BP Insurance Brokers A new location and new services to care for your insurance needs Arranging the right insurance is an essential part of simply getting on in life. The age of the internet has opened our eyes to all kinds of offers, comparisons and what might look like great deals – but at the end of the day it’s so much better to be able to talk to a person face to face. Insurance is for peace of mind, can you get that via e-mail contact alone?

It’s a philosophy that has served Lancashire firm BP Insurance Brokers well. With four branches across the area, they’ve been a familiar face on local high streets for over fifty years, and the company’s growth means that their Cleveleys office has now moved to new, larger premises.

independent broker, we’re not tied to any particular insurance provider, which means we can search the insurance market to find a policy that provides the right kind of cover but won’t break the bank. In particular, we currently have some very competitive motor premiums for experienced, mature drivers. Our new location is the perfect place for us to introduce customers to the insurance products we have available, whilst offering an even higher level of service.”

But then he has just got a fantastic deal on his car insurance.

BP Insurance Brokers’ new office is just a few doors up the road from the previous Cleveleys site, at Shadow House, 164-166 Victoria Road West, FY5 3NE, and will offer all the services customers are used to.

Branch manager David Southern explains: “We’re always looking Call 01253 863636, email for useful services we can offer cleveleys@bpib.co.uk or visit our customers, such as specialist www.bpib.co.uk for more 148 Victoria Road West | Cleveleys | FY5 3NE motor policies and competitive details.

Funeral Planner of the year J T Byrne Funeral Directors named regional Funeral Planner of the Year and received a nomination within the top 3 in the country.

T

hornton-Cleveleys and Fleetwood funeral director J T Byrne Funeral Directors has been named the best mid-sized funeral planner in the West Lancashire & Merseyside area and also named within the top 3 in the country at 2015’s Funeral Planner of the Year awards.

The win came during a competitive year. Run by market leading funeral plan provider Golden Charter, the awards are the biggest gathering of independent funeral directors in the UK, with this year’s event the largest ever held.

The funeral director’s John Byrne said: “We are delighted to have won this prestigious award for the fourth year running. This reflects upon the support we receive from the local community. We are proud to be at the forefront of helping families at their time of need and providing Golden Charter funeral plans.

J T Byrne are a family business supporting families.

Ronnie Wayte, Golden Charter’s Chief Executive, said: “In their 22nd year the awards are more competitive than ever before, with funeral plans continuing to grow in popularity. This award is well earned proof that J T Byrne Funeral Directors has reached a remarkable standard.”

The Funeral Planner of the Year Awards focus on the funeral planning achievements of independent funeral directors, who make up a growing majority of the funeral industry. With recent Mintel figures showing that the average price of funerals has increased 88% in the past ten years to £3,609, more people are choosing to use pre-paid funeral plans to freeze the cost of the funeral director’s services at today’s prices.

A funeral plan from your SAVE local independent upto funeral director makes £465 perfect sense With a Golden Charter funeral plan you’ll benefit from: • Protection against rising funeral costs • Reassurance for your family – no uncertainty or difficult decisions • Complete flexibility to choose the funeral you want • Guaranteed acceptance

Schoolchildren bury treasure beneath new sea defences

A

time capsule has been buried underneath the new sea defences at Rossall.

Pupils from Northfold Primary School in Thornton Cleveleys were inspired to fill the capsule following a trip to see the defences being built, leaving a lasting legacy for a future generation to discover.

Wyre Council is replacing two kilometres of defences from Rossall Hospital to Rossall Point in a £63m coastal defence scheme that will protect 7,500 properties from the risk of flooding. The capsule was buried below what will be the new promenade, which is due to be completed in November 2017.

Councilor Roger Berry, Cabinet member with responsibility for sea defences at Wyre Council, said: “The new seawall is vital for the protection of our residents in Fleetwood and their homes and businesses. From the outset they have supported the scheme, contributed to its funding and played their part in designing its features.

“It is therefore appropriate that our younger generation are placing a time capsule underneath the wall to record our lives as this seawall is built to protect future generations.”

Items inside the time capsule include photos and mementos, such as newspapers and currency, to illustrate daily life now alongside facts about the children and messages to the future. Views about current hot topics such as the EU referendum and climate change were written about and questions have been put to would be future readers.

as well as Northfold C.P. School and the surrounding area as it is in 2016.

“Their hope is for the capsule to remain buried for a very long time before at last being unearthed for a future generation to muse and ponder over. What an amazing discovery that would surely be!”

Simon Barker, Project Director at Balfour Beatty, main contractor for the sea defences, said: “We were really pleased to welcome the youngsters of Northfield Primary School to the Rossall site this week. Through our work with the school the children have been able to learn about the role of sea defences in protecting homes and businesses across Lancashire.

“We hope they will be able to share their experience with their families, and that some of these budding engineers will be inspired to follow a career in engineering.”

Air and water-tight, the time capsule is expected to remain buried for at least a hundred years, the lifespan of the new sea defences.

325,000 tonnes of rock armour are being used to create the base of the defences, to weather the harsh conditions on this exposed part of the coastline and allow the beach to build up in the area.

Between the rock revetment and the promenade, specially manufactured precast concrete is being used to form a stepped revetment to break the waves. The promenade will look similar in design to Cleveleys.

James Rochester, Class 6 teacher at Northfold Primary School, said: “Class 6 have been learning about how coastlines change over time, so visiting Rossall provided amazing first hand insight and the chance to observe the defences gradually taking shape was fascinating.

To date around 166,000 tonnes of rock have been placed in both the lower revetment and groynes.

1,676 linear metres of steel piles have been installed, over 700 precast concrete units including access steps, wave walls, rear walls and revetment units are in place and 241,000 tonnes of rock have been imported.

“Not only have the children benefited from consolidating their class based learning with a real life experience but they’ve had an opportunity to leave a lasting legacy and footprint about their own lives,

A summer of family fun at Wyre’s theatres

I

t’s almost the summer holidays, luckily there are some great kids shows and activities coming up at Thornton Little Theatre and Marine Hall, Fleetwood.

Kicking off the summer is the hilarious adaptation of Goldilocks and the Three Bears at Thornton Little Theatre. Come along on Friday 5 August as Magic Light Productions tell the story of how Goldilocks and the three bears save the future of her Grandma Gertie’s circus. Meanwhile in another part of the town the Evil Ringmaster of a rival circus is planning on kidnapping the bears and making his circus the best in town. There is only one person who can save the day - Goldilocks! However she is not alone, she is accompanied on her adventure by Silly Billy and some of their puppet friends. Will they save Gertie’s circus and defeat the Evil Ringmaster?

This new dazzling pantomime style show of this classic story is magically brought to life with amazing sets, stunning costumes, magic, illusion, special effects, song, dance, puppets and an abundance of laughter with a fabulous cast of characters. The show starts at 2pm and tickets are £8 each or £30 for a family of four.

Next up on Tuesday 23 August is Marty MacDonald’s Toy Machine at Marine Hall, Fleetwood, featuring the voice of CBeebies’ Justin Fletcher and Nicole Davis as Pongo the Pig and Molly-Moo the Cow. Everyone

at Marty MacDonald’s Farm is delighted with the special delivery that’s arrived – the toy machine that makes all of the toys in the world! But then they realise that Crafty the Crow has been up to mischief and it shouldn’t really be there at all. Worse still, the machine has stopped working, so they need to fix it before the Toymaker comes to get it back.

Join Marty, Sally the Scarecrow, Pongo the Pig, Molly-Moo the Cow and Sheena the Sheep in a fun, musical, interactive adventure to save the day, repair the toy machine and give the world back its toys.

With a colourful farmyard and host of lovable puppet characters, Marty MacDonald’s Toy Machine is a brand new family show particularly suitable for 2 – 7 year olds, from the team who brought you last year’s sell-out hit show Marty MacDonald’s Farm. The show starts at 2pm and tickets are £9 each.

As well as two great shows, this year for the first time ever, Marine Hall is looking for children to appear in their Christmas pantomime! Children aged between 7 and 16, boys and girls, who are all singing and dancing with lots of personality are invited to audition to join the chorus. The auditions will take place on Thursday 18 August at Marine Hall and the panto is on 8 – 11 December.

For more information on any of the shows or to book tickets call the Wyre Theatres box office on 01253 887693 or visit www.wyretheatres.co.uk
