Welcome...

The disabled athletes competing in the Paralympic games in Rio recently have amazed the world with their incredible sporting achievements. Walberton based charity ‘Just Different’ aims to further spread the word that disabled people are just as capable as the able-bodied given the right equipment and support. Read our profile on this inspiring charity on page 24.

Our recipe this month is for Spaghetti with Clams. These sweet and tender tiny shellfish are in season during the autumn enjoy! See page 32.

This month you can win tickets to see ‘Swan Lake’. A tragic romance, Swan Lake is one of the most loved and challenging ballets, not least thanks to Tchaikovsky’s instantly recognisable score, but also the great ‘Pas de Deux’,’Pas de Quatre’ and iconic ‘Dance des Petits Cygnes’ (dance of little swans). See page 41.

Our gardening article this month is an amazingly informative piece on bulbs. Now is the time to plant them for next Spring see page 35.

There’s Parish Council news on page 39 and also community updates and other charity news starting on page 20.

Finally there’s plenty going on locally including events for children over the half term. Our What’s On guide starts on page 4.

Beautiful Verona!

I have just spent a long weekend in this fabulous city – and what a hidden gem Verona is! If you like cobbled streets, Shakespeare (Verona inspired many of his plays), beautiful houses and delicious Italian food you’ll love this wonderful place. As an added bonus, wonderful Lake Garda is close enough to visit in a day.

We spent our days walking around the city and as it’s quite small you can see most of it in a few days and have time to spend a day on the lakes as we did. A must is a visit to the Arena, a Roman Amphitheatre which dates back to AD30 and still hosts concerts and opera today.

You can also see a lot of tributes to Romeo and Juliet and the house which is supposedly the inspiration behind the play. I fell in love with Verona and I will be back!

West Chiltington Theatre Club

New Vision for Helping Families

The club hosts talks on many aspects of the Arts and other subjects which take place on the second Tuesday of each month at the West Chiltington Village Hall at 2.30pm. Every month (except August) they visit a theatre to see a carefully selected production. These outings are always very popular avoiding car travel and parking problems. On Tuesday 11th October at our monthly meeting we welcome a return vosit by Ian Gledhill speaking on “The Bat and the Widow” stories and songs from two of the most famous Viennese Operettas by Johann Strauss and Franz Lehar.

Two days later the club is going to Chichester Festival Theatre to see “Much Ado About Nothing” a production set in the brittle period just after the end of World War 1. The coach leaves the Village Hall Car park at 1pm. Tickets will be dispensed on the coach.

Membership of this thriving club includes a monthly newsletter sent by Email or post, a trip to a local theatre each month (except August); well attended monthly meetings where a speaker (such as Mr Gledhill ) gives insight into the world of the theatre and arts. Further details can be had from Hon. Sec Geoff Adams on 10798 812984.

An ‘ambitious’ new vision of how children and families are supported in West Sussex has been backed by councillors. The vision is to create an environment where a number of the County Council’s Children’s Services work together to simplify the care available. Families would have access to support from a whole range of services such as Early Childhood, Think Family, Young People’s Services, Young Carers and Worth Services - domestic violence support service. The redesign of early support services for children and families could see one of the biggest changes to this area of council work for decades with services embedded at the heart of local communities. If a decision is made to proceed under the current timescale, the improvements could begin to be implemented in April 2017.

“JustDifferent”...

Changing attitudes to disability Walberton based charity provides employment & training for disabled adults. By Lynn Smith Local charity, JustDifferent, has one clear aim – to ensure that disabled children, and their parents, no longer have to struggle to get the education they desperately need and deserve. Just Different was founded in 2008 by Toby Hewson, who has Cerebral Palsy and who strives for the day when disabled people are accepted and celebrated in our society, and are provided with the support, equipment and resources they need to live full, active and independent lives.

When Toby was born, in 1981, it was a while before his parents knew that their newborn child had Cerebral Palsy. However, once they had received Toby’s diagnosis they began extensive research into the condition, driven by a desire to ensure that Toby had the same opportunities and education as a non-disabled child.

However, Toby’s first job, working at a local Citizens Advice Bureau, brought him face to face with the barriers facing someone with his disabilities. Despite the disappointment this caused, Toby’s drive and enthusiasm propelled him forward and he began working for a local organisation on a voluntary basis, which saw him visiting local schools in West Sussex to talk to children about his life. The idea for JustDifferent came to Toby when he realised that he could do more to not only change negative and outdated attitudes to disability but also to provide employment and training opportunities for other disabled adults.

With a passionate interest in the education system, Toby decided to use his years of voluntary experience as a springboard for creating an organisation educating children and young people about disability and difference. When visiting schools, Toby had observed that children and young people responded to his physical difference with imagination and curiosity.

They viewed his wheelchair and speech synthesiser (communicator) with fascination, learning that they are simply tools to assist him with his active life.

With the help of a private Trust, JustDifferent was able to recruit like-minded, disabled adults, who shared Toby’s passion, to change lives by changing attitudes. Over the years since its launch JustDifferent has worked towards achieving this one of its core aims, by providing training and work opportunities for eleven disabled adults, many of whom have moved on to gain other paid employment - thus enabling disabled people to contribute to society in a positive way by giving them the skills, confidence and motivation to aspire and feel included on an equal basis.

The charity works mainly in schools and colleges, and a huge amount of their work is to ensure that JustDifferent’s activity compliments the learning journey of the next generation. This involves working with close partners in schools and with their own disabled presenters to make sure that sessions are appropriate to each key stage and relevant to each curriculum. JustDifferent’s presenters are of a mixed age range and their very different life experiences add interest and different perspectives to the sessions. Each session

is delivered through a PowerPoint presentation and children and young people are encouraged to take part in practical tasks such as using their feet and feeding each other. Reading the comments from

SUSSEX LOCAL teachers and children who have received a visit from a Just Different Presenter, illustrates the success of the charity’s model; with positive comments from headteachers: “Many of our Teachers had not seen a workshop before—it was a really powerful way to change their own perceptions and for our children their views were totally changed” - to children: “I learnt that just because you are different doesn’t mean you can’t do the same things as everyone else, maybe just in a slightly different way.” Year 5 pupil.

Although most of JustDifferent’s activities are delivered in educational establishments, they are also invited to visit community groups such as scouting and Girl Guide clubs, and local Rotary and Lions groups. Their work is also recognised as being equally important to college and university students.

Over the course of eight years, JustDifferent has delivered over 5,600 workshop sessions in over 850 schools, benefitting over 180,000 children and young people.

Just Different’s fundraiser, Karen McLachlan came to the charity with many years experience of working in the charitable sector and after ten years working with a charity that supported visually impaired people across Sussex. Despite her experience Karen says, “When I attended my interview … even as an adult I was very nervous about meeting Toby as I had never met anybody like him before. The fear I felt was soon replaced with thoughts of how inspirational he was and how quickly I felt at ease with him.” Karen believes that it is not only the next generation that need reassurance but that adults too may still feel apprehensive about those with disabilities and differences and that “There are still many attitudes to challenge and change.”

The vast majority of JustDifferent’s income comes from Trusts and Foundations, and Karen says, “… we are very grateful for all the support we have received over the last eight years.” However, she goes onto to say that in order to be able to continue the work the charity must diversify its income streams. “As always

28 Local Charity this is challenging for a small charity. Having recently moved offices (in April this year to the village of Walberton) we are now beginning to see an increase in interest in our work especially in the local community, which in turn helps to raise more funds for our work.”

And in July of this year, Toby was honoured to be asked to open the very first local WalBinFont event.

Curently, Toby Hewson is JustDifferent’s CEO (unsalaried) and there are three part time office staff.

Presenters are paid on a selfemployed basis, which does not impinge on any benefits, for which they might be eligible, and the charity also depends upon the assistance of a handful of volunteers who contribute to the operations of the charity from research to data entry.

Toby and pupil in wheelchair So far, lack of

SUSSEX LOCAL resources and the restraints of operating a small charity have meant that it has not been possible to organise any fundraising events. However, Karen says that “… on the 30th September … we will be holding our very first community event,” and that it was felt the first event should be “something “different” which would celebrate differences’ and so “FootGolf” seemed to be so relevant to our work, playing football and golf in a different way.”

Karen hopes that the FootGolf event will become an annual one, and the charity will be able to build on it “... by raising both awareness and the funds need to continue our life changing work.” The event takes place at the Chichester Golf Club in Hunston and there are still places left. Tickets cost £100 for a team of four players, and include a pizza buffet with a refreshment, tea and coffee on arrival and the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets, with prizes donated by local and national businesses.

Just Different welcomes enquiries, whether to discuss ideas about fundraising or workshop bookings or from anyone interested in volunteering for the charity.

In Your Garden Monthly gardening ideas and tasks by Andrew Staib of Glorious Gardens They will delight you when they push up through the grass and in the 70’s colour scheme of purples, whites and yellows and they are easily mown over once they have wilted away. You could also collect saffron which are the red stamens inside the flower!

Meadow - If you have a meadow section of your garden Fritillaria meleagris is an endangered species in Europe so why not plant these chequerboard patterned beauties amongst your daffodils.

Pots - Now is the time to cram your pots with tulips. Tulips are a living meditation on impermanence as most don’t come back the following year- so a few weeks of display and that’s it. But what a way to awaken colour in your garden. If you have a very sheltered and hot spot try Freesia- their scent will intoxicate you.

Plant in big groups - Don’t be tempted to buy 5 of these and 6 of those. If you want maximum impact buy in bulk online. It is cheaper and the

Nature’s Grenades Now is the Time to plant Bulbs!

Nothing heralds Spring with greater brass band fanfare than bulbs. Just when you thought the world would never again turn to the sunnier side of the universe, out come the bulbs.

Most try to get up and out into the light before the trees have come into leaf so you can make maximum advantage of this by trying to plant bulbs in combination with other ones.

This year why not be a bit bolder in your choice of bulbs and the amount you plant.

Below are some tips on what and where to plant this month.

Woodland - Look around and see if you have any shady areas under trees. Bulbs love this space as it is free from footfall, the trees are not yet into leaf so there is plenty of light and there is a reduced chance of being waterlogged.

Choose natural colonisers like Daffodils, Crocus, English Bluebells, Snowdrops and Grape Miscari.

They will multiply year upon year and make the shady area the great focal point of Spring’s arrival. Also think about large swathes of Anemone blanda as it will spread and be with you forever.

Lawn - It is not fashionable these days but why not plant up a large area of your lawn with Crocuses.

36 Gardening

SUSSEX LOCAL

difference between 20 daffodils and 200 creates a completely different effect. Even in big pots go for 1215 tulips rather than a few. And if you are planting them in borders it is better to have three clumps of 15 than 45 bulbs dotted about the place looking lonely.

through the year as if they are passing the baton to each other. For example you can buy Very Early, Early, Mid and Late flowering Tulips and Daffodils. Also you can factor in the corm families as well with Agapanths, Cannas and Irises as well as Dahlias.

Go for the unusual - Try Frittilaria Crown Imperials, the mad looked Allium ‘Hair’, Narcissi ‘Rip Van Winkle’ or Tulipa ‘Wow’ and again plant in a couple of nice big clumps, maybe on both sides of your doorway so you enjoy them many times a day. You can also try the giant Snowdrop Leucojuim in a quite corner of the garden.

There are also Crinums for the end of summer, bright pink Nerines and Cyclamen hederifolium for Autumn as well as autumn flowering Colchicums with their ghostly translucent hue.

Plant in amongst other plants - You can plant your bulbs in amongst evergreen ground cover which doubles the use of the space and also hides the foliage once the bulbs have finished.

If you are planting in clumps dig a whole section of the bed up of about 40cm in diameter rather than try to plant them individually.

Try planting in amongst an area of Perriwinkle, Ajuga, Violets or even Ivy. Bulb Combinations - Try these combinations: Agapanthas and Wild Garlic, large pale pink Hyacinths with the pale blue of Miscarri Baby’s Breath, Tete-a-Tete Narcissi with Fritillaria.

Also look at the maximum and minimum heights of your borders and position accordingly. eg Allium altissima at 1.5m and Allium Christophii at 35cm Successional planting - Make a column where you make sure you have bulbs coming up all the way

Planting Advice - The packet that the bulbs arrive in will normally tell you the depth and spacing for planting up.

Bulbs as a rule need very well drained soil so if you are in a lot of clay really prepare the soil well with grit and organic improver and even then you will have to experiment to see what survives.

If you have a problem with squirrels you can put some chicken wire over the area you have put the bulbs in or even old upside down hanging baskets.

Taking Care - If you have planted in pots make sure they don’t dry out which is possible if we have a dry Autumn or Winter. Bulbs like a mulch feed whether in pots or in the open ground so this can be done now after you have planted them.

Gardening

through the door If you deadhead the old flowers once they have finished then you will stop the plant having to produce seeds which can weaken it. Most people though like to leave the old seedheads of Alliums to dry out as they look very sculptural over the Summer and Autumn.

Lastly if you leave the foliage to die back naturally then more of the energy of the plant can return to the bulb increasing its health.

Places to visit in October Borde Hill is a magnificent garden near Haywards Heath. It is well known for its Autumn colour display and has 80 ‘champion’ trees’ which are either the tallest or have the largest girth of their kind in England.

You may even get to see the last of the Summer Roses in its large Rose Garden. It is open from 10am to 6pm (or dusk whichever is earliest)

37

What to do in October Move plants - Now is the time to move plants around the garden or plant up new ones. The soil is still warm for the roots to establish but there is less chance of the plants drying out.

Divide most Perennials - including Rhubarb and balance up your garden by taking the one half to a different place.

Plant lettuce and start sowing Chinese winter greens and Spring Cabbage.

Repairing your lawn - can start now with the cooler weather, either using pre grown turfs or seeding into prepared earth. Your lawn treatment can start this month with aerating the garden with a strong fork and raking out moss and thatch.

Cut back shrubs - like Buddlea and Lavatera to about half their height to neaten them up and prevent strong winter winds rocking them about.

The more fundamental pruning happens in Spring

Local Businesses

A money mule is someone who is recruited by those needing to launder money obtained illegally. Students are being recruited unwittingly as ‘mules’ to transfer illegally obtained money between different bank accounts. Criminals advertise fake jobs in newspapers and on the internet in a number of ways, usually offering opportunities to make money quickly. Never give the details of your bank account to anyone you do not trust. No legitimate company will ever ask you to use your own bank account to transfer their money. Don’t accept any job offer that asks you to do this. Don’t be afraid to question the legitimacy of any businesses that make you a job offer, especially if the recruitment procedure strays from the conventional.

Money Laundering is a criminal offence which could lead to a custodial sentence of up to 14 years.

West Sussex businesses are reminded that there is still time to apply for capital grants worth between £15,000 and £100,000.
