Millwrights James Walter Holloway was born in Brockenhurst in the New Forest in 1841.

His father George was a butcher who moved the family to Steyning when he joined Sussex Police. George rose to the rank of superintendent and was based in Steyning in 1857. James was apprenticed as a millwright at Rustington Mill. It was a windmill that was owned by Peter and Ann Humphrey and he married their daughter Harriet. James established Holloway J. W. & Sons, millwrights & engineers, boilermakers & smiths in 1863 with workshops based at both Lower Road and Charlton Street in Steyning.

Benjamin Barber was apprenticed at Holloway & Sons of Shoreham, as was his son Robert Gordon (Bob) Barber, who was born in Shoreham in 1888. A millwright was a highly skilled craftsman and the role needed the skills of a carpenter, blacksmith and stonemason and involved solving the many engineering problems that occurred in the working life of a mill. These involved making and fitting new sets of sweeps for a windmill, the cutting of large wooden teeth for the gear wheels and crafting new cogs out of hardwood, plus the forging of the iron and brass components. The Barbers repaired Sussex mills while working for Holloways, and the company was contracted to build Waterhall Mill, also known as Westdene Windmill at Patcham in 1885. This was the last mill to be built in Sussex. It is a four-storey, 19-foot brick tower mill with a domed cap.

It is winded by a five-bladed fantail with four spring patent sails carried on a cast iron wind shaft. The iron brake wheel was fitted with a Holloways screw brake. The mill drove three pairs of under drift millstones and the miller was Joseph Harris. In 1924 the windmill ceased its working life, but still exists, though it has been converted to residential use.

Benjamin also helped to repair the Shipley

the Selsey Mill.

Windmill in 1908 and his signature with that of the miller is said to be visible inside the mill. The Barbers also put the cap and sweeps on

Bob Barber moved to Kent and lived at 58 Dover Street, Canterbury. He joined Holman Brothers Ltd, engineers and millwrights in 1912. The natural energy of wind and waterpower was gradually being replaced by paraffin, petrol and diesel engines, all of which Holloways and Holmans installed in the industrial premises of Sussex and Kent.

Bob Barber became known as the finest millwright of the 20th Century for his quality of craftsmanship and engineering. During the First World War he worked at the Enfield Small Arms factory and after the war returned to Holmans. In 1929 the last windmill to be built in Kent was fitted out at St. Margarets Bay by Bob Barber. His son Raymond joined Holmans in 1938. Bob ‘retired’ in 1958 but his expertise was often called on until 1963.

Holloway J. W. & Sons expanded to be agents for all kinds of agricultural & other machinery at makers’ prices, motorcar & motorcycle makers and agents. The Holloway motorcycle won second place in the Preston Park speed trials of 1902. The company later became Holloway Brothers and then Holloway’s Engineers with many an apprentice from Steyning or Shoreham having started their working life with the company.

Judy Upton The source for this article came from a letter written by Mrs Lucy Witten, Bob Barber’s sister (and my great aunt) that was published in Sussex County Magazine January 1956.

‘Love to Move + Time to Chat’ Protecting brain function by getting older adults moving and grooving!

“One hour of Wonderfulness Each Week!”

‘Love to Move + Time to Chat’, a new and exciting age and dementia-friendly programme, launched this September for older members of the local communities. The weekly seated exercise to music is followed by refreshments and time to stand and socialise and runs each Tuesday at Southwick Community Centre. Set up by local home care company, Home Instead Brighton, Hove & Shoreham, it is supported by Sport England and British Gymnastics Foundation. Exercises are run by Cherry Tolcher from Shoreham and Anna Shaw from Brighton.

Cherry says: “It’s a great way for family and friends to join their loved ones in a fun, positive, and fulfilling session together. One participant describes it as ‘one hour of wonderfulness each week!’”

The British Gymnastics Foundation ‘Love to Move’ programme is specially designed to get older people moving and functioning better. It is founded on a programme delivered within care homes across Japan, the country with the oldest and healthiest population in the world. It has been adapted for British culture and the current generation of older people here. Gymnastic foundation skills, cognitive stimulation therapy and social interaction activities are carefully integrated for this group of adults. It is an interactive programme, incorporating humour and contact through partner activities and memory evoking music.

The Science Most of ‘Love to Move’ is based on bilaterally asymmetrical movement patterns - where the body’s left side movements do not mirror the right side. Science tells us that this benefits older people and those with dementia and mild cognitive impairment, by enabling the left side and right side of the brain to process information independently. This helps improve cognitive function and ‘reserve’ by firing up more neurons in the brain which allows us to process everyday tasks more easily.

According to the Alzheimer’s Society there is also increasing evidence that building up cognitive reserve over time can reduce the risk

of developing dementia. The British Gymnastics Foundation add that Love to Move is beneficial to everyone, “It is believed that doing these exercises can result in an increased number of connections between neurons; helping you to keep functioning when brain disease strikes.”

Other benefits Age UK produced an evaluation report of the ‘Love to Move’ pilot, finding that, in addition to cognitive benefits, it also has a demonstrable benefit in the physical and emotional aspects of older people. They found a noticeable change in the posture and movement of those participating in the programme. Some older people mentioned that such movements have become easier over time. Those participating in the programme, “also appeared to develop a bond between them, providing encouragement and support to each other.”

Another report on the programme’s ‘Social Return on Investment’ (Parker, 2020), found: “There are so many benefits; this is the kind of programme which should be available everywhere.”

The report also found: TOP TEN KEY IMPROVEMENTS FOR PARTICIPANTS 1. 64% Feel Happier 2. 64% Took Part in Other Activities 3. 60% Found It Easier to Connect 4. 52% Socialised More and Made New Friends 5. 51% Made More Eye Contact 6. 50% Were More Sociable with Carers 7. 50% Were More Alert 8. 50% More Interested in What Is Happening Around Them 9. 46% Found It Easier to Communicate 10. 49%

I hope you will find the content in our first issue informative and helpful. Adur Health Partnership is a group of three surgeries working at four sites across Shoreham and Southwick. The Partnership was formed in January 2021, following the successful merger of three local practices – Harbourview Healthcare (running from Shoreham Health Centre and its branch surgery in Southwick, Downsway Surgery), The Manor Practice in Southwick, and Northbourne Medical Centre in Shoreham. There are 12 GP partners at Adur Health Partnership, supported by a team of salaried GPs, Nurses, Pharmacists, Care Coordinators and Social Prescribers, as well as our team of Receptionists, Administration teams, and our Executive management team. Together, it is our mission to improve and support the health and wellbeing of the community we serve.

We welcome feedback from our patients, carers and others in our community. Please see our sections about our Patient Engagement Group and Friends and Family Test Feedback to find out more.

Best wishes

HEALTH KIOSKS Sarah Ellett Chief Executive

Self-Screening Health Kiosks have arrived to Northbourne Medical Centre, Shoreham Health Centre and Manor Practice!

FRIENDS AND FAMILY TEST

We have upgraded our blood pressure machines to Self-Screening Health Kiosks, which can do so much more that just take our patients' blood pressure.

Adur Health Partnership participates in an anonymous and voluntary national NHS feedback system called Friends and Family Test. Patients are asked to complete a short questionnaire rating their experience following their GP or Nurse appointment.

We received exactly 300 responses from our patients in August 2022.

239 patients responded – Very good 23 patients responded – Good 11 patients responded – Neither good nor poor 9 patients responded - Poor 5 patients responded – Very poor 1 patient responded – I don’t know We welcome all feedback which our patients, cares and family can submit either via our website, in person at our surgeries or by email: sxicb-wsx.ahp@nhs.net.

What do the Health Kiosks do?

Measure Blood Pressure/Height/Weight/BMI Take health questionnaires No need for an appointment Results are uploaded into the patient records for clinical review These Health Kiosks are for all our patients to use free of charge and are available at Northbourne Medical Centre, Shoreham Health Centre and Manor Practice during the surgeries' opening hours.

Downsway Surgery has its own blood pressure machine from September 2022.

ISSUE 1

COVID AND FLU CLINICS Our Covid and Flu clinics commenced on 17th September 2022. Our Covid and Flu clinics will continue to run on Saturdays and Sundays during October and November. Once we have vaccinated people in the first priority groups (this includes care home residents and those over 75 years of age as per the guidance from the Joint Commission on Vaccine & Immunisation), we will contact other patients registered with us to offer them their COVID-19 and flu vaccines as appropriate.

Patients aged 50-64, who are not in a clinical or at risk group, will be eligible for flu vaccination from 15th October 2022.

Please look out for these calls and messages and please do respond so that we can vaccinate as many people in our local community as possible. Please do not contact your practice: we will contact you when you are eligible to receive your vaccine/s.

We are very happy to announce that from October Adur Health Partnership is offering extended hours appointments in addition to our appointments during our usual opening hours ( Monday to Friday 8 am to 6.30 pm), as part of a new NHS initiative.

All of the appointments are available to be booked in advance. No same day bookings will be available and our phone lines will be not be open during the extended hours.

Some of these appointments will be used for the Autumn COVID and flu vaccinations for those of you who are eligible to receive them. We’ve been holding Saturday clinics since the beginning of July and these have gone well and have been popular with patients and staff.

‘Love to Move + Time to Chat’ Laughed More.

Exercise and companionship are key to a healthy and happy life but more needs to be done for older people in Brighton, Hove and Shoreham, according to research carried out by Home Instead. The home care company surveyed more than 2,000 over 65s. 90% of survey respondents stated that regular companionship would help them to stay mentally and physically healthy for longer. But over a quarter of over 65s reported spending eight hours alone daily, with almost half (49%) of over 85s facing at least ten hours a day alone.

Refreshments are provided after the Southwick ‘Love to Move + Time to Chat’, when time to socialise will give attendees the opportunity to reconnect further to the local community following COVID-19 isolation. Initial reluctance to join from some older people may be encountered, but feedback from participants is overwhelmingly positive. Cherry Tolcher, who runs the Shoreham

exercises, says:

“Most importantly the class is about having fun to the tunes of the 1950s and 60s. You really see a difference in people’s wellbeing as they leave the class uplifted. Real friendships have developed through the classes for both participants and carers which is so needed as we move forward from restrictions. One of my other group participants summed it up nicely, ‘My mum who has Alzheimer’s absolutely loves these sessions.

It’s a wonderful activity that we can do together, and she really comes alive!’”

‘Love to Move + Time to Chat’ runs on Tuesdays, 10-11.30am, at Southwick Community Centre, 24 Southwick Street, BN42 4TE. Sessions will run in blocks of several weeks, full details on booking - contact Linda on 01273 284090 or email admin.brighton@homeinstead.co.uk

COST OF LIVING CRISIS:

WHY YOU SHOULD REVIEW YOUR BUDGET AND PLANS The cost of living is rising. In the 12 months to The steps you take now could affect your July 2022, inflation was 10.1% – the first time long-term plans price rises have been in double digits since 1982. While it’s important to focus on how the cost of living There are several factors contributing to rising inflation, including the conflict in Ukraine, which has disrupted energy and food supplies.

Energy bills are set to become one of the largest outgoings for families. Several increases to the energy price cap, which is set by Ofgem, mean the cost of energy has already soared.

The price cap will increase again in October and the average home’s energy bill will reach £3,549 a year.

It’s expected that the price cap will rise further in January 2023.

Now is the ideal time to review your budget Keeping track of your finances during the cost of living crisis is crucial.

In the short term, you should review your budget. Can your budget absorb the higher costs, or do you need to make lifestyle changes? Will rising energy prices mean you need to be more mindful of energy use or reduce expenses in other areas?

crisis is affecting your finances now, don’t forget to consider the long-term effects too.

Research suggests that some people are cutting back on outgoings that could improve their long-term financial security.

According to Canada Life, 11% of adults are considering pausing their pension contributions, or have already done so.

While pausing contributions for a few months may seem like it will have little effect on your retirement, it can be larger than you think. The power of compounding means that pausing pension contributions for just a year could reduce the value of your pension at retirement by 4%.

Migraine Matters Shona Campbell, Acupuncturist at Shoreham Osteopathy Centre, investigates the causes and ways to find relief from this often disabling condition.

Migraine affects around 10 million people in the UK. The symptoms vary, but are often experienced as one or more of the following: •

Debilitating head pain

•

Aura or visual disturbances

• •

Photosensitivity

Nausea and/or vomiting

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) provides guidelines for the NHS on the use of treatments and care of patients. NICE currently recommends considering Acupuncture as a treatment for migraines and chronic tension headaches. The mechanisms are still being researched and there are some theories being explored as to why this condition happens. When people attend an Acupuncture treatment, I look at the following areas for treatment.

1/ Structural. Sometimes an old injury or structural issue in the upper back, neck or shoulder area can contribute to migraine headaches. There is a theory that one cause of migraine occurrence is a lack of blood flow to the brain caused by a constriction of blood vessels. This can be addressed by acupuncture to increase blood flow and healing to the muscles.

2/ Gut health. There is another theory that migraine occurs when there is a drop in serotonin levels to the brain. 90% of serotonin is made in the gut, and so looking at diet and lifestyle factors to help gut function, as well as Acupuncture treatments to help gut healing, can be beneficial for sufferers.

3/ Stress. Prolonged levels of stress produces excess cortisol. High levels of cortisol reduce serotonin levels, so this becomes very important in treatment approaches and prevention of symptoms.

Acupuncture has been shown to reduce cortisol and increase serotonin levels.

In addition, other lifestyle factors can help with a reduction in stress such as

meditation practices and regular exercise to help with the free flow of stuck energy.

Boosting the feel-good factor will reduce stress which in turn helps with symptoms.

4/ Energetic flow. Chinese medicine believes there is a correct direction for the body’s energy to flow around the body, and incorrect or blocked flow can cause disease. A principal part of an acupuncture treatment is to assist correct flow, and to redirect energy for optimal health.

Brighton Photo Fringe 2022 The biennial event, Brighton Photo Fringe festival runs from 6th to 30th October with exhibitions taking place online and in venues across and beyond Brighton and Hove.

My personal involvement is to be part of a group of nine photographers calling ourselves the TIDES group.

This will be our third exhibition which, once again, will be displayed on Brighton beach, just below the Grand Hotel a short walk to the east of the i360.

This exhibition site has been in place since 2016 and was initially intended to house our exhibition for the one month duration of that years Photo Fringe. However, it became very popular and has since been copied both in Brighton and Worthing so has remained in place. TIDES photographers are all members of Brighton and Hove Camera Club so we decided to share the space with the club in between Photo Fringe events so the exhibited photographs change every few months.

This year our project concentrates on the

Madeira Drive area which sadly fell into disrepair but is now undergoing extensive restoration. Each TIDES group member has chosen to document this area in a personal way. My own four images reflect on the demise and ongoing restoration using reality and metaphor to express my sadness at the decline as well as my hope for the future.

My image above is one which didn’t make the final cut.

You can view other ‘near misses’ from TIDES members on our Facebook group page: www.facebook.com/ groups/tides3 www.instagram.com/ shoreham_steve I am now on Vero: vero.co/shoreham_ steve If you would like to be included on my mailing list, email me : steveboylephotos@gmail.com

A New Vicar for St Mary de Haura Following the retirement earlier this year of the Revd Canon Ann Waizeneker as Vicar of New Shoreham and Shoreham Beach, St Mary de Haura prepares to welcome her replacement, the Revd Andrew Bennison, who was licensed on Monday 3rd October.

Shoreham will be a new home for Revd Andrew, who is relocating from his current parish in Manchester to take up the appointment as Vicar of both St Mary de Haura, New Shoreham and the Church of the Good Shepherd, Shoreham Beach. He is excited about the prospect of ministry at the heart of the local community. ‘St Mary de Haura has stood at the heart of New Shoreham for 900 years’, Andrew remarked.

‘It’s a privilege to be joining a church which is so valued and loved by its local community. My mission is to keep St Mary de Haura as exactly that: a home for everyone in Shoreham, open each day to those who wish to sit, wonder and worship in such a beautiful building’.

It will certainly be a busy start for Andrew, who takes up his appointment at the beginning of the

Shoreham Wordfest Festival, running from 3rd - 16th October, with a number of events hosted at St Mary’s. The town’s annual Remembrance Day service follows soon after in November, with services and events for Advent and Christmas just around the corner. Plenty, therefore, to keep the new Vicar on his toes!

So, is Andrew daunted at the prospect of his new role? ‘A little’, he admitted, ‘but everyone I’ve spoken to so far has been extremely warm and welcoming. There’s a recognition, of course, of the challenges facing the church to remain relevant in today’s secular culture. But my sense is that even those who don’t identify as “religious” usually have something to say about spirituality, identity and life’s big questions. As a church, we need to make sure that we’re a welcoming and hospitable place for people to come and find meaning. There’s so much we still have to offer’.

For more information about the church, please visit the website: www.stmarydehaura.org.uk

Are you a Friend of St Mary’s?

It costs just £10 a year to supports the maintenance and restoration of this beautiful building in the heart of Shoreham. Please consider supporting: www.stmarydehaura.org.uk To advertise call 01273 452065 www.insideshoreham.com or email: insidemags@gmail.com

Local families affected by dementia are being invited to take part in an award-winning programme, to help train the healthcare professionals of tomorrow and improve dementia care.

The Time for Dementia project, supported

by Alzheimer’s Society, pairs families affected by dementia with undergraduate students, helping to better educate them about life with dementia and the challenges that come with it.

This autumn a new cohort of Brighton and Sussex Medical School medical students will be taking part and Alzheimer’s Society are now seeking families in the area who would like the opportunity to make a difference to training health professionals.

Time for Dementia is a fantastic way for the next generation of healthcare professionals to gain firsthand knowledge of what it’s like living with dementia.

Footwear This month Karen our podiatrist at First Foot Clinic, Shoreham-by-Sea, talks about the importance of Footwear: Footwear is a common contributing factor in many foot complaints. An American study called “If the shoe fits, wear it” found that nine out of ten women are wearing shoes that are too small and, after the age of 60, some 70% of women will have osteoarthritis problems in their feet. Whilst women do appear to have more footwear related problems, men also have footwear related problems too.

As you get older, your feet tend to spread, but few people get them measured after the age of 20. Foot problems most commonly appear in the 40s, 50s, and 60s following decades of persevering with poorly fitting footwear. If social expectations of both men’s and women’s appearance and the sort of shoes that are “acceptable” changed, then there would be far fewer foot problems.

Contact us for an appointment on 01273 455080 email@firstfootclinic.co.uk or www. firstfootclinic.co.uk

Quick tips to remember when shoe shopping  Make sure you can wiggle your toes inside your shoes  Feet tend to swell a little during the day, so buy shoes in the afternoon when your feet are at their largest  Buy the right shoe for the purpose  If you wear insoles (orthotics) or feel you may need insoles, buy shoes with removable footbeds to ensure room for your foot as well as the insole (your podiatrist can assess you for insoles/orthotics)  Buying shoes in a “Sale” may save money, but could cost your feet dearly.

Ensure they fit correctly

Lions Fighting Cancer Lions clubs work hard in communities throughout the world, wherever there is a need.

This can be fundraising for a specific cause or supporting groups and individuals.

Fighting cancer is one of its many aims and in July, the Adur East Lions held their second Annual Golf Day event at Worthing Golf Club. A round of golf was followed by a delicious lunch, auction and raffle, which raised over £1600 for Brain Tumour Research. It was a fantastic day; everyone had a great time and the photo shows the winning team receiving their medals. The event was well supported by Lions from across the region and local businesses who donated a wide range of items.

Tim Loughton also provided some extra interest for the auction, with a bottle of House of Commons whisky signed by the former Prime Minister! Plans have already commenced for our 2023 event.

Looking ahead, on Sunday October 9th a Lions team (including Adur East Lions David Sluys, pictured heading out of the photo in the blue shirt and baseball cap), will be taking part in the East Grinstead 10K race to raise funds for LIBRA (Lions International Blood Research Appeal).

This will help raise much needed funds ensuring new treatments for blood cancers and blood disorders can be created.

There is no limit on the size of the Lions team and we are very keen for other runners to join us. It does not matter if you are new to running, we would love to have you on our team. In fact, the route was voted ‘Best Race for Beginners’ in Runners World 2013! The race is mainly off-road, on footpaths and bridleways and follows a picturesque route.

If you would like to join David, or would like more information, he can be contacted at

liondavidsluys@gmail.com

Alternatively, donations can be made directly to the Lions Giving LIBRA page at www.lionsgiving.co.uk/appeal/libra

If you’d like to learn more about the Lions, come and find us on our stall at the Shoreham Artisan Market on the fourth Saturday of the month - we’d love to meet you!

How can you help make zero hunger a reality?

We’re all worried at the cost-ofliving crisis, thinking ‘what can I cut back on?’ but for some the question is ‘how will I be able to feed my family?’

There’s no reason anyone should go hungry this winter, and we have the will and ability in our communities to make the dream of zero hunger a reality.

Helping those in need get the support they need

One organisation helping those in need is Citizens Advice (CA). They are doing vital work to help local people who cannot afford to eat properly or heat their homes this winter.

The services CA offer are more in demand than ever. They provide services to over 30,000 people a year with more than 90,000 problems, but they need your help to support residents in our community who are struggling with rising costs.

Come and join the team

Everyone has something they’re good at which they can use to help others in the community. There are many roles at the CA where you can use your skills to help; here are some current positions they need volunteers for:

• • • • • Greet •

Communications volunteers Social Media Volunteer Volunteer Adviser Volunteer Client Service Administrator Volunteer Client Service Meet and Volunteer Receptionist

By volunteering with CA, you can make a real difference in the community. They offer volunteers a wide range training, expenses are covered, and you’ll get to be part of a fun and diverse team.

If you are interested in volunteering for Citizens Advice, visit the Community Works website to find out more.
