Welcome...

It’s holiday time again, towards the end of this month the schools break up for the summer. If you’re looking for things to do over the summer break then there are plenty of events listed in our What’s On guide starting on page 4 - and more listed on our website at www.sussexlocal.net.

Whether you are at home or away this month do find time to enter our competition to win tickets to the Loxwood Joust - see page 16. This unique family event takes place over two weekends in August and sees armoured knights on horseback jousting along with other terrific Mediaeval attractions. We have a family ticket up for grabs which include VIP seats in the Royal Pavilion for the best views of the jousts.

Our main article this month is a feature on West Sussex charity Whizz Kids. Providing equipment and support, this worthy charity is radically improving lives of local disabled youngsters. See page 28.

Designing with Perennials is this month’s gardening topic on page 34 along with the main monthly tasks. Our July recipe (p26) is perfect for the barbecue (let’s hope the weather co-operates!) and our local history article on page 25 is about wartime spying at Ford Aerodrome.

Thanks for reading,

WSCC says that to foster a child, people need – a spare room, a sense of humour, commitment, time, advocacy skills and some experience with children or teenagers. For information on fostering: www.westsussex.gov.uk/ campaigns/time-to-foster-time-to-care/ Efforts have been stepped up to protect the iconic Adur Ferry Bridge in Shoreham-By-Sea from vandalism – vandals have damaged nineteen glass panels since the bridge opened, and in two separate

SUSSEX LOCAL incidents in the past two weeks, red and blue paint and graffiti was daubed over glass panels, the deck and central posts. The bridge already has CCTV cameras capable of recording evidence trained upon it and now further actions are being considered to tackle anti-social behaviour there.

News about Cleansing Public Conveniences - All Change As Cabinet member responsible for, amongst other things, public conveniences there was a very important report under discussion by the combined Leisure, Tourism and the Environment working party in June.

Arun has quite a few public toilets, some of them are in a poor condition and money needs to be invested in order to bring the most used of these up to a decent standard, but this will result in a consolidation of existing toilets.

Some toilets are in remote rural locations and in the wintertime they can be used for anti social behaviour.

So, in general terms, what the paper proposes is closing some of the more rural toilets during the winter months, investing in the high volume toilets, by introducing things like showers for seaside locations, and consulting on closing some toilets to save money.

Parishes and town councils will be given options to take over some toilets and develop them for mixed use, for instance, by introducing a business tenant to oversee the toilets and also make money from their business. Many locations could be converted to cafes, cycle shops, taxi offices etc., as well as having

public toilets.

I mentioned this to Arundel Town Council (ATC) recently and indicated that the Crown Yard toilets might be a candidate; either to be closed, or be delegated to the local Parish (i.e. the Town Council), This is an opportunity – the existing toilets are huge, could easily occupy half the space and the rest be sub let to a business such as a cycle shop. If ATC should wish to take over operation it could be a win win situation for everyone, providing a revenue flow for ATC whilst maintaining some sort of presence and saving the taxpayer money.

I try to be straight with you the resident and taxpayer and hopefully you will take on board that this is a consultation and not a decision, but money has to be saved and we need to find new ways of working. Your feedback to Arun will be welcome, but maintaining the status quo is not really an option.

Museum Receives Queen’s Award

The volunteers of Arundel Museum Society, who work in the community to create a gateway to the past that is enjoyable and accessible to all, have been honoured with the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service – the highest award a voluntary group can receive in the UK. Arundel Museum Society is one of only 193 charities, social enterprises and voluntary groups to receive the prestigious award this year. The number of awards given to groups this year is slightly higher than last year, showing that the voluntary sector is thriving and full of innovative ideas to tackle community challenges. The Queen’s Awards were created in 2002 to celebrate the Queen’s Golden Jubilee and winners are announced each year on 2 June – the anniversary of the Queen’s Coronation. Arundel Museum Society will receive the award from the Lord Lieutenant of West Sussex later this summer. Arundel Museum 01903 885866 www.arundelmuseum.org

The “Abolition of the NHS”

A screening of “Sell-Off: The Abolition of the NHS” (a film by Peter Bach) took place recently at the Bassil Shippam Centre in Chichester, and was organised by

Chichester and Bognor Green Party, with the support of Coastal West Sussex 38 Degrees NHS Group.

The film is a critique of successive governments’ policies regarding the NHS. A principal target being the Coalition regime, 2010 - 2015, in which the controversial Health and Social Care Act (2012) was passed, an Act intended to open the NHS to greater market forces, and ultimately to its comprehensive privatization. The film contains many interviews with NHS professionals, practitioners and managers, and with academics who have published extensively on the subject. Following the screening, Dr Diana Brighouse, from Southampton University, chaired a Q&A with two of the films participants, Dr Bob Gill and Dr Lucy Reynolds. The event closed with a vote of thanks from a spokesperson from Coastal West Sussex 38 Degrees NHS Group.

She is described as an affectionate cat with a lot of energy to burn. She has been rehomed twice previously from the Centre, but has been returned both times and is now looking for a home with a garden that she can run around in. She could live with older children, but isn’t keen on other cats. Rayna does have a tendency to eat her food very quickly so her new owner will need to keep an eye on her food intake.

Have you been trying lose weight with little or no success?

Have you thought about hypnotherapy and the Virtual Gastric Band?

Hypnotherapy is a gentle, safe and effective way of helping you to take control of your fears, phobias, habits and stress. Through deep relaxation, you can find peace of mind and overcome any issues you have that may be holding you back from achieving success and allowing you to enjoy your life to the full.

If your problem is dieting and you’re having little or no success, or maybe you have a food addiction that you want to control, gentle hypnosis can help you make changes and transform your life.

As well as hypnosis for anxiety, compulsive behaviours and general health and wellbeing, Hypnotique is now offering the new HYPNO-GASTRIC BAND treatment to help clients create new behaviours, make changes in eating habits and identify positive alternative choices in attitudes towards food.

Run over a series of four hypnotic sessions, the VIRTUAL GASTRIC BAND is growing in popularity as a way to help overweight people shed unwanted pounds by being hypnotised into believing they have had their stomachs reduced, rather than undergoing the real surgical procedure.

If you would like to know how hypnosis could help you with controlling your weight, or other issues that bother you, contact Hypnotique for further information.

Home is where the Heart is Can you imagine how you would feel if it was suggested that you leave your home and loved one and move to an “old people’s home”… Panic, anger, fear, betrayal are some words that come to mind.

When the time comes for residential specialist dementia care, it is ROOM AVAILABLE NOW! when the quality of life for both sufferer and carer can be improved.

Woodlands offers twenty-four hour professional care with the majority of staff having the equivalent of NVQ 3 and 4 with continuous updated courses provided. Families are able to take their loved one out or enjoy home made tea and cake in a relaxed atmosphere within the home daily or when ever is possible for them. This allows for quality social time, and families know that the personal, nutritional and complex care needs of their loved ones are being provided for every hour of the day.

There is however one fact that is not frequently admitted. This is… that the earlier this move takes place, the better the result for the resident as they are able to cope with the changes to their lifestyle. No-one wants to make this sad decision, and in reality the temptation is to wait and “see how it goes”. Unfortunately, what so often happens is a catastrophe! A fall, midnight walk, not to mention all the little things that can play havoc with Dementia - lack of nutrition, hydration, cleanliness leading to infections and indeed the appearance that the actual Dementia is worse than it is!

Why would we want minimum care at home, instead of the continuously caring atmosphere where a sufferer of Dementia is protected from all of the fear, indignity and complete isolation they experience most of the time. Come and visit Woodlands and see the difference professional family care could make for your loved one.

We have a saying at Woodlands, “Enable a person to be the best they can be!”

Local History

A Curious Event in WWII Arundel By Mark Phillips The article notes that an aircraft fitter by the name of Thomas Spencer said that he saw Holmes, “… standing against the fence with the bottom button of his coat fastened but the two above it left open. He then faced one of the planes the other side of the fence, bent over slightly and appeared to put his hand in his coat.”

It appears that at this point wo civilians walked by and startled Holmes who stopped his unusual behaviour, lit up a cigarette and strolled away. He was later seen to return and repeat his actions at which point he was seen, “…operating a camera hidden under his coat.” He was challenged and taken into custody.

Smoke rises from Ford Airfield, near Arundel following the German raid on 18th August 1940

A local Arundel resident once told me a fascinating story about an Arundel man named William Treutler Holmes who was imprisoned during WW2 for ‘spying’ at Ford Aerodrome, a couple of miles from Arundel.

I totally forgot about this story until many months later, while working on a totally unconnected project, I came across a cutting from an unnamed newspaper dated October 1940 with the heading, ‘German’s Son Jailed For Photo Of Plane’.

My research discovered that not only was Holmes the son of a high ranking doctor who served with distinction in the German Navy until his death the previous year that a London newspaper from the 1920’s noted his birth name was William Treutler and that he had legally changed it to William Treutler Holmes.

37-year-old Holmes, who at the time was Deputy Commander of the Arundel Home Guard, was charged with photographing aircraft and the wireless station at Ford Airfield while employed by Sinclair’s, a respectable Arundel Joinery company.

Following the devastating German raid on Ford on 18th August 1940 in which a number of people were killed and injured and many huts and buildings were destroyed, the contract of repairing the buildings was awarded to Sinclair’s.

Holmes was appointed as the onsite Works Manager to oversee the project and it was during this time that the following was reported.

During the trial at Arundel, Holmes was defended by Mr H.S. Falconer who made good use of the fact that the defendant was educated at Sandhurst and later became a Lieutenant. However, with the Arundel ‘Rumour Mill’ already in full swing, muffled sniggering was heard in court when Falconer went on to say that Holmes had, “… joined the Observer Corps when the war broke out because of his keenness in studying aeroplanes.”

Yet more sniggers as sergeant Elphick from Arundel Home Guard gave Holmes a character witness that included the statement that Holmes had, “…taken a photo of a bomb crater in front of a wireless station for a lecture to the Home Guards on high explosives.”

Before sentence was passed, Falconer complained it was unfair that people in Arundel had been saying that Holmes was a Fifth Columnist – a German spy.

Holmes was sentenced to 3 months and fined £30.00 with £2 15 Shillings costs.

Shady sanctuary Use your conservatory more this summer Sail Blinds are the new way to shade your conservatory. They control heat and glare and work with any shape of roof or construction type. They were developed specifically for UK conservatories and tackle some of the issues associated with traditional blind solutions with a totally new approach.

The specially designed sail uses a high performance fabric to control the heat without having to cover all of the roof so that you can enjoy all of the benefits of the view and sun without the excessive heat. And a breathable fabric and robust flexible construction means if you wanted to you could wash them with your socks!

Direct Blinds have been a leading supplier of conservatory shade solutions for over 20 years, they started selling InShade sail blinds 3 years ago and are now the number 1 supplier on the south coast. John Massie, Owner of Direct Blinds Worthing says “our customers

Whizz-Kidz Helping disabled youngsters find confidence and independence For 26 years national charity, Whizz-Kidz has been transforming the lives of disabled children in the UK by providing the vital equipment, support and life skills they need to reach their full potential, and offers a range of services in West Sussex.

Back in 1989, Whizz-Kidz founder, Mike Dickson, was in his bike shop when he saw a girl in a wheelchair looking up at a bike light on a higher shelf. When Mike asked if he could help, the girl politely replied, ‘No thanks, I can reach it myself,’ pushed a button her powered wheelchair and rose up to take the light off the shelf herself. It was at that moment that Mike realized the difference that the right wheelchair could make to a child’s life. That small action of picking something off a high shelf meant something a lot bigger – it meant independence. Mike ran the London Marathon that year and, remembering the moment in the bike shop, pledged to raise the money to buy a powered wheelchair for a child who needed it – he raised £9,000 for a girl with cerebral palsy and the following year he founded Whizz-Kidz.

The charity provides a range of mobility equipment for children and young people with physical disabilities – including manual and powered wheelchairs, buggies and trikes, and in some cases they may also be able to offer sports wheelchairs – allowing them to be independent in all areas of their lives. The charity works with young people from roughly two to twenty five years of age, supporting young people at different stages throughout their journey into adulthood. However, Whizz-Kidz mission statement is for all disabled children’s lives to be full of fun, friendship and freedom, and for them the wheelchair is just the start of achieving this aim. The charity also runs clubs and camps, provides wheelchair skills training and work placements to help young people develop confidence and independence, and offers services to help disabled young people, their parents or carers Whizz-Kidz services in West Sussex centre upon the charity’s Ambassador Youth Club in Worthing. Ambassador Clubs give young disabled people a place to meet, make friends and have fun, and they provide a range of activities including, music, dance, art, sports, beauty therapy, cooking and trips out. They also run campaigns to help improve the lives of young disabled people by raising awareness of disability issues and campaigning for better facilities. Other services that run throughout the county include Wheelchair Skills Courses, Work Placements that are tailored to each young person’s needs and also Residential Camps that come to the South East once a year, providing young people with a two night stay independent of their parent or carer – Camp Whizz-Kidz is designed for wheelchair users aged from twelve to twenty five.

The Wheelchair Skills Courses work in partnership with local primary, secondary and special schools teaching users how to get the most from their wheelchairs. There are three levels of training provided – beginners, intermediate and advanced – and children can learn how to tackle kerbs, perfect their reversing skills or learn how to safely carry items in their chair. Training events support wheelchair users aged from two to twenty five and are delivered by experienced trainers, many of whom use wheelchairs themselves.

For an older age group, Work Placements allow disabled young people, aged from fourteen to twenty five years old, to gain invaluable experience of the workplace, learn more about a career, acquire useful contacts and improve their employability. The service offers a range of opportunities and works in one of two ways – either a company will offer a placement and the charity finds a candidate to fill it, or else a candidate will contact them and ask for a specific placement which the charity then do their best to find.

The charity also organises Work Skills Days, offering youngsters a valuable chance to meet employers and friends and to learn about and consider future career paths in a social environment. During the day participants undertake interactive workshops, working as a team and individually, and learning about CV building, career planning and disability rights, resulting in a boost of confidence, experience in the work place and the opportunity to work with Whizz-Kidz in the future with a Work Placement.

In addition to the charity’s core programme of services, young people can also sign up to the Young Leaderz programme that develops vital leadership, decision-making and teamwork skills, encouraging the development of new mind-sets and attributes by completing modules such as ‘Becoming a Role Model’.

Whizz-Kidz is always looking to grow the services it provides and so reach more young people and families that need the charity’s support. The Ambassador Club, along with all of the Young People’s Services offered, welcomes new young people.

So, how do families take up the services offered by Whizz-Kidz? Whizz-Kidz works in collaboration with the NHS and with respect to the provision of mobility equipment, the charity’s guidelines state that: “The NHS should always be a family’s first port of call for mobility equipment. However, if your local NHS Wheelchair Service does not provide equipment to meet the essential mobility needs of your child then we may able to help.” It may be that children are un-

through the door able to obtain appropriate equipment to fit all of their needs, as different NHS areas apply eligibility criteria in varying ways so families may find geography plays a part in their experiences. There may also be a longer NHS waiting list for particular types of equipment. Whizz-Kidz receives all its referrals for wheelchairs from the NHS, but they state that their “approach is more holistic,” with their therapists assessing disabled children and young people so “we can give them an appropriate wheelchair to fit their young lives.” Full details on how to apply for Wheelchair Services, along with the other services provided

by Whizz-Kidz, can be found on the charity’s website.

The majority of Whizz-Kidz funding comes from donations – the charity raised £6.4million in 2014, more than eighty percent of which came from voluntary sources including trusts, companies and individuals.

Thus investing in fund raising is a vital part of the organisations sustainability. Again in 2014, 28pence from every £1 raised went towards fundraising, with the remaining 72pence being spent on services to transform the lives of disabled children.

In common with most charities, Whizz-Kidz enjoys the support of an enthusiastic team of volunteers, who assist in the delivery of a number of their services across the UK, and more specifically in the South East. However, Whizz-Kidz always has a need for more volunteers to help the charity reach more young

people. Volunteers can get involved in a variety of ways – with the young people’s services, like the Ambassador Youth Clubs, there is a club in Brighton as well as the Worthing branch; with Wheelchair Skills Courses or by supporting the fundraising team in the county. There is also a new mentoring programme underway with the charity providing training for those volunteers wishing to mentor young people. The recruitment process is always open and volunteers can investigate opportunities available on the Whizz-Kidz website.

Clear Appeal Windows, doors & conservatories For many people the words "double glazing" evoke images of over enthusiastic salesmen.

Thankfully nowadays reputable companies tend to adopt a more customer-focused approach.

Brian Attwater has over 30 years experience in windows and home improvements. Brian has been in business since 2008 with his son Mark (pictured above) and told us that he believes the future growth of the company depends upon dedicated customer service. In his opinion an open and honest approach is of prime importance both at the quotation stage and during fitting.

He described the company’s wide range of windows, doors and conservatories with designs and colours selected to satisfy the most discerning client. He particularly praised the Kommerling Valentis Curve PVCU windows and the bi-fold scenic patio doors.

Brian is happy to offer a quotation by phone or via the website and offers a follow up survey to ensure there are no hidden extras. Tel 01903 765 506 or visit www.attwaterhomeimprovements.co.uk

Too much information

By Richard Cohen JP FPFS ACII MCSI Chartered Financial Planner The long term higher return you usually get from investments is the reward you get for putting up with a rougher ride. With that in mind is it sensible to worry about every daily movement? Is there any downside to checking regularly? Possibly…

The problem is that in the short term markets are unpredictable. Whilst the FTSE 100 is not everything when it comes to investing and hopefully an investor will have a diversified portfolio made up of different asset classes from all over the world, it does provide us with 32 years’ worth of market data. With that in mind let’s look at three investors who all invested £10,000 in a FTSE 100 tracker when the index was created in 1984.

The first likes to know exactly what they are worth each day and logs on to their account each morning to see the value of their fund, pre internet they checked the FTSE 100 on teletext. Our second investor phones up their adviser at the start of each month to check how things are doing and our final investor wait for their annual review with their adviser.

Since 1984 the FTSE 100 has risen around five fold,

so all three investors will now have around £60,000.

Whilst they will have paid charges to be invested they will have received far more in dividends and if they had reinvested those dividends they would have benefited from compounding. However, to keep things simple I’m using a no dividend, no charge scenario.

Despite the massive capital return the FTSE 100 has provided, since its inception it has only risen on 51% of trading days. Our first investor is going to be disappointed around half the time he checks in.

The FTSE 100 has risen 59% of calendar months, so on average each year seven of the monthly calls will have been positive. Finally, the FTSE has risen in 72% of calendar years therefore the final investor will only have been disappointed nine times over the 32 years.

In my experience the last two investors are happier and have a more positive outlook on investing.

I’m not suggesting investors should bury their heads in the sand but it’s important to remember the long term reasons you invested and remember the bigger picture.

33 Gardening

In Your Garden Monthly gardening ideas and tasks by Andrew Staib of Glorious Gardens Flats - The classic one is Achellia whose flower heads look like like saucers on a stem – A.Praprica is lovely Sprays and Plumes - These plants soften up a planting scheme and relax the forms of the other plants and the overall look of the bed- grasses are the obvious choice as well as tall Crocosmia at the back of a border and tall, languid Bronze Fennel Windows - These are plants that are so delicate and spacious that one can see through them to the other plants. Two examples are Stipa giganta and Verbena bonariensis (try ‘ V.b Lollypop’ if you don’t want too much height) Spires and Spikes - these shapes are pretty much essential if you want variation of form –as well as Foxgloves and Acanthus you can think of Veronicastrum, Astilbes in moist soil or the smaller,the bushy spikes of Lavender and the bullet proof, bottle brush flowers of the Persicaria family.

Lattice - This is found in the strong lines of ferns

Designing with Perennials Perennials are the smaller plants in your garden that die back each winter and spring back to life the next year.

This month we are going to look at how you can put them together and how to make a combination of an interesting variety of shapes. (We will look at colour in a future article) A good flower bed needs a blend of shapes and tones – otherwise it can look boring and ‘samey’. Below are some categorise that will help you see what could perhaps enrich your garden beds.

Froth - These are plants that have an abundance of small, light flowers like Gypsophila and Crambe cordifolia Buttons - These flowers are bright dots of colours like Geum and Dianthus, Poppies and Alliums

your borders eg Hostas, Day Lillies and Bergenias Soft - Lamb’s Ears, French Lavender, Sage Daisy shapes - These classic flower shapes are found in Asters and Heleniums- but work best in combination with the rest of the above - a whole garden of daisy shaped flowers would drive one mad.

Hopefully this will help you look at your borders afresh to see what extra instruments are needed in your orchestra.

What to do in July The National Garden Scheme is still running.

Lush - Here the leave is full and green and offsets the more woody qualities of some of the other plants in

Founded in 1927 the scheme encouraged people to open up their gardens to the public to raise money for the newly formed district nurses role in poor urban areas. It has moved on since

SUSSEX LOCAL

35 Gardening then, from “a shilling a head” to raised over 20 million pounds for a variety of charities in the last 10 years.

If you go to the NGS website and type in ‘Sussex’ the dates you are free and you will find 36 gardens that are opening their gates in July though each garden is just open for a day or two only. Most serve tea and cakes.

Gardening Tasks for July 

Deadhead perennial flowers as they will often create a new flush of buds as you inhibit the energy of the plant going into seed production. Plus the first flush of Hybrid and Patio roses may have finished so deadhead them back to a couple of new, outward facing buds.



It is safe to bring any tender plants out from your conservatory now.



Make sure any ponds don’t get swamped with blanket weed.



Any shrubs that flowered in June can be cut back eg Wigelia and Philadelphius.



Any new plants that went in this year will dry out much faster than established plants as their roots are not as plugged into the surrounding soil.



Keep pinching out side shoots on your tomatoes.



Keep sowing salad for a continuous crop.
