Welcome... It’s holiday time again, towards the end of this month the schools break up for the summer. If you’re looking for things to do over the summer break then there are plenty of events listed in our What’s On guide starting on page 4 - and more listed on our website at www.sussexlocal.net. Whether you are at home or away this month do find time to enter our competition to win tickets to the Loxwood Joust - see page 16. This unique family event takes place over two weekends in August and sees armoured knights on horseback jousting along with other terrific Mediaeval attractions. We have a family ticket up for grabs which include VIP seats in the Royal Pavilion for the best views of the jousts. You can also win tickets to the Garden Show at Loseley Park, a great day out for all the family - see page 38. Our main article this month is a feature on West Sussex charity Whizz Kids. Providing equipment and support, this worthy charity is radically improving lives of local disabled youngsters. See page 28. Designing with Perennials is this month’s gardening topic on page 35 along with the main monthly tasks and our July recipe page 26 is perfect for the barbecue (let’s hope the weather co-operates!). Thanks for reading,

Sussex Snippets The Priory Park Festival takes place in Chichester on 8th, 9th and 10th July and promises an eclectic weekend, blending of the best elements of a village fete with a food fair, literary weekend and a great and diverse range of music. Many of the musicians come from Sussex with artists from Chichester and Brighton in particular topping the bill – providing a local feel with a widespread appeal.

WSCC says that to foster a child, people need – a spare room, a sense of humour, commitment, time, advocacy skills and some experience with children or teenagers. For information on fostering: www.westsussex.gov.uk/ campaigns/time-to-foster-time-to-care/ Efforts have been stepped up to protect the iconic Adur Ferry Bridge in Shoreham-By-Sea from vandalism – vandals have damaged nineteen glass panels since the bridge opened, and in two separate
SUSSEX LOCAL incidents in the past two weeks, red and blue paint and graffiti was daubed over glass panels, the deck and central posts. The bridge already has CCTV cameras capable of recording evidence trained upon it and now further actions are being considered to tackle anti-social behaviour there.

Dear Editor Good afternoon, I would like to give our local postman a mention in Sussex Local. I have been living in West Chiltington for two years next month and remember well his greeting shortly after we moved in, "Good morning, my name is Brian ..." He was the very first person to greet me and has been doing so ever since. He is always pleasant and helpful and when out on the road Brian never misses to give a friendly wave. I understand he may retire this August and believe he will be greatly missed in this community. I think that acknowledgement of his service would be well deserved, so I would be most grateful if this letter could be included in your next issue. Mrs Rosemary Maguire, by email.
Losing pounds to raise pounds Members of the Ashington, Storrington and Pulborough Slimming World groups have collected 150 bags worth of clothes to raise money for Cancer Research UK. Claire and Sharon, who run the groups encouraged members, their friends and families to spring-clean their wardrobes and collect the clothes, shoes and accessories they’ve successfully slimmed out of to generate valuable stock for the the Horsham Cancer Research UK shop.

Whizz-Kidz Helping disabled youngsters find confidence and independence For 26 years national charity, Whizz-Kidz has been transforming the lives of disabled children in the UK by providing the vital equipment, support and life skills they need to reach their full potential, and offers a range of services in West Sussex. Back in 1989, Whizz-Kidz founder, Mike Dickson, was in his bike shop when he saw a girl in a wheelchair looking up at a bike light on a higher shelf. When Mike asked if he could help, the girl politely replied, ‘No thanks, I can reach it myself,’ pushed a button her powered wheelchair and rose up to take the light off the shelf herself. It was at that moment that Mike realized the difference that the right wheelchair could make to a child’s life. That small action of picking something off a high shelf meant something a lot bigger – it meant independence. Mike ran the London Marathon that year and, remembering the moment in the bike shop, pledged to raise the money to buy a powered wheelchair for a child who needed it – he raised £9,000 for a girl with cerebral palsy and the following year he founded Whizz-Kidz.
The charity provides a range of mobility equipment for children and young people with physical disabilities – including manual and powered wheelchairs, buggies and trikes, and in some cases they may also be able to offer sports wheelchairs – allowing them to be independent in all areas of their lives. The charity works with young people from roughly two to twenty five years of age, supporting young people at different stages throughout their journey into adulthood. However, Whizz-Kidz mission statement is for all disabled children’s lives to be full of fun, friendship and freedom, and for them the wheelchair is just the start of achieving this aim. The charity also runs clubs and camps, provides wheelchair skills training and work placements to help young people develop confidence and independence, and offers services to help disabled young people, their parents or carers Whizz-Kidz services in West Sussex centre upon the charity’s Ambassador Youth Club in Worthing. Ambassador Clubs give young disabled people a place to meet, make friends and have fun, and they provide a range of activities including, music, dance, art, sports, beauty therapy, cooking and trips out. They also run campaigns to help improve the lives of young disabled people by raising awareness of disability issues and campaigning for better facilities. Other services that run throughout the county include Wheelchair Skills Courses, Work Placements that are tailored to each young person’s needs and also Residential Camps that come to the South East once a year, providing young people with a two night stay independent of their parent or carer – Camp Whizz-Kidz is designed for wheelchair users aged from twelve to twenty five. The Wheelchair Skills Courses work in partnership with local primary, secondary and special schools teaching users how to get the most from their wheelchairs. There are three levels of training provided – beginners, intermediate and advanced – and children can learn how to tackle kerbs, perfect their reversing skills or learn how to safely carry items in their chair. Training events support wheelchair users aged from two to twenty five and are delivered by experienced trainers, many of whom use wheelchairs themselves.

30 Local Charity Profile For an older age group, Work Placements allow disabled young people, aged from fourteen to twenty five years old, to gain invaluable experience of the workplace, learn more about a career, acquire useful contacts and improve their employability. The service offers a range of opportunities and works in one of two ways – either a company will offer a placement and the charity finds a candidate to fill it, or else a candidate will contact them and ask for a specific placement which the charity then do their best to find. The charity also organises Work Skills Days, offering youngsters a valuable chance to meet employers and friends and to learn about and consider future career paths in a social environment. During the day participants undertake interactive workshops, working as a team and individually, and learning about CV building, career planning and disability rights, resulting in a boost of confidence, experience in the work place and the opportunity to work with Whizz-Kidz in the future with a Work Placement. In addition to the charity’s core programme of services, young people can also sign up to the Young Leaderz programme that develops vital leadership, decision-making and teamwork skills, encouraging the development of new mind-sets and attributes by completing modules such as ‘Becoming a Role Model’.

Whizz-Kidz is always looking to grow the services it provides and so reach more young people and families that need the charity’s support. The Ambassador Club, along with all of the Young People’s Services offered, welcomes new young people. So, how do families take up the services offered by Whizz-Kidz? Whizz-Kidz works in collaboration with the NHS and with respect to the provision of mobility equipment, the charity’s guidelines state that: “The NHS should always be a family’s first port of call for mobility equipment. However, if your local NHS Wheelchair Service does not provide equipment to meet the essential mobility needs of your child then we may able to help.” It may be that children are un-

32 Local Charity Profile able to obtain appropriate equipment to fit all of their needs, as different NHS areas apply eligibility criteria in varying ways so families may find geography plays a part in their experiences. There may also be a longer NHS waiting list for particular types of equipment. Whizz-Kidz receives all its referrals for wheelchairs from the NHS, but they state that their “approach is more holistic,” with their therapists assessing disabled children and young people so “we can give them an appropriate wheelchair to fit their young lives.” Full details on how to apply for Wheelchair Services, along with the other services provided by Whizz-Kidz, can be found on the charity’s website. The majority of Whizz-Kidz funding comes from donations – the charity raised £6.4million in 2014, more than eighty percent of which came from voluntary sources including trusts, companies and individuals. Thus investing in fund raising is a vital part of the organisations sustainability. Again in 2014, 28pence from every £1 raised went towards fundraising, with the remaining 72pence being spent on services to transform the lives of disabled children. In common with most charities, Whizz-Kidz enjoys the support of an enthusiastic team of volunteers, who assist in the delivery of a number of their services across the UK, and more specifically in the South East. However, Whizz-Kidz always has a need for more volunteers to help the charity reach more young
SUSSEX LOCAL people. Volunteers can get involved in a variety of ways – with the young people’s services, like the Ambassador Youth Clubs, there is a club in Brighton as well as the Worthing branch; with Wheelchair Skills Courses or by supporting the fundraising team in the county. There is also a new mentoring programme underway with the charity providing training for those volunteers wishing to mentor young people. The recruitment process is always open and volunteers can investigate opportunities available on the Whizz-Kidz website.

In Your Garden Monthly gardening ideas and tasks by Andrew Staib of Glorious Gardens Flats - The classic one is Achellia whose flower heads look like like saucers on a stem – A.Praprica is lovely Sprays and Plumes - These plants soften up a planting scheme and relax the forms of the other plants and the overall look of the bed- grasses are the obvious choice as well as tall Crocosmia at the back of a border and tall, languid Bronze Fennel Windows - These are plants that are so delicate and spacious that one can see through them to the other plants. Two examples are Stipa giganta and Verbena bonariensis (try ‘ V.b Lollypop’ if you don’t want too much height) Spires and Spikes - these shapes are pretty much essential if you want variation of form –as well as Foxgloves and Acanthus you can think of Veronicastrum, Astilbes in moist soil or the smaller,the bushy spikes of Lavender and the bullet proof, bottle brush flowers of the Persicaria family. Lattice - This is found in the strong lines of ferns
Designing with Perennials Perennials are the smaller plants in your garden that die back each winter and spring back to life the next year. This month we are going to look at how you can put them together and how to make a combination of an interesting variety of shapes. (We will look at colour in a future article) A good flower bed needs a blend of shapes and tones – otherwise it can look boring and ‘samey’. Below are some categorise that will help you see what could perhaps enrich your garden beds. Froth - These are plants that have an abundance of small, light flowers like Gypsophila and Crambe cordifolia Buttons - These flowers are bright dots of colours like Geum and Dianthus, Poppies and Alliums

Hopefully this will help you look at your borders afresh to see what extra instruments are needed in your orchestra.

Gardening Tasks for July
Deadhead perennial flowers as they will often create a new flush of buds as you inhibit the energy of the plant going into seed production. Plus the first flush of Hybrid and Patio roses may have finished so deadhead them back to a couple of new, outward facing buds.
It is safe to bring any tender plants out from your conservatory now.
Make sure any ponds don’t get swamped with blanket weed.
Any shrubs that flowered in June can be cut back eg Wigelia and Philadelphius.
Any new plants that went in this year will dry out much faster than established plants as their roots are not as plugged into the surrounding soil.
Keep pinching out side shoots on your tomatoes.
Keep sowing salad for a continuous crop.

Lisbon – what a fabulous city! I spent four days in Lisbon to celebrate my (special!) birthday. Lisbon is simply wonderful - we spent the days eating, drinking and walking around this beautiful city. The city is stunning and the mixture of cultures is evident on the beautiful wall facades and architecture. You can spend many hours walking and discovering but beware, Lisbon is very hilly - however, there are numerous options for when you get tired. There are tuk tuks and taxis on most streets, trams and funiculars. Even lifts that are built into some hills that can take you up to other street levels. It's a pretty amazing thing to experience! All in all, I would recommend Lisbon in a heartbeat for a holiday or city break. It's a fun, vibrant, cultural city with amazing food and things to see!

Annual returns to change The Annual Return is being replaced by a new ‘Confirmation Statement’ from the 30th June, says Sarah from Monks Accountants If you own a company you will have had to file an annual return with Companies House each year so as there is a public record of specific details about the internal structure of your company on a specific date. The Annual Return is being replaced by a new ‘Confirmation Statement’ from the 30th June 2016. The new statement will also be required to be filed at least once a year but it can also be updated as many times as you like throughout the year, for instance if you issue new shares, but you will only be charged a fee by Companies House once in the year. The fee has yet to be determined. The main difference from the Annual Return is that the Confirmation Statement must include information of Persons with Significant Control (PSC). Companies must take reasonable steps to disclose on the public
register all persons with significant control or influence. The new rules for PSC came into force in April and by now every company should hold a PSC register. Failure to supply the information will result in fines or imprisonment (!). However for most owner managed companies this should be quite a straight forward process.

Can you imagine how you would feel if it was suggested that you leave your home and loved one and move to an “old people’s home”… Panic, anger, fear, betrayal are some words that come to mind. When the time comes for residential specialist dementia care, it is ROOM AVAILABLE NOW! when the quality of life for both sufferer and carer can be improved. Woodlands offers twenty-four hour professional care with the majority of staff having the equivalent of NVQ 3 and 4 with continuous updated courses provided. Families are able to take their loved one out or enjoy home made tea and cake in a relaxed atmosphere within the home daily or when ever is possible for them. This allows for quality social time, and families know that the personal, nutritional and complex care needs of their loved ones are being provided for every hour of the day. There is however one fact that is not frequently admitted. This is… that the earlier this move takes place, the better the result for the resident as they are able to cope with the changes to their lifestyle. No-one wants to make this sad decision, and in reality the temptation is to wait and “see how it goes”. Unfortunately, what so often happens is a catastrophe! A fall, midnight walk, not to mention all the little things that can play havoc with Dementia - lack of nutrition, hydration, cleanliness leading to infections and indeed the appearance that the actual Dementia is worse than it is! Why would we want minimum care at home, instead of the continuously caring atmosphere where a sufferer of Dementia is protected from all of the fear, indignity and complete isolation they experience most of the time. Come and visit Woodlands and see the difference professional family care could make for your loved one. We have a saying at Woodlands, “Enable a person to be the best they can be!” For further information and to visit Woodlands House contact me Oonagh Cacioppo Manager/ Proprietor: house.woodlands@gmail.com 01903725458 or 07815762623

How to care for little teeth (and avoid toddler tantrums!) Looking after your child’s teeth, from that first tiny tooth, will lay the foundations for good oral care and general health as they grow up. “Brushing a baby’s teeth can be simple and stressfree” says Arvin Mirzadeh of Pulborough dental clinic, Vitality. “It’s when they become toddlers that can make it tricky. ‘I don’t want to brush my teeth’ or ‘I want to do it myself’ are all too common phrases heard in households everywhere.” Here, Arvin offers some great advice to help parents achieve a healthy dental regime with their toddlers: Be enthusiastic: If you make brushing a chore, then kids will generally feel the same about it. Be positive and do your own teeth at the same time. Kids learn by example so if you’re happy, they should be happy too. Don’t give over control: Toddlers want to be independent and will try to insist on brushing their own teeth. However, children don’t possess the dexterity to brush their own teeth until about six years old. Keep hold of the brush for as long as you can, at least until they have a lot of practice under their belts. Letting them put toothpaste on their own brush can give them a sense of control. Try to help by gently
guiding their hand, brushing each tooth properly and for the recommended two minutes. Once they are able to brush their own teeth, supervision is key as many children will give their teeth a quick ‘once over’ before rushing off to play Make it fun: There is a huge variety of fun toothbrushes with lights and sounds, smart phone apps with brushing songs and interesting two minute timers on the market. Using props like this can really engage a child’s imagination and attention – hopefully making the routine more fun and less stressful! Don’t forget the Tooth Fairy: Tell your children about the Tooth Fairy so that when they lose their first baby tooth, it is an exciting moment, not one to be feared. Vitality’s dental therapists have been specifically trained in looking after the dental health of children of all ages plus they get to sit in the big chair and get a sticker!

Poo! A walk in the countryside with a dog is very enjoyable and most people take seriously the responsibility that comes with dog ownership. However we all know that there is nothing more disgusting than a pile of dog mess left on a footpath or open space. The dog is only doing what nature requires but the owner is breaking the law by not picking it up and disposing of
it appropriately – this does not include hanging a full bag in a tree! You may be a recent dog owner so may not be aware that in 1998 the Horsham District Council Dog Fouling Order came into effect, stating that “it is the responsibility of the dog owner to clean up after the dog if it fouls in a public area.” The law applies outside your own garden covering footpaths, open spaces, verges, alleyways, playing fields and any other public place and the maximum fine is £1,000. If a dog waste bin is full it can be put in public litter bins (double bagged) or taken home and disposed of with the general refuse. HDC services approximately 300 dog waste bins which are emptied on a regular basis depending on usage and location. If you find a bin overflowing or you want to report dog fouling go to: www.horsham.gov.uk/bins/reportit or phone 01403 215100 For more information on any of the above please contact the Locum Parish Clerk 01798 817434 or wcpcclerk@aol.com Please note the office is only open one day per week (usually Tuesday) although contact may be made by email.
