Welcome

Welcome to the September Edition For anyone who may have missed it, this month’s cover by Colette Langton captures the development of the offshore Rampion wind farm, scheduled to open next year, it is set to have a capacity of 400 megawatts generated by 116 turbines. Maintenance and administrative support for the 140 metre turbines will be from the port of Newhaven. Summer may be nearing its end but that doesn’t mean everything stops, indeed if you scan the articles and adverts in this edition you will see there is still plenty going on, there is Our Lady of Lourdes Summer Ball page 41, Denton Island Indoor Bowls Club Open day p60, events at the Grange gallery p63, and the Brighton Male Voice Choir Festival on page 62. Thanks to everyone who has submitted editorial for this edition, keep this coming in so that we can keep local people up to date about what is going on around the Deans area. Keith - Editor

Microsoft Scam

There are very few of us now who aren’t aware of the scam cold callers purporting to be Microsoft engineers telling you that you have a problem with your computer. In fact, because we’ve all wised up to this scam, they’ve had to move onto pastures new. The latest reported way in which they are tricking the unsuspecting marks an evolution in bogus tech support scams. Instead of the phone call, you’ll now get an email with links that lead to fraudulent tech support sites. The emails appear to be genuine correspondence from well-known brands such as LinkedIn and Amazon. The email pretends to be an invoice, cancelled order, or social media message that contains phishing links hidden in seemingly harmless text. By clicking the link, you will be lead to a compromised website that, as with existing tactics, automatically redirects you to the scam site. You may then encounter a scare-mongering pop up telling you about your urgent security issues which directs you to a tech support scam website. Once here there are more scare tactics employed to trick you into calling hotlines and paying for unnecessary 'technical support services' that supposedly fix your non-existent issues. Microsoft's research into these types of issues indicates that three million users each month are exposed to tech-support scams. The most widespread tech-support scam malware is known as TechBrolo, which uses a looping dialog box that effectively locks the browser, and an audio file that describes

the supposed problem and urges the user to call a support number. With the increasingly sophisticated nature of scam emails it becomes more difficult to spot the scam ones from genuine emails. For this type of tech scam, it is worth reminding you that Microsoft doesn't proactively reach out to users to offer unsolicited tech support.

Clifden House

Local School partners with Dementia Care Centre A successful partnership has developed between a leading Seaford dementia care centre and pupils at Northease Manor School, Lewes. Pupils from Northease Manor School, Lewes and the residents of Clifden House Dementia Care Centre have developed a special relationship over the past year that has included baking, fundraising and entertainment. Empathy Dolls Initially, the Year 10 Citizenship group invited speakers from Clifden House to explain to students what dementia feels like and following this the students became interested in doll therapy – as a way of helping dementia sufferers.

Links between the school and the home continue to grow; Northease students have campaigned to raise money to buy special empathy dolls. Cake sale and performance On another visit to Clifden House, the pupils helped residents bake a range of cup cakes. They also held a cake sale to raise money to buy the therapy dolls. At the end of term, Clifden House residents travelled over to watch the of year production of Beauty and the Beast. A sense of achievement Rowena Carr at Northease School said “It is such a great opportunity for our pupils to use their skills to help others. It is very evident that the residents at Clifden House enjoy the involvement of our pupils, and the pupils too feel a great sense of achievement in doing something very positive for the residents of the dementia care centre. It is a thoroughly mutually beneficial partnership and one we hope to continue. Our pupils will meet with the residents again to see how successful the doll therapy is. ”

Nial Joyce of Clifden House said: “The pupils from Northease School are such a pleasure to have. Our residents love having them here, their baking skills and general interaction with our residents is fantastic. The end of year production was the ‘icing on the cake’ with everyone in high spirits!” Ongoing support activities The partnership between Northease School and Clifden House is part of a comprehensive activity calendar at the home to create an active and vibrant environment for everyone. Involvement of local pupils and local groups is often credited with helping residents stay connected with the wider community. Clifden House is one of the leading dementia care homes in the South East. It has an overall ‘good’ rating from the CQC. www.clifdenhouse.co.uk 01323 896460

Osteopathy tips

Bridgefordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Best Bites:

Piriformis Syndrome The term was introduced by Robinson in 1947, implies a group of signs and symptoms caused by piriformis muscle disorders, leading to irritation and compression of the anatomic structures passing under its belly, notably the sciatic nerve, causing sciatica that is not related to the spine or discs. There is no consensus regarding diagnosis, pathophysiology, investigation and management. Anatomy: There are 2 piriformis muscles located across the bottom, attaching at one end to the ball at the top of the hip bone (the greater trochanter of the femur) and at the other end to either side of the sacrum (the triangular bone at the base of the spine) where the utero-sacral ligament also attaches. Piriformis muscles pass over the sacro-iliac joints, having a strong relationship with sciatic nerve, which passes under or through piriformis muscle slightly differently in each individual, making some people more susceptible to related sciatic nerve irritation. Symptoms: Are mostly related to spasm of the muscle and irritation of the underlying sciatic nerve. Buttock tenderness in the muscle itself and deep seated gluteal pain, which can radiate to coccyx and back of the leg. Aggravated by prolonged sitting, hip flexion, abduction (taking the leg out to the side) and internal rotation. There may be different leg lengths, weak hip abductors and pain on resisted hip abduction in sitting position. Causes: Usually by a fall on the buttocks or direct trauma. Can also be from irritation of the sacro-iliac joint or a lump near the sciatic notch, lipoma (fat containing lump) in the muscle, chronic expanding hematoma across the gluteal muscles, fibrosis after a deep injection, one leg shorter than the other, pyomyositis (bacterial infection in skeletal muscle that can cause a pus-filled abscess), dystonia (neurological movement disorder causing contractions and spasms), possibly adverse effects of atorvastatin. The layer of fascia surrounding the abdominal cavity can provide a route for infection from pelvis to piriformis, involving it in urino-genital irritation. Piriformis syndrome after caesarean section spinal anaesthetic is attributed to the spinal procedure, though can be caused by prolonged upright sitting after delivery, compressing sciatic nerve at sacro-iliac joint, inflaming and irritating piriformis. Ballet dancers often need help with piriformis due to leg turn-out position.

Diagnosis: Neurological examination and imaging results are usually normal and used to rule out other causes of sciatica; each leg can be lifted up when laying on the back; symptoms are not be relieved by lumbar facet joint injections as lumbar nerve origin sciatica would be. Flexion, adduction and internal rotation movements of the hip cause pain. Pain can be reproduce by deep palpation in piriformis; contracting piriformis with Pace's manoeuvre: seated patient abducts the legs; stretching piriformis with Freiberg's manoeuvre: forceful internal rotation of the extended thigh and Side-laying: patient laying painful side up, upper leg bent, then lifting and holding upper knee several inches off the table. Treatment: Focuses on stretching (hip flexion, adduction, and external rotation), hip muscle strengthening, physical therapies, deep soft tissue work, acupuncture dry-needling, pain medication and ultrasound guided nerve blocks and injections, including corticosteroid and botulinum toxin; surgical management should be a last resort and can include arthroscopic release of the muscle. Osteopathic/Manual Management: Adjusting spinal and hip bones, soft tissue and myofascial techniques, stretching, dry needling, home rehabilitation exercises; attention to postural habits and ergonomics.

Local history - Part 64

Mike Laslett

Proposed film studios 1945/46 at Ovingdean

Last month I wrote about a film made in this area. Now by contrast here is some information about films that could have been made in our locality but never happened. In December 1945 The Land and Works Committee of Brighton Council considered a proposal to grant a 50 year lease of 36 acres of farmland to Bruton Films Ltd. for use as a film production studio. Later that month the full council agreed to enter into the lease. The site, north of the coast road, was opposite St Dunstan’s, near to Roedean School and would have rivalled Denham, Pinewood or Elstree. The Brighton and Hove Gazette reported on 15 December that there had been a lively debate at the full Council before the matter was approved. There were fears that there would be unsightly buildings on the cliff top as film studios required a large number of exterior sets which were most unsightly when viewed from the rear. Another Councillor drew attention to the proximity of Roedean School and the fact that the film industry attracted such persons as gigolos. The Council decided to proceed and at a Rottingdean village meeting on 28 January villagers were divided on the merits of the scheme. Some said that Brighton Council shouldn’t be antagonised, that the local economy needed the scheme or that it couldn’t look worse than St Dunstan’s (!) Those against the scheme said that we might suddenly find a full size Queen Mary or Titanic (how prophetic) which would require a huge unsightly building, while others anticipated danger from the high powered cars of film impresarios. However, The Rottingdean Preservation Society went into overdrive. Having had St Margaret’s flats imposed on them without consultation, the Society had been formed to prevent such further unilateral impositions by Brighton Council.

They wrote to The Editor in Chief of the Press Association and brief paragraphs outlining the objectionable proposal appeared in the Evening Standard, Evening News and The Star in June 1946. (I have copies but they are undated) The Society wrote to every government department whom they thought might lend their support: Planning, Food production, Housing, Transport and Trade, etc. Letters in support of the enterprise appeared in The Argus on 10��, 14�� and 15�� June. A year after it all started, the Council agenda dated 12 December noted the Land Works Committee minute 125 on 14�� November which stated that the proposals had been withdrawn by the proposers due to various delays. Of considerable interest is the fact that an earlier proposal of 1938 to build a Hydro was resurrected. It had been put into abeyance until the war was over. The proposer expected it to proceed now the war had ceased and the film company was no longer in the picture. The proposal was ambitious. The Roedean Hydro would have been the largest and finest in Europe, sleeping and dining one thousand people weekly. Although a draft agreement had been drawn up before the war it was never entered into. The Proposers were most aggrieved that the Council had considered allowing the film company use of the site. They now took it for granted that they could merrily proceed with their speculative venture. The Council decided not to proceed with the Hydro proposal. Below: Proposed film studio site

Neighbourhood Watch

Message from Denise Clark Chair of the Saltdean, Rottingdean, & Ovingdean Neighbourhood Watch This month we attended the last of the Summer Fairs where we always have a NHW stallâ&#x20AC;Ś The final one for the Summer was the Village Fair in Rottingdean, where 23 residents decided to become NHW members. It was good to talk to so many existing members, and also the wider community giving help and advice when needed. We were all struck by the amount of resident of Saltdean, Rottingdean & Ovingdean who came and spoke to us about anti social driving and parking in our lovely area. The concerns ranged from speeding dangerously in 20 mile per hour zones, to parking on grass verges, blocking pavements, and dangerous parking around school and shops, and of course using mobile phones whilst driving. We are all aware that car ownership is on the rise, and parking is becoming more difficult for us all, but we were struck by the effect that this has on our communities, and how upset people were. We already run regular Speedwatch sessions in our three villages, and the more volunteers we have will enable us to do more. (Please contact us if you are interested in finding out more information).

Speedwatch is not about penalising people, but reminding them about keeping to the speed limit, which is set at 20 or 30 mph, so that pedestrians etc have more chance of survival if struck by a vehicle, and is there to keep residents safer. Perhaps we could all think twice when driving and parking about the impact we are having on our beautiful area, and how we would like it to stay that way. Any incidents of Anti-social driving can be reported at www.operationcrackdown.org where there is a lot of information that is useful re other vehicle/parking issues. Another worry that surfaced is the worry of letting in utility workers and not being sure if they are genuine. Did you know you can create your own personal Password with the Companies, which their operative will have to tell you when they arrive? Check it out at www.safelocaltrades.com/news/articles/utility-passwordscheme and set one up. Enjoy the rest of the Summer safely and happily. For more information about Neighbourhood Watch or Speed Watch please contact secretary Linda Hood 01273 306441 or email nhw.sro-sec@hotmail.co.uk

Local Café

The Nomad Café Nestled under the trees just inside the stone entrance of Ovingdean Hall School, you’ll find The Nomad Café – housed in two beautifully converted shipping containers and run by two coffee obsessives. Primarily coffee roasters, the Roasted Bean Company are relocating their roastery to this site in the coming months, the café however is already open to the public and you can visit to enjoy an extensive specialty coffee menu (all freshly roasted that week), breakfast, brunch and lunch and other delights.

homemade soups and their toasted sandwiches are quirky and delicious. Cakes and biscuits are all locally baked by JoCo and the menu is a mixture of nostalgic delights such as almond macaroons or the scrumptious Sussex tea loaf; and wonderful new creations like the banana, walnut and honey muffin.

The café’s setting is tranquil and relaxing; the outdoor decking area teems with colour from a variety of beautiful summer plants. Their coffee offering is extensive and exciting, changing seasonally to keep up to date with fresh harvests in the coffee calendar. Their house espresso blend is also seasonal, and regular customers (and coffee lovers alike) have a unique opportunity to really explore the world of coffee and sample the best varieties from the four corners of the world. They offer all of their beautifully roasted single origins through a French Press and coffees can be complimented with one of four varieties of Nomad Café homemade fine syrups – their warm spiced latte was one we particularly enjoyed!

It’s not just coffee, there’s also a selection of outstanding specialty teas and their signature hot chocolate - made with homemade organic cacao created by the owners according to a special recipe – there is something exciting for everyone.

For their alternative milk drinkers, they offer up to four alternatives; Soya, Almond, Oat and Hemp. The food is simple, hearty and healthy. Seasonal, high quality and local vegetables are used for their

Cinema Saltdean Film Review

London Symphony

Cert. U

a special screening with the film’s Director: includes Q & A session The Cinema Saltdean volunteers are on hols now; we couldn’t get them to come off the beach and show a film for August. The projector is, however, cooling down and will be in fine fettle for September 26�� when we start our new season. What better way to start the season than with a special screening of the brand-new film ‘London Symphony’? Fresh from its première at the London Barbican Centre on 3�� September, Cinema Saltdean is one of the few venues where you can catch this film. We are thrilled to have director Alex Barrett with us to introduce and take questions on his new silent film ‘London Symphony’, which has a delightful orchestral score written especially for it, by James McWilliam. ‘London Symphony’ was nominated for the Michael Powell Award for Best British Film at the Edinburgh Film Festival. The film offers an artistic snapshot of the city as it stands today, and a celebration of its culture and diversity. It’s a contemporary take on the ‘city symphony’, a genre of creative non-fiction that flourished in the 1920s and consisted of works that attempted to build poetic portraits of city life. Barrett and McWilliam have worked hard to bring a similar sense of poetic playfulness to ‘London Symphony’, whilst also updating the form for the 21�� Century. There was never a London Symphony in the 1920s, although Berlin and Paris did have their own films.

modern buildings dominate the skyline, and signposts signal more construction work to come. We're swept through parks, streets and into cinemas, museums and places of religious congregation; people captured scuttling about their business, meeting for drinks and taking leisurely walks. These clash with tourists and those with more time on their hands, who are able to stop, take in and appreciate the sights. Animals, too, are captured, as much part of city life as people - from squirrels scuttling, to seagulls, which are more of a menace than they're shown to be here. The multicultural, diverse aspect of London is a particular focus of Barrett's. Mosques, Sikh temples and churches lie only metres away from one another; the different communities often shoehorned together into tight spaces. London Symphony is a loving ode to the heart of the United Kingdom, a city that's seen but not always truly appreciated. With acknowledgement to Jamie Neish for part of the above. Jon Screening on October 24��: “Lion”

This will be Alex’s second feature film. and his second feature. He states: ‘The aim of the film was to capture a city at a very specific point in its history, and the “story” is told over four chapters, intended to represent the movements of a symphony.’ Shot in over 200 locations, in and around the outskirts of London, the power of images shows us a bustling, diverse and ever-changing capital. It's a short slice of city life that nods to the past but places its emphasis on the kind of place London is today - multicultural, full of building works and stunning architecture, with the old existing alongside the new. Cranes are everywhere, while big,

We are a small and friendly club,” says Alan Smallman “We hold competitions and have guest speakers to talk on various photographic subjects.” 7 – 20 September. “Visual Musings” is the title of Diane Avis’ painting exhibition. She lives outside Santa Fe in the foothills of New Mexico and has exhibited in New Mexico, California, Las Vegas and after her Grange exhibition, will have a solo show in Santa Fe. “I work primarily in oils on canvas and wood, though I also make prints and drawings. Art, like mythology, should act as a portal to the spiritual; a way to access the deeper meaning that is often missing in our day- to- day lives.” 21 September – 3 October. “Williams Nicholson was my greatgrandfather and I wanted the work for my show to be as a response to him in some way.” The words of the artist, Rafaele Wild Onshore Wind - R. Appleby Appleby. “It is wild places that inspire me – rock – seascapes – skyscapes and sometimes a flower.” Rafaele lives in Cumbria and having visited the Grange Gallery for the first time was “Delighted to be offered the chance to have an exhibition here.” During her exhibition, Rafaele will take part on 23 September in a Study Day at the Whiteway Centre, a joint event with the Rottingdean Preservation Society. “The Nicholson Family of Artists” will focus on the legendary artistic family and include the official opening of the re-furbished William Nicholson Studio by the Mayor of Brighton and Hove. There will be lectures on William Nicholson, Ben Nicholson; and one by Rafael about Ben Nicholson’s painter wife entitled “Winifred Nicholson and her family.” THE Grange Gallery, The Grange, The Green, Rottingdean. Opening times: 10.30 - 16.00 Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday (closed Wednesday) and Sunday 14.00 - 16.00. After having visited the exhibitions, why not relax in the lovely Edwin Lutyens / Gertrude Jekyll tea garden? You can indulge yourself on the courtyard, on the lawn or in the newly renovated small barn which has been renamed the Gertrude Jekyll room.

Local Slimming World Group

Slimming World Rottingdean Last June Vicki King, 36, walked through the doors of the Rottingdean Slimming World group wanting to lose weight. She has gone on to lose 3 stone in just over a year! Over the past few years Vicki had gained weight and thought about what she could do. Watching a friend at work getting to her target with Slimming World made Vicki think about giving it a go, after trying other methods, so she searched for the group closest to home and found a very local one! Lis, the Rottingdean consultant, remembers how shy Vicki was when she first came to group. " Vicki would speak to very few people and would slide out of the door hoping that no one would speak to her." After a couple of months Lis noticed that Vicki was starting to make friends at group, was relaxing and starting to have fun. "At that time I noticed that Vicki was beginning to share more ideas for Food Optimising, at group. She really was coming out of her shell!" She then asked Vicki to join the social team, of which she has been a valuable member for some time, now. Vicki enjoys a variety of foods, one of her favourites is Spaghetti Bolognese. "Before Slimming World I

used to buy the jars of pasta sauce and add the meat, now I absolutely love making my own from scratch using a tin of chopped tomatoes, lots of veggies and lean mince. My fiance enjoys the flavours too!". When Vicki got to her target, at the beginning of August, she had a surprise for the whole group! Since starting her Slimming World journey Vicki has started to embrace exercise and has found that she loves it so much that she has joined a gym. Not only that but she told everyone that she has signed up to become a personal trainer! If you would like to lose weight please come along to our friendly group which is held on Wednesdays at 5.30 and 7.30 at Our Lady of Lourdes School, The Green, Rottingdean For more information please ring Lis on 07866 469402 or just come along!
