Legal Column with Jackie Campion, Principal Solicitor at Campion Solicitors

Have you registered your will yet? Campion Solicitors has recently become a member of the Certainty national Registry of Wills.

You know today, but will they know tomorrow? In a recent survey, 67% of people did not know where to find their parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Wills. Tens of thousands of estates fall into intestacy each year, which can cause emotional and financial turmoil for loved ones. Changing circumstances, moving to another area or simply the passage of time can sometimes make it difficult for beneficiaries to locate a Will.

We Can offeR RegiStRation of an exiSting Will oR neW Will We will keep your Will safe here, and the registry lets other solicitors in the UK know that your solicitor holds it. This means that when your Will is needed by your beneficiaries it is easily traceable and not overlooked. What doeS the RegiStRy of WillS do? It digitally records that we are holding your Will; no one there sees it, we keep it here. After a death, the registry gives us details about anyone who is looking for your Will. We answer the query if it is legitimate, thus protecting both your privacy and your beneficiaries interests. pRoteCt youR family noW, foR the futuRe... At Campion solicitors we will give you clear advice when making a Will and details of a fixed fee. All our initial interviews are free and without obligation to enable your to make a decision on how to proceed. Call Jackie Campion on 0151 342 9021 for a no obligation meeting.

Well known and respected local bathroom and wetroom experts, Wirral Wetrooms have announced a massive quarter of a million pound investment and expansion project.

The first phase of the expansion to their upstairs showroom has begun with renovations to incorporate fully functional bathrooms settings including 10 operational showers and 12 working basins and taps all with the latest digital technology.

you can easily upgrade your existing loo. They all include an oscillating shower with forward and backwards movement, air purification and a warm air dryer. The Geberit AquaClean range is comfortable and stylish too. And with a model to suit every style of home, it would make a perfect addition to your new spa-like bathroom. Q Should I be concerned about how much water is used in spray-function toilets? A The Geberit AquaClean 4000 only uses 400ml of water at each use, and although this is more than a normal loo, there are positive environmental aspects to this choice, such as using less toilet paper. Water, chemicals and other raw materials are wasted in the production of toilet paper, and while it’s biodegradable, the process still leaves chemical traces in our water supply. Q I’m really interested in buying a Geberit toilet with a spray function, but I have heard they’re very expensive. Are there any more affordable alternatives?

Owner Dave Sergison commented, ‘Customers will literally be able to

And you can even spend-a penny by sampling the fabulous new Geberit Aquaclean! Finally, complete the picture by choosing from a selection of their stunning tiles and you really be able to create a ‘tried and tested’ space to be proud of.

Dave commented “We recognised Irby as a great place to stay and grow in, we like the space we are in. We’ve taken on 2 apprentices and making this significant investment into the building can only improve it.” “Our new showroom will be completely unique for the Wirral, and will revolutionise the experience of buying a new bathroom for our customers.

All the fun of the fair

The weather was fine once again for the Neston Village Fair on 5th July, which brought in plenty of visitors to Comradesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Field. The theme this year was TV characters, which saw lots of fancy dress costumes worn. There were all manner of stalls and entertainment, including the Hip and Harmony choir, gymnastics display, the crowning of the rose queen, classic cars and stage performances by the Little Actors group.

Pathway to friendship A community planting session at Neston’s Cuckoo Lane has sown the seed of an idea for a residents’ group to help care for the historic bridleway. Cheshire West and Chester Council is now asking for anyone interested in joining a ‘Friends of Cuckoo Lane’ group to come forward. The suggestion arose during an evening stroll along the lane by local residents, Councillors and Council staff. They came together to sow wildflower seed following the recent improvements scheme which has seen the path laid with a durable surface in keeping with the local surroundings. Cllr Kay Loch said: “The number of local residents and user groups who engaged with us to re-design the improvements scheme was a clear indication of just how much Cuckoo Lane is cherished. “I think that harnessing that community

passion in a group that can be involved with its care and maintenance and any future schemes is a fantastic idea.” Cllr Louise Gittins said: “I really enjoyed chatting to the residents who turned out for the seed planting and they responded positively to the suggestion for a ‘Friends of’ group. “I have no doubt there will be great interest from other local residents wishing to play their part in protecting and enhancing this historic bridleway for generations to come.” Anyone who is interested in being part of a Friends of Cuckoo Lane group should email ruralcommunities@ cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk Local residents, Councillors and Cheshire West and Chester Council staff take part in a wildflower planting session at Cuckoo Lane.

Former Chinese restaurant was unsafe and unhygienic The owner of the former Chinese Chef restaurant in Bridge Street, Neston, has pleaded guilty to 12 food safety and hygiene offences, and has been fined £600 and ordered to pay costs of £1,250. Din Zau Ly of no fixed address appeared before West Cheshire Magistrates Court on 11th July in a case brought by Cheshire West and Chester Council. It followed an unannounced visit by Council Food Safety Officers in March 2013. The charges included failure to maintain personal hygiene of his staff by not requiring them to wear protective clothing; failing to maintain the premises in a clean condition, poor structural condition of the surfaces in the kitchen, failure to protect food from contamination by storing foodstuffs in a fridge in a rear yard. Also defective wall and floor surfaces in the kitchen, failure to ensure staff were suitably trained in line with their work activities and failure to maintain records to demonstrate the implementation of a food safety system used for managing risks in the food industry. Cllr Lynn Riley, Executive Member for Localities which includes Environmental Health said: “Even though the restaurant closed down soon after the inspection by Council officers, the serious nature of the conditions and the risk to the health of the

public warranted this case to be pursued in the courts. “The Council works with all businesses to ensure compliance to the high standards in food hygiene required for public safety, but where there is a total disregard for those standards, then the only recourse available is prosecution.”

Making maths fun The children of Woodfall Primary School enjoyed taking part in two days of maths challenges in the form of a “Fun Maths Roadshow” which was provided by the Outreach team from Liverpool University, led by Chris Marchant. The team provided 50 challenges for each year group to complete as many as they could in a given time. The challenges enabled them to apply their maths skills learnt in school in hands on, practical problems and puzzles. It was a race to see who could compete the most and children responded to the competitive nature of the roadshow very positively, collaborating together to succeed. The year 6 pupils also enjoyed a “Big Maths” session led by the university earlier in the year and were runners up in this year’s Inter-primary Maths Quiz, also hosted by Chris and his team.

Ness and Little Neston WI

We have had two very different but excellent speakers at our June and July meetings. Lynda Hill (Cheshire Woman f the Year 2014) gace an inspiring and emotional talk about “The Joshua Tree Holiday House Centre” which is being built to offer support for children suffering from cancer, and their families. Lynda and her family have worked ceaselessly for years to saise funds for this project which is now being built in Cheshire. In July we were entertained by Brian Greene and Walt Disney _ the story of his music accompanied by snippets of wonderful Disney films to illustrate each aspect of the stories. Our Craft group organised an “open day” for the other members to come and make Bunting, which had it’s first airing at the Village Fete, draped around the WI cake stall, which as usual was a resounding success. Several other outings were enjoyed, Liverpool Everyman Theatre ;Portmerion and the Ffestiniog Railway; Neston Players and lovely local Gardens were visited. A busy Summer programme follows with Canal Trips, Walks and Cathedral visits. Meetings take place at St. Michaels Church, Marshlands Road. Little Neston at 7.30 on the first Tuesday of the month. Visitors are welcome. Further information about our WI, phone 336 4386.

Fairground rides, Bouncy Castle, Pony Rides, Crazy Golf, Beer Tent, Bbq, Cream Teas and much, much more were on offer whilst Chester High School Jazz Band , Neston Cheerleaders and Neston Karate entertained everyone. Susan Wilding, Chairwoman of the Parents Association said: “The summer fair is our main fundraiser and is going from strength to strength. It is only made possible by the dedication of the PA and a team of volunteers who give their time freely to organise such a wonderful event which is enjoyed by all the children, their families and the local community; I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved in making the fair another great success!”

Life-saving legacy of tragic Joseph Windsor A CHARITY set up in the wake of the tragic death of a schoolboy has received an award for its work in putting lifesaving defibrillators across Neston. The Joseph Windsor Heart Trust was established following Joseph’s death from the heart condition Restrictive Cardiomyopathy in April 2011. The concept was to raise the awareness of heart conditions in children, adolescents and adults and to place living saving equipment into schools and leisure centres in the local area. Since June 2013 the charity has put 15 defibrillators into the following schools: Neston, Woodfall Lane, Parkgate, Willaston, Bishop Wilson , Thornton Hough, St Winefride’s, Childer Thornton, Gayton as well as Neston Leisure Centre, Zone Fitness, Neston Community Centre and Neston High Street (Andrews Estates) plus two defibrillators at Neston Nomads football club. Now, the charity has received a Gold Cardiac Smart Award from North West Ambulance in recognition of its achievements. Proud Joseph’s mum Debbie said: “The people of Neston and further afield are very supportive and our right behind everything that we have achieved so. Neston should be very proud to have all these defibrillators in place. We have also been short listed by Sainsbury’s for their charity of the year 2015. “We have also given training on how to use these and when people see how easy they

are to use they are amazed. Our aim is to get as many defibrillators out into the community as possible. We are at present looking into getting a def out on the High street in Neston in a locked cabinet. All our defibrillators are registered with North West Ambulance Service. “ If somebody you know is having a cardiac arrest you would ring 999 ambulance service and the ambulance controller will tell you were your nearest defibrillator is (if in a cabinet they will give you the code).” There is a charity night on Saturday 6th September at Neston Civic Hall. Tickets are £5 each and can be bought by contacting Debbie Windsor on 07527301561 Debbie added: “We would like to thank everybody so far for their support and hope that we continue to raise awareness of how important and easy defibrillators are to us. Please make a note of where your nearest defibrillator is as they do save lives.” Debbie Windsor (Joseph’s mum), Paula Robinson and Debbie Ball with the award and a defibrillator.

Dramatic win for Neston For the first time in 2014 Little Actors Theatre entered a group of young actors in the under 14s category of the Leverhulme Drama Festival. Director/writer Mike Lockley created a new play called ‘Shakespeare’s Dream’ for the cast aged from 5-13 years. Mike, along with Natasha Symms (choreography/director) and Samantha Giblin (producer/director), led the children through the eight month project to a great achievement. Little Actors did not know what to expect so the team was delighted when we were awarded the Adjudicator’s Trophy for Originality and Endeavour. Plus three of the young cast received nominations for the Best Actor Award. We are very proud of the nominees Jessie Jenkinson and Joshua Stevens both aged 10 and

Jonathan Stevens aged 13. The adjudicator, Bev Clark of the Guild of Drama Adjudicators, was pleased that Little Actors Theatre tackled Shakespearean material with such young children. The five page written adjudication was complimentary and gave fair critique in equal measure. The staff, parents and Neston community are delighted with the children’s achievement. Little Actors Theatre is a Registered Charity that offers access to the arts for all children regardless of economic background or experience. Coming next is our hugely successful summer performing arts course in August. Funding enables LATC to offer free places for low income families.
