Bramham Parish Council www.thisisbramham.co.uk
.The first full remote Parish Council was held in May. Technical issues notwithstanding, it was good to meet to discuss Parish issues. This meeting also saw the new councillors Richard Bramma, Robin Lewis and Marie Lynch in attendance following the cooption process. Val Whitbread has resigned; she has contributed greatly to the village whilst on the Parish Council. Whilst being Chair of the Council, her achievements include overseeing the Neighbourhood Plan, ensuring that the Pavilion became an important asset to the village, safeguarding the playing field and initiating the work on the Senior Citizens’ Centre. Throughout the years many volunteers have worked with her on behalf of the Community of Bramham. June Halliday is another long serving Councillor who has worked hard for residents, latterly in organising the Leeds Festival Ticket allocation. We are very pleased that although she has now left the council, she will continue this role under the umbrella of the Community Fund. Keith Innocent has also decided to step down from the Council; so there have indeed been considerable changes. The main business of the meeting was largely retrospective, catching up with emergency resolutions which had happened during April including the authorisation of the way in which the Parish Council operates.

Continued from page 9... The Senior Citizen Centre has passed the pre planning stage with flying colours and now looks to the final approval. Work on refurbishing the area around the War Memorial will start as soon as possible. Bramham House development has been agreed and work has already started on Farfield House. The main business of the Parish Council is to ensure that it operates efficiently and legally in the best interest of all residents, so the next few months of relative lack of activity will see the Council interrogate it’s own systems to make sure that this is happening as well as possible, and put into place measures to address any issues including our IT resilience, something which has become very needful for us all in these changing times. Since March all our lives have been impacted by the Virus. In this village we have seen many and continued acts of kindness and consideration. As a village we have supported each other as neighbours and also helped our wider community for example with Food Bank Donations and making Protective Equipment. As we come to terms with the knowledge that this crisis is more longer term, this community based approach is one I hope will continue to thrive. The economic impact of this Virus will be felt in Bramham too, with pavilion income obliterated by a lack of communal and fundraising events. However, we are a fortunate village which has always benefitted greatly from the involvement of volunteers to support communal endeavours. I have no doubt this will happen again. I believe this approach is what makes Bramham village the best place to live in, whatever the challenging circumstances we face. Linda Richards Chair of the Bramham Parish Council

THE CHURCHYARD PROJECT A couple of years ago we discussed a new Data base for the Churchyard, a good map/plan of the old graves in the churchyard which would record the many names of those mentioned on grave stones. This scheme has not been forgotten but lack of time and helpers put this idea on the back burner. We hope to begin again and if you are interested in the history of our churchyard do get in touch with Neil Ferres 845274

THE CLERGY LETTER BE ALERT - some tips from St Paul The one thing Christians have always been told to be alert about is prayer. St Paul writes towards the end of his letter to the church in Colossae that they are to devote themselves to prayer and be alert in prayer, and with an attitude of thanks-giving. In a time of trouble and uncertainty for them, they're to see the positives and give thanks for those, whilst also recognizing what isn't good, holy and true in the world and bringing it to God in prayer. Paul wasn't saying that if bad things happened to these Christians it was because they hadn't been alert enough in their prayers! Rather, he was encouraging a thankful attitude of mind, oriented towards God and God's ways, and to make prayer a habit. This kind of prayerful alertness is worth pursuing in our own times, too. Being alert in prayer means seeing the world through the lens of faith - that is, to actively seek a perspective of the world informed by God's way of looking at things. So here is a way of being alert in prayer at the moment. Try praying through this ALERT prayer list, and then think what you might need to do yourself to be part of the answer to that prayer. A - Ally yourself with the outsider, the unpopular, the downtrodden, the poor, the weak, the forgotten and the politically disreputable. Who can you speak up for? Whose voice can you use your privilege to amplify? Whose rights can you defend? L - Love everyone without filtering certain people or kinds of people out: we need to learn to see the image of God in every human, and indeed in the wonder of the world around us. Who do you find it difficult to love? Have you prayed for them?

Clergy Letter for June cont... E - Encourage others. Who can you give thanks for in prayer? Have you told them why you think they're a cause for celebration? R - Repentance means turning away from harmful ways of living and turning to God. It involves a change of heart and direction. What harmful ways of thinking about yourself and others do you need to change? Offer these to God in prayer, say sorry, and pray "Create in my a clean heart, O Lord, and renew a right spirit within me." T - Trust God. No matter what the situation, God is with us. That is not to say that everything will be OK, that we can take silly risks, imagining we are somehow immune to harm. God's own Son ended up nailed to a cross, remember? But Easter reminds us of our hope in Christ: we can trust God, no matter how bleak things are. What do you need to trust God about? What do you want God's reassurance about? So be ALERT in prayer this June. We're all having to get used to new habits this year, and this might be another worth adding to help get a better perspective on the community around us.

MARTIN HOUSE THE HOSPICE FOR CHILDREN IN BOSTON SPA
The Hospice was founded by the Revd Richard Seed, formerly Vicar at St Mary’s Boston Spa, and the Hospice was opened in 1987 by The Duchess of Kent The charity provides hospice care for children and young people across West, North and East Yorkshire. It provides family led care to children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening illnesses, either at the hospice or in families’ own homes. It costs Martin House in excess of £9 million each year to provide its services across the region. The majority of this amount is raised through voluntary donations, fundraising and gifts in Wills. Currently, one quarter of the income is from legacies. Congratulations to Liam Hemzell for his amazing fund raising for Martin House. Remember that there is a retail outlet in the High Street in Boston Spa where they will be happy to take unwanted good quality clothing etc., when the shop re opens after Lockdown.

COMMUNITY SINGALONG Once the present restrictions are over we intend to start again with SING BRAMHAM and if the V E Day Celebrations are planned for a later date then we will enjoy providing the Sing along to go with the special event. If you enjoy singing why not come along and join us, we sing for fun and the World War II songs are perfect for this. Prior to the Covid-19 we had made a start—songs sheets had been prepared and all we needed was some rehearsal time. Do come along and join us when we start again. Sopranos, Tenors and Bass voices will be particularly welcome. Lynne Marshall 844767
Ladies of the Benefice – a word from Revd TrishWatching the course of the COVID 19 virus I am worried. As you can well imagine Revd Trish and Wydale Hall would not want any of you to come to harm. It would seem to make sense to postpone our retreat. Ahhhh! I have not cancelled it, but in light of all the uncertainty I think it would be best to put it back to the end of September or the beginning of October. I have not booked a date yet but wait a few weeks to see the lie of the land. I will give you all plenty of notice when I book the new dates.

THE CARE OF THE CHURCHYARD BRAMHAM Churchyard is looking quite wonderful at the moment and many people are helping to keep the grass mown. Special thanks to Marc and Sam Mottershead. We have removed the dustbins from near to the church porch as people were putting in broken glass, this nearly caused a major accident the other day. PLEASE DO NOT PUT broken glass and crocks etc in the dustbin. Take it home with you. The big builders sacks are for grass clippings and proper flowers only as the contents are then composted by the farmer. DO NOT PUT IN WREATHS, OASIS, WIRE, florists paper, plastic etc., Please take this rubbish home and place in your own dustbins. Thank you.

PLEASE TAKE YOUR RUBBISH HOME! 28
LEEDS FESTIVAL Residents will now be aware that Festival Republic has taken the decision not to stage the Leeds Festival this year. Whilst this is a disappointment, it probably did not come as much of a surprise. The situation is that those people who have arranged to receive Residents’ Tickets for this year’s event will be able to carry them over to next year, and this will be the default outcome. In certain cases, it will be possible for a refund of the donations made to the Bramham Community Fund. However, it is not going to be practical for anything to be arranged whilst the Coronavirus pandemic prevails. Residents can rest assured that the Community Fund has not spent or committed any of this year’s funds, nor will it do so until after the 2021 Festival has taken place. Further developments and up to date information on the situation will initially be posted on our new group Facebook page – “Bramham Festival Residents Tickets”. Simply answer the questions and agree terms to be a member of the group. Alternatively you can email your enquiries to bramhamresidentstickets@gmail.com. Please remember that June and Kate who organise this process for the benefit of the community are volunteers, and are not in a position to handle large numbers of queries on an individual basis, so you may need to wait for a response. Your patience will be appreciated. One change which has also taken place is that Festival Republic has decided that the whole ticket process should now be undertaken by the Community Fund. However, residents should see little change as the same people will continue to manage the ticket process.

William of York
8th June 1154
A victim of injustice Have you ever been the victim of someone else’s malice and ambition? Then William of York (d 1154) is the saint for you. William Fitzherbert was born into a noble family, with royal connections. He was also smart – appointed treasurer of York at a young age, and also as a chaplain to King Stephen. But none of it went to his head – he was loved for his kind, amiable and easy-going personality. Then in 1140 Thurston, the archbishop of York, died. The canons of York knew whom they wanted, and with royal support William was made Thurston’s successor. Yet all was not well: a disappointed minority hated him and had the support of powerful men. William was accused of simony, and of being unchaste. The row brought in the Pope and several bishops, and William was cleared. Yet still – all was not well. That Pope died, and the new Pope was a Cistercian, who preferred the enemies of William. And so he was deposed. Yet William seems to have taken all this malice and power-grabbing in his stride. He simply retired to Winchester to live as a devout monk until 1153. Then that year several of his key enemies died, and he was restored as archbishop to York. At last all looked good for him – and he made a triumphant return to York in 1154. But then – disaster struck again: a few days later William was dead – poison was strongly suspected. He was buried in his cathedral, miracles were reported at his tomb. He was regarded as both the victim of grave injustice and as a saint. In 1421 the famous St William window was made; depicting his life and miracles and death in 62 scenes.
The stone coffin of William is in the western crypt of York Minster. The stained glass window is in the South Transept— the first window in the East Aisle.

. BRAMHAM IN BLOOM
Today 11th May, there is a chill in the wind but prior to this we have enjoyed lots of lovely weather. Folly Allotment are looking their best for the time of year. Plot Holders have been very busy most probably due to the weather and that we have been able to spend more time out gardening. Around the village the flower displays and gardens are a credit to all residents. Thank you. However everywhere could benefit from some rain. The allotments are showing the results of very much hard work. Beans, potatoes, peas, sweetcorn, brassicas and onions seem to be growing well and the community seems to be flourishing bearing in mind the social distancing!! Please can Bramham in Bloom volunteers empty their flower beds and use the plants for their own garden if desirable. Also keep the tulip bulbs for next year or plant them at home. As I said last month there will not be any new plants until the Autumn because of garden centre closures. Usually we have planted summer bedding in April. Let’s see if we can please keep the village tidy as we can despite the lockdown and weather conditions. I hope the situation changes by the autumn, if not I know all of us will make the best of what we have. Many thanks for your work during the year so far and continue taking care of ourselves and others. Lynne Marshall
