Closure rumours rubbished!

Stolen defibrillator is returned after story was highlighted in Champ A LIFE-SAVING defibrillator worth more than £850 which was believed to have been stolen from a Public Access Box in Tarleton Village has been returned with the help of the Champion.

A Douglas Cardiac Trust trustee was placing a replacement defibrillator in the box on the wall at Holistic Health, at 100 Church Road, when he noticed the original unit was back – with no explanation.

Bernard Sparkes, secretary of Douglas Cardiac Trust said: “The Trustees of the Douglas Cardiac Trust would like to register their thanks to the Champion and their readers for publishing the details of the missing – believed stolen – defibrillator from Tarleton.

“As a result of this publicity the defibrillator was returned to the box from which it was removed.

One of our trustees was putting a replacement defibrillator in the box when he noticed the original unit had been returned – with no explanation.

“The trustees would also like to thank those people involved in the huge fund raising effort – mounted to buy a replacement defibrillator, which cost more than £850 each.

“The Just Giving site had raised more than £1,100 by Thursday evening August 19 and a local couple gave a very generous anonymous donation.

“A very generous donation from Southport Lions International has made a huge difference.

“Now that the original defibrillator has been returned the trustees would like to make clear that all the

Report by Henry James money raised will be invested in replacing outdated defibrillators as well as providing batteries and pads to local schools, churches, local sports facilities and the public access defibrillators.

“Part of the money raised will be shared with the First Responders in the local area of Tarleton, Hesketh Bank and Banks.”

KICKSTART FOR YOUNG JOBLESS IN WEST LANCS Workplace scheme reaches ‘significant milestone’ as 100 people now placed into employment in borough

THE borough council’s ‘Kickstart’ scheme has reached a “significant milestone” and now has 100 young people placed into employment with local businesses and at the Council.

Kickstart is a government funded employment programme in which young people aged 16 to 24 year on Universal Credit, can access a six-month work placement through a partnership created through the Council and 64 local employers across West Lancashire.

This is 40 more placements than the team had originally planned and the team are currently working on filling even more vacancies for the remaining four months of the scheme.

The first two young people

Report by Henry James to enrol through Kickstart in February have both been offered permanent positions now their placements have been completed, and the Council are hopeful several other young people on the scheme will also be offered longer term roles after their placements have finished.

All young people on the scheme are offered a “comprehensive” package of training and support with roles being filled across a range of sectors including IT, digital marketing, hospitality, environmental services and property management.

Paul Garton, commercial director at Motion Graphix in Skelmersdale said: “Thanks

Councillor Yvonne Gagen ‘delighted’ by Kickstart scheme’s success

to the Kickstart programme we’ve managed to fill four key roles with talented people that may never have had a chance. The team at West

Lancs Council have been incredible in their continued support not only for us, but for our new team members.”

Chris Lloyd, business director at Base-dance in Burscough is also really pleased with the scheme and added: “I can’t believe the talent that is out there, our Kickstarter Rose has been a breath of fresh air and we just know she will keep bringing innovation and new ideas to the business.”

Councillor Yvonne Gagen, cabinet member for leisure and human resources, said: “We are delighted by the success of the Kickstart scheme which is designed to support young people who have struggled to gain employment due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“If the bid is successful, the grant will be used to finally complete their flood report into existing conditions around the village, to assess options for improving flood risk management and to deliver relevant projects.

“Regardless of the outcome of this bid, I will continue to hold Lancashire County Council to account for resolving the flooding issues in Parbold and across West Lancashire in their role as the Lead Local Flood Authority.”

Flooding is a serious issue for many parts of West Lancashire and in 2015, more than 100 homes and three businesses in Parbold were devastated by the floods which severely affected areas across the borough.

One business left the village as a result of the damage caused, while some residents were unable to return to their homes until 11 months later in November 2016.

Parbold Flood Action Group was formed soon after this by concerned residents who wanted to avoid a repeat of the 2015 floods.

Residents urged to use the NHS 111 service during upcoming Bank Holiday weekend RESIDENTS in West Lancashire are reminded to utilise the NHS 111 service if they need urgent care during the upcoming Bank Holiday weekend.

111 online (111.nhs.uk) can help patients who feel unwell but do not have a life-threatening emergency.

The service will help direct individuals to the appropriate place for treatment which could be a pharmacy, walk-in centre or accident and emergency department. People without access to the internet can dial 111.

GP practices and some pharmacies will be closed but other services will remain open, with some operating on different hours to usual.

Dr Peter Gregory, local GP and chair at NHS West Lancashire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), said: “Utilising the 111 online service is vital as the NHS manages huge demand across the system. They can direct you to the appropriate service and can help ease pressure on emergency services, as well as helping patients avoid potentially lengthy waiting times by giving you a timed appointment should you need one.

“The Prescription Ordering Direct service is closed on Bank Holidays and so I would again urge residents to order their repeat prescriptions well in advance. Some pharmacies are open to help you treat common ailments.”

Children and young people in the county received ‘timely support’ during the pandemic, say OFSTED

by Henry James

OFSTED inspectors have “endorsed” the way that Lancashire County Council continued to support children and young people during the Covid-19 pandemic.

During a recent focused visit of children’s services, and in particular the help and protection it provides for vulnerable children, inspectors highlighted that children who need help and protection, receive timely support at the appropriate level of need.

They also praised senior leaders for their “coherent strategic” approach to changing and improving services that has resulted in progress being made.

County Councillor Cosima Towneley

The virtual inspection was carried out as part of Ofsted’s review into how the social care system nationally has provided services and care for children and young people since the outbreak of Covid19.

The inspection in Lancashire looked at

arrangements where families come into contact with children’s services, including assessments and plans for child protection and children in need, referrals to early help services, for support and links with other agencies.

Inspectors looked at how the threshold for services and accommodation of children is applied, as well as decisionmaking and contact with families and children.

In a letter published by Ofsted, the inspection team also points out that Lancashire has experienced high levels of Covid-19 throughout the pandemic and, at the time of this visit, continued to have one of the highest infection rates in the country.

Inspectors also found that since the pandemic, partners worked effectively to maintain services and minimise

the impact on vulnerable children and their families.

Inspectors highlighted that this is a noteworthy achievement, particularly given the size of the county and its workforce, and the significant and continued impact of Covid-19.

County Councillor Cosima Towneley, cabinet member for children and families, said: "The way that staff and managers have responded to the Covid-19 pandemic in Lancashire has been exceptional.

“I am proud that Ofsted has recognised the way the service has continued to work proactively and incredibly hard to keep children and young people safe, despite the huge challenges the pandemic has placed upon us.

“The letter is a mainly positive assessment of children's

services in Lancashire, further demonstrating that we are continuing to make strong progress as we strive to achieve excellence.

“We will never become complacent.

Any thorough inspection like this will also highlight areas where we could do better. We will continue, at pace, to address these. In all we do, we will continue to work hard to make a positive difference to the lives of our most vulnerable children, young people and their families.”

The Ofsted visit took place on July 6 and 7, 2021 and was in line with the inspection of local authority children’s services (ILACS) framework.

This visit was carried out by remote means, using video calls for discussions with local authority social workers, managers and leaders.

Hospital ‘closure’ rumours rubbished by health chiefs People behind claims are just stoking fears, fumes MP

RESIDENTS are being invited to enter the Skem Scarecrow Festival.

The festival was launched on August 1 and people can enter by adding a picture of their scarecrow to the Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Skem-ScarecrowFestival-100301268938766/ The rules say the scarecrows: must be made of recycled materials; must be displayed on your own property; they will remain the property and responsibility of their owners/builders; and must not obstruct the view of oncoming traffic from either pedestrians or road users.

The judges decision is final and no scary scarecrows are allowed.

A spokesperson for the event said: “This is just for fun and I hope that the residents join in and enjoy it.

“All entries for the festival must be added to the site on or before midnight on September 4.”

Off-road biker fled after passenger was thrown from vehicle SKELMERSDALE Police attended a road traffic collision after an off-road bike lost control and a female was thrown off the rear of the vehicle.

The driver of the off-road bike then fled the scene and left the injured female on the side of the road.

She was taken to hospital with a suspected fractured pelvis.

The incident took place on Monday, August 16.

A spokesperson for Skelmersdale Police said: “Thankfully the female was wearing a helmet otherwise this could have been much worse.

“This is just another example of how dangerous these bikes can be and why we do not tolerate them.

“We would like to thank all of the members of the public who assisted at the scene.”

Report by Tom Martin SOUTHPORT and Ormskirk Hospital bosses have dismissed rumours that the hospitals are facing closure or downsizing.

Leaflets and social media posts have been circulating in recent weeks about the news, leading many to speculate if it was true.

But Trish Armstrong-Child, the outgoing chief executive of Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust, said there are “no proposals or plans which would see either hospital closing in the future.”

This was echoed by Trust Chair Neil Masom, who claimed the rumours are “disrespectful to the more than 3,000 people who work here.”

Southport MP Damien Moore also condemned the “constant rumours

Ormskirk District General Hospital

of closure” and described it as “stoking fear in our community.”

He said: “If you were a doctor considering moving to our town to

take up employment, how would you react when you read stories telling residents it is about to close? I have had hospital staff contacting my office asking how long they have ‘It does a great disservice to before the hospital will our town - and our hospital - shut down - and how long they have to plan for a to peddle these lies’ move out of our town.

have had elderly residents who rely upon public transport to get to their medical appointments worried about how they will get to Liverpool or Preston ‘once the hospital closes’.

“It does a great disservice to our town - and our hospital - to peddle these lies, which are designed to stoke fear within our community.

“I am glad that the Chair and the Chief Executive of Southport & Ormskirk Hospitals have both confirmed that there is no truth to the allegations. As the hospital Chair Neil Masom has said, these claims are ‘disrespectful to the more than 3,000 people who work here’.

“I urge opposition parties and groups in Southport to reflect on their conduct, and attempt cleaner campaigning in the future. I will continue to stand up for the fantastic people who work at our hospital.”

Edge Hill study shows hanging around with your ‘least attractive friends’ is the best way to look good in photos!

A NEW study from Edge Hill and Soochow Universities appears to reveal that ‘hanging around with your least attractive friends is the most effective way to look good in photos’.

This new study by Dr Edwin Burns and Dr Haojiang Ying, recently published on Science Direct, shows that if you and your friends are already ‘very attractive’ then appearing in group photos will actually make you look worse than usual.

Of cours,e beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so the study is rather questionable to say the least and perhaps should be taken with a huge dollop of salt.

However, if you and your friends are average or below-average attractiveness then a group photo is the best way to go and will make you look better than ever. The message is that if you want to look good in photos and on social media you need to hang around with your worst looking friends.

This phenomenon, known as the ‘cheerleader effect’, has been widely researched over the last several years but this is the first time that group photos have been shown to have negative

Dr Edwin Burns

effects when very attractive people are put into the pictures.

Dr Burns said: “We demonstrate that while in the majority of cases we are more attractive in groups this effect works in reverse for people with highly attractive friends, as being around really attractive people has a detrimental impact upon our appearance, especially if we are attractive ourselves.

“The key to looking your absolute best in photos is choosing your friends wisely and only having photos with the least attractive members of your friendship group. This may sound harsh, but this is how our minds work whether we like it or not.

“My expert advice is when you’re out with friends this summer it might be a good idea to stand next to your least attractive friends in group photos, and next time you want to update your tinder profile, get your worst looking mates together for a few photos to make sure you look your absolute best."

The research was carried out by asking people to rate faces in a wide variety of group photos featuring different people and locations. The

results showed clearly that group photos are generally beneficial unless you and your friends are at the upper end of attractiveness.

“The results of the study were really clear”.

Edwin explained. “In all the group photos of people with unattractive friends our participants rated the faces more highly. But when we started using photos with only attractive friends the ratings dropped by around 10%.”

This effect can be proven to work with even simple images. If the outer, ‘attractive’ faces in the image below are covered the blemishes on the middle face will start to disappear after a few seconds.

Similar studies have been carried out worldwide, in eight different countries, with the same results seen all of them.

Haojiang Ying from Soochow University in China said: “It’s amazing that this result is so universal and shows how ingrained this effect is. It doesn’t seem to matter where in the world you are from or what your background is, group photos will always make you look better unless your friends are all very attractive people.”

Jamie’s regret over friend’s Covid death Report by Henry James THE friend of a Skelmersdale man who died from Covid wished he had persuaded him to have the vaccine.

Carl Pennington, 41, who hadn’t had a vaccine, spent 10 days in Southport Hospital after receiving a positive test, and died soon after being put on a ventilator.

His devastated friend Jamie Williamson, 31, commented: “Carl hadn’t had the vaccine and I wish I had told him to because he wasn’t very active. I think this virus is deadly if you are not very active.

“I would encourage people to get out in the sunshine when we have it, get the Vitamin D inside them and go on a walk. Many people could learn to eat better. I hope to get my first vaccine this week.”

Skem man wishes he could have persuaded his pal to have vaccine Jamie has now set up a fundraiser to help Carl’s family. Carl was a carer for his mum who died earlier this year from a heart attack.

Jamie added: “Carl spent most of his adult life caring for his mum.

“He was struggling to pay for the funeral as she didn’t have any life insurance. Carl didn’t have much either.

“His family, including his brothers Colin and Mark, now have more funeral costs to pay. I decided to set up the fundraising page to help them.”

Carl, who was a Liverpool fan, was considered to be unselfish by those people who

knew him. Jamie paid the following tribute to his friend: “I knew him basically all my life. He will be missed by everyone who knew him. He would do anything to help the people he knew.

“He used to cut my hair all the time and never asked for a penny when he could have charged. He has done this for years, so I feel like I owe him just for that alone.

“He will be missed by everyone who knew him. The world is a sadder place without him.

Lesley-Anne takes a spin for Walking With Giants Foundation A MEMBER of Anytime Fitness has raised more than £1,000 for a Maghull-based charity.

Lesley-Anne Bull did 10 consecutive 45 minute spin classes (a form of indoor cycling) at the gym on Saturday, August 14 for the charity Walking With Giants Foundation.

Sue Connerty, the mum of a young boy called Alex Connerty who has a very rare form of Dwarfism called Microcephalic Primordial Dwarfism, set up the charity to support families whose child was affected with this condition.

Lesley-Anne commented: “I organised this fundraiser to support a wonderful local charity that is based in Maghull.

“This condition has affected less than 500 individuals globally since the condition was first recognised.

Sadly not many of these individuals live a long life due to the underlying medical conditions they face.

“The Walking With Giants Foundation has supported more than 140 of these individuals from the UK and around the world.

“The WWGF do not receive government funding or much grants from other sources so they rely on the public to help them raise the

Evening Courses in Arabic, French, German, Italian and Spanish Lesley-Anne (right) with Alex and Sue

money they need to achieve their aims and objectives.

“So come on people let’s show the WWGF that the work they do matters!”

A SITE manager from Ormskirk is celebrating after being named among the top 5% nationwide.

Dave Read received the NHBC Pride in the Job ‘Quality ’ Awards for his role in overseeing construction at The Hollies in Forton.

He is among just 450 out of more than 10,000 site managers to be recognised in the prestigious awards.

Dave, a first time winner who works for Kingswood Homes, said: “It’s a massive achievement for the team at The Hollies. I was elated when I found out.

“For Pride in the Job the management of the site is judged from the foundations right the way through to the finished product and includes a well-managed and organised site. You have to deliver the best possible workmanship to win. It shows that we care about what we do and we’re building the best homes that we can.”

Dave, who started his career as a joiner, has worked for Kingswood for more than a decade and has seen the company move from being a building company working on domestic and commercial projects to developing sites of its own.

“Site management is a very rewarding career, but you have to work hard. We’re lucky that the trades working on site are really good as without them I wouldn’t have been able to win the award – it’s a team effort,” explained Dave, 41 from Rufford.

On a typical day, Dave oversees 20 to 40 people working on site at The Hollies.

Residents urged to host coffee morning WEST Lancashire residents have been urged to host a Macmillan Coffee Morning this September.

This year the official date is September 24 but events can be held at any time.

The first ever Coffee Morning happened way back in 1990 when it was a rather small affair with a simple idea: guests would gather over coffee and donate the cost of their cuppa to Macmillan in the process.

It was so effective, they repeated it the next year – only this time nationally. Since then, Coffee Morning has raised more than £290 million for Macmillan.

West Lancashire MP Rosie Cooper said: “The Macmillan Coffee Mornings have become an integral fundraising effort but also a firm favourite as family, friends, neighbours and work colleagues take a time out to catch up over a cuppa and enjoy a biscuit or cake.

“Anyone in West Lancashire can sign up to host a coffee morning with Macmillan sending out fundraising kits with various bits of merchandise, visit coffee.macmillan.org.uk”

Professor Phil Scraton pays tribute to H’boro campaigner after death Report by Tom Martin FORMER Edge Hill staff member Professor Phil Scraton has paid tribute to a fellow Hillsborough campaigner who has passed away.

Rose Robinson, from Blundellsands, died on August 8 at the age of 79 after a short battle with cancer.

Her 17-year-old son, Steven Robinson, was one of the 97 Hillsborough victims who died in the 1989 disaster.

Rose - described as ‘inspirational’ - became the original press officer for the Hillsborough Family Support Group and later the northern media spokesperson for the HFSG. She played an important role in campaigning against the appointment of Norman Bettison as Chief Constable of Merseyside in 1998.

She fought tirelessly for justice for Stephen and the other victims and even appeared on David Frost’s television show to be interviewed alongside fellow campaigner Anne Williams.

Her family say she will be terribly missed as she leaves behind husband Bernie, daughters Tracey and Claire and sons Paul and Peter and her seven grandchildren.

‘Digitally excluded’ residents to get help OFFICERS at West Lancashire Borough Council have said they are “dedicated” to helping their digitally excluded residents get online.

They have teamed up with ‘We Are Digital’ to offer residents free 1-2-1 training sessions which can be done remotely at home and are designed to cover all the basics of being online including how to use the internet safely.

Council Leader, Councillor Ian Moran said: “Covid has shown how really important it is for people to stay connected with their loved ones and be able to access services online.

“We want to help and support all our residents to be online and these courses are designed to go at the right pace whether you have a little bit of experience or are taking your first steps with digital technology.”

Residents who are interested in the free courses can text WEST LANCS and their name to 07825 844 417 or can call 01695 585216 (standard text and call charges apply).

Phil Scraton

Police commissioner to tackle retail crime

Rose Robinson with Sir Kenny Dalglish and (inset) her son Steven

Professor Phil Scraton penned a book called ‘Hillsborough: The Truth’ and worked at Edge Hill University.

He said of Rose: “You were inspirational and determined in your pursuit of justice for Steven, for all who were killed at Hillsborough and for those who survived, their lives changed for ever.

“You knew the truth and for three decades, along with bereaved families and survivors, you campaigned tirelessly to achieve justice for your loved ones.

“Rose, your strength of spirit, your commitment to ensuring the truth was known, never wavered. That commitment, shared by your family, the bereaved and survivors, reminds us that we never walk alone.”

LANCASHIRE’S Police and Crime Commissioner, Andrew Snowden, has brought together representatives of the retail industry in Lancashire to hear about their issues relating to retail crime.

The roundtable meeting with key stakeholders was part of his drive to meet as many communities, businesses and front line police officers to listen to and better understand the issues faced.

At the meeting the discussions focussed on retail crime and abuse on shop workers – with the Commissioner seeking a common understanding and way forward in how retail related crime is dealt with in Lancashire.

Mr Snowden said: “I want Lancashire’s business owners to know that I am on their side and their voice is being heard. I

am committed to leading the fight on crime and antisocial behaviour that affects our businesses and retailers.

“The discussion will feed into and shape my police and crime plan and I look forward to working with businesses across Lancashire to see how we can best deal with business crime and shopworker abuse.

“I recognise that what may be considered petty theft to some has a real impact on people's livelihoods and the confidence they have to report crimes. We also need to remember that shoplifting and theft is often a by product of deeper problems.

“As Police and Crime Commissioner I want to tackle the underlying problems of addiction and abuse, not just the symptoms which is sadly too often crime committed in our communities.”

Second round of mobile Covid-19 vaccinations to be held in borough Report by Henry James

RESIDENTS in West Lancashire are urged to protect themselves against Covid-19 as a second round of mobile vaccinations comes to the region next week.

Following the success of the pop-up clinics in June and July, mobile vaccinations are returning on Friday, August 27 with regular clinics in a number of locations until Saturday, September 4.

The local NHS is working with GP practices, West Lancashire Borough Council and Lancashire County Council to provide the service in areas where vaccine uptake is lowest in a bid to ensure as many people as possible are protected against Covid-19.

The vaccination teams also return to a selection of sites from the first run of clinics to allow residents to receive their all-important second dose.

16 and 17-year-olds will be able to receive their first dose of Pfizer at these clinics.

Councillor Vickie Cummins, cabinet member for health and wellbeing at West Lancashire Borough Council, said: “It is vital as many people as possible come forward for their Covid-19 vaccination, and it has never been easier for the residents of West Lancashire to receive their first or second jab by visiting a mobile walk-in clinic.

“We’re particularly keen to see the under 30s come forward. Getting vaccinated is the best way to protect yourself, your loved ones and the community from the virus and its immediate and long-term effects.

“This has been another collaborative effort from our NHS, the Clinical Commissioning Group, GPs, local authority staff and volunteers. My sincere thanks go to all involved for their hard work in continuing to help protect West Lancashire.”

Abdul Razaq, acting director of Public Health for Lancashire County Council, said: “Cases of Covid-19 remain high across the county, with increases being seen in a number of districts.

“As we begin to learn to live with Covid-19, it is vital we use every tool at our disposal to continue to give

Parents urged to look out for early signs of Respiratory Syncytial Virus signs in children HEALTH experts are urging parents and carers in West Lancashire to be aware of the signs of respiratory illnesses in toddlers and babies, with cases higher than usual for this time of year and further increases expected over the winter months.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes coughs and colds in winter and is the most common cause of bronchiolitis in children under two.

In the UK, the RSV season typically begins in the autumn – earlier than the adult flu season – and runs throughout the winter. However, this year we are now seeing this presenting in children much sooner.

Dr Anne Kerr, Emergency Department (ED) consultant, Alder Hey Children’s NHS Foundation Trust, said that whilst respiratory infections are common in children in autumn/winter, we are now seeing more children and babies with respiratory infections earlier on in the year, due to restrictions lifting.

She said: “We’re now seeing more children and babies with respiratory infections coming through our doors at the emergency department, as restrictions have lifted and people are mixing again.

Many new parents may not have experienced respiratory illness in their child until now which understandably, can

cause them to worry.

“Most cases, however, will not be serious and often the child can be cared for at home with simple measures such as paracetamol, rest and plenty of fluids.”

Common symptoms of bronchiolitis are runny nose, a rasping, dry cough, mild increase in temperature. You may also notice them feeding less and making more effort in their breathing.

Children under two months of age, those born prematurely and those with underlying health conditions, such as a heart condition, are a higher risk of severe bronchiolitis and parents should consider accessing health advice earlier.

Locals can get a jab from the mobile sites

us the upper hand over the virus, and that means getting fully vaccinated with two doses.

“If you are eligible and have not yet had two doses of the vaccine, please come forward and take advantage of the extra clinics being held in West Lancashire to protect yourselves and those you care about.”

The schedule for the van is as follows: - Friday, August 27 - All Saints Church Hall, Station Road, Hesketh Bank, PR4 6SQ – Midday-5pm - Tuesday, August 31 - Concourse Shopping Centre, Skelmersdale, WN8 6LN – 10am-5pm - Wednesday, September 1 - Tanhouse Community Centre, Skelmersdale, WN8 6AN – 10am5pm - Wednesday 1 and Thursday, September 2 West Lancs College, College Way, Skelmersdale, WN8 6DX (Staff & students only) – 8:30am-4pm - Thursday, September 2 - Evermoor Hub, Skelmersdale, WN8 9HR – 10am-5pm - Friday, September 3 - Greenhill Community Hub, Skelmersdale, WN8 8DL – 10am-5pm - Saturday, September 4 - Concourse Shopping Centre, Skelmersdale, WN8 6LN - 10am-5pm First and second doses are available at all sites. If attending for a second dose, please ensure it is at least eight weeks since your first and if you have an appointment booked for your second, please ensure you cancel to avoid potential vaccine wastage at other sites. More sites will be confirmed in due course.

Lancashire among record 20 places bidding for UK City of Culture 2025 title A RECORD 20 places from across the UK, including Lancashire, have submitted an expression of interest to become the UK City of Culture 2025 - an all time high of entries for this prestigious competition.

The competition, delivered by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) in collaboration with the devolved administrations, uses culture as a catalyst for levelling up areas outside London and putting new parts of the UK on the cultural map internationally.

Entrants have been tasked with proving that they can put culture at the heart of their plans to recover from the impact of the pandemic.

The 20 places also include Derby, Medway, Southampton

and Bradford. Lancashire wants to become the first county to win the UK City of Culture title.

Lancashire continued with their entry despite the county council pulling its support after the authority saw the £22million to back the idea as too risky.

The winner, which will be announced next year, will take on the baton from Coventry as the 2021 UK City of Culture and be at the centre of the UK’s cultural spotlight in 2025.

The benefits to the winner of the title could be huge, attracting millions of visitors and investment and bringing communities together to showcase the place where they live to the country and the world.

Throughout the history of

this competition the winning cities have always benefited from financial support to ensure the programme’s success and lasting legacy.

Coventry has received more than £15.5 million from the Government to directly support its year as UK City of Culture.

Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said: “This record number of applications from all four corners of the country is testament to the huge success of City of Culture in generating investment, creating jobs and boosting local pride.”

The 20 bidders will be reduced to an initial long list of bidders in the coming weeks and then cut down further to a final shortlist in early 2022. The winner will be announced in May 2022.

The white deer in Tarleton

Rare white deer spotted by passer-by in Tarleton Report by Henry James CHAMPION reader Alan Gillard has shared some pictures of a white deer crossing the road in Tarleton.

The Skelmersdale resident was driving when he spotted the rare animal.

He said: “Me and my partner were out for a drive in Tarleton when a white deer walked across the

road. I slowed down and my partner took some pictures.”

According to The British Deer Society, in most cases, the white deer are usually fallow, a species that is widely distributed across much of the UK and for which white is a recognised colour variety.

White fallow are not seen as often as the other three main colour types (common, menil and black), but where they are present they tend to stand out more obviously against other members of a herd or when in cover.

LETTERS to the Editor

As the Government commit themselves to a highly damaging piece of NHS legislation, the Health & Care Bill 2021, concocted by the now shamed former Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, I write to express my deep concerns and total opposition to its presentation to Parliament.

Even before Covid19 struck, the public were becoming more aware of restrictions to care, closures of hospitals due to the implementation of US Style Integrated Care Systems (ICS) based on the flawed ‘Accountable Care Organisation’ model.

This US profit model, codesigned with the likes of consultants McKinsey, and involving US insurance companies such as United Health, Centene and Palantir, needs the NHS in England to be broken up into 42 ‘localised’ ICS. The Bill seeks to cement this American model within our NHS and politicians must examine the evidence and afford the pub-

lic a full, open and honest debate.

Putting ICS in place relies heavily on pushing more services into the community and the promotion of the NHS as a charity plus shrinking the menu of NHS treatments available, in order to make profits for the private companies who can and will be sitting on the boards of a local ICS. Those needing treatment will experience a true healthcare postcode lottery, and a two-tier system where care will depend on ability to pay.

If passed the Bill will make a mockery of the public’s love for the NHS, as shown by public clapping during the pandemic.

If passed, the Bill signals the end of our National Health Service as a public service of universal healthcare for everyone regardless of ability to pay.

That cannot be allowed to happen.

Mary Whitby Aughton

Cars need to be made in a cleaner and more ethical way Further to Mr Swann’s letter in your August 11 issue, about the need for all goods to be 100% recyclable and particularly with regard to fields of scrap electric cars in France.

I understand batteries for most of these cars contain cobalt and lithium, and it is these that appear to be difficult to recycle.

Another point is that the Democratic Republic of Congo provides 60% of the world’s supply of cobalt, where large numbers of unregulated mines use children as young as seven as miners, (The Guardian – 3/1/21) so ethics are questionable.

No doubt the motor industry will develop cleaner and more ethical vehicles in future.

I’m of an age when I won’t be driving much longer. Maybe my current three year old car will become a vintage one, if a future Government doesn’t ban all those in the future!

Oh, and remember when our Government encouraged one and all to get diesel vehicles and change our heating boilers?

Times certainly change.

Railway wild flowers should be welcomed by nearby residents I can’t tell you how disappointed and irritated I am about the story in last week’s Champion about residents being annoyed that vegetation was growing next to their homes (see picture, right).

Do the residents that are complaining have any grasp at all on the state of nature reports that are finally getting some attention on the TV? I guess they’re either completely ignorant of the fact or just genuinely don’t care. I would suggest, if they have children or grandchildren that they care about, they start taking some notice and giving nature some breathing space.

Some people, it seems, just won’t be happy unless they can put nature in a box and keep it neat and tidy.

But let me put their minds at ease, there are plenty of people out there that would jump at the chance to see wildflowers (you may call them

Dog mess is outnumbered by litter louts Over the years the council has spent time, money and effort regarding dog mess.

I do not remember any articles referring to litter, broken bottles, chewing gum, cigarette ends, food wrappers and more.

Life can and will adapt and survive climate change, often by changing ranges moving and migrating to more suitable ranges. The slow and more gradual climate change seen in the past has allowed this to happen.

In the space of decades, globally there is very likely to be very major climatic changes. Many ecosystems are unable to adapt at this pace, and so will suffer and collapse and, indeed, some are doing already.

Coral reefs are one sad example.

Currently species are going extinct at a pace that is 1,000 times greater than

expected, we are living through a period of mass extinction of life on earth, making ecosystems vulnerable and less resilient to the effects of climate change.

The complexity of global climate makes the patterns of change difficult to predict, which is difficult for people to understand, as they prefer simple black and white explanations that science rarely affords.

Currently many billions of people live in areas that are in great danger of being underwater with global sea level change.

Those people will move to survive elsewhere, causing huge problems for economically and socially if we 'just let nature take its course'.

The idea behind ‘throwing money’ at the problem is not to control global temperat-

ure fluctuations, as those long term planetary swings will continue on. But in order to preserve a comfortable life for billions of humans living on the planet, immediate changes need to be made.

A mind shift is required to understand that human life is dependent on the health and life of the entire planet.

So, by investing in research, protecting oceans and rainforests, living more sustainably, having fairer, greener societies, creating green jobs and cities, and clean air and water, we can move towards providing a healthy future for other generations, as well as leaving space for the myriad of other species that call this unique planet home.

Botanic Gardens lake to benefit from £30k improvement works Report by Tom Martin

PLANS to carry out £30,000 worth of improvement works to the lake at Southport’s popular Botanic Gardens, have been revealed by Sefton Council.

The authority met on Thursday, August 19 to discuss the proposals in detail, which includes new water aeration fountains, the installation of new fencing and secure lifeline stations, as well as plans for annual community clean-up events.

The park is a popular destination for many people in West Lancs and as part of a wider vision for transforming the site, the initial improvements were outlined to members of the Botanic Gardens Community Association and Make a Change for Ben fundraising group, who have been in discussion with the council’s Green Sefton team on the proposals.

The Champion has published several articles about how the Make a Change for Ben group is campaigning to have the lake properly cleaned after Ben Smith-Crallan, 37, from Churchtown, died after catching a rare infection following a fall into the water.

Ambitious plans The council say they have “ambitious plans to transform the park” and eventually they hope to spend around £5million if they can secure funding.

Cllr Ian Moncur, Cabinet Member for Health and Wellbeing said: “Our Green Sefton team has been working alongside a number of dedicated community groups who care deeply about the future of the park and are keen to see improvements that benefit everyone who loves spending time there.

“We’re at the stage where we have been able to agree some initial improvements focused on the lakeside

area that will complement the work already undertaken, at the beginning of the year, to improve the aviary.

“But our longer-term vision is to reinvigorate the park with a whole host of potential ideas that would offer better facilities for our communities as well as providing a positive boost to the local visitor economy, including the creation of new jobs.”

The Green Sefton Service will launch a consultation to seek ideas from the community for the longer-term vision for the Botanic Gardens.

Details of those consultations can be found at the website: https://yourseftonyoursay.sefton.gov.uk/ In time, it is expected funding will be sought from streams through organisations that support the heritage sector.

The project would support the restoration of many of the park’s Victorian buildings and help the Council to develop new attractions that would bring more visitors from Sefton, West Lancashire and the wider region to the park and generate income that would be earmarked for the park’s maintenance and management.

POLICE are appealing for information after a collision between a car and a lorry in Rufford left a man in a critical condition in hospital.

The crash happened at 4.35am on Wednesday, August 18 at the junction of Liverpool Road and Croston Road when a Ford Ka was in a collision with a Volvo HGV. The driver of the Ka, a 48-year-old man from Manchester, suffered serious injuries and was taken to Aintree Hospital in a critical condition.

The driver of the HGV was uninjured.

The road was closed for around six hours while the incident was dealt with by emergency services.

Sgt Martin Wilcock, of Lancashire Constabulary’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “This collision has left a man with some extremely serious injuries and my thoughts are with his loved ones at this time.

“I would appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision itself or who has any information to get in touch.”

Anyone with information should contact police on 101 quoting log 0177 of August 18th.

For one of the weeks it was decided to hold an inhouse tournament and it proved to be an enormous success.

Mim Eaton, a coach of the Men-Aces, said: “After a long break, Skem Men-Aces Disability FC came back to training. A few players were apprehensive, but one thing that was in abundance was the smiles, the genuine jubilation of seeing their friends again.

“As a club, we decided just to get the lads back together again to get their fitness levels up.

“We decided to hold our own little in-house tournament and it proved an enormous success. It was pure tonic to see the lads really enjoying themselves.

North Wall is a new Estate Agency, launched in the middle of the pandemic and now taking root in Maghull One of the questions I always get asked is ‘Why did you start your own Estate Agency?’ It’s a pretty big question, especially in the middle of a pandemic, says Kate Gostelow, Sales Director at North Wall.

values, and for those values to be at the heart of everything we do. We wanted to offer something that was different to the rest of the market, a level of service that we felt had been lost.

The short answer is easy - I love it! I’ve been doing it for 15 years now and have never thought of doing anything else.

The chance to build our own agency as a family business and do things the way we believe they should be done was too good to pass up.

After maternity leave and then lockdown I found myself at home looking at what was going on and thinking about setting up my own agency, how I would want to run in it, and just as importantly how I wouldn’t. I’ve seen agencies react to changes in the market in the past, reducing fees and giving flattering valuations to win business. It becomes a race to the bottom, and it’s only natural that low fees lead to reduced service - it’s the client that misses out in the long run.

Right from the get-go we wanted to build something from the ground up based on

I wanted to work in an area I knew really well, and I’ve been valuing in and around

Maghull and Sefton for years and years now so that was the natural choice.

Our service is hands on, it’s personal, it’s traditional. But it’s also modern, the amount of tech we use behind the scenes and in our marketing is amazing, we’re pushing things on that side and I’m really proud that we can do that whilst still offering a really dedicated service.

We’re trying to provide a level of service that we think is missing from the market.

We won’t be for everyone, we get that and we’re comfortable with it.

But for those clients that place value over price when it comes to something as huge as selling your home, we feel we’re building something really special for them.

PHOTOGRAPHY OF MAGHULL, LIVERPOOL & SANDRINGHAM MANOR

Selling your house can be difficult.

Stressful, even.

We want to make it easier for you. Here’s how.

North Wall is an Estate Agency built on principles and values. We keep things simple, and human.

Empty promises and confusing jargon? Not on our watch. We know that selling your home is a big deal, so we’ll speak to you in plain English.

Local knowledge, years of experience and up-to-date marketing methods as standard, not as a selling point.

A friendly and personal end-to-end service – you’ll be dealing with the same people from start to finish.

How refreshing.

It means we get to know you, and you get to know us.

We build a relationship based on trust, so that you know we have your best interests at heart when we’re finding the right buyer to pay the right price for your home.

Mural unveiled for inspirational H’Boro campaigner

are back!

Report by Tom Martin A MURAL has been created in memory of inspirational Hillsborough campaigner Anne Williams.

The stunning piece of artwork can be found on Anfield Road, near Liverpool’s stadium, and will be passed by thousands of fans on their way to the match.

It was painted by artist Paul Curtis and shows Anne with her fist clenched in celebration of the legal milestone in 2012.

Nine years ago she played a pivotal role in fighting for fresh inquests into the victims' deaths.

Her son Kevin was one of 97 Liverpool fans who died as a result of the crush during an FA Cup match in 1989.

Anne, who lived in Formby, passed away in 2013 aged 60 after pursuing justice for her son and the other victims of the disaster for more than 20 years.

Paul Curtis said: “A symbol of the city, a hero and an amazing woman. It's been an absolute honour to work on this mural.

“She was a mother of three from Formby who worked part-time in a newsagents, and levelled several legal attacks at the first Hillsborough inquest, questioning the credibility of its findings.

“Her fight was long but she was unwavering and should always be seen as a shining light of perseverance and standing up for justice against the odds.”

At an inquest in 1991, jurors heard Kevin and 94 others were dead by 3:15pm, a verdict which Mrs

Williams never believed and, as a result, she refused to accept his death certificate from the coroner.

She tracked down witnesses, one of whom suggested Kevin uttered the word ‘mum’ at about 4pm.

Her calls for fresh inquests were initially rejected by attorney generals and the European Court of Human Rights.

But following the publication of The Hillsborough Independent Panel's report in 2013, a further appeal by the families of the victims to quash the verdicts was upheld.

A jury at the new inquests in 2016 found the fans had been unlawfully killed after hearing two years of evidence.

Financial Planning

Golden Years If you find yourself wondering what to do with your life after retirement, then you’re not alone. Lets face it, our working lives have shaped our daily lives for many years, and now all of a sudden, you could be thinking well what’s next ut fear not, because the world has not passed you by .

A happy retirement is possible for anyone, even workaholics. Whether you’re retiring early or have worked way longer than you imagined, retirement can be whatever you want it to be.

E

When it comes to planning for your retirement, you need to think about what you’d like your life to be like. Do you wish to relocate Go on holidays un a car Enjoy weekends away and evenings out These things all cost money and working out how you will spend your time once retired will help you plan how much income you are likely to need.

To prepare yourself for these changes it’s a good idea to make a budget by breaking down your potential future spending into two categories Essential expenditure: money you need to cover your basic living needs, such as heating, utility bills, groceries and day to day travel.

Non-essential or ‘discretionary’ income: this is money for the things you like to do day to day and beyond, including eating out, holidays and leisure etc.

For some, that’s winding down and relaxing, for others it’s being busier and doing more than you’ve ever done.

Make it an enjoyable adventure spent doing the things you love with the people you love, exploring the places you always dreamed of.

Think about it, you now have time to re discover old hobbies or uncover new ones So do not fear about the next chapter of your life, as this one can be the most exciting

You’ll need to look at different sources to estimate how much income you’ll have. These include the State ension, personal or workplace pension schemes, state benefits you may ualify for on retirement and any savings or investments you have.

hysical activity and exercise are key to helping you stay healthy, energetic and independent as you get older.

According to the N S, people who are active have a lower risk of heart disease, stroke, type diabetes, some cancers, depression and dementia.

You should aim for at least . hours of moderate exercise each week and ideally, you should try to do something every day. Examples of moderate intensity aerobic activities include fast walking, cycling, water aerobics, playing doubles tennis and pushing a lawnmower.

Daily chores such as shopping, cooking or housework do not count towards your . hours because the effort re uired is not enough to raise your heart rate, although they do help break up sedentary time.

What you do will depend on your own circumstances but it’s a good idea to do activities you enjoy. You’re more likely to be consistent that way and stick to them.

Staying Healthy and Happy You get some great benefits as you get older, such as retirement and the freedom to do the things you enjoy.

Sometimes, the biggest hurdle to staying healthy and happy at an older age is figuring out what that looks like for you. After all, you’ve spent most of your adult life working and tending to a family. Now it’s your time. Make the most of it by allowing yourself to focus on the following thoughts.

Manage Stress Whatever the stressor is in your life, you should find a way to handle it. If you can get rid of it completely, please do so.

If not, create a habit of turning to what relaxes you so you can take a break from thinking about your stress.

It might be a great book, playing music, or cooking a favourite meal. Do whatever works well for you.

Rest There is an added pressure as we age to prove we aren’t too tired. The thing is, we are tired, right along with every other age group.

And that’s okay. Our bodies need rest. Listen to yours and rest when you need it for better health and overall happiness.

Stay Physically Active Keep moving however you can. Everyone is different when it comes to staying active.

Don’t compare yourself to everyone else; just stay active in a way that suits your body and lifestyle.

Stay Balanced It may not seem like a big deal, but balance helps prevent future falls and increases flexibility in all movement. Fall prevention exercises and activities that involve balance are important to stay healthy and happy at an older age.

Socialise Socialising lifts our spirits and is great for stimulating conversation. It may look different than it used to but keep getting together with friends and family to enjoy laughter and make some memories.

Getting older is a privilege and a time you can enjoy. With these tips to stay healthy and happy at an older age, you can make this stage of life fulfilling and full of joy.

Tips to aging well

H

As you age, your life will change and you will gradually lose things that previously occupied your time and gave your life purpose. But this is not a time to stop moving forward. Later life can be a time of exciting new adventures if you let it.

H o at

If you’re not sure where to get started, try some of the following suggestions: Pick up a long-neglected hobby or try a new one. Taking a class or joining a club is a great way to pursue a hobby and expand your social network.

Learn something new, such as an instrument, a foreign language, a new game, or a new sport. Learning new activities not only adds meaning and joy to life, but can also help to maintain your brain health and prevent mental decline.

Get involved in your community. Try attending a local event or volunteering for a cause that’s important to you.

Travel somewhere new or go on a weekend trip to a place you’ve never visited.

Spend time in nature. Take scenic walks, go fishing or camping, enjoy a ski trip, or simply walk the dog in the park.

Enjoy the arts. Visit a museum, go to a concert or a play, join a book group, or take an art appreciation class.

Stay connected It’s important to find ways to reach out and connect to others, regardless of whether or not you live with a spouse or partner. Along with regular exercise, staying social can have the most impact on your health as you age.

Connect regularly with friends and family. Spend time with people you enjoy and who make you feel upbeat. It may

be a neighbour who you like to exercise with, a lunch date with an old friend, shopping with your children, or playing with your grandchildren.

Make an effort to make new friends.

Make it a point to befriend people who are younger than you. Younger friends can reenergise you and help you see life from a fresh perspective.

Spend time with at least one person every day. Whatever your living or work situation, you shouldn’t be alone day after day. Regular face-to-face contact helps you ward off depression and stay positive.

Volunteer Giving back to the community is a wonderful way to strengthen social bonds and meet others interested in similar activities, who share similar values. Even if your mobility becomes limited, you can get involved by volunteering on the phone.

Keep your mind sharp Challenge your brain. For some people, challenging your brain could involve playing new games or sports. Other people may enjoy puzzles or trying out new cooking recipes. Find something that you enjoy and challenge your brain by trying new variations or increasing how well you do an activity.

Visitor numbers to resort reaches five million so far this year as footfall increases Report by Tom Martin MORE than five million people have visited Southport already this year, according to new figures released last week.

A huge number of people from across the UK, including West Lancashire, have travelled to the resort in 2021 to enjoy the local amenities.

The total number of visitors for the year to date is 5,065,024, which is 5.1% highter than 2019, which is the last normal trading year before the Covid pandemic.

The impressive footfall figures have been compiled by Springboard Research Ltd. Southport BID Business Engagement Manager Luke Randles, has welcomed the figures.

He said: “After the difficulties that businesses have faced over the last 18 months, it’s fantastic to see how our town centre is emerging stronger than ever.

“These footfall figures reaffirm the recent feedback we have received from both Southport businesses and residents, and show just how important high-quality retail is to our high streets.

“This data, coupled with the recent streak of news regarding investment, shows that Southport has the infrastructure in place to continue with a positive trend.”

It’s fantastic news, says Cllr Marion Atkinson

The increased footfall comes after the new Beales department store opened earlier this month as well as the new Southport Market food, drink and events venue.

Staycation boom Southport has also been buoyed by the current UK staycation boom with attractions such as Southport Pleasureland now fully operational after lockdown, and popular events such as the British Musical Fireworks, Southport Food and Drink Festival and Southport Comedy Festival all returning.

Southport Business Improvement District (Southport BID) working with contractors IllumiDex UK Ltd created ‘a boulevard of light’ with 300,000 lights

along the mile-long Lord Street earlier this year to boost the town’s night-time economy.

And the £38.5million awarded to Southport by the Government through the Towns Fund is set to secure schemes including a new Lakeside Events Centre.

Sefton Council Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills Cllr Marion Atkinson said: “It’s fantastic news that there has been an increase in footfall in Southport this year and indicates a step in the right direction as we look for the local economy to bounce back post-pandemic.

“It also demonstrates the clear confidence being shown by private investors right here in Sefton.

“The new Southport Market has been open just short of a month now and the overall feedback has been extremely positive. Tens of thousands of residents and visitors have sampled the amazing food and drink on offer there, and I’m certain that their visits are translating into a much-needed boost for other business across the town centre.

“The wider benefits of the council’s investment in Southport is already becoming apparent, not only with the increased footfall but a number of longer-term vacant units around the market now becoming occupied.

“We look forward to implementing more exciting plans at Southport Market, plus we have the hugely exciting Events Centre to come as the next stage of the Southport Town Deal.”

WEST Lancashire residents can have a say on how a popular tourist spot in Sefton could be improved.

A consultation on Ainsdale-on-Sea will end on September 30 and already more than 300 people have taken part.

Further feedback is welcomed to ensure that as many people as possible can help shape future proposals for investment in the area.

During 2020, an extensive consultation with residents, business owners, visitors and young people took place as part of the now successful Southport Town Deal bid.

It was recognised by a large number of respondents that the beachfront area at ‘Ainsdale-on-Sea’ is in need of investment to improve its facilities for residents and visitors alike.

The consultation asks for views on the wider development of the coastal gateway including the Sands Lake and Hotel area, Toad Hall and Ainsdale Discovery Centre.

It is also an opportunity for residents and regular beach users to offer ideas for how Ainsdale-on-Sea could be improved for all, from better traffic management to projects that would ensure Ainsdale’s rare habitats and species are able to thrive.

Cllr Ian Moncur, Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for Health and Wellbeing, said: “We recognise the need to create high quality visitor infrastructure at a number of access points along the Sefton coast, to drive growth within the visitor economy and provide a high-quality visitor experience.

“This will also reduce visitor pressure on our coastal communities as well as areas of high conservation

value – protecting our special wildlife and landscape.

“Ainsdale-on-Sea has been recognised as one of these key access points and we are keen to hear what our residents would like to see prioritised as we draw up our development plans for the area to complement the investment already underway.”

Many visitors to Ainsdale this summer will have already seen some of the initiatives being funded by the council to improve the experience for beach goers, showcasing the possibilities being explored that could form part of the longer-term rejuvenation of the area.

A posh fish and chip pop-up has proven incredibly popular and will continue to serve up food and drinks at the beach until the autumn.

Meanwhile, award-winning street artist Paul Curtis is part way through transforming the exterior of Toad Hall with a vibrant mural – the largest commission he’s ever undertaken.

Fab five for Skem Late goals deny Linnets in Cup encounter Report by Simon Driscoll Irlam 1 Skelmersdale United 5 IT was a stunning away win for United in the Emirates FA Cup Preliminary Round as they stormed to a 5-1 victory over Irlam.

Manager Paul McNally made two changes from Tuesday ’s win at Charnock Richard with Mikey Howard promoted from the bench in place of Danny Mitchley, who had a slight knock, while Elliot Morris replaced Freddie Potter, who returned to parent club City of Liverpool.

A traditionally rapid start from United on the road saw Tom Croughan hitting over the bar in the opening minute before Mikey Howard’s low cross drew a save from Irlam ‘keeper Lee White.

White was called into action again with an acrobatic stop from Howard’s angled effort with both Croughan and Baba Conteh heading past the post from crosses.

The pressure paid off on 17 minutes as a through pass from Kenny Strickland found the run of Howard who advanced on goal and tucked the ball past White for 1-0.

Callum Nicholas swept a curling free-kick over the bar before Max Bardsley-Rowe forced a strong stop from Ben Barnes with Mike Grogan blocking a rebounded effort from Jordan Icely.

Despite Irlam’s pressure on their goal it was Skem who struck next, Howard doubling the lead on 42 minutes with a penalty for 2-0 after Conteh had been upended by Karl Cassell.

The second half saw United’s threat continue, a clever interception and run from Howard seeing him curl an effort around the far post before Matty Hamilton and

Skem’s Kenny Strickland blocks an Irlam shot on Saturday. Photo by John Driscoll

Croughan forced low saves from White.

Irlam suffered a blow on 52 minutes as just over a minute after coming on, Connor Martin was sent off after a clash with Conteh and their woes increased further when Croughan swept a shot into the bottom corner for a 3-0 lead on 56 minutes.

The hosts defied their man disadvantage to threaten the score with Bardsley-Rowe’s powerful shot drawing a low stop from Barnes.

United resumed their pressure with an advantage played after Howard was felled, seeing Hamilton pick out the run of substitute Eliot Morris who forced a save from White.

United’s spot in the next round was secured with five minutes remaining, Howard and Morris combined to find substitute Richard Brodie, who rifled the ball past the diving White for a 4-0 lead.

The goals continued into the final minutes with a sweeping effort from Morris taking a deflection to send it past White for 5-0 before United’s hopes of a clean sheet were dashed by Nicholas’s lofted shot which flew past Barnes in the final seconds to give the hosts a consolation.

Burscough 1 Padiham 2 BURSCOUGH looked on course for three points at home on Saturday but were denied by a two goal salvo that arrived six minutes from full time at the Community Ground, writes Neil Leatherbarrow.

The game itself was a struggle between two teams determined not to concede any ground to each other and was in essence fairly forgettable, but it had a couple of magnificent goals that will long remain in the minds of those present.

Chances were rare in a scrappy first half, the highlights being a good opportunity for Burscough’s Conor Christiansen that missed the target and a header from Padiham’s Mark Woods that was saved by Linnets goalkeeper Joe Waugh.

If the first period had been a bit of a dud, the second half was ignited within seconds. Vinny Bailey received the ball from

Josh Quarless wide on the left and cut in towards goal, he then unleashed a thunderous rightfoot curler across Padiham goalkeeper Matt Hamnett into the far top corner. Only 17 seconds had elapsed and a number who were slow taking their positions to watch the game missed it.

Padiham responded with a shot from Woods that was comfortably saved by Waugh but Burscough went on the attack too and Quarless clipped the ball over the crossbar.

Ryan McKenna put a header over the Burscough crossbar in the 57th minute, but Burscough seemed to be holding out well and there was genuine expectation for a Linnets victory.

Gradually Padiham built up more of the possession as the game went into the last ten minutes, however in the 81st minute there was a warning, when the visitors substitute Issac Jones got in at the far post,

but his header was weak and Waugh gathered the ball well.

In the 84th minute a bit of inspiration from Jones changed the game. Luke Merrill played a short pass to Jones, who was 25 yards from goal in space, he took one touch and lifted a dipping shot over Linnets keeper Waugh and it was 1-1 with everything to play for again.

Two minutes later Jones hoisted a fairly innocuous looking cross from the left to the far post, Marcus Perry ran in between two Burscough defenders and just about steered a stooping header inside the post. It was now 2-1 to Padiham.

Burscough pushed to salvage something but Padiham were now in no mood to allow Burscough back, the best the Linnets could produce was a shot from 20 yards by Lewis Sinnott that was grasped by keeper Hamnett.

United get a tough draw in next round UNITEDhave not had any luck in the draw for the FA Cup First Qualifying Round, coming out of the pot away to Northern Premier League Premier Division Radcliffe Borough on September 4, writes Neil Leatherbarrow.

On paper a tough draw for Skem, however there might be a glimpse of hope for Paul McNally’s lads, Radcliffe were expected to be among the top sides in their division and they haven’t exactly set the world on fire with only three points from three league games, so Skem who

flourish in the FA Cup will have their opponents slightly worried too.

On Saturday, August 28 Skem are away to Vauxhall Motors for the second time this season and on Bank Holiday Monday they are at the JMO Sports Park for a 3pm kick off at home to Litherland Remyca.

Burscough have only one game this weekend. On Bank Holiday Monday, they have a difficult away game at Longridge Town, 3pm kick off.

TOP WORK, Toyota. You’ve won the world’s toughest motor race for the fourth year on the trot – and you get flag-waving bonus points because one of the drivers who made it happen was a Brit.

Yet I’m ashamed to say I didn’t catch a single moment of this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans, and nor do I know anyone else who did, either.

Surely, as someone who’s visited this historic circuit twice and loves nothing more than the howl of a highly tuned endurance racer at full chat, I’d be all over it, but nope. In fact, to see the action unfold at Arnage and the Mulsanne Straight you’d either have to pay to get access to Eurosport or do a lot of online faffing to see it on a livestream – and I’m sorry, but having spent most of the last 18 months stuck at home watching the telly, I went out to some car shows instead.

Normally a four-year run of victories, as anyone who’s seen Ford’s battle with Ferrari chronicled in the Oscar-winning Le Mans ’66 will knows, is a big deal. However, even petrolhead pals who I know are more than happy to bury their Sundays in F1 races are largely oblivious to Le Mans, and I reckon it’s the cars themselves that are the problem.

The FIA – motorsport’s global governing body – knows this, which is why for this year’s race it’s ditched the increasingly expensive topflight racers, called LMP1, and replaced it a new class, called Hypercars. They’re meant to be cheaper for the carmakers, based more closely on real-world tech and be more likely to use hybrid power – but you’re about as likely to see Toyota’s race-winning GR010 tootling up the Tarleton bypass as you are Boris Johnson winning Strictly. When the McLaren F1 won Le Mans, you at least knew it was based on something with a tax disc.

What I think would actually get Brits (besides the legion of really committed petrolheads who actually travel down to the circuit itself) truly into the world’s coolest motor race is getting it back to its roots and basing the entrants on cars that actually exist on real roads. In fact, send them down a French autoroute just before the race itself, numberplates intact – and if a sniffy Gendarme nicks the driver for it not being roadworthy, then it’s out of the race too.

That way, the cars will reflect the electric-only future we’re swiftly heading towards, and if a zero emissions racer can survive 3,000 miles of flat-out driving in the space of one day, it’ll hopefully translate into better tech for the rest of us, and a new generation of roadgoing Le Mans cars to get enthusiasts excited. Surely that’s the very definition of win on Sunday, sell on Monday?

An all-electric Ford GT40 that’s all-conquering on the track and exempt from city centre emissions charges?

I’d watch that. Would you?

CITROËN has slimmed down its range of sevenseaters after giving its people carrier an autumn refresh. The entry-level version of the C4 Grand SpaceTourer, the Live-specification model, has been dropped, with the French carmaker now focusing on the bigger-selling, and more upmarket versions. Prices now start at £28,630, with the first of the updated models arriving here in October.

PEUGEOT has knocked £1,000 off the price of its Expert vans. The discount applies across the entire range, including the all-electric e-Expert, with prices now starting at £22,995. There’s also a new automatic gearbox on the range-topping models, which is aimed at offering smoother changes. Go to www.peugeot. co.uk or pop into your nearest dealer to find more about the revised range.
