to your Thornton Cleveleys Magazine. O come all ye faithful into the last edition of the year, Christmas is upon us once again! A special time to touch base and spend time with family and friends while enjoying the festive season. There are many events in the what’s on section once again to keep you busy over this period and into the New Year…. We’ve had a fantastic year helping 100’s of local businesses showcase themselves to our readers, as well as supporting as many local events and most of all helping charity events and causes raise £1000’s. LINK-MAG is more than just local directory and free community magazine, it’s an integral part of the local community. Myself and the team here at LINK-MAG would like to wish you a brilliant Christmas and New Year and a special thank you for supporting us over the last 5+years, we’re run by independent local people and give back to the community on many occasions personally. We take a break over Christmas so our next edition will be our combined JAN/FEB issue out from mid January with 12th Dec deadline for all events up to and including Feb 2015 available online as well. Well done to last month’s winner: David Heaney for the Where Am I? Competition. £50 is on its way. Once again have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year, see you in 2015!

Daughter invests back into South Shore
Lisa Brownless daughter of Larry & Jeannette Colino, who were licensed victualers in South Shore for many years, has made a return to invest in the area she grew up. She has started up a new family run business with her son Ryan in property development, refurbishing property to a high standard for rental within the Blackpool area. Lisa also saw a niche in the market and decided to open up ‘Heaven An Hell’, a unique and exclusive adult store on Waterloo Road in South Shore. Due to the poor state of the economy you can find products in ‘Heaven An Hell’ up to 50% cheaper and for the same quality product compared to similar stores. With more styles available as well you will find something within Heaven An Hell to suit anybody’s budget. Heaven An Hell opened in August 2014, and has been very successful. They are expanding daily with new ranges of stock, Heaven An Hell Unique parties (unlike any other for any occasion), Birthday’s, Girls Nights In and Hen & Stag Parties.
Get 10% OFF when you call into ‘Heaven An Hell’, everyone is welcome within their relaxed and friendly environment. This is just the beginning for this Family Business, and won’t be the last you see of them, as expanding ‘Heaven An Hell’ to other locations within Blackpool and other areas is in the pipeline.

A different quality of care The team at Home Instead Senior Care in Blackpool, North Cleveleys and Fleetwood are passionate about providing care to its clients which not only improves the quality of their life but those of their families too. Owner Tara said, “We are passionate about providing the highest standard of person-centred care. Our ethos is simple – treat others as we would wish to be treated ourselves. In doing this we are improving our clients’ quality of life and helping them to remain living in their own homes.” Home Instead Senior Care specialises in providing care for older people in their own homes. The service is extremely flexible and ranges from help a few hours a day to 24 hour care. We believe that care can’t be delivered in a short, rushed visit so our care calls are of a minimum hour duration. Each and every one of our clients has a care plan tailored specifically to their own needs. Whether it’s a trip to the park for some fresh air, a visit to the hairdressers; some help around the house or assistance with shopping; right through to medication reminders and post-operative support or respite care we are here to help. We also provide a range of specialist services, which include
Alzheimer’s and dementia care, convalescence care and respite care. What’s more, we take time to carefully match our caregivers to clients so that they share common areas of interest and can form an immediate bond. We only employ the most caring, considerate and empathetic caregivers – people to whom making a difference to the lives of others is important. It is for this reason that we enjoy long-lasting relationships with our clients. Our caregivers are carefully selected, are CRB checked and have to provide six references Home Instead Senior Care are committed to making a difference, we regard it as a special privilege to look after people with love, care and compassion and we take our responsibilities very seriously indeed For more information on Home Instead Senior Care please call us on 01253 200770 or visit www. homeinstead.co.uk/ blackpoolandwyre

‘Sponsor A Sleeper To Fleetwood’ appeal Poulton and Wyre Railway Society work to restore railway line The Poulton & Wyre Railway are refurbishing the currently out of use railway line from Thornton to the Wyre Way as a tourist attraction and we need your help. As part of the wider project to reopen the entire line from Poulton to Fleetwood, the PWR intend to operate trains over a short section which we believe will lead to a full reinstatement of the railway to the port.
as well as tidying up the area around Hillylaid crossing. NPL Estates have also very kindly allowed us to store and carry out work to our locomotive on the Hillhouse site for a number of years for which we are very grateful. We have amassed lots of equipment over the last eight years and are now poised to move from being a static exhibit to an operating railway.
The infrastructure is in good condition requiring minimal work only. Much of this has already been carried out and we anticipate passenger trains running as early as 2016. These services would be limited to a couple of days a week through the tourist season and would be aimed primarily at families, walkers and those that would just like to ride on a train.
Our latest appeal “sponsor a sleeper to Fleetwood” will see the track between Thornton and the Cala Gran caravan park (Fleetwood) brought up to a good condition. Most of the track over this section was re-laid in the 1990s, leaving only three short older sections requiring attention. This was intended to be a member’s only appeal however; people from outside our group are keen to support us (including Link Magazine) and have doubled our first months target in two weeks. You can see a full explanation and details of how to donate at www.pwrs.org
The Poulton & Wyre Railway Society was formed in 2006 with the aim to reopen the railway for commuters and tourists. Since then we have been looking at various options with Network Rail, Lancashire County Council and Wyre borough council and while there is a desire to reopen the line as part of the national commuter network, it is just not possible at this point in time. The PWR will not however stand in the way of any national scheme to link Fleetwood to the network if funding became available and in fact will ensure that we hand back a fit for purpose operating railway to Network Rail. Our volunteers are currently refurbishing Thornton and Burn Naze stations to an operational standard, 46
We are always on the lookout for new volunteers, so if you feel this is the project for you then please get in touch by either visiting our website or calling into Thornton station on Wednesday and Saturday mornings. Check out the web site www.pwrs.org or ring 07801813531 for further information on donating

Local RSPCA news Can you offer a home to an animal?
Ebony was abandoned at the vets by her previous owner, they left her there to have an operation and never collected her. She is a sweet girl who can sometimes be shy so a quieter home would be better. She is thought to be 3- 5 years old, She is a very pretty cat who likes affection but sometimes just wants to lay in the sun and sleep. She is suitable to live with older children but no other animals. She could possibly live with another cat as long as it is a calm one. Marco was transferred to us from another Centre along with his 2 brothers. He is a young Degu. He is very friendly and likes being handled. He had to have his tail amputated but it doesn’t effect him. He loves his wheel and his treats. It is hoped he would be able to live with other degus but it would need to be another male and they would have to make sure they didn’t fight. Degus are £15.00 each to adopt and like to be active so need big cages. The Amazon Wishlist Christmas Tree Appeal, this year RSPCA are doing something extra special by having a Christmas Tree which has cards attached with wishlist items on. These are items from their Amazon wishlist online. You can choose a card from the tree and on it is the item you may wish to purchase for the Centre. You can then replace the card with a picture of your own pet or in memory of a previous pet if you wish. To view their wishlist online please visit http://tinyurl.com/bplrspcawishlist or pop down to the Centre to view the tree with the items on.
Local Volunteer Community Health Champions sought
Ebony
Shoe box appeal, they are appealing for shoe boxes with lots of cats, small animal toys and treats in. People decorate the shoe boxes for Christmas and fill them with toys and anything they think the animals could use at the Centre. There are drop off points all over Blackpool and at the Animal Centre in Stalmine. If people are wanting to know the drop off points they can then call us 01253 703000 to find out the nearest point to drop off for you. They hope to have the dog kennels ready early next year and still have lots of cats and small animals at the moment looking for homes. There are a lot of guinea pigs and the two Degus who have been here a while now. Further info at www.rspcablackpool.org.uk. RSPCA Longview Animal Centre, Old Toms Lane, Stalmine, Poulton-Le-Fydle, FY6 0JR. Opening times 11am-5pm Tue-Sun. Contact: 01253 703000, enquiries@rspcablackpool.org
A team of volunteer ‘Community Health Champions’ are being sought by NHS Fylde and Wyre Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG).
Continuing from the success of the previous recruitment campaign we are now looking for a second intake of volunteer ‘Community Health Champions’ to work on projects with NHS Fylde and Wyre Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). The CHC’s will act as a direct link between local communities and the CCG, helping to shape future services and improve existing ones. These volunteer roles provide an opportunity for local people to gain new knowledge & skills, but more importantly make a real difference within their community. Community Health Champions have the opportunity to make a substantial impact on the future of health care in Fylde and Wyre. Through sharing their own feedback and the experiences of the wider community, the CHC’s have the opportunity to tell the CCG what is working well and what services need to be improved. 48
Anyone living in the Fylde and Wyre area can apply for one of these roles. People living outside of the area who have a direct link to services delivered in Fylde and Wyre may also be considered. An already existing interest in health services is not necessarily essential. To find out more about this volunteer role then contact Christine Carty on 07460 131188, 01253 344398 or email ccg@rpotential.co.uk

Diary of a local Councillor Paul Galley is a Councillor for Anchorsholme in Blackpool and each month he writes a weekly diary of what he has been up to. Saturday: Today was a really brilliant start to the weekend. In the morning I planted hundreds of Daffodil bulbs with the lovely residents of Broadhurst Avenue and Denville Avenue on the large piece of grass there. We had so many volunteers and I was so grateful everyone was just brilliant. I then planted loads of bulbs in our half barrel planters along Denville Avenue leading up to Rockville so it will look lovely in the spring. I then popped over to Eastpines Park and I was lucky enough to speak to the tree gang from the council who have been busy cutting down the hedges on the Luton Road side of Eastpines Park. They are really great people who have worked very hard. Now, we have a clear line of sight into the park from Luton Road, and that includes the children’s play area. This is to try and curb the anti-social behaviour that have plagued the park over the summer months. It really opens the park up and makes it less easy for anyone up to no good as they will not like the open border and the ease for people to watch them. The next step we have planned is to install CCTV into the park and I should have some news on that soon, I’ve been working really hard behind the scenes on this and confident we should have it very very soon. Both Councillor Williams and myself believe this should be a community park where everyone feels safe using it and we are passionate we will not only crush the anti social behaviour but make the Park one of the nicest in the area. I will not let the minority ruin it for Anchorsholme’s residents. I also had a meeting with some residents who are having issues with parking near to their property and planted some bulbs on Denville Avenue. Sunday: Today with the help of the Girl Guides we planted hundreds of Daffodil bulbs around the Luton Road entrance of East Pines Park. They will look brilliant come next spring. I’d like to thank Willow’s Florist for kindly donating the bulbs, over all we planted around a thousand bulbs in this new garden area and in the spring we will plant lots of flowers in there to add lots of colour for the summer. Monday: What a fantastic day! I spent the entire day in Anchorsholme Park as United Utilities were hosting a open day. The idea of the day was to consult with local people about how they want to see Anchorsholme Park after United Utilities have finished their work in 2019. From the idea’s that we received from everyone who attended we are going to be drawing plans up to present to residents in a further consultation in January. Once the plans have been finalised we can put in a planning application in May and hold United Utilities to what they have promised us. Exciting times ahead! Tuesday: I have been promoted at the council and I now have a new very lengthy job title: Scrutiny Lead / Shadow Cabinet Member for Housing, Public Safety and Enforcement and Street Scene and the Environment. Yes it’s quite a mouth full! It means I
can question everything about public housing, crime and licensing in Blackpool so it’s a exciting time and I’m very keen to take our Anchorsholme values and put them into place in Blackpool. My first meeting was today and I chaired a meeting about the new Anti Social Behaviour Act that has come in. It’s a brilliant piece of legislation as it gives the police and the council lots of powers to deal with anti social behaviour issues. This year because of the anti social behaviour problems we have had in Eastpines Park, I’ve become something of an expert on ASB issues and I’ve read the new Act cover to cover. Sadly I don’t have the power to decide how it will be used but can offer advice on how it could be used, so I gave the council and the police lots of suggestions about its use in Park’s and the town centre and promenade of Blackpool. I really enjoyed myself, plus it was the first meeting I’ve ever chaired at Blackpool Council and I really enjoyed it, it was great knowing the Act inside out, it just shows how important doing your research is before these sort of meetings otherwise the “experts” will eat you for breakfast. Wednesday: This morning I hosted my regular bingo meeting at St Teresa’s and in the afternoon I worked on my recruitment business and some of the smaller council jobs that have come through. Thursday: Had a fantastic day today. Councillor Williams and myself met up with some brilliant residents who have all helped in the campaign to repair the road surface on Rockville Avenue. We had our photograph taken and it was just a wonderful occasion, three years worth of work resulting in a result that is great for the local people and Anchorsholme, I’m really proud of this one. Friday: Today I had a meeting about Eastpines Park and I’m delighted to confirm that because one of the trees in the Park needs to be cut down as it’s coming to the end of it’s life, we are to get a wood carver to cut the trunk in to an owl, it will be quite an icon for the area and very popular with everyone. Saturday: I rounded off the week pretty much as I started it! I was back in Eastpines Park. Today I was planting with the girl guides who have done us proud yet again. We managed to plant 600 daffodil bulbs. It’s going to look so stunning in the spring. A big thank you to the guides and their leaders who helped us no end and they have volunteered to help us plant all the perenial flowers we are getting for our new garden areas in the Park for the summer. By the time you read this it will be close to Christmas, so I would just like to finish by wishing you a very Merry Christmas and great 2015. Many thanks
Paul Galley

Wyre wins technology innovation award
Wyre Council has fought off international competition to win Technology Innovator of the Year in the KANA Customer Awards 2014 KANA provides customer service technology which is used by the council to manage contact from residents, recording all phone calls, emails, online forms and face-to-face visits and subsequent actions.
A judging panel of industry experts was impressed with the council’s website, which allows residents to report issues such as fly tipping and dog fouling online and plot the location on a map. Officers are then able to pick these reports up on mobile devices in the field and respond immediately, and Wyre is one of only a handful of local authorities in the country that maps them all online, showing where incidents are already being dealt with. The council was also praised for increasing the use of online services, shifting customers from expensive face-to-face and telephone channels. Councillor Peter Gibson, Leader of Wyre Council, said: ‘This award demonstrates that we are continually striving to improve services for residents. There are now more ways than ever to contact Wyre and getting in touch via the
website is increasingly popular, as it is quick and easy to do. Although online contact is the most cost effective way to operate, development of the website is not at the expense of traditional channels - it just means residents have more choice.’ Wyre took the Technology Innovator of the Year title with Elkjop Nordic, the largest consumer electronics retailer in the Nordic countries, highly commended. The prize includes $2000 worth of training and Wyre’s story will be showcased as best practice. Other award winners include BSkyB, Oxford City Council and Vistaprint. Residents can report everything from missed bins to benefits cheats, pay council tax and comment on planning applications plus much more at wyre.gov.uk
CAB celebrates Wyre launch with new volunteer appeal Citizens Advice workers this week renewed their appeal for more volunteers as local dignitaries gathered to add their seal of approval to the new CAB office for Wyre.
The office has been operating since late summer but this week, the Mayor and Mayoress, Cllr Ron Shewan and his wife Brenda declared it officially open. Cllr Shewan praised the volunteers who help run it and echoed the organisation’s appeal for even more local people to give some time to support the organisation’s work in the Borough. Just like every other CAB in the UK, it depends heavily on the work of volunteers and, while many have already signed up, more are still needed. Caroline Millington, the Advice Session Supervisor at the new office said: ‘Every volunteer will be given full training so people needn’t worry that they don’t have the experience. All they need is the will to help others and a little spare time that they can give up each week.’ The new office is funded by Wyre Borough Council with premises provided rent-free by Fleetwood Town Council at its Poulton Road offices. It is operated by Lancashire West CAB which, like all others around the country, is an independent registered charity funded mainly by Local Authorities and other bodies. It operates with around 30 paid staff and more than 100 volunteers, serving a population area of nearly 500,000 in Chorley, South Ribble and West Lancashire as well as Wyre. It has already been able to help many local people with outreach work around the borough but Town Council
Chair Terry Rogers said it will now be able to offer much needed help to very many more local residents: ‘The area has some of the most deprived wards in the whole of the North West so it will be a real benefit when there are full-time CAB advisers and volunteers on hand for them to talk to.’ Cllr Pete Murphy, Wyre Council’s Economy Portfolio Holder said: “This permanent CAB office is a great boost to the local residents, giving on-the-spot help and much needed face-to-face advice and no one could doubt how much the people of this area need such a facility. Of course, this is not just for Fleetwood residents but everyone in the borough.’ Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer at the Bureau can call 01772 425912, email volunteer@lw.cabnet.org. uk or call in to the Town Council office at 122, Poulton Road, Fleetwood. Among those attending the opening on behalf of Lancashire West CAB were Chair John Crompton, Vice Chair Tony Harrison and Chief Executive Diane Gradwell along with many other staff and volunteers.

We’re keen to have new digging members but you’d be welcome whatever skill you might be able to bring at whatever level. We’re fully insured and we provide basic training and equipment. We’re affiliated to the Council for British Archaeology and have strong links with local professionals in the field.
