Horsham driver jailed after 90mph pursuit phil dennett News Editor

A Horsham driver has been jailed after he risked speeds of more than 90 miles an hour during a police pursuit.

Robert Freeman was sentenced to 20 months’ imprisonment for his actions in Crawley and Horsham on the afternoon of March 18.

The 27-year-old carpenter, of Shottermill, Horsham, was also disqualified from driving for three years and ordered to pay a £140 victim surcharge at Lewes Crown Court after he pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.

The court heart that at 11.55am on

His sentence reflects the seriousness of the offences he committed and the complete disregard he showed for other road users March 18, police became aware of an Audi Q7 after it triggered an Automatic Number Plate Recognition camera in Crawley.

It later triggered another camera in the town and was seen to travel towards Horsham.

Officers from the Sussex Police

Roads Policing Unit identified the vehicle before the Robin Hood Roundabout on the A24 southbound, and it was followed onto the A264 towards Five Oaks.

Shortly afterwards, the vehicle failed to stop when signalled to do so by police and a pursuit followed.

During the pursuit, the vehicle was driven at what a court was told were high speeds and in a dangerous manner in a narrow country road, before officers lost sight of it.

The vehicle was later found parked at the rear of a farm in West Chiltington Lane, near Coolham, at about 1pm, where Freeman was arrested and taken into custody.

Investigating officer Peter KingFisher said: “Freeman was witnessed driving on the A24, while disqualified and uninsured, at speeds in excess of 90mph right in front of a marked police car. He then pulled off onto the A264 and stopped at a set of temporary traffic lights. With police behind him and the lights still red, he sped through into oncoming traffic, forcing other motorists out of the way.

“We pursued Freeman but lost him as he travelled at 80mph along Bashurst Hill, which is a very narrow country lane. The manner of his driving throughout was disgraceful and a lot of other motorists had to take evasive action to avoid a collision. He could quite easily have caused a serious accident. “His sentence reflects the seriousness of the offences he committed and the complete disregard he showed for other road users.”

Factory boss spells out TATA steel crisis worries

A factory boss from Small Dole outlined to an MP the far-reaching practical effect closure of TATA steel plants would have.

Arundel South Downs MP Nick Herbert visited Stoba UK to discuss the wider impacts on the business if steel production at plants owned

by TATA ceased.

Matthew Chart, the managing director of Stoba Prazisionstechnik UK, toured the factory with Mr Herbert and discussed business concerns relating to the possible closure of TATA steel.

Mr Chart set up the Small Dole business, which is now owned by Stoba and employs 60 people,seven years ago. The factory engineers

parts for fuel systems for a number of truck manufacturers such as DAF, Daimler and Volvo. Every DAF road tractor sold in North America since January 2013 has major parts in it made that have been manufactured in Small Dole.

The parts are produced from a specialist steel blend that can handle immense pressures inside the engine. Mr Herbert heard that TATA is the only company that makes this blend of steel which has been developed over many years and is low in impurities, making it the most reliable material to use.

Mr Chart explained his concern that if steel production at TATA’s Rotheram plant were to cease,

manufacturers which rely on their steel would be forced to look elsewhere for supply. Switching to a new product would mean a long period of testing and validation which could be prohibitively expensive.

Mr Chart said: “I was very pleased that Nick considered it an important issue and was able to take the time to visit the factory and discuss the potential difficulties that my business could face if some of TATA’s UK operation were to close.”

Mr Herbert said: “I was grateful to Matthew for showing me first hand the importance of UK steelproduction to his business and local employment. It shows that the effects of steel plant closures would be felt across the country, not just where the plants at located.”

Dorit’s story of survival astonishes students

A survivor of the World War 2 Holocaust told her story to a younger generation.

Dorit Oliver-Wolff described to children how she managed to escape the Nazis while more than 6 million fellow Jews were exterminated.

The Tandbridge House School Year 9 History students from Horsham submitted the following report on the visit.

“Dorit was a young girl during World War Two where the Nazi regime was at its peak. This was a troubling time for Dorit, for she was Jewish. Anti-Semitism was prominent throughout Europe and many discriminated against the Jews. Dorit recalled memories of the discrimination she would face as people would spit at her in the streets and shout abuse.

“The Nazis were particularly cruel and would imprison Jews, as well as others, and use them for forced labour or often kill them. Six million Jewish people were killed, and many were sent to extermination camps. The Nazis saw no difference between male, female, adult or child; only Jew. “The Holocaust has shocked the world ever since. Dorit allowed us to follow her story through the eyes of a young innocent Jewish girl and discover that life is barely ever black or white.

“She was captured as a young girl by the Nazis but by staying very brave and determined she managed to escape with the help of Nazi officers. She explained that not all Nazis agreed with Hitler’s brutal methods, but were simply following orders out of fear.

“Her brave account had most of her audience on the edge of their seats and Dorit spread the message to never judge a book by its cover and not to stereotype. This supports Tanbridge’s ethos, as a Unicef Rights Respecting School, to be kind and respectful to all regardless of our differences.

“Dorit’s talk allowed the students to grasp a personal account of the Holocaust and to understand the significance of 6 million people being killed, each who had a story of their own.

“Students were taken aback by her enthusiastic and positive outlook on life even when life was

difficult to survive.

“Dorit showed that even when going through hardship, remember that life is a blessing and everyone will find happiness.

“Students were overwhelmed with Dorit’s success story as well after the War, Germany made Dorit a popstar! Singing was always important to Dorit and she would often sing during bomb raids to calm both her and others around her.

Students were able to hear some of Dorit’s music which warmed many hearts.

“Students found the event to be an invaluable experience and Dorit’s demeanour helped students feel at ease with such a sensitive topic.”

After the talk, Dorit sold copies of her book “From Yellow Star to Pop Star” and personally signed them for the students.

Cadets celebrate Queen’s birthday amid eviction fears Cadets cut cake for Queen’s 90th birthday

Horsham Sea Cadets cut a cake to celebrate the Queen’s 90th birthday with some weightier matters on their mind.

The group say they are having to take legal action after being told to leave their headquarters at Broadbridge Heath Village Centre.

The group has used their part of the building since the 1980s and would face a search for new premises if they have to leave.

It caters for youngsters between 10 and 18 and says it has been negotiating with the Village Centre over the last few months.

It says it offered to share the part of the building it occupies with other organisations but its offer was rejected by the Village Centre

committee because the Sea Cadets wanted recognition that they would have part of the building after any redevelopment of the Village Centre.

Lt Vicky Milligan, the Sea Cadets Commanding Officer said: “Unfortunately the Village Centre started legal action against us and we feel we have no option but to go to court to protect our home. We are reluctant to take this step as it is a waste of time and resources. Both organisations are small local charities run by volunteers with limited resources. We are spending a lot of time on this which would be time better spent providing activities for our young people. We initially

hoped to go to mediation but the Village Centre did not want to do so. We hoped we had negotiated a settlement but their committee rejected it at their last meeting which was very disappointing.”

The Village Centre Committee is planning to redevelop the site and the Sea Cadets say they are fully supportive of that and have confirmed that they are happy to move into a different part of the building after its redevelopment.

It says Horsham District Council has said that the Sea Cadets do not need to vacate the building for the Centre to get the redevelopment money for the project.

The club was asked to comment.

Opportunity to widen life experience Young students learned about volunteering overseas to widen their experience of life.

The youngsters from Collyer’s college at Horsham welcomed Steve Summers from Outreach International for a presentation and question and answer session.

Outreach International focus on individual volunteer placements in communityled projects, where volunteers live and work among the

communities they serve, enjoying a richly rewarding cultural experience, as well as a productive volunteering role.

Lucy Hargreaves, from the college’s Progression Directorate, said: “It is certainly very important that our students are aware of this pathway as an option for the future.”

More than 30 students enjoyed the event and were interested in listening to what Outreach International could offer students, through a variety of projects ranging from social responsibility to conservation in countries around the world.

What did the Romans do for us?

Philip said: “I found the session very informative and it’s really inspired me to venture out of my comfort zone to experience new opportunities”.

Mr Summers added: “Travelling abroad offers huge potential to develop new life skills and cultural insights; to do so while volunteering enables you to learn those lessons while living and working as part of a community, which is a more meaningful and responsible way of travelling.”

Collyer’s Assistant Principal Melanie Russell said: “This event is just one of many that the students will have in the coming months, to help them make the right decision for their futures.”

History was not at all that it seemed when Farlington School’s Prep 4 visited Fishbourne Roman Palace as an introduction to their ‘Romans’ topic.

They were surprised to learn that the palace probably belonged to a Celtic king.

The size of the plot and the ruins helped the girls to appreciate the grandeur of the Roman palace. They all agreed that it would have been an honour to have been a guest at such a splendid house.

A highlight of the day was the workshop. The girls had the opportunity to write their name using Roman letters on a wax slate, design their own mosaic, use a spindle to make yarn and work as a slave in the

kitchen.

However, some of them found it very difficult to grind the wheat into flour using a millstone. Their muscles weren’t quite strong enough.

Some of the girls were dressed up in costumes and it was really interesting to learn about the different types of clothing worn by the rich and poor. The girls were surprised at the length of a toga and were fascinated to see how it was worn.

The school said: “It was an enjoyable day and the girls learned so much from their hands-on experiences. They came away excited to learn more about their topic back in school.”

leader to get them ready for performances.

Deborah Sexton, Lead for Therapists and Outpatient Services at St Catherine’s said: “This is a unique opportunity for the right person to help promote the local hospice in a whole new light. St Catherine’s is looking for someone with a warm personality who can commit to two rehearsals a week, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. The right choir leader will inspire choir members whilst being sensitive to some of their changing needs, have a wide range of musical ability and ideally, have previous experience of leading community projects or encouraging

people to sing in a supportive and enjoyable environment.”

St Catherine’s is currently accepting expressions of interest for the paid role. Please send an email with details of previous experience, weekday availability, expected remuneration and thoughts and ideas for the choir to deborah. sexton@stch.org.uk or for general information, please call St Catherine’s on 01293 447333.

de la Crème like they would the Chocolate World Masters.

Cake creator Laure cannot reveal anything about the show itself and the challenges for obvious reasons. But Laure, who retrained as a pastry chef from a corporate career only 2 years ago in order to open her own event based patisserie, Pudding Fairy, is incredibly excited about the whole show. “It’s fantastic to have a new show dedicated to patisserie and chocolate in the UK. “In Lyon, where I come from, pastry is a big art and part of our lives. My first Saturday job was in my local patisserie. And Lyon hosts every two years the amazing “coupe du monde de la patisserie” too.

“I hope Crème de la Creme shows people the level of com-

mitment, hard work, precision and skill it takes to be a great pastry chef. And also the creativity that lives in pastry chefs’ heads, the magic, and the fun. There is so much magic and fun in pastry, that’s one of the reasons I love it so much”.

“On a personal level, whatever the outcome of taking part in such a top level competition, it’s a great honour to have the opportunity to compete against other UK based chefs with such incredible talent. I think we all have a lot of respect and admiration for each other, for each pastry chef who has put themselves out there for this first series, braving the unknown. But you have to be brave in life. Nothing incredible comes out of staying in your comfort zone!

Storrington gets ducks in a row for big day

Storrington stages its annual Duck Race on May 8.

Fans will get all their ducks in a row from noon at Riverside Walk and Library Car Park in the heart of the village.

The Storrington Village Duck Race is a long standing fixture on the Storrington social calendar and is a much-anticipated day.

There will five hotly contested duck races each featuring individually numbered rubber ducks which will speed out of the traps, down the stream eager to cross the finishing line first.

Marshalls will be standing deep in the stream checking for people ducking the rules.

The final race is made up of

the top 10 placed ducks from the first five races and this is where the elite ducks have their day.

Cash prizes are on offer for winners of this final race so organisers say it is definitely worth backing a duck or two.

Ducks can be bought on the day for £1 each duck.

The word duck comes from Old English *d ce “diver”, a derivative of the verb *d can “to duck, bend down low as if to get under something, or dive”, because of the way many species in the dabbling duck group feed by upending There will also be fun-fair rides and face-painting, bouncy castles, hook-a-duck and bat-

the-rate, creative craft stalls and gourmet coffee as well as bric-abrac and the ever-popular Dad’s BBQ which will this year be given a run for its money by a mouthwatering cake stall that would put Mary Berry to shame.

All proceeds from the Duck Race will go to Storrington First School, which teaches children aged 4-10 in years Reception through to Year 5.

Friends of Storrington First School is an independent organisation made up of parents and carers. The team put on many events in the year with the Duck Race the pinnacle of the calendar. Details at http://www.storringtonduckrace.co.uk/

Steyning minerals scheme under consideration A proposed plan for future mineral development that includes a site near Steyning is being put before the public.

The draft Joint Minerals Local Plan has been written by West Sussex County Council and the South Downs National Park Authority.

It sets out an idea of how minerals will be produced, supplied and transported in West Sussex until 2033.

Now both authorities want to know what people think about it and a public consultation is running until June 17 .

Once agreed, it will provide the basis for making planning decisions about minerals-related development. It will replace the previous Minerals Local Plan adopted in 2003.

The draft plan aims to protect the special character and environment of West Sussex.

At the same time, it will make sure there are enough minerals to support economic growth.

Activities such as quarrying, storage, processing and transportation have all been carefully considered.

The draft plan has allocated two sites to help meet the need for minerals in West Sussex.

West Sussex County Council’s Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport John O’Brien said:

“This draft plan set out our vision to provide the right way forward for mineral production in West Sussex.

“We feel it safeguards resources, protects our environment and meets the need for minerals to support economic growth in future years.

“It will give residents, and the industry, greater certainty about where mineral development can take place in the county.”

He added: “We want to find out what communities, businesses and other stakeholders think and whether they agree our draft plan is realistic.

“So please take the opportunity to comment and respond.”

South Downs National Park Authority’s Chief Executive, Trevor Beattie, said: “We’ve worked in close partnership with West Sussex County Council to develop a draft plan that recognises the importance of the National Park’s protected landscapes whilst meeting the local and national need for minerals.

“We hope that both communities and the industry will take the opportunity to look at and comment on our draft plan.”

Safety fears spark bus stop losses A crash that injured nine people has led to bus stops being suspended on the A264 and A24 for safety reasons.

They are where the bus has to stop on an inside lane because there is no lay-by or other space for the bus to pull in. The y took effect from Monday.

The stops and services affected are A264 between Horsham and Crawley at The Cherry Tree (eastbound), Park Road (eastbound), Holmbush Farm (eastbound); A259 Merston: Kings Head Green Lane (northbound); A259 Ferring at Langbury Lane (eastbound); the A24 between Findon and Washington at Worthing Crematorium (northbound), North End/ Worthing Crematorium (southbound), North End (northbound), North Farm (northbound) North Farm (southbound), Windlesham House School (northbound); A24 between Washington and Buckbarn at Washington Roundabout (northbound), Washington Roundabout (southbound), Rock Road (northbound), Spring Gardens (southbound), Old Barn Nursery (northbound).

Officers reviewed the safety of all bus stops on the dual carriageway sections of the A24 between Findon and Horsham and the A264 between Horsham and Crawley.

This action by West Sussex County Council comes after an incident on the A24 in January when a van collided with a bus that stopped to pick up passengers in Washington, injuring nine people.

There have been bus stops on the dual carriageway sections of the A24 and A264 for many years,

some of which do not have laybys.

Buses are forced to stop on the inside lane.

A safety review concluded, given today’s traffic conditions, these bus stops are a road safety risk.

Suspensions are planned to start from Monday, April 25.

In addition,

two stops on the A259 that operate in a similar way have been identified and will be temporarily suspended.

The stops and services affected are listed below: A24 between Findon and Washington: Worthing Crematorium (northbound), North End/Worthing Crematorium (southbound), North End (northbound), North Farm (northbound) North Farm (southbound), Windlesham House School (northbound).

Other bus stops on the A24, A264 and A259, where buses are able to pull over into lay-bys or slip roads are not affected and will continue to operate as normal.

Bus operators have been consulted and support this decision.

The County Council is working with the bus operators to identify alternative arrangements where possible.

West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport, John O’Brien, said: “We understand these changes may have an adverse impact on some bus passengers.

“However, reducing the road safety risk to the travelling public has to take precedence.

“Over the next few months we will be consulting with local communities to understand the impact of suspending the bus stops.

“The results will be used to determine what, if any, measures should be considered to resolve any issues or concerns that are identified.”

Older players enjoy slam dunking Basketball action

Walking basketball is proving popular in Horsham.

After a highly successful recent taster session, a walking basketball short programme is now being run by Horsham District Council’s Sports Development team to give men and women aged 50 plus in

Horsham district the opportunity to enjoy the sport.

The three week initiative started last Wednesday, and runs from noon to 1pm at the Holbrook Club’s sports hall at North Heath Lane in Horsham. Experienced local coach Nick Probin will oversee the sessions.

Nick has visited a similar programme at the Surrey Sports Park and been impressed how the walking version of the sport is able to capture a broad church of interest including people looking to rehabilitate from injury, absolute beginners and those motivated by the desire to stay fit and healthy given that that walking can be at different speeds.

Sessions include some skill development work and lots of match play to put shooting, passing and dribbling techniques to the test.

Aside from not running, the only other adapted rule involved in game play is men being restricted to defending female players in non-contact style.

Cabinet Member for Leisure and Culture Cllr Jonathan Chowen said: “I am really pleased that our Sports Development team at the council have been innovative to benefit as many people as possible to get back into physical activity. Walking basketball will benefit everyone who participates in many ways.

Not only will it boost their health and fitness, but it will also give everyone the chance to socialise with other players which is equally important.

“I would encourage as many of you as possible to sign up and get involved.”

The cost is £5 a session. For further information and to register interest contact Ian.ford@horsham.gov.uk or 07764 146338.

‘Circles and Cycles’ send Francis on a prestige course Francis ponders over design

A talented member of staff at one of the most popular gardens in the South has won a highly sought scholarship because of his outstanding design work.

Francis Annette, team leader of the Southern Hemisphere Garden for the past 10 years at Wakehurst Gardens, near Ardingly, has won a scholarship to The London College of Garden Design’s Garden Design Diploma at Kew with his outstanding designs for the Carriage Ring at Wakehurst.

The competition was tough as members of the gardens, woodland and arboretum, nursery and logistics unit at Wakehurst entered their ideas in order to win a place on this prestigious one year course, run by Chelsea Gold Medal Winner Andrew Wilson.

Based at Kew, The London College of Garden Design normally offer one place to a staff member at Kew every year but this year Wakehurst teams were delighted when they were given in the chance

15.00

instead. In February members of the Landscape and Horticulture team at Wakehurst were given a month in which to submit designs for a new containerised planting for the Carriage Ring to make the area look more colourful, dynamic and inhabited.

Of his winning ‘Circles & Cycles’ design Francis said, “I was inspired by the interaction between humans and plants, our need for plants in order to survive and the most important water cycle that enables us both to exist. A carriage ring is renowned for a constant cycle of people coming and going and they congregate here at Wakehurst for refreshment and relaxation. The similarly relaxed design will allow visitors to venture freely around the plants whilst exploring the water cycle and its wider implication.”

“I am absolutely thrilled to have won the design competition.

“It came as a complete surprise and I feel very privileged to be attending such a prestigious course under Andrew Wilson’s tutelage.

It is an incredible opportunity and I’m looking forward to developing a new set of skills and putting them into practice in the wider developments at Wakehurst. And, of course, I’m very excited by the prospect of seeing my design in the Carriage Ring” Visitors should get a chance to see Francis embarking on his design during the summer.

Chief Inspector Simon Nelson said: “Rogue trading is a problem which often disproportionately impacts upon some of the most vulnerable people in our communities.

The emotional and financial costs of people being hugely overcharged for work which is unnecessary or substandard, or being targeted for other crimes such as burglary, can be devastating.

“Rogue traders often travel long distances to commit offences, which is why we are supporting

this nationwide crackdown. I’m delighted that we have been able to take this opportunity to target these types of offenders, and see some excellent results.”

Steve Playle, the Chartered Trading Standards Institute lead officer for doorstep crime said: “Operation Rogue Trader is a great opportunity for the different partners involved in tackling doorstep crime to come together and carry out some enforcement work and to raise awareness of the issues. Cold calling criminals undertaking property maintenance work continue to exploit vulnerable and elderly home owners.

“Trading Standards officers right across the UK are committed to making criminals’ lives as difficult as possible by sharing intelligence, causing disruption and taking criminal prosecutions where necessary.”

Established in 1992, initially as a 9 hole course, the club added a further 9 holes, in 2000, to create the course members and visitors enjoy today. The course had been run under a management contract, but will now return to the family, headed by Tony Blunden’s son and daughter in law, Clive and Sara, and managed by daughter and son in law, Jo and Ferg.

The movement to family operations took place this week and in Clive’s words: “members and

guests can expect some exciting

This is a stunning golf course and one that represents my dad’s passion to build something for generations to come changes, backed by the investment required to make this course one of the best in the county”.

Clive added: “This is a stunning golf course and one that represents my dad’s passion to build some-

thing for generations to come. We felt that it was time that we put the investment into the course and facilities, and take it onto the next level under family management. Of course, the club is only as healthy as the membership, so we’ll be looking to make some big improvements, many on the course, but also giving time and resources towards improving the clubhouse and changing facilities.

“The first piece of good news for members and prospective members is that annual membership fees are being frozen at last year’s rates, as we believe it’s important to start off on the right foot and give members, and prospective members, the chance to see what an exciting future the club has.”

Rusper Golf Club has many endearing features, not least that it’s set in stunning woodland and presents a challenge for every level of golfer.

Under the management of the Blunden family, alongside a great value membership package, a wide range for society and green fee options will be available for those keen to see what a great course Rusper is, having grown-up over the past 20 or so years.

Free comic book day is here!

International Free Comic Book Day or FCBD has it’s known by fans arrives again this year on the 7th of May. Like most comic book shops across the globe, Gobsmack Comics in Piries Place will be taking part.

FCBD started 15 years ago and was created by a retailer Joe Field who wrote columns for an industry magazine.

He noticed successful comic book feature films were starting to provide the comic book industry with a positive cultural and financial turnaraound.

Field pitched the Free Comic Book Day idea in one of his columns and received a hugely positive reaction.

Spotted by Image Comics publisher Jim Valentino it was agreed the first FCBD would be held at the same time as the

Largest youth theatre festival in the world turns 21 West Sussex and Hampshire groups join the largest youth theatre festival in the world as it celebrates its 21st anniversary Chichester Festival Youth Theatre (CFYT) will join 10 other youth theatre groups, from Hampshire and West Sussex, for the 21st anniversary NT Connections Festival at The Capitol, Horsham from 24 - 29 May. On each evening of the festival week, two youth theatre groups will perform their pieces, and on the final evening, there will be an additional performance of two original pieces by CFYT. Each year, Connections offers a unique opportunity for youth theatres and school drama groups to stage plays, specially written for young people aged 13-19, by some of the UK’s most exciting playwrights, and to perform them in leading theatres around the country - along with the chance of performing at the National Theatre itself.

Connections 500 sees the festival double in size, to mark its 21st anniversary. 500 youth theatre companies, involving 10,000 young people from every corner of the UK, working with 40 major regional theatres, will perform twelve outstanding plays, drawn from the 150 works written by leading playwrights for young people since the festival began in 1995. The festival is open to all secondary schools, colleges, youth theatres and voluntary organisations, ranging from experienced young companies to groups who have never staged a production before.

Following a development week-

end for the company directors at the NT, each company stages their chosen play in their local venue, transfers their production to one of the NT’s partner theatres and performs alongside other Connections companies. Twelve companies will then be invited to perform their productions at the National Theatre in July.

Alice King-Farlow, NT Director of Learning, commented: “Connections has revolu-

marketing.

“Over 60,000 young people have taken part in Connections over the years, with audiences of 600,000 all over the UK. It’s immensely exciting to announce a hugely expanded Connections programme for 2016, which celebrates both past and future, by reviving some of the most successful plays from the Connections portfolio and welcoming double the number of participants to perform in

tionised the landscape for youth theatre over the 21 years of its existence, creating an extraordinary body of over 150 specially commissioned scripts for young performers by leading dramatists.

Teenagers also get the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of theatre-making, from set design to

their home venues and at our partner theatres across the UK; culminating, as usual, at the National Theatre festival itself.”

Tickets for NT Connections at The Capitol are £5 per evening. To book, please contact The Capitol Box Office.

AN EVENING WITH THE RUBETTES Sunday 1 May 7.30pm

RITA COOLIDGE

One of the most versatile singers of Rock, Rita Coolidge, is coming to The Capitol Rita Coolidge’s impact is undiminished; her voice as pure, sweet and powerful as ever, and her ability to get inside a song, honed by experience and overview.

Rita’s credentials are the stuff of legend. After earning a degree in art at Florida State University, the Tennessee native decided to give music a shot, before settling into a career as an art teacher. She moved to Memphis and was soon singing jingles, demos and background vocals, for a number of area bands.

Among them, was a husband and wife duo, Delaney & Bonnie. When the pair signed their record deal, Rita suddenly found herself on big-time pop music’s leading edge.

Her reputation, as an A-list backup singer, spread quickly. Joe Cocker enlisted her in that role and as a featured soloist on his Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour (Rita performed a song she’d co-written, Superstar, which would later be a huge hit for The Carpenters). Work with other rock royalty followed, including tours and recordings with Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Leon Russell and Stephen Stills.

In 1971, A&M Records moguls, Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss, signed her to the label. So began one of the most enduring solo careers in all of music.

Rita released more than a dozen

albums in the years to follow, including 1978’s multi-platinum Anytime... Anywhere. Several of her singles would become classics; We’re All Alone’, Higher And Higher and The Way You Do The Things You Do all qualify as career songs. She’s performed with high-profile pals, like George Harrison, Roger Waters, Robbie Robertson and Jimmy Buffett.

In 1973, Rita married singer, songwriter and actor, Kris Kristofferson. During their eight-year union, the pair teamed up for a number of hits and was twice named Country Duo of the Year. Her Love Came For Me appeared on the soundtrack of the movie Splash, All Time High was the theme for the James Bond thriller, Octopussy, and Heart Don’t Fail Me Now (with Lee Greenwood) was used as a recurring theme for the CBS daytime drama, As The World Turns. When the cable music channel VH1 debuted, Rita was also one of its original veejays.

She has just released her autobiography, Delta Lady, an intimate and fascinating story, which is Rita’s personal journey of survival, as well as her professional emergence, as an influential force amid the iconic music and musi-

cians, who built the foundation of the ‘60s/’70s pop/rock universe of American culture.

Rita will be performing at The Capitol on May 5 at 7.30pm. For tickets, please contact The Capitol Box Office.

Are you getting the correct nutrition?

Nutrition is at the forefront of society, but how do you know if you are getting what you need to reach your full potential?

We currently live within a society that has been taken over by diets, quick fixes and a poor understanding of nutrition, my sole purpose as a trainer is to guide my clients into

a better understanding of nutrition and to provide simple steps that will lead to long term success through an enjoyable, balanced lifestyle.

In my eyes, all goals, require commitment and longevity. When looking to improve your lifestyle and achieve long term goals you

must allow time for learning and adaptation. By allowing a good amount of time for changes to your lifestyle you can enjoy the process without depriving yourself, yes a quick fix diet may get you short term success but what happens after? You are at risk of binging, poor health and a lack of focus to

live happy! with

continue.

Start as you mean to go on, with these simple tools you will be on your way to an improved lifestyle.

Goals=Results: If you have a goal, you can then decide on how you are going to achieve your goal, with short term landmarks, leading to the end result. Most people’s goals may take a considerable amount of time, having short term goals that lead to a long term achievement ensures continued success.

Think veggies and fruit: Be bold, be adventurous and be creative.

There are a variety of vegetables and fruits which are readily available to us as a nation, but do we utilize this privilege? It’s human nature to build routines that work for us, but by trying new foods and varying our diets we can enjoy the health benefits that come from eating a mixture of both fruit and veg.

Stay hydrated: Water is essential to life; you cannot survive without it. Dehydration can lead to headaches, a decrease in energy and many health complications. Your body is made up of over 50% water, staying hydrated ensures that you can perform at your best and allows

your body to function properly.

Calories in VS calories out: Depending on your goal, looking at your calorie intake in comparison to your calorie expenditure will enable you to establish if you have the correct balance to achieve your goals. As an example, if you have been struggling to lose weight and can’t work out why, it could be that you are taking on a higher amount of calories than what you are burning off, this can then lead to gaining weight, on the other end of the spectrum, if you are trying to gain muscle, you will need to be eating a calorie surplus to gain weight.

Eat fresh: When possible cook from scratch, ensure a good balance of protein, fats and carbohydrates in each meal you have, mix things up by using different food sources, this keeps you interested and allows you to look forward to your food.

Nutrition should be something we can enjoy and share with others, we should all be able to have things that we like without feeling guilty or negative. The trick is to eat everything in moderation and enjoy your food, it’s that simple.

Whilst we all know that the sun is the number one cause of external skin ageing, it is a little known fact that sugar is the number one cause of internal skin ageing.

This process that contributes to a loss of skin density and volume is called glycation. It is also a process that contributes to the formation of deeper wrinkles, especially on the face, neck and chest.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and gives our skin volume, thickness, density and firmness. Glycation is the process where sugar molecules (from our diet) bind onto collagen fibres, breaking down their strength and structure in the process. Characteristic ‘criss-cross’ lines appear, creating skin thinness, sagging and a quilted effect of wrinkles.

Whilst the daily application and reapplication of a sunscreen is paramount, the trigger of glycation is instigated by the consumption of high GI (or glycaemic index) foods.

These include the obvious culprits such as sugar, soft drinks, confectionary and even fruit juice. Other high GI foods that may come as a surprise includes alcohol, honey and high-carbohydrate foods such as white pasta and bread. Believe it or not, a glass of orange juice can be just as sugary as lemonade or cola!

FREE PERSONAL TRAINER SESSION FOR MAY SIGN UPS

Lost - 1 stone 4lb Inch loss - 9 1/2 inches BMI now under 25 and in normal range Fitness level increased by 65% Chrissie has come to the end of her Bodywise journey, it was over 3 months ago that I we first meet at Bodywise when Chrissie decided she wanted to take on the

challenge of improving her fitness and losing weight and wanted to write articles about her journey and challenges she was to experience.

YOGA for EVERYONE Monday 9:30 – 10:30 | Thursday 18:00 – 19:00 £6 per session | £30 for the block of six

A: 16 Church Street, Warnham, RH12 3QW W: www.thebodywisegym.co.uk E: info@stayfitpersonaltrainer.com T: 01403 271698 | M: 07940 728061

When Chrissie came to Bodywise she was very nervous, she started to tell me about her life, work, three beautiful children, partner and a dog to look after, oh and of course keeping the house in good order, food shopping, paying the bills, list goes on... sound familiar?

I sat down with Chrissie to find out how much time she actually had to commit to her exercise within her busy life style.

We established that her energy levels were low and she was often tired, eating the wrong foods at the wrong time wasn’t helping her energy, weight or motivation, like many of my clients, Chrissie has tried lots of diets and exercise plans, but was never able to stick to them. I felt I could really help her achieve her goals.

From week 1, Chrissie came in twice a week for the first four weeks, we had changed her diet to a detox diet, in which resulted in a loss of 9lb, the detox diets are used to cleanse the system not for weight loss which meant Chrissie had a lot of water retention, so the detox really helped her. She looked so well, brighter skin and more energy! This was great as it helped her to enjoy the exercises that I gave her in the gym; she always tried her best, sometimes through gritted teeth and was strong headed as not to be defeated. I worked a combination of gym and classes as a good way to keep motivated.

Chrissie hit her first target weight within 5 weeks, which was fantastic as she was off on a short winter sun holiday feeling really good and felt she was in much better shape to wear her swimwear without being too conscious of herself. Chrissie has a busy social life, she really enjoys dining out

and a couple of glasses of wine so we knew she was going to enjoy her holiday, I just gave her a few tips on what to try and stick to so she didn’t completely come off track.

I believe when you are taking on such a big challenge you need to be realistic of your goals, you need to account for your lifestyle habits and what you are willing to sacrifice. Chrissie chose to work on a longer term life improvement plan, she always said that she didn’t want to follow to strict a regime as knew herself she would not sustain the results.

Once back off holiday, Chrissie was a little frustrated as her weight was slightly up, life got in the way as it always does, work was really busy and her daughter wasn’t well, followed by the rest of the family.

It is quite normal to feel like quitting the whole thing as for some it can feel like you are back at the starting line. I know this was how she was feeling, although she had done so well. I worked with her through that week and she was soon back on track by setting her targets at home, dog walking, running, riding a bike..

Chrissie then started to see the results again and that was it, she was off, the results each week got better and better, her confidence grew and her self-esteem had increased.

She had found how to turn her gym session from a chore to an enjoyment, everyone journey is different and everyone finds it hard, but you have to keep going and you will find it works, it is that feeling when you look in the mirror with a smile on your face, the feeling you get when someone comments on how good you look, its priceless and that is why we do it.

I have had so much fun with Chrissie, Body wise has now giving Chrissie the knowledge and tools to continue on her journey and we will be here if and when she needs us again.

Chrissie thanks Mitzi I am really pleased with the results; it has been a challenging few months and all in all pretty painless. It has been good fun all the way, I had my moments where I felt like I had let myself down and I can’t thank Mitzi and her team enough for their support. I still have a way to go and will continue at Bodywise in getting to my desired weight, I gave myself a target of 1 year as I am being realistic and I know I am a bit naughty and can’t live without my creature comforts, this is the first time for me that I have been completely honest about my habits and what results I wanted, it also helped Mitzi to get the right regime for me. I do think it is important to accept we are individual and have different lifestyles to work around.

My diet is now really good and I have reduced my alcohol intake, I find exercise part of my regime now and I have learnt that not giving up but allowing for a few errors is the way forward. I feel really confident in knowing that I have Mitzi there for me if I need her help with continuing and aim to keep visiting Bodywise 2-3 times a week. Kurt who runs the bootcamp on a Saturday morning also gets big thumbs up as he has been great fun in running these, everyone has been really friendly and I have met some great people from all levels of fitness, I never ONCE felt intimidated but welcomed here, Thank you Bodywise

Billingshurst exit National KO Cup at first hurdle Sunday April 24 - England & Wales Cricket Board National Club Championship Reigate Priory 239 All Out (44.4 overs) Billingshurst 138 All Out (39.2 overs) Reigate Priory won by 101 runs Cricket Martin Read - Sports Reporter Last season Billingshurst made a habit of batting first and strangling the opposition to win a

number of tight games, but in a change of tactics they put Reigate in – and soon had them 6-1.

Reigate staged a partial recovery, courtesy of former Horsham player Ben Shoare, but at 135-5 and then 136-6 Hurst were in control.

However, while six Reigate batsmen failed to reach double figures, two stood firm: Murtagh making 93 and King 51. By the time they were dismissed a reasonable, but not killer, 239 had been posted, boosted by 35 extras, including 19 wides and three no balls. Andy Barr

took 3-62 and Shane West and David Dunn two each. After Billingshurst reached 55-1 the frailty of their batting, especially without ineligible Dhanushka Mitipoaarchchi, resurfaced, wickets falling at regular intervals with the innings petering out well short of the target. Billinghurst’s next quest is in the first round of the Sussex Gray-Nicholls T20 Cup tomorrow (Saturday) when they entertain Brighton & Hove, whom they beat home and away in last season’s Premier League.

Champions Tunbridge Wells show their strength Horsham battled well against champions Tunbridge Wells

Tunbridge Wells have so far gone unbeaten

Joe and JJ set up huge Horsham cup win Sunday April 24 - England & Wales Cricket Board National Club Championship Horsham 296-1 (45 overs) Sutton 176 All Out (41.1 overs) Horsham won by 120 runs Cricket Martin Read - Sports Reporter

Saturday April 23 - London 2 South East Horsham 17 – 53 Tunbridge Wells Rugby Dave Smith - Sports Editor Tunbridge Wells showed why they are the champions of London 2 South East with a powerful display to defeat a spirited Horsham team.

The Kent side still have the knock out champions of northern England, St Benedicts from Cumbria, to play in the final of the Intermediate Cup at Twickenham to crown an historic unbeaten season.

Alex Maynard opened the scoring for Tunbridge Wells followed by a second from Hayden Pope before Arun Thompson charged down Chaz Spence’s clearance kick to score, converted by Tom Johnson, and after

13 minutes Horsham trailed 12-7.

Charlie Harding added to the Tunbridge Wells score sheet soon after but the spirited Green & Whites fought back again and Kyle Fairs crashed through his man to score.

With both sides on the front foot Campion crossed to score unopposed for the visitors but again Horsham narrowed the deficit when Watts crossed the line for 17 – 24.

Tunbridge Wells showed why they are champions however with two further scores through Tone Vaigafa and Spence to lead 36 – 17 at the break.

The second half saw Tunbridge Wells score three more times through Campion, Spence and Vaigafa to run out worthy winners.

Horsham head coach Nick Stocker said: On the whole our set piece was good and we scored three quality

tries in the first half. The boys held their own against a very good side but the two tries we conceded just before half time were real killers.

We didn’t score any points after 30 minutes because we didn’t get any ball. Tunbridge Wells maintained possession very well and they were better conditioned and more athletic than us. Overall it was disappointing but eight of our league defeats this year have been by less than a score so the challenge for next season is to turn them into wins and our league position would look a lot healthier.”

Horsham: Bell; Watts, Ordidge (Wilde), Johnson J, Nwachukwu; Johnson T (capt), Mills; Harcus (Stone), Fisher, Fairs (Barber); Clarkson, Whiting; Smith, Thompson, Gray.

In his first competitive game for Horsham, Joe Ludlow - previously with Three Bridges - put on a superb 207 for the first wicket batting with new Horsham skipper James Johnson at Gander Green Road.

After being inserted on a surprisingly firm wicket the Horsham openers were initially watchful against their Surrey Championship hosts but asserted control before launching a brutal onslaught, putting the game well beyond Sutton’s reach. Ludlow’s magnificent unbeaten 170 off 154 balls showcased a full array of shots, including reverse sweeps, and featured 18 fours and 3 sixes. He told the

District Post: “The wicket looked good for April but they bowled well at the start, so it was just a question of playing myself in and taking it from there.” After matching Joe, James Johnson richly deserved a century but fell on 97, having facing 92 deliveries with 9 fours and 3 maximums. The exceptionally long boundary on one side with an uphill, sluggish outfield made Horsham’s 296 worth at least 40 more.

Sutton’s reply never really got going – they were always behind the asking rate and lost wickets regularly, Michael Munday taking 3-20 and Chase, Croshaw and Kalsi two apiece. James Johnson said: “Joe is only 19 and is so hungry for runs – we’ve signed a real gem! We’ve got Roffey in the next round on May 8 and will need to be at our best for that.” Sussex big guns Preston Nomads and East Grinstead were both eliminated at the first hurdle. On Sunday Horsham switch formats to entertain Ifield in the first round of the Sussex Gray-Nicholls T20 Cup.

Slinfold ladies spring into action Spring Crystal Bowl winner Brenda O’Brien (left) and Captain Jill Meek

Ladies Golf Dave Smith - Sports Editor Twenty-six women golfers took part in the annual Slinfold Ladies

Spring Meeting, all competing for the prestigious Spring Crystal Bowl.

Presiding over the event, Lady Captain Jill Meek presented prizes

to the winners. In first place was Brenda O’Brien, in second Chris Hagg, in third Sue Puttock, coming fourth was Sheila Tinkler followed

by Evelyn Rock in fifth, and Melanie Roberts in sixth place. Nearest the Pin prizes were awarded to Chris Hagg and Sheila Tinkler for the 7th and 16th holes respectively, and the best front nine score went to Debbie Kirby and the best back nine to Jan Northcott. Also included in the Spring Meeting was a putting competition with the Nip & Tuck Trophy going to the competitor with the fewest number of putts over 18 holes, won by Heather Culshaw with an impressive 31 putts in total.

Lady Captain, Jill Meek commented: “The weather has tested most golfers’ patience, but I am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel and personally can’t wait to get stuck into all the competitions we have organised for the year. I am keen to raise as much money as possible for my chosen charity, The Rainbow Trust.

Even though we have had a slow start to the golfing year due to the weather we have made a good start in terms of raising money, with just over £1,000 already donated. I hope we can build on that over the coming weeks and months.”

Boro clinch a nail-biter to finish fourth Saturday April 23 – London 3 South East Gillingham Anchorians 44 45 Pulborough Rugby Martin Read - Sports Reporter Head Coach Clayton Saunders insisted that Boro would wrap up their season by bagging the fourth in the table spot if they secured a bonus point win against Gillingham.

The team remained on message, delivering the goods - but it was a mighty close run thing!

At Gillingham Boro trailed 2720 at half time but then led by eight points before the hosts went six ahead with two tries before Boro snatched the game - in the last play of the season - with a trademark Frazer Oliphant-Hope conversion after former captain

Richard Nicholls had crossed the line. A relieved Clayton added: “We really should have beaten them by more - we let them back into the game when we ought to have shut it down. But, I’m delighted that we finished fourth!” Earlier tries came from Keith Chenoweth, Ben Miller (2) and Will Scrase. Frazer kicked three conversions and the same number of penalties, with Will converting one of each.

The highlight of Boro’s season was beating league champions Bromley 29-19. Finishing fourth with 11 wins (8 at home) from 22 starts is a highly creditable performance in a league featuring some strong, well-established clubs. If Boro can replicate their home form when they play away then their future is bright, but for now they are rightly savouring the successful season just completed.

Saturday April 23 - SCFL Premier Division Pagham 0 – 1 Horsham Football Dave Smith - Sports Editor The customary end of season Horsham supporter’s fancy dress was given an obvious theme with the last match falling on St George’s Day, and as usual the Horsham faithful turned out in number, with many dressed in patriotic English attire.

Before kick off league Champions Horsham were given a guard of honour by hosts Pagham as a mark of respect for the Hornets dominant and highly successful season.

Horsham had the best of the early exchanges and Pagham’s player

of the season – ‘keeper James Binfield – had to be at his best to prevent Horsham going ahead.

With 20 minutes gone Ashley Jones’ header was stopped on the line by a home defenders arm and with referee Steve Hughes pointing to the spot it was the perfect opportunity for Horsham’s player of the season, Joe Shelley, to beat his Shoreham counterpart and put his side into the lead. However for the second time in succession skipper Shelley failed to convert the kick with his penalty hitting the foot of the post. Horsham did not have to wait long for the opening goal however as on the half hour a long Bradley Lewis ball found Darren Boswell who won the race to the ball with Binfield before toeing the ball into the net.

The second half was a product of the situation both teams were in – Horsham already champions and Pagham comfortably in the top half – and therefore was a typical end of season affair. Horsham were the better side but Binfield showed why he won player of the year with a series of good stops to deny all that Dodd, Pamment and Co. threw at him.

So as the whistle signalled the end of the season Boswell’s first half goal was enough to ensure that Horsham finished as they have done so many times this season with a victory. The English themed support showed their appreciation of their teams’ efforts with joyous applause and another willingly grabbed excuse to celebrate.

The loss saw the Lilywhites beat YM to fifth spot in the final league standings, with Peter Buckland’s side eventually finishing seventh, two places lower than last season’s fifth placed finish.

After a goalless first half, YM

midfielder Anthony Hibbert drilled home a Dave Brown corner from six yards to put the hosts in front midway through the second period.

But the visitors could not have responded better, as just six minutes later they had turned the game on its head. Prolific City striker Jimmy Wild headed home a Dan Watts cross, before YM’s defence switched off, allowing Dan Hegarty to fire under goalkeeper Mark Fox from a tight angle to make it 2-1 sixty seconds later.

Boss Buckland commented: “If ever a game summed up our season that was it. They are the form team in the league who have been winning game after game. Not only did we match them, we bettered them today and it’s one of the rare occasions where you can say the

better team lost. We were in command of the second half I felt. As good as they were, I couldn’t see them scoring, but within the space of a two minute window they had scored twice. I know we didn’t get anything out of the game, but if we had played like that for the whole season, we would have probably finished a lot higher than we have.

It’s all over now. Every single team will start next season as top of the league and we’ll see just how close we can stay to that. We need to add strength in depth. It’s as simple as that.”

YM Team: Fox, D. Sullivan, Burgess, Dugdale, Evans, Donaldson, Hibbert, Wright, Brown, Johnson, Schaaf. Unused subs: Budge, Buchanan, Gathern, Gedling.

In this, their last season together in youth football, Andy Chantrill’s Robins have finally achieved the success that has eluded them over the years.

They finished as champions of HDYFL U16 DivC by remaining unbeaten since Christmas. They clinched the title with a spectacular 4-3 win over rival title contenders East Grinstead. After falling behind 3 times, Robins’ last minute winner was scored

by Jack Roe from close range.

Robins’ other scorers were Gibbs and Barker(2) who finish the season as top scorer with a tally of 21 goals to his name.

Rugby Horsham U14 team won the Sussex Trophy Final with a shoot out victory over Haywards Heath. Strong Horsham defence kept Heath to a 5-0 lead at half time and then in the second half battled back with Sam Adu levelling the scores at 5-5. This is how it remained until the whistle signalled a penalty shoot out.

After some great kicking from both side Horsham eventually won 20 – 14 on penalties Horsham U16 team continued the club success by winning

the U16 Sussex Trophy against Chichester 20 – 0 to cap a good day for Horsham juniors.

School Sport Tanbridge House School has for the first time won the Under 13 National School Team Table Tennis Championships, making them the best U13s school team in the country. Horsham Spinners Table Tennis Club members Charlie Graham-Adams, Zach Hodges & Ollie Michell, as well as Horsham TTC member, Jacob Evans played superbly to come out victorious.

Sophie also represented her tennis club, playing for the Ladies Aegon team at both singles and doubles in the Sussex league winning both her singles and doubles matches.

Horsham crown great season as Sussex Champions Horsham - Sussex Cup winners 2016

Sunday April 24 – Sussex Knockout Cup Final Horsham 4 - 0 Eastbourne Men’s Hockey Martin Read - Sports Reporter Not content with promotion into the South Premier Division 1 league - beating Eastbourne twice in the process – Horsham entertained the large crowd by walloping the same relegated opposition to carry off the Sussex Cup for the first time, rounding off a fantastic campaign in style.

Horsham’s barnstorming end to

their season saw them undefeated in 13 matches this year. In probably his last game for Horsham – for a while at least – league top scorer Jack Dean got Horsham on the score sheet with one of his special solo runs culminating in a trademark strike. A clinical seven pass build up then enabled Richard Blakesley to find the net from close range. After sitting pretty at the break Horsham went further ahead when John Burroughs polished off a well-rehearsed short corner routine. Cirdec Atkinson then put the icing on the cake for Horsham to bury Eastbourne. Team Man-

ager Al Campbell told the District Post: “Horsham’s success this season has come from our all round strength: apart from scoring more goals than any other team in the league, the defence has routinely negated the opposition. In this final keeper Andy Isaacs was only called upon to make one save.

We’ll celebrate now but are already developing our strategy for next season, initially concentrating on suitable replacements for Jack Dean and Noah Chinn as they’re heading off to university.”

Player Coach Dominick Male added: “The players have given everything week after week and to be crowned Sussex Champions on finals day is a fitting end to our terrific season!”

Sussex Hockey officials nominated Freddie Campbell Man of the Final for marshalling the midfield with game-changing tackles, passes and aerials.

Club Chairman Nick Evans said: “On top of what we’ve already achieved this season we’ve figured in four finals this weekend, winning three of them - in addition to the Men’s 1s, the U14s and U21s won both of theirs. The 2nds scored 5 goals but couldn’t quite make it, but it’s been an amazing weekend!”

Horsham Ladies 1s play their Sussex Cup final on May 7 with a tough challenge against East Grinstead.

Another big field is expected for the 2016 Horsham 10k

Football Dave Smith - Sports Editor Saturday April 23 - SCFL Premier Division Shoreham 1 - 3 Broadbridge Heath

Athletics Martin Read - Sports Reporter This year’s Horsham 10K Road Race is on Sunday May 15, again starting and finishing at Horsham Rugby Club.

Organising the race for the fourth time, Paul Aylett tells the District Post: “This is a popular event and entries are up on the same time last year. It’s a beautiful course - multi-terrain with two laps, mainly on quiet open roads, including country lanes and a woodland bridleway

stretch. There is also a traffic free fun run of about 1200 metres, 10.15 start, around the rugby pitch for under 16 year olds.” The main race, in the Sussex Grand Prix Series, sets off at 11am and prizes are awarded to winners in the various categories. Every runner in both events will be chip timed and given a memento marking their achievement.

The runs are once again organised by Horsham Joggers and Lions International, marshalled by around 80 volunteers, with profits

Section at the club was only formed four years ago and the big win was all the more remarkable because they trailed 7-15 at half time.

The second half was a different story – the forwards, led by Jordan Hopkins, pressurised Worcester into too many mistakes which were punished with five Boro tries.”

Boro’s number 10, Jessie Breach, who has already played for England U20 Ladies and England U18’s Sevens, scored 5 tries and Izzy Mayhew another, while Sara Cornforth converted three.

donated to local charities. Last year Toby Lambert of Winchester AC set a new 10K course record of 31minutes 45 seconds but the race is open to and enjoyed by runners of all abilities.

Online entries can be made on www.horshamjoggers.co.uk or www.horshamlions.freeuk.com , Paul Aylett adding: “Come and join us for a great family experience.

We have a limit of 500 for the main race so enter early - it’s cheaper than enrolling on the day!”

Heath’s Andy Waddingham was given a guard of honour prior to kick off in recognition of his 20 years service to the club.

He made his debut aged 6 when he turned out for Heath Juniors and like so many Heath players has made his way up through the years and ranks.

Andy is off teaching in Vietnam for 2 years and will be sorely missed by the club.

Heath got off to a good start in the last match of a very good season for the club, with Piers McDermott forcing home ‘keeper Dan Hutchins into a good save. Hutchins could do very little however when Stuart Chester played a one two with Tiago Andrade before lashing a shot into the net. Heath doubled their advantage on 20 minutes when, after Scott Weller

was brought down in the area, Jake Holmes gave Hutchins no chance with the penalty. Heath were in total command and the match was effectively over 5 minutes before the break when after Andrade had his shot saved Holmes reacted quickest to tap in for his second and Heath’s third.

Heath continued to dominate in the second half and without the heroics of Hutchins in the Shoreham goal Heath could have been 6 or 7 up. With 10 minutes remaining Shoreham got a consolation goal through Daniel Skett but Heath very comfortably saw out the 90 minutes.

The referee’s final whistle signalled an end to another very good season for the Bears who equalled last season’s highest ever finish of 9th but won more games, scored more goals, had a better goal difference and won more points, 63 compared to last year’s total of 52.

Heath Team: M.Chester, A. Wicking (Findlay 60), Robinson, Flack, Howard, S.Chester, Waddingham (Ozga 80), Weller, Andrade, Holmes (Mutungi 70).
