BATH CHRONICLE

Jake Edwards (left) and Henry Taylor, of King Edwards School in Bath, act out a scene from Matthew Bourne's Lord of the Flies. The boys have been both selected to appear in the production at the Millennium Centre in Wales.

The Bath Chronicle is working in partnership with Wessex Water to launch Cash for your Community, a campaign giving local community groups the chance to win a share of ÂŁ10,000. Charities, primary schools and non-profit organisations can register by filling out a slip, to be printed in the paper every week between October 9 and October 30. You can also enter online at www.bathchronicle.co.uk/cash. Early nominations will be accepted via The Bath Chronicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website before October 9. All registrations must be received before November 5. A judging panel will choose 20 worthy causes. The share of the ÂŁ10,000 these groups receive will depend on the number of voting tokens they collect. The top 20 groups will be announced in The Bath Chronicle on November 13 and readers will have the chance to vote for their favourites via voting tokens printed over four weeks in the paper. The winners will be announced at a finalist event on December 15. First prize is ÂŁ4,000, second prize is ÂŁ2,000, third prize is ÂŁ1,000 and six runners up will receive ÂŁ500. All tokens will be counted and verified by an independent source.

Pre-promotion of the Cash for your Community campaign started two weeks before launch. Using various tools of promotion, we supported the campaign with editorial teasers, in-paper promotional adverts in Bath Chronicle. As well as A2 posters at all available sites with the Bath Chronicle retailers.

A group of women from the village got together recently and came up with the idea of creating a book about the Claverton men who fell.

The road will only be restricted as and when traffic signs are in position and may not be effected for the whole of the period but only for so long as is necessary to execute the works. This is anticipated to be between the hours of 09:30 to 15:30 for a period of one day. ALTERNATIVE ROUTE Greenway Lane (unaffected part), Rosemount Lane, Lyncombe Vale, Prior Park Road, Ralph Allen Drive, North Road, Bradford Road and Entry Hill.

The problems they discover with Arnie, who can travel 350 metres along a sewer, are of-ten caused by fat poured down sinks which later congeals.

In Greater London Britain’s largest ever ‘fatberg’ was discovered - it was a lump of food and fat mixed with wet wipes the size of a London bus.

With some sewers no wider than 100mm - less than the length of an iPhone - it is only a matter of time before the congealed fat causes a blockage, or even worse sewer flooding.

Around 75% of sewer blockages are caused by disposable personal products like wet wipes which, when mixed with fat create so-called fatbergs.

remember to only flush paper, poo and pee down the toilet, and bin anything else.

The city of Bath has risen to the challenge of supporting little Harmonie-Rose’s family by raising £10,000 for the Hope 4 Harmonie appeal in just one week. The generosity of the city has been

overwhelming for the family and has seen a series of fundraising events organised – with more arranged each day – for the 11-month-old who is fighting meningococcal septicaemia. Full story - pages 6,7,8&9

As house prices soar, a new report has revealed that one in five children in Bath is now living in poverty.

Support agencies say they are doing what they can, but more and more families are turning up at food banks and needing help making ends meet. Both Penny McKissock, the director of local support agency Southside, and council leader Paul Crossley said they were surprised to see such a high level of child poverty in Bath. And the problem is much worse in some areas than others, with many more children from struggling families living in areas such as Twerton and Southdown. The knock-on effect of the budget cuts for children whose families need extra support is not yet known. But, in the meantime, the Bath and North East Somerset Council and volunteer agencies say they are pulling together to try to keep families afloat and mitigate the detrimental effect of poverty on the lives of Bath’s children. Full story – pages 8&9

Dear Community Organiser,

Here we offer a handful of tips in support of your campaign, from coupon collection to further fundraising ideas. Even little things can make a big difference.

Congratulations!

Tips on how to collect:

We are happy to inform you that your organisation has been shortlisted for the ‘Cash for your Community 2014’. We are now offering the 20 groups/organisations the chance to win a share of the £10,000 dream fund. The total prize money will be proportionate to the number of printed coupons you collect from The Bath Chronicle. This starter pack will give you some hints and tips on how to rally support for your organisation as well as advice and dates relating to the ‘Cash for your Community’campaign. On Thursday, November 13 your organisation, together with the other successful shortlisted groups, will appear in the Bath Chronicle as part of the Cash for your Community feature along with your voting code. Members of the community can then collect coupons on behalf of their chosen organisation. The coupons will be printed in the Bath Chronicle from from Thursday, November 13 to Thursday, December 4. We encourage that coupons collected by the community are handed to you directly so that you can send them to us in batches. We then need to receive those coupons by 12pm noon, Wednesday December 10. Results will be announced in the Bath Chronicle once all votes are counted and verified. We’ve suggested ways you might want to raise awareness and canvass support from your local community.

It all started with a spark, but it quickly turned into a sparkle for happy couple Bob and Phyllis Skuse from Bath, who recently celebrated 60 years of marriage at their diamond wedding anniversary party. The couple, who both worked at Vanstone’s Electrical in Bath, did not have to look too far to discover romance. Bob, who was born and bred in Wellow, met Phyllis, who is originally from Odd Down, when they both attended Cannings College in the centre of Bath.

The Bath Chronicle has teamed up with Wessex Water to give away a share of £10,000 to worthy community groups. This week judges sat down to decide which 20 groups from all the entrants should go forward for a public vote. The winners of this year’s Cash for Your Community initiative will soon be announced. And now the chance is open to vote for your favourite club to make that happen. The chosen 20 finalists have been sent packs containing hints and tips, social media images, and posters to help push their campaigns. Voting begins today and all entries should be submitted by December 4. For details of how to vote, see the advert below this article. The groups will need to get their communities involved to help them collect as many votes as they can. How much of the £10,000 prize pot they win all depends on the number of votes cast for them.

Investing in the community for 25 years As head of waste treatment at Wessex Water, Ashlea Lane oversees the treatment of millions of litres of waste water every day. Since Wessex Water was formed in 1974 sewage treatment has undergone a revolution. In those days it was not unusual for the River Avon through Bristol to be chlorinated in the summer to kill the smell. Today the quality of the water we return to the environment after treatment has never been higher - we achieve 99.99% compliance

with sewage discharge consents. And we continue to invest in better treatment such as the £26 million improvement scheme at Westonsuper-Mare sewage treatment works to improve water quality.
