It’s back to school for many, some are starting university, college courses and new jobs. I quite enjoy settling back into a new autumn routine. Don’t get me wrong, I love the first few days of the summer holidays, and not having to do the groundhog day packed lunch, but at the end of those 6 weeks, I’m quite ready for some daily structure again.

We’reenter.lucky

that both Southgate and Moreton Hall have fantastic community centres. Both centres have lots of events on all the time with something for everyone. The events are a great way to socialise in your local community, so if you haven’t used them for a while, why not take a look?

We hope you enjoy this issue, we’ve got all the usual local information, local businesses, news and events. Take care, and we’ll see you again in October.

Well, that’s the summer holidays over and done with! I feel like they’ve flown by.

event to top it all off. I have wrestled with overgrown trees, HGV routing, a local plan consultation as well as the normal day to day councillor duties. We have seen wonderful new post box toppers. Locally to me, I was happy to have attended and supported Sebert Woodstock, a perfect little festival for schoolchildren, and I went to several kids football team prize givings. It’s been a great summer, I hope everyone took time to be positive and rest before we’re all complaining it’s too cold again!

One of the first things I ever did in public life in Bury St Edmunds, even before being a councillor, was to secure funding for Moreton Hall community centre alongside then MP David Ruffley. That was over 10 years ago and funds were released as part of the building works to the east of the town quite recently. Whilst £200k may sound like a lot, it doesn’t go very far when undertaking big building projects, but people like Nigel at the community centre have been amazing and we saw opportunities to stretch the money with involvement from

Sometimes, whilst obviously necessary, it’s a long and arduous task to get some work completed. It’s very frustrating. One such task was some damage to bus stops in Moreton Hall. The site at Mount Rd took several months for officers to sign off renovation works following graffiti, dirt build up and physical damage, but we got it over the line in the end and works completed by contractors Exturniture have fixed it up. I am working on other stops as we continue to promote public transit.

We have had unprecedentedansummer and there has been far too much going on to write individually here. Whilst we have had the worries of drought and unbearable heat, I hope most of us have had a chance to enjoy some sun, too. There was a huge amount of activity going on. We funded free places AbbeycroftthroughLeisure and lots of local of families were able to enjoy time together and hopefully experiences some new sports. Abbey 1000 held further celebrations and we saw a summer evening

SUMMER MISCELLANY

Suffolk Libraries. In August, we were incredibly proud to have opened the first new library in Suffolk for 10 years, right here in Moreton Hall. It shows real commitment in funding civic facilities from SCC. I signed up for a card - if you already have a library card you can use it here, otherwise it’s really easy to get signed up.

runaway climate warming (remember our record heatwave in July?) and biodiversity loss (one in 7 species is at risk of extinction in the next 5 to 10 years in the UK) and human responses to stop the decline have been woefully inadequate so far– with targets missed at both the international and national levels. Locally, we want to understand better what is being lost so we can act to prevent it.

It might seem a long way off now but Bury Water Meadows Group’s first ever BioBlitz - a stocktake of living speciestook place on Friday May 20th and Saturday 21st, as part of this year’s Abbey 1000 celebrations. Three schools took part on the FridayGuildhall Feoffment, Westley Middle and Priory - and on Saturday we welcomed the general public. whichleafHighlightswildlifeourmoths.andspecies336verified,and500provedearlyonprogrammefurtheractivitiesandparticipantsGardenstheAtandmany-CranklestheprecinctamateursconservationistsSpecialistandkeensurveyedtheabbey-theAbbeyGardens,GreatChurchyard,theandNoMansMeadowfindingandrecordingasspeciesofplant,animalfungusaspossible.our‘BioBlitzHubzone’byplayareaintheAbbeythespecialistshelpedwithidentificationtherewerestallshostingforchildrenandinformation.AofguidedwalksSaturday,startingwithanmorningbirdwalk,verypopular.Welloverrecordswerecollected,withsomestilltobetheserepresentaboutspecies,including18ofspider,36ofbirds23ofbutterfliesandIt’safantasticstarttobiologicalrecordingoftheofBuryStEdmunds.includedanAlderbeetle(Agelasticaalni)wasonceclassedas

ABBEY 1000 BIOBLITZ, MAY 2022

‘Extinct’ in the UK but is now considered ‘Insufficiently Known’basically an indication of how little is known about some species groups, even in the UK which is among the most thoroughly studied parts of the world. And the rather handsome Wasp Beetle (Clytus arietus), which mimics wasps to avoid being eaten. Bird highlights included a Linnet during the bird walk through No Mans Meadow alongside the river Linnet and a Reed bunting - a bird species not previously noted by the regular BWMG surveyors. Notable plants were Wild Clary (Salvia verbenaca) which is found in the Abbey gardens and Black Spleenwort (Asplenium adiantumnigrum), a kind of fern, growing on the Abbey ruins.

The BioBlitz was a major event for BWMG, which took a lot of planning and volunteer-hours and we all had well-earned breaks afterwards. A Town Council grant means we can run a BioBlitz in subsequent years, and we plan to do so; to boost our biodiversity monitoring work, but just as importantly, as a great way of engaging with schools and the public on the beauty and infinite variety of Bury’s natural environment.

One of the early parents Erica Short started going to Mother and Toddler in 1979 with her daughter Amy who was 9 months old, then daughter Lucy after she was born in 1983.

“I do not want it to end. I am physically stronger. Connecting with nature and people in a safe space has helped me broaden my boundaries and taught me that everyone has something to offer and something to strive for, even me.”

By using meaningful work such as conservation of natural woodlands these women benefit from the healing power of nature. The woods and nature provide the safe space which, for a few hours each week, give these women the time to let their minds be freer, banish negative thoughts and leave trauma behind. They are working towards the preservation of natural woodlands, but they are working on themselves too. They travel on what at times is a painful and difficult road as week by week their wellbeing and mental health improves.

Each story is different. Some are faced with the pressures of looking after elderly and ill parents while balancing the responsibilities of teenagers. The only time away, the only time to be is in the woods – something to look forward to every week. “A little bit of space to

This is a quote from Sally who attended the Women’s Woodland Wellbeing programme held by Green Light Trust in Frithy Wood, Suffolk. A women’s only course supports women who are moving on after living with an abusive partner, are in recovery from substance addiction or who have poor mental health and wellbeing.

look after me and my wellbeing before returning to the unrelenting pressures of daily life” said Pippa.

Whilst Ann, a professional in the mental health arena had been so busy helping others with their wellbeing and had referred others onto Green Light courses she had neglected her own trauma. Abused as a young woman, she had left it and not come to terms with the abuse but over time it had gnawed away inside. Ann through The Green Light Trust has been able to gain valuable selfconfidence week by week and is now making the first steps in managing the trauma, so its impacts are not so over whelming.

The anecdotal feedback from Green Light Trust participants is incredible. 85% of those participants who complete a Green Light Trust course continue to engage and develop, coming back and joining us on another course, whilst others feel enabled to go out and continue their

Being out in the woods makes us feel better: it is restorative for the individual, but it benefits wider society and the natural environment too. On balance it is the individuals who we support that sum it up best in their own words. Jessie’s story makes it clear why the women’s woodland wellbeing course is effective, “I have made friends. Connected with both people and nature and realised that other people do enjoy having me around. I have been accepted for being me.”

More transparency for Charities

If you are involved in the numerous local charities around Moreton Hall, as well as the wider Bury St Edmunds district, then you may be interested in the consultation which has been launched by the Charity Commission, regarding changes to the annual return.

Megan Turner

If you have any questions regarding annual returns, please get in touch with us at Skyliner Way here at Moreton Hall, or contact us through our website www.whitingsllp.co.uk.

There are a number of new questions set to be added to the annual return, taking the total from 36 to 52, although only 32 will be compulsory.

The aim of the additional questions is to make the annual return more comprehensive, by collecting information around your charity’s income sources, payroll costs in the sector and different roles and responsibilities.

The changes apply to all registered charities in England and Wales with an income of over £10,000, as well as all Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs) for financial years starting on or after January 1, 2023.

The consultation period will close on September 1, 2022, so please visit the Charity Commission website for further information or to have your say.

For every day, month, year that passes the value of the Museum is appreciated more. The void of the historical sacrifice made back in the 1940’s to the memories continuing today, especially by veteran’s families is growing.

We continue with our Sunday opening (10.00 – 16.00). This month our Big event is over the weekend Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th where we will be open BOTH DAYS for the airfields ‘North Weald Marshallers’ Gathering Of Aircraft.

Thank you Graham and Crew - as the Museum continues to attract visitors from near and far.

Rougham Control Tower Aviation Museum

“A fabulous July is coming to an end, it started with “Echoes” 2022, which turned out to be better than we could have hoped. Planning for ‘23 is already in full swing.

We hired out the Museum to Karen for her “special” Birthday which was a 1940’s themed party. Everyone wore period costume –uniform’s and flowing dresses, a 40’s dance band and singer entertained plus a display of military vehicles created a great atmosphere. A fabulous day was had by all, with myself, Wendy, Paul, Vince and Jo helping.

I had the pleasure of showing two veteran’s families around the site. Vince Woska, son of John (Jack) Woska, of “Ice Cold Katie” 332nd Sqdn and Perry and Tracy Ward plus Georgiana, nephew of S/S Paul Pearson, gunner on “ Frenesi” 333rd Sqdn. I hope they all enjoyed their visits and left with fond memories.

Attendance for July was low to start, with the weather being hot people tend to head for the beach, but a weekend attendance saw 61 members of the public through the gates. These numbers have continued to increase with two August Sundays both exceeding 90 visitors.

Chairman Graham Sage recently wrote the following – his ‘take’ on how the Museum is progressing and providing a very special experience to our visitors.

For our details please refer to our website: www.rctam94th.co.uk E-mail info@rctam94th.co.uk Mobile 07931 971771

Please come along on any Sunday and enjoy the history of this amazing place. Thank you to all who help with the Museum and to all the visitors for coming.”

Two final dates for your Sundaydiaries: 16th October will be the final open day of the season (sadly).

We also extend a very walm welcome to the Light Aircraft Association with their ‘meet the LAA’ trailer. If you have ever considered building a ‘plane or owning one these are the people to talk too. LX Avionics (sponsor of the LAA) are bringing a display of modern cockpit electronics, well worth seeing some of the latest technology available. If you are looking for that ‘special’ birthday (or even Christmas) present why not call into Skyward Flight Training and purchase a ‘Trial Lesson’. They offer a variety of ‘Pilot Experiences’ – will you get the ‘bug’ to fly, is it on your bucket list? Drop in to see them.

Summer Success

Subject to our ‘British Weather’ being kind, we are hoping for aircraft visiting from all points of the country (and possibly from abroad). Please join us to enjoy getting ‘up close and personal’ both to the aircraft and to the pilot’s – they love to talk about their ‘planes! Burger’s, donut’s, ice-creams, aviation books & models will be available, together with other exhibitors. Last year our Saturday attendance was 96 visiting aircraft – can this be beaten this year? Maybe the Avro Anson that was so popular last year will make a return appearance – watch the sky’s over Bury to see!

Renewable energy sources: Nuclear, Hydropower, Wind, Geothermal, Solar, Biomass 4-6g CO₂e / kWh

THIS SEPTEMBER WE ASK THE QUESTION, HOW GREEN ARE ELECTRIC CARS? ecofrenzy15 @ecofrenzy /ecofrenzy

Remember our mantra at Ecofrenzy - a lot of little actions add up to a big action.

Natural Gas – 350g CO₂e / kWh

On average a car running on diesel emits 200g CO₂ per mile, whereas an electric car has a CO₂ footprint of 67g per mile. On the

We have loads more ideas at ecofrenzy.com to help our wonderful world.

Petroleum – 320g CO₂e / kWh

So far we have looked at the CO₂ emissions when running an electric car, but what about the embedded energy in the car itself. This is the combination of energy required to source all the building blocks of the car, the manufacturing process, the transport process and the marketing of the vehicle. The basic car manufacture is similar between electric and diesel cars but there is a huge discrepancy when it comes to making batteries. Electric car batteries require a lot of energy to manufacture and can themselves represent a CO₂ imprint of many tonnes dependent on size of battery. This has the effect of reducing the green credentials of an electric car.

The overall level of this imprint depends on the combination of energy sources to generate the electricity.

However, we at Ecofrenzy believe that the UK is on the right road with the drive towards electric vehicles, so buckle up and enjoy the journey. Finally make sure you take all the factors mentioned in the last 3 articles into account before choosing your vehicle. In summary these were, cost of car, charging batteries, batteries, range, green credentials.

It’s only 8 years before there is a complete ban on selling new petrol and diesel cars. That’s not long to make sure we have the infrastructure in place to handle such a huge increase of electric cars. Sometimes great ideas from Governments do not always follow the desired path and I fear this is another of those aspirations. Hopefully my cynicism will be aptly knocked for six.

EcoFrenzy is a not-for-proﬁt organisation founded by Tony Whittingham. If you have any queries please visit www.ecofrenzy.com/contact-us or email tony@ecofrenzy.com

If for example you live in Australia, India, China or Russia where electricity production is highly dependent on coal, then the environmental benefits of running an electric car are drastically worse than running the same car in countries such as Sweden, Iceland and Norway where most of the electricity is produced from renewable sources. UK is somewhere in the middle but we are one of the leaders in the world for new renewable energy production and so the situation can only improve.

Here is a quick CO₂ emissions comparison between running an electric car and a diesel car in UK.

You may often hear people say that electric cars produce zero greenhouse gas emissions from the tailpipe. Yes, that is absolutely true, but the electricity to charge the battery has to come from somewhere and generating electricity has its own greenhouse gas imprint.

face of it very good, but there is another factor that we need to take into account before we break open the champagne bottles.

This means that the more the dependence on fossil fuel sources such as coal for electricity production, the less the benefit to reducing CO₂ emissions when running an electric car in that country.

This, our third and final article on electric cars will look at their green credentials. As with so many other points associated with electric vehicles this is complicated, but we will attempt to simplify it for you.

In order of carbon dioxide emissions per Kilo Watt Hour of electricity generated for various energy sources see below Coal – 950g CO₂e / kWh

This givesillustrationanindication of CO₂ emissions taking everything into account over a 7 year life cycle of a car. In UK the big gains in CO₂ reduction when driving your car are offset to some degree by the large CO₂ imprint from embedded energy.

I don’t know about you, but I love a good comeback. The kind that makes you think “I wish I’d said that!” However, good comebacks often put people down. So, we laugh at their cleverness, whilst feeling guilty for doing so.

But he needn’t have worried, for his father spots him on the horizon and runs out to him, throws his arms around him, and kisses him. The son tries to apologise, but his dad is too busy celebrating to listen. Instead of giving him the cold shoulder, his father commands his servants to bring new clothes for his son and to organise a party.

But the other day, I came across a wonderful comeback that was uplifting: The Parable of the Prodigal Son.

In Jesus’ story, a young man impudently demands that his father gives him his inheritance up-front. He then journeys to a distant land, where he squanders his wealth on ‘wild living’. But eventually his money and his friends run out. And so, he gradually comes to his senses and decides to return to his father. But as he makes the long journey home, the young

Mae West was a 20th century Hollywood actress who was famous for her great comebacks. She was once in court before a judge, who became irritated with her condescending one-liners. Eventually the judge said to her “Miss West, are you trying to show contempt for this court?” “No, your honour”, she replied, “I’m trying to conceal it”.

The point of Jesus’ story is that this is how our Heavenly Father feels about us, no matter how far we’ve strayed from him. We all make selfcentred choices that create a distance between us and God.

I don’t know where you stand with God right now, but I do know that if you ever decide to return to him, God will give you a wonderful welcome.

One way back to God, is through Back to Church Sunday. This year, it’s happening on the 18th September, at Southgate Church. A church where visitors are always welcomed. Do think about coming. It could be your greatest ever comeback.

I Love a Good Comeback

But unlike us, God doesn’t bear grudges and is always ready to welcome us back with open arms. That is what Jesus was doing on the cross.

The shoulders pay a massive role in building up POWER into the backswing. Pay attention however to where YOUR shoulders STOP turning, this indicates the top of YOUR backswing.

BODY FIRST

62 | SEPTEMBER 2022

This point is far enough for you to GENERATE and USE the power you have built up, remember you have to be effective from this position and create GOOD STRIKES. Don’t worry if the backswing looks SHORT, there are some amazing players that look this way and they still hit it great distances.

Getting your left shoulder working up and your chest/body opening is a great feeling to have when hitting driver. This move through impact encourages more of an upward strike with driver through impact, giving us a better launch on the ball. Better launch angles and a solid strike will GAIN YOU DISTANCE!!

As I write this the final event on the PGA Tour is being played and we are yet to know who will be the Fedex Cup champion. It has been another amazing year of golf on the PGA Tour, however it has been a little strange the last few months with all the LIV disputes.

I would like to see your body lead into the downswing with your hands following, from the top of your backswing allow the body to start turning while you feel that the hands have been left behind. A nice way to think about this is to keep your hands to the right side of your body early in the downswing, this can be monitored better in practice from a front on position like in the photo. This movement from the body means the larger muscle groups are doing more of the work, and controlling the arms and hands better into impact.
