JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - The municipality is looking for a new chief administrative officer. Clerk Candice Doiron sent out a news release Wednesday saying Bill Watson, who has been on medical leave since last spring, is no longer with the municipality. "We thank Mr. Watson for his contributions to the municipality during his time here and we wish him all the best in his future endeavours," the release said. Gary King, whose 35-plus years of municipal experience includes being the chief administrative officer (CAO) of Peterborough County before his retirement, will serve as interim chief administrative officer while the municipality seeks a replacement for Watson, who was hired two years ago. No reason was given for his departure and Mayor Mark Walas couldn't say whether he resigned or was asked to leave. "I cannot provide that information unfortunately," he said. The decision to hire King was made at a closed meeting council held July 27. Brighton is "very fortunate" to have King step in as interim CAO, Walas said.

ity." The mayor was asked whether Watson received a severance package. "Again I am unable to comment on any of that information (which) is privileged, of course." Walas said it's "unfortunate when the organization loses valuable members of staff. We wish Mr. Watson the best of success in the future." The mayor said he was "uncertain and unable" to say whether Watson's medical leave was related to his work. "The only information that we received is that Mr. Watson was on a medical leave," he said. King begins work Aug. 7. The municipality recently hired a firm to fill two positions - manager of planning, building and community development, and manager of public works and environment that became vacant as a result of staff departures. But it will be left to the interim CAO to help find a replacement. King will be allowed "to come in, review some of the information that council has been dealing with, (and) perhaps make some recommendations on that," Walas said. "Hopefully, council will support the recommendations" he puts forward, as to who they should hire. "Or he might provide some additional and/or different recommendations (about) what we are currently doing," he added. "We will look to his expertise to assist the municipality in that." Asked if the recommendations might have to do with improving the working relationship between staff and council, Walas replied: "The change, quite honestly, needs to come from the council. It is the council that needs, I believe, to work harder with staff, to support staff, and to allow the staff ... (to) do their jobs." King will "assist the municipality through until the end of the calendar year, and then there will be an opportunity with him to discuss that further," Walas said.

Brighton - It's good to have friends and none are better than the Friends of the Brighton Public Library. The group made its second donation of $4,000 on Thursday, which will go toward the purchase of furnishings and equipment for the library that's currently being expanded. The library board has set a goal of $150,000 and with the Friends' gift, the amount raised now stands at $110,000. Mellissa D'Onofrio-Jones, the library's chief executive officer, said the section in the municipal building that has been occupied by the library is ready to have furniture put in place and boxes unpacked. Now it's a matter of waiting "for the other side to be completed" - the area where municipal offices are located along with those once used by the health unit. The municipality will move all its staff upstairs at some point, giving the entire ground floor over to the library. "We're still saying the summer
of 2018 (for the reopening)," D'Onofrio-Jones said. The lobby will split the library into two sections. The north section will contain the adult and young adult materials, soft seating, public access computers and a table for working on. The main circulation desk will be in the south section, along with newspapers and magazines, the children's section and a multi-purpose program room which the library did not have before. It "will make a world of difference in the amount of programming we can offer," D'OnofrioJones said. "There's (also) potential for community organizations to book it," and "families having a little extra space to visit and meet and connect" when it's not otherwise being used. "There's a lot of opportunity with that room that we didn't have before," she said. Stan McMullin, the chair of Friends, said the group has about 55 card-carrying members. It raises money to pay for things not in the library board budget. It also helps with the cost of

having staff attend enrichment conferences to upgrade their skills and it runs a program for shut-ins that makes sure they have books to read. "No community can exist without a good library," McMullin said. "So many good things happen within the walls of a good library." Examples abound: Senior groups meet there, people and small businesses access databases "they can't afford to subscribe to on their own," young students practise their reading in the presence of dog guides, and tourists drop in to make use of the many resources it has offer. There's also the opportunity to learn new technologies and "how to use the internet appropriately," such as distinguishing between what is fake news and what are reliable sources, McMullin said. Library staff "will help you

sort out ... what is useful knowledge." Libraries are "the last holdout of democracy in some ways. Anybody can come into this place and have access to the world's information. You don't have to be rich." The library's expansion will enable its assets to be used more effectively, he said, and give the public additional resources, such as a larger collection and more reference materials. "It increases the power of this place (as) a hub for this community," McMullin said. He gave credit to the mayor and council "for coming through with (money for) something that's really, really important," and to D'Onofrio-Jones for her hard work in making it happen. He also thanked the community for the support it has shown in donating money to the Friends' fundraising efforts. "Every time you give us five bucks you can be assured we don't have any overhead, it goes immediately into the system," McMullin said.

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Although this is her first time running for office - a seat on Brighton council - Natasha Huizinga says she has been "politically active for a long time," through the Ontario and Canadian real estate associations. They have a lobbying arm and she's been their political action chair for a number of years, "so I've had the opportunity to sit at Queen's Park with politicians," as well as with those at parliament, talking about issues that are important to people in real estate, such as home ownership. Currently president of the Quinte and District Association of Realtors, Huizinga said the "extensive classes in leadership" she has taken through the Ontario Real Estate As-
sociation are "second to none" and she now feels "very ready" to be a member of council. "I love my community and I think it's time in (my) personal journey " to assume a role in its governance, she said. "I know this community can be better." All the leadership training she has received "has led me to this moment, and I'm willing to work with anybody." There is no place for "personal agendas" in council chambers. Being compassionate, listening to other people's ideas and "really understanding where they're coming from" is important to making decisions rather than rushing ahead like "a bull in a china shop," Huizinga said. "Sometimes your best leaders are the quiet ones ... When you stop and you listen before you speak, and

VICTORIAN TEA AT BRIGHTON'S PROCTOR HOUSE IN MID-AUGUST JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Proctor House Museum in Brighton will host a stately Victorian tea on Saturday, Aug. 18. Proctor House recreates the high Victorian lifestyle of the late 1800s so we thought what better event could we host than a Victorian tea complete with a selection of sweet and savoury treats served on delicate china, said Rick Daniels, president of the Save Our Heritage Organization, a registered nonprofit charity. Proctor House - now known as the Proctor House Museum - was turned into the mansion it is today by John E. Proctor, one of several local entrepreneurs who became wealthy during the mid- to late 1800s in the burgeoning Brighton economy, especially in lumber, shipping and agriculture. It all happened during the Victorian period, famous for its ornate furnishings and the stately lifestyle enjoyed by the wealthy, which is much in evidence at the Proctor House Museum at 96 Young St.
The Community York Road branch of the Woman's Institute will serve a memorable selection of period treats for Saturday's tea, and local musician Charlene Rivais will entertain. Proctor House tour staff will also be on hand to greet visitors and answer questions regarding the property, its history and Victorian times. The tea will be served both inside Proctor House and in the surrounding garden. There will be two seatings - from 1 to 2:30 p.m. and from 2:30 to 4 p.m. Proctor House was "saved and restored" by the Brighton community through the Save Our Heritage Organization in order to showcase the rich history of the area, Daniels said. "We believe this type of event will help us to continue to fulfil that mission and will keep the museum active and alive. We also welcome any feedback from the community regarding special events they would enjoy in the future." Tickets can be purchased for $12 in advance by calling the Proctor House Museum any day but Monday at 613-475-2144 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. The cost is $14 at the door. The ticket price includes a complete guided tour of the property at a future date.

you're not forming your response while someone is speaking, it's a good thing." Huizinga, who turns 47 next week, said her work with the real estate association has given her "a perspective of being able to go in and assess what is actually happening." She's also "very passionate about things" that she does. "If I say I'm going to do something I'm going to do it. If I say I'm going to try I'm going to try my best. I'm not perfect at everything but those who know me in the community know that I do the very best that I can with ... anything." Her involvement in the community includes being president of the Catholic Women's League in Brighton. Huizinga said the municipality relies "quite heavily" on its residential taxpayers and that needs to shift to "a more commercial tax base. But that's also going to keep young people here because there's going to be more jobs here." "We have a beautiful community," but it needs to create opportunities for "local talent to stay here," Huizinga said, noting one of her two children had to move out of the area to pursue a career.

FOOD BANK DONATIONS NEEDED YEAR-ROUND IN NORTHUMBERLAND Summer is often a time of letting go of routines, relaxing and enjoying time off. Perhaps it is this state of mind that also allows people to forget about the need at food banks. It is a common trend that food donations drop in the summer months. Food Banks Canada started a campaign this summer, #SummerHungerChallenge, as they noted the drop in donations. The campaign invites Canadians to raise enough funds to provide the 26 million meals needed this summer. As Thanksgiving and Christmas approach, people are reminded of the need to give to provide everyone with the traditional meals of the season; however, the need to give at food banks is year-round. In 2017 in Ontario, 499,415 people used a food bank, according to the Ontario Association of Food Banks. Of those using the food banks, one in three are children. Children also lose access to in-school breakfast and snack programs, making the need greater in the summer break. People who visit food banks come from all backgrounds, including employed people whose low wages do not cover basic living essentials, individuals on social assistance, and Canadians living on a fixed income, including seniors and people with disabilities. Half of households served by food banks identified as single-person households, according to the Ontario Association of Food Banks. Access to affordable housing, a critical need in Northumberland County, remains a major issue for food bank clients. According to the Ontario Association of Food Banks, 90 per cent of food bank clients live in rental or social housing, and 45 per cent have less than $100 left each month after paying basic expenses. With average rents for a one-bedroom apartment soaring over $1,000 a month in the Northumberland area, it doesn't take long for a monthly salary to dwindle, leaving little for food. No one wants to use a food bank, but after paying rent and hydro, there is little left for a low-income resident. Thirteen per cent of Canadians live in a state of food insecurity, which means they do not have reliable access to adequate amounts of safe, good-quality, nutritious food, according to Food Banks Canada. The root cause of hunger in Canada is low income, which consistently affects more than four million Canadians at any given time. Across Canada, each month, more than 850,000 people visit food banks for help. With recent announcements from the provincial government to cut planned increases for social assistance programs; the need at food banks will continue to rise. Northumberland residents are generous, but let's not forget the need for food donations is year-round.

MEMORIES ARE MADE OF THIS, AND THAT, AND OTHER ODD BITS FOR THOSE WHO HAVE FORGOTTEN THIS COLUMN IS WRITTEN BY THE GUY IN THE PIC WHO'S ALSO A REPORTER JOHN CAMPBELL Column
I'm pretty sure I've written this column before - or something like it - but I can't say for certain. My memory ain't what it used to be: A reservoir of knowledge so replete it won me thousands at Jeopardy in the comfort of my home (and even knew what replete meant without having to look it up). That my memory is beginning to fail comes as no surprise. It's a function of growing old. Wait. Does that even
make sense? My memory isn't functioning well because that's its function when a person is getting old? I'd ponder this further but I'm afraid I'd lose my train of thought. Which I often do, as with keys, eye glasses and grandchildren (who, thankfully have the means, if not always the inclination, to communicate where they are). I'm learning to live with my diminished faculty. One method that has proved successful is to limit the amount of sensory experiences that generate data for the mind to absorb. It's effective but it's also causing turmoil on the home front where my co-inhabitant of ... however many years has not taken kindly to, in her words, being ignored but which I prefer to think of as "selective listening," requiring as it does only every sixth word to be heard to get the gist of the "conversation." The technique has greatly reduced the amount of in-
put entering my memory banks, and the smacks on the shoulder are a reminder of just how well it's really working. There's a TV commercial in which the maker of a certain product boasts it improves memory. I'm definitely going to give it a try, even though the selling point is that the principal ingredient is jellyfish. To be honest I had never made the connection that jellyfish have excellent memories. Really, how hard can it be to remember to float? (Although that was an issue the last time I went swimming). Having a bad memory does make for awkward moments, especially when people hail you by name and you can't respond in kind, buddy and lady being poor substitutes. To those whom I have offended by not giving you the recognition you were due: My apologies. No offence was intended. You know who you are. Cuz I sure don't.

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Despite being defeated at the polls in 2014 after having served eight years on council, Emily Rowley says she never really left. She has continued to attend most of the meetings and she has "some concerns as to what's happened with the corporation, with the grey cloud that seems to be hanging over us here." Specifically, it's the "dysfunction" within the current council, which Rowley also experienced when she last served on council. It's a situation that needs to be addressed and she wants to assist in that effort by being voted back into office. "I'm hoping I can be part of a positive push forward with some vision I think we're lacking," she said. The past four years have
John Campbell/Metroland Emily Rowley says she wants to be part of a "positive push" to remove the grey cloud that hangs over Brighton. been "disheartening." "There's been nothing done strategically. All I've seen is reactionary answers to issues that need a bit more forethought." Rowley is especially concerned by the high staff
turnover, the most recent departure being that of the chief administrative officer, for reasons that haven't been disclosed publicly. "It's time to quit pointing fingers," she said. "We need to start over with ... (a) more positive vision moving forward." Whoever gets elected "better be prepared to roll up their sleeves. There's a lot of work that needs to be done ... rebuilding the corporation," Rowley said. "We're a sinking ship because there's a lot of staff gone." The municipality needs to rebuild its reputation but also restore the community's confidence in council and staff, who are "struggling to keep afloat" right now, she said. "I gave a lot of energy (to being on council before) and I still have a lot of energy to give, not just at the table but with the groups I was privileged to be involved with."
They included the downtown business association and the chamber of commerce. Rowley, who turns 62 this month, has started "easing off' on the hair-cutting business she started in 1983. Born and raised in Brighton, "this is my community," she said. "I see the benefits of growing up
here." Rowley remains involved with the local food bank, where she's been a member of the board for 20 years or so. "That's been a passion of mine," she said, particularly the Holiday Train that passes through the area in the weeks before Christmas. "That's been a real shot in the arm for the food

bank." She's also helped with Applefest over the same period. Rowley said Brighton needs to spend more on tourism and put more of an effort in its promotion. "We missed the boat on that," she said. "I want to see us get back with those partners (the municipality once worked with)."

DONATIONS BEING ACCEPTED FOR BRIGHTON FUNDRAISER IN SUPPORT OF HOSPICE JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Items continue to pour in for the Bridge Hospice's fourth annual giant indoor sale that will take place Aug. 25 at the Brighton and District Curling Club from 8 a.m. until mid-afternoon. "We get so many donations it takes a full week (to prepare them for the sale)," said Ruth Kerr, who organizes and runs the event with the help of her husband, Craig, and several women. The playing area is filled with goods that include furniture, tools, electrical appliances, clothing, knick-knacks, books and records. "It's all good quality stuff," Ruth said. The curling club, which donates use of its facility, "has been absolutely great in support of us since Day 1." The sale raised $4,200 in 2017, an increase of more than 40 per cent in proceeds from the year before, said Craig, who has served as secretary on the hospice's board of directors for six years. The money raised goes toward the organization's general operating expenses. "We get funding for about 60 per cent of our total (budget) but the other 40 per cent we've got to raise" - around $300,000, Craig said. The couple welcome donations, with one proviso: They must be in good condition, Ruth said. "Last year we had donations from Stirling, Warkworth, Campbellford, Colborne, Brighton," Craig said. Their advice to prospective donors is to call them at 613-4753018 as soon as possible to arrange to drop off or have picked up what they plan to give. Donations will be accepted up until a day before the sale, to allow time for pricing, Craig said. Last year "we had people coming at eight o'clock on that Saturday morning with carloads of things," Ruth said. "We couldn't take them." Craig said the indoor sale and other events are invaluable not only for the revenue they generate but also for the awareness they raise about the Bridge Hospice, a three-bedroom residence
in Warkworth that provides care for people who are terminally ill and nearing the end of their life. There is no charge for its services. "There is a lot of misunderstanding as to what hospice is," he said, noting they can come in different forms, which creates "a lot of confusion." Ruth pointed out the Bridge Hospice serves all of Northumberland County, not just Warkworth. It fills "a real gap" in the health-care system, said Craig, who's also the chair of the Bridge's fund development com-
mittee. It's working toward the creation of a foundation that will make investments which the board hopes will yield enough of a return annually to cover "a substantial portion" of the hospice's operational costs, he said. "Traditional fundraising is pretty risky. You get volunteer burnout, you get donor burnout, you get competition from other events." A foundation will also allow the hospice "to tap sources of revenue that to date we have never really tapped into," Craig added.
John Campbell/Metroland Ruth and Craig Kerr ask people planning to donate items to the upcoming fundraiser for The Bridge Hospice to call them at 613-475-3018 to make arrangements.

How to predict future body aches and pain now www.newscanada.com D
o you ever look at the bottom of your shoes? Experts say shoe treads can tell a lot about the way you walk and can even help predict the development of pain in your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and possibly your back. “Most people don’t think about their feet and lower limbs until they start to hurt, but shoe wear patterns can indicate possible issues before pain develops,” explains Kevin Fraser, president of the Pedorthic Association of Canada and a Canadian certified pedorthist. “The wear patterns on your shoes illustrate the repetitive motion of your feet and lower limbs, so they show if you have structural concerns that may lead to the development of pain and mobility problems.” Fraser says symmetrical wear on both shoes is normal, particularly along the edge of the heel and the big toe. However, it’s concerning if one shoe is worn more than the other, the heel is worn excessively, or there is a localized area of wear. Excessive wear along the outer side or inner edges is another warning sign. In addition to examining your tread wear, Fraser recommends
placing your shoes on a flat surface. The shoes should lie flat. If they tip inwards or outwards or the sides lean in or out, you should consider booking a consultation with a foot expert as you may have a biomechanical abnormality such as muscle imbalance, a leg length difference, or feet that roll too much inwards or outwards. Healthy feet roll gently from the outside of the heel inwards towards the big toe, so the arch absorbs the impact of each step to cushion the ankles, knees and hips. But if you notice anything concerning when you read your shoes, don’t be alarmed - a Canadian Certified Pedorthist can help manage most foot and lower limb issues with appropriate footwear selection or custom-made foot orthotics. Find more information on pedorthic treatment at www.pedorthic.ca.

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Beer lovers will love this: Their favourite brews are now on sale at Sobeys. It recently joined the list of more than 350 grocery stores in the province that can sell beer and cider. Since the local Sobeys began offering a selection of national brands and craft beers, along with cider, on July 20 the response from the public has been "very positive," said John Elderkin, the store's operator. "They like the hours of operation, and most of them are telling me it's about time." Craft beers are "really catching on" with shoppers, he added. Elderkin said he found it "surprising" just how many brands there are when the store began placing its orders through the LCBO. Sobeys also receives one delivery a week from the Beer Store. Elderkin doesn't see what the store is doing as competition for the two government outlets because "everything we get funnels through them so it's still

There are currently more than 450 Beer Stores and more than 660 LCBO stores across Ontario. "Part of the licensing agreement (is) that we ID everybody," Elderkin said. The provincial government says on its website that selling alcohol "is a public trust" so stores "must use strict con-

trols and follow mandatory rules when selling beer, wine and cider. These conditions are part of the government's commitment to ensure that alcohol is sold in a socially responsible manner." Other Sobeys locations, which began selling beer and cider more than a year ago, also offer wine but with "our size I don't know if that would ever happen" in Brighton, Elderkin said.

OPINION
BRIGHTON'S OWN: INTERESTED IN MANY THINGS, AND A TRUE GENTLEMAN COLUMNIST TELLS OF A BRIGHTON MAN'S STORIED CAREER IN PUBLISHING VIC SCHUKOV Column
Fred Wardle, born in Belleville, would have you believe (falsely) that his "greatest claim to fame" occurred there at a very young age: "I played hockey with Bobby Hull, Saturday mornings at the Belleville Arena, peewee, bantam and juvenile (leagues). I was the goaltender. Warming up in one game, he shot a puck and I caught it and my glove and puck both went into the far corner of the rink." When Wardle was 13, the family moved to Cornwall. After high school, he moved to Montreal to attend Sir George Williams University (now called Concordia). "I took general arts. I wanted to be a philosopher but I also had to eat (laughing.) I worked on a lot of university publications like the newspaper, yearbook and student handbooks so decided to go into publishing." After graduating in 1962, he marketed business books at McGraw Hill Book Company in Toronto,

eventually running the division as manager of direct mail operations. He was invited to the UK to develop a similar system, living for one year in London, then a year in Edinburgh. When he returned to Canada, two former colleagues asked him to join a company they started Methuen Publications helping create a book publishing company with joint British and Canadian ownership. While president, he established an affiliate in New York City from which many Canadian authors received American exposure. At Methuen, he worked with celebrities on hundreds of interesting publications such as My Quebec (1979) by Rene Levesque and The Music of Man (1979,) an international bestseller by violinist Yehudi Menuhin and TV producer Curtis Davis. "I was there for 20 years, before founding my own company, the Canadian Almanac and Directory publishing company. For 10 years, I digitized Canadian data to create a number of directories covering the environment, finance, associations and government at all levels." Wardle is a former CEO
Vic Schukov/Metroland Fred and Susan Wardle are shown here at home. of Copp Clark Professional Publishers and former director of the Carswell Company Ltd. (now Thomson Reuters), Canada's leading legal publishers. He retired (for the first time) in 1996: "I was invited to run the not-for-profit, Access Copyright, the Canadian copyright licensing agency as executive director. Taking it into a digital environment with a joint national library database helping to better identify works so that Canadian authors, illustrators, photographers and publishers received payment for copyright use from photocopies and digital downloads."
Wardle chaired the nominating committee of the International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organizations centred in Brussels. He served for four years on a national library-led working group of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to establish an International Standard Text Code (ISTC) - an important identifier of creative works in digital form. Wardle chaired the Canadian Copyright Institute, served as president of the Canadian Publishers' Council and was a director and co-chair of the Association for the Export of Ca-
nadian Books. After five years in copyright licensing, the tireless publisher retired (again). "We have had a cottage in Presqu'ile Park since 1988. After recently rebuilding on the property we settled here permanently." Wardle is a member of the Presqu'ile Yacht Club, former vice-commodore. He is presently director of community living in Campbellford/Brighton. "It is my way of giving back to our community for my home child mother's life here." A YMCA supporter, he also sings in the illustrious Westben Chorus. One of his most satisfy-
ing accomplishments is in forming Quarriers Canadian Family in 1996 to provide support to the families of home children sent to Canada from Scotland through the child migration program of the 1890s through 1930s. Wardle was appointed to the board of Quarriers Scotland in 1998, retiring in 2009. Along with his wife and sister Beth, he organized Quarriers' first reunion in Canada in Kingston. He has since organized meetings in eastern Ontario of over 300 home child families, maintaining a Facebook page. Wardle led two groups of Quarrier family members on visits to the site of the Scottish orphan homes. Fred met his soulmate, Susan Traer, 41 years ago at a Canadian booksellers' convention in Toronto. She was the publisher of the literary review magazine, Books in Canada: "I thought Susan was beautiful, thoughtful and had a great sense of publishing (birds of a feather.)" Susan, in turn, neatly captures the man: "He is interested in many things. A true gentleman."

CANDIDATE IN PROVINCIAL ELECTION HOPES TO LAND A SPOT ON CRAMAHE COUNCIL JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com CRAMAHE TOWNSHIP - Knocking on doors in the provincial election wasn't enough to win Derek Sharp the MPP seat for the riding in June, but it did give him insight into the concerns that township residents have about their municipality. "I spoke to a lot of people here in Cramahe, and the thing I heard most ... (was) 'We're paying really high property taxes and we're not really seeing much value for our money,'" he said. "I want to try to address those issues (as a member of council) ... in terms of getting people seeing more value for their property taxes." Sharp said he would also have as his goal the same thing he did as a candidate for the Trillium Party "more communication and connection between the people and their elected official. I want to keep those lines of communication
open and be constantly listening to people for what they want and the issues they want to see brought to council." His running for MPP raised Sharp's profile locally and has given the Colborne resident "a bit of a head start" as a candidate for council in knowing what the issues are in the municipal election, he said. "Our roads here in town have fallen about 10 years behind what they should be," he said. Sharp lives on Durham Street North and says it's "one of those roads that they do a patch job on every so often, and people don't like that," Sharp said. "They don't want to be driving on roads that are going to damage their cars every time they drive them." If elected, he said, he would try to get council to turn more of its attention "on the little things, because right now council has been taking a big, grandiose approach to developing" the
township. "What we need to focus on a little bit more for the people that are already here is the little details they're having to live with every single day, like the roads," Sharp said. Council members have become so enamoured with "big subdivision proposals" and large-scale projects such as expansion of the Big Apple restaurant that "they've lost sight" of what the people who live here need, he said. The 43-year-old "stay-athome dad" runs fundraisers and organizes shows such as Northumberland's Got Talent, "more or less (as) a hobby," he said. "The main thing I want to stress is that we have to get more communication between the people and council," Sharp said. "Council has become very disconnected. "We've got to get more independent thinkers in there that will fight for the people," he said.
