Welcome to the June issue of The Crowle and Ealand Arrow.
It feels so good to be back and we are so sorry we didn’t produce the May issues of the Arrow. We felt it was the right thing to do to protect our delivery staff and readers when there were still many unknowns about Covid 19. We have given careful consideration to when would be the right time to produce a new issue and taken advice from public health, local government, Royal Mail and others within this sector. I am sure you will have been moved by the generosity of our community, their spirit, good humour and positivity. At such a bleak time, there is so much to be thankful for. I am humbled by the commitment and motivation of our NHS staff who are working with this virus daily and carers who are living with it in their care homes. I sincerely hope we never forget your bravery. To the army of support that has kept us all going, our local shop keepers, I don’t know how we could manage without you and hope we continue to repay your hard work and effort in the future by shopping local. Our police, Fire Service, bus drivers, shop workers, teachers and of course, everyone within the community who has volunteered their help and support to those in need and looked after their neighbours. Our next challenge after lockdown is how we learn to live with the threat of this virus. We still need to work, be educated, exercise, care, pray and socialise. I have been in contact with each advertiser in this month’s issue either by phone or email, whose main priority is the safety of their customers and themselves. Social distancing is paramount to reducing transmission as well as regular handwashing. We all have a responsibility to beat this virus and this is the only way we can help until our scientists find a treatment or vaccine. So, until we are safe, this community will continue to do what it does best, support one another, look after our most vulnerable and be mindful of how we can reduce the chances of transmission. The deadline for the July issue is Monday 15th June. The July issue will be distributed by 30th June. Keep safe everyone.

Rescue Day 2020 – CANCELLED It is with regret that Rescue Day 2020, which was due to be held on Saturday 11th July at 7 Lakes Country Park, Crowle has been cancelled, following the latest guidance from the UK Government and Public Health England in response to the COVID-19 outbreak. Several of our organisers are employed by our emergency and health services and along with our stakeholders, who support the planning and delivery of Rescue Day are all under extreme pressure at this time, therefore regrettably a joint decision has been taken to cancel the event. Chris Long, Chair of the Rescue Day Society, said “We thank our hosts 7 Lakes Country Park and all our organisers, officials, volunteers, exhibitors and their families for their support during these unprecedented times. This decision has not been taken lightly and in partnership with our key stakeholders we need to ensure the safety of our visitors, exhibitors, emergency and rescue services.
Furthermore, our social responsibilities extend to the broader population and the potential drain on valuable public health resources on which we are all reliant.” Rescue Day remains committed to promoting the great work of our emergency and voluntary services, raising money for charities and good causes, it has funded many lifesaving public defibrillators and equipment which have been placed in local communities. We know our visitors and exhibitors will be sad to hear that this year’s event has been cancelled, however we are pleased to let you know that Rescue Day will return in 2021 on Saturday 10th July 2021 and we look forward to welcoming you all back next year.

THE AXHOLME ACADEMY MARATHON 4 NHS RAISES ÂŁ2144 FOR SCUNTHORPE & GOOLE NHS TRUST 166 students, staff, parents, ex students and governors from The Axholme Academy took on a "Marathon 4 NHS" challenge and it was a huge success! It generated a community spirit, resilience and togetherness aswell as getting many students, parents, ex students, governors and staff active! The challenge involved either covering a marathon distance of 26.2 miles on foot or covering 68 miles on a bike. Distances were recorded daily using an online recording sheet. In just 7 days our Academy community covered a colossal 7343Km which is the equivalent of 174 marathons, almost 25 marathons per day for a whole week! We decided to support our local North Lincs and Goole NHS Trust through this challenge and I am delighted to report that a whopping ÂŁ2144 was raised!
What a way to do our bit during this time of crisis and let's hope this money literally helps save lives! Thanks to every single person who took part in this challenge and also to all those people that sponsored too. It is greatly appreciated. Mr L. Beesley

Crowle Peatland Railway - Acquisition of a Lisbon Tram Crowle Peatland Railway has been awarded ÂŁ11,392 funding by the SSE Keadby Wind Farm Fund to enable it to purchase a tram to accommodate passengers on its line at Crowle Moor. The peat railways on Thorne & Hatfield Moor did not have passenger vehicles and the Crowle Peatland Railway has had to be inventive in finding a solution that would enable it to carry passengers. The problem was solved when they were offered a Portuguese Tram. The Tram. number 711, entered service in Lisbon in 1936 and remained in service for over 50 years. It and a number of its stablemates were acquired around 20 years ago by a collector in the UK who is now looking to give them a new lease of life. The chassis of 711 was constructed by the Wolverhampton firm of Maley & Taunton, which also built trams for Blackpool and the Isle of Man. The elegant wood body of the tram was built by Carris, the Lisbon tram Operator. Mel Bailey, chairman of Crowle Peatland Railway trustees, commented "the tram is an important part of the development of the railway and will enable us to take visitors for trips at our site on Crowle Moor. Thanks are due to SSE Keadby Wind Farm Fund for the generous donation, Julie Reed trustee in charge of fundraising and our members for their continued support". William Coleman, the trustee responsible for the Tram's restoration said: "we will have a certain amount of superficial work to do on the tram before it can enter service but won't know the full extent until we get to work once the tram is delivered." Crowle Peatland Railway - Crowle
Peatland Railway was formed to preserve the history and heritage of peat extraction in the Humberhead Peatlands – in particular, the story of the peatland railways. It s a project of the Isle of Axholme and Hatfield Chase Landscape Partnership and has been funded thanks to money from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The maintenance shed was made possible with a grant from the SSE Keadby Wind Farm Fund and support from North Lincolnshire Council. Our volunteer members are crucial o the achievement of our aims.

As a charity we are already under great financial pressures. The outbreak of Covid-19 (Coronavirus) only adds further pressure, as we’ve lost the ability to generate sustainable income streams overnight, this will severely impact on our limited financial resources. The reduction in income could have a devastating impact on our ability to continue caring for the thousands of local people who rely on our services annually. As a charity, we rely almost entirely on the donations and generosity of you, our local community. Sadly, following the cancellation and postponement of our fundraising activities, we’re now anticipating a loss of income in excess of £500,000. Even at this very difficult time, our Inpatient Unit remains fully operational, and our clinical team are working tirelessly 24/7 to support local patients and families at the hardest, most difficult time in their lives.
We’re excited to reveal that this year our Open Gardens scheme is going virtual! Due to the impact of Covid19 restrictions one of our longest running and best loved fundraisers is turning virtual for its 2020 programme. So we’re asking all green fingered gardening enthusiasts to get involved and digitally showcase their gardens to the public this summer. For further information please email llh.enquiries@nhs.net

A big well done to Cassie from Station Raod Keadby for selling her sunflowers from her very own front garden sunflower shop in aid of a very good cause! She grew them herself from seed to raise money for Keadby's covid-19 fund. Her hard work helped fund buying food to make food parcels for people in the village.
A very aspirational young girl!
