localreach Street & Glastonbury Editorial julie@localreach.co.uk
From the editor Welcome to the November issue of Local Reach. Now the nights are drawing in, it feels like winter is well on its way, and Christmas will creep quickly upon us! At this time of year there is nothing like curling up in front of the fire with a good book (or a copy of Local Reach)! However, there is so much going on in our area that would be such a shame to miss out, e.g. local firework displays, charity events, clubs and of course Glastonbury Carnival! The lure of the fireplace now doesn’t seem so appealing! There is lots of news in this month’s issue, e.g. the RSPCA celebrating a local anniversary, and updates from many local clubs including Mendip Ramblers and Street Epilepsy Action Branch. There are garden tips from Martin Mudie plus suggestions of how you can get involved in the local community. If you are a local club or charity, don’t forget to send me your regular news so I can give you some free editorial in future issues – LocalReach is the ideal way to reach over 9,000 residents in Street, Glastonbury and the surrounding villages. LocalReach also offers competitive rates for local businesses who wish to advertise in the magazine – please get in touch if you would like to advertise your business in the December issue. The Editor. A6 2pp Landscape_Layout 1 06/03/2012 9:35am Page 1 11589-PKitchens The deadline for the December issue is 7th November

Cardboard couture comes to college cat walk Art and Design students at Strode College showed impressive skill and creativity in their first week at college, making cardboard couture costumes for the college catwalk. Students worked together in small groups to create sturdy but stylish cardboard costumes in just one and a half days before the project finale - a catwalk show in front of other students and staff. Some of the students created glamorous costumes such as Rio, Peacock, Bird of Paradise, Angel, Tribal Warrior Bird and Corpse Bride, while others went for a more humorous approach such as Roman Angel, Shakespearian Axeman and
Trojan Fish. All of the costumes showed a great deal of thought, imagination and skill. Duncan Cameron, Strode College’s Sculpture Teacher, said: “We always kick of the year with a project to warm up the students’ creativity after the summer holidays and to get them working together. They’ve shown great design and construction skills and created some fantastic costumes using only recycled cardboard, brown tape, paper and string. We’ve had a great time working with them - watching their ideas develop and their confidence grow. I think we’re in for a great year of art and design at Strode.
Citizenship project makes a difference to young people and the community A celebration was held at Strode Theatre recently to recognise the achievements of 33 young people from across the region who completed the National Citizen Service (NCS) programme with Strode College this summer. In front of an audience of family and friends, Strode
4
College Principal, James Staniforth, presented them with certificates for successfully completing the NCS programme. All those who took part in the four week course were aged 15 to 17. They enjoyed two weeks residential: one week of team building and outdoor activities
and one week learning how communities work; the third week was based at Strode College planning a social action project. They were guided on the course by local team leaders with experience as teachers, youth workers and careers advisors.

Musings from My Garden-By Martin Mudie November – a month of frosts, carnivals and fireworks. Here at Chateau Martini, all is calm. For now, in the autumn of my life I do not seek to do winter gardening, other than admiring the trees and shrubs that line the front path en route to my local coffee shop (Milk, no sugar- in Street an excellent destination). The Lovely Muriel hopes each year that, at last, I will spend a little less on the garden. Not a hope, dear! For, by using planters and containers, there are a few easy steps to enjoying a bit of colour in this time of the year. First, choose your container with care. Then select from a choice of shrubs either plain or variegated. Then add a few bulbs. which will provide a bit of green interest and flower in the spring. Happy Gardening

The Latest in Lens Technology By Adrian Springett The old days when the NHS offered basic spherical glass spectacle lenses to everyone has thankfully disappeared because it prevented the development of superior lens designs. The groundbreaking development of “Freeform” surfacing techniques has allowed lens manufacturer’s to produce the most sophisticated of lens designs with outstanding optical accuracy. Variable curves can be placed on one or both lens surfaces which enable thinner and flatter lenses to be produced regardless of which lens material is used. These digital lenses can be produced in both single vision or varifocal formats and can be designed for normal optical frames or in wrap around frames for sporting activities and fashion sunspectacles. In reality, this advanced technology allows lenses to be designed for the individual client, taking into account the shape of the chosen frame, the client’s prescription and their facial features
and posture. These tailor made lenses which are precision engineered with 3D digital surfacing, allow the lens manufacturer to control peripheral distortion and aberrations which are produced at the edges of a standard lens. These technological advances result in lenses which can provide the wearer with wider fields of clearer brighter vision compared to standard spectacle lenses. The advantages of “freeform” lenses may be appreciated by everyone but powerful more complex prescription wearers will benefit the most. A note of warning though: There are several parts involved in the production of a true “Freeform “lens. Trading Standards have not produced guidelines as to when the term “Freeform” can accurately be applied to a product and there is confusion within the optical industry. This has resulted in the benefits of “freeform” being misrepresented or over sold with some relatively basic lenses.

for wider, sharper fields of vision

What is the difference between Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas? By Mike Free Listed buildings If you live in a listed building you have to look after the building to ensure that none of the features are damaged of allowed tofall into dis-repair: failure to do so can envolve the Distict Council enforcing the work and charging you for it! If you wish to carry out any work o it you have to get LISTED BUILDING CONSENT from the District Council for which they make no charge. This can involve anything from demolition, rebuilding or extensions to new windows, exterior paint finishes and solar panels. All internal structural alterations also have to have permission and this can include anything from removing walls, fireplaces, decorative plaster work or timber. Some of these alterations can also include Planning Permission for which there is a fee to the Council and in all cases you will have to provide plans showing the work you want to carry out.
Conservation areas. If you home is in a conservation area, you are resticted in what you can do to the outside, usually at the front. The list of items covered by the rules have changed and now include new windows, chimneys, flues, painting and any alterations to the part of the property facing the public areas. As for Listed buildings above, some of these will only involve LISTED BUILDING CONSENT which SHOULD BE FREE others will involve PLANNING PERMISSION as before. If you require any advice on these matters, we will be able to help free of charge and if you then require our planning service, we will be pleased to help."

Do you want to make a difference in the community where you live or work? The Raising Aspirations programme has been designed by Somerset Community Foundation to help young people in Somerset develop self belief, confidence
and aspirational life goals to ultimately fulfil their potential. The Foundation is working in partnership with Crispin School on an exciting project in which young people are benefitting from one to one support given by members of the local community who have pledged their time and commitment. In the first year 37 mentors have been recruited, representing a range of backgrounds, interests and business experience.
We are now looking to recruit additional mentors for the new Year 7 intake. Face to face meetings take place 3 times a term, in the school, each session lasting for between 30 and 45 minutes. Giving up just a small amount of time can make the world of difference to a young person. If you would like to find out more, please contact Jocelyn Blacker on 01749 344949 or e-mail Jocelyn. blacker@somersetcf.org.uk
40th Anniversary Celebration This year Willcox Close in Glastonbury, one of Methodist Homes sheltered housing schemes, celebrates it’s 40th Anniversary. A recent event saw residents being joined by Senior Staff from MHA and former trustees. Everyone joined together in prayers and hymns of thanksgiving for the life of the Willcox Close community over the past four decades, and prayed for the continued support of residents and staff into the future.
A Hand in Need …help when you need it most
Decluttering (home or workplace) Proof Reading and Form Filling Post-Bereavement Paperwork
This was followed by the planting of a tree by Arthur Snook , who has lived at the scheme since 1995, and he paid his very personal gratitude for the support he has received in his time of living at Willcox Close. As the first drops of rain were felt everyone retired to the lounge for a buffet lunch that had been prepared earlier by a group of residents, where people shared fond memories of past times at Willcox Close.

Free Walkers raise £324.71 for baby charity Young people from Somerset Rural Youth Project’s National Citizen Service social action group helped to raise over £300 for Bliss, a charity that provides care and support for premature and sick babies. The young people organised and took part in a 10-mile walk along the Bridgwater-Taunton Canal, inviting family, friends and members of the community. The group came together, supported each other and displayed commitment and motivation to
their project. Supported by funds from 02 the Free Walkers designed and organised T-shirts, a banner and secured a range of fantastic prizes from local businesses in Bridgwater for a raffle. The Free Walkers held a refreshments and cake stall at the halfway point with kind permission from The Boat and Anchor. The event raised £324.71 in total. Youth Worker Julie Rickwood said: “It has been an absolute privilege to work with the Free
Walkers group. They have shown great attitude and dedication to their social action group for a charity which has touched members of the group in a significant way. They have bought together diverse members of the community to take part in a lovely activity raising a great sum of money for Bliss.”
Business clubs together to raise funds for Somerset youth charity
Clubbing together has benefitted a Somerset youth charity by more than £700. Bridgwater-based Chartered Financial Management held their inaugral golf day at Enmore Park Golf Club on Thursday, September 20, to raise funds for their chosen charity of 2012, Somerset Rural Youth Project. The event attracted 36 players and as well as a team competition there was also an individual competition to win the charity cup. The winner of this, Geoff Baker, also wins corporate hospitality to Bath Rugby on March 4 for four people and he gets to nominate a local charity for next year’s event as
part of his prize. Each player donated £10 to the charity and Chartered Financial Management agreed to match whatever was raised on the day. Organiser and director of Chartered Financial Management Jon Marshfield said: “We had a very successful day with guests enjoying a great day’s golf in splendid sunshine. They also took the opportunity to embrace fundraising for SRYP. We are delighted to match the £370 raised on the day to give a total of £740 for the charity.” For more information on SRYP contact 01278 722100.
