Community News DANUM PROBUS CLUB Danum Probus Club is an organisation for men who have retired or are semi-retired from their profession, business or other employment who want to maintain a social network with others who have similar interests. Danum Probus Club meets on the first and third Mondays of the month at Town Moor Golf Club, Bawtry Road, Belle Vue, Doncaster starting at 10 am. We welcomed Dick Venables on March 18 whose presentation, “The Disaster Detective” made one pause for thought. In his career in the Police Service, Dick was involved in the recovery and identification of bodies from crashes, terrorist atrocities and natural disasters. These incidents included the Selby Rail Disaster, the London Bombings in 2007 and the Boxing Day tsunami in the Far East. Dick has also been involved in standardising procedures and latterly of training people for this harrowing work. This was an educational if sometimes dour presentation given by somebody with expertise and respect for the bereaved families and their loved ones remains. On Thursday 21 March the Members and guests attended the Spring Ladies’ Luncheon at Ye Olde Bell and Barnby Dun. Then on April I, Jeff Jacklin “Used to be a Football Referee but he’s Better Now”. This was an entertaining look at refereeing in the Sunday Morning lower leagues. The presentation also featured video of incidents in professional games where the referee was punched, tripped up, pushed over and chased round the field by all the players from one side. This was a not to miss presentation. At the following meeting, April 15, Tony Barber recounted the history of the St lager Classic Horse Race. On May 6 Tony Dodsworth is “Following the Inca Trail to Machu Pichu”, and on May 20 Neville Williams will feature the “Yorkshire Wildlife Park”. Any interested men who would like to come to these meeting as a visitor to see what we do, with a view to joining if you like us, please call either George Kirk (07808191211) or Geoff Firth (01302 849734) for more information.

South Yorkshire Police Male Voice Choir

In October 1925 the Doncaster County Borough Police formed a Male Voice Choir to perform at the Doncaster Grand Theatre in order to raise money to buy boots for the less well off children in the Borough. Over time the choir's name changed due to force amalgamations and today the choir is known as The South Yorkshire Police Male Voice Choir, probably the oldest police male voice choir in the uk (94 yrs) with the same charitable ethos. Many concerts both home and abroad have been performed in front of many people and on Saturday 1st June 2019 at Hall Cross Lower Academy School at 7pm the choir will be in concert with guests The Doncaster Youth Swing Orchestra, compare is BBC Look North Presenter Phil Bodmer. Tickets are £10 to include interval refreshments and are available by phoning 01302 539284. Donations from a share of the proceeds are to be made to the Doncaster Cancer Detection Trust and DonMentia, the local Dementia charity group. New members are always sought. Further details on membership can be found at www.sypmvc.org.uk or contacting the choirs secretary on 01302 390579 or email malc@malbee.plus.com

Crowle Rescue Day gives close up access to 999 teams Rescue Day, the emergency services day held annually at 7 Lakes Country Park in Crowle near Scunthorpe, promises yet again to be an action packed event for all the family promoting the work of our 999 and rescue services. This year’s event is being held on Saturday 13th July and planning is already in the advanced stages for what promises to be another day of high octane displays on land, in the water and in the air. Organisers are putting together a full day’s schedule of live emergency and rescue displays with East Midlands Ambulance Service, Humberside Police and Humberside Fire & Rescue Service at the centre of the action, along with many more emergency, rescue and support teams involved. The crew behind running this popular event include many serving local emergency service staff, who come together each year to volunteer and make Rescue Day happen. One of the organising team, Martyn Johnson said: “Our constant aim is to run an event that lets the public get up close and see the great work that our 999 and support services do and how they deal with incidents, as well as the vehicles and equipment they use, which we hope generates a greater appreciation and understanding. We also use the day to give road, rail, water and fire safety tips to help keep our communities safer and we wrap it all up in a fun day that appeals to all of the family.” Regular Rescue Day favourites the Red Devils Parachute Display team will be appearing, along with fire, police, ambulance and water rescue teams who will be performing a range of exciting displays and demonstrations in the idyllic setting of 7 Lakes Country Park. Visitors will be able to meet crews and rescue dogs, see helicopters and take part and interact with the many different teams that will be attending the day. Advanced tickets can be purchased online from www.rescueday999.com from May onwards, or pay on the gate on the day.

SAND HOUSE ROCKS UP AT DONCASTER HERITAGE FESTIVAL The unique former Victorian marvel known as the Sand House will be one part of Doncaster’s history to feature in the town’s Heritage Festival, running from Saturday 4 May until Sunday 19 May. Events planned by The Sand House Charity for Doncaster Heritage Festival will tell the story of this remarkable feature of the town’s past. They include guided walks on the 6 and 19 May and a poetry writing workshop on the 16 May, led by eminent local poet, Ian Parks. The most ambitious of this year’s Sand House events is “Sand House Rocks!” It takes place in collaboration with Doncaster Youth Jazz Association. Using images, audio recordings, video, live music and the spoken word, it evokes the spirit of the community concerts that were held at the Sand House in the late nineteenth century. “Sand House Rocks!” takes place at St James’ Church, St Sepulchre Gate West, Doncaster on Saturday 18 May at 3pm. Tickets are £8 (£6 for under-16s) Speaking about “Sand House Rocks!” Chairman of Trustees of The Sand House Charity, Richard Bell, said “We held a similar event last year and received wonderful feedback. The involvement of Doncaster Youth Swing Orchestra brings a whole new dimension to what is already a fascinating story from the town’s past”. John Ellis MBE, Director of Doncaster Youth Jazz Association added “Last years "Sand House Rocks!" was a fascinating insight into this unique home of sand and rock, via wonderful pictorial evidence and the vivid memories of Doncastrians of that time. We are indeed honoured to be part of this inspired project”. Both the guided walks and the poetry writing workshop must be pre-booked, by contacting Doncaster Central Library Local Studies on 01302-734307 or by email to central.localhistory@doncaster.gov.uk. Tickets for “Sand House Rocks!” are available from the same source and on the door on Saturday 18 May. Further details of all these events can be found at www.thesandhouse.org.uk/events.
