Butlin's home plan anger BITTER protestors were labelled a rabble as they vented their anger at the approval of plans for a Butlin's staff home in Bognor Regis. Some of the 30 or so opponents of the scheme for the former Ashley House angrily shouted out when they left the Arun District Council meeting on Wednesday afternoon. Cries of 'Oh no', 'That's not democracy'
and 'It was already decided' could be heard as the objectors nosily made their way from the development control committee. Committee chairman Cllr Jacqueline Maconachie briefly halted the meeting to allow the disturbance to end. She accused the members of the public of being a rabble. "Try to behave with a degree of courtesy as you would
do when you attend an official meeting," she demanded. This prompted further outcries from the final residents to leave the meeting. Two of the protestors had strongly spoken out about the holiday company's plans for the empty care home. But their comments failed to persuade enough councillors to overturn their planning officers' advice and reject the

£1.6m scheme. The committee voted 7-6, with one abstention, in favour of the proposal. Immediately after the decision was made, Butlin's resort director Jeremy Pardey could be seen in the foyer of the council's offices talking to a handful of the objectors in an attempt to overcome their protests.

RISING bollards should be installed to stop accidents on Bognor Regis High Street. Cllr Phil Hitchins said the traffic control measure was needed at either end of the town centre road. They would emphasise the fact cars and vans were banned from the road's central portion. "Bus drivers would trigger the bollards and they would stop cars going through," he said. "I know Arun and the Joint Western Arun Area Committee want them but the county council said they did not have the money to pay for them." Cllr Hitchins, a Conservative Arun District councillor for Aldwick West, said he had seen the problems caused when drivers wrongly went over the raised road surface which encourages pedestrians to mix with traffic between The awarding of the ten year The awarding greenspace of the ten year greenspacethe London Road precinct and The maintenance contractmaintenance was recently contract was recentlyArcade. agreed by Arun's cabinet. agreed It willby run Arun's fromcabinet.

DRINKS and snacks will be available from a cafe to be opened in a popular seafront site in Aldwick. The refreshments will be served up from a renovated building in Marine Park Gardens, pictured below. The creation of the service forms part of the new contract which Arun District Council has signed with ISS Facility Services Landscaping to look after its key green spaces. ISS has pledged to invest more than £650,000 on improving the areas. This includes creating an impressive adventure golf facility at Hotham Park as well as a free public challenge fitness course at East Beach Green in Littlehampton and improvements to Norfolk Gardens in the town. Free to use tennis courts will also be provided. Consultations will be carried out by the council and the company to help to shape the planned improvements. The contract will cover the upkeep of the council's parks, cemeteries and outdoor recreation facilities across the district as well as repairs and maintenance to more than 70 play areas. Cllr Terence Chapman, Arun's cabinet member for environmental services, said: "We are proud of our 240 hectares of parks and open spaces in Arun. I am very pleased that ISS Facility Services Landscaping has been awarded this innovative new contract. "I am confident that they will deliver a high-quality service and, working closely with the council, help it to deliver its priorities."
the High Street. Aldwick councillor Molly Myers said: "The High Street is an accident waiting to happen. I have witnessed the situation on several occasions. "The white line and triangle on the road is almost by the William Hardwicke. By that time, cars are following the buses. I see buses going through and traffic following them." She suggested closing York Road in the western portion of the High Street to take away the traffic from that section. "I don't know if it would work but anything to my mind has to be better than what we have now." Cllr Michael Warden, Aldwick Parish Council's vice-chairman, said: "The sign on the High Street is not prominent enough or obvious to the drivers." He said he stopped a female driver who was approaching from the William Hardwicke side of the High Street but she only paused long enough for him to leave the road before she continued. But he said he had also seen reckless young people running around the road trying to make the bus drivers swerve and stop suddenly. Former bus driver Cllr Martin Lineham said he had spoken to some current drivers who had told him their tracking devices had seen a surge in alerts for sudden stops since the High Street re-opened. "People think they can walk across because it's all paving and they walk straight out in front of a bus," he said. Cllr Ron Hurstwaite said the problem was also caused by the high number of visitors who were unfamiliar with the town centre's road layout. County councillor Ashvin Patel (C, Bognor Regis West and Aldwick) said highways officers would be reviewing the signs in the High Street. West Sussex County Council spent £600,000 on improving the High Street. As well changes to the road surface, to make it more attractive to pedestrians, the pedestrian crossing near Clarence Road was upgraded, pavements were widened and new seating installed.

A BOGNOR Regis driver was injured by a motorcyclist while he was driving. The 19-year-old victim suffered a cut throat after his wing mirror was smashed and its glass went through his open window. He was taken to St Richard's Hospital in Chichester for treatment. The incident happened about 2.20pm last Friday. Police received a report of a collision between a car and a motorcycle in Summersdale Road close to its junction with Blomfield Drive. The motorist was driving a silver Ford Focus when a motorcyclist - unprovoked - leaned across and smashed the wing mirror. His partner and their baby were also in the vehicle. A Sussex Police spokesman said: "The suspect was dressed all in black and was wearing a black helmet and riding a black motorcycle. "He was seen to continue north along Summersdale Road and then left into The Broadway." Anyone who saw what happened, or who saw the motorcyclist in the area before or after the incident, has been asked to email: 101@sussex.pnn.police. uk or call 101, quoting serial 864 of 05/08.
included in the agenda for the meeting. We will also discuss the routing of the buses to see if anything can be done. "I would urge motorists to read the signs, obey the rules of the road and help to make this area safe for pedestrians." He asked them to plan journeys to ATMs and use the free public car parks rather than drive along the High Street. Paul Wells, a Lib Dem district councillor for Hotham, said: "I have been saying for a long time that the High Street should be pedestrianised. It would be really conducive to becoming a centre point for the town centre in the way the cross is in Chichester. "Do the buses really need to go through that central part of the town? They went along Belmont Street for several months while the work was being carried out in the High Street. It's time for a rethink."

High Street debate AN INITIAL debate is to be held about the potential safety risks on the newlook High Street in Bognor Regis. The matter will be discussed at the next meeting of the highways and transport sub-committee of parish, district and county councillors on August 24. The Post has highlighted the possible dangers from the new raised paving where the High Street passes the London Road precinct and The Arcade to encourage pedestrians to walk across while buses travel along the road. Four temporary warning signs have been put by the county council on the area. County councillor Graham Jones (I, Felpham), pictured above, chairs the sub-committee and said the county council had been quick to react to public safety concerns with the signs.

` 400 homes plan moves closer A MAJOR development of 400 homes in Pagham is getting closer. Arun District Council has provided its scoping and screening opinions to Hunterpage planning about the proposed scheme on land south of Summer Lane and west of Pagham Road. A screening opinion is the council's assessment of whether an environmental statement should be submitted with the formal planning application. The scoping review is its view of what matters an environmental statement with the application should contain. Jenny Henderson, of Hunterpage planning, told Arun: "The site comprises three parcels of land lying to the south of Summer Lane and west of Pagham Road, extending to approximately 20 hectares. "The land to the north of Summer Lane has permission for 90 houses. "As part of this permission, the area of the land to the northeast of the proposed site will become an area of natural open green space and public amenity area." The housing - being planned by Hanbury Properties - will include affordable housing and include community facilities like small retail shops and a new sports pitch.

Business is booming for manager Mike and his team at Worrell and Fry
wading through the myriad of comparison sites and direct insurers promoting this offer and that deal, it is ever so reassuring to realise that not all insurance brokers are the same.
TALK to Michael Maskell about insurance and within the merest hint of time you’ll realise just why business is booming for Worrell Fry and Co Limited. Worrell Fry, situated in busy Aldwick Road, has been satisfying customers for 25 years in Bognor Regis and their unswerving commitment to a principled approach means that not only do they have satisfied folks repeating their business, but a new tranche of clientele keen to let the experts do the work on their behalf.

The company, which prides itself on being innovative and excelling in identifying insurance solutions for both individuals and companies, takes time to identify specific requirements and make recommendations that offer wide ranging cover at competitive premiums.

"How ridiculous is it to say the parking is all right? This is unneighbourly and out of keeping. I'm totally against it." Cllr Jacky Pendleton (C, Middleton) also protested and said the hostel would house too many residents. Cllr Ricky Bower (C, East Preston) called on Butlin's to withdraw the plans to overcome the concerns with a new proposal. As the Post revealed in May, Butlin's will impose a 10pm-7am curfew on its staff who live in the hostel. A manager will also be on site. Staff who break the strict conditions of living there three times will be told to leave. A mini-bus service to the holiday resort, just over a mile away, and ample cycle stands will encourage staff to go without cars. Jeremy Pardey, the Butlin's resort director, told the committee that refurbishment work at the building would increase its noise insulation to lessen the chance of disturbances. "Our safety team will have full access to CCTV there 24/7 and there will be a direct phone line for all residents if they have any concerns at all," he said. All occupants would be permanent members of staff who had lived on the resort for at least two years. The prospect of the hostel saw 173 letters of objection received by Arun. Aldwick Parish Council also protested. Cllr Terry Mullins said it believed there were too many staff for the size of the rooms. Deborah Martin was one of two residents who spoke out about the plans. "I recognise Butlin's is a major business here but there is no reason why they should be allow to create such a large house of multiple occupation in a residential area," she said.

Beavers Beavers help tohelp save to save Pagham Pagham beachbeach from from threatthreat of flooding of flooding by Kevin Smith kevin.smith@sussexpost.co.uk 01243 908506 ext 11 FROZEN assets proved lucrative for young money-makers who have helped to save Pagham from flooding. Two members of Aldwick and Pagham Beavers raised £300 by selling ice lollies for the community efforts to stop the erosion of Pagham Beach. Graham Salter, of the Aldwick and Pagham Sea Scouts, said Bertie Kirby and Joe Sherwood had acted after they had seen the devastated foreshore following a visit to their pack by Pagham councillor and Pagham Flood Defence Trust member Ray Radmall. "This spurred the imagination of Bertie, aged six, who with passion announced that he must arrange to help raise money for this important community project," said Graham. Bertie's enthusiasm prompted his friend, seven-year-old Joe, to join him in an ice lolly sale at Rose Green Infant and Junior schools' outdoor play days this summer along with Bertie's mother and Beaver Leaders. Mr Salter said: "The weather was on his side and his entrepreneurial efforts were rewarded and the Beavers presented a £300 cheque to the Pagham Flood Defence Trust. "These lads showed true community spirit and were commended for their efforts by Ray Radmall. "The task of fundraising by donations to this cause is more important than ever." The fundraising formed part of their My Wood Challenge Award. Cllr Radmall's presentation to the pack of 23 Beavers, aged six to eight, saw him explain the damaging effect of beach erosion and shingle starvation in front of West Front Road caused by the offshore Church Norton Spit. He used Environment Agency flood maps and historic maps to show the extent of the damage. He explained how the parish council had compiled a planning application for a managed breach of the spit and use the excavated materials to block the existing tidal channel along Pagham beach. Cllr Radmall received the cheque from
the Beavers on the foreshore and praised their efforts. "The ethics and founding principles of the Scouting organisation are beyond praise. What an example they have set," he said. He said the total cost of the scheme to cut a channel in the growing Church Norton Spit and block the adjacent tidal inlet with a shingle barrier was likely to be £700,000. A further £150,000 was still needed. But he hoped this would not stop work taking place to protect the lowlying area for this winter. "We would hope to start work during very early September and hope to complete it before the predicted winter storms," he said. "The current tidal breach near Pagham Harbour is out of control and moving our shingle offshore, eventually to end up in Bognor Regis. The beachfront flood resilience remains very poor. "If we are not to lose a large part of Pagham in future years, we must start the process of managing and rebuilding our shingle frontage and securing it against erosion by installing a new groyne field." Ray said many people in the area still did not realise the situation that could arise if severe storms washed away the remaining shingle. Both the Environment Agency and Arun District Council had predicted a breach of the seafront by Pagham Yacht Club, significant loss along East Front Road and a resulting storm-driven tidal surge inland as far as The Green and Abbotsbury. Planning officers at Arun are continuing to assess the parish council's planning application. It is not yet known when they will make their decision. Parish councillors also discussed the current situation at their latest meeting on Tuesday. The planning proposal has received a mass of support from residents. Among the most recent supporters is Harbour Road resident Victoria Hoskyns. She told Arun: "I firmly support the application to breach the spit and the sooner this is done the better. "This will make life for residents and businesses alike more secure and will breathe a new lease of life into a stunning part of our coastline. Please make haste."

Hollyann is centre's first to gain place at university as she seeks to become a fashion designer HANDS-ON experience has led to a Bognor Regis fashion fan gaining a place at university. Hollyann Tullett has become the first apprentice with My Sisters' House women's centre to get accepted as an undergraduate. She will start her degree course in fashion, design and business studies at Brighton University next month. Her sights are set on joining a leading fashion brand such as Alexander McQueen or Ralph and Russo. "I will have a year's internship during my course," she said, "and I would like to spend it at a haute couture brand. "All their items are handmade. It's not about making a profit. It's about the design and a lot of effort are put into their clothes. It's about making a statement and wowing and shocking people with them. You get a reaction from what you have designed." Hook Lane resident Hollyann, 19, credits her past year at the Bognor Regisbased centre in helping to get her started. She has spent four days a week
upcycling donated fabrics and clothes into must-have items as well as repairing and altersewing and mending clothes. This work has increased since the centre's Makers Boutique opened a few doors along London Road in July. She turned to the London Road centre, a community interest company, after her A-levels at Felpham Community College failed to gain her a university place. Hollyann said: "The team here work so well together. We are really supportive of each other and it's nice to be working with people who have so much experience. I've learned so much in terms of making clothes." Hollyann was the first apprentice to be taken on by My Sisters' House - just ahead of Jade Sherwell - and she hopes many more young people will have the chance to follow her. The centre is looking to create six apprenticeships to enable it to offer a specialist fashion experience for those interested in the subject and link with Felpham Community College for their formal education.

` Tax checks CHECKS are set to begin on Bognor Regis area residents who claim the single person discount on their council tax bills. Arun District Council is about to start its latest annual search, with credit reference agency Experian, on a sample of the 24,000 households who receive the 25 per cent saving. Claimants may be contacted by Arun to find out if their current situation matches the facts on their file. Those whose lives have changed will lose their discount. Senior councillor Dudley Wensley said those who wrongly claimed the discount cheated the system and placed an unfair burden on those who were honest. Last year's checks recouped more than £200,000 and 500 discounts were cancelled.

by Kevin Smith kevin.smith@sussexpost.co.uk 01243 908506 ext 11 FORMER Britain's Got Talent contestant Paul Manners will be singing for visitors at a Yapton home's summer fete. Paul will be visiting Warmere Court for the afternoon party on Sunday. He will perform songs from his latest album, Hold You in My Arms. Paul narrowly missed out reaching the semi-finals in the 2015 series of the talent show. But he has recently signed a deal with a record company in London and has also appeared in the ITV reality
show, Judge Rinder. There will also be a performance from Bognor Regis area singer Stacy Turner. She will be joined by schoolchildren from the Shine group. Mary Latter, the manager of Warmere Court care home, said: "One of our staff members knew Paul before his TV debut and asked him for a photograph as a raffle prize when we were first planning the fete. "To our surprise, he offered to come along and perform for us on the day, which is brilliant. "Having a Britain's Got Talent star topping the bill has really added to the excitement and we are all looking
forward to welcoming members of the public to Warmere Court to join our residents in a fun-filled afternoon, which will help to raise money to go towards special days out." Hold You in My Arms is Paul's debut EP since his appearance on the TV talent show. It features four tracks. As well as the title one, they are Inspirational, Soca 'Til The Morning Comes and Jazz Inferno. Paul's supporters include entertainer Peter Andre and The Only Way Is Essex actor Gemma Collins. As well as musical entertainment, the care home will be holding a raffle, including autographs from Paul, as well
as donations from businesses in the area, such as a free pamper afternoon and money off vouchers. The fete will begin at 2pm at the Downview Way site and tickets cost £2 to include food and drinks. Profits will be used to fund additional activities for its residents. Warmere Court is run by Shaw healthcare and provides specialist nursing and residential care. Shaw healthcare organises care for individuals in nursing and residential homes, hospitals, supported living environments and domiciliary care schemes. It has more than 80 sites across the country.

TWO new classrooms are planned to help a Rose Green school cope with extra pupils. The modular unit for 32 children in each room are set to be installed at Rose Green Junior School. West Sussex County Council has applied for planning permission for the unit. It hopes the structure will be in place for the start of term next month. A statement by the council's planning agent, Pellings, says: "The unit is to be installed on site during the summer break of 2016 due to the rapid rise of pupil numbers and the need for further space for general teaching." Projections show the school's current buildings in Raleigh Road will be too small at 360 to accommodate the expected number of pupils in the next seven years. Next month is due to see 393 children receive their education at the school with a 'bulge' year intake of 114 youngsters from the nearby infant school joining. In September 2019, pupil numbers will peak at 407 before they decline to 386 in each of the following three years. Pupils aged seven to 11 have been earmarked to be taught in the new classrooms. They will be contained in a single storey building of about 160 square metres. Made from galvanised steel, it is expected to take a day to deliver and four weeks to prepare the site. It will be accessed directly from the existing Tarmac playground by extending the boundary to the building's entrance.
` Wellbeing deal A NEW three-year contract has been awarded to Arun District Council's Wellbeing Team. The deal with West Sussex County Council means the team will carry on delivering services across the Arun district until 2019. Arun Wellbeing, in place since April 2009, supports residents to reduce their risk of heart disease and preventable cancers through small lifestyle changes.

Skydive nears for Charlotte THRILL-SEEKING Charlotte Manville is counting the days until she plummets to earth at 125mph. Charlotte will be skydiving in aid of Parkinson's UK and the Donald Wilson Unit at St Richard's Hospital in Chichester. She is taking to the sky above Salisbury on September 18 and will be jumping from 15,000ft with the first section in freefall. Charlotte, 28, of Devonshire Road, said: "I'm really excited about my skydive. I'm impatient and I can't wait to do it. "I wish it was sooner than it is. I've seen a video of the skydive and it looks really exciting." Mum-of-two Charlotte hopes to raise at least £500 to be divided between the two good causes. Her fundraising has been prompted by the devastating impact of Parkinson's on her father, Frank Fry. He ran five greengrocery shops around Bognor Regis, including one next to
the Post Office in the High Street, but was diagnosed with Parkinson's when Charlotte was aged 14. His condition worsened about seven years later and doctors discovered he had a Parkinson's-related dementia called louiebody. He is now in a Petworth home where he can live in comfort with end stage Parkinson's aged 77. "It's an absolutely shocking condition," said Charlotte. "The more people who ar aware of it, the better." She said her dad had suffered from aggression, obsession, anger and heightened emotions as his condition deteriorated. "It was hard to find my dad in the man who was looking at me," she said. "He looked like my dad but didn't always behave like him. That was a really hard thing to process."

to do was to go round the parishes and towns to discuss the future of the toilets with them." He said the way Arun had announced the toilets' closure without informing other councils first was wrong. "It put everybody on their high horses, saying it was disgusting and dreadful and everything else - and hopefully it is not." The figures from Arun show the council's total running costs for the West Meads toilets to be £14,179 a year plus a £29,750 capital cost for the next five years. For Avisford Park, the district council's costs are £13,732 with £48,500 capital costs. Aldwick Parish Council currently contributes an annual £7,300 towards the running costs. As reported, Arun wants to cut its number of toilets in the Bognor Regis area all year as part of a £4m savings target. They will include a new above ground facility on the seafront to replace the two underground sites. Some others will be restricted to Easter and summer opening. Those at West Meads will only open when sports fixtures take place. Avisford Park is among those due to shut completely. Any changes are due to come into effect next year. Also invited to join the informal talks in Aldwick will be representatives of West Meads residents who have argued for their public toilet to stay open. Carole Wiseman, the secretary of West Meads Residents' Association, asked to be included in the discussions. She said: "We are extremely concerned about this as we will have the environmental fallout if they do close. "This is a matter extremely important to us. I have represented the people of West Meads for 24 years. They are very upset and angry."

INFORMAL talks are to be held by Aldwick's councillors about saving the area's loos. The discussions will take place in the next few weeks to find out if the parish councillors are able to keep open the sites at Avisford Park and West Meads. The meeting will be followed by a formal session of the council by the end of next month to agree its policy. The decision to stage the talks was agreed by the councillors on Monday. They were handed information from Arun District Council, which has decided to drastically cut its number of toilets, and is seeking the opinions of local councils about the buildings' futures. Aldwick Parish Council chairman Cllr Lillian Richardson said: "We can either read through all this information now or we can hold an informal meeting and hammer out all the pros and cons of what can and can't be done with the toilets and what the costs are. "We can bring that back to a formal extraordinary meeting if necessary and put forward any decision to that." She said a chat about the situation had been held the previous week with Arun officers and Cllr Phil Hitchins, the chairman of the district council's environment services and community development working group. Cllr Alan Smith, who chairs the parish council's finance committee, said it was important to conside the fact it might be necessary to rebuild the loos at Avisford Park recreation ground in Nyetimber Lane. Cllr Hitchins (C, Aldwick West) told the parish council: "An informal meeting is easily the best way of dealing with this and then producing a good report. "We should have been having this conversation before Arun's ccc cccc committee met. "The first thing that committee agreed

` Pokemon tour DOZENS of Pokemon fans are catching the coach from Bognor Regis for a special tour. The first coach organised by the town's Woods Travel for the trip linked to the smartphone app was filled in less than 24 hours. A second coach has been lined up to give another 49 people the chance to join in. The one-off journey at £2 a seat on August 20 will head to Southsea, Portsmouth and Arundel. There is also the chance to head to the Pokemon hotspot of Gosport. A Woods Travel spokeswoman said: "The tour will stop at destinations where passengers can hunt for those elusive characters missing from their Pokedex, collect goodies from Pokestops and showcase their battling abilities in gyms."
` Cinema access MINOR changes to the access for a planned fourth screen at the Picturedrome Cinema in Bognor Regis have been backed by planning officers. The alterations will improve the means of getting in and out of the extension with a 114-seat auditorium. They were put forward by Bognor Regis Town Council, which owns the Grade II listed building, and approved by Arun District Council officials. The town council's £850,000 plans for the extra screen were approved by Arun last July. The extension will be sited behind the current building.

Artistic students will have work seen by thousands
THOUSANDS of visitors are set to enjoy art created by Bognor Regis students. A total of 13 pupils at The Regis Academy were chosen to have their works displayed at this year's summer exhibition at Arundel Museum. The academy's contingent is the largest among the 73 works on show until August 29. This includes the popular Arundel Festival and Arundel Art Trail events. Suzanne Evans, the museum's education consultant, said: "This is the culmination of six months work of going around schools in the area. I viewed something like 500 works. "We had our first summer exhibition last year and it was viewed by 200-300 people a day. This year's is on for longer and it will be seen by thousands of people a day." All the artwork formed part of the students' GCSE or A-level course work. The first Regis Academy student whose work can be seen just inside the entrance to the Mill Road museum is Beth Boden, pictured left. The 15-year-old's mixed media work is called The Tiger's Eye. "It's good to have work on display here," she said. "It's exciting that so many people are going to see it. I like being creative and making things." Her tiger is symbolic of the natural beings which mankind has tried to destroy since the world began. Megan Ford, 18, pictured middle, had her acrylic portrait of Tyler chosen. She said: "He's a really close friend I met during art. he made the whole experience
better. So, I thought I would immortalise him in paint. "Having this painting on display makes me feel like an artist and it makes me confident I can create more." Oliver Rooney, 16, pictured right, painted a journey into the past for his selected GCSE work. The acrylic work is a tryptic of a car made up of models from the Thirties, the present day and the future set against a changing New York backdrop. "The theme was the past, present and future and a car seemed the best way to do it," he said. "It's my first time in an exhibition. I like painting. It's relaxing and it relieves stress and I do it my free time." The exhibition was opened last Saturday by Neil Lawson Baker, the scuiptor, artist and chairman of National Open Art. He said: "The quality and standard of this exhibition is superb. Congraulations to all of you. "Whoever you are and whatever you are involved in, to get shown in an exhibition is hugely important." Other Regis Academy pupils involved are Bethany Sheridan, Faye Howes, Jasmin Seagroatt, Jennifer Harmsworth, Holly Passmore, Wilfred Bond, Callum Pearson, Kinga Urbanska, Natalie Cowen and Faye Howes. Other schools featured included Bishop Luffa CofE School, Chichester High School, Christ's Hospital, Lancing College, The Littlehampton Academy, Slindon College anf St Philip Howard Catholic High School.

FirstFirst festival will will bring music to an festival bring music to an orchard for an mixture orchard forap-peeling an ap-peeling mixture by Kevin Smith kevin.smith@sussexpost.co.uk 01243 908506 ext 11
f Thousands of litres of fresh juice are produced
f Core Fest will be a first for the f Core Festsite will be a first for the site
MUSIC for all tastes will be on offer at a unique event in Walberton this weekend. The first Core Fest is taking place amid thousands of trees in the orchard at HFT Sussex. Bands such as The Beatles For Sale, The Speak, Dolly Doom and the Toucan Shuffle will be on stage among the Russets, the Melroses and the Fortunes. Juice from the apples will be pressed and immediately sold to thirsty musiclovers to bring them closer to nature. And the ten-hour event from midday tomorrow at the large Eastergate Lane site has free admission. Paul Kemp, one of the registered cluster workers at the home for adults with learning disabilities, said: "We had a traditional village fete years ago but we want to do far more with the site. It's a lovely area and we would like as many people as possible to enjoy it. "It will help us to raise awareness of people with disabilities. We want to get the guys here involved with the public and the public involved with them. "Yes, there are differences. We all have differences but we are all the same at heart." Core Fest will also offer RepTylers Mobile Zoo, entertainers, games and a licensed area. A donation of £5 a person is suggested.
It will be learning disability friendly and inclusive for everyone. Among the residents taking part will be Sarah Baylis, 51, She is one of the longestestablished inhabitants at HFT Sussex and will be using her apple pressing skills to provide fresh juice to spectators. She has plenty of practice. Last year saw 33,000 75cl, 33cl and 25cl bottles produced under the Sussex Orchards brand and sold to various outlets in the area. "I like putting the apples in the mulcher. It's good fun," she said. "I pick the apples with a long stick, which I have to twist to get them off. "I like living here. There are six of us in my house. A total of 40 adults live at HFT Sussex in a mixture of multi-bed houses and smaller properties. A larger number of staff look after them and volunteers help with specific tasks like the juice bottling and the woodwork sessions where unwanted furniture is given some TLC to become bird tables or flower pot wheelbarrows. "This provides skills and employment opportunities for our guys," said Paul, "and stops the furniture going to waste." The charity-run site was established about 30 years and undergone several name changes. It has largely remained a hidden secret but last year saw entries in some Bognor Regis events like the carnival, Birdman and illuminations gala - and winning prizes as well. That run continued in June's carnival
and last month saw a successful Gruffalo weekend attract 600 visitors during its three days after a smaller occasion in 2015 based on the popular children's book. Paul said: "We used it to raise money to create a sensory garden but also to show people what we've got here." "We will be holding another Gruffalo event next summer, " Paul said, "because so many people have asked us to stage it again." The garden will cost some £5,000 to create and will link two buildings with a covered walkway. Work is also gradually being carried out to make as much of the area as accessible as possible in keeping with the rural surroundings.

f Fun for all ages at the country fair
Country fair needs help HELP is needed for future country fairs. The organiser of this year's 15th of the crowd-pulling events said more volunteers were required to give the summer fixture a more assured future. Debbie Northcott said: "The one thing we've lacked this weekend is volunteers. A team of eight of us have staged the
fair. The Hotham Park Heritage Trust's membership is dwindling and we are looking for active members who will help us out. "If the fair did not happen, it would be such a great loss for Bognor Regis and it would be a shame. With more helpers, that won't happen." Helpers were required for a variety of roles, she added.

Archery is popular new attraction at country fair HAWK-EYED Dylan Fairburn proved a keen shot as archery appeared at a Bognor Regis event for the first time. Ten-year-old Dylan marked his debut with a bow and arrow by hitting the target at the Hotham Park Country Fair from some eight metres away. His sure-handed success at the Apollo Archery range was enjoyed by the young holidaymaker from Walsall. He said: "I enjoyed it. It was the first time I had held a bow. I liked the feeling that I was a proper archer. "I was pretty pleased with how I did. I hit the target most times." His father, Stephen Fairburn, 46, said: "This is our second day at Butlin's and we thought we would come out and have a look around. "It's beautiful weather and it's been a good day. We've loved it. The stalls have some good stuff for sale. "We're very impressed. We don't have anything like this in Walsall. We tend to have fairs with rides." Felpham man John Bridgeman-Hills, 52, directed his arrows on to the bullseye towards the end of his time as an archer. The former member of the armed forces used his experience with firearms. "It's bit like being on a firing range," he said. "You use the first few shots to get your eye in and then hit the target the last three times in a row. It's disappointing when you have to finish. "I'd never used a bow and arrow before. It was really relaxing. You feel like you are in a bubble because you are just concentrating on the target."
He said it was the fourth country fair he and his wife had attended. "We like to see all the crafts and it's nice to see people out enjoying themselves," he said. "There are a lot of different crafts worth looking at." The range was run by archer Glenn Collis, 40, from Rustington. He estimated 40 people had tried their skills by mid-afternoon on the first day. "They've been all ages from four to 80/90. That's the thing about archery. Anyone can do it and that applies to people with disabilities as well. It's all about hand to eye co-ordination." The temporary archers were using a recurve
bow as a modified version of a design used since medieval times and in historic battles like Agincourt. Elsewhere among the country fair's 82 stalls was the chance to handle a 13ft Burmese python or a bearded dragon with Reptylers,making their first appearance, enjoy the appealing alpacas from Dunreath Alpacas or come under the watchful gaze of the Owls About birds. They included Misty the Harris Hawk, Whisper the African spotted eagle owl, Amber the long-eared owl and Canadian great grey owl, Phantom.

Art in park is a bright idea by Kevin Smith kevin.smith@sussexpost.co.uk 01243 908506 ext 11 A MINI Mona Lisa was among the masterpieces created by young visitors to the Hotham Park Country Fair. Organisers at the Hotham Park Heritage Trust staged the first Paint the Park stall during this year's free event. The invitation to create an artwork was eagerly seized by children. Among them were Felpham sisters Amiah Lewis, one, and Azaleah, aged three. Their dad, Terrell Lewis, 28 tomorrow, said Amaih had painted her version of the Mona Lisa. For Azaleah, it was Picasso who had captured her imagination with a green and red-dominated artwork of many colours. "We want our daughters to explore their creative side," said Terrell. "It's really important they do that. It's amazing to see them do that." Their painting was among dozens which had created a 36ft long montage displayed by the park's ornamental pond by the end of the fair's first day. Terrell said they had been to last year's event as well. "It's all the family
entertainment they have got here which is good. We also like the arts and crafts. "We have been in Felpham for 18 months after moving from London and we love things like this. It's all the community relationships which are here which are good," he said. His wife, Sharna Lewis, 29 tomorrow, said: "There is everything for all ages here. It's the variety we like." As well as the artwork, the heritage trust also offered children the chance to make owls with cones among the artistic uses of natural objects from the park. One of the trust's trustees, Sue Harris, said: "The children have loved the painting and they like seeing their work on display. It also brightens up the park." Other activities at the park for the estimated 10,000 visitors to enjoy at the 15th of the fairs included a circus skills workshop. coconut shy, a zorb racer and chance to go fishing in buckets with the West Kent and Sussex Sea Fishing Club. Bandstand entertainment came from first time performers Fantastic Celebration Samba, Fabulous Eight Beat Jive Dancers, the Iolar Band and the Amber Jones Jazz Quintet among a packed programme of music.

Children have chance to shape park's future
f Donkey rides were popular
YOUNG voters had the chance to choose the sculptures they would like to see in Hotham Park in Bognor Regis. Nearly 100 of them had stated their choice towards the end of last Saturday. The early favourite during the two-day event was Alice in Wonderland with 43 votes. Winnie the Pooh received backing from 32 children and Nursery Rhymes were the choice of 19. Jess Finch, ten, of Bognor Regis, said Alice in Wonderland was her favourite. "Alice is imaginative and she needs to find out why she keeps having the dreams about wonderland," she said. Her younger brother, Luke Finch, nine, choose Winnie the Pooh. "I like the cartoon characters," he said. "They make me smile." Their mum, Becky Finch-Sampson, 43, said: "This is the first time we have been here. We will probably be back next year. "There's a lot of people here and things to do for everybody and there's a really nice atmosphere." The wooden sculptures based on the winning subject will be placed around the park by the Hotham Park Heritage Trust subject to its funding bids being successful. Their numbers and their height, up to 3-4ft, will depend on how much money is awarded. Their cost will vary from £800-6,000 for the initial installation. Heritage trust chairman Rosemary Warren said: "The sculptures will be art for the children to touch and play with."

He said: "Lots of people stop and talk to her and make a fuss of her. She loves the attention. "I have three miniature ponies. She is the most placid and the most composed with people. I do let some young children sit on her but it's not really about that for me. It's about caring for 11 horses I look after.

Film-goers get the horn at city's Casablanca love-in
Take a tour at Pallant House Time to see major exhibition of the hearlded work of hugely infleuntial Christopher Wood plus discover work by Henry Moore amongst others... SOPHISTICATED Primitive is the title of the major Christopher Wood exhibition which is at Pallant House Gallery until October. It is described as a major exhibition on the life and art of British artist Wood (1901-1930). The gallery’s website says as an important and influential figure in the British art world during the 1920s, Wood developed a ‘faux-naïve’ style as he navigated a path between the representational painting of the Edwardian era and the new style of abstraction of the 1930s. A celebration of the magnitude of the artist’s achievement in the ten years before his premature death, aged just 29, this comprehensive review explores the enduring paradox between the primitive and the sophisticated in Wood’s oeuvre. Pallant House Gallery's collection is described as one of the best in the UK. Take a tour and discover important works by Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, Ivon Hitchens, Henry Moore, John Piper, Graham Sutherland, Patrick Caulfield, Michael Andrews, Peter Blake and many more and learn about how their wonderful minds work and what stories lay beneath their work.
Summer variety is spice of life Make sure that you catch legendary all-round entertainer Bobby Crush along with funnyman Paul James, billed as the 'comedians' comedian' THIS summer, variety is back in a big way at the Regis Centre. In a show that harks back to the glory days of summer at the seaside, this variety performance will showcase the best in professional and local talent. The line-up features renowned pianist and entertainer Bobby Crush. Few entertainers can claim to have had as varied a career as Bobby, famous in the UK for over 40 years primarily as a pianist but also as a songwriter, broadcaster, actor and TV presenter. Then there is Paul James. Paul is an
comedian and has been performing for over 45 years. He is known in the business as “the comedians’ comedian” and is the resident funny man at London’s world famous Brick Lane Music Hall. The performance will also feature live music from the Andy Beaumont Swing Band, professional dancers and vocalists and more! This is the must-see performance of the summer, we are told. *Box Office: 01243 861010. Opening times: Mon to Sat 10am-4pm.

Okay, it wasn't quite as busy as Rick's Cafe with Victor Laszlo and chums one end and the Gestapo the other, and the band playing La Marseillaise in the middle, but a healthy number came out to see legendary performances from Bogey, Ingrid Bergman, Peter Lorre, Claude Reins and Paul Henreid.

MEET Roger Gibson, the artistic director of the Chichester Film Festival, the cinema’s consultant artistic director and founder of the Chichester Cinema at New Park. According to its website, Roger has been part of the Chichester arts scene since the 1960s, starting at the Chichester College as the ‘Chichester College Adult Education Film Society’ in September 1979. Films were shown on 16mm one evening a week for 24 weeks, plus a Saturday Junior Film Club. The first film shown by the Film Society was Woody Allen's ‘Love and Death’. This developed into an independent cinema,
now in its 37th year and which has won awards thanks to his programming and dealings with distributors and directors. Roger attends all the major film festivals: London, Cannes, Berlin, Karlovy Vary and Toronto to source a legendary mix of eclectic films, his ability to match the good ‘bums on seats’ ones with those which will meet arthouse expectations. But he prefers to open people’s worlds, not creating a niche, rather elitist-seeming market. He is not a one-man band. Jo, his wife, is equally a keen exponent of film and of social issues explored by this medium, “viewing things from a different angle.”

Pete’s Dragon Some secrets are too big to keep.
Nerve ))
The Shallows)
Release date: 11 August Director: Henry Joost, Ariel Schulman Starring: Emma Roberts, Dave Franco, Emily Meade
Release date: 12 August Director: Jaume Collet-Serra Starring: Blake Lively, Óscar Jaenada, Angelo Jose Genre: Drama, Horror, Thriller
Industrious high school senior, Vee Delmonico, has had it with living life on the sidelines. When pressured by friends to join the popular online game Nerve, Vee decides to sign up for just one dare in what seems like harmless fun. But as she finds herself caught up in the thrill of the adrenaline-fuelled competition partnered with a mysterious stranger, the game begins to take a sinister turn with increasingly dangerous acts, leading to a high stakes finale that will determine her future.
Jaume Collet-Serra takes the directorial reigns in the taut thriller The Shallows. Known for horror films (House of Wax) and a string of fast paced actions (Unknown, Non-Stop) expect to be sat on the edge of your seat! When Nancy is surfing on a secluded beach, she finds herself on the feeding ground of a great white shark. Millions of years of evolution have led the shark to do one thing: survive. Though she is stranded only 200 yards from shore, getting there proves the ultimate test of wills.
f Nerve f Pete’s Dragon Pete’s Dragon z Release date: 12 August Director: David Lowery Starring: Bryce Dallas Howard, Karl Urban, Robert Redford Genre: Adventure, Family For years, old wood carver Mr. Meacham (Robert Redford) has delighted local children with his tales of the fierce dragon that resides deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. To his daughter, Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard), who works as a forest ranger, these stories are
little more than tall tales… until she meets Pete (Oakes Fegley). Pete is a mysterious 10-year-old with no family and no home who claims to live in the woods with a giant, green dragon named Elliot. And from Pete’s descriptions, Elliot seems remarkably similar to the dragon from Mr. Meacham’s stories. With the help of Natalie (Oona Laurence), an 11-year-old girl whose father Jack (Wes Bentley) owns the local lumber mill, Grace sets out to determine where Pete came from, where he belongs, and the truth about this dragon. WETA Digital, the visual effects company founded by filmmaker Peter Jackson based in New Zealand, will utilise the latest in digital effects to bring the dragon, Elliott, to life.

` Muchos Burritos: Chichester Address: Chichester Gate, Chichester PO19 8EL Phone: 01243931988
ARuNdeL
FoR Anyone To Come And enjoy!
Muchos Burritos brings you Mexican sensations This is LOCO especially when it comes to FOOD. AS a food lover of all culinary cuisine and especially the spicy kind, I was excited to get down to popular restaurant Muchos Burritos in Chichester Gate to try out there authentic tasting Mexican dishes. Myself and my partner decided we needed somewhere different to try, and both being big exotic food fans we thought that hitting up this restaurant would be ideal on our day out. We headed to Chichester Gate where we spotted the huge, vibrant sign for the restaurant and we knew just from first impressions we would enjoy it. We were greeted by two lovely waitresses (and a serenading Spanish guitar band playing
through the stereo) and already we fell a little in love with the ambience. The seating areas are superb and spacious, perfect for a group or party of people. Each table supplied with a range of hot sauces to flavour your food and a sombrero just to make you feel at home. Close to becoming a national franchise, Muchos Burrito is venturing into giving their customers a gourmet and faithful taste of Mexico, all coming at a fabulous price range and offering something that all of the family can enjoy. My partner and I stared long and hard at the menu board; to be honest there was just so much to choose from, bursting out
`It's a Mexican sensation that you would be crazy to miss out on.
at us were a choice of burritos, quesadillas, tachos, nachos, salads, all with a choice of flavoursome fillings we decided in the end to test out these infamous burritos before tasting anything else, after all they are the speciality. Going up to the counter, you are taken down a stream of flavours and you pick and choose your fillings with the chef as you go, the aromas coming off the foods where undeniably taste-tingling and I could feel the spices even before they hit my tongue. I decided to go with a chicken base in my burrito and I could see whilst it was being dished up that it was cooked to perfection in an abundance of spices and flavours. The next big decision to make on my little burrito journey was the rice filling, they supply two favours of rices; one sweet with lime, the other spicy and hot (of course I chose the spicier option while my less brave significant other went for a sweeter taste) then we ventured to the next stage of our build-a-burrito, with adding a flavoursome batch of fiery beans which packed out the wrap with zing. Then on to packing it out with a choice of salads, starting with gorgeously tender roasted peppers all the way to the punch-packing jalapeños and that cool sour cream. Choices
of cheeses and salsas are also on offer to take a pick from but I decided to go for my all-time favourite Latin sauce, guacamole. Once my burrito was stuffed up to its limit, off they took it to their toasting facilities to seal in all that flavour, ready for my taste experience. As the waitress walked over with my finally finished dish, both myself and my partner couldn’t wait to taste what we had created. As we took the first bites into this enormous mound of Mexican greatness, we instantly looked at each other with beaming eyes, mouthfuls of smiles. The taste was impeccable, so many flavours circling our mouths and yet each compliments one another so effortlessly. The spices were just right for my pallet and for my partner's and the whole taste was a total treat to all senses. With the restaurant being right next door to Chichester Cineworld and bowling alley, my prediction is that this place will only get even more popular. With a vast menu offering such a huge variety of authentic Mexican dishes in a suitably authentic setting it's lovable, affordable and a place that offers something for everybody. Take our word for it, it's “Muy Asombroso”. DANIELLE KELLY

Carl & Angie welcome you to the Aviator bar and grill on the Esplanade. Food served every day 10am-9pm. Fantastic restaurant can host function, conferences & parties.
BAR and GRILL
The Aviator Bar & Grill is situated in Bognor Regis right on the seafront, and boasts modern, seafacing accommodation as well as an aviation-themed restaurant. The Aviator has two terraces with sea views and a separate bar with a screen showing sporting events. The chef prides himself on making the presentation of each dish stunning. The fillet steak, served with Portobello mushrooms and coleslaw is always a popular choice, but the beer-battered fish and chips, served on greaseproof newspaper with mushy peas in the shape of a fish steals the show. Serving a selection of ales, premium lagers and a wine list that includes miniature bottles of Prosecco, there's something for everyone at The Aviator Bar & Grill.
OPENING TIMES Mon-Sat: 10am - midnight Sunday: 10am - 11pm
I have just returned from La Belle France with a look at both the Nantes and Bordeaux regions. Nantes in Southern Brittany is a very chilled and unpolluted big city famous for its seafood and local wine featured in the photos at the ornate La Cigale restaurant which adorns the Place Graslin. The lobster medallions were exquisite and accompanied by a most crisp and refreshing Muscadet Sur Lie from a small local production area. If you fly to Nantes there is a special shuttle service every 20 minutes to Nantes station or the city centre where trams and outdoor cafe areas abound. The cost is 8 euros 50 and avoids you having to resort to an expensive taxi ride. La Place du Pilori is a lovely intimate eating area and I was able to revisit Lycee Clémenceau, where I used to work, with its grandiose frontage. Venturing via La Rochelle on a long, but interesting train journey I ended up in the delightful historic city of Bordeaux whose vineyards and cellars used to surround the city, but are now further afield. Feeling peckish, I selected a very
f French oak barrels salubrious establishment entitled Le Noailles where I espied an old favourite of mine, namely Oeufs Mimosa with the succulent taste of fresh tuna — heaven. Magret of Canard followed — another fine dish ! No visit to Bordeaux is complete without a trip (30 minutes by train) to the picturesque medieval town of St Émilion for a spot of obligatory wine tasting as you climb up the town. The next day I ventured to the Medoc region and the small area of St Julien, lunched with Anne Cuvelier whose family own the renowned Château Léoville Poyferré (bought half a bottle for the princely sum of 33 euros) and in the evening ventured back to central Bordeaux and saw an instrumental British group Punch Lime entertaining
f La Cigale Nantes passers-by who formed an appreciative crowd. The next day I mused on the free spirit of the French amidst recent disasters, the marvellous tramway system established as recently as 2000 with a flat rate fare of one euro 50 and the rather inordinately expensive taxi fares that can and should be avoided. Finding yet another hidden square swarming with revellers I found a 2012 Château Chasse-Spleen (between £2025 purchased at Berry Brothers or at source) and shelled out 59 euros at a café and, given the unusually low mark-up, indulged in the rich black fruit aromas, the soft ripe tannins, great balance and seductive chewy finish! Quel plaisir! Time to return to Blighty and the wonders of Southern Rail, the worst journey of all and quelle horreur !

OUSING – a major crisis is looming – if it isn’t already here. The last five years has seen a big shift to renting privately and the radical change in housing benefit some say have seriously reduced current living standards and future wealth, with implications for individuals and the state. Women have come into our drop-in describing unbelievable housing issues. The housing crisis is about people. It’s the family struggling to meet next month’s mortgage payment. The young family renting a rundown flat, wondering if they’ll ever be able to afford a home of their own. The children living in temporary accommodation, forced to change schools every time they move. The lack of affordable, decent homes is affecting families across the country. Here’s how: Home ownership is slipping out of reach. On average, house prices are now almost seven times people’s incomes. It’s becoming more difficult for young people to save up and buy a home. Housing costs are hugely expensive. Many of the people on the housing ladder did so by taking out risky mortgage loans that stretched them to their financial limit. Now that the economy is struggling, people are finding it harder to meet their monthly repayments, often with dire consequences.

LACE up your trainers and start limbering up as the Chestnut Tree House 10k run returns for a 13th year. The hospice, which supports 300 children and young people in Sussex and south east Hampshire with lifeshortening conditions, will be transforming Littlehampton’s seafront into a running track on September 11. A new route is being introduced for 2016, which will see participants take in the beach, boating lake and residential areas, and people of all abilities are being encouraged to sign up. A total of 1,200 people took part in last year’s event and raised a magnificent £45,000 – a figure organisers are hoping to surpass in 2016. The Arundel-based hospice, which through its community teams also cares for families in their own homes across the county, relies heavily on community support as it receives less than seven per cent central government funding towards its £3.5 million yearly running costs.
Nicky Ifould, the hospice's events fundraiser, said: “Our annual 10k race has become a popular fixture locally and further afield, attracting runners from as far away as London. Last year’s event was a huge success and we really want to build on this in 2016. “We have introduced a new fast, flat route this year, which is predominantly on the roads or promenades of Littlehampton and Rustington, making it an ideal course for both seasoned runners and beginners. "People are welcome to complete the course at their own pace, whether they run, jog or walk it as part of a team or as an individual. “All we ask is that participants raise as much as they possibly can for Chestnut Tree House. Every penny people donate or raise for us really does count." Registration costs £14 and the charity can set up a Just Giving page for participants. Potential volunteers are also welcome. More details about the run and helping from www.chestnut-tree-house. org.uk/10k

ore families are renting from private landlords. There are now more than nine million renters in private rented accommodation including almost 1.3million families with children. Renting can be incredibly unstable, with soaring rents, hidden fees and eviction a constant worry. And it can mean living in dreadful conditions too – one third of private rented homes in England fail to meet the Decent Homes Standard. Levels of homelessness are rising. The ultimate impact of the housing crisis is the huge numbers of people forced out of their homes altogether. Some of these householdswill then wait for years, sometimes in temporary accommodation. And more than 2,000 people a year will have no roof over their head at all, ending up sleeping rough. Urgent reform is needed.

ocally, we feel it definitely needs more joined up thinking because if nothing is going to change in the shortterm alternative ideas/solutions must be found otherwise we will resemble Victorian times with overcrowding, dreadful conditions, illness and children living in appalling conditions with long term impact. A good hard look is needed and not by central government but local people and local communities.
CARING staff at the RSPCA's Mount Noddy are looking for a retirement home for their golden oldie. Mary-Kate is seeking her last move. She is described as a lovely girl and is very chatty. She has a manageable health issue but considering her age, is very sprightly and loving. They say: "She has a lovely personality and thinks she is still a kitten, so would make a great family member, but we don't want her to spend her last few year in a cattery...can you help?"
Please call Mount Noddy on 01243 773359 or email info@ rspcamountnoddy.org.uk if you are willing to adopt her. Mount Noddy is run by the Sussex Chichester and District branch of the RSPCA. The Eartham centre had 21 cats listed on its website last Friday for re-homing. There were also five dogs. The centre is open from 11am-4pm daily except Wednesday. It provides care and assistance to abandoned, abused and unwanted cats and dogs.
MEMBERS of Bognor Regis Twinning Association are looking forward to next Tuesday when members of their two German twin towns arrive. The several dozen visitors from Weil am Rhein and Trebbin will be on their latest five day stay in the town. Among the excursions planned are outings to Winchester, Alresford, Wareham, Lulworth Cove and Swanage. Next Wednesday evening will see a finger buffet reception given by Bognor's town mayor, Cllr Pat Dillon, and town councillors to be held at Butlin's. Friday will see a railway trip arranged to take the guests to Emsworth with a boat journey arranged for a look around Chichester Harbour. This will be followed by a journey back to Chichester for a tour of the cathedral. Twinning association press officer James Clevett said: "That evening, a reception will be given by members of the association where a buffet will be laid on during an evening of entertainment. "While here, our German visitors will be staying as guests at the homes of twinning members who, on the Saturday, they will have a free day as well as on Sunday before their evening departure." Anyone in the Bognor Regis area can join the twinning association. Regarding the German twin towns, Weil-amRhein has been joined with Bognor Regis since 1987. It is located in the southwest corner of the countryside alongside the River Rhine. Over the river to the west is France while Switzerland is to the south. The twinning with Trebbin - which has long been twinned with Weil-am-Rhein - took place in 1995. Trebbin is to the east of Berlin and was in the Russian sector of Europe after the Second World War. Bognor Regis' twinning links date back to 1980 with the French town of St Maur des Fosses, which is situated on a bend of the river Marne close to Paris. Exchange visits are held with all three towns in alternate years. They see the members of each of them visit each other in turn.

All change for the use of the bus station site
Friday, August 12, 2016
By Sylvia Endacott
the laying of a foundation stone for the Jubilee School. This school was built to educate and employ 50 poor girls and remained until the 1880s. Due to the decline in the number of subscription children locally the school eventually closed, but not before town residents had protested about plans put forward by the Local Board of Health for its future use. It was suggested the building be demolished and replaced by a new Town Hall. However eventually, following much discussion it was decided to retain the building but convert it into a new Town Hall.

Location has been used for a school, a town hall and an indoor market THE demolition of any historic building in a town should cause consternation, but sometimes the cries continue for many years. One such in Bognor Regis is that of the ‘Art Deco’ Southdown bus station in the High Street. I never cease to be amazed at the passion that is used when describing this building. However, I had never really been fully aware of the history of the site and its development into the Morrisons car park we have today. Apparently, as far back as 1817 a ceremony took place on this site - in a seaside resort of less than 2,000 residents - to commemorate

` Mediterranean
From 1882, this sufficed until new plans were announced in the Twenties regarding a new site for a Town Hall in Clarence Road. Eventually, in 1927, the former school building was demolished, along with the properties on either side. Seven years later and the Southdown Bus Company built its ‘Art Deco’ bus station and the building became part of the fabric of the High Street to be retained for a lifetime, one would have thought. But rumours began circulating in 1977, and were reported in the local press, about a sale of the site. This was hotly denied by the bus company. It was also suggested Tesco wanted to develop the site. Those early fears were realised in 1980 when it was announced the bus station would close - it shut in June 1981 - and its 12 buses transferred to Chichester and Worthing. Bus bays were to be built in the High Street.
This did not placate the town’s people who seemed to regard the fact all “the elderly would have to stand in the rain, and not be able to sit in the warm,” to be of paramount importance. Numerous letters appeared in the local newspapers with ideas for the future development of the area. These included one resident who suggested a roller skating site for young people. They also suggested the waiting room could be used as a hire shop and a soft drinks counter could be established. Another suggestion was for a swimming pool. This continued for several years until 1993 when the site became home to some 40 stallholders for a daily indoor market. This proved to be a useful and well-attended facility both for residents and visitors. Demolition of the bus station took place after many years and the site became the current car park for the supermarket behind.

Martin will help put you in frame ALLOW our Trusted Traders section to this week put you in the picture when it comes to the best option for you if you are trying to track down a framer: Look no further than 1st Class Framers, which has no opened its doors for business in Bognor Regis. Experienced framer Martin Rosam, along with amiable wife Sarah, have now successfully opened their new premises in Aldwick Road, in the west of the town. Martin's new venture comes after he was previously in business with his shop, Fairfield Pictures, in Norfolk Street. And Martin is confident that new and old customers alike will take advantage of his new venture, the name of which he came up with because of his previous job working for the Post Office. He said: "We were open in the town but tucked away a bit. But now we are open in Aldwick Road and we are staying very busy as this is like a little hamlet in many respects. "It has a really vibrant feel to this area and there are plenty of different businesses and good football as well. "I've been a picture framer for 16 years now and I can honestly say I really love what I do." And there is another string to the Rosams' bow at the new shop, with Sarah concentrating her efforts in the section of the business which is dedicated to gifts. Sarah says that the wide variety of seaside gifts that
will be stocked for sale will mostly have a nautical theme. She added: "We live by the sea here in Bognor Regis and the shop isn't too far from the sand, sea and shingle so it seems quite fitting that we sell these type of gifts. "Items themed on beach huts are especially popular and it isn't lost on us that we have our very own parade of beach huts just a stone's throw away." So, get yourself down to see Martin and Sarah at 1st Class Framers, which is open 9am-5pm, Monday to Saturday, and check out their services and gifts. For more information call 01243 860026.

Lions starlets roar to victory in feisty tussle with Pirates by Charlie Welling sport@sussexpost.co.uk PAGHAM starlets and Nyetimber Pirates called time on their friendly a minute early after tempers flared following some tough-tackling. The Lions U21 side ran out convincing 5-2 winners at Nyetimber Lane. Despite defeat boss Ted Griffin (pictured) still saw the positives. He said: “We matched them for most of the game and caused them all sorts of problems going forward, we made a few mistakes which cost us and at the end of the day they are a very good side who should do well in that U21 league this season." The game also saw the return of Danny Towers who has re-signed for the club after a season with Wick. Jamie Walters' reserves made it two wins from three with a 5-4 win after a brave comeback against The Unicorn at the Arena on Saturday. Walters has worked hard over the summer to bring in a number of
new recruits and his side are now looking like they can mount a serious challenge for the WSFL Division 3 title this season. The Unicorn, who won promotion from Division 3 last season, looked strong from the start and nearly took the lead in the opening minutes but hit the post. The Pirates took the lead against the run of play when debutant Nathan Stonelake opened the scoring with
a simple tap in after a clever move down the right. The lead didn’t last long with the Unicorn hitting back twice in the space of 10 minutes. Stonelake managed to bring the Pirates level from a tight angle on 41 minutes but he missed the chance to claim his hat trick just before half time when he missed a penalty. The Looters made a number of changes at half time and The Unicorn took advantage scoring another two within minutes of the break. The Unicorn continued to create chances and looked lively throughout the second half but with 20 minutes to go Ronnie Lewry's spectacular 40 yard free kick bounced off the bar into the path of Lee Woodhouse who made it 4-3. It was 4-4 seconds later when Ben Bishop’s cross was met by Harvey Burchell at the back post who headed home for his first Pirates goal. Bishop won the game for the hosts late on completing the comeback with a long range effort into the top corner leaving the keeper with no chance.

Ward's in the zone at Harting It was hill of a race STEPHEN McLoughlin and Kate Stillwell braved the hill climb and were winners at the annual Goodwood five-mile road race. The event took place last Wednesday and raised £900 for Goodwood’s Charity of the year, Sussex-based children’s hospice Chestnut Tree House. Some 195 runners of all abilities tackled what is arguably Goodwood's most iconic landmark, the renowned hill climb made famous by the multitudes of legendary motor racing heroes sprinting the 1.87km incline which has an elevation of 95m. McLoughlin ran it in 29.18 minutes and Stillwell took 36:55 minutes.

PAGHAM could be without attacker Terrell Lewis for up to six months — a massive blow as they head into the Southern Combined Premier Division campaign. Wideman Lewis was crocked after only a few minutes as Mark Bennett’s Lions progressed past Littlehampton Town 3-1 at The Sportsfield in the Extra Preliminary Round of the Emirates FA Cup on Sunday. It is suspected that the winger, 28, who played League Two football for Chesterfield, has ruptured ligaments in his Achiles. A club spokesman said: "It looks as
if it will be a minimum of two months and could even be six in the worst case scenario. It is such a shame for the lad given that we are just one match into the season." It marred what was a good win for Pagham. Goals from Scott Murfin, Kieron Pamment and Rob Brown secured a safe passage to the next round satisfying manager Bennett, a former stalwart at the Golds. And the Nyetimber Lane club banked
£1,500 for their efforts in the competition and now face a trip to Canterbury City in the next preliminary round to be played on August 20. Now they face another testing game at Eastbourne United tomorrow (Saturday) as they get their league season underway. Bennett’s boys are back home at Nyetimber Lane on Tuesday when they host Worthing United in their second league outing of the new season. Meanwhile, Bosham open their
division two campaign with a trip to Lancing tomorrow and then are at Ferring on Tuesday. The Robins have been lifted by boss Andy Probee securing the signatures of forward pair, Marco Giambelardini and Ryan Hillier. Selsey started their campaign with an emphatic 6-2 win at home to Steyning Town in the first round of the Peter Bentley Cup last Saturday. They now face Horsham YMCA away in round two on Tuesday August 23. But first they start their Southern Combination Football League Division 1 tomorrow season against AFC Varndeanians. *Here is your chance to tell us all about your football club.

Blackwood captain fantastic GARY Blackwood (BRSA Wanderers) retained the summer captains’ title by beating Keith Robinson (Chi Snooker ‘C’). And Lee Franklin (POW 'Z') saw off Karl Wingate (Friary ‘D') for his hat-trick of summer league secretaries’ titles. It was the culmination of the captains and secretaries knockouts at the Newtown Social Club. The captains knockout saw some of the players, including a 180 from Stuart Rose (Newtown Dart Vaders). Rose also scored a second 180 in the first semifinal against Robinson (Chi Snooker 'C'), but his doubles deserted him. The second semi-final saw Lewis Campling (Newtown 'X') take on Blackwood. Campling missed out in the winter knockout by losing in the semifinals, and he didn't have enough this time to see off Blackwood who made his third final in four years. The final saw Robinson versus
Blackwood and the former started first after winning the bullseye, and promptly started with scores of 81 and two tons. Blackwood pulled his game back with 95 and 137. Robinson then hit his third ton of the leg but Blackwood countered with 90. Robinson came back with 48 left but the last dart just missed the double. Blackwood stepped up for 52, and with only two darts he took the first leg after 20 darts. The second leg saw Blackwood start with 93, 85 and 100. Robinson had a bounce-out on his second throw and was left him trailing. After another nine darts Blackwood was left with 60, and using his next three he hit the double, taking the leg in 21 darts. The secretaries' knockout saw top darts including a bullseye out-shot from Ian Hackett (Squash Club) on his way to the semi-finals. Hackett faced Lee Franklin (POW 'Z') in the first semi-final, the latter the victor. The second semi-
final was between Wingate (Friary 'D') and Andy Stubbs (Hunston Hares) with the former winning through to the final. The final saw Wingate go first and take the early lead with 100 and 96. Franklin followed with two tons and two 95s. Franklin took the first leg in 18 darts. The second leg saw Franklin in the lead despite a bounce-out. With 100 left Franklin slipped with a small score giving Wingate a shot at 161, but he could only score 103. Franklin hit treble 17 but his last two darts missed the double. Wingate stepped up and with two darts hit 58 for the second leg. The last leg saw Wingate take the lead despite a ton from Franklin. Franklin made the push with his only 180 of the night to take that lead back. Wingate left himself with a ton-plus finish, but Franklin had 72 left. The first dart hit treble 12, and the last dart hit the double 18, taking the leg, and the match.

LESLEY Ward ran an outstanding race for Tone Zone Runners and finished first in the over 60s category in a time of 1hr 47min at the Harting 10-mile run. This multi-terrain course is quite undulating with almost 1,000ft of elevation, therefore making it a challenging run. Laura Newell managed to beat her time from last year by 11 minutes showing how much she has improved in that time. She was followed over the line by Paul Coe, both finishing in 1:28.

Able also has got a draw with well rounded Chichester boxer George Bennet on a Fighters Promotions' white collar show in Portsmouth two years ago. "That's definitely it for me," said Harrison after his bow. "I made a promise to my family I wouldn't fight again, and that's a promise I will keep." He vows to stay in the gym though, which is good news for myself and other boxers who benefit from his sound advice "I'll definitely stay in the gym," he said. "Keeping fit is very much a way of life for me and I don't want to let myself go again as I did after the last time I fought." Hats off to Jimmy. Someone I have enormous respect for. A true fighter and a stand-up gentleman. Grassroots level amateur boxing clubs very much rely on grants and sponsorships to keep them equipped, and Ockley ABC tell me that they are proud and grateful to have a number of the community's businesses supporting them. Most boxing clubs can only pay rent with whatever subs they get from youngsters coming through the door to train. This leaves little to no funds for the likes of gloves, heavy bags, ropes or other equipment that is essential to the development of the young fighters. A club also relies heavily

Bats more like it! YOUNG pair Charlie Barnett and Alex Rowland put in a batting performance that was a perfect tonic for the woes of Aldwick this season. Chasing 168 for victory against Eastergate 2nd XI in West Sussex Invitation League Division 6, Aldwick 2s were in trouble at 7-2. But Barnett (74*) and Alex Rowland (65) took charge and piled on 159 runs for the third wicket in a match-winning
on local businesses to help with the costs of boxing shows, to ensure the young fighters have a platform to display the talent that they train so hard to develop. Top of Ockley's list of benefactors though, has to be Additions, the loft and extension firm, who have backed the club and all of its efforts for the past two years. The family-run and trustworthy general builders, with over 25 years experience, cover all aspects of architectural development from refurbishments to new builds. "Additions owner Barney and all the lads at the company have been absolutely brilliant," said Ockley head coach Faz Chitima. "They're always there at the local shows to support our boys and with all the sponsorship and equipment they've brought to the gym, it's just been amazing. I really can't thank them enough, as well as the boxers, trainers and all those who help, they are the lifeblood of local boxing." I saw Faz with coaches Teddy Gower, Ata Lubani and Ian Pepperell all decked out and looking sharp in their new team tracksuits sponsored by Additions, and mighty fine the looked, too. Have a great sporting week, and enjoy the Olympics, folks.

partnership. It was an impressive performance and when Rowland finally fell to Curtis Drake (2-24) it was just left to Ian Guppy (4*) to hit the winning runs. Earlier, Aldwick’s bowlers managed to keep the lid on things as far as the home side were concerned and subsequently restricted Eastergate to 167-8 from their 40 overs. Grant Wilson (2-23) got proceedings
off to a great start by removing opener John Etherington for a duck. The runs came from Aaron Bateman (37) and Matt Langmead (38) but in the end it was not enough as Aldwick toasted a victory and collected 28 points to go with their triumph. This week Aldwick 2 will be in a confident mood when they come up against Worthing 4 at the Felpham Oval.

He took three wickets for 59 runs off 10 overs with two maiden overs but it proved too little to avoid defeat.
PAGHAM U13 captain Elvis Millen had opponents from Chichester Priory Park all shook up when he smashed a whopping 144 not out to secure a magnificent victory. Millen mauled 'em in 33 overs, including striking 27 fours, from 120 balls delivered, to help Pagham to a 178-run win in Sussex Junior Cricket Festival Under 13 Division U Shield on Monday. Chichester won the toss and elected to field and Millen’s fantastic tally was added to by 43 runs from Theo Beynon-Ayres and a further 27 from Harry Lindsey. It gave Pagham 257
for 2 (33 overs) and Chichester could only muster 79 for 10 (18.3 overs) in reply. Millen's performance and huge haul prompted Pagham Colts club officials to congratulate him on Twiiter, where they posted this snap of the triumphant schoolboy. And he was at it again a day later though not in such big numbers when he hit 38 in a 25-run defeat by Bognor in the same competition. Bognor batted first and scored 183 for 9 (37 overs) with Charlie Jays hitting 32 to top score for the home side.

This avuncular chap travelled to his team's match at the weekend in the "dog bit" in the back of a SUV in a "morning after the night before" state. FAIR play to Bosham all-rounder Andy Probee who has overseen a summer transformation of the Robins’ Walton Lane pitch.

Get shirty in the box, Ollie BOGNOR boss Jamie Howell must put his shirt on Ollie Pearce scoring goals this season after the departure of Jason Prior. Attacker Pearce will lead the line for the Nye Camp outfit in the Ryman Premier League when they kick-off tomorrow (Saturday) at home to Lowestoft Town. And our mock-up image shows how we envisage the Rocks hitman might look in the new Bognor kit after the sponsors draw handed CSL the naming rights. CSL owner Martin Burford said he was delighted. He said: “They play an attractive brand of football and are good to watch. “I would urge any local business keen to be associated with such a fantastic club to get involved in terms of sponsoring matches and the like. I am proud to have CSL on the shirts.” Bognor have also unveiled their new third kit shirt, above.

We've got Grainger ..for now by Carl Eldridge sport@sussexpost.co.uk JAMIE Howell has secured the services of keeper Billy Grainger for the opening skirmishes of the new season. And he is set to play in the Rocks' Ryman Premier League clash against Lowestoft Town tomorrow (Saturday). But the Bognor boss knows he will lose out to Premier League Crystal Palace in the pursuit of former Chelsea U21 custodian Grainger if the Eagles decide to sign him. Keeper Grant Smith moved on in the summer along with a
host of key players but Howell is confident he has a decent squad. As well as Grainger, he can choose from Brighton U23 pair Jason Davis and Dylan Barnett both on shortterm loans at Nyewood Lane. He said: “Lowestoft won’t be easy. They've come down from Conference North and want to go back, but I'm confident. “Billy is with us for the first five or six games and we will know more after that. “It is a key position and we play from the back so important for us. Both Dylan and Jason are the type of players we like, hungry and enthusiastic and that is good."
