Proposed move for Horsham Fire Service & Police Station martin read

Reporter

Local residents are to have the opportunity to comment on proposals to relocate Horsham Fire Station at a new purpose built facility to be shared with the police and, possibly the ambulance service at an already publicly owned site at Highwood, at the junction of the A24 and A264 near Broadbridge Heath. The proposal is part of the well-established One Public Estate programme delivered in partnership by the Local Government Association and the Office of Government Property via the Cabinet Office. The programme was launched in 2013 with just 12 areas but today works in conjunction with more than 300 councils on projects transforming local communities and public services right across the country, the plan being to maximise the use of public land improving public services, providing one million new homes and further developing transport

infrastructure. In Sussex, the One Public Estate programme already includes projects at Crawley across a number of sites, including the Town Hall and County Buildings, at Burgess Hill – where a new tri-service blue light centre, housing and commercial space is planned – and at Chichester, where the redevelopment of a number of sites is in prospect. Other plans are also being developed at Littlehampton, Shoreham and Worthing. Long standing local residents will recall the previous separate arrangements for public services, including premises within the confines of Horsham Park (Fire Service) and the old Police Station in Barttelot Road in the town. When those sites were vacated the opportunity was taken to bring the services together in Hurst Road. The plan is now to have the blue light emergency services working even more collaboratively with the creation of the best possible, fit for the future arrangements, incorporating outstanding training facilities not currently available locally, with a public facing front counter for the police, an on call Fire Service, and,

Huge thankyou to our contributors: Horsham Rocks, Clive Turner & Tim Hewlett

Horsham District Council has appointed Barbara Childs to the new position of Director of Place. The role of Director of Place was created to broaden the previous role of Director of Planning following Chris Lyon’s departure, and reflects the importance of place shaping, driving economic growth and encouraging partner-

ship working. Barbara, currently Head of Strategic Planning at the Council, has a wealth of experience in planning and economic development and played a key role in the preparation of Horsham’s Local Plan. Glen Chipp, Chief Executive, said: “I am delighted that Barbara has accepted the role Director of Place. She was an outstanding candidate and has a wealth of experience which will be of great benefit to the Council and the District.” Commenting on her appointment, Barbara said: “The District is under a lot of pressure to grow and I see this role as an opportunity to influence how that growth happens, so that we maintain our special environment and provide places where people want to live, work, and visit. It’s about creating extraordinary places, whilst protecting what we value about the environment.”

Minerals Local Plan for West Sussex West Sussex County Council and the South Downs National Park Authority are pleased to announce the adoption of the West Sussex Joint Minerals Local Plan by both authorities. The document sets out a vision and ‘strategic objectives’ to 2033 and will be used as the basis for all planning decisions relating to minerals development in the county. Minerals such as sand, gravel, clay, chalk and stone are essential to our economy and way of life. They provide the raw materials that are used to construct the buildings and infrastructure (such as roads) that we use in our daily lives. The Plan was examined by an independent planning inspector, who deemed it to be sound, provided that some modifications were made to clarify the intentions of the Plan and how its policies work. Bob Lanzer, the County Council’s Cabinet Member for Highways and Infrastructure, said: “The adoption of this Plan is the culmination of extensive evidence gathering, stakeholder and public engagement, and partnership working between the county council and the National Park Authority over a number of years. “I am delighted that we now have an up-to-date Plan that will ensure that minerals development only takes place to meet identified needs and in a way that ensures that the environment and communities of West Sussex are protected.” Margaret Paren, Chair of the South Downs National Park Authority, said: “National Parks have the highest status of protection in relation to landscape and scenic beauty and we have worked in close partnership with West Sussex County Council over a number of years to develop a Plan with up-to-date policies that will help safeguard the special landscapes, wildlife and communities of this part of the South Downs National Park.” The West Sussex Joint Minerals Local Plan is now part of the statutory Development Plan for West Sussex (both inside and outside of the National Park) and includes use-specific and general policies. It allocates a single site for clay extraction, an extension to the

West Hoathly Brickworks site, to ensure there are sufficient supplies of raw materials to continue production at the brickworks to meet the demands of the construction industry. The Authorities have now begun work to review the need and availability of soft sand in the Plan Area, as required by Policy M2. The adopted Joint Minerals Local Plan, the Adoption Statement, and the Sustainability Appraisal are available for viewing on www.westsussex.gov.uk/mwdf and are being made available at the main deposit point locations and opening times listed below. • West Sussex County Council, County Hall, West Street, Chichester, PO19 1RQ (Mon-Thurs 8:30am5:00pm; Fri 8:30am-4:30pm) • South Downs Centre, North Street, Midhurst, GU29 9DH (MonThurs 9am-5pm; Fri 9am-4:30pm) • Adur and Worthing Councils, The Shoreham Centre, Pond Road, Shoreham-by-Sea, BN43 5WU (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm) • Adur and Worthing Councils, Portland House, 44 Richmond Road, Worthing, BN11 1HS (Mon-Fri 9:00am-5:00pm) • Arun District Council Reception, Planning Department Reception, Arun Civic Centre, Maltravers Road, Littlehampton, BN17 5LF (MonThurs 8:45am-5:15pm; Fri 8:45am4:45pm) • Chichester District Council Reception, East Pallant House, 1 East Pallant, Chichester, PO19 1TY (Mon-Thurs 8:45am-5:10pm; Fri 8:45am-5pm) • Crawley Borough Council Reception, Town Hall, The Boulevard, Crawley, RH10 1UZ (Mon-Fri 8:30am-5pm) • Horsham District Council and West Sussex County Council Reception, Parkside, Chart Way, Horsham, RH12 1RL (Mon-Fri 9:00am5:00pm) • Mid Sussex District Council Reception, Oaklands, Oaklands Road, Haywards Heath, RH16 1SS (Mon-Thurs 8:45am-5:15pm; Fri 8:45am-4:15pm) For further information, please contact Planning Services on 01243 642118 or mwdf@westsussex.gov. uk

Next steps for Horsham’s Novartis site announced at community stakeholder event

The latest proposals for the former Novartis site in Horsham were recently presented at a community stakeholder event, attended by representatives from Horsham District Council, parish councils, and local residents. Wider public consultation on the masterplan for the site is due to start in September, so this event was a chance for West Sussex County Council to present initial proposals and outline next steps for this exciting project. West Sussex County Council

purchased the site in December 2016, and feasibility and design work has been taking place to progress proposals for a mixed use, business and residential development to meet local needs. Louise Goldsmith, Leader of the council, said: “Our main driver when purchasing the site was to build on its long-established position as a major employment centre. This development gives us a terrific opportunity to provide a mixture of much needed, highquality commercial and residential space on a prime Horsham

site, whilst retaining the Art Deco building which is part of the site’s heritage. “The feedback from attendees at our kick-off briefing this week was invaluable and will be taken on board as we move to the wider public consultation stage in the autumn.” The emerging masterplan sets out the ambition for the site. Approximately two-thirds of the site is currently earmarked for commercial development to create and support higher-value employment. The remaining third is for residential development, which will include affordable housing. The 1930s, Art Deco building and an avenue of trees will be retained. The forthcoming public consultation will be promoted widely and will include two public events. The date and location of the first public event will be announced shortly. Further information on the project will be added to the Business West Sussex website: www.businesswestsussex.co.uk It is expected that an outline planning application will be submitted to Horsham District Council by the end of this year. Work on the site is not expected to begin before 2021 and could take around five years to complete.

Horsham District first in the county to reach National Recycling Target Following the introduction of fortnightly residual household waste collections, Horsham District Council has now seen provisional statistics for recycling exceed 50%. This makes Horsham the first collection authority in West Sussex to reach the target of 50% recycling of domestic waste – a target that the whole county is required to meet by 2020, and which Horsham has now reached two years ahead of the target date. The new bin collection service introduced recycling collections one week, and household waste being collected the same day the following week, instead of household waste being collected every week, back in February this year. The new service was implemented in response to increased national recycling targets, as well as the need to find a more cost effective way of delivering the service, given cuts in funding from central Government. Cabinet Member for Waste, Recycling and Cleansing, Cllr Philip Circus, said: “I am proud of what we have achieved, which has fulfilled all our hopes and expectations. “Our consultants estimated

that, based on the experience of other local authorities, we would be likely to increase our recycling figures from 44%,by somewhere between 6% and 9%. It is too early to tell where the figures will settle down but clearly, on the basis of the May, June and July figures we have surpassed the 50% figure and we may find our figures settle down at 54% or 55% which would be a 10% increase in our recycling rate. “My thanks go to our officers who have done a magnificent job in organising and seeing through the changes and to the public who have risen to the challenge to increase their recycling.’ The Council continues to ask all residents to keep thinking about how they might be able to reduce, reuse or recycle their household waste even more. For advice and tips including a useful A to Z list of what can and can’t be recycled, visit our online pages at https://www. horsham.gov.uk/bins/thinkbeforeyouthrow Those wishing to subscribe to the garden waste collection service should do so online at https://www.horsham.gov.uk/ bins/garden-waste or telephone 01403 733144.

Eaton’s Bridge: New and Improved The first public bridge in West Sussex made using a special fibreglass material is now open for walkers to enjoy. The new Eaton’s Bridge, made with Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP), spans the River Adur between Ashurst and Henfield. It replaces the steel and timber structure that was closed in the interests of public safety in November 2014. This had suffered rotting to significant parts of the cross-timbers that supported the deck. FRP is lighter than alternative building materials, which meant the new bridge could be constructed off-site and a small crane used to lift it into position. Ongoing costs are far cheaper, too, as there is no need for re-painting. Deborah Urquhart, county council Cabinet Member for the Environment, said: “This replacement bridge has a single span between the riverbanks, without the need for two piers in the channel as with the previous structure. “FRP is a fairly new technology that has the advantage of needing less maintenance and is also extremely lightweight

compared to other, traditional forms of construction, such as steel. These were important considerations given the remote countryside location and the logistics of getting the bridge into position, which required the use of a crane. “I would like to thank walkers for their patience as they were unable to cross the river at this point since the end of 2014. Now, with the new footbridge open, I hope they can enjoy the crossing again in this beautiful part of the county.” Bob Lanzer, Cabinet Member for Highways and Infrastructure, said: “This is the first, public highway, FRP bridge in West Sussex and we hope walkers will enjoy it for many years. “We are grateful to landowners on both sides of the river for their support during the construction works.” The bridge can be found by following the public footpath which starts near Ashurst Village Hall, on the B2135. People can also walk to it on footpaths off West End Lane, Henfield. The replacement bridge project cost a total of about £200,000.

Pennthorpe School get the buzz

A West Sussex school has been declared the winner in an inaugural competition to encourage children to play music together in start-up music groups. The ‘Pennthorpe pBuzzers’ – from Pennthorpe School, Rudgwick, West Sussex – have been declared the winners in Brass Band England’s ‘Create a Buzz!’ competition held in conjunction with Warwick Music Group – developers of the award-winning pBuzz. The brightly coloured pBuzz has been specially designed for children’s small hands and is aimed at being the fun first step in taking children on what, hopefully, will become a life-long passion for music and brass instruments. Costing less than £20 pBuzz is an affordable and playful product that aids a child’s sensory and fine motor skills, encour-

ages self-expression, stimulates imagination and creativity, builds confidence – and nurtures their natural music talents. The ‘Create a Buzz’ competition involved schools, music education hubs and youth music organisations from across the UK, with five groups being shortlisted to take part. Pennthorpe faced stiff competition from other finalists from Oldham, Southampton, Trafford and Enfield. Each was asked to submit a five minute video of their musical journey, featuring a performance of composer Jonathan Bates’ specially commissioned piece, ‘Create a Buzz’ – a work that immediately became a huge hit with those who played it. Jonathan, who sat on the judging panel with staff from Brass Band England and Warwick Music

Group, said: “After viewing all of the entries, Pennthorpe School was my favourite. I feel the outreach in the community and wide range of performance opportunities, coupled with inventive filming, made them stand out. “It was so refreshing to see such enthusiasm and dedication across all the entries, with such a wide range of different approaches taken and so many young people engaged.” Pennthorpe will receive a set of ten pCornets and pBones – both plastic instruments developed by Warwick Music Group that have achieved worldwide recognition and sales – to support the next step of their musical development. They will also be invited to perform on the main stage of the 2019 National Youth Brass Band Championships of Great Britain in March. Each finalist received a classset of free instruments to keep and to work with over a six month period – using the free resources available on the pBuzz website. Linda Cole, Pennthorpe’s Director of Music, said: ‘The children had such a wonderful experience learning to play their pBuzzes and we will definitely be using them regularly in our schemes of work going forward. It’s been the highlight of the year and the children have had such fun.’.

Collyer’s students premier new film Gifted Collyer’s students Tom Carter and Phil Davis have premiered their new film: Unforgettable, to rave reviews at the Capitol Theatre in Horsham. Unforgettable is a short film created by the students and is a story about two desperate people, of very different backgrounds, coming together at difficult stages of their lives. Tom Carter explained: “We received the first draft of the script from Phil Davis back in early 2017. We then decided to hold auditions for our main actors in August 2017 after meeting with our producer, Jacob Thomas.

Around this time we decided we would need some money to make it all happen, so started an indiegogo crowd funding page. “In the end, Jacob Thomas and Paul Mayer were our producers. Phil Davis wrote the original screenplay for us to film and Ed Waller composed the soundtrack.” Tom and Freddie have been friends since the age 4, and as their talents have blossomed, they have combined to become the perfect creative team, as Freddie is an aspiring actor/director and Tom is keen to work in cinematography.

County council pledges to boost community working

A new pledge has been made to boost community working in West Sussex. The county has more than 4,000 voluntary and community sector groups and organisations, ranging from small village community interest groups to members of national charities. West Sussex County Council has developed a new set of ‘Partnership Principles’ that sets out and renews its commitment to working in partnership with the groups. These include pledging that the council is community focussed in all its work and works in collaboration with groups. The principles have been developed with representatives from the voluntary and community sector. Debbie Kennard, Cabinet Member for Safer, Stronger Communities, said: “I’m really proud of our voluntary and community sector. “Whether a large or a small group, they all have an important and valuable role to play in helping to create and develop community engagement and resilience, and add to the vibrant diversity of our county.” Louise Goldsmith, Leader of West Sussex County Council, added: “We work alongside many partners to help us deliver county council projects across our wonderful county. I am delighted that we can make

this commitment to keep supporting our residents by working in active partnership with the voluntary and community sector.” The new principles are in addition to a commitment made by the county council and other partners in 2012, called the West Sussex Compact, to work in partnership and collaboration towards common aims and objectives. Sue Livett, Managing Director of the Aldingbourne Trust, Rebecca Smicle, CEO of Independent Lives, Nik Demetriades, CEO of 4Sight Vision Support & Cheryl Berry, Community Partnerships Lead – Healthwatch West Sussex, part of Supporting Community Based Solutions, a group of voluntary organisations that has helped shaped the principles, said: “Voluntary & community groups are connected to thousands of West Sussex citizens. We welcome the commitment West Sussex County Council are making to work more closely with us, and look forward to collaborative approaches to improve people’s lives”.

Tom added: “I am considering film school, as I’m interested in the technical side of filmmaking (special effects, editing, and cinematography); I’m also considering computer science at university, as this relates to my interest in the technical side of things.” The creative duo looked at a number of scripts and Phil Davis’ “Unforgettable” stood out from the rest. After they read through it on the school bus, they realised they had to create something on a big scale to do it justice, as they felt the story had a relevant and powerful message that unites people of all kinds.

Grant to preserve unique art therapy archive

West Sussex Record Office and Outside In have been awarded a grant from the Wellcome Trust of £46,023 to preserve an archive which offers a rare insight into the use of art therapy as a form of treatment. Outside In is a charity which supports artists who find it difficult to access the art world for reasons including health, disability, isolation or social circumstance. The Vawdrey Archive comprises approximately 194 paintings produced by patients in art therapy sessions run by Dr Brian Vawdrey between 1951 to 1971 and a copy of Vawdrey’s illustrated thesis, ‘Art in Analysis’. The archive is an unusual record of early art therapy work which provides an important insight into the therapeutic process and has the potential to offer a unique perspective on the development of art therapy as a discipline.

This funding will enable the Record Office, in partnership with Outside In, to catalogue, preserve, and digitise this archive, eventually making the catalogue and digitised images available online. A series of consultation sessions involving Outside In artists who have had lived experience of mental health issues will enhance and enrich the catalogue – a new and innovative way of approaching medical and hospital archives. Debbie Kennard, West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Safer, Stronger Communities, said: “Our Record Office does an amazing job when it comes to preserving and archiving unique collections such as these.” Wendy Walker, County Archivist at West Sussex Record Office, said: “This funding will enable us to preserve a unique archive that will provide a fascinating insight into the role of art therapy at a critical stage in the understanding of mental health in the 1950s and

1960s. “I am delighted that we will be able to explore this archive with Outside In, contemporary artists, academic colleagues and health care professionals and develop innovative ways to make it accessible to new audiences today. “We are extremely grateful to the Wellcome Trust for all of their support in making this happen”. Marc Steene, Director of Outside In, said: “Outside In is extremely excited to be working with the West Sussex Record Office on this highly innovative project. “Enabling Outside In artists, with a lived experience of mental health issues, to be given the opportunity to guide and be consulted in the archiving of this incredibly fragile and rare collection of patient art work will provide important learning for all. “We are also delighted to continue our relationship with the Wellcome Trust and thank them for their support with this project.”

Much needed Syringe Driver presented to Midhurst! The Billingshurst Macmillan Support Group have been fundraising for the Midhurst Macmillan Specialist Palliative Care Service for many years now. Earlier in the year, some members of the group visited the staff at the Midhurst centre to let them know the amazing sum of £63,796 that they had raised for them in 2017. However, at this meeting, Terri, Chair of the Group, decided that it would nice to raise funds for a specific item for the centre, and it was easily decided by Jo Stuttaford (Macmillan Joint Service Leader) that a much needed Syringe Driver would be an amazing gift. So the group set about informing all they met about this specific fund and that £1000 would be needed to purchase a new Syringe Driver. This was mentioned at local events, such as village markets and film nights. Other donations came in from Fowlers and the Wednesday Club in Billingshurst, but the largest donation was from Stephen Foster, who made collections at various David Bowie tribute concerts where he performed, raising

an amazing £230. The money was raised within just two months, thanks to the generosity of the people from the Billingshurst and Pulborough areas,

We would like to thank the Billingshurst Team so much for raising the money the Syringe Driver was ordered and delivered. On Tuesday 31 July, members of the group travelled over to the Midhurst Centre to make the presentation. Terri said that the welcome they received was amazing, all the staff at the Midhurst Centre were so happy. Jo from the Centre said: “We would like to thank the Bill-

ingshurst Team so much for raising the money, which has enabled them to purchase the Syringe Driver for us. This an essential piece of very expensive equipment that enables patients to receive a constant source of drugs for pain and symptom control when they are unable to take medication by mouth”.

Sun lovers urged to protect themselves from harm People living and visiting Horsham and Mid Sussex are being urged to protect themselves against the sun this summer to reduce the risk of skin cancer. Figures show that Horsham and Mid Sussex is significantly above the national average for incidents of malignant melanoma*, with 35.8 cases per 100,000 people, higher than the national average of 23.3 per 100,000. NHS Horsham and Mid Sussex Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) recommends following these tips to stay safe in the sun: Use at least factor 15 sunscreen and reapply every few hours Spend time in the shade between 11am and 3pm Avoid getting sunburn Cover up with suitable clothing and sunglasses Take extra care with children Mild sunburn can usually be treated at home to help relieve you symptoms until your skin heals, without the need to visit a GP. The NHS recommends having a cold bath or shower to cool down the skin, or you can sponge your skin with cold water or hold a cold

flannel against it. Drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration, and apply soothing lotions to moisturise the skin. Dr Minesh Patel, Clinical Chair at NHS Horsham and Mid Sussex CCG, said: “We’re urging residents and visitors to the area to be aware of the dangers of being in the sun without protection. “Make sure you use sunscreen which is at least factor 15 with good UV-A protection but don’t just rely on this alone for protection, wear suitable clothing and spend time in the shade when the sun is at its hottest.” Anyone who feels unwell or concerned about their sunburn, particularly if you’re burnt over a large area or have any of the more severe symptoms (such as blistering or swelling of the skin) should call NHS 111, visit their GP or go to the Horsham Minor Injuries Unit at Horsham Hospital. *Figures for malignant melanoma are from www.ncin.org.uk/ skin/ccg/atlas.html and show incidences of malignant melanoma in the CCG area from 2011-2013.

Revelation wins Gold in Strong Bitter category

Dark Star Brewing Company, the Sussex based craft brewer, is delighted to announce that Revelation was awarded Gold in the Strong Bitter category in the Champion Beer of Britain competition at this year’s Great

British Beer Festival. Dark Star released Revelation in 2010 and, since then, it has won two other regional CAMRA awards prior to this, its first national award. Revelation is a 5.7% ABV dry-hopped cask ale, brewed with

five hop varieties: Columbus, Chinook, Cascade, Crystal, and Warrior. James Cuthbertson, Managing Director of Dark Star, said: “I’m really chuffed about this award. It’s great when one of our beers gets this type of national recognition and the news comes at a really exciting time for the business. We’re about to break ground on a new Barrel Aging room and install a canning line, both of which mark serious investment for the brewery and will help keep us at the forefront of the national craft beer scene. “It’s been well published that we’ve been struggling with capacity over the past two years, but with additional investment and better efficiency, we are now able to grow our capacity and satisfy the demand we have for our beers across Sussex and beyond. With that in mind, this award couldn’t have come at a better time for us.”

Fay continues: “The great thing about having Nass as a mentor is that he helped me to sort out my priorities and sharpened my focus in a way that was much more effective than trying to do it all on my own. “He supported and advised me until I could get into a position where I could handle things alone. The fact he’s such a nice guy is just the icing on top.” The partnership between Business Pulse and Brighton Cakes is just the latest success story for Nass, who has made a career developing solutions and enhancing companies across the country. “I’m delighted to see Fay flourish,” Nass says. “Like many entrepreneurs, she works incredibly hard and has an amazing product that people would want to buy. Business consultancy is about providing that all-important spark. Once you light the flame and receive some guidance, your business can soar to new heights. I have no doubt that Brighton Cakes will be satisfying the city’s sweet tooth for years to come.”

The Fair, organised by Horsham District Council in partnership with The District Post, Horsham Jobcentre Plus and The College of Richard Collyer, is targeted at those seeking a job, thinking of changing their existing one or considering on-the-job training through an apprenticeship to meet a wide range of employers eager to recruit and grow their organisations. The event is free to visitors and anyone can attend. Cabinet Member for the Local Economy Cllr Gordon Lindsay com-

mented: “Supporting local employers to find the right candidates for their workforce and facilitating appropriate training opportunities for local people is vital to our work as a council in developing the local economy. “I would urge as many recruiting employers and training providers as possible to contact us to reserve a stand at our Jobs and Skills Fair this year – its popularity is growing and spaces are now limited.“ Once again, there will be workshops designed to help people improve their employability skills and job prospects. Additionally employers will have the opportunity to sit down with prospective employees in the café to discuss opportunities. In the previous three years the event has been staged, 110 employers have offered over 1300 opportunities between them and about a third of these have been filled as a direct result of the day, with over 1400 local people attending. For more information and to apply for a stand on the day, visit the Council website https://www. horsham.gov.uk/jobs-and-careers/ employment-and-skills/horshamdistrict-jobs-and-skills-fair or contact Leigh Chambers at leigh. chambers@horsham.gov.uk

Virginia McKenna OBE inspires audience at Highwood Mill Visitors to a prestigious new retirement development were left truly inspired after hearing Virginia McKenna OBE speak about her fascinating work as an actress and wildlife campaigner. The audience at Highwood Mill, Horsham, heard Virginia talk about her career in the film industry, and the celebrities she has worked with. Virginia also discussed how she got involved as a wildlife campaigner, and the most recent rescue and release of King, a one-yearold lion cub. She then concluded her talk with a Q & A session and a poetry reading from her book ‘Tonight the Moon is Red’. Virginia – who is also the cofounder of the charity Born Free – was the first celebrity speaker in the Highwood Mill series of ‘Audience with’ events, where people can hear first-hand accounts from three national treasures. The next event, on Tuesday 28 August, will feature author and humanitarian campaigner, Terry Waite CBE, who will talk about some of the incredible moments of his life so far. The former assistant for Anglican Communion Affairs, Terry was kidnapped and held captive for nearly five years in Lebanon. Concluding the series, television actor, director and writer Christopher Timothy takes centre stage on Monday 10 September. Christopher is best known for his roles as James Herriot in All Creatures Great and Small, and Mac McGuire in daytime soap Doctors.

Daniel brings a wealth of experience to his new role, having spent eleven years in estate agency sales including the last five years with Henry Adams in their Haslemere and Petersfield offices.

from residential, commercial and new homes, through to agricultural, surveying and planning advice. “Henry Adams has built up such a good name in Billingshurst so it’s great to be part of such a strong team here. We are handling property right across the board from attractive retirement apartments near the heart of the village to charming country cottages set in several of acres in nearby countryside, and almost every type of home in between. “With the station, shops, leisure centre, a thriving community, and such a great secondary school, The Weald, right here on the doorstep, Billingshurst has it all.” Head of Residential Sales at Henry Adams LLP, Gareth Overton, added: “Daniel has always shown an incredible capacity for hard work and a great ability to get on with people. He’s very approachable and is genuinely looking to help people move home as smoothly as possible. “Equally Daniel takes a very professional approach to selling

property effectively and I’ve no doubt he will go from strength to strength in his new role in Billingshurst.” For a free market valuation on your Billingshurst property, contact Daniel Porter on 01403 782991 or billingshurst@henryadams. co.uk, or simply by visiting Henry Adams’s Billingshurst office in the High Street or check out their properties for sales or letting at henryadams.co.uk.

Roffey win nailbiter to go through to National Semi Sunday August 12 England & Wales Cricket Board National Club Championship National Stage – Quarter Final Roffey won by 5 wickets Brentwood 166-6 off 50 overs – Roffey 169-5 (39.3 overs) Cricket Martin Read - Sports Reporter Last Sunday Roffey visited the Old County Ground at Brentwood, a venue previously used for County Championship matches by Essex, inserting the hosts after winning the toss. Brentwood made steady, if unspectacular progress and even from the sound platform of 137-3 could not go on to post a killer target, Guy Balmford top scoring with 66 from 112 balls, with just four boundaries. A late flurry from Tom Oakley took Brentwood’s total to 166 from their allotted 40 overs, seven Roffey bowlers retaining control with the wickets

spread between five of them. Usman Khan went early, but at 91-2 Roffey were well placed with 36 from Jibran Khan, but it was Rohit Jagota who got Roffey home with an unbroken sixth wicket partnership of 55 with Josh Fleming (24 not out) after Roffey had been in trouble at 114-5. Jagota’s unbeaten 60 came off 71 balls and he told the District Post: “This was a low scoring, really tight game. We were lucky with the weather – we had just one short interruption. The pitch looked OK, but it was slow and the boundaries were massive, so there weren’t too many fours – 180 would have been a very good score. At the end of the Brentwood innings we said that we needed one telling partnership and that won it for us in the end.” Coach Simon Fearnley added: “Brentwood – third in the Essex Premiership – are a good side and their bowling attack was ideal for the dry pace-off wicket. We contained them well,

but it was not an easy chase – it was a gripping nailbiter! All the time Rohit was in we had a great chance of winning – his was an exceptional innings under pressure. Jibran batted well, too, and let’s not underestimate Josh’s priceless cameo just when it really mattered.” Brentwood players and officials paid tribute to Roffey’s large travelling contingent of supporters, wishing Roffey well in the remainder of the tournament. Roffey skipper Matt Davies said: “This was a great win for us – we’re through to the National semi final - Stanmore here we come!” Subject to confirmation the trip to Middlesex and England’s Angus Fraser’s former club is expected to be on Sunday September 2nd, in between Roffey’s visit to Penzance in the Quarter Final of the National Vitality CLUB T20 and their appearance in the Sussex Cup Final at Hove on Sunday September 9th.

Comfortable win at Hastings Saturday August 11 – Sussex Premier League Hastings & St Leonards Priory 212-8 (50 overs) Roffey 214-3 (41.1) Roffey won by 7 wickets – Roffey 28 points – Hastings 9 Cricket Martin Read - Sports Reporter Hastings elected to bat at their Horntye Park ground, getting off to a stuttering start with Alex Collins capturing the important wickets of Joe Billings – for a duck – and Harry Finch. Seven Hastings batsmen got good starts but Roffey’s bowling contingent kept them in check as wickets fell regularly, Collins finishing with 3-52 and Luke Barnard 2-31. When Roffey’s turn came to bat they lost Ben Manenti early, but a 138 run second wicket stand between Jibran Khan (55) and Theo Rivers (who finished on 102 not out) put them in a very strong position, enabling them to win with the better part of nine overs still in the bank. Coach Simon Fearnley told the District Post: “Hastings got about 30 more than they should have done because of a couple of dropped catches and some rather ragged ground fielding, but it had no effect on

the outcome – it was a relatively straight forward win. We were beaten at Hastings last year, so there was a determination to put that right. Luke Barnard bowled well again and it was great to see further good performances from two players who have worked so hard to improve their game – Alex Collins has made significant progress, bowling well at the top of the order – and at the death, getting big wickets, as he did again today. And, Theo Rivers is having a great season, too. Watching him bat is very easy on the eye and he’s fulfilling his promise by converting thirties and forties into big scores. Following his maiden hundred earlier in the season he has now got three tons, and he’s developed into a very useful wicket taking spin bowler, too, giving us very handy options.” This Saturday Roffey return home to play fourth-placed Brighton and Hove, whom they bowled out for 145 to win easily at the coast in June. Roffey remain top with 355 points, Eastbourne are second with 342. The following Saturday (25th) Roffey have a crunch match at Eastbourne, then, for the last league game of the season – on September 1st - they welcome third-placed Horsham.

Lewis Shivnarain – a rising star at Roffey Cricket Club Cricket Martin Read - Sports Reporter Consistent young Roffey batsman Lewis Shivnarain celebrated great success at Sussex’s Under 12 Festival – personally and for his team. Captain Lewis tuned up with 45 on the Monday before really getting into his stride with 100 at Burgess Hill next day. On the Wednesday, back at Roffey against East Grinstead, he retired on 112 not out to give others the opportunity to bat. Unsurprisingly, Lewis is already on Sussex’s radar in their youth development programme, telling the District Post: “At the Festival I felt re-

Cricket Martin Read - Sports Reporter Horsham CC entered the annual Sussex Junior Cricket Festival and were placed in the Bowl competition with 16 other teams from the top clubs in the county, taking part in four matches in a longer 70 over format. During the cricket week Horsham managed a winning draw against Cuckfield followed by victories over Ansty, Middleton and Chichester taking them to the top of the league stage. The highlights were Rahul Tangirala’s fantastic first century against Middleton and Liam Hughes’ five wickets for five runs - all clean bowled - against Chichester. The top two teams went through to the final and as Cuckfield also won their three other matches Horsham played them in a re-match. Cuckfield won

the toss and batted first, Horsham getting an early breakthrough with Liam Hughes removing Cuckfield’s very talented Henry Rogers. This brought in Wilf Pickard who proceeded to play a superb innings keeping the score ticking over with some excellent drives and pulls. Horsham kept the wickets falling at the other end with Alfred Haines taking 4 for 20. The Horsham team backed up their bowlers well with some sharp fielding particularly from wicket keeper Ruben Weide. Pickard managed to get Cuckfield to 148 before he was last man out for 80 after a useful partnership with their no11. The pitch had proved lively at times when Horsham bowled and Cuckfield’s Henry Rogers came firing in with some short pitched deliveries, but Horsham’s opening batsmen handled the situation very well, getting to 39 before Maxwell Bartlett edged one behind

bringing Alfred Haines in to partner Rahul Tangirala, who looked at his majestic best with excellent timing and sound defence, while Haines provided great support at the other end. Cuckfield tried to break the partnership by bringing Rogers back on and one wild over took Horsham past 100. Haines departed shortly afterwards following a run out and the youngest member of the Horsham squad Zan Copleston announced his arrival with a couple of boundaries. Horsham got within 20 of the target when Tangirala was bowled for 64 and just when the crowd were getting tense Copleston decided to get the job done with two further boundaries followed by a winning single to see Horsham to a 7 wicket victory with 6 overs to spare, to be crowned Sussex Champions.

ally good and confident, so I just carried on!” Lewis also plays football, but says that cricket is his favourite game, proud mum Gemma adding: “Lewis is at Horsham’s Forest School, where they are really strong on sport – and at the moment he’s the top-scoring batsman at Roffey, with 766 league runs at U12 and U13 level.” Fortunately, Lewis’s cricket-loving dad Simon – no mean batsman himself – managed to time his lunch breaks very well to get to the Festival matches to savour Lewis’s exploits – Lewis Shivnarain is certainly one to keep an eye on at Roffey Cricket Club!

Garton’s top innings secures Saltdean bogey thwarts Horsham win at Brighton battling Heath Saturday August 11- Sussex Premier League Brighton & Hove 168-7 (35 overs) Horsham 171-8 (33.1 overs) Horsham won by 2 wickets – Horsham 26 points - Brighton 14 Cricket Martin Read - Sports Reporter The teams’ last encounter resulted in a disappointing home draw when Brighton confounded their league aspirations by making no attempt to get the runs, but this time it was a more competitive game, Horsham’s pulsating win at the seaside severely denting Brighton’s lingering chances of lifting the title. Brighton have been heavily reliant on their three big guns – Salt, Wells and Machan, none of whom were playing, but they still

posted a useful 168 off 35 overs in the rain reduced game – Friday’s cloudburst overcoming the sheet covers, delaying the start. After being put in, Brighton started well with a first wicket stand of 76, their top four batsmen all going on to make useful contributions, although late inroads by Will Beer, Joe Ashmore and Mika Ekstrom – all three bowlers finishing with 2 wickets apiece – curtailed the scoring. Replying, Horsham were soon in trouble, the cream of their batting -Tom Haines, Beer and Michael Thornely - mustering only 24 between them. Contrary to rumours circulating elsewhere, Chris Nash was not playing, and at 73-6 the game might have been won and lost, but Sussex’s George Garton took control, adding 81 with Mika Ekstrom. When Ekstrom departed

for 24 the job was still not quite done, but Garton with 87 not out from 82 balls, with 8 fours and 5 sixes, secured Horsham’s victory with 11 balls remaining. On Saturday Horsham return to Cricketfield Road for their penultimate home game of the season – against second-placed Eastbourne, whom they beat at the Saffrons earlier in the season. Last Saturday, Eastbourne maintained their challenge for the title, scoring 226-8 off 45 overs (Jacob Smith 99 not out) before bowling out mercurial Middleton 134 inside 31 overs. Meanwhile, with Roffey’s win reported on elsewhere in your District Post, Cuckfield’s match v Preston Nomads and Ifield’s game against East Grinstead both fell victim to the weather with no play at either venue.

Late goal ensures YM’s progress in the FA Cup

Football Martin Read - Sports Reporter

YMCA’s visit to St Paul’s Stadium, Rotherhithe, in the London Borough of Southwark, for an Extra Preliminary Round FA Cup game ended in YM’s third win from three starts this season. Fisher FC from the Southern Counties East League scored first but YM kept battling, a late goal delivering victory. After a very even first half on Fisher’s artificial pitch the score remained goal-less at the break, both keepers negating chances created by each side in the closely matched contest. Early in the second half YM began to make changes, Mark Cave coming off for Tony Nwachukwu a few minutes before Sam Pekun opened Fisher’s account by making the most of a flowing team move - followed by an acrobatic celebration to match his success. Then, Tony Garrod made way for Dean Bown, who, like Nwachukwu, has joined YM from Horsham. Julian Miller managed the side in the absence of Peter Buckland on holiday and his two substitutions proved to be inspired moves, because in the 78th minute Nwachukwu equalised from close range. Spirited play followed, with Alex Barbary and Ash Dugdale being given yellow cards before Bown then gave YM the lead from inside the box right on the scheduled end time to record YM’s first cup success since 2016. In the next round on Saturday August 25th – the FA Cup Preliminary stage, YM are away to Kent’s Ashford United at their Homelands Stadium. Ashford play in the Bostik South Division – the league above YM – and the winners of the tie will receive £2,890 and the losers £960. On Saturday YM take to the road again for a league match against testing opponents Chichester City

Tuesday August 7 Southern Combination Football League Premier Division Saltdean United 3 2 Broadbridge Heath Football Martin Read - Sports Reporter This was the third time in four games against Saltdean United that Heath have taken a 2-0 lead and ended up on the losing side. The first half went so well for the Bears with the majority of possession, and better chances, early Heath pressure seeing a shot from Devon Fender go narrowly over the crossbar, and Ben Chowney making his starting debut, almost scored following a defensive error that was cleared away by a retreating defender. Whereas, United’s first attempt on goal wasn’t until the 28th minute when Mark Fox’s goal kick miscued straight to Jamie Brotherton who advanced towards goal but shot straight at Fox, who gathered comfortably. Heath then took a deserved lead in the 37th minute, from a corner - Lee Carney side-stepping a challenge before drilling in a low right foot shot from the edge of the box. In the closing stages of the half Salt-

dean’s Josh Marshall had an effort well saved by Fox at the near post and it remained 0-1 at the break. Heath doubled their lead four minutes into the restart, when Scott Weller supplied Ben Hands, whose shot was blocked by the keeper, before Fender rifled the rebound into the net. Saltdean then upped their game, pulling back a goal in the 58th minute, Ben Bacon stabbing home a free kick from close range following a goal mouth fumble. Inspired, Saltdean pushed forward in search of the equalizer, but Matt Hurley’s distant shot skimmed the Heath crossbar. However, they equalized in the 66th minute, when, from a needlessly conceded free kick, Curtis Gayler hit a low shot past the defensive wall that went under the Heath keeper’s outstretched body into the net. The turnaround was completed four minutes later when Gayler received the ball from a throw-on on the left, his distant, speculative right foot shot dipped and swerved past Fox in the Heath goal. Heath rallied in the final ten minutes, Cousins, Bold and Fender all having goal attempts, but it wasn’t to be and despite a good team performance the Bears came away unrewarded.
