COMMENT

EVOLUTION NOT REVOLUTION

A

s the new editor of The Mid Sussex Handbook I would like to welcome you to the first issue under Carnah’s ownership.

Carnah Publications currently publishes Horsham Pages South, Horsham Pages North and Southwater Life and the proximity of The Mid Sussex Handbook makes it a perfect fit for our publishing business.

I would like to thank Sharon and Phil Scott for all their hard work in ensuring a smooth transition of the business and to congratulate them for growing the magazine to cover both Burgess Hill and Haywards Heath over 12 years and building a loyal following of advertisers and readers. The magazine has grown an enviable reputation delivering 24,000 magazines door-to-door in Burgess Hill and Haywards Heath and parts of Lindfield and Cuckfield.

Our team of Dee Ryder (Admin), Gemma Gray

(Sales), Clare West (Distribution) and myself (Editor) will be keen to maintain the community feel of The Mid Sussex Handbook and maintain exactly the same distribution areas. The magazines will continue to have no political affiliations and are open to anyone in the locality to contribute news, views and articles.

There will be gradual improvements in design and content and I welcome any feedback, comments and suggestions.

The main change you will notice is that we have re-branded the magazine to be called Burgess Hill Pages and Haywards Heath Pages and will gradually try to make the editorial more relevant to the areas its distributed in. I look forward to serving the community of Burgess Hill.

Richard Milbourn, Editor E: editor@carnahpublications.com

SECOND SANTA’S GROTTO TO OPEN

A

Santa's grotto which last year raised over £23,000 for a local children's charity is setting its sights even higher for 2019.

Among the projects to have benefited from The Budding Foundation's event at South Downs Nurseries last Christmas were gardening and conservation project with several local schools and clugs, as well as respite care and equipment for disabled youngsters. Smaller grants included school uniform assistance, educational laptops and course fees for young people trying to turn their lives around. The fund was also able to meet the shortfall in funding for the Burgess Hill youth minibus.

Now tickets have gone on sale for this year's mammoth Toy Factory in Hassocks as well as for a brand new destination at Old Barn Garden

Centre at Dial Post near Horsham where Santa’s Enchanted Forest will see a magical plantation come alive with a story telling owl, enchanting music and even a waterfall.

Clive Gravett, founder of The Budding Foundation said: “We are very excited to have been given this opportunity by Tates of Sussex to open our second grotto. The Tate family fare very kindly funding the construction of the grotto, and you can book online direct with us so all of the ticket revenue comes straight to the charity.

"We are hoping to raise more than £40,000 this year from grotto ticket sales and other associated Christmas activities. We are also looking for more volunteer elves, so if anyone can spare a few hours or even a few days over the Christmas period, please get in touch.”

The Budding Foundation is a registered charity raising funds to help improve the lives of young people, with the emphasis on those who have suffered social deprivation, trauma or disability.

The two Grottos are located at Santa’s Toy Factory, South Downs Nurseries, Hassocks and Santa’s Enchanted Forest, Old Barn Garden Centre, Dial Post.

MID SUSSEX DISTRICT COUNCIL

INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADES PLANNED

M

id Sussex District Council is looking at ways to improve sustainable transport infrastructure, reduce congestion and increase connectivity across Burgess Hill.

Burgess Hill will grow significantly over the next 15 years into a modern, thriving town where local people want to live and work.

Substantial investment is planned from both the private and public sector that will see the development of around 5,000 new homes, two new business parks, new schools, community hubs and a new town centre.

Mid Sussex District Council is currently working with West Sussex County Council on a Place and Connectivity Programme to deliver significant infrastructure improvements that

10

DEC/JAN 2020

will help link all these development areas and other key destinations in the town together. A number of town centre projects are currently under consideration including improved access arrangements for Burgess Hill and Wivelsfield train stations, enhanced cycle routes, accessible pedestrian routes and improvements to bus services.

A public engagement programme is scheduled for spring 2020 to find out the views of local people and provide as many people as possible with the opportunity to have their say on the proposed improvements.

Mid Sussex District Council, in partnership with the Local Enterprise Partnership Coast to Capital and West Sussex County Council, has secured £10.9 million from the Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) for the Place and Connectivity programme.

The funding supplements the £16.96m already secured from the Local Growth Fund to assist with the upgrading of the A2300.

Councillor Judy Llewellyn-Burke, Mid Sussex District Council Deputy Leader said: “The growth of Burgess Hill provides us with a tremendous opportunity to look at Burgess Hill as a whole and to carefully assess how we can improve traffic flows and develop more sustainable ways of travelling.

“The focus of our Place and Connectivity programme is currently on gathering the data we will need to make informed decisions. Some infrastructure projects, like our proposed pathway improvements at World’s End Recreation ground, can be delivered quickly but most will be delivered gradually over the next few years. Each one is like a small piece in a jigsaw, fitting together and building towards significantly improved transport and travel around the town.”

THE CAPITOL

NEW VERSION OF CLASSIC STORY

T

here were smiles all round at The Capitol’s Peter Pan Press Launch when this year’s cast and staff from The Capitol started to feel festive in the build up to their fantastic family pantomime. Nick Mowat, General Manager and Pantomime Director welcomed local media contacts and sponsors and introduced the cast at The Capitol, Horsham.

Anthony Sahota stars as Peter Pan “the boy who never grew up” and will appear alongside Nicola Hume, well known for presenting the breakfast radio show for 6 years on Heart FM. Nicholas Collier and Rebecca Lafferty, who have both appeared in West End shows play Captain Hook/Mr Darling and Wendy Darling respectively and their “on stage” sons John and Michael will be played by four local rising stars Daniel Kendon, Oscar Ward-Dutton, Dexter LamleyGrinstead and Theo Ranganathan. Following pantomime tradition, there will be a welcome return from Hywel Dowsell who plays the Dame, Mrs Smee and together with “her” son Mini Smee played by James Fletcher, the two will make the perfect double-act.

Complemented by a juvenile ensemble of 26 lost boys and girls who were selected at the theatre’s summer auditions and all of whom attend local schools, this brand NEW version of the classic story is kindly sponsored by

WINTER WARMTH _ó=gÉ~åÉííÉ=jÉêÅÉê

A

s days get darker and colder it’s tempting to huddle up, turn up the heating and hibernate until the winter is over. But that really is a waste, so here are some of our favourite ways to beat the winter blues.

Make sure your home is efficiently heated.

Being cold is miserable but sitting in t-shirts in December with the heating blazing is ridiculous.

Check out the Energy Saving Trust website for tips on saving energy, money and reducing your carbon footprint. Their section on Thermostats and Controls is especially useful www.energysavingtrust.org.uk Modern heating controls, especially the digital kind you can operate from an app on your mobile, give you the ability to ‘tweak’ the heating in your home, allowing you to reduce the heat if it’s unseasonably warm, or you’re going away for a long weekend for example.

Sleep soundly On a cold, grey winter’s morning getting out of bed is effort enough, but it’s even worse if you’ve had a bad night’s sleep. Overheated rooms affect quality of sleep, so a bedroom that is too warm is both wasting energy and affecting your ability to rest properly. According to The Sleep Council the ideal temperature is about 1618 degrees C. See their website for lots more tips on creating the best environment for sleep www.sleepcouncil.org.uk Snuggle up Winter months in the UK are not one consistent temperature, so flexibility is the key to getting the heat levels just right. Have an extra layer available for the bed for the coldest nights and try to buy good quality, sustainable products. You can now even get duvets filled with recycled plastic bottles, and having slept under one

24

DEC/JAN 2020

recently and matching pillows, I can thoroughly recommend them!

If you hunker down on an evening or weekend with a box set or the latest series on catch up, remember that you’ll tend to feel colder if you’re sitting still for a long time. Try to move around a bit (well someone has to get up and fetch the hot chocolate…) and treat your sofa to a cosy throw to avoid the temptation to turn up the heat.

Get some fresh air Make the most of sunny winter days with a walk in the woods, local park or the beach. If you have a garden there are always things to do - just remember if you’re clearing up to leave plants and berries and seeds that wildlife might use for food.

Get crafty Making and repairing things is a great way to beat the winter blues. Collect natural materials (and inspiration) on walks, Pinterest is full of ideas for simple artwork - you don’t need to be a great artist. Have a go at up-cycling an old piece of furniture or frame some of those holiday photos to cheer you up when it’s gloomy outside.

For more ideas on a sustainable home find us on Facebook, Instagram or our website: www.kinderliving.co.uk

BURGESS HILL LIBRARY

SNEAK PREVIEW OF NEW LIBRARY

A

n exhibition of the new glass-fronted Burgess Hill Library design and layout has been on display at the current library up until it was closed on Saturday 16 November.

The exhibition featured 3D designs for the new building, which demonstrated exactly what the library will look like inside and where all the facilities will be located. These include flexible shelving, study space and an upgraded children’s area.

The West Sussex County Council library is moving from its current location at The Martlets Hall to 15-19 The Martlets, a few hundred meters from the existing library, and will open on Tuesday 3 December. It is moving as part of the town centre regeneration project.

Jacquie Russell, West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Fire and Rescue and Communities, said: “Moving to a new

26

DEC/JAN 2020

site and upgrading the facilities and services on offer is great news for Burgess Hill residents. We’re also delighted to be at the very centre of the new development that forms the heart of the town’s regeneration project.

“In addition, the new library building will give us the opportunity to work with a range of partner organisations providing a range of services under the same roof in a more cost effective manner.

“Do drop in to see the new library building designs and put your questions about the move and the new site directly to our staff.”

The new building will offer better services and accessibility, including a lift and Changing Places Toilet and delivers on feedback received from customers.

In addition to a modernised public computer area, the new library will also have an attractive study space, an upgraded Please mention BURGESS HILL Pages when responding to adverts

childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s area with seats and tables for youngsters of all sizes and high-backed bean bags for comfy parent/child reading.

The new library will also have flexible shelving to allow for a range of sessions, including author events and family activities in and out of term time.

Library staff will be on hand in the exhibition area throughout the day on Wednesday 30 October to answer any questions from visitors about facilities, services and scheduled events.

It is planned that the current library will close at 4pm on Saturday 16 November and the new library will open at 9.30am on Tuesday 3 December.

OPENING IN NOVEMBER Leonardslee Lakes and Gardens is now open to the public throughout the period November to March for the first time in its history. The estate will only close on Christmas day.

A

dam Streeter, General Manager, says:“Autumn is very special at Leonardslee, with magnificent displays in the woodland gardens as the leaves turn, and the colours reflected on the seven lakes in the valley. We have rebuilt the paths, so there are many great walks, in any weather, and dogs on leads are welcome too.

We are planting thousands of bulbs and introducing snowbells and other plants to bring the main flowering season forward, to enjoy earlier in the year.

“Also we have an extensive new programme of events in the autumn and winter months and planned throughout 2020. ‘Shopfest’ on November 17th is a showcase for an inspiring collection of art, crafts and handmade goods by independent business pop-ups exhibiting lifestyle, fashion and homeware.

“A further highlight in the gardens is ‘Leonardslee Illuminated’ - with woodland trails lit up for a festival of light, sound and festive cheer. This runs from December 12th to 15th, and 19th to 22nd.”

Popular woodland areas to visit in the gardens to see the autumn colours include the American Hickory trees, with fluorescent yellow leaves;

Kasura or Candy Floss trees, whose unusual ovalshaped leaves change to a light orange colour and produce a strong fragrance of burnt sugar; Black Gum trees, a brilliant red and yellow; the North American oaks that tower over the garden; and the Swamp Cypresses with their dazzling orange colours, found along the edges of the lakes.

Leonardslee Lakes and Gardens opened to the public on April 6th 2019 after a decade’s closure.

The opening followed two years’ major restoration work on the Grade 1 Listed gardens and on-site facilities by Penny Streeter OBE who acquired the estate in 2017.

The extensive garden collection of plants from around the world dates from 1888, when Sir Edmund bought Leonardslee from his in-laws.

From this period, parties were invited to visit the estate, which continued in the ownership of the Loder family until 2010.

Leonardslee Gardens and Estate is open every day except Christmas Day, 9am to 4pm autumn and winter opening hours. The rock garden and three paths will be closed until mid-December due to essential renovation work: www.leonardsleegardens.co.uk

BOOK REVIEW

HORSHAM DISTRICT IN 100 OBJECTS

A

land of castles, lakes and a dragon demands an amazing book to tell its story. And that is what has been crafted. Using over 230 photographs and 100,000 words, The Heritage of Horsham District in 100 objects, explores and celebrates the land that lies between Gatwick and Brighton. Using 100 objects as signposts, the book by Horsham Museum Curator Jeremy Knight and edited by Michael Burt, Chairman of the Horsham District Heritage Forum, draws on objects put forward by the Forum to tell a 100 million year old story through 13 themes and so creates a real eye opener.

Very few towns in the world have a dinosaur named after it, but Horsham does, the Horshamosaurus, so that became object 1 in the list of 100. But then the story explored the telling of the other dinosaur finds in the District including the Great Horsham Iguanodon,(no 2) the inspiration for the Crystal Palace/Sydenham Park Victorian creation.

However, the biggest surprise was the discovery made by the Horsham Archaeological Group of a Mural Crown Pot, (no 8) not well known in the world of Roman archaeology, but an amazing pot that combines both Roman architectural prowess and religious beliefs. This complements the Wiggonholt water cistern or water tank (no 9) bearing the Christian symbol, now on display at Parham House, which itself is one of the 100 objects.

One decision made early on was that the objects did not have to be small, portable affairs, but could be man-made structures. Therefore, the Wey and Arun canal that pops in and out of the District features as no 17 in the 100 objects. The creation of a waterway from London to Portsmouth to avoid the French fleet during the Napoleonic Wars made a fascinating story and the fact that today the heritage item has been “re-purposed” as a leisure resource, provides an added

32

DEC/JAN 2020

dimension. The canal did not feature in the Transport chapter, but in Warfare along with the cannons (no 16) that were the gateposts to the Napoleonic military depot in Horsham. Obviously in a land of castles, lakes and a dragon, the castles of Knepp (14) and Bramber (13) are included, Bramber being the most prominent, Knepp, because of its military history, the stone of part of which was used to build the A24 which is another interesting story.

Some stories are poignant, covering themes which resonate with the world today; such as the posters for the abolition of slavery (33), over 200 years old and yet still a contemporary issue; back then as an emotive a subject as Brexit is today. Last year the nation marked Women’s Suffrage, which was celebrated in Henfield with two mosaics; they feature in the book at number 36 along with the barely known stories of Henfield ladies’ involvement in the movement, a story that involved an American actress who settled in Henfield and entertained noted guests, as shown in the Backsettown Visitor book (37).

The book, published by Horsham Museum as part of the Horsham District Council’s Year of Culture, also covers themes such as Work, from the Wealden iron firebacks (no 63) which act as a signpost to tell the heritage of the iron industry, to a poster for Walter Wood’s mower (67), a paper record of an important local industry, whilst the Patriot Engineers, a Horsham based company, established only for the duration of WWII is recorded through a commemorative brochure (68).

BOOK REVIEW

As opposed to work, the chapter on Play includes cricket, the sport of the District, with over a 300 year old legacy from the earliest known local match recorded in 1719 at Henfield; the story of cricket is highlighted by an unusual shop sign (pictured right) , a set of cricket stumps (82). Its ancestor, stoolball is illustrated with a rare postcard (83) of an early 20th century match at Cowfold, and football a photograph of an amateur side, Carfax United (pictured left) from 1902-3 (84). The sport that died out, bull baiting, which in Horsham went out of fashion in 1813 is recounted using the bull ring (87).

Agriculture has always been a feature of the District’s life. Therefore, from Bramber the book includes a charming portrait of George Bailey (61), whose life story stands for the life of the shepherd and farmworker. From Cowfold Capons Farm ( 55) is used to illustrate the yeoman farmer, while the Tithe Barn from Sullington Manor (57) illustrates another aspect of agricultural and farming life.

Please mention BURGESS HILL Pages when responding to adverts

The Heritage of Horsham District in 100 Objects is a culmination of over 30 years working with the District’s heritage. It is a fascinating account and will hopefully encourage people to discover more about the area they live or work in.

The book is available from 8 October from local bookshops and from Horsham Museum & Art Gallery priced £19.99. Horsham Museum is open Monday-Saturday 10am – 5pm. Admission is free.

HOW DOES COLOUR AFFECT YOU?

D

o you tend to always wear the same safe colours? You could be missing out on making yourself feel great!

We are heavily influenced by the psychology of colour too. For example, Green strikes the eye in a way that requires no adjustment and is, therefore, restful. Using shades of green in bedrooms will aid sleep and calmness. It is the colour of balance.

Orange is stimulating - it focuses our minds on issues of physical comfort – food, warmth etc, and sensuality. It’s fun! Whereas Blue is the colour of the mind and is essentially soothing; it affects us mentally, rather than physically as red does.

Strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter soft blues will calm the mind and aid concentration.

Not only do the colours we wear effect how we look and feel, but how others perceive us. The colours we like they may not necessarily be those that suit us.

Colour analysis determines which colours of clothing and makeup harmonise with a person’s skin complexion, eye and hair colour. Colour is a clever way to instantly transform your look positively. Wearing shades that harmonise and balance with your natural colouring, will add radiance to your skin, making you look younger, fresher and healthier.

Knowing your colours when shopping will save time and money too!. You’ll be able to build a wardrobe of outfits you love, always ensuring you can easily mix and match, and look your best!
