Halle Family’s fight for a better life

This week...

From the editor The Hunter Region is full of interesting, inspiring people; so much so, I don’t think we’ll ever run out of stories to tell. Everyone has a story (whether they believe so or not), but some leave a longer-lasting impression than others.

This week’s cover story is one of them. Four-year-old Halle Lambert has a chromosomal disorder so rare, it’s known only as 5q14.3. This deletion is characterised by cognitive and developmental delay, inability to communicate through speech, and difficulties swallowing, among other things.

Her family’s strength in the face of this challenge floors me. As is often the case when sharing stories about seriously-ill children (and adults), I’m left wondering how their loved ones manage to put on a brave face each day and tackle the seemingly insurmountable. With little other choice, I suppose. It certainly puts my bad days into perspective.

Halle’s family is strong and supportive, but they need your help to make a real difference. Turn to page 18 to read on.

A gentle reminder to be kind to yourself at this time of year. With parties, end-of-year events, kids' activities, and, of course, Christmas itself, the pressure can build up. Don’t forget to take time out and remember the true meaning of it all.

news Council wins quarry case but issue far from over Paterson resident James Ashton is hopeful an historic NSW Land and Environment Court decision over unlawful operations at Martins Creek Quarry will attract more visitors to the village.

In October, Dungog council won a case against the quarry’s lessee, Daracon, after years of community concern around existing operations and expansion plans.

The judgement – the lengthiest in the court’s history – confirmed Daracon had largely acted unlawfully since its operatorship began in 2012 and ordered it to pay the council’s legal costs.

Daracon was also required to operate under an interim environmental management plan for the next three months, limiting start times and the number of

trucks loaded from the site.

From mid-January, the hard rock mining facility will then be expected to operate in accordance with original consent conditions issued by Dungog councillors in 1991, which reportedly approved a 300,000-tonne-per-annum, or 24 trucks per day, limit.

At the peak of its operatorship in 2014/15, Daracon’s extraction rates were believed to surpass 1.1 million.

Mr Ashton, who is secretary of the Martins Creek Quarry Action Group (MCQAG), believes the court decision will drastically improve village and rural amenity.

“Thanks to [this], Paterson is an even more beautiful day trip destination, owing to reduced heavy vehicle traffic,” he says.

Martins Creek Quarry Action Group secretary James Ashton at John Tucker Park in Paterson.

“I’d encourage Novocastrians to come out for a trip to this area; there is a lot to offer, whether it be a riverside picnic, canoeing or fishing in the Paterson River, or visiting the Paterson Historical Society.”

The MCQAG represents combined communities north-east of Maitland, such as Martins Creek, Paterson, Vacy, and Bolwarra

Heights. Its main concerns over Daracon’s existing operations and expansion plans included road and pedestrian safety issues from high volumes of heavy vehicle traffic through villages and activity centres, one-way bridges and schools, and the existing state of road infrastructure.

news Treacherous trek raises thousands They scrambled through some “horrendous” conditions in one of their toughest challenges yet.

A group of more than 30 adventurers faced temperatures ranging from 0 to 45 degrees, as well as 90% humidity, during a 12-day Borneo Coast to Coast for the Mark Hughes Foundation.

The trek saw participants follow in the footsteps of Australian prisoners of war (POWs) on the Sandakan Death March before tackling Mount Kinabalu – one of south-east Asia’s greatest mountains at 4,095 metres.

The Borneo Coast to Coast, led by a bunch of former Newcastle Knights players, including Paul Harragon, Bill Peden and Steve Crowe, has so far raised more than $340,000 for the Mark Hughes Foundation.

Hughes, who formed the foundation in 2014, said the trek proved to be a real challenge.

“The conditions were something you couldn’t train for – they were horrendous,” Hughes told Newcastle Weekly.

“But we traced the footsteps of soldiers who did the [Sandakan] march and we enjoyed paying our respect because of what they endured.

“There was a lot of teamwork and a great spirit in the group.

“Each person had their own everydayhero fundraising account to get people to donate towards the cause.”

In 1945, as World War II drew to a close, the Japanese forced Allied prisoners into a series of marches from Sandakan to Ranau.

The marches resulted in the deaths of about 2,500 POWs, with only six Australian servicemen managing to escape.

It’s known as one of Australia’s greatest military tragedies.

The Borneo Coast to Coast trek followed last year’s hike up Mount Everest, which raised more than $500,000 for the Mark Hughes Foundation.

Funds support vital research for, and increases awareness in, brain cancer – the biggest killer of children under 10 and adults under 40 years of age in Australia.

The nib foundation and The Man Shake, owned and operated by Adam MacDougall, were once again on board as major sponsors of the trek.

Plastic pollution is a global issue, so Callaghan College students have taken an international approach to raise awareness and create potential solutions.

A total of 75 pupils from Callaghan and De La Salle Lipa, a school in the Philippines, made up 16 mixed teams that worked for six

weeks on their projects via cloudbased technology.

Some of the best ideas included the creation of ecobricks from discarded plastic bottles and the use of banana leaves in place of plastic packaging.

pc for Lambert, said the initiative was extremely beneficial.

“Single-use plastics are a huge problem in the Philippines, and the publicity around single-use supermarket shopping bags here meant we were very aware of the issue locally,” she said.

“So, it made sense to link up with the school in Lipa.

“The technology allows us to do this and, as well as the very practical side of coming up with answers to the problem, the process is enriching as it exposes students to other cultures and values.

“No matter which team wins, some great ideas about plastic pollution have emerged, and the students have developed skills in all sorts of curriculum areas to put their final projects together.

“Not least of these has been teamwork, and we’re expecting the connections with the Philippines to continue.”

Earlier this month, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) unveiled its latest Living Planet Report 2018, which claimed that global wildlife populations had fallen by 60% in just 40 years, driven largely by human activities.

The report highlighted the impact of plastic debris on the marine environment.

A decade-long study on the loggerhead sea turtle showed that 35% of the specimens analysed had ingested debris, which was almost all plastic, while another study, conducted in the Mediterranean, found 18% of tuna and swordfish had plastic in their stomachs.

A mixture of literature surveys, oceanographic and ecological models also indicated that about 90% of the world’s seabirds had fragments of plastic in their stomachs, compared to just 5% in 1960. Visit worldwildlife.org to read the full report.

Tahni McGovern proudly loses her locks at the 2018 Newcastle/Lake Macquarie Relay for Life.

Duo takes swing at cancer One in two Australians will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85, but some families receive more than their fair share of bad luck.

Despite their family’s odds, Elizabeth McGovern and her 12-year-old daughter, Tahni, decided to do something about that.

The duo made a pact to shave their hair at the 2018 Newcastle/ Lake Macquarie Relay for Life to raise much-needed funds for the Cancer Council, and, earlier this month, they did just that.

Liz has captained the Super Heroes 4 a Cure Relay team since 2015, when her mum, Maryann, was diagnosed with cancer in her jaw bone.

“All of our lives were tipped upside down,” Liz said.

Maryann underwent surgery and returned to work within six months, but the effects of the diagnosis were long-lasting.

Having had part of her jaw bone, tongue and the floor of her mouth removed, she can still only eat pureed foods.

That year, Super Heroes 4 a Cure raised $2,000 for the Cancer Council – one of Maryann’s postsurgery wishes.

But it would prove not to be the family’s last brush with cancer.

In June 2016, Liz’s grandmother and uncle were both diagnosed with lung cancer, two weeks apart.

Sadly, they lost their battle only a few months later – 16 days apart.

“During the 2017 Relay for Life, whilst Tahni and I walked the track [at Hunter Sports Centre] over and over again to pay tribute to all of the wonderful people that have lost their fight to cancer, and to also pay tribute to the many people who are still fighting their battle, are newly diagnosed, or who have beaten this horrible illness; Tahni turned to me and asked if I would let her raise money and shave her head at the 2018 Relay for Life,” Liz said.

“Of course, I said yes. Tahni asked if I would shave my head with her, and I agreed, as long as she reached her fundraising goal.”

That goal was $4,000, and, true to her word, Tahni smashed it by another $1,000 – the same day she was discharged from hospital after emergency surgery, no less.

“We are extremely proud of her and all that she has achieved,” Liz said.

Relay for Life is a community fundraising challenge that raises money for support services for cancer patients and their families.

news Inaugural lecture to honour legacy The legacy of well-known Hunter psychologist, educator and leader, professor Trevor Waring AM, will be honoured at a special free public lecture in Newcastle.

Mental health and suicide prevention institute, Everymind, has partnered with Hunter New England Local Health District and the University of Newcastle for the inaugural event tonight (Thursday 15 November).

Everymind director, Jaelea Skehan, said the late professor Waring, who served as the institute’s founding director, was highly-regarded not only for his work nationally, but also the significant contribution he made to the health service, university and Hunter community.

“The Trevor Waring Memorial Lecture acknowledges the significant roles Trevor Waring played in mental health and suicide prevention, and the enduring contribution he made to the partnering of organisations and the broader community across the Hunter,” Ms Skehan said.

“Trevor was a mentor to me and many others across our region.

“He was someone who invested in people,

sharing his knowledge with clinicians, researchers, health and community works, workplaces, families, and members of the community.”

The memorial lecture is part of an annual Expert in Residence Series, which brings an international expert to the Hunter Region for a range of workshops, talks and meetings aimed at building capacity among health professionals, researchers, businesses and the public.

Ms Skehan said this year’s series, from 12 to 16 November, featured renowned suicide prevention researcher and psychologist, professor Rory O’Connor, from the University of Glasgow.

“Professor Rory O’Connor is a wellrespected researcher, clinician and suicide prevention advocate and has demonstrated a keen commitment to sharing his knowledge, collaborating with others and building the next generation of suicidologists,” she said.

“This makes him an excellent choice for our inaugural Trevor Waring Expert in Residence.

“Local health agencies, government departments, NGO providers, those with lived

experience of suicide and the community have been working together to improve suicide prevention action, and having an international expert like Rory O’Connor with us across the week will help to consolidate that work.”

The lecture will take place at the Newcastle Conservatorium of Music from 6.15pm until 7.45pm.

news Full steam ahead for special anniversaries in Maitland One of the last rail networks in Australia to continue to use steam locomotives will celebrate dual 100 and 125-year anniversaries next month.

South Maitland Railways, which operated steam locomotives until they were replaced in the 1980s by diesel-electric engines, is set to open up its East Greta Junction yard in Telarah on Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 December.

The event will commemorate 100 years of incorporation and 125 years since the running of its first train.

Visitors will have the chance to ride the historic No.18 steam locomotive between Maitland Rally Ground and East Greta Junction, while they can also explore the No.10 steam locomotive and speak to retired drivers.

The No.10 locomotive will be on display at the yard, along with a collection of other past and present locomotives and wagons, as well as a variety of rail track machines and equipment.

South Maitland Railways manager, Warren Hedley, said the decision to use steam locomotives for so long was largely due to commercial factors.

“Back then [in the 1980s], Coal & Allied owned the rolling stock, coalmines and the railway,” he said.

“It was cheaper to allow them to run because all the infrastructure was there anyway, so why go out and buy new locomotives?

“But it got to a point where it was too expensive and they had to change over to the modern locomotives.”

The historic No.10 steam locomotive on South Maitland Railways.

Proceeds from the anniversary event will go towards the ongoing repair and running of the No.10 and No.18 locomotives, which are currently owned by the Hunter Valley Training Company.

Mr Hedley said the cost, and work, involved in their upkeep was extensive.

“Give their age – one is 107 years old (the No.10) and the other is 103 years old (the No.18) – there are a lot of parts that need to be

replaced and have to be handmade or manufactured specifically for the task,” he said.

“We’ll have the No.18 running [at the event] and that will cost us somewhere in the vicinity of $25,000, which doesn’t include operational costs.”

news From page 4 Other issues surrounded blasting, dust and industrial noise impacts, and Daracon’s lack of commitment to use its own rail loading facility.

Despite the court’s decision, Mr Ashton knows the fight is far from over.

Daracon aims to pull together a new State Significant Development Application, which is independent of the judgement, after several project refinements.

Some of these include a reduction in total production, a maximum of 900,000 tonnes per annum transported via road, a maximum of 140 laden truck movements per day from the quarry, and no loading of product onto trucks before 7am.

Mr Ashton says the MCQAG has never called for the quarry’s closure, but wanted the site to coexist with the local community.

A Daracon spokesperson stated its employees, customers and the

community all struggled to make sense of uncertainty that resulted from multiple legacy arrangements around the quarry’s operations.

“All of these pre-date Daracon’s operation [of the quarry],” the spokesperson says.

“That the decision on this matter has taken 18 months to be delivered is a reflection of how complex the issues involved are.

“This decision does not provide a new consent, it addresses confusion from legacy arrangements.

“We will continue to seek clarity for all parties via a new consent, a process Daracon has been leading for nearly three years with key stakeholders – including Dungog council – to pull together a new development application that would give clarity and certainty to all parties.

“Daracon still feels that this is the right way forward.”

cover story Have hope for Halle Miracles happen every day.

This is the spirit that drives a Lake Macquarie family.

Their four-year-old girl, Halle, has no life expectancy, minimal head control, faces difficulties when it comes to mealtime, and suffers from major seizures.

Despite being diagnosed with a rare chromosomal disorder, of which there are less than 500 cases reported worldwide, Halle is putting up a fight.

The condition – so rare it’s known only as 5q14.3 – is a deletion characterised by severe and early hypotonia, or low muscle tone, as well as severe cognitive delay, global development delay, low visual contact, limited hearing response, delayed speech or inability to communicate through speech, and difficulties swallowing.

The first few years of Halle’s life were spent in and out of hospital as

she battled respiratory infections and numerous seizures.

She remains wheelchair-bound, communicates through small cries, and continues to be fed 16 hours each day through a port in her stomach.

However, Halle’s family is determined to improve her quality of life.

Their goals for next year include Halle being able to independently hold her head and trunk in an upright position, purposefully communicate her needs and wants, and eat small, pureed meals regularly enough to satisfy her nutritional needs.

In an effort to help her progress, Halle has been offered a place at the Neurological and Physical Abilitation (NAPA) Centre in Sydney.

The centre provides specific and unique therapy programs for children with neurological and physical disabilities, delivered by registered

Danielle, Halle, her brother Jaylen and dad Todd at Lake Macquarie. Photo: Peter Stoop

physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech pathologists.

However, the three-week program will cost about $10,500.

“We’ve raised $27,000 so far,” Halle’s stepmum, Danielle Lambert, says.

“At the moment, 2019 is covered but we’re not sure where the therapy will go from there.

“Obviously, spending $10,000 for

three weeks’ therapy isn’t something we can maintain for the rest of Halle’s life.

“So, we’re aiming to get to [the centre] and see how she responds to it, because it is very intensive.”

Halle’s family has set up a GoFundMe page. Visit gofundme.com/ halles-hope-for-a-miracle if you’d like to donate, or to find out more.

news Dale rides for men’s health Once a man of few words when it came to his health, Dale McLean’s irregular GP visits and laid-back attitude kept him worry-free and away from the doctor.

These days, things are a little different.

At 49, the Newcastle resident was urged to get a Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) test by his daughters, Jamie and Elisha.

His doctor then delivered the bad news – that Dale’s high PSA levels and the subsequent tests revealed he had aggressive prostate cancer.

However, it was caught in the nick of time, with the cancer just one millimetre away from spreading and being untreatable.

After 10 hours on the operating table to remove his prostate, as well as blood tests and endless appointments, Dale received the

all-clear and was officially in remission three years later.

The push from his daughters had potentially saved his life.

Ever since the diagnosis, Dale has been on a mission to educate and raise awareness for the Movember Foundation – a men’s health charity.

He helps start conversations through his annual Movember Motorcycle Ride around Lake Macquarie.

“My favourite thing about Movember is the camaraderie and fun we have trying to raise funds and awareness for men’s health,” he said.

“My goal for the motorcycle ride is to encourage men to have a chat and go see a doctor.”

This year’s ride, which took place at the weekend, raised $2,162.

Like Dale, more than 200,000 men are estimated to be living with, and beyond, prostate cancer in Australia.

Movember Foundation Australia’s country director, Rachel Carr, said every dollar raised, and story shared, was a step closer to its goal of stopping men dying too young.

“I’ve seen men in my life go through really tough times, and heard firsthand the impact that

men’s health issues, such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer and suicide, have on Aussie men,” she said.

“Being part of the Movember movement is about raising the volume on men’s health and I’ll be joining our Mo Bros and Sistas in shouting from the rooftops this Movember.”

news Cardiff home to newest container deposit

Cardiff’s new Bulk Container Deposit Centre. Photo: Peter Stoop

A new Bulk Container Deposit Centre has officially opened in Cardiff.

Located at 1/12 Belford Place, the drive-through facility offers a convenient way to recycle large volumes of eligible containers through the NSW Return and Earn Container Deposit Scheme, with a twist.

Since the centre is operated by

the St Vincent de Paul Society, the not-for-profit organisation receives a handling fee, which goes back into the community to help people in need.

Together with donated funds (which customers can choose to make at the station), proceeds will be used to help run accommodation and support services, such as counselling

and case management, to aid vulnerable and disadvantaged people across the Hunter Region.

“Our ongoing participation in the container deposit scheme is intrinsically linked to the society’s ongoing commitment to recycling and is an extension of our retail store philosophy of reuse – helping to divert waste from landfill and supporting those in need at the same time,” Vinnies’ executive director for central councils and commercial operations, Peter Knock, said.

The new centre is one of four Vinnies operates across the state.

It has the capacity to sort and count about 100,000 containers a day, and, as with other Return and Earn sites, the Cardiff one deposits refunds on the spot via electronic funds transfer.

The centre is open from 8.30am to 3.30pm, Monday to Saturday.

Switch-andsave campaign The Hunter Business Chamber is part of a state-wide campaign to help people leverage savings on their energy bills.

The NSW Business Chamber’s 5in5 platform provides a free energy comparison for businesses, homes, or both.

All that is required are your contact details and a copy of your latest energy bill (optional).

Hunter Business Chamber chief executive Bob Hawes says 5in5 aims to reap $5 million in savings for businesses and residents across the state in the next five weeks.

“We are facing one of the most challenging times in the Australian electricity market,” he says.

Ground renamed in tribute to Holland

Hall prepares for shot at first world championship His preparation for each race is always meticulous, but Matt Hall admits he has used “every available resource” ahead of this weekend’s finale as he vies for his first Red Bull Air Race World Championship title.

The Novocastrian, who is Australia’s sole representative, sits in third on the championship leaderboard, seven points behind American Michael Goulian and two adrift of Czech Martin Šonka.

Hall says winning the title at the Texas Motor Speedway on 18 November will fulfil a long-held dream.

“It’s something I’ve been trying to do for upwards of 10 years,” he tells Newcastle Weekly.

“I have been on the world

championship podium three times, and it’s guaranteed to be four, but coming first is something you always strive to achieve.”

Hall, who finished runner-up in the championship in both 2015 and 2016, has the most work to do in the three-man race for the title.

The scenario is difficult.

Even if he wins the race, Hall must rely on Goulian finishing outside the top three.

If Šonka finishes second and Goulian fourth, he will be world champion by one clear point.

“To remove all doubt, we have to win the race; if we do, and [Goulian] is not on the podium, then we win the championship,” Hall says.

“So, we’re using every

available resource with the knowledge that we have two or three months off after this.”

Speaking to the Weekly from Texas as he prepares for the race, Hall says he appreciates the support from the Hunter Region.

“A lot of people in Newcastle have been getting behind us – we’re really grateful for all the support, particularly locally.

“And, we’re looking forward to coming back and showing everyone the trophy.”

The cricket ground where Lake Macquarie cricketing legend Robert ‘Dutchy’ Holland played his maiden first-grade match almost 60 years ago will be renamed in his honour.

Lake Macquarie council voted unanimously on Monday night to rename Awaba Oval as Robert ‘Dutchy’ Holland Oval following a submission from Cricket Southern Lakes and widespread community support.

Holland became the oldest cricketer in more than 50 years to pull on the Baggy Green when he was called into the Australian Test side in 1984. He was 38 years old at the time.

In that same 1984-85 season, Holland took a 10-wicket haul in the fifth test against the West Indies, claiming the prized scalps of Viv Richards, Desmond Haynes and captain Clive Lloyd in the process.

In 1961, Holland played his first game of first grade for Southern Lakes, aged just 15, at Awaba Oval.

He played a total of 440 grade matches for the club, including 317 in first grade.

Holland died in September 2017 after a battle with brain cancer.

Merewether Ridge Street Surgery advertising moment

Quality care in traditional family GP Ridge Street Surgery’s setting Merewether books are open once more.

T

he general practice was closed to new patients under the previous long-time management of well-known doctor, Geoff Lambert, but reopened at the start of the year when Dr Safwat Khalid took the reins.

Dr Khalid joins Dr Bianca Sheridan, Dr Stella Kingston, Dr Vicki Newing, and practice nurse Julie Hewitt as the surgery’s core medical staff.

Receptionist Anna Lambert – Dr Lambert’s daughter – said, having

grown up around the much-loved practice, which was established more than 30 years ago, she knew its significance to the local community.

“We’ve treated lots of families over the years,” she said.

“I think it just shows that commitment to patients.

“Alison, our practice manager, knows just about everyone who comes in here. It makes it a more personal experience.”

Part of the practice’s charm is in its

character as an old converted house, which Anna said felt “less clinical” than some other doctors’ surgeries.

Some of the treatments Merewether Ridge Street Surgery specialises in include all areas of general medicine, excisions, skin cancer checks, and bulk-billed immunisations for children, as well as in-house pathology services on

Thursdays and Fridays.

Practice nurse Julie Hewitt offers immunisations, asthma care plans, and health checks for over-75s.

New and existing patients can phone the surgery to make an appointment, or book online through the ‘book now’ button at the bottom of the website, which clearly shows all available appointments.

Warners Bay Private Hospital advertising moment

Rehabilitation ward part of hospital’s rapid expansion Warners Bay Private Hospital strives to provide patients with an excellent rehabilitation service.

Warners Bay Private Hospital opened its Rehabilitation Ward in September 2010.

The Rehabilitation Ward features a large refurbished gym, inpatient programs, a hydrotherapy pool, a courtyard, experienced physiotherapists and occupational therapists, two rehabilitation physicians, and nursing staff.

Following recent building works the hospital now has 29 rehabilitation beds.

The hospital also offers a Rehabilitation Day Program offering hydrotherapy and physiotherapy to patients following discharge.

Rehabilitation Physician, Dr Michael Smith, who started at Warners Bay Private Hospital in December 2010, says the majority of the ward's patients come to the ward after orthopaedic procedures.

“They’re accidental falls or fractures, mainly in older people,” he says.

“There are a lesser number of people with a neurological condition, such as Parkinson’s

disease or an acute stroke.”

Dr Smith says the rehabilitation ward is part of the hospital’s rapid expansion.

“Once we got the ward up and running, it’s been a stimulus for more surgeons to come on board as they know patients will be transferred post-operation.

“New orthopaedic surgeons have started operating at the hospital and there has also been a marked increase in mental health beds as part of the expansion.

“Overall, it’s a rapidly-growing hospital; the entire hospital has also been internally refurbished.”

Warners Bay is one of a few private hospitals in the Newcastle and Lake Macquarie area with a mental health unit and outpatient mental health day programs.

In addition to surgical, rehabilitation and mental health the hospital also offers a 'sleep studies' service.

Plan puts Hunter Region on map

Lorn-based Myrtle & Pepper Fine Chocolate has taken home top honours in the 2018 Callebaut Sydney Royal Chocolate Show for the second consecutive year.

The Hunter Valley chocolaterie outclassed more than 120 entries from around the country with their exquisite box of native Australian chocolates.

Myrtle & Pepper Fine Chocolate founder, Rachael King, said the calibre of talent was very high, and the team understood how much hard

work would be involved if they wanted to repeat their earlier successes.

“Needless to say, we didn’t get much sleep the week of entry,” she said.

Their hard work paid off, and the team achieved the highest score on record, also scooping gold for their Lemon Myrtle & Pink Salt Bar and bronze for a Whisky & Soda Chocolate.

The prize included a trip to the Callebaut Chocolate Academy in Belgium to learn from some of the world’s best chocolatiers.

Highest honour for chocolaterie

More food and wine lovers across the globe are set to put the Hunter on their travel itineraries.

The state government has launched its first NSW Food & Wine Tourism Strategy & Action Plan 2018-2022.

It is hoped the plan will grow the vibrant food and wine industry, which currently contributes around $9.2 billion a year to the state’s visitor economy.

Ongoing collaboration between government and industry will play a key role in achieving these objectives.

Hunter Valley Wine and Tourism Association chair, Lindy Hyam, said the Hunter’s wine industry was the oldest continuing wine region in Australia and generated at least 2,800 jobs in the region.

“Securing our future depends on marketing to new and existing customers and innovative product development building on our established and new and emerging food and wine brands,” she said.

“This strategy and action plan will promote achievement of this goal.”

“Icing on the cake” for Supercars finale International megastars Simple Minds will headline the Newcastle 500 alongside Birds of Tokyo later this month.

The Glasgow rockers, with hits such as Don’t You (Forget About Me), Alive and Kicking and Belfast Child,

will play at the No.1 Sportsground in an exclusive Australian performance on Saturday 24 November.

They’ll be joined by Birds of Tokyo – the ARIA and APRA awardwinners known for rock anthems like Plans, Lanterns, Wild at Heart,

and I’d Go With You Anywhere.

The Saturday night concert is free with any same-day event ticket to the Supercars season finale, which takes place from Friday 23 to Sunday 25 November.

Simple Minds frontman Jim Kerr said it was an easy decision to perform Down Under.

“We never refuse an opportunity to go to Australia – we’ve been going there since 1981,” he told Newcastle Weekly.

“We owe it a lot of our success – we had our first real breakthrough, with our first gold [album], there.

“It’ll be at the end of a six-month tour and we thought ‘why not’?

“Hopefully, we will be the icing on the cake [for the Supercars weekend].”

Simple Minds is one of the biggest bands to come out of the UK, with five number ones and more than 70 million albums sold.

Formed in 1977, the band has just completed an extensive tour of North America but is showing no signs of slowing down.

“It was our first extensive tour of the US in 25 years,” Kerr said.

“We thought it might be our last; we had no idea it’d go as well as it has, and there’s talk of getting us back.

“There is also songwriting, a new record to get done, and a documentary in the pipeline – so there’s no shortage of things to do.”

Kerr added there was a “ton of factors” behind the band’s longevity.

“We’ve had great people and a great team around us,” he said.

“Not everything has gone to plan.

“But we started this band 41 years ago. If you said to us then: ‘What do you want out of this?’

“We would’ve said we want to be a great live band – that means writing great songs and going out there and performing well.”

The Newcastle 500 concerts have been shifted to No.1 Sportsground this year due to space restrictions for the stage area in Foreshore Park, following the redevelopment of the Market Street Lawn.

Raising mo awareness of men’s health issues Suicide is “too prevalent” among men for comedian and primary school teacher, Jason Starrett, to sit back and do nothing about.

Starrett alone has lost an uncle, two male cousins, and his teenage nephew to suicide.

“Blokes just aren’t looking after themselves or talking to one another,” he told Newcastle Weekly.

“We have to look after each other.”

In the past, Starrett had donated “$10 here and there” to Movember – the macho moustache-growing campaign that draws awareness to prostate and testicular cancer, men’s mental health and suicide – but he admitted the cause never truly hit home until he fell into depression last year.

“I was going down the path to suicidal thoughts, but I got help,” he said.

“Once I got out of hospital, I thought, I’m not a psychiatrist or a psychologist, so I can’t help people that way, but what if I could put on a

show to start the conversation?”

Starrett hosted his first Mo Comedy night at Lizotte’s in January, and raised just short of $5,000 for the Movember Foundation.

It was a fitting fundraiser, given the restaurant’s owner, Brian Lizotte, had been diagnosed with prostate cancer about six months beforehand.

It was so successful that Starrett has organised another Mo Comedy night for Thursday 29 November at the same venue.

There are a dozen comedians on the bill, including Peter Meisel (headline act) and 1233 ABC Newcastle’s Garth Russell as special guest, giving stand-up comedy a go for only the second time.

A guitar, signed by The Animals, Glenn Shorrock, Mike Love, Thirsty Merc, Adam Harvey, Ryan McMullen and Diesel, will also be auctioned on the night.

It will later be signed by Lior, Jimmy Barnes,

Thou shalt laugh thy socks off Chopper has taken no prisoners.

Bogan Jesus is just the tip of the iceberg for what’s next for this enigmatic character.

The man behind the mo, Heath Franklin, is a multi-talented performer, actor, improvisor and writer.

Aside from his exploits as Chopper, he has featured in the New Zealand black comedy feature film Predicament, which also starred Jemaine Clement of Flight of the Conchords.

In 2017, he also appeared in the mystery drama series, Top of the Lake – China Girl, alongside Elisabeth Moss.

Franklin has also been a series regular on ABC’s Wednesday Night Fever, Spicks and Specks and Thank God You’re Here.

Say your prayers, Australia’s ‘mostwanted’ comedian – Heath Franklin’s Chopper – is back, and he is rising again to preach to the converted in Bogan Jesus – The Resurrection Tour.

After selling 25,000 tickets across Australia and New Zealand and scoring the coveted Comic’s Choice award at the 2018 Melbourne Comedy Festival, Chopper is hitting the road to spread the ‘hard’ word.

There’s a new Messiah in town and he’s not big on forgiveness. So, sit back, take a shot of sacrament and get ready to laugh and worship – all at the same time.

Chopper is a bonafide comedic and cultural icon. He boasts two ARIA nominations, one Logie nomination, and more than half a million ticket sales worldwide.

Deck the halls, darling Australia’s most sought-after drag queens are bringing their glittering spectacular, Prada’s Priscillas: An AllMale Christmas Revue, to Newcastle.

The 90-minute extravaganza takes audiences on a musical journey from where it all began with the famous Les Girls of Kings Cross in the 1960s, across the Australian desert with Priscilla Queen of the Desert in the 90s, and into 2018 with a celebration of modern musical icons.

Prada and her stunning ‘girls’ will pay tribute to Les Girls with a Las Vegas-style feathered showgirl number; perform an array of songs from Priscilla Queen of the Desert, including crowd favourites I Love the Nightlife, Shake Your Groove Thing and I Will Survive; and delight with hits from icons ABBA, Cher and Lady Gaga.

This special edition of Prada’s Priscillas, taking Newcastle’s Civic

Theatre by storm on Saturday 8 December, will also feature some of the most-loved Christmas hits performed by the world’s greatest divas, including Jingle Bell Rock, All I Want for Christmas Is You, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, and Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town.

It is creatively directed by one of the original Les Girls, Monique Kelly, with choreography by Stephen Clarke, who has worked with the Minogue sisters, Cyndi Lauper and Diana Ross.

With a cast of seven, the show is headlined by one of Australia’s most in-demand live-singing drag queens, Prada Clutch, who is known for her commanding stage presence and draws inspiration from the likes of Dusty Springfield, Patti LaBelle and Cher.

home

sake. This process will help you understand what you’re looking for in a home. Also, do your research.

Find out as much as you can about the suburb/s you’d like to live in – their benefits and drawbacks.

Finances Do yourself a favour and make an appointment with a broker to find out what kind of shape your finances are in, how much you can borrow, or what steps you need to take in order to achieve your home ownership goals. This will give you a much better indication of the position you’re in. Seriously, I can’t overstate the value of a good broker who can be there at your beck and call. Your other right-hand man? A reliable conveyancer or solicitor.

Making an offer Newcastle Weekly editor Georgia Osland with her partner, Luke, at their new house.

First-home buying, as told by a first-home buyer Buying a house is one of the biggest financial decisions you will ever make. So, what can a firsthome buyer expect? Home editor Georgia Osland recalls her recent experience.

The first hurdle I had to clear was to want to buy a house. As a young professional I had done my fair share of travelling with my partner, Luke, but I knew I still had gas in the tank and I didn’t want to take the home ownership plunge at the expense of my freedom. However, as a naturally savvy saver, I knew a house was the best kind of “savings account” for my money. Sure, the first couple of years would be tough, but I’d no

longer be paying off someone else’s mortgage and, so long as I kept prioritising, I’d still be able to have my cake and eat it too. Before I knew it, I was enamoured with the Great Australian Dream.

House hunting Go to as many open homes as you can. It doesn’t matter whether you have any intention of making an offer – stickybeak for stickybeaking’s

Once you think you’ve found “the one” (and, be warned, this can and does happen several times before you end up settling), don’t be afraid to make an offer. My best advice is to stick to your budget, remain cool, calm and collected and don’t let emotions get in the way. If you’re outbid, it wasn’t meant to be.

There will be others. In fact, this happened to me, and I do not regret it a single bit.

Legal limbo and settlement A lot happens in the period between your offer being accepted and settlement day. It’s stressful, at times, I won’t lie. There’s lots of legal jargon flying around. Paperwork. Deadlines.

Debts to settle. In addition to this, you may feel any or all of the following emotions: excitement, overwhelm, gratitude, impatience, exhaustion, self-doubt, sheer happiness and a touch of buyer’s remorse (very common – it does subside, I promise).

It’s nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. But, when all is said and done, you have a house to call your own and

no one can take that away from you.

Relish taking that photo in front of the ‘sold’ sign – you’ve earned it!

Making a house a home If you’re anything like me, you want everything done yesterday. I’m easily the most impatient person I know.

As soon as Luke and I moved in, I had everything unpacked within three days – not a single cardboard box in sight. But it wasn’t enough. I then wanted all the new furniture I had planned to buy, and I wanted it now.

I was also itching to get stuck into DIY projects. Slight problem: our bank accounts were looking quite sad. So, I had to come to grips with the fact that we couldn’t do everything at once and be content with tackling one thing at a time.

Another tip: live with some elements of your home for a while – you might change your mind about your initial renovating or styling choices.

One final note, about being a nervous and/or overwhelmed firsthome owner (as I was during the first few weeks, and still am): try not to worry. I’ll leave you with these reassuring words from an online forum contributor, on what he calls “the Zen of homeowning”: “Something is always broken. It always costs more money than you want in order to fi x it.

“Home owning – home maintaining, really – is a battle humankind has fought since we crawled from the water and needed shelter. We have protected our caves from predators. We have mended our tents with more skins. We have baked more bricks to replace the eroded few. You are fighting a battle against Mother Nature and physics. It will be hard, and you will be fraught with doubt. The sheer power of entropy will overwhelm you, as it did our ancestors. It is possible to persevere and live in a beautiful home, even if it isn’t absolutely perfect.”

Oh baby A baby’s nursery should be a peaceful retreat, where soft furnishings and neutral palettes rule supreme. By the same token, don’t be afraid to play around a little and have some fun!

Could your kitchen do with a facelift...at less cost?

Choose plants wisely Villa and apartment living has become popular in the last couple of years.

Any such new homeowners once had large gardens in the suburbs and eventually miss the colour of flowers, the smell of fresh herbs and picking their vegetables with the homegrown flavours.

Choosing the right plants for such spaces is vital in achieving a successful outcome. Selection and placement also affects the amount of maintenance required as the garden grows.

Consideration should be given fi rstly to the requirements necessary to achieve a lovely courtyard garden.

Choose plants that grow well in your climate. If you like shadeloving plants, perhaps you could

add a shade sail.

If the building is new, check the soil, as often building rubble fi nds its way into the garden beds.

Improve the soil’s condition after you have made your plant choices.

It is wise to add a good potting mix when you plant. Building up the soil is the most important project in the garden’s construction.

Check out how quickly a plant will grow and how hardy it is.

Is the plant deciduous, are the roots invasive, will it attract pests and diseases?

Avoid hot or windy days at the time of planting. Most plants survive if mulched; this helps retain moisture and control weeds.

PICK OF THE WEEK Back To The Future Part III Donnie Darko

Sully

Sully

Saturday, GO!, 7pm, PG (2016) With Tom Hanks (left) in the leading role, Clint Eastwood in the director’s chair, and the story of one of the most remarkable incidents in aviation history, you almost can’t go wrong. This movie goes beyond the 208 seconds when United Airways Flight 1549 floundered to look at the fallout from the incident, exploring the lasting effects it had on the hero of the piece, as he was hounded by the press and investigators.

Friday

Back To The Future Part III

Sunday, GO!, 7pm, PG (1990) Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox, left) and Doc (Christopher Lloyd) return in this very credible sequel, travelling through time to the Old West of 1855 for more anachronistic adventures.

Along the way Marty meets his ancestors, impersonates Clint Eastwood, shows off the gunslinger skills he honed playing video games and desperately tries to find a way home before Doc’s fateful day.

November 16 12pm ABC News At Noon. 1.00 One PRIME7 (ch 6)

Sunday, SBS VLND, 12am, M (2001) It’s 1988, America is on auto-pilot and Ronald Reagan has done enough damage. Something’s not quite right with Donnie (Jake Gyllenhaal, pictured right). Despite being part of a “normal” family, the rebellious teenager is on medication.

He sees a shrink. After a close brush with death, he begins having bizarre visions and hallucinations, and is roped into committing random acts of violence by a demonic man-like rabbit.

Rachel’s emotions will take on a life of their own and she will become more passionate and enthusiastic about everything and everyone.

Being more moody than usual, she may find herself involved in a series of family arguments.

There may be problems with regards to her mother or other older female relatives and she will have to take extra responsibility for them.

Events will be changing quickly even without her help. Rachel may decide that this is the year to relocate.

ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20

CANCER JUNE 22 – JULY 22

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

With Mars in Pisces, it’s time to take a deep breath and relax! After the tensions of last month, you will begin to feel your energy return. Keep your loved ones close and let go of any past resentments. The planets encourage relaxation and the company of positive people.

Mars in Pisces indicates you’re particularly drawn to groups now; socially and creatively, you benefit from spending time with others who stimulate you intellectually. You may become part of a new group of friends or colleagues. If you’re single, one of them may come to mean something special in the future.

With Mars in Pisces, you may feel that you’re working hard for scant reward; you may wonder why you feel alone or unloved. Some of you may try to fill up your time with activity, people and events, but such efforts cannot bring you the comfort you seek.

Overcoming inertia is never simple, but

With Mars in Pisces, it’s time to connect with nature, listen to your intuition and be more outgoing. If you’re experiencing difficulties or have been unwell, your energy will start to return and your ability to let go of damaging memories will be strengthened by contact with your true self.

LEO JUL 23 – AUG 23

Mars is in Pisces and trying to stay centred will be a major challenge.

Everything may seem tenuous and you may be tempted by people or situations which are illusory or insincere. There may be a rush of social invitations and plans along with an unusual or tempting offer.

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUNE 21

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEPT 23

With Mars in Pisces, it represents a serious challenge; you’re asked to consider murky issues of power, manipulation and control. They may surface as a sense of anger and fear which drives you on. Everything will become confusing, especially with Mercury retrograde on 18 November.

With Mars in Pisces, issues of control, insecurity and jealousy are likely to raise their ugly heads. Be careful of destroying a relationship through possessive behaviour and an inability to trust your partner. You could be experiencing a strange phase in which you feel emotionally detached.

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21

Mars in Pisces indicates that you may be feeling exhausted, making it difficult to see life objectively. On the relationship front, you’re unable to decide what to do next. Taking a break is the most sensible thing to do and try not to force yourself into making a decision.

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21 Mars in Pisces indicates you’re feeling restless, unable to settle to anything and your mind teems with stray thoughts. During this unstable time, you’re likely to give loved ones a hard time. Take care of your energy as there will be hectic pressures with work or personal commitments.

this is your challenge at the moment and you may need help in order to achieve this goal. You need to get in touch with your inner feelings, because the further away you drift from your true centre, the more unsettled you’ll feel.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19 Mars in Pisces denotes a feeling of chaos. Encounters with others are fraught with misunderstanding, dates may be cancelled and sudden partings are likely. Try to see where relationships have become stagnant, as you may have unconsciously attracted the changes you’re experiencing.

PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20 November is proving to be full-on and you need to be disciplined as the pace will be strenuous and constant.

Ambitious targets at work will be in your sights and you will achieve plenty of recognition and praise, which will give your confidence a strong boost.

MY SONS I am blessed to have three loves in my life – my sons Brad, Ryan and Zach.

They are a constant reminder of heartfelt love. I’m proud to watch them grow into the wonderful young men they have become.

My favourite things SUPPORTING A CAUSE My passion is to help others.

Volunteering enables me to achieve and give back, and is one of the kindest ways to support each other on this planet.

TRAVEL

Ann Grimshaw

Learn, live, create memories, lifelong friends, experiences, discoveries and fun.

Don’t forget the Aeroguard!

NSW VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR NOMINEE

Ann Grimshaw is a proud Novocastrian, born and bred.

She works at John Hunter Hospital, assisting patients with their daily needs. Ann is at her happiest when volunteering, meeting, and helping others in need.

She has spent many hours with the Cancer Council, volunteering at numerous events and raising much-needed funds for cancer, while she also runs a social support group, CanSisters, for women living with cancer.

Ann works with a talented team of sewers, who make Angel Gowns for local hospitals. She recently travelled to Masai Mara in Kenya, Africa, to teach and help build a school. Ann is honoured to have been nominated for the 2018 NSW Volunteer of the Year award. She recommends spending some of your time volunteering because helping is the best gift you can give.

MUSIC Music soothes the soul.

I love listening to a local live band or with headphones while walking around Newcastle’s beaches.

EDUCATION Learn something new every day, read or learn a new skill, listen to a podcast, then teach someone else.
