential properties were at risk of internal flooding.

MB DC

A previous flooding incident in Crabtree Lane.

During the more extreme one-in-100 year flood events, 49 residential and 50 non-residential properties were at risk of internal flooding, with a further 239 at risk of external flooding.

Over a 100-year-period it was calculated that the costs of flooding would be £1,570,000 for residential properties and £7,767,000 for non-residents.

Jacobs concluded its report with a list of 20 actions for the local authorities and community organisations to take.

Eight were listed as high priority, seven of which were regarding works on Redcat Lane and Crabtree Lane, including drainage improvement schemes, the protection of properties ahead of any capital funded scheme, as well as engaging with Network

Rail to see whether the culvert under the railway line at Crabtree Lane could be enlarged.

The other high priority action recommended was for West Lancs Council to update its West Lancashire Strategic Flood Risk Assessment as soon as possible.

Medium priority actions included improving the reporting of flood incidents in the town; the provision of support during and after surface water flood events; support for the development of Flood Action Plans to help the community become more prepared and resilient; and for the continued maintenance of the highway drainage network and investigating of incidents.

Low priority actions include reviewing the existing gully maintenance regime In the report, Jacobs says that the county and borough councils and United Utilities agreed with the Action Plan.

A spokesman for Lancashire County Council said: “The aim of the investigation into surface water flooding in Burscough was to look into the causes of, and possible solutions to, the issues affecting the town, using the same approach of working closely with partner organisations and communities which is working well elsewhere in the county.

“We will now be working with partners and the Burscough community to progress the actions identified in the study to reduce the risk of flooding to the village in future and ensure people are better equipped to protect their properties if the need arises.”

Meanwhile a group of Facebook users in Skelmersdale have come together to look after the needs of elderly and vulnerable residents during the coronavirus outbreak.

The group formed within hours of the announcement that some sectors of the community would be advised to self-isolate or practice “social distancing”, meaning that they may not be able to access shops, pharmacies or other services they need.

Although it is called, ‘Caring for elderly people in Skem during the virus’, the goup aim to assist anyone who is vulnerable due to other health conditions and circumstances.

The rapidly-expanding network of volunteers - at the time of writing the group has more than 200 members cover almost all the town with more volunteers coming forward as word spreads throughout the community.

And realising quite that much of the community who would need assistance may not be on social media, many of the volunteers are printing off their contact details and handing them out door-to-door.

But while these are genuine offers of help, the group has said that residents should still put their safety first when dealing with people they don’t know.

Group founder, Barbara Maclean said: “Anybody who needs help can contact our volunteers who are covering the area of anyone vulnerable.”.

Contact can be made via the group’s Facebook page or by calling Barbara on 01695 726261 or Rita on 07854 550 843.

And social media users in Ormskirk and Burscough have also allied to support those affected by the coronavirus.

Administrators of Facebook community forums for Ormskrk and Burscough have teamed up to create a dedicated Facebook page, Ormskirk and Burscough Volunteers.

Laura Caunce, administrator of

NTS

Ormskirk Community Page, posted: “If you are affected by the virus and self isolating, or desperately need items you can’t get due to panic buying, or vulnerable/elderly and avoiding going out and need help, please let the group know.

“With over 6k members I'm sure there will be someone who can help.

But please do not take advantage, please only ask if you truly need something.”

At the time of writing 78 people had offered their services with volunteers from Rufford, Halsall, and Aughton.

Others with the use of vans posted separately to offer their services and a local printing service agreed to supply 5,000 leaflets to be delivered to local people to let them know about the help available, Edge Hill University has stopped all face-to-face teaching until the end of term. However, campus buildings will remain open and staff will attend work.

The library and all student support services, as well as halls, also remain open and students will still be able to have one-to-one tutorials.

The present term ends on Friday, April 3 and the summer term starts on April 27.

The university said that conferences, events, large scale visitor meetings and the Arts Centre programme have been postponed, as well as non-essential business travel.

It has also increased cleaning and hygiene regimes.

On Tuesday, Martin Mere Wetland Centre in Burscough remained open as usual.

A statement on their website read: “We have plenty of hand washing facilities around the site and lots of space to explore. We continue to review advice from Public Health England and will keep our website updated.”

West Lancashire College also remained open.

TRAINEE doctors in the North West will benefit from a new £1.8 million contract awarded to Edge Hill University and the Royal College of Physicians.

The contract means students at the university’s Medical School will soon be receiving training in leadership as well as medical education The new Postgraduate Medical Education and Leadership Development Programme, funded by Health Education England (HEE) North West, will enable up to 600 higher specialty trainees each year to undertake a module on the knowledge and skills required to be a competent clinical supervisor and an effective leader in the NHS. Julie Bridson, Head of Postgraduate Medical Education, said: “Edge Hill University has been delivering medical education and medical leadership modules for HEE (NW) for several years and we are delighted to have been awarded this contract.

“There is no doubt that the quality of the provision to date provided a solid foundation for our bid and is testament to our expertise and dedicated team of staff.

“Our programme will deliver high-quality provision that is focused on patients, with the aim of enhancing safe and effective patient care in the complex NHS to develop medical educators and leaders of the future.

“It is really exciting to be continuing and expanding our collaboration with the prestigious Royal College of Physicians (RCP) and bringing significant expertise to enhance our provision and opportunities for international expansion.”

The contract award recognises the success of the long-standing collaboration between Edge Hill and the RCP in providing medical leadership courses and programmes and extends the range of options available to doctors across the North West region.

Students at Edge Hill University’s Medical School will soon be receiving training in leadership as well as medical education.

A major advantage of the new programme is that the education can be delivered in different places in the North West, including the RCP’s new northern home in Liverpool, The Spine, which will open in 2021.

RCP president Professor Andrew Goddard said: “I wish that I had been able to access educational opportunities like this at the start of my career.

“Learning about clinical leadership not only makes us better doctors but it improves our ability to navigate operational issues in the NHS so that we can organise better services for patients.

“I’m very proud that as part of our commitment to improving health in the north as we open our first ever office there, we invest in our future doctors and their education, which will in turn improve patient care.”

The contract is initially for three years and the programme has been designed to offer a flexible modular framework that allows doctors to gain a postgraduate award (PGC/PGD) or Masters degree in either medical education or medical leadership, or combine both attributes into a more general clinical professional development framework.

Virus concerns can’t spoil Phyllis’s special day!

HAVING survived a wartime bomb, being registered blind in her 60s and suffering a stroke at the age of 98, Phyllis Free wasn’t going to let the coronavirus spoil her 100th birthday celebrations!

So although a planned party for extended family and friends had to be postponed, she still enjoyed reaching her three-figure milestone thanks to her nearest and dearest and staff at the Stocks Hall residential home in Ormskirk.

Phyllis grew up in Bootle with her parents and two younger sisters and survived the family home being bombed in the Second World War. She married husband Jim in 1959 and the couple had one daughter, Gillian. She also has two grandchildren, Lesley and Steven, and one great-granddaughter Lucy who lives in Portugal.

Active A keen cyclist in her youth, Phyllis also loved dancing and was a member of the Constance Millington ballroom formation team which is where she met Jim. She was also an active member of the church and served as a captain of the Girls Brigade with the 1st Liverpool Company at Lynwood Church, for about 30 years.

County council approves £33.4m package of highways improvements £2.54m earmarked for projects in borough

Phyllis with her card from the Queen and daughter Gillian and grandchildren Steven and Lesley.

Despite being registered blind in her 60s, she always remained independent until her stroke just before she was 98.

Due to the coronavirus situation all family members were unable to fly in and be with Phyllis but she received a host of cars, including one from the Queen and a telegram.

Daughter, Gillian said: “My mum is the best and I’m so proud of her. I would also like to thank the staff at Stocks Hall, we couldn’t have wished for a better care home for mum, they are all amazing.”

LANCASHIRE County Council’s cabinet has agreed a major programme of investment totalling £33.4m to renew vital transport infrastructure including roads, streetlights and bridges in the county.

The figure includes £2.54m set aside for work in West Lancashire.

Of the money earmarked for the borough £503,000 will be allocated to work on the Derby Street Bridge in Ormskirk.

In addition, £995,583.55 will be spent on resurfacing of A, B and C roads. This includes sections of Wigan Road, Prescot Road, and Aughton Street in Ormskirk; Course Lane, Newburgh; Guinea Hall Lane in Banks; Southport Road, Liverpool Road South, Abbeydale and Croft Avenue, in Burscough and Rufford; Rainford Road in Bickerstaffe; and Skull House Lane in Appley Bridge.

A further £205,540 has been apportioned for road surface dressing on Alder Lane/Ash Brow, Parbold; Southport Road, Scarisbrick; Meadow Lane, Lathom; Cotton Drive, Ormskirk; School Lane,

County Councillor Keith Iddon.

Westhead; and Southway, Whalleys Road and Ashurst Road, Skelmersdlae.

Other planned works include design and repair works to Moor Street railway bridge, Ormskirk, Ring O’Bells canal bridge, Lathom and Hawksclough footbridge Skelmersdale, along with traffic signal projects in Ormskirk and a toucan

crossing facility on County Road, Ormskirk as part of improvement for cyclists.

Cabinet member for highways and transport, County Councillor Keith Iddon, said: ““We have a long-term plan to improve the condition of our roads and surveys have shown a gradual improvement to the main routes where we’ve prioritised investment over recent years.

We’ll continue to maintain these roads to protect this investment, but this year we’re starting to shift more resources towards the smaller residential roads to bring them into better condition.

“We added an extra £5m to the budget in February, which will help to tackle the emerging priorities, and we’ll be working to assess and decide where that's most needed over the coming weeks.

“We look at information about casualties to prioritise schemes to make our roads safer, and will be carrying out a number of schemes to help prevent collisions, and improve junctions and pedestrian crossing facilities to make it easier for people to walk and cycle.”

Annie reckons hard work is the secret to long life - and she should know!

MAGHULL DOUBLE GLAZING

A FARM worker turned poet and author believes hard graft is the secret to long life - and she’s certainly testament to that after celebrating her 100th birthday!

Annie Harrison, a resident at Springfield Court Nursing Home in Aughton, marked the milestone occasion with a party attended by more than 60 friends and family Born on the former Nanny Goat Hall Farm on Lord Derby’s estate near Rainford, in 1920, Annie moved to Lydiate in the 1940s after getting married to late husband John with whom she had four children.

However, she continued working on the farms at Lord Derby’s estate all her life, growing corn and other produce.

Later on she wrote about her experience of growing up on the farm in a book entitled The children of Nanny Goat Hall, published in 1974. And her colourful recollections of life at the farm’s cottage were also serialised for BBC Radio Merseyside in the 1980s.

Annie, who was a member of a local Methodist church, also published booklets of her own poetry which she has sold to raise money for Age UK. And extracts of her poetry were read at her birthday celebration, where guests also joined her to sing a couple of her favourite hymns.

Improved rural mobile network deal welcomed THE announcement of a major new deal between the Government and UK mobile network operators to extend mobile coverage in hard-to-reach rural areas, has been welcomed as a boost for business, education and leisure opportunities in West Lancashire.

The ‘Shared Rural Network’ will mean that high quality 4G coverage will be available for 95 per cent of the UK by 2026.

The new plans involve four operators - EE, O2, Three and Vodafone - joining forces creating a new organisation to deliver the network. Each will be able to make maximum use of existing and new phone masts by being able to host their own equipment on them allowing their customers to access a mobile signal.

The scheme will cost more than £1billion made up of £530m from the mobile operators and a £500m investment from the Government.

It has been welcomed by West Lancs MP Rosie Cooper, who was one of 78 cross-party MPs who wrote to the Secretary of State for Digital Culture, Media and Sport last year to ask for government support for the scheme.

She said: “This is really good news for my constituents, better 4G connectivity across West Lancashire will make flexible working easier and improve access to education and leisure opportunities. It will boost regional economic growth and begin to close the digital divide that exists across the country. The mobile has become an essential tool for most of us.

“It will certainly come as a relief to many people in West Lancashire frustrated by the persistent ‘not spots’ which prevent them from carrying out many tasks which other people take for granted.”

FOLLOWING the Government announcement that borough and parish elections, scheduled to be held on Thursday, May 7 will be postponed until May next year as a consequence of the coronavirus epidemic, West Lancs Council has cancelled its planned briefing meetings for potential candidates and agents tomorrow (Thursday, March 19).

A spokesperson for the authority said: “Ahead of the 2021 elections we will be informing potential candidates and agents of any meetings taking place where they can find out more about the electoral process.”

Burglar collared after village chase Railway station was end of the line for intruder thanks to intrepid pensioner and local community

Report by Kenny Parker A BURGLAR who was collared by police following a dramatic chase through Town Green has been jailed.

Dean Spencer, 29, of Hawthorne Road, Bootle, was sentenced to 33 months imprisonment at Preston Crown Court on Monday, March 16 for burglary and assault.

Retired lecturer Jean Clarkson returned home from a shopping trip on Wednesday February 5 to be confronted by Spencer hiding behind her front door.

The intruder then pushed past the startled householder who screamed at the top of her voice alerting neighbours, one of whom, a man in his 60s, came dashing out to help despite being in his slippers.

After chasing Spencer as far as they could, Jean and her neighbour got into her car and caught up with him near to the Co-op store in Town Green Lane.

He then made a second bid to flee, heading to Town Green railway station and boarding a Liverpool-bound train.

However, Jean’s neighbour ran across the bridge shouting ‘Stop that train!’ while Merseyrail staff alerted officers at the police hub within the station.

They arrested Spencer who was still carrying a bag containing suspected stolen goods.

Jean says that although it was an ordeal, she was heartened by the actions of the local community working together to apprehend the intruder, while a customer at the Co-op who had seen the fleeing man dispose of an item in some bushes, helped to look for it.

The former Liverpool Hope University lecturer said: “When I got home from shopping in Ormskirk I walked through the front door and there was a man hiding behind it.

“I was only about a foot away from him and I was terrified. He pushed me out of the way and I started to scream at the top of my voice which brought out my neighbours.

She added: “Although I did scream a lot and it was frightening, ultimately it’s a ‘good’ story because of how the community came to my help. My neighbours, the people at the railway station at Town Green, the people in the Co-op in Aughton, and the police were all fantastic.”

Positive “I and one of my neighbours - who had his slippers on! - went off in pursuit, eventually ending up at the railway station where the burglar had got on a train.

“Fortunately, the police were staffing the station at the time because I don’t think we could have carried out a citizen’s arrest - it was all very dramatic.”

Despite the trauma of the incident, Jean believes the outcome was a positive one because of the reaction of her neighbours.

Martin Mere news

Boxing hares mark the arrival of spring The sun has been shining and daffodils have started to appear, spring is definitely in the air. Spring is a great time to see brown hares at Martin Mere. During March and April, hares can be seen having ‘boxing matches’ as well as leaping about and chasing each other. However, this isn’t two males fighting. It is often a female fending off the attention of a male during courtship. This behavior gave rise to the phrase ‘mad as a March hare’!

Brown hares are often seen on open arable farmland and grassland with sheltered areas of long grass. This is because unlike rabbits, hares do not burrow but instead they create shallow depressions amongst long grass known as forms. This makes the wet grasslands of Martin Mere a perfect habitat.

The brown hare is Britain’s fastest land mammal and although they are generally nocturnal and will spend most of their day hiding in a form, if they are disturbed you will be able to see them running at speeds of up to 45mph, often in a zig zag pattern, using their powerful hind legs to propel them forwards. One of the best places to see hares at Martin Mere is plover field, which is visible from the United Utilities hide. They can also be spotted from Ron Barker hide and from our new Gordon Taylor hide, which has views of woodend marsh.

Breeding of brown hares takes place between February and September; females can have up to four litters per year with up to four young per litter on average. The young are known as leverets and they are born in the open, with a full coat of fur and open eyes. Forms are used by the females to give birth to young, and the forms may be lined with fur which the mother plucks from her own coat. The female hare looks after the leverets on her own.

The brown hare is thought to have been introduced to Britain during the Roman times, but it is now considered a naturalised species. Brown hares are larger than rabbits; they have large powerful hind legs and their longer ears have distinctive black tips. The brown hare is protected in the UK under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981 and they have a species action plan under the UK Biodiversity Action Plan.

If you’re visiting us over the coming weeks, be sure to look out for brown hares during your visit. Other mammals you could see in the spring include roe deer and even the occasional mole. Every Friday in March, we have two free guided walks per day. Join one of these walks to hear all about the history of Martin Mere and see what wonderful wildlife you can spot as you walk around the site.

WELCOME TO THE MOST LUXURIOUS BUT INEXPENSIVE BATHROOM SHOWROOM IN SOUTHPORT

WHAT DO WE OFFER THAT OTHERS DON’T?

THE Liberty Centre in Ormskirk, the domestic abuse charity for West Lancashire, is one of 11 organisations in the county to receive funding for projects that help to tackle knife crime.

Community groups and third-sector organisations were invited to bid for up to £20k from a pot of £180k set aside by Lancashire’s Police and Crime Commissioner, Clive Grunshaw from the Home Office knife crime grant. This is being used to support operational policing activity, community engagement and equipment including knife bins and metal-detecting arches and wands.

The Liberty Centre based at Church House in Park Road, Ormskirk, won £15.5k funding for its ‘WOW Programme’ which targets young people who have disengaged with school or are demotivated and more susceptible to involvement in anti-social activity including violence.

Chief Inspector Steve Anderton, Operational Knife Crime Lead at Lancashire Violence Reduction

• Personal service backed by 50 years in the business • Free Home Planning

Unit, said: “The Home Office knife crime fund has supported a multi-layered approach to reducing knife crime. Community and schools projects work to help to reduce the likelihood of children and young people becoming involved in violence and knife crime, keeping our young people safe.

‘Other police initiatives -like metal-detecting knife arches, hand-held metal-detecting wands, stop and searches, and knife bins - take knives off the streets.

‘It’s great news that we have been able to support 11 initiatives across the county. We are working closely with the community groups and third-sector organisations involved to ensure they help our communities to become safer places to live and work.

Clive Grunshaw added: “I’m delighted that we’ve been able to invest in so many projects that will help tackle the cycle of knife crime and serious violence across Lancashire through diversionary and targeted interventions.”

WEST Lancs Council is backing a new initiative to cut bills for local retailers.

The Government has announced it is increasing the business rates discount for small retail businesses from 33% to 50% and extending the discount to eligible music venues. An additional £1,000 discount will also be provided to eligible small pubs. The discounts will come into effect from April 1.

Councillor Adam Yates, the council’s portfolio holder for transformation and resources, said: “Local businesses are the lifeblood of the West Lancashire

economy and play a significant role in making our borough a great place to live, work and visit. Given the current challenges facing pubs and bars nationally, they need all the support we can offer and we are pleased to be able to pass this benefit on to them.”

Dave Coyle, chair of Ormskirk Business Action, commented: “This will be a great help for the local economy and businesses investing in the area.”

More information about the discount is available on the council’s website.

Police re-new appeal for Burscough TOWN COUNCIL information in case of murder victim who sought £50,000 COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE help at Bickerstaffe home LEVY AWARD SCHEME BURSCOUGH TOWN COUNCIL

Burscough Town Council at its meeting on 12th February 2020 resolved to make available to non-profit making organisations, charities, clubs etc. within the area of Burscough an amount of up to £50,000 of its Community Infrastructure Levy funds.

The Government lays down specific criteria as to what this money can be spent on, therefore any applications for this award must strictly adhere to these criteria.

Report by Kenny Parker DETECTIVES investigating the kidnap and murder of a man who turned up at a home in Bickerstaffe pleading for help have released an image of a man they want to speak to.

Polish national Tomasz Samel was taken from his home in, Handsworth, West Midlands on March 27 last year by men purporting to be officers from Interpol.

The 45-year-old was ‘escorted’ to a white Peugeot Boxer van displaying the registration OY55 MVT, before being driven away at around 8.45am.

Fourteen hours later, at 10.45pm, Mr Samel banged on the door of a property in Bickerstaffe - some 90 miles away - suffering from 75 per cent burns and desperately seeking help.

‘Horrific attack’ He was taken to hospital by ambulance but died on June 21 in a specialist burns unit at Whiston Hospital, near Prescot.

Now West Midlands Police have released an image of Kevin Wooden who is wanted in connection with Mr Samel’s kidnap and murder and are appealing for anyone with information to contact them.

They are also appealing for help in tracing the Peugeot van.

Above: Kevin Wooden who police want to speak to.

Right: The Peugeot Boxer van which officers are also appealing for help to trace.

Two men, aged 29 and 28, were arrested last year on suspicion of murder and conspiracy to kidnap, and a woman, aged 31, was arrested on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. All three have been released while enquiries continue.

DCI Scott Griffiths, who is leading the investigation, said: “This was a horrific attack, and although these arrests were a significant development in our investigation, a year on we are still working tirelessly to understand exactly what happened on that day and why.

“As we approach the anniversary of Mr Samel’s kidnap, we have released an

image of Kevin Wooden who we urgently want to speak to.

“We have reason to believe Wooden is currently out of the country and we are urgently appealing for anyone who has any information to contact us.

“We’d also appeal to members of the Polish community in the UK to come forward and help us with any information they may have.

“It may be that people are reluctant to give information, but they can give us information in complete confidence."

Anyone with information is asked to contact police via Live Chat at west-midlands.police.uk between 8am and midnight, or call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

There is also a timetable laid down for the expenditure of this money, which in this case must be spent by 30th October 2021.

Organisations who have a project in mind which they think could benefit from such an award should contact the Clerk to the Town Council on 01704 894914 or email Jackie.maguire@burscoughpc.org.uk

College careers fair attracts 1,500-plus pupils and students Report by Henry James MORE than 1,500 local school pupils and college students attended West Lancashire College’s seventh Interactive Careers and Progression Fair to mark National Careers Week.

Held in conjunction with Future U, an Office for Students-funded Uni Connect Project designed to create more opportunities for young people who traditionally wouldn’t consider higher education, it gave local youngsters the chance to connect with industry and engage in activities with more than 70 employers, universities and organisations from a wide range of sectors.

The young visitors had the opportunity to find out about new careers, talk about their future options and also view the wide range of apprenticeships, job vacancies and degrees on offer.

Employers and universities from across the North West attended to provide a range of interactive activities for pupils to get involved.

‘Inspirational’ Exhibitors included: Army Reserves; Burrows Lane Farm; CCG; Chester Zoo; CPUK; Co-op Bank; Future U; GP Federation; Graylaw International; Home Instead; Hotter; Ibstock; Kammac; Keep Moat; Lancashire Fire and Rescue; LSC Training Hub; The Royal Navy; NHS; NSG (Pilkingtons); Peel Ports; Pepsico; The Police; Generation Medics; Stocks Hall; The Sewing Rooms; St Richard’s Primary School; Trelleborg; The Vella Group; Uclan; Virgin Care; West Lancashire Borough Council; Wigan Athletic NCS; and Manchester, West Of Scotland, Salford, Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores, Manchester Metropolitan, Cumbria and Edge Hill universities.

One of the 1,500-plus young visitors to West Lancashire College’s Interactive Careers and Progression Fair chats to a representative of one of the many exhibitors at the event.

Principal of West Lancashire College, Denise Williamson, said: “We were delighted to host our seventh Interactive Careers and Progression Fair.

Raising the aspirations of young people and helping them to get better connected to their future career is at the heart of what we do at West Lancashire College.

“The fair was a truly collaborative and inspirational event with the college, schools, universities and employers working together to stage a fabulous extravaganza of career opportunities and hands-on activities.

“To see more than 1,500 young people being both curious and engaged in their potential future careers was so rewarding. A big thank-you goes to Future U for funding the event and the employers and universities who made it so successful.”

Authorities urged to raise awareness of advice on how to reduce cot deaths MP adds her voice to charity’s campaign WEST Lancs MP Rosie Cooper has joined baby charity The Lullaby Trust in urging local authorities to ensure parents receive information on how to sleep their baby safely, as research shows the number of cot deaths in the North West is much higher than the national average.

The call came as part of Safer Sleep Week, the charity’s annual campaign to raise awareness of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) also known as cot death, and the steps parents can take to reduce the risk.

According to the latest figures from the Office for National Statistics, while the overall SIDS rates in 2017 for England and Wales showed a 16% decline since 2016 and a 33% overall decline since 2008, the rates in the North West have fallen more slowly and are amongst the highest in the country and higher than the national average.

There were 30 unexplained infant deaths in the North West in 2017, compared to a regional average of 18.3.

Jenny Ward, CEO of The Lullaby Trust.

A national survey of more than 7,000 new parents conducted by the charity found that a third of parents in the region were not aware of one of the most vital pieces of safer sleep advice, namely to always sleep a baby on their back. Since this came into public awareness with the Back to Sleep campaign in 1992, the rate of SIDS deaths has dropped by 82%.

The survey also showed that 48% of new parents in the North West have put their baby in an unsafe sleeping environment to

get them to sleep for longer, including a parent co-sleeping with their baby on their chest or on a sofa or armchair. An adult falling asleep on a sofa or armchair with a baby increases the risk of SIDS by up to 50 times.

Chief executive of The Lullaby Trust, Jenny Ward, said: “Although we’ve come a long way in reducing SIDS rates, more needs to be done to ensure that all parents and carers in the North West are aware of the importance of following safer sleep practices for every sleep day and night. We strongly urge local authorities and health trusts to help us bring down the number of deaths in the North West by ensuring safer sleep messages consistently reach all families.”

Rosie Cooper added: “It is vital that parents are receiving the best advice and support for caring for their babies and are made fully aware of the best way for babies to sleep and I urge local authorities and health bodies to provide that advice and support to new parents.”

Trust appoints new director of nursing THE Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust has appointed Bridget Lees as new executive director of nursing, midwifery and therapies.

Her appointment brings Bridget - who was educated ‘just down the road’ from Southport Hospital at Christ the King Catholic High School & Sixth Form Centre in Birkdale - full circle.

Bridget said: “It’s a true privilege to be appointed executive nurse of the hospitals which serve my home town. It’s very personal too.

LETTERS to the Editor

‘Snowflake generation’ need to lead from the front to be taken seriously on climate change IN my book, Arkwright, Brunel, Crompton, Hargreaves, Macadam, Telford, Tull etc. were amongst the brightest of the bright in the 18th century yet, according to D. O’Hara (Letters, March 4) they had the temerity to want to improve the lot of their fellow man and, in consequence, helped create the Industrial Revolution and are, therefore, directly responsible for the creation of global warming!

Why not go the whole hog and blame the first caveman who rubbed two sticks together and started smoke pollution eons ago?

The biggest source of pollution over the 100 years has been the motor

vehicle. Does he sincerely believe that Americans will feel any obligation to right the ‘wrongs’ of Henry Ford, a nation that is led by a bouffant buffoon, who doesn’t even accept that such a thing as global warming exists?

Mr O’Hara does, however, make one or two practical suggestions which he might well consider forwarding onto the odious Saint Greta. Perhaps she might suggest to others of her generation, that they try walking or cycling to school.

Any students who live within say, a three-mile radius of their school, could put their collective feet where their mouths are. That would help put

a stop to the twice-daily school run.

She might also suggest that others of her persuasion will refuse to fly or cruise to go abroad on holiday with mummy and daddy. Bet those ideas go down like a lead balloon.

The snowflake generation need to lead from the front if they wish to be taken seriously by their elders. Stop blaming everybody else and start making your own contributions.

P.S. I trust Mr O’Hara will be walking or cycling into Ormskirk to do his shopping!

Getting rid of bus shelters not such a bright idea WHOSE clever idea was it to get rid of the bus shelters in Parliament Street, Up Holland? Obviously they don’t have to stand in the rain and wind awaiting the arrival of the bus.

I did hear that this was brought about because someone thought they were an eyesore. If you want eyesore then look at the road situation - i.e. potholes and road surface in Parliament Street and Grove Road!

Also, what about the overgrown banking along these roads? Or the

Town’s litter-strewn verges and hedges are an embarrassment I AM finding it rather embarrassing when driving or walking around Skelmersdale because of the amount of litter on the grass verges and trapped in the hedges.

There are miles of plastic bottles, drink cans and other rubbish just lying there. The council obviously doesn’t care or they are waiting for summer so the grass will be long enough to hide the problem.

I know the council didn’t put it there, it is the lazy public who cannot be bothered to take their rubbish home and just throw it out of their cars.

It is an offence to litter so those people are committing a crime. It looks unsightly, it’s bad for the wildlife and surely a public health issue.

So, come on council, please tidy up the area and people please take rubbish home with you.

Chris Gradwell, Up Holland.

University staff and students inspired by founders of bereavement charity for men

STAFF and students at Edge Hill were inspired by founders of a charity for bereaved men who shared their stories of overcoming heart-breaking loss as part of the university’s month-long campaign to promote health and wellbeing.

Dan Cross and Efrem Brynin, directors of the StrongMen charity and participants on SAS: Who Dares Wins, spoke about the devastating loss they experienced, highlighting the connection between mental and physical health and the importance of looking after both.

Dan’s wife Nikki was stabbed to death by an intruder in the family home and Efrem’s son James was killed while serving in the British Army.

Speaking at the event on campus, Dan explained how he was working away when an intruder broke into the family home, stabbing his wife to death. His two young children were abducted but quickly rescued by the police.

‘monstrosities’ built off Parliament Street overlooking the golf course - and there is planning permission to build another one!

Why not build two more bus shelters where they are needed and would be more in keeping to the area?

West Lancs, you are a disgrace.

At the bottom of Parliament Street there is a plaque introducing ‘Historic Up Holland’, surely this should be changed to ‘Hysterical Up Holland’!

Dan Cross and Efrem Brynin.

He said: “I suffered mental health problems after my bereavement. The anxiety meant all I could think was ‘it’s going to happen again’.

I didn’t even want my children to go to school. I was diagnosed with depression about six months later; I felt like I didn’t have another happy day to come.”

Efrem, whose son James was 22 when he was killed in Afghanistan, said: “I still remember what we were doing that day, And then everything just changed. Our lives fell apart. I was a little bit lost, I am still a bit now.”

Dan and Efrem seek to reach other men experiencing bereavement and their charity StrongMen provides free weekend breaks incorporating physical activity, advice from experts and an opportunity to share experiences and feelings.

Sonya Clarkson, HR director at Edge Hill, said: “Staff and students who attended their talks were keen to learn more about the links between physical wellbeing and mental health and felt inspired by their stories.

“Aiming their work at men and bereavement, they give an insight into ways men can talk openly; asking for help is not a failure.

Their courage to speak so willingly about their journey is one that will make a difference.”

MP supports calls for parents to talk about online safety with kids ROSIE Cooper is supporting a campaign calling on parents to discuss Internet safety with their children as research shows that one in four youngsters were subjected to online hate in a one-month period.

The West Lancs MP joined more than 1,000 schools, charities, and businesses on Safer Internet Day to pledge support for making the Internet a safer place for children and young people.

The globally recognised celebration promoting safe and positive use of digital technology for children and young people was marked in Parliament with an event co-ordinated by the UK Safer Internet Centre (UK SIC).

Targeted Research by UK SIC carried out in December last year revealed the Internet is a fundamental part of young people’s identity, and that online experiences are an essential part of who they are offline, with 38% saying it’s easier to be themselves online than offline.

Despite the positives the Internet can bring though, UK SIC found a quarter (25%) of 13 to 17-year olds had been targeted with online hate in the previous month because of their gender, sexuality, race, religion, disabil-

ity or gender identity, with 45% of disabled teens and 32% of BAME teens reporting this.

According to the research 62% of children aged eight to 17years-old said they are more careful about what they share online because of people being mean based on who they are.

Rosie Cooper welcomed the work being done by the UK SIC and called for everyone to play their part in making sure children and young people are safe

online. She said: “Internet Safety Day is a fantastic initiative. The Internet is a great tool for both parents and children but it is important that parents feel safe about what their children are able to do online.

“It isn’t about censorship but about sitting down as a family and talking about how to stay safe online, what websites are suitable viewing and how to tackle issues such as cyber-bullying.”

UP TO 50% LESS THAN A NEW FULLY FITTED KITCHEN by simply replacing the doors and worktops

Members of Scarisbrick Hall School’s rugby squad with Rohan Rensburg (back row centre).

Springbok star’s pep talk for school rugby squad BUDDING rugby stars at Scarisbrick Hall School were given tips about how to succeed at the higher levels of the sport when Sale Sharks and South African Test centre Rohan Janse van Rensburg joined them for a training session and pep talk.

The visit gave the youngsters the chance to learn more about life as a professional player.

Rohan Janse van Rensburg said: “I had a great time meeting the young players at Scarisbrick Hall School, and chatting to them about sport and the positive impact it can have. I hope we have inspired some future athletes, and maybe some future Sharks, and hopefully the tips help them become better players.”

LANCASHIRE Constabulary says it is leading the way in the North West by announcing the launch of a new recruitment pathway to become a detective.

The new Detective Entry Programme means that within two years of entering the police force, successful applicants will become trainee detectives investigating some of the most serious crime in the county.

Under the new programme, the constabulary is looking to recruit 75 new detectives to the force. Initially joining as student police officers, successful applicants will complete a structured develop-

ment programme which will enable progression to the role of Detective Constable.

Assistant Chief Constable, Joanne Edwards, said: “With a number of planned recruitment initiatives over the next three years this is an exciting opportunity for growth.

“The aim of the Detective Entry Programme is to attract talented individuals who may not have considered a career as a police officer, but could have the skills needed to become an excellent investigator”.

Applications opened on Monday (March 16) and close on Friday April 3. To find out more visit www.lancashire.police.uk/joinus.

Coronavirus advice could see me grounded and silenced!

SUPPOSE it must be time that I jumped on the coronavirus bandwagon - or perhaps I should say ‘bus’.

We are being told that we should avoid large gatherings of people and public transport has loomed large in that connection but what if, like me, you use buses a lot, for work and for shopping? I suppose you can select a seat the furthest away from any other passenger - until the next stop when the Law of Sod says a whole gang of suspect folk will board and sit all round your little selfquarantined area.

And for that matter, has any thought been given to the unhappy driver of the vehicle? He or she has perforce to speak to anybody getting on their bus. Does the poor gentleman or woman get danger money I wonder. I don’t know and I bet they don’t either.

Anyway, no-one that I’ve heard spouting about ‘self isolation’ had mentioned people like me - living alone (if you discount dogs Tina and Cinders who in any case increase the problem by selfishly demanding dog food each day which has to be purchased and carted home by guess who?)

Apparently I am ‘at risk’ by being 73 years old. I know I had a heart attack four years ago but no trouble since so hopefully I at least don’t qualify as having ‘underlying’ afflictions.

Someone on the radio just now was going on about how we all (except the elderly I suppose) should keep an eye out for folk such as me. Now there again I have a problem. After my heart trouble I was pestered for a couple of weeks after I’d gone home by two no doubt well-meaning women who kept popping up to see how I was doing.

It ended after I put a note in my front room window (they’d peer through to see if I was OK if I didn’t get to the front door within seconds). Anyway, on this occasion I left this note which read “I’m not dead, I’ve gone shopping.”

And it worked! One more visit to tell me how much they had been amused by the note and never came again.

Mind you, it’s as well that I have some good friends (and neighbours) that I could phone if I was really poorly because the advice I listened to on the radio just now commented on how everyone’s connection to various social media made things that much more easy. Already I’ve found multiple things, from cheap train tickets to mail catalogue items, for which you have to apply via the Internet or else lose out. Now it seems if you are not computer savvy (and I’m not proud that I am not) that’s your own silly fault and you can die gracefully on your own.

Indeed, if the flow of ‘Dog’ columns suddenly dries up it’ll be because I have the coronavirus. For since I could not use the bus to get my prose to Southport or to a friend’s home to put it on email, or even to get it to a ‘snail-mail’ box, I would effectively have been silenced. And you at the back can stop mumbling “good thing too” as well.

I have a fridge-freezer full of food (I had that before the virus appeared so stockpiling I have not been doing). I have four unused bog rolls and might even buy another four (!) and I have three or four bags of various pasta.

The other day I was behind an elderly lady (certainly older than me) who had a dozen, two-litre plastic bottles of milk. It wasn’t asses’ milk either but the ordinary cow variety. It struck me that by the time she’d stored that lot in her freezer there was probably very little room for anything else like food for example. Still, each to his or her own I suppose.

And there is one truly great advantage in being ‘elderly ’. Assuming we’re still alive and kicking this time next year, we oldies will be the first (perhaps the only) ones to get the vaccine jabs for free when they have finally managed to find one.

So who will be laughing then, eh?

THE SDC ’s Youth Theatre performed the children’s classic Swallows and Amazons last week at The Little Theatre.

This story by Arthur Ransome follows the Swallows John Walker (Guy Tatler), Susan Walker (Hannah Thompson), Titty Walker (Georgina Abram), and Roger Walker (Zac Rogers) who are in the Lake District on holiday and sail on their own to an island, and began a war with rival children called the Amazons. They are then accused of a crime they did not commit.

This was shown through the use of the song Boxes, which

opened the play.

All the children, from the youngest to the oldest, performed expertly, and brought the scenes to life.

The director, Paul Wilkinson, had managed to get the best out of the young actors.

The show also had a good

This was an interesting two hours at the theatre, and a credit to the young people who were involved in bringing this show to the stage. 9/10

HONOURABLE CHAP REMOVALS ISOLATED & NEED SHOPPING?

We are currently contacting all major supermarkets requesting that they earmark essential items for the elderly during this time of need. Not everyone has access to home delivery and the internet so If you are in self isolation or feel vulnerable we want to help!

This is a non profit offer. All we ask is that you pay for the face value of the goods upon delivery. We all hope that this crisis is short lived but in the meantime I want to help as much as I can. We are opposed to panic buying and hoarding so if you are legitimately in need please do not hesitate to call me.

For those that can’t, we can.

FERRARI’S halted its production lines, Honda’s being asked to help make medical ventilators and the TT’s been called off. I would suggest going to The Winchester, having a nice pint and waiting for all this to blow over…but we’ve been told we’re not allowed any more.

Apologies for the rather doom ‘n’ gloom introduction, but it’s fair to say that the Coronavirus outbreak has hit the car industry particularly hard in the last weeks. Which is why I’m delighted that Rolls-Royce has decided it’s the ideal time to launch a new model that looks like it’s escaped from the set of The Great Gatsby.

There aren’t any official images yet – just a couple of arty, and no doubt slightly exaggerated, sketches – but essentially the chaps at Goodwood have taken the already rather showy Dawn, made it less practical, taken out the back seats and decided to charge a bit more for the privilege.

The less-for-more approach has already worked a treat for Porsche with the 911 GT3 RS, and at a (slightly) more affordable level, for Renault with the two-seater Megane Trophy R. In fact, Ferrari, when it

is making cars, managed with the FXX to charge inordinately wealthy petrolheads for a vehicle they couldn’t use on any road or any race series. Surely Rolls-Royce, of all carmakers, is in a position to do something similar?

The Dawn Silver Bullet is based on the standard Rolls-Royce Dawn, but it’s been given a showier, two-seater body, which is going to be finished in what its makers say is an ‘ultra-metallic’, bespoke silver paint job. Apparently, it’s inspired by luxury roadsters from the 1920s and is targeted directly at ‘today ’s non-conformists and pleasure-seekers’. I can already picture the yachts and private jets in the brochure.

It’ll only be making 50 of them, and should you have a big enough Instagram following to be able to afford one then the idea is that Rolls-Royce will then come up with suggestions for soirées in the South

of France where you can lap up the sunshine with fellow Silver Bullet owners assuming any travel bans have been lifted by then, at least.

It’s hedonistic, expensive and completely out of step with a Britain that’s effectively been asked to shut up shop – which is why I can’t help but love it. It’s as in tune with the times as a sculpture made out of bog roll, but in these weird, topsy-turvy times it’s good that someone is still making cars clearly designed to go on children’s bedroom walls, that makes people smile.

It’s not even remotely sensible – but sometimes a car that’s entirely wrong is also entirely right.

Something to discuss down at The Winchester, anyway…

SPORT Remaining fixtures in doubt as football left in limbo during virus outbreak THE remaining fixtures for Skelmersdale United and Burscough are in doubt after a decision was made to suspend all North West Counties Football League fixtures until further notice with immediate effect.

Following the Government’s announcement on Monday, March 16 that all non essential social contact should stop immediately due to the coronavirus outbreak, the League Management Committee has agreed it has no alternative but to suspend all matches.

A spokesperson said: “Obviously none of us know what will happen next but we will keep monitoring the situation and report back when we receive guidance from the FA and other authorities.

“We would like to wish all players, officials and supporters of our clubs and league well during this difficult time.

“For more information on the Coronavirus please see www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/. If you think you need medical help due to the Coronavirus, please see https://111.nhs.uk/covid-19.”

As it stands, both Skelmersdale and Burscough would avoid relegation if the league is cancelled altogether.

Hanley Town currently occupy the only relegation spot in the division, with local side Litherland Remyca also above the drop zone.

If the league is resumed at a later date, Skelmersdale would still be unlikely to go down as they are nine points ahead of Hanley, but Burscough would still have work to do as they are only five points clear.

Linnets suffer heavy defeat in final match before league is postponed over coronavirus Runcorn Town 5 Burscough 0 IT was an afternoon to forget for Burscough after they conceded five at Runcorn Town, writes Neil Leatherbarrow.

The Linnets fell to only their third defeat of 2020 - and their third loss in their last nine matches - on Saturday, but it was a big one.

Runcorn, in seventh place, had to win to stay on the heels of the promotion race and showed no mercy by putting four goals past the Linnets in the second-half.

Manager Nick Matthews retained the same starting eleven that had taken a point from promotion chasing Ashton Athletic last weekend.

The hosts took the lead in the 14th minute when Kieran Holsgrove beat Linnets goalkeeper Dave Jones from the penalty spot. The penalty was awarded after a collision that saw the offending Burscough player on the floor when he

handled the ball. Burscough were well in the game until two goals in a two minute spell seven and eight minutes into the second-half gave them a mountain to climb.

The two goals were very similar, both from left wing crosses by Kevin Exell and both converted by Craig Cairns.

The first one arrived after the left winger beat two Linnets defenders and crossed to

the far post, the second giving Cairns the space to round keeper Jones before slotting into an empty net.

The Exell and Cairns combination put Burscough to the sword and when the two worked their magic again on 67 minutes to make it 4-0. The blow killed off any lingering hopes of a Burscough recovery.

Former Skelmersdale player Joe Holt initiated the move that led to goal number four with a cross field ball that allowed Exell the time and space to put another pinpoint ball to Cairns who completed his hat-trick.

Runcorn rubbed salt into Burscough’s wounds five minutes from the end with a fifth goal. A right wing corner was only partially cleared by Burscough and was played across goal by Shaun Weaver to Leon Wright who pulled it back to number five Marcus James who poked it into the net.

It was a bad day for Burscough, who now have time to lick their wounds. The Linnets are left five points above Hanley Town who occupy the one relegation position, and both teams have eight games left to play.

Badminton side miss out on unbeaten season

Blu Holgate helped secure one of Edge Hill’s points in the Northern Conference Cup Final

AS the sporting season winds down at Edge Hill University there was a huge fixture for the only team to reach a cup final.

The all-conquering badminton men’s firsts squad had won all 14 of their fixtures - but they fell just short in their bid to complete the BUCS season with a perfect record as they went down to Hull firsts in the final of the Northern Conference Cup in Durham.

pions of Northern Tier 2 - a division above the Greens - proved a level above as they ran out 6-2 winners.

Kieran Waters (singles) and Matthew Latham and Blu Holgate (doubles) claimed Edge Hill's points, but it was not enough to secure the silverware. However, the squad can reflect on a memorable campaign, the best in the history of the university’s badminton teams.

the women’s squads, however. The firsts went down 8-1 at Chester firsts in Northern Tier 2, Meg Burns scoring in the first half, while the women’s seconds failed to make it a fifth successive win as they went down 3-0 to Chester seconds in Northern Tier 5.

In football, the women’s firsts rounded off their league-winning campaign unbeaten although they were made to work in a 4-4 draw with UCLAN firsts.
