HOW CAN THE WARDENS HELP YOU?

O

on page 44 of this issue there is some detailed information regarding Southwater Wardens and what they can do to assist the community. They are based in Beeson House in Lintot Square and it is useful for everyone in Southwater to know in what ways they can help:• Provide a reassuring, uniformed patrolling presence.

• Reduce fear of crime and improve the quality of life.

• Deal with environmental crime issues.

• Reduce incidents of criminal damage and antisocial behaviour.

• Support the community with activities for young people.

• Support vulnerable members of the community.

• Offer advice on crime prevention and fire safety.

• Work in partnership with other agencies.

• Act as professional witnesses.

But what they don’t do is: • They are not a replacement for the police.

• They are not an emergency service or response team.

• They do not work 24/7.

• They are not a care service but are able to signpost to the relevant agencies.

• They are not parking wardens and cannot issue parking tickets.

The Wardens can be contacted at: Dominic Woodhead 07789 943193 Jacquie Cave 07789 943156 or emailed at Southwater.Wardens@horsham.gov.uk Richard Milbourn, Editor E: editor@carnahpublications.com

DIY WORKSHOPS TO FIX IT YOURSELF

A

new business in Horsham is offering DIY workshops to learn how to Fix It Yourself and save money. They offer a unique range of workshops to teach practical household maintenance tasks, such as re-sealing a bath or shower, putting up a shelf, hanging pictures and rails, basic plumbing, basic electrics, tool use, understanding how your home works, DIY safety, and many invaluable top tips!

David from Fix It Yourself says: “Many people are keen to avoid paying for costly home repairs, but lack the experience or knowledge to do those

repairs themselves. Up until now this training has not been available locally, but Fix it Yourself workshops are now available in Horsham. These are hands on and flexible, concentrating on the specific skills best suited to your needs.�

The Fix It Yourself website enables you choose and book from a range of workshop options. You can choose to attend a mixed workshop, though women only workshops are also available.

or our meeting on 22 January the speaker unfortunately cancelled but we had a good time celebrating Rose's 90th birthday!

We played 'Schofel' brought by Jo on 5 February – to the uninitiated this is the old 'shove a ha'penny' and to clarify, this game we had to play with was made in Europe hence the name. We had a time of it trying to shove the replaced round wooden objects in a straight line and through the holes to score points!

At our 19 February meeting we were entertained by Carol Baker, a wonderful saxophonist who also played the clarinet and violin which was enjoyed by us all.

More birthdays celebrated and cake too!

Robert's talk on 4 March was most interesting. “Sleeping with the Enemy”, the story with slide photographs about Gabriella Bonheur Chanel the founder and namesake of the Chanel brand. She was by all accounts, quite a girl but in WWII sided with the enemy and their unsavoury aspects.

We also celebrated Lena' 90th with sherry and, yes, a cake!

On 18 March we will be celebrating our 60th Anniversary followed by our special outing on the Bluebell Railway for 1 April!

Watch out for these!

MAKE A WILL AND SUPPORT HOSPICE

as making or updating your will been on your to-do list? If you don’t have a will, or your circumstances have changed, you can get a professional will made, and support terminally ill people Ken and his girls. in your community, during St Catherine’s Make A Will Fortnight.

None of us like to think about the end of our life but having a professionally written will means that when the time comes, you can be confident that people you love, and causes important to you will be looked after.

When Wendy’s husband Ken died, she wanted to know that their girls would always be cared for so she used St Catherine’s Make A Will Fortnight. She said, “Immediately after Ken died I couldn’t remember anything. I lived off post-it notes, and even simple things weren’t possible. I’d never expected to lose my husband so soon or to become a lone parent, but I knew I had to do all I could to protect our girls. That meant sorting out my will.

After what happened to Ken, I wanted to know that if anything happened to me our girls would be looked after.

Writing my will, and acknowledging the huge change that had taken place, was so hard but St Catherine’s and a local solicitor made the process easy, and I felt comforted that I’d done it afterwards.”

For two weeks in May (11 to 22 May 2020), carefully selected solicitors across Sussex and Surrey are generously giving up their time and expertise in return for a donation to St Catherine’s.

Suggested donations are: • £120 for a single will • £180 for a joint will Your donation will help provide hospice care for people in your community.

When making your will there’s no obligation to

include a gift to St Catherine’s, but any gift, big or small, is a wonderful way to make sure your care for your loved ones and local community will live on.

Gifts left in wills to St Catherine’s fund the care of one in four hospice patients so they make a huge difference. Andy Perry, Legacy Officer at St Catherine's said, "Currently our hospice isn’t able to help everyone locally who needs our support, but in the future, we want to make sure no one faces death and loss alone. If you include a gift in your will, you’ll take us closer to helping more people in your community.”

For full details and a list of solicitors taking part, please visit www.stch.org.uk/mawf or contact Andy Perry on: 01293 447369, or andyperry@stch.org.uk.

Appointments are limited and must be booked by Thursday 7 May 2020.

RECIPE

BEEF RENDANG Preparation time: 40 mins Cooking time: 2 and a half hours Serves: 6+ fkdobafbkqp=

3 tbsp vegetable oil 2kg beef shin or skirt, cut into bite-sized chunks 2 lemongrass stalks, bruised 2 x 400ml cans coconut milk 4 tbsp unsweetened desiccated coconut 2 kaffir lime leaves, torn 1 Beef stock cube 2 tbsp tamarind paste 1 tsp sugar Âź tsp salt For the paste 1/2 - 3 chillies chopped (depending on taste)

6-8 baby shallots 2 inch / 5cm piece ginger, chopped three cloves garlic jbqela For the paste, place all paste ingredients into a small food processor and blitz until smooth.

Heat the oil in a heavy-based flameproof casserole dish or large saucepan. Fry the paste for 5-10 minutes until golden. Add the beef chunks and the lemongrass and mix well. Once the beef has coloured, add the coconut milk plus 250ml water. Bring to the boil, then lower to a very low simmer, uncovered for 2 hours. Stir occasionally to prevent the rendang sticking, and more often towards the end.

Towards the end of the cooking time toast the coconut in a frying pan on a low heat for 5-7 mins until golden brown. Set aside to cool.

Using a blender, coarsely blend it to finer pieces â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but not too fine. Put to one side.

After 2 hrs, add the coconut, kaffir lime leaves, stock cube, tamarind paste, sugar and salt to the pan. Stir well and simmer for 30 minutes.

The meat should be tender and falling apart when touched.

Serve with rice and green salad.

HORSHAM DISTRICT LOCAL PLAN

CONSULTATION DEADLINE IMMINENT

H

orsham District Council is required by Government to provide for an unprecedented increase in the number of homes in the District. This is a huge challenge for the Council and it urges all residents to read the development options and have their say. The purpose of the Draft Local Plan is to guide future developments in the Horsham District until 2036.

None of the sites in the draft Local Plan has been selected by the Council. The document looks at potential sites that have been put forward by developers and assessed by Horsham District Council for suitability. There are a number of potential sites listed in the document, but it is anticipated that only some of these will ultimately be allocated for development.

The decisions of the Council on sites to be allocated will depend in part on the responses it receives during this consultation.

The site assessments have been published so that residents can read about the possible options, see how they have been assessed and give their feedback.

The public consultation on the Horsham District Draft Local Plan (Regulation 2018) is now open and ends at 5pm on 30 March 2020.

Cllr Claire Vickers, Horsham District Council Cabinet Member for Planning commented, “Many thanks to all of you who have already given feedback on the draft Local Plan.

“Our public consultation is now half way through and I urge everybody to continue to give us their feedback on the options put forward by developers.

“I wish to emphasize that although potential sites are listed in the draft

22

APRIL 2020

consultation document, no choices have yet been made. The decisions of the Council on the sites to eventually be allocated will depend on the feedback we receive during this consultation.

“The Local Plan will help ensure that any developments are in suitable locations, helping the crucial delivery of local job opportunities and are set out in the Plan with contributions from developers to provide community infrastructure and upgrade transport links.

“Failure to produce a Local Plan will put these vital elements in jeopardy and leave us exposed to unacceptable developments in totally unsuitable locations which none of us want.”

Details about the Local Plan review process and timetable is available online now, including a video introducing the Local Plan process.

Supporting background documents will also be published on this website, including a Sustainability Appraisal (which considers what the environmental, social and economic effects would be) and an Infrastructure Delivery Plan (which considers what infrastructure will be needed to deliver growth).

For more information and to have your say visit www.horsham.gov.uk/localplanreview All responses should be made on the official form and returned by 5pm on Monday 30 March 2020. Call 01403 215100.

Copies of the Draft Local Plan can also be viewed at the Council offices, Parkside, Chart Way, Horsham, RH12 1RL (between 9 am and 5 pm on weekdays), and in all District libraries during normal opening hours. A copy of the Draft Local Plan has also been sent to every Parish Council in the District.

DISASTER PREPPING

BE PREPARED...BUT DON’T PANIC

Z

ombie apocalypse movies are perennially popular. Human beings love to imagine how we might survive after a global disaster.

Recent flooding and the coronavirus have prompted an interest in ‘prepping’, as in ‘prepping for disaster’. Preppers have historically been cast alongside conspiracy theorists, and American survivalists, who build bunkers, live ‘off-grid’ and are scarier than any imaginary zombie.

As flooding and extreme weather become ‘normal’ events in the UK, and every year seems to bring a new pandemic threat it’s easy to see why people feel helpless, and why ‘prepping’ becomes seductive. Should we prepare for imminent disaster?

The answer isn’t a straightforward yes or no. In this country we are fortunate that food is plentiful. However, food is supplied on a ‘just-in-time’ basis, using predictions based on the public’s past shopping habits.

If everyone shops normally, supply and demand remain balanced, but if large numbers of people suddenly panic-buy more than usual to stockpile food, shelves are stripped bare pretty quickly.

It makes sense to be aware of this and to think about how we might manage if there was a temporary hiccup in our own food supply chain, perhaps because poor weather or flooding prevents us from accessing shops, or because we’re confined to our home through illness or quarantine.

It does no harm to plan how we might be more self-reliant for a week or so, and to make sure that we have a basic emergency store cupboard. I would advise against specialist emergency food packs you see advertised. They are expensive, and freezedried food tastes like garden mulch. A few

28

APRIL 2020

extra tins in your weekly shop is easy for most people to achieve. Remember, in most instances you will already have food in, which can be used up first.

Useful items for an emergency store cupboard: tinned meats, tinned vegetables, tinned beans, pulses and chickpeas, tinned soups and packet soups, tinned fruit, a large bag of rice, a large bag of porridge oats, cooking oil, salt, honey, long-life milk, longlife orange juice, packs of cereal, cereal and protein bars, dried fruit. If you live in an area where flooding and therefore water contamination is likely allow 2 litres of bottled water per person per day for drinking and cooking.

A simple emergency store cupboard can be built up over a couple of months quite easily by adding a few extras into your weekly shop.

A can opener is essential. Torches, batteries, and a camping stove insure against loss of electricity, and loo roll, bleach, hand sanitiser, paracetamol, ibuprofen, plasters and disinfectant are useful health and medical items.

If you live in a flood zone, make sure your supplies are stored high up. Use a verminproof storage box in the coolest place possible, and every so often move items out into your regular cupboards, and replace them, to make sure that nothing goes beyond its sell-by date.

One last thing. We all have important documents filed away such as birth certificates, passports, insurance documents and house deeds. Ideally these should be stored in a fire and waterproof deed box to protect them.

A little thought and preparation goes a long way. No bunker required! Clare Becker

uinea pigs can make great children’s pets so knowing how to choose the most suitable guinea pig for your family is very important.

Guinea pigs are very sociable animals so should not be kept on their own. They can be kept in single sex groups, pairs (a male and female) or in a harem (one male with multiple females).

It is wise to do a little research into where you are going to buy your guinea pig, most reputable breeders will be happy for you to visit the litter before buying and this opportunity can be used to see the mother and littermates together. It is also a good time to question the breeder on the health of the parents and the current feeding regimes.

Things to look out for: • The guinea pig should be bright and alert with no discharge from the nose, the eyes or around the mouth.

• The front teeth should be well opposed and not overgrown.

• There should be no hair loss or dandruff.

• Watch the guinea pigs walking around the cage, they should be interested and show no signs of limping.

• The rear should be clean with no urine or faecal staining and the feet should be pink with no ulceration.

• Check whether there is a returns policy and how long it lasts for.

Once you have chosen your new guinea pig it is wise to bring him/her into the vets for a full check over and to answer any questions you may have. Tel: 01403 791011. www.maltmancosham.co.uk Please mention SOUTHWATER Life when responding to adverts

GARDEN VIEW

CONTAINER-GROWN FRUIT

A

pril is the perfect month for planting container-grown fruit trees and bushes. Even if your garden space is limited you can still grow fruit trees and bushes. You can even grow them in containers on a balcony.

The trick is to read the label. Look for dwarf varieties that won’t grow too large for your pot or garden. It’s a good idea to buy self-fertile plants too, especially if you don’t live in an area where lots of people grow their own fruit.

Even on a small plot buy the biggest pot you can fit into the available space. Bigger pots hold more compost, so they contain more food, more water and more space for strong root growth. Make sure the pot has drainage holes and cover the base with drainage material. Handy hint – if wind is a problem on your site use heavy material like broken crockery or stones to add weight, whereas if you will need to be able to move the pot easily use polystyrene chunks, which are very lightweight.

Fill the container with a loam-based potting compost. Remove the tree or shrub from its original pot, spread the roots a little and plant it in the new container to the same depth. Water the compost well initially and then whenever the surface is dry.

If you want to plant your fruit tree in the garden dig a hole as deep as the root system, and about three times the width. Place the plant into the hole and refill it. Then firming the soil with your foot. If the tree is in an exposed area you might need to stake it.

Fruit is very easy to grow, and there are a huge variety of fruit trees or bushes to suit every garden size and aspect, so you’re bound to find the perfect plant for your space. Try:

Dwarf apple trees, which provide interest all year round as well as fruit in the autumn.

Any of the currants. Blackcurrants are particularly nice. They are low maintenance and great in jams and pies. They like a sunny spot and plenty of water Raspberries are lovely. They fruit in summer and like a sheltered sunny spot.

You buy raspberry canes rather than bushes. Look for a thorn-free variety.

Blueberries grow really well and are great for growing in a container because they like acid soil and in a container, this is easy to provide. Look for ericaceous compost which you should keep moist because like most soft fruits they are quite thirsty plants. Collect rainwater for the purpose as blueberries are not keen on tap water.

I like to grow strawberries in large hanging baskets to make the most of the space. They are easy to grow this way but make sure you keep them well fed with a high potash fertiliser as nutrients leach away from hanging baskets very easily.

I protect all my container-grown soft fruit with netting my garden birds tend to view my patio display as a rolling all-season buffet laid on especially for their benefit.

Happy gardening. Rachael Leverton
