Welcome... ...to February when we have St Valentine’s Day, Shrove Tuesday and a half term school holiday at the end of the month. Our charity profile in this issue spotlights Winston’s Wish, a remarkable organisation helping children deal with bereavement. Andrew Staib discusses the benefits of ‘rewilding’ your garden; more wildlife and less tidying are two of the main attractions. This month we have an interesting historical book to give away - “Heroes of Coastal Command”. Part of the RAF’s maritime arm, established in 1936, Coastal Command undertook long patrols out over opens seas, often working alone and unsupported. The book tells of these ‘special kind of airman’. Sticking with history, this month historian David Johnson writes a fascinating account on ‘the curse of Cowdray’ and the fire and drownings linked to it. Our “Property Doc” joins the climate change debate and looks at alternative sources of energy for your home. If you are struggling to stick to your new year’s good intentions, ‘make it easy’ says nutritionist Heather Smith, with lots more practical advice in our health feature. Finally we have our regular news from local councils, schools and community groups plus our monthly recipe, walks and motoring feature. Enjoy February!

Easebourne PC Getting involved - making a difference Easebourne had some wonderful support from volunteers in 2019. Without residents’ involvement the Parish would not be what it is. There are plenty of opportunities to get involved and people can give as much time as they want. Every little helps. In 2020 we’re looking for volunteers to: - Help with Park projects - Litter pick - Work with the Midhurst Green Volunteers - Help with our Community Speedwatch activity We’re also on the look-out for people to join the Parish Council. For more information contact the Parish Clerk at parishclerk@easebourne.org or on 07342 166188. Green volunteers come to Easebourne We teamed up with the Midhurst Green Volunteers to work on the first of our community projects keeping greenery at bay. Volunteers did a great job of clearing nearly two tonnes of green waste from High Path. The work was completed on 25th January. We’re now looking for people to help out with future projects both in Easebourne and Midhurst.

Midhurst Town Council

Edited extracts taken from the minutes of the Finance Committee meeting held on 9th December 2019. Finance Budget 2020/21 Following a short discussion, it was confirmed that the maintenance work on the boiler in Cemetery Lodge had been completed. The £10,000 allocated for the remaining project work on Cemetery Lodge (as identified by the survey) can now be reduced to reflect this. After this adjustment it was resolved to approve the financial budget 2020/21 and recommend to Council for adoption. Carron Lane Improvement Working Group It was confirmed that £6,000 had been agreed for a feasibility study; some of the work involved would be undertaken by Boher Architecture in respect of illustrations and plans and Hooli Design to create a logo, survey and possibly further marketing work. Using Survey Monkey, the survey will run for six weeks, it will be available in paper format (in a special edition of Midhurst Matters) and via links from the council website and Facebook page. A special edition of Midhurst Matters will go out in February which will feature an article on the feasibility study taking place along with the survey. The questions for the survey would be arranged and agreed by the working group in conjunction with Hooli. The Finance committee agreed to Hooli’s quotation for the logo design of £110-165 and

St Ann’s Hill Being an historical interest and tourist attraction two proposals were put forward: 1) Midhurst Town Council to buy or lease the area from Chichester District Council. 2) Form a working party, incorporating interested parties along with Chichester District Council, to maintain it and see how best it can be used as a commercial benefit to the town. Grass Cutting West Sussex have now engaged a contractor for district grass cutting next financial year. Midhurst Town Council to discuss the possibility of engaging him to undertake the periods when WSCC will now not be grass cutting in Midhurst. Possible collaboration with Easebourne’s contractor should be progressed further as well. www.midhurst-tc.gov.uk

Petworth Town Council Edited extracts from the minutes of the Open Spaces Committee meeting held on 4th December 2019. Rosemary Gardens It was reported that a Councillor had expressed concern about the maintenance of Rosemary Gardens, advising that there has been over pruning. It was agreed that the contractor should be given a landscape management statement to follow in order to get the gardens back up to the required standard. Youth Shelter It was advised that the draft presentation to be given to young people will be available from January 2020 for the Open Spaces committee. It was advised the Clerk write to Lord Egremont to make him aware of the proposals for a youth shelter, outlining the consultation process and the rationale for the project. Sports Ground update It was reported that a letter from the National Trust has been received, advising that they aren’t willing to enter any conversations about a 25-year lease for at least 6 months. The Councillor advised that the Clerk has drafted a letter, requesting a meeting with representatives from the National Trust to agree a plan, however this has not yet been sent. It was suggested that as the leaseholders of the Sports Ground, the Town Council must take the lead in negotiations.

Visitors Information Point The Clerk advised that the Town Council can access grant funding of up to ÂŁ10,000 to cover 50% of the total cost of the Visitors Information Point and that in order to submit the application, details of all project costs are still required. Sport England skatepark grant Following receipt of a recent email, Sport England remain interested in assisting with the funding of a skatepark. It was agreed at the upcoming meeting with representatives from Leconfield Estate, the Council will request some Estate land to install the skatepark; either through a lease or purchase of the land. One Councillor raised the possibility of installing a skatepark at one of the allotment sites, given that there are a number of unused plots. The committee welcomed this suggestion, which they agreed to consider further dependent on the outcomes from the upcoming meeting with Leconfield Estate. Proposals to 55 Sheepdown The committee received a request for changes to allotment plot 55 at the Angel Street site. Following discussion, this was approved on the condition that dwarf stock is used and maintained to ensure the height of the trees does not exceed specifications. .www.petworth-tc.gov.uk

History

The curse of Cowdray By local historian & artist David Johnston shall die out. It shall follow as the heritage of the race that comes after him, and it shall continue even until the end”. By fire and water it perished indeed. A week after Cowdray House was burned, in 1793, the last Viscount Montague was drowned in the Rhine. The chief priest of the church of Laufenberg records in a letter the drowning of the Viscount Montague [and his friend Charles Sedley Burnett] – “and there, in the so -called strait, they disappeared in a vortex or eddy, and were never seen again; nor were their bodies recovered.” The account goes on to say that “the banks were crowded with spectators, but nobody could save the Englishmen, who swam together, endeavouring, as it appeared, to lay hold of the boat that was overset and floating along the current, but they could not reach it. They sank exhausted in the whirlpool into the depths, and the dog with them.”

The story of Cowdray

Magic, as a practise for healing is as old as the world, though in medieval days it was associated more with the black arts, and witchcraft, than secret charms for the healing of bodies. So it may be said, that if there is anything in the dark powers of the occult, and witchery, then we need look no further then the belated curse of Cowdray! For how the prophecy came wonderfully to fulfilment. There are two accounts of the manner in which the 'curse' was pronounced on Cowdray. One dates from the gift of Battle Abbey by Henry VIII. to Sir Anthony Brown, the father of Queen Elizabeth's host and friend. Sir Anthony Brown seized his new property, and turned the monks out of the gates, in 1538. Legend says that as the last monk departed, he cursed the despoiler to his face. He foretold the doom that would befall his posterity, and prophesied that the curse would cleave to his family until it should cease to exist. The second is that the King's Commissioners called upon the Sub-Prioress of Easebourne Priory to countersign the act of surrender – she warned them that the founders of the Priory had left a terrible malice on all who in time should molest or harry its occupants, and on all who in after time should aid or profit by a deed of sacrilege. “As the traditions of our house”, she said, “a curse of fire and water on all the male children and heirs of spoilers for the rest of their lives. That curse ye are about to incur. He who takes lands it shall come upon him, and his name

Viscount Montague's only sister (the wife of Stephen Poyntz) who inherited, was the mother of two sons – both were drowned in 1815, while bathing at Bognor. The drowning of the two sons at Bognor, re-kindled the old traditions and beliefs about the “fire and water”, to such an extent that it is affirmed that the later Viscounts Montague and their families were extremely jealous of the facts relating to the curse and its fulfilment becoming known. However, a Catholic magazine called “The Lamp”, published in 1878-9, adds a connected story of the curse founded on a narrative handed down from a steward of Cowdray House. “The fifth Viscount was a man of violent temper. On reaching Mass one day and finding it half done, he drew his pistol and shot the chaplain. The outcry all over the country was loud and vengeful, and my lord lay concealed for fifteen years in a hiding hole contrived in the masonry of Cowdray for the shelter of persecuted priests. The peer emerged only at night when he roamed the close walks, repentant and sad. Lady Montague would then steal out to him, dressing all in white to such good purpose that the desired rumours of a ghost soon flew about the neighbourhood”.

The full and actual curse of Cowdray, is given by Sir Henry Spelman in his 'History of Sacrilege': the complete curse makes disturbing reading: suffice to include the last sentence – “May all these curses come upon them, following in their track till they overtake and seize them and they perish utterly. Fiat” (let it be done).

Easebourne Primary School School Debate Recently, we held our first debate of the year. The motion was that this house believes that parents and carers should not allow children to be exposed to books, games or films that have age-ratings older than the children’s ages. Arguing for the motion were Megan, Jem and Nate. Arguing against were Margot, Sian and Grace. Once an initial vote had been taken, a range of interesting points was made by the speakers. Megan produced strong research evidence which linked emotional distress in young children to exposure to violent media whilst Margot countered by saying that parents and carers knew their children best. Nate explained how Pan European Game Information (PEGI) and the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) arrived at their ratings and he pointed out that the BBFC were very experienced at this task, having been in existence for over a hundred years! Grace made the case for a sensible parental approach, suggesting that par-

ents should read the blurb or reviews, or even sample the film or game first before making up their mind about its suitability. Jem educated the audience, explaining how the game Fortnite (12) worked and urging parents to think twice before letting their children play it. Finally, Sian reminded us that ratings change over time and pointed out today’s children would be surprised by how tame the films were that their parents had watched themselves as children. There were then questions from the floor which the

children answered as teams before the two captains, Megan and Margot, summed up. In the second vote, there was a gain of three votes for Megan’s team and the motion was carried. All six speakers did well and, between them, they helped the audience understand just how complicated this issue is.

Schools

Petworth C of E Primary School funds Over the last couple of years school budgets have been discussed many times by the media. There is no doubt that schools are having to be more creative with their budgets, redundancies or not replacing people who have left have occurred and schools are doing amazing things in order to ensure the standard of the children’s education is better year after year. As the new year starts every school in the country will be ensuring that their budget is used to its maximum. At Petworth we have a superb Petworth Primary School Association (PPSA), which offers many different opportunities to our children, adults and families throughout the year. All of these help raise funds for our school, which are used for school trips, IT equipment, books, school minibus etc. However it is more than just raising money as they offer vital learning opportunities for our children. This can be seen when our year six children create and run their own stalls at our fairs, children help to organise film nights, count the money, create the programmes and much more. These skills give the children real life experiences which they can build upon in the future. As with every parent-teacher association (PTA), our PPSA are always looking for different ways the community can help raise money for our school where every

Midhurst Rother College Although rivalry isn’t by any means a major part of Sixth Form life, every two weeks the inter-form competitions most definitely bring out the competitive streak in all of us. The task of organising this activity is given to each tutor group in rotation, meaning that the actualities of the competition vary vastly each time. We have had the ‘Cracker Challenge’, requiring the participants to eat as many crackers as they can in the space of a minute; the longest paper chain challenge, an excellent way to decorate the Sixth Form common room; and my personal favourite: the Play-Doh challenge, in which we had a list of objects to create masterpieces of in a short amount of time. Not only are these competitions a pleasant relief from the stresses of A levels, but create a wonderful sense of team spirit within the Sixth Form. Seeing everybody working together, albeit against another team, brings the sense of community that we know well here from our younger years. So, although we no longer partake in sports days and music competitions alike, we still have that team-spirit very much alive in our school careers which is so important for us to work in harmony towards our end-goal of fantastic exam results in the Summer.

penny goes towards offering our children different experiences. By using “easy fundraising” you can raise free donations for Petworth CofE Primary School every time you shop online! 4,000 shops and sites will donate, so you can support us when you're doing your everyday shopping, holidays, your seasonal shopping, or buying anything else at no extra cost to yourself. Therefore please use www.easyfundraising.org.uk/ causes/petworthprimary and every penny raised will go towards an experience for our children. If you shop online please go via this website and I would love it if you chose Petworth CofE primary School, but you could chose any charity which would be grateful for any support. Every time you shop online it may only be pennies but these do add up and remember it does not cost you anything. Our PPSA is just one way volunteers help in our school. We have members of the community read with our children, we have members of staff running free clubs before and after school (12 last term), however the biggest challenge for schools at the moment is their budget. Above is just one way you could help your local school. Thank you! John Galvin, www.petworth.w-sussex.sch.uk

Small steps to reach your goal By Heather Smith

When making what could be a pretty significant lifestyle change, one of the many reasons people fall off the wagon is confidence. Making a big change can feel like a huge opportunity to fail. Instead, try making changes which are so easy, it’s almost impossible not to make them. What could you do this week to take you a step closer to your overall goal? And how confident are you that you can do those things? If you’re not completely convinced, take it back a bit until it feels ridiculously easy to achieve. Set yourself up to succeed. Let’s say you’re a bad vegetable eater, and you’re aiming to improve your health. Of course, eating 8 portions of veg every day is going to get you closer to your goal. But that feels like a really big commitment which you’re not sure you could make long term. How about including one vegetable with each of your meals this week? If that is a step

forward from where you are now, but seems so easy you couldn’t fail, then you have your starting point. If it still feels like too much, don’t be afraid to step it back even further. You’re aiming for guaranteed success, which will leave you feeling good about yourself. Now you have had a positive experience in moving towards your goal, it becomes easier to take another step. Next week, you might feel like it is so easy to get one vegetable with each meal, that you feel totally confident you could actually increase to two vegetables with dinner every night. Other times, it might take longer to get really comfortable with the change before you’re ready to move on. Often, the slow route is the route which leads to the longest lasting changes. Aim for repeated positive interactions with your goal. Be kind to yourself. Take things slowly and celebrate each victory, however small, along the way.

Sussex Snippets The Good Neighbours scheme is run for West Sussex County Council (WSCC) by the Royal Voluntary Service (RVS). It connects people who may be feeling isolated with volunteers who offer their help during 12 arranged home visits. The RVS is appealing for new volunteers to donate their time to help clients of the Good Neighbours scheme across West Sussex, particularly in the Crawley and Worthing areas where there are currently several people on a waiting list to receive assistance. 01903 257019 or email gnwscoastal@royalvoluntaryservice.org.uk Community and environmental aviation group, CAGNE, is urging supporters to write to the Secretary of State for Transport and demand that the growth proposed by Gatwick Airport from the main runway is a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) under the Planning Act 2008 examination as it “will add approximately 55,000 extra flights a year 340,000 aircraft movements by 2033 with 61m passengers added to the current infrastructure.” A suggested letter can be found at www.cagne.org. The LoCASE programme is a unique opportunity for small to medium size businesses in East Sussex to improve their energy efficiency and overall performance. With free energy audits and grant funding of up to £10,000, businesses can cut overheads, gain a competitive edge, and enhance their brands. This will be achieved with support from Carbon Smart – selected by East Sussex County Council to deliver the LoCASE project. Eligibility rules apply. 01323 790030. A crowdfunding programme launched in May 2018 has seen more than 100 community-led projects in West Sussex hit their target and the window is now open until Thursday 13 February for community groups to put forward new initiatives and projects they would like to receive funding for. The West Sussex Crowd, run in partnership by West Sussex County Council and civic crowdfunding website Spacehive, invites communities to come together and propose ideas to regenerate their local areas. Since its launch, more than 2,800 local people, businesses, district/ borough and town/parish councils have backed projects across the county, collectively raising over £750,000 and showing the strength of community buy-in for their ideas. www.westsussexcrowd.org.uk. Following Eastbourne Borough Council’s declaration of a climate emergency for the town, a new organisation, Eastbourne Carbon Neutral 2030 (ECN2030), has been set up to tackle the challenge of achieving zero carbon emissions within a decade. Meanwhile Hastings Borough Council has confirmed it is now looking at two possible sites to install solar panels, both in Hastings Country Park. Hastings has also pledged to be carbon neutral by 2030.

A December meeting of the WSCC Performance and Finance Scrutiny Committee expressed concern over the programme and the predicted savings of the Whole Council Design project launched in 2019. In response to a report on the project by Katharine Eberhart, Director of Finance and Support Services, members noted: The use of a new consultant was queried as work had already been done and there was a risk that a £19m investment might only achieve £17m of savings • Non delivery of savings would not invalidate work done by the previous consultants as many savings were to be made in areas of Children’s Services, such as using ipads to update cases on the road, which had subsequently needed increased spending in administrative support • Savings from the programme were at significant risk as the projects hadn’t reached delivery stage, but advances in IT meant the position to make progress had improved and there was confidence that the programme would achieve savings • The projected overspend of £1.5m was reported in the Total Performance Monitor and would be mitigated or balanced from reserves A further report on the programme with details of costs and savings would come to the Committee in January. •

Canine Partners thanks donors Heyshott based charity, Canine Partners, is coming together with almost 600 charities to thank supporters who donated through the UK’s biggest match funding campaign, The Big Give’s Christmas Challenge 2019. Through this year’s Christmas Challenge, Canine Partners raised £92,500 to fund amazing assistance dogs in just seven days. Canine Partners trains amazing assistance dogs to transform the lives of people with disabilities, boosting their confidence and independence. The dogs are taught a range of everyday tasks including picking up and fetching items, opening doors and helping to undress a person. They can even help to load and unload a washing machine and they can fetch help in an emergency. www.caninepartners.org.uk Charity/community notices to: info@sussexlocal.net

Businesses help with careers An inspirational programme to help local young people fulfil their potential, and improve their employment opportunities was launched recently with over 100 school students from schools in the Chichester area. The Be the Change programme has been developed by LoveLocalJobs Foundation and Graham Moore of humanutopia to help 13 and 14 year-olds negotiate the gap between education and employment. Following the successful first year launch in Chichester District for the 2018/19 academic year, Be the Change has returned with previous sponsors The Body Shop (primary funder for 2019/20), Chichester District Council, Petworth Vision and Vitacress, alongside new headline sponsor, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. At the emotional and life changing launch, the students and business volunteers took part in activities that focus on happiness, confidence, hope, relationships and employability. The activities were created and expertly led by Graham Moore, a former teacher who understands the challenges young people face. The schools involved in the programme are: Bourne Community College, Midhurst Rother College, The Academy Selsey, Bishop Luffa, The Weald, Ormiston Six Villages and Chichester Free School. Working in partnership with businesses, Be the Change helps open young people’s eyes to the world of work and the wealth of possibilities and career opportunities in their hometown and beyond.

Heroes of Coastal Command The RAF's maritime war 1939 - 1945 The RAF's Maritime War 1939 - 1945 makes the reader think again about the RAF’s maritime arm, Coastal Command, which was established in 1936. Often working alone and unsupported, undertaking long patrols out over opens seas, Coastal Command bred a special kind of airman. Including individuals such as Lieutenant Commander Roger Morewood MID, who was born in Worthing. Author Andrew Bird, “I knew some of these men for a brief period in the 1990’s when I began talking to British, Canadian, Australian and American veterans of Coastal Command’s war. Years later, as I began to write, it occurred to me, that I should from the start, set down my aim and the parameters I have given myself. Above all, this is meant to be a compelling narrative history of a few participants of the most neglected Royal Air Force command in the historiography of the Second World War – Coastal Command. It is one that can be easily read and digested, and

hopefully enjoyed, yet which brings together my own research on the subjects. The aim is not to just write their military history, but also the social and political and economic history too. Their individual stories will be illustrative of the experience of war and the conduits to explaining the bigger picture of Coastal Command’s operational sphere” Heroes of Coastal Command is available to buy for £25.00.

In Your Garden Monthly gardening ideas and tasks by Andrew Staib, Principal Designer of Glorious Gardens Rewilding your garden - 8 easy steps Firstly, what is rewilding? Rewilding is returning outdoor spaces to a natural state where nature can evolve without the intense involvement of humans. It allows original ecosystems to reassert themselves, thereby supporting damaged natural systems to heal and threatened species to recover their populations. The scale of rewilding is normally whole valleys being returned to forest or boglands being left to replenish after years of vegetative extraction. But we can rewild our little bit of the earth that we have inherited! Here are 8 ways to go about it: 1) Not so tidy Think differently about needing a tidy garden. Nature can start to shape your garden, or parts of your garden, and the need we have for straight lines and clean lawns and beds can relax a little. Leaving piles of leaves, mounds of fallen apples and crab apples and old logs to house insects can make your garden into both a factory and a hotel for life. You can leave a whole area of your garden over to nature. You may start to see tidiness as barrenness after a while, a garden stripped of natural abundance. Your neighbours, once you show them the increased amount of wildlife that your approach has yielded, may start asking you for advice. 2) Food for nature You can plant trees and shrubs that are rich in berries all year round to feed the myriad of garden visitors. From bats to bees and birds to frogs, your planting decisions will foster a smorgasbord.

Buddleia and Lythrum salicaria for bees, Sweet Chestnuts and acorns for small mammals, plus for the birds plants such as Cotoneaster, Black Cherry, Hawthorn, Ivy and Holly will keep a good supply of nutrition going all year. For butterflies and moths, try nettles and Lilac, Lavender, Foxgloves, Angelica and Honeysuckle. 3) Homes for nature As well as leaving piles of leaves about, and decaying logs, you can create your own insect hotels and bird feeders. (If you put your bird feeder near your rose garden you can keep the aphid population down rather than using insecticides). Having some evergreen shrubs can provide valuable protection as well as cool shade in summer.


through the door You can chat with your neighbours and make sure that wildlife can move through one garden to the next. Indeed, the next time a fence needs replacing you can both think of replacing it with a mixed hedge rich in food. 4) Water Any pond, no matter how small, will give life to insects and slug eating frogs, as well as providing drinking water and a bath for birds to clean their wings. It is like creating a fertile soup as the whole of the food chain depends on it. 5) Mix and match planting

A variety of plant life will allow a variety of wildlife e.g. certain birds prefer only certain berries. Perennials that die down in the winter provide a food source and

a place for bugs to hide, flowers produce different types of nectar and a pond will allow the growth of water plants that certain insects need. You can allow certain weeds like clover, nettles and teasels a place to thrive whilst not taking over. 6) Don’t bother hoeing If you keep your veg beds well weeded there is no need to disturb the delicate ecosystem of the soil by yearly hoeing. This no-dig method involves putting a thick mulch on top of the pre-existing soil each year. You do, however, have to have a really good and plentiful supply of compost to do this. Worms and other microfungi will be happier left undisturbed (did you know that there are over one million different types of worms?!). 7) Lawn care You can give a bit or all of your lawn over to wild meadow grasses. Even leaving the lawn to grow long and plug-planting some wildflower perennials will create a healthy habitat for wildlife. Paths can be converted to bark chip paths, which eventually break down and can be spread on the beds each year or two when it is time to replenish them with new bark. 8) Become a nature detective It is amazing how once you learn the name of something, you enter into a relationship with it. The hundred common garden insects, once you know their proper name, won’t just be lumped under the pesty insect

category but will become the doorway to being able to find out more about them. Do you know what a pear midge is? Or a flea Flea Beetle beetle? Or a green Capsid Bug? Or how familiar are you with the sex life of snails? You can keep a little book of sightings in your garden - much more interesting and varied than bird-watching! Rewilding your garden can be done a little here and there. It is not maintenance free but it is a relaxed attitude to nature where fertility and abundance can make up for the moss free patio that we worry so much about!

What to do this February February is a great time to explore woodland. The bare bones of the earth are at rest and the quality of the forest is still and waiting for Spring with some small delights emerging. Also the evergreens like Ivy, Yew and Holly come into their own. Try visiting Angmering Park Estate Trust, Burton and Chingford Pond, Petworth House Woods, Slindon and The Warrens.

February tasks • Do a last tidy up and cut old perennials and ornamental grasses to ground level (as long as they are not the evergreen ornamental grasses!) • Now is the time to finish pruning your Roses and Wisterias. • Cut back Hardy shrubs like Cornus, Salix and Cotinus as well as Buddleia. • Anything that has flowered during the winter can be pruned back into shape now like Winter Jasmine and Mahonia. • Lift out and separate your Snowdrops after they have flowered. You can then replant them in different areas of the garden. • If you have a greenhouse you can start sowing leeks and onions.

Alternative energy sources By Chris Ennis FRICS These days there can be few more important issues than climate change which, in a few short years, will challenge the lives of our children and grandchildren. We must act now to curb greenhouse gas emissions, and reduce reliance on fossil-based fuels. This is a massive issue that has dominated, and will continue to dominate the press for many years to come. There are many measures that will save energy and these will come to the fore in years to come. Insulation is probably a good point at which to start… There are still many homes where roof spaces and water storage tanks are inadequately insulated. Many properties have replacement window systems, but older installations do not possess the good thermal qualities of more modern installations. Gas/oil fired water boilers replaced / installed after 2005 are likely to be modern ‘condensing’ systems. A condensing water boiler extracts heat from the waste products of combustion. A condensing boiler is typically 90% efficient and research shows that some boilers can have a remarkable 98% efficiency. The boilers can be identified either by the white gaseous emissions through the external flue or by the condensate pipe which should discharge into a nearby drain.

Alternative sources ‘green’ of power also include wind power as can be seen in the Rampion wind farm a few miles off Worthing. The wind farm is now fully operational and includes 116 turbines with a rotor diameter of 110 metres and an overall height of 135 metres. There are (smaller!) domestic wind turbine systems available and frequently these are located on masts since wind speeds increase with height. There are a number of types of heat pump which extract energy from the ground (known as ‘ground source’) or from the air (‘air source’). They work rather like a refrigerator in reverse….a fridge takes warm material and makes it cold, but a heat pump takes cold water and makes it warm for domestic heating needs. The dedicated green householder might also consider solar powered energy with commonly seen photovoltaic panels generating electricity, or with a solar powered hot water system which might provide up to 50% of typical domestic requirements.

Charity Profile

Winston’s Wish Sussex based charity helping grieving children By Georgia Brown Bereavement is an inevitable reality for many, yet our intrinsic human nature hopes the death of a loved one is not something that occurs in life until we are much older. Unfortunately, losing a family member at a young age is a tragic reality that thousands of young people are faced with every day. The effects of grief are highly impactful on children’s lives, often manifesting in unique ways for each individual depending on the circumstances of the death, the child’s relationship with the person who has died and how accessible their support network (if any) is. For example, a child who witnesses the deterioration of a parent’s health may have a different experience of grief to a child who loses a sibling unexpectedly.

Support during bereavement Ensuring a child has access to support during a bereavement is necessary for their mental and physical health. However, often schools and families are not well equipped to deal with the effects of grief, negatively impacting a child’s life during their grieving process. This is where Winston’s Wish comes in, providing a wide range of practical support and emotional guidance for the children and families that need it most. Winston’s Wish is a national child bereavement charity with a base in Sussex. Their Sussex team are professionally trained to offer face to face support for bereaved children. There is no right or wrong way to grieve, and the charity team recognise the many faces and stages of grief, tackling the physical and emotional challenges that accompany bereavement in a comforting and supportive nature. The charity’s mission is to ensure that every young person has access to the support they need to help understand, cope with and survive the bereavement of a loved one. Award-winning service First started in 1992, Winston’s Wish was set up by Julie Stokes OBE, who began her career with the NHS in 1984 and was instrumental in establishing one of the first hospital-based teams focusing on palliative care. Her desire to involve children before and after a parent’s death and to support parents led her to apply to the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust. In 1992, she was awarded a Fellowship and travelled to America and Canada to better understand the services provided in these countries for bereaved children. Inspired by what she had experienced, Julie founded Winston’s

Wish in September of that year. After just 3 years the grief support programme was well established and Julie won the BT/Childline award ‘for providing outstanding services to children’. Recognising expressions of grief Sarah Egerton from Winston’s Wish explains how it is important to recognise that grief is a natural reaction to the death of a close person, and not all children need direct support. She says, “Sometimes children, young people and adults don’t react how we expect them to - for instance, they may not be overly sad or upset. There can be many reasons for this, including the shock and numbness that follows a death. If a child isn’t overtly expressing grief that’s okay, and it’s important not to rush them as this can be intrusive, and is counteractive to the natural psychological processes taking place. Part of our work at Winston’s Wish is helping families understand how they are managing, and reassuring parents and carers that there is no set way to grieve, it’s all normal.” Sarah goes on to explain how the charity aims to help parents and carers to recognise the ways that their child is expressing their grief. She continues, “The age of a child dictates what they understand about the finality of death, and how they express feelings. Generally, children under the age of five experience the death of a close person as a separation. All parents will have experiences of their child having separation anxiety when they are not with them, and the distress this can cause. If a child is impacted by grief, then they will show this through their behaviours. Signs that a child is unsettled include disruption to sleep routines, changes in appetite, psychosomatic (body based) symptoms that include eczema and stress rashes, stomach aches, and headaches, a child may be more irritable and less easy to soothe when distressed, or they may have more frequent tantrums. They may also regress to an earlier stage of development, for instance they may want to be treated like a baby or want a dummy or bottle, when they may have stopped using these some time ago.”

Supporting the whole family Sarah explained how whilst this list may seem scary or extreme, they are all normal signs that a child is struggling. In this instance, Winston’s Wish focus on supporting a child by also supporting their parent or carer; making sure a parent feels reassured and confident that the child is okay, and also exploring ways they themselves can offer reassurance and soothing. Sarah continued, “We also encourage families to talk about the person who has died and begin to help children make sense of what’s happened in age appropriate ways. For instance, it’s important families use the words ‘dead’ and ‘died’ when speaking about the loss as this avoids confusion. There are also times where we work directly with families and individual children using play, and therapeutic approaches, to help children manage their feelings.” Even in the case where children have a strong support unit within the home, research conducted by the University of Cambridge suggests that schools around the country are ill equipped to offer bereaved children the support they need. Researchers have consistently found that childhood bereavement is associated with an increase in psychological distress and the majority


through the door of bereaved children and young people exhibit acute grief reactions, such as fear, helplessness, anxiety, anger, regression in developmental milestones, lower self-esteem, insomnia, intrusive thoughts, apathy and psychosomatic symptoms. These indicators of distress are to be expected as the death of a parent or sibling is extremely distressing. Often these reactions can be incredibly frightening and confusing for a young person and inevitably this is an even more overwhelming experience for a child who is still at school. Volunteers at Winston’s Wish are specially trained to deal with such symptoms, easing the pressure off families and schools that may not know how to support a bereaved child. Helping over 17,000 children and young people Fundraising is vital to the sustainability and longevity of Winston’s Wish. Each year they strive to help as many children, young people and families as possible in the UK, but require around £2.5million a year in order to do this. Sarah said, “The wonderful generosity

of our supporters is the only way we can continue to provide a variety of quality services and look to grow them. We helped over 17,000 children and young people last year. This is, however, no tall order - and with a 100 children newly bereaved of a parent every day in the UK, there is always more we can be doing. The ultimate goal is that no child goes without bereavement support, but we need financial stability and long term support to achieve this.” People can support Winston’s Wish in a variety of ways including individual donations, community fundraising events, challenges, trusts and grants, in memoriam donations and corporate partnerships.
