Royal visitor is champion of industry

Charles chats to workers during tour By Eleanor Barlow

THE Prince of Wales showed his support for Welsh industries on a visit to Wrexham this week.

Prince Charles looked around the Sharp Manufacturing Company in Llay on Monday before visiting RAF Valley in Anglesey and Froncysyllte, the Calor Gas Village of the Year winner. Bill Thomas, general manager of Sharp’s Quality and Environment Centre, said: “The visit has been creating a buzz in the factory for the last two or three weeks and everybody has been excited about it. “It is a great honour to have him here.” Prince Charles first got in touch with the firm in October when he sent a letter of congratulations when it won the Wales Business and Sustainability Award. He was given a tour of the factory and met staff before joining a meeting organised by Business in the Community,

ROYAL VISIT: Prince Charles is greeted by staff at Sharp Manufacturing in Llay. where delegates from ScottishPower, Cadbury, Barclays and the Principality Building Society were present. Supervisor Jim Taylor, of Pentre Broughton, has worked at the factory for 21 years and had the chance to speak to the prince while on his factory tour. He said: “Prince Charles asked about my job, what we do here and whether I

own a Sharp oven. “He was lovely and I didn’t expect that he would speak to me – it was a nice surprise.” After a look around the microwave oven manufacturing section, the prince was taken to the part of the factory where solar modules are made. Mr Thomas said: “The prince has an

VH020309sharp-02

interest in how solar panels can be used in buildings, particularly old properties such as stately homes, and we were keen to show him the work we do here with solar panels.” As a memento of his visit Prince Charles was given a Welsh vase and a Sharp obelisk which uses solar power to tell the time.

Poverty plea to avoid jail A MAN avoided a 15-month prison term when a judge accepted the reason he had not paid a £27,000 confiscation order under The Proceeds of Crime Act was due to the slump in the housing market. Kevin Morris, 38, now living in Bodlyn, Acrefair, was convicted in September 2006 of 11 charges of selling counterfeit CDs and received a community order. But a financial investigation showed he had benefited from a criminal lifestyle to the tune of £65,000. The available assets were said to be £27,000 – the equity in his then home in Brandy Brook, Johnstown. It was to be paid within six months, it had not been paid, and prosecutor Simon Mills claimed he had been guilty of wilful refusal or culpable neglect and should be jailed for 15 months. Morris had stopped paying his mortgage, the house was repossessed and sold for £111,000, but there had been delays in providing information and if it had been sold earlier at its original valuation of £150,000 the order could have been met, he said. Lisa Judge, defending, said that within four weeks of the confiscation order being made Morris had marketed the property but there had been no-one to view and it had not been sold. It had then been repossessed, sold off by the mortgage company, and Morris still owed £28,000 on the mortgage and £27,000 under the court proceedings. Items worth £30,000 had been seized during the original arrest and had been confiscated. The order could not be met because the housing slump meant there was no equity left. Morris said he had been struggling financially and things were made worse when his partner left him, leaving him in debt. He had not deliberately stopped paying the mortgage. The judge made a new confiscation order of a nominal £1, which he said had to be paid with seven days.

Former students create new coat of arms TWO Wrexham signmakers put the finishing touches on a new coat of arms for the town’s university more than 20 years after learning their trade in its main building. Paul Jones and Simon Lamb, both directors at Excel Signs, completed a City and Guilds course in sign writing when Glyndwr University

was the North East Wales Institute of Higher Education (NEWI). Now their company, based at Bersham Enterprise Centre, Rhostyllen, has manufactured the coat of arms plaques which sit proudly on three of the university’s most striking buildings – the clock tower and front entrance of its Plas Coch site,

and the North Wales School of Art and Design building in Regent Street. A five-strong team from Excel Signs worked on the project for four weeks. Paul, one of three directors at the firm along with Simon and Sam Rees, said: “It’s been brilliant work-

ing on the coat of arms. All of the team at Excel Signs are local lads so we’re really pleased to have been able to be part of such an important chapter in the town’s university.” Each of the plaques – which range from 1m wide on the main building to 5.5m on the clock tower – were manufactured using 3D effects.

Historic moment for Glyndwr University

WREXHAM was awash with caps and gowns at the weekend when the town’s university formally celebrated its newly acquired status.

More than 100 academics and dignitaries with links to Glyndwr University, as well as staff and members of the Students’ Guild, processed through the town centre on Saturday to mark the inauguration of the university and installation of the chancellor, the Rt Hon The Lord Barry Jones PC, and the vice chancellor, Professor Michael Scott. Prof Scott said: “The installation of a chancellor is a traditional ceremony performed by universities all over the world and marks the final step for us on the road to becoming a university. “The ceremony was a celebration of the establishment of Glyndwr University, a university for the people of Wrexham – the university which they’ve been waiting for 120 years.” The procession started at 11.30am from St Mary’s Cathedral Church of Our Lady of Sorrows, led by the Band of the Mercian Regiment and arrived at the

BIG DAY: The inauguration of Glyndwr University at the Parish Church of St Giles. VH280209glyndwr-06

Parish Church of St Giles at 11.50am. During the ceremony the university was presented with its new coat of arms, before the congregation listened to readings from guest speakers, along with music performed by the St Asaph

Cathedral Choir and Wrexham Brass Glyndwr, baritone Jeremy Huw Williams and organist Mervyn Cousins. Award-winning composer Owain LLwyd was commissioned to write four Glyndwr brass band fanfares ahead of

the ceremony. The pieces – named Awakening, Progression, Unity and Vision – reflect on Owain Glyndwr’s dream for Wales as a nation, governing itself with its own institutions and universities.

Student backs Yale College FORMER Yale College student Lewys Jones, who is studying at Oxford University, has recommended Wrexham students to his college dons. Keen to forge links with practising teachers, Oxford University invited Yale’s Dilys Greenough and Nora Richardson to attend the Hirsch Lecture and Teacher Convention. The event was attended by 40 teachers and involved trialling practical investigations, demonstrations and talks by researchers. Lewys will be visiting Yale College in April to talk about his experiences of Oxford University and the opportunities available.

Battle site marked with plaque A COMMEMORATIVE plaque marking the site where Owain Gwynedd led his Welsh Army to victory over Henry II and his forces in the Battle of Crogen in 1165 was unveiled yesterday. The plaque, at Castle Mill Bridge in Glyn Ceiriog, near Chirk Castle, was unveiled by Wrexham County Borough Council leader Cllr Aled Roberts. Amateur historians Deryn Poppitt and Mark

Williams have been researching the project and the unveiling ceremony is the climax of their work. With help from Cadbury, which has a factory in Chirk, Northern Marches Cymru will be able to contribute to this Community Heritage project, through support from the Rural Development Plan for Wales. Karen Harris, community heritage officer with Northern Marches

Cymru, said: “We have recently been speaking to Guy Myddleton of Chirk Castle who has very kindly agreed to allow land to be used for further interpretation of the site. “This will give people a vision of the battle that took place and stress not just the importance of local history but will help give Wrexham a true sense of place within the wider context of the history of Wales.”

Arsonists destroy Celtic reconstruction ARSONISTS are believed to be responsible for a fire which wrecked Wrexham’s Celtic roundhouse.

The educational facility, used by young people from across North Wales, was burnt to the ground on Saturday evening. It is believed the roundhouse, painstakingly constructed using traditional thatching methods over many months, was the subject of an arson attack. The new building had only been in operation for only six months, after being officially opened by Ieuan Wyn Jones AM, Deputy First Minister and National Assembly minister for economic development and transport, on September 2. It is believed the incident took place at about 8pm. North Wales Police and North Wales Fire and Rescue Service were called to the site at about 8.30pm and put out the blaze. It is not known who was responsible. The roundhouse was being used

by Groundwork as the focal point for a popular day-long course on Celtic heritage and culture to school groups from across North Wales. In the past year more than 50 schools and 1,800 children have attended the Celtic Experience Course. John Troth, chairman of the board of trustees of Groundwork, said: “I am extremely saddened this has happened. The roundhouse was a first-class educational venue supported by schools, volunteers and community groups and it has literally gone up in smoke. “What does it say about the health of our society that individuals can act in such a mindless fashion, destroying a facility which was there to encourage our young people and engage them with our unique heritage?” ■ Witnesses should call North Wales Police on 0845 6071001 (Welsh line) or 1002 (English line).

THE Plas Madoc Household Recycling Centre will close for six months on Tuesday, March 31, and reopen at the end of September. The closure will allow extensive refurbishment and modernisation of the site, which will see new and improved facilities. Wrexham County Borough Council says the current site is too small to serve the needs of the surrounding communities, and improvements will also help to increase recycling targets in the borough. The benefits of the new facilities will be: ■ Increased recycling facilities, including skips. ■ Segregation of HGV and private cars. ■ The site will no longer need to be closed when skips are being emptied. While the site is closed residents are advised to use the household recycling site at Bryn Lane, Wrexham Industrial Estate, or the newly refurbished Brymbo Recycling Centre, which opens on April 1. Lead member for the environment

IMPROVED FACILITIES: An artist’s Impression of the new facility in Plas Madoc. and transport Cllr David Bithell said: “The improvement of recycling facilities throughout the county borough is drawing to a close and the refurbishment of this site brings to an end residents having to use a dated facility that is not in keeping with the needs of the 21st Century. “While there will be some inconvenience while the facility remains

closed, the new Plas Madoc Recycling Centre will provide more skips to allow increased recycling while avoiding the temporary closure of the site every time the skips need emptying.” Residents are asked to maximise the use of the weekly household recycling. The Plas Madoc centre is run by Waste Recycling Group on behalf of Wrexham County Borough Council.

The Welsh average for 2007/08 was 93.3%. Cllr Arfon Jones, lead member for children (additional learning, families and support),

said: “These latest figures show we are making fantastic progress in improving attendance in schools. To come joint top is a tribute to the collaborative work between local primary schools and the authority. “We will continue to work hard and improve attendance in our primary schools.” Wrexham County Borough Council has implemented a number of strategies aimed at improving attendance, including electronic registration and an education social worker.

HOSPITALS in North Wales are to receive more than £5m for minor buildings improvements and to replace or buy new equipment, Health Minister Edwina Hart has announced. The funding forms part of a £20.7m investment in hospitals across Wales. The investment includes more ear, nose and throat equipment and replacement ultrasound equipment and incubators, and a transport incubator at Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor. More equipment used as an alternative treatment to a heart bypass, often referred to as balloon angioplasty, will be installed at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, Bodelwyddan and Wrexham Maelor Hospital. Infusions pumps will also be installed at Wrexham and Glan Clwyd to deliver intravenous fluids and medicine to patients. This is on top of almost £19m Assembly Government funding to modernise the electrical infrastructure at Ysbyty Gwynedd. Ms Hart said: “The NHS across Wales has seen significant investment in new buildings and equipment in recent years to help improve care for patients and the working environment for staff. “The allocation of more than £20m will help the NHS deliver better services for patients.”

Village receives the royal seal of approval THE Prince of Wales visited a village near Wrexham to officially declare it the best in Wales. Prince Charles unveiled the Calor Village of the Year plaque in Froncysyllte on Monday in front of hundreds of members of the community. His visit came at the end of a day trip to North Wales which included a visit to RAF Valley in Anglesey and the Sharp factory, Llay. In Froncysyllte the bunting and flags were flying as the prince was driven along the A5 into the village, where residents lined the streets, waving flags and sporting daffodils. He spent nearly two hours touring the village, getting a taste of traditional Wales with songs from the male voice choir, in a chapel, a swift half in the local pub and a piece of bara brith in the community centre. The bara brith came from Cakes and Company, the community enterprise which helped to clinch victory in the competition. Beginning as a shortterm project two years ago to raise funds for the community centre, the sale of cakes and light refreshments, coupled with the social drop-in, was so popular it was made a permanent business. Julie Williams, Calor Village of the Year organiser, said: “I think it’s an honour for the village, but I think it also recognises the hard work and commitment of the volunteers of the Cake and Company community cafe because without them we wouldn’t have entered Village of the Year and it’s through their efforts the community groups thrived, and we are encouraging more and more people to get involved with things in the village.”

Firm among nation’s best

AFONWEN

CRAFT & ANTIQUES CENTRE

FAMILY ACHIEVEMENT: Ed Reeves and Rachel Clacher of Moneypenny with personal assistant Lynn King. WREXHAM firm Moneypenny, owned by brother and sister Rachel Clacher and Ed Reeves, has been named one of the best companies to work for in Britain. The outsourced reception and telephone answering service was listed one of The Sunday Times 100 Best Companies to Work For. More than 500 companies entered the awards and Moneypenny, coming in at 89th, is one of only a few to be listed in their first year of entering. The 100 Best Companies is widely accepted to be the most credible business

awards. It involves employees completing a survey to rate the company’s different parts including leadership, teamwork, work/life balance, pay and benefits, training and career development and social responsibility. The survey is put through a rigorous scoring method and benchmarked against other organisations. Rachel said: “This indicates the strong bond our staff have with each other and the positive atmosphere this creates. I’m so proud of the team for their continued hard work and commitment. It’s entirely thanks to them we have such a positive working atmosphere.”

Man, 22, admits hammer attack A MAN changed his plea and admitted a hammer attack which caused serious head injuries to the victim. Neil Bagnall, 22, was due to go on trial shortly on a charge of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm. But at Mold Crown Court Bagnall changed his plea to guilty. Bagnall, of Gwenfro, Caia Park admits he attacked Kevin John Phillips , 42, during an incident in Chapel Road, New Broughton, in the early hours of Sunday, October 18. Mr Phillips suffered serious head injuries, including a frac-

tured eye socket and a fractured skull. He also had two broken bones in his hand and underwent surgery for seven hours at Walton Hospital in Liverpool. Judge John Rogers QC further remanded Bagnall in custody to appear for sentence this month. The number of blows with the hammer has not been established but in a basis of plea Bagnall admitted a number of blows. There was a dispute about whether Bagnall had the hammer with him or whether Mr Phillips had the hammer and Bagnall disarmed him.

But the judge said that would not make a great deal of difference to sentence. “It was what was done by the defendant with the hammer,” he said. “Quite clearly there were repeat blows.” Prosecutor Simon Rogers said he would secure up to date medical reports on the victim by the next hearing. The judge said that in the circumstances Bagnall would receive the fullest credit for his guilty plea, but custody was almost inevitable.

Fairtrade town praised

Cafe helpers sought

WREXHAM’S commitment to Fairtrade has been praised by a National Assembly Government minister. The town’s AM, Lesley Griffiths, raised Wrexham’s commitment to the principle of Fairtrade during a Senedd debate to mark Fairtrade Fortnight. In July 2003 Wrexham became the first Fairtrade county borough in Wales. The minister for the environment, sustainability and housing, Jane Davidson, said: “Like you, I commend all volunteers who have given their time and effort over the years to bring Fairtrade to the mainstream.”

WALES Air Ambulance is urgently appealing to residents in the area to help make a lifesaving difference by becoming volunteers in the charity’s cafe at Wrexham Magistrates Court, Bodhyfryd. The charity is looking for anyone who can donate time to the emergency service and provide a helping hand on weekdays between 9am and 3pm, particularly during the busy lunch period. Some catering experience is preferable, but not essential. Volunteers will be provided with training and gain a qualification in food hygiene. Call Dixie McNeil on 0844 85 84 999.

HUGHES theVIEWS THE number of firearms operations conducted by police in England and Wales rose by almost a fifth last year. Home Office figures show there were 21,181 authorised operations in the year to March 31, a rise of 17.5%. Officers fired weapons seven times – up from three the year before. And while we have to accept the Metropolitan Police had by far the greatest number of operations, 4,948, in which firearms were authorised, it’s clear we have to accept that officers are increasingly armed as they go about their duties. Perhaps we must look even harder at how and why guns find their way onto our streets and into the hands of gangs and criminals. It’s a fact Britain has some of the toughest gun laws in the world and has done a great deal to choke off the supply of illegal firearms. But is seems as long as there is a demand there will always be someone willing to find a way to get guns into the country. A ban on handguns was introduced after Thomas Hamilton murdered 16 children and their teacher at Dunblane in 1996. There is little doubt the vast majority of handguns that were legally held before Dunblane have been handed in over the past decade. One of the biggest problems appears to be replica guns, which are smuggled into the UK and are then converted. It’s vital those brought before the courts for importing real or imitation firearms, whether they can be converted or not, are dealt with robustly and are handed long jail terms. Let’s get all real and imitation guns off the streets of London, Manchester, Wrexham or anywhere else.

Government pair asleep on job IT WILL be interesting to see whether local Labour MPs deal with the banking crisis in their Views from Westminster. Whether they do or not there are some key issues from this week at Westminster which go to the utter incompetence of this Labour Government. In relation to Sir Fred Goodwin’s pension, whilst Alistair Darling said he wasn’t told about Goodwin’s obscene pension pay-off until last week, it now appears his city minister allegedly knew last autumn. We urgently need clarification about who in Government knew what and when. If Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling allowed ‘Fred the Shred’ to walk off with £693,000 a year, for life, of taxpayers’ money, it would

Can you help guide dogs?

GUIDE Dogs is seeking local volunteers to become counter-top collection box co-ordinators, supporting the charity’s Every Penny Counts campaign. The aim of the campaign is to raise £1m over the next three years, with collection boxes appearing in 40,000 new locations across the UK. Volunteers distribute and empty the boxes, and deposit donated money. Full training and support to undertake the role is offered and any agreed expenses incurred will be reimbursed. If readers think they can spare an hour a week to help, we would love to hear from them. We also need help finding new counter-top locations – perhaps readers know a shop, newsagent, petrol station or other public premises that might be happy to support Guide Dogs by giving one of our collection boxes a home? Every penny collected helps make a life-changing difference to blind and partially sighted people. If you can help find a location or would like to vo-

be a disgrace. Either way, the Government is on the hook – it either knew about it and did nothing, or it didn’t and failed to ask the right questions. Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling are supposed to be looking after taxpayers’ money. They’re supposed to be looking after the interests of the British people and they were asleep on the job. As for the RBS insurance scheme/bank bailout mark II, given the failure of the first Labour bailout a second one was inevitable. But let us be clear that the billions lost on the first bailout, the billions of pounds extra committed by the Government and the potentially massive costs in the future are the bill for Labour’s decade of irresponsibility.

Fostering plea

WHEN I was a child my parents sent me to live with strangers. Such arrangements are known as private fostering. According to a recent survey commissioned by the British Association for Adoption and Fostering, as many as one in 10 of 18- to 24-year-olds may have been privately fostered at some point in their lives. If you are caring for someone else’s child for more than 28 days then you must notify your local council. Failure to do so is a criminal offence. The council can give you helpful advice but, most importantly, we can ensure children are safe. For details of your local private fostering team, visit www.somebodyelsescchild. org.uk. KRISS AKABUSI C/O British Association for Adoption and Fostering

We will see whether, unlike the first bailout, the promises on the lending and bonuses are worth the paper they are written on. Finally, we had the Lloyds-HBOS losses, which are staggering figures. They beg the question: what on earth was the Government doing, and what were the regulators doing, when HBOS was pursuing such a dangerous business strategy? The Government promised a rescue package on Friday, February 28, but didn’t produce it, leaving Lloyds shares in turmoil and further damaging confidence. ERIC OWEN WYNNSTAY LANE, MARFORD, WREXHAM

University central to success IT IS not every day a town acquires a university. The establishment of Wrexham’s university last weekend was historic. It is also the start of a necessary journey for Wrexham county borough’s biggest town. In a competitive global economy, a university is central to success. It promotes learning, innovation and aspiration. For Wrexham, education has, in the past, been one of the areas where we needed to improve. The presence of Glyndwr University in Wrexham can be part of that improvement. For me, university was the key step in my personal progress. My parents, who both left school in the 1930s at 14, were determined I should go to university. There was no question of me leaving school at 16 or 18. I do not recall it ever being dis-

cussed. One of my proudest days was when I secured the necessary grades to go. Far more people go to university now than in 1979. But there are still too many of us who think that university is something that is for other people and is not something to which they can aspire. This is nonsense but is often borne of a culture of limited ambition. Though some families support aspiration, some do

not. Though many schools support aspiration, some do not. A university at the heart of a town can be accessible, not just geographically, but in its spirit. It can overcome the inhibitions of those who are intimidated by the idea of university. Much work has been carried out to win Wrexham its University and, on behalf of the town, I want to thank those who have done the work. That effort has, I believe, all been worthwhile. NEWI had a proud record of offering higher education to those who had not always prospered in schooldays and we all want that tradition to continue – combined with a university’s ambition to reach still higher. It will be a central part of Wrexham’s future as the cultural and economic centre of North Wales.

Weathering the financial storm

WREXHAM has generated more new businesses this year, according to new research from UHY Hacker Young, the Wrexham accountancy group. It created new businesses at a rate of 10 per 10,000 resident adults, an increase from the previous year, when the figure was nine new businesses per 10,000 residents. Wrexham is now 16th in the league table of top 50 towns and cities, ranked by their ability to generate new businesses. Anthony Thomas, partner at UHY Hacker Young, said: “Even as the business environment soured, Wrexham still managed

to keep its rate of new business generation on a fairly even keel. However, these figures only cover the early stages of the credit crunch so we can’t relax yet. Wrexham’s business community, Wrexham Borough County Council and all the other business support groups helping start-ups will have to work harder than ever to maintain this success.” According to UHY Hacker Young, Wrexham’s ability to replace closing businesses with start-ups will determine whether its local economy can continue to weather the economic conditions.

Manufacturing, financial services and property sectors in Wrexham have been hit hard by the credit crunch. He added: “As the downturn escalates, Wrexham’s manufacturing base is suffering and is still at risk of outsourcing to lower cost countries. “Wrexham’s JCB plant is battling poor trading conditions, production has slowed and the plant has just completed a second round of redundancies.” UHY Hacker Young’s research found Aberdeen tops the table with a total of 34 new businesses being set up per 10,000 adults.

Charity fashion finds

FASHION guru Gok Wan knows the hidden treasures that can be found in your local charity shop. He is supporting an urgent appeal from British Heart Foundation (BHF) Shops by encouraging people in Wrexham to donate unwanted fashion items to help fight heart disease, the UK’s biggest killer. Gok said: “Support your local BHF Shop by clearing out your closet. Donating your unwanted goods to the BHF is the perfect way to get great fashion karma. By passing on things you no longer need, you’re offering people the chance to pick up one of your treasures and support the nation's heart charity.”

THE Highways Agency is following its highly successful Driver Information Programme for motorcyclists – Great Roads Great Rides – with a new interactive DVD-ROM. Entitled Great Roads Great Rides 2, it is a new resource to help riders in Wales ‘read the road’ successfully and stay safe while enjoying their biking experience. The package will be distributed at events organised or attended by the Highways Agency and its partners. A downloadable version is available at www.highways.gov.uk/knowledge/ 11526.aspx.

Racist harassment man avoids jail Treats for Welsh Guards A WREXHAM man convicted of racially aggravated harassment towards three Asian youths has been told, for a mature man of 41, he had every reason to be thoroughly ashamed of himself. The judge, Mr Recorder Nic Parry, told Gary Nicholas Lee he had been involved in a disgraceful, prolonged and premeditated episode. Lee, of Herbert Jennings Av-

enue, denied racially aggravated harassment and possessing an extending baton in public in April but was convicted at an earlier hearing. At Mold Crown Court Lee received a nine month prison sentence, suspended for 18 months, and he was also placed on supervision and ordered to pay £750 towards prosecution costs. The judge said he accepted, for sentencing purposes, Lee’s ac-

tions stemmed from concern for his son, but the defendant's reactions had been wholly inappropriate. He had brandished the weapon in public causing fear to the youngsters, and then his temper festered into a second day when he went out again and displayed a loss of control and racial prejudice. It was an aggravating feature the youngsters had to attend court to give evidence.

THANKS: Welsh Guard soldiers with the additional products donated by ASDA which are going to Afghanistan THE Prince of Wales has given his support to ASDA as the retailer’s Wrexham store helped send more than 650 hampers of local Welsh produce and essential supplies for the Welsh Guards and their families. ASDA is the first retailer to support the Welsh Guards and their families with such a donation – the idea of ASDA stores across Wales. Chris Brown, ASDA’s head of ethical and sustainable sourcing, met Prince Charles at Lille Barracks in Aldershot, to present the donation to him. He said: “We asked our Welsh stores how they

would like to celebrate St David’s Day this year and there was overwhelming support for the modern-day Welsh heroes of our communities. “With the support of our local Welsh suppliers and Taylor’s Regional Foods, we have been able to put together 158 hampers of local Welsh produce, which the families received for St David’s Day.” The Welsh Guards were so impressed with ASDA’s support they asked whether 500 batches of essential supplies could be provided for the 500soldier battalion when they tour Afghanistan.

Report says social services improving SOCIAL Services in Wrexham are moving in a positive direction of improving services. That’s according to a recent Welsh Assembly Government Annual Performance Evaluation by the Care and Social Services Inspectorate for 2007/08. The report acknowledges improvements in both children’s and adults’ social services. In children’s services it highlights many of the performance measures showed improving standards in child protection and more assessments were being completed in a timely way. There were also improving results in managing the care of children.

By Kevin Hughes In adult services the report acknowledges the number of older people helped to live at home has steadily improved and as a result the rate of older people in residential accommodation has fallen. Progress in improving the range of services to adults has also been a strength. The report also states Wrexham’s workforce is a strength, with improvements in the recruitment of staff and reduced turnover. The rates of staff holding required or recommended quali-

fications continued to rise and are in the top range of Welsh Authorities. The report also acknowledges that where further improvements were needed, the council was taking action. Cllr Arfon Jones, lead member for Children and Young People, said: “I welcome this report and acknowledge the improvements achieved in carrying out core and initial assessments for children.” Cllr Joan Lowe, lead member for adult social care, said: “We hope to improve the range of services for older people further.”

VAT returns reminder

Jazz music jam night

BUSINESSES should revisit VAT returns between 1973 and 1997 and claim for any VAT they are owed by March 31, 2009, before the window closes for good and the three-year limit on VAT claims comes into force, says UHY Hacker Young, the Wrexham accountancy firm. The three-year limit on these old VAT claims will take effect from April 1, 2009, shutting off any opportunity for businesses to recover VAT from the period 1973 to 1997 which they are currently entitled to. According to UHY Hacker Young, businesses commonly overpay or fail to recover all of the VAT to which they are entitled.

NORTH Wales Jazz society presents the first of its 2009 jam sessions at the Royal British Legion, Llay, on Tuesday.

Redundancy pay Bill MP Martyn Jones has joined a parliamentary petition to increase statutory redundancy pay (SRP). The MP for Clwyd South signed Early Day Motion 669 and pledged his support for Chorley MP Lindsay Hoyle’s statutory redundancy Bill, aimed at helping those who have lost their jobs in the credit crunch. The petition notes SRP hasn’t increased each year in line with inflation and is worth only 56% of average weekly earnings. The proposed legislative changes would increase redundancy pay and attach it to average weekly earnings. Mr Jones said: “I am proud to support an increase in SRP.”

Tina says quit the cigs FORMER Coronation Street star Tina O’Brien has become an ambassador for Smokefree North West’s campaign to get parents-to-be to quit smoking. As a former smoker, Tina managed to quit when she found out she was pregnant with her now fourmonth-old daughter Scarlet. Cigarettes smoked by a pregnant woman restrict the essential oxygen supply to her baby, but quitting will benefit the baby immediately – and the nicotine leaves the body after two days of being smoke-free.

Coffee morning is cup of cheer for hospice A COFFEE morning at The Swan Inn, Pontfadog, helped to swell the coffers of Nightingale House Hospice. Friends, family and the community piled into the pub and restaurant for the Valentine’s Day-themed event, raising £485. The get-together was organised in memory of Mair Davies, who recently died at the Wrexham hospice. Cathy McNeil, licensee of The Swan Inn and a friend of Mair, said: “The pub was packed full to the brim. It was an absolutely brilliant morning and it just shows how much Mair was loved by everybody. “I hope that the money will help to support people just like Mair at the hospice; it is such a fantastic place.” Janet Jones, a family friend, said: “Mair was always keen to fundraise for the hospice, she would be very happy and proud to know that her wish came true.” Helen Roberts, daughter of Mair, said: “I would like to thank all of the staff at the hospice, my friends and family, and everybody who attended the event at The Swan Inn. The support I have received during my mother’s illness and since she passed away has been immense.” Margaret Hollings, community fundraiser at the hospice, said: “This year alone it will cost £2.55m to run the hospice, this equates to £7,000 per day. Only 18% of this comes from statutory Government sources. “The hospice greatly relies on the generosity of the communities it serves.

TOP SAUSAGE: Winning butcher Mark Lewis of Lewis’s Farm Shop with Bryn Williams.

THIS year’s Wrexham Champion Sausage Competition has been won by Lewis’s Farm Shop from Eyton. Its traditional pork sausage beat off competition from butchers across the county. The judging took place during Wrexham’s St David’s Day Celebration weekend and the results were announced by expert sausage judge Dennis Elliott, with prizes being presented by chef Bryn Williams. The winning entrant was Mark Lewis of Lewis’s Farm Shop, who said: “I am delighted to have won the title of Wrexham Champion Sausage 2009. “This is the third Gold Standard award we have won with this type of sausage and I am so glad and proud to have achieved the hat-trick here in Wrexham.” The reserve champion was Huw John Jones Butchers of the Butchers’ Market, with Jones Brothers’ Farm Shop from Stansty third. The other entrants all merited a silver award. The winners now have the opportunity to enter the Supreme Champion of Champions event in London in October. The event was organised by Wrexham County Borough

Cash is yet to be claimed THE hunt is on to track down Premium Bond holders in the Clwyd county area, which covers Wrexham, Flintshire, Denbighshire and Conwy. There are 2,238 unclaimed prizes worth £130,900 and they range from £25-£1,000. They’re usually unclaimed because people don’t pass on new addresses when they move house, they’ve forgotten bonds were bought for them when they were a child or executors are unaware the bonds are held when someone dies. Top five missing winners in Clwyd are holding Premium Bond numbers 9FB589018 for a £1,000 prize, 2FK931611 – £1,000, 2CW438333 – £1,000, 6ES345077 – £1,000 and 20TB125967 – £500. There’s no time limit on claiming. The oldest unclaimed prize dates back to November 1957 for the sum of £25. Prizes are also free of UK income tax and capital gains tax. NS&I Premium Bond manager Sally Swait said: “We urge anyone who believes they could have unclaimed prizes to check with us.” ■ To check for an unclaimed prize, visit www. nsandi.com or write to NS&I Premium Bonds, National Savings and Investments, Blackpool, FY3 9YP.

School joins litter pick

YSGOL Morgan Llywd Year 10 pupils joined Wrexham County Borough Council’s recycling team for a litter pick in the Pont Wen area and along the River Gwenfro. The aim of the event was to educate people that a large amount of litter is actually recyclable. The group collected 13 bags of recyclables which were sent to the council’s recycling bulking up facility on Wrexham Industrial Estate.

HAVING FUN: Sarah Meade of Honeypots, Ruth Jones, George Hughes, David Green and Pavilion marketing officer Samantha Williams. THANKS to a joint venture between the Royal International Pavilion and local traders, spending in Llangollen’s shops could earn you a seat at a comedy night or a concert. The move is aimed at boosting attendances at the Pavilion and helping businesses beat the credit crunch. Every £10 spent in one of the 22 participating shops, hotels and restaurants earns a sticker for a loyalty card. Accumulate six stickers and that adds up to a free ticket for an event at the Pavilion. The scheme was launched at Kill For A Seat, the new monthly stand-up night

at the Pavilion and was given the thumbs up by the audience. Llangollen mayor George Hughes said: “The hope is that the Pavilion has a real future ahead of it. “If we can get the calibre of artists and entertainment here and get the town interested it should be of real benefit and this scheme should help do that. “It is also good to see young people like David Green, who already organises so many events through his Xuberance company, taking a real interest and getting involved for the benefit of Llangollen.” Town trader Ruth Jones, of the Welsh Lovespoons Centre, said: “We are very

Call for youth mayor WREXHAM AM Lesley Griffiths is calling on the county borough council to enable young people in the area to have their own democratically elected youth mayor. The AM is challenging the council to emulate other Welsh boroughs, such as Bridgend and Blaenau Gwent, in facilitating a process which would enable young people in Wrexham to hold elections to elect a youth mayor. A youth mayor would be elected to represent the views of young people and have a direct say in how services for children and young people are delivered in the area. The role would be like an ordinary mayor, but specifically for young people locally.

optimistic about the loyalty card scheme with businesses supporting the Pavilion and vice versa. “It’s an excellent venture and we feel that in Llangollen we have an excellent brand that’s known nationally. “It is just a matter of people locally supporting the scheme and finding out what an excellent quality of shopping we have available here and in turn that will support the Pavilion.” The loyalty cards are available from participating businesses and the Pavilion.

Son’s plea to find his father’s killer A HEARTBROKEN son said his father’s life was stolen from him “for doing nothing more than standing up for what was right”. Now police have been told one of his assailants may be from Wrexham. Alan Corney died three months after he was assaulted in The Parade, Parkgate, Wirral, when he ‘politely challenged’ two men who were shouting and swearing in the street. The two men the police want to question are described as white, aged between 17 and 19. One was wearing a dark hooded top and the other was wearing a light-coloured hooded top. One man was taller than the other. Det Chief Insp Andy Smith said: “One witness has intimated that one of the men may have come from the Wrexham area. I am keeping an open mind on this line of enquiry.” Alan, 67, of Parkgate, was walking home with his wife after an evening out on November 14. They came across two youths who were shouting and swearing in the street Det Chief Insp Smith said: “Alan, being the man that he was, politely challenged them about this. One of the men head-butted him in the face. “At that time it was thought Alan had sustained a minor injury, a fractured cheek bone.” On December 7 Alan collapsed at home. He was operated on for a bleed in his brain and on February 6 he died. His death has been directly linked to the attack. Michael Corney, at Neston Town Hall, spoke on behalf of his family, and said: “My father never regained full consciousness for over two months before he died. We didn’t have the opportunity to say goodbye.” ■ Anyone with information should call detectives on 0845 458 0000.

Back on motoring scene vsehxiwx with

compliance with Euro IV emissions regulations. Braking is powerful and progressive with four-pot calipers on the ventilated front disc brakes and air conditioning as standard – you certainly need it with a lot of heat being generated by the close proximity of the engine to the passenger compartment To keep pace with modern trends, rear parking sensors assist when manoeuvring in tight spaces The five-speed manual gearbox lives up to expectations and used judiciously it can help return a combined mpg figure of 35.8. CO2 emissions amount to 185g/km. Inside there is an all-black finish and seats, incorporating leather seat facings and bolsters are comfortable and supportive.

IF ANY car brand deserves a Brit award for survival then it has to be MG.

This maker of affordable and exciting sports cars and saloons has suffered just about everything yet it is still up and running, now in Chinese ownership. The poor old MG has soldiered on through a plethora of different owners, been pulled, stretched, badged engineered, dropped, picked up again, cut back and marginalised over the years, but it has returned to UK showrooms with an exciting resurgence of its most modern sports car, the mid-engined TF. Now back in production at Longbridge, the TF has driven back on to the motoring scene with a sizzling launch edition, the LE500. Its new owners say that the MG name is more financially secure than it has ever been and I certainly hope so because the TF is intent on accelerating back to attain at least a large degree of the popularity it enjoyed when it was a top-selling small sports car some years ago. I have been driving one for the last few days and this car delivers non-stop smiles. Its mid-engined rear-wheel-

RETURN OF THE MG: Xli XJ lew hvmzir fego sr xs xli qsxsvmrk wgiri {mxl e wm~~pmrk peyrgl ihmxmsr0 xli PI9442 drive layout ensures superb balance and handling qualities that are way over and above what you would expect when handing over £16,000 for a car. There is extremely rewarding feedback and turn-in through challenging bends. And the compliant suspension set-up means that long distance comfort and refinement never compromises sports handling.

The ride is considerably better than the last TF I drove some years ago and it makes for a much better driving experience. Powering the TF is a 1.8 litre multipoint, fuel-injected petrol engine which combines a smooth flow of power with plenty of punch. Its throaty beat is always there just behind the driver’s back, harnessed to a sophisticated engine management system giving full

IT REALLY is time we stopped giving the 4x4 a kicking. A storm of protest has followed a Which? report entitled Time to ditch the 4x4? claiming that “gas-guzzling cars like 4x4s are becoming socially unacceptable – unless you are a farmer”. It went on to name cheaper alternatives to certain brands mentioned. We know that some 4x4s use a lot of fuel and may not be the most carbon friendly , but some people do need them. I wonder how the Which? writer would have felt if he had been with me in a Land Rover Freelander when I had to cope with the fearful snowstorms that swept Britain a couple of weeks ago. I got home easily but the roads were littered with lesser forms of transport, including some cheaper 4x4s that just could not cope. The Association of British Drivers is up in arms about the report, saying cars are often not bought for a single function, but are selected to meet the owner's particular mix of needs. Four-by-fours are particularly popular with caravan owners who require strong, heavy, powerful tow cars that can cope with muddy fields, even though they don't tow a caravan most of the time. The starting point is often how much money the buyer has available for the purpose and a cheaper car will be purchased only if it equally meets the owners various needs. The fact is that the 4x4 does have a useful place in society and if climate change brings us any more winters like the current one, this mode of transport could very well enjoy a rapid revival.

Weston leads from the front in Port success

CELTIC PRIDE: Megan Rogers

DANIEL Weston led Wrexham AC’s charge at the fifth Border League race of the season in Ellesmere Port. Weston past the post in ninth (29.23mins) while Mike Robbins was the fastest M45 in 19th (30.19) as Wrexham’s men’s team came third in Division Two. They were followed by: 68 Adrian Bryan (33.30), 75 Chris Evans (34.02), 79 Tom Csizmadia (34.20), 84 Tim Bent (34.51), 88 Geoff Richards (34.59), 134 Charles Ashley (38.02), 143 Jonathan Davies (38.36), 149 Ian Carson (39.22), 179 Shaun Partington (45.06), 180 Peter Norman (45.16). Alison Whitelaw was Wrexham’s fastest woman home in 10th (37.22) to win the L50 age class.

Athletics Debbie Dodd was 40th (42.58) and Gill Csizmadia 68th (46.25) as the women’s team finished fifth in Division Two. Wrexham’s Emma Parry was the top senior woman in the 2008 North Wales Road Race Rankings for the half marathon (81.34) and the 10k (37.14) as well as third for the five mile (30.49). The marathon does not appear in the rankings, but Catherine Hewitt, who was the 18th-fastest W45 in the London Marathon in 3.16.48hours, and Weston, who was second in the Blackpool Marathon in 2.35.48, would have been up there if they had. Emily Rowlands will join her father Darren at the UK

Inter-Counties Cross Country Championships in Nottingham on Saturday after being added to the North Wales Under 13s girls team. Megan Rogers won the U20s women’s long jump at the Celtic Indoor Cup in Cardiff. And the rising star did it with a personal best leap of 5.40m. Rogers was also third in the 4x200m (1.42.34mins). Tom Cusworth was second in the U20s men’s 4x200m (1.30.14) while Chloe Jones was second in the U16s women’s long jump (5.13m) and third in the 200m B (26.82secs). Rogers was also a winner at the Bath Open Indoor Meeting. She could not be caught in the women’s 60m hurdles in 9.41.

Reds are rocked by injury shocker Wrexham 1 Salisbury City 1

A FRUSTRATING afternoon for the Dragons was compounded on Saturday when talisman Marc Williams was ruled out for the season.

The 17-goal striker was stretchered off just before the hour and Dean Saunders’ worse fears were confirmed when an X-ray proved that Williams had broken his foot. That was the last thing the Racecourse boss needed after seeing his promotion-pushing side gift a Blue Square Premier point to relegation-threatened Salisbury. Ryan Flynn got Wrexham, featuring debutant John Curtis, off to a flying start, but they paid the price for being unable to add to their advantage when Charles Ademeno equalised 17 minutes from time. Saunders said: “We started the game off great, scored a great goal, but then we missed too many chances.” Former Manchester United and Blackburn Rovers star Curtis, in at right-back for Neil Taylor, must have wondered what he had let himself in for as Salisbury were gifted gilt-edged opportunities in the opening minutes. Gavin Ward produced

Rugby union celled out an early penalty through the boot of Kieran Morris. Llangefni regained the lead just before the break with another penalty, but Wrexham, with No 8 Geraint Jones impressing, stormed in front when replacement winger Christian Chalk touched down in the corner.

MEDAL MAGIC: Hope and Wrexham Taekwon-do Club stars.

What a start to 2009

Club are pride of Wales

FENCING: Wrexham Fencing Club starlets helped Wales to a major medal haul at the Junior Commonwealth Fencing Championships in Malaysia. Ben Roberts, as part of the men’s foil team, and Ben Hughes, as part of the men’s epee team, secured bronze. But their performances were bettered by Carolyn Benson and Stephanie Collister, who comprised half the women’s foil team. Having edged nail-biting clashes with Malaysia Pelapis and old-foes England, Wales, with Benson starring, won silver after losing in the final to Scotland. Wales finished overall fourth with England the only other country to win more medals in total. In the individual events, Daniel Lumb and Carolyn finished a superb ninth in the men’s sabre and the women’s foil respectively, Ben Hughes was 15th in the men’s epee, Stephanie 15th in the women’s foil and Ben Roberts, who fought on despite a knee injury, 29th in the men’s foil.

Football

a poor touch from Sam Williamson’s back pass, but the goalkeeper redeemed himself with a double stop. And, having survived that scare, the Dragons broke the deadlock in the fifth minute. Classy Curtis was involved, playing in Williams whose cross was helped on by Jon Brown for Flynn to complete a delightful move. With Andrew Crofts and Andy Fleming running the midfield, Wrexham went close through Flynn and Fleming before Brown missed a sitter on the stroke of half-time as he saw his close-range effort cleared off the line after James Bittner had denied Williams. Brown should have scored and, after Flynn tested Bittner, so should have Mike Williams when the ball broke to him in the box. A sting in the tail was growing likely and it duly arrived in the 73rd minute when slack marking allowed Ademeno to head in. And it would have got worse for the hosts soon after had Ward not saved from Matt Tubbs. But it was the Dragons who had the last chance to win it when Jefferson Louis set up Ashley Westwood, but the captain could only fire over.

ROUNDUp

MARTIAL ARTS: Hope and Wrexham Taekwon-do Club enjoyed big success at their first major competition of 2009. Tracy Fry, Shannon Goodlet, Kelly Fry, Ashleigh Davies, Morgan Davies, Abby Davies, Lauren Goodlet, Frazer Thorne, Rhian Davies, Erin Williams, Anya Davies and Alisha Goodlet all won medals in the individual and team sparring categories at the South Midlands Championships in Hereford. Instructor Julie Price, whose club runs out of the Castell Alun Sports Centre in Hope and the Morgan Llwyd Sports Centre in Wrexham, said: “This is a great start for 2009 and all of the above will soon be competing at the North Wales Championships and preparing for the English Championships in Nottingham.”

Awesome foursome

PAIN GAME: Jefferson Louis comes under the cosh against Salisbury. Inset: Marc Williams suffers his season-ending injury.

Young guns make most of time in spotlight WITH the club’s first team not in action, Wrexham Youth took the chance to shine on Saturday as they won a pulsating top-of-the-table clash at home to Llangefni Youth 22-18. With half-backs Kieran and Jamie Morris combining well to create a series of attacks and centres Danny Sissons and George Cheesbrough softening up the away side’s defence, it was no surprise when the hosts can-

A penalty try, converted by Jamie Morris, extended the Bryn Estyn Road outfit’s advantage only for the Anglesey men to hit back. But Wrexham sealed a win which moved them two points clear at the top of North Wales Youth League Division One with a superb try from hooker David Blackwell, who caught Jamie Morris’ incisive kick and crashed over, with Kieran Morris converting.

Wrexham 2nds returned to winning ways in North Wales League Division Four with a 39-12 home win over Menai Bridge given to them by tries from James Wrathall (3), Dave Morris, Jason Parry, Wayne Roberts and Andrew Clutton and conversions from Jonathan Davies. Wrexham 1sts host Machynlleth in Division Two on Saturday (2.30pm).

GOLF: Den Murphy, Mike Hollings, Cliff Davis and Tom Mara (58.1) were the winners of the Seniors Yellow Ball Competition at Clays Golf Club. Tony Harcombe, Maelor Davies, Andrew Mitchell and Vinnie Simpson (60.9) were second, with special praise going to Mitchell, who, on the par-four 18th hole, drove the green and then putt out for a very nice two. Neil Owen, Alan Rogers and Colin Brand tasted February Medal success. Owen (69-5=64) beat Richard Evans (76-11=65) and S L Warburton (76-11=65) to win Division One, Division Two went to Rogers (79-12=67) from Gareth Parry (84-15=69) and Gareth Roberts (82-12=70), with Brand (85-19=66) edging out Neil Gledhill (89-23=66) and Hazel Bell (89-23=66) to top Division Three.

Capital pain for Nets

BASKETBALL: NEWI Nets were on the end of a EBL Division Two thumping on Saturday. Matt Weedall’s men, ravaged by injury and unavailability, went down fighting 123-77 at home to title-challenging London Mets. Nets, who are in danger of slipping out of the play-off places, have two home games this weekend. They welcome Birmingham Athletics to the Plas Coch Sports Centre at Glyndwr University on Saturday (5pm) and Plymouth Raiders 2nds on Sunday (3.30pm). Tickets cost £2 for adults, £1 for juniors.

BROUGHT TO YOU BY: TRINITY MIRROR NORTH WEST IN CONJUNCTION WITH: DIAMOND HOLIDAYS ABTA W0552

Simon Weatherstone’s acrobatic 30-yard effort, 15 minutes from time, was intended merely to keep the pressure on Dean Saunders’ side. But the ball was carried by the wind and over the head of goalkeeper Gavin Ward to settle a closely-fought encounter played in atrocious conditions. The defeat in their first ever trip to the Broadfield Stadium extended the Dragons’ winless run in all competitions to five games and, on a night when goalscoring chances were at a premium at either end, underlined the urgency of replacing injured hitman Marc Williams. Boss Saunders said: “I thought the wind was a goal start, but we never took advantage. “The actual football we played was nice, but not enough people were on the end of things and not enough people were having efforts at goal, so to lose a game like that is just hard to swallow. “But we have to bounce back from it.” Wrexham, now six points outside the play-off places in sixth, are away again on

Football

Saturday, at mid-table Eastbourne Borough (3pm), before returning to the Racecourse on Tuesday to host relegation-threatened Forest Green Rovers (7.45pm). Saunders is in the market to sign at least one striker after 17-goal Williams was ruled out for the season after breaking his foot in Saturday’s frustrating 1-1 home draw with Salisbury City. The match marked the debut of former Manchester United, Blackburn Rovers and Nottingham Forest defender John Curtis, who is now fully fit after 18 months out with a groin problem. The 30-year-old, who worked under Saunders and his assistant Terry Darracott when they were on Graeme Souness’ coaching staff at Blackburn, said: “This is an opportunity for me to get playing again because I need games and the manager wants to give me a chance. I played most of my football at a high level so I’m hoping I can bring something to Wrexham’s promotion push. “There are a lot of young, energetic and enthusiastic players here, but maybe they lack a bit of guile and craft, which is something I can provide. “The set-up here is as good as a Championship club and if I do well and the club do well, we’ll see what happens.”

Struggling Druids suffer late on NEWI Cefn Druids’ Welsh Premier League survival hopes took another hit on Tuesday night as an injurytime equaliser meant they had to settle for a 1-1 home draw with Port Talbot Town. Desperate for victory after back-to-back defeats to fellow strugglers Caernarfon Town and Porthmadog, the Plaskynaston Lane outfit looked set to end their four-game winless run when Geraint Lewis headed in Kevin Holsgrove’s corner in the

Round-up 49th minute. And that was the way it stayed until the 95th minute when Matthew Rees snatched a point for the mid-table South Walians. Druids are away to Europeanplace-chasing Haverfordwest County on Saturday (2.30pm). ■ Simon Smith’s scored Lex XI’s consolation as they went down to a 4-1

defeat at title-challenging Llangefni Town in the Cymru Alliance on Saturday. Gresford Athletic were victims of a giant-killing as they lost 1-0 at home to Penycae in the third round of the NEWFA Challenge Cup. Third-from-bottom Gresford return to league action on Saturday at basement boys Llandyrnog United while Lex host Holyhead Hotspur in the quarter-finals of the League Cup (both 2pm).
