Residents can have their say about plans to merge the fire services of West Sussex, East Sussex and Brighton and Hove. West Sussex County Council and East Sussex Fire Authority will hold a 12-week public consultation on the proposed merger of West Sussex Fire and Rescue with its counterpart next door.
The news comes after a business case concluded a merger was the best option to protect community fire and rescue services from the national pressures on public spending. The consultation will take place from next Thursday, July 14, to October 6. Feedback will be considered before a final decision is made. In December, West Sussex County Council and East Sussex Fire Authority announced they would explore options for closer collaboration, up to and including a full merger of the fire and rescue services. The aim was to explore which options
would preserve services at the same time as seeking efficiency savings to meet financial pressures from grant reductions. They also wanted to see how increased collaboration or a full merger would improve “operational resilience and overall capacity to the collective benefit of local residents, businesses and visitors”. A potential merger was considered by East Sussex Fire Authority in a confidential session on June 2. If the authorities decide not to pursue a full merger, work will continue on closer collaboration and “the more limited opportunities for financial savings”.

Two hundred years ago, Horsham was at the centre of a nationwide campaign to stop France conquering us and much of Europe. Tantalising glimpses of the story can be seen today in architecture and place names around Horsham, at Horsham Museum and Art Gallery and in Napoleonic re-enactment drills as part of FrenchFest (July 15-17). From 9am to 5pm next Saturday, July 16, soldiers in Napoleonic dress
will reproduce drill routines across the town centre, inviting children to take part, telling stories and singing songs. This highlight of FrenchFest is sponsored by La Source, East Street. A display will provide more information about the Napoleonic period and youngsters will be invited to take part in a quiz. For more information about FrenchFest, see www.frenchfest. co.uk

Meet a rising star – and his car Matthew James News Editor
matthew@the-resident.co.uk
FrenchFest is giving you the chance to meet one of sport’s brightest young talents and sit in his motor racing car. Formula Renault BARC driver Kieran Vernon will be in Piries Place next Saturday, July 16. And the car he drove to victory at Brands Hatch will be there on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July 15-17. It’s your chance to sit in the car and meet the very handsome 21-year-old from West Chiltington, who is following in the footsteps of Lewis Hamilton as one of the British Racing Drivers Club’s (BRDC) “Rising Stars”. Raffle tickets will be available, with the fantastic prize of two tickets to watch Vernon in the Porsche Carrera Cup and the Formula Renault BARC
series at Silverstone on Sunday, October 16. He will even take the lucky pair into the new Silver Wing enclosure, his pit lane garage and the very exclusive BRDC Pavilion, where they can watch races from the roof-top terrace. Vernon, who attended West Chiltington Primary School, Rydon Community College and Steyning Grammar School, is aiming for the top. He said: “I would like to be a professional racing driver one day. I’d like to race in Formula 1, Le Mans and the Indy Car Series in America. “Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Raikkonen raced in Formula Renault, so it does provide some decent drivers.” Money raised from the Piries Place event will go to the John Gordon Sports Foundation, which helps underfunded sportspeople such as Vernon, who needs more sponsors for his Renault and Porsche. Races at the Silverstone meeting in
October, which also include the final round of the British Touring Cars, will be shown live on ITV4 – a huge opportunity for local businesses to get exposure on national TV by backing Vernon. The Piries Place event is in association with Fortec Motorsport, Piries Place traders, West Chiltington Golf Club, The Resident newspaper and The Resident Magazine.
Matthew Wheeler, managing director of HD Publishing, said: “The Resident is backing Kieran because we recognise he is an exceptionally bright local talent and we realise motor racing is an expensive sport.”

Bus campaigner’s cautious optimism
Dead woman named
A campaigner against bus cuts says a compromise could still be reached to satisfy councillors and residents. Caroline Collins was speaking after attending a meeting of West Sussex County Council’s strategic environmental services committee at County Hall, Chichester. Mrs Collins has been one of the most strident opponents of the county council’s plans to axe the 86 bus, which serves Horsham, Southwater, West Grinstead, Partridge Green, Shermanbury, Cowfold, Bolney, Ansty, Cuckfield including Warden Park School, and Haywards Heath including the Princess Royal Hospital.
A woman who died when she fell from a Horsham car park has been named. Linda Ruth Matthews, 58, of Trefoil Close, Horsham, died after she fell from the multi-storey car park in Swan Walk shortly after 5pm last Wednesday, June 29. Paramedics and an air ambulance were called, but she was pronounced dead at the scene. The death is not being treated as suspicious and the matter has been referred to the coroner’s officer.
I am hopeful that ‘some good will come out of the whole sordid affair

The county council plans to remove or reduce more than 60 bus services in October as part of its plan to reduce overall spending by £79 million over the next three years. Mrs Collins, from Cowfold, said after the meeting: “The chairman, Cllr Duncan Crow, allowed the 10-minute slot for a verbal update on the bus cut situation to over-run considerably. “This gave committee members ample time to ask questions of county transport manager Andy Ekinsmyth and the new working group chairman, Cllr John O’Brien.
“Andy reported that over 5,000 responses were received, mostly concentrated in certain areas including ours. “They have recognised that certain proposals to cut or reduce routes will need to be deferred for varying lengths of time to allow community options or commercial bus services to be arranged. “On Monday the group will meet to discuss their findings and to put test questions to individual routes before making final decisions on the fate of these routes.
“It is my understanding that the announcement of all these decisions will be made by July 18. “Cllr Derek Deedman (Lib Dem, Bramber Castle) attempted to push the point that the budget is still set at £2 million to save, so any delays are indeed just that. “He also made the point that the current list of services only represents £1.3 million, so a new list will be released at a later date with the extra £700,000-worth of services for the axe. “Andy and John did not deny these

points but said any change in cuts figures is a political issue. “We met Andy and John outside the committee room after the item and talked more informally about the situation. “They admitted that this is not a situation they have had to deal with before and they, like us, are on a very long learning curve. “I am hopeful that some good will come out of the whole sordid affair. We may not get exactly what we want, but a real compromise may yet be found.”

Boost for Thinking Garden scheme The fundraising effort for a new Thinking Garden, partly in memory of an eight-year-old girl, has received a new boost. Parents and children at Holbrook Primary School organised a nearly new toy sale to tie in with the school’s annual fair. And they raised £435.50 towards the cost of the garden after the death of Abigail Hargreaves from cancer in December. The 57 youngsters in Year 4, including 29 in Abigail’s class, came up with the idea of a Thinking Garden as a tribute to their friend and a quiet place for other people to reflect.
There is still a lot of ‘fundraising to be done ’
They researched, designed and costed the project and sent out letters to local businesses appealing for money and help. Parent Fiona Christer told The Resident: “The response has been fantastic, but the Holbrook School families appreciate there is still a lot of fundraising to be done. “In the lead-up to the fair, children brought in their unwanted items to school. Some parents sorted the toys during the week, ready for the fair. “It was like a toy shop and the array of items was huge. The stall had everything from small 10p items to bikes and even a snooker table! There were so many items at the start of day, the parents running the stall could barely move.
“Everyone who shopped left with a bargain. Books were being sold by the carrier bag load for only £2. “Some parents ‘overpaid’ for their items as a way of contributing to the worthwhile cause. Some younger children queued up with their small change and left with a variety of items and big smiles on their faces. “The stall proved extremely popular and almost sold out of everything.” Another parent said: “This has been a great success and we are glad we did it. We need to turn our thoughts to raising more money to ensure the garden is a success.” Head teacher Deborah Moss said: “The children are the brains behind the project and have tried to make it reflect Abigail’s interests, including horses.” A horse-riding theme includes ideas of horseshoe-shaped flower beds, a horse trough wildlife pond, fences that look like showjumping poles and a horse woven out of willow, made with the help of boys at The Forest School. Some of the flowers planted will be in Abigail’s favourite colours of purple and turquoise. The plans also include paving, gates, steps, seats, bird feeders and boxes, wind chimes and a covered blackboard on which children can write their reflections. Horsham Green Gym cleared the waste ground of brambles and bushes, free of charge. The Rotary Club of Horsham is helping arrange for work to be done and will make a donation from its Making a Difference scheme. Donations have come from

Grounds for optimism at Horsham FC Horsham Football Club are edging towards submitting a planning application for a new ground. The Hornets have been groundsharing for three seasons – first at Worthing, now with Horsham YMCA at Gorings Mead – following the sale of the club’s old Queen Street ground for development. But chairman Kevin Borrett told supporters at a fans’ forum on Wednesday: “We have an agreement with a landowner in the south Horsham area. That agreement is currently being finalised in legal form with lawyers and will then be signed. “I refuse to confirm or deny that it’s the original site that many of you are aware of. I’ve learnt my lesson, I’m not going to give a date (for the planning application or the first match).” Holbrook resident Jim Rae, who opposed the football club’s previous plans, was elected as a district councillor in May and could play a part in deciding on the new scheme. Mr Borrett said Cllr Rae was unable to express an opinion on the club’s vision because any such prejudicial remarks could disqualify him from voting. But the chairman added: “Ahead of his election as a councillor, he made a number of suggestions and ideas, some of which the club have taken forward.” New manager meets the fans: See Page 61
£10k boost for youngsters Horsham Matters, the action arm of Horsham Churches Together, has made a £10,000 grant to support a new early intervention programme. The E:liv8 programme has been designed as a joint venture between two local charities – the Family Foundations Trust and Splash for Schools and Communities – to support young people across West Sussex. Through interactive and practical modules, E:liv8 draws out and builds on the gifts and skills of each individual, enabling them to become more effective as individuals and make a positive contribution to their school and community. The programme consists of several modules over the course of the year, with one-to-one mentors assigned to challenge, support and affirm each young person throughout. Young people who have taken part in E:liv8 have seen improved self-esteem and self-confidence and raised motivation and aspirations. These have led to increased attainment at school as well as a desire to explore new potential career paths. One student said: “I will look at new tasks differently and think about the stages more. Year 10 is the most crucial year and you need to get through each obstacle, like on the course. I just need to get through them like we did.” Another said: “The mentoring was good. It helped me out. It was good to have someone to talk to.” Matt Calvert, head of E:liv8 project
development, told The Resident: “I’m very excited to be a part of the E:liv8 project. The programme has great potential to improve the outcomes for young people across West Sussex.

“We are looking at how we can make it more widely available to benefit young people in schools and within local youth groups across the district.”
Cllr David Sheldon
Cllr David Sheldon, chief executive of Horsham Matters, said: “We are delighted to be able to support E:liv8. It’s great to be able to use some of the money we’ve raised through our Community Charity Centre to enable the programme to expand. “We’re excited at the prospect of even more young people experiencing the positive impact that E:liv8 has had on those who have already been involved.” Horsham Matters has been running the Community Charity Centre for just over 18 months. Due to the generosity of residents, the centre has generated enough money to allow Horsham Matters to support other local projects. As well as running Horsham Children Can Do and its own advocacy service for young people, the charity has helped the Horsham Debt Advice Service and the Salvation Army’s Hope In project. Cllr Sheldon added: “We’re very pleased to be able to support these initiatives. “Our whole reason for being is to enable the local churches to demonstrate in practical ways God’s love for the residents of Horsham. These projects certainly do that.” For more information about Horsham Matters and the Community Fund, email info@horsham-matters. org.uk or visit www.horsham-matters.org.uk For more details about E:liv8, email Matt Calvert at matt@eliv8.org or see www.eliv8.org
Weight Loss is all about a positive state of mind says Sue McColl. ith regular news reports focusing on rising levels of obesity W – and celebrity diets dominating magazines, there’s no doubt that improving the nation’s health is a top priority. But while everyone
knows about the dangers of excess weight, managing to change to a healthier lifestyle remains a struggle for many busy, hard working people. Sue McColl from Chessington was one of those people and had been attempting to lose weight through numerous calorie counting diets for years. The turning point for Sue was a weight loss programme that focused on changing attitudes to food and eating. This programme is called Sit&Slim and is offered by Miruji Health Spa. The Miruji Health Spa offering is essentially a technologically advanced therapeutic massage chair that helps the body relax and relieve stress while, most importantly, listening to a professionally structured programme of audio tapes that encourage the brain to develop a different relationship to food and eating. The tapes use a technique called Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) to engender positive attitudes and encourage the listener to take control of their eating and exercise habits. The technique has been popularized by practitioners such as Paul McKenna and has been specifically developed to focus on weight loss for Miruji by top personal excellence coach Tianne Croshaw. Sue says that, at first, losing weight while simply “sitting” sounded too good to be true. But as she points out, it’s the powerful audio programme that come with the therapeutic wellbeing chair that makes the system so effective. For Sue McColl, the transformation has been extraordinary and she attributes this entirely to the Miruji Health Spa.
Sue McColl’s 4 stone weight loss stor y “My doctor was concerned about my weight problem and recommended I diet. Over the years I’ve tried all manner of diets but I always seemed to put the weight back on again far too easily. I’d never considered myself to be someone who’d ‘let themselves go’, but I just couldn’t keep my weight in check. When I first tried the Miruji Health Spa it was more in hope than expectation and I admit I was a bit skeptical at first. But it’s been a revelation for me. The massage is wonderfully relaxing but it’s the tapes that I listened to that made me think and feel differently about food and my outlook on life that has completely changed me for the better. I have lost 4 stone in weight but, more importantly, my confidence has gone through the roof! Best of all, I can spend the whole day shopping with my daughters and not feel tired or frumpy. It sounds corny, but it really has changed my life”.
A treatment usually costs £12 but you can try it for FREE this month by calling FREE PHONE 0800 331 7738. Miruji Health Spa is now open at New Malden, Brentford, Warnham and Chesham.
News in Brief Cash for Samaritans A total of £135 was raised for the Samaritans by Horsham Boot Camps in Horsham Park. Andrew Wilson ran the boot camp free of charge and participants were invited to donate money to the Samaritans instead of their normal fees. He said: “Samaritans do such good work. It’s a cause I really wanted to support and this seemed to be a fun way to do it.” Philip Midwinter, chairman of the local Samaritans branch, said: “We really appreciate the effort that everyone put in, especially Andrew. “As a self-funding organisation, it’s always a struggle to finance the upkeep and running of our branch so every contribution is very welcome.”
Success at Shipley Hot on the heels of its improved Ofsted report, Shipley School has been rated “outstanding” by Diocesan school inspectors. Christina Maude, chair of governors, said of head teacher Caitriona Bull: “She has, through dynamic leadership, included every member of the school community in the vision for our development.”

Their marathon effort will start at Mannings Heath Golf Club at 4.30am on Monday, continue at Cottesmore and Rookwood clubs and hopefully finish on the 18th at Tilgate Golf Club, Crawley, by 7pm on Tuesday.

Horsham District Council’s building control team worked closely with the builders to ensure that this unusual construction – built from locally sourced trees and insulated with straw bales and sheep’s wool – is safe, sustainable and energy-efficient for holidaymakers. Mrs Griffiths said: “We needed to diversify the business and our vision was to build a unique holiday home in the heart of the Sussex Weald. “We saw Channel 4’s Grand Designs programme which featured Ben’s woodland home, constructed as a cruck framed, roundwood house. It was enchanting and we wanted to build one, so we are delighted that Ben agreed to take on our project. “The house is timber framed, insulated with straw and sheep’s wool and plastered with lime render mixed
with horse hair – not your everyday type of work – so we thought that meeting building regulation standards might be a challenge. “With the help of Sussex Building Control, who are very experienced at working with innovative materials and methods of construction, we have achieved our dream.”

The Knepp Estate, West Grinstead, is proposing to create a mile-long public footpath in the Knepp Park, near the historic castle and grounds. Owner Charlie Burrell said: “Many people enjoy walking, riding and cycling at Knepp, but this new route will be slightly different. “Our land is pretty flat and views are limited, but we are hoping to create an earth bund which will not only screen the park from the A24 but will also create a ridgeline to form part of this footpath. “It will provide great views back across the park, as well as somewhere to toboggan! “We started by opening up the medieval Knepp Castle and went on to create five miles of riding routes to help get horses off the busy roads. Since then, new legitimate paths have been made around Shipley and Dial Post. “The number of walkers has increased dramatically since we recreated the park. I hope this new path will become an interesting destination.”
No plans to close Carpetright has eased fears that its store in Broadbridge Heath could close. The company has recorded a 70 per cent fall in pre-tax profits and says it is looking at the viability of some of its outlets, prompting fears that some of its 18 stores in Sussex face the axe. But a spokesman for the company told The Resident: “We have no current plans to close the Broadbridge Heath store and it continues to trade as normal.”

Tolerance is a virtue
Respect your elders
Writing as one who is now in his 70s, I was saddened to read Ms Briony Rendell’s caustic comments about the behaviour of pensioners (The Resident, July 1). None of us choose when we enter this world and certainly none of us know when we will depart. It’s how we behave towards our fellow men and women during our lifetime that’s important. And, in my view, young Briony falls into the trap of lumping the unacceptable behaviour of some elderly people together with senior citizens as a whole. The same blanket approach could be levelled at some pensioners who condemn out of hand the behaviour of all young people today. That said, it is understandable that many of the elderly feel threatened by some of the foul-mouthed young louts who have little respect for their elders – or anything else for that matter. They appear to forget that they too might just reach fragile old age some day. What Briony Rendell tends to forget is the fact that many pensioners lived through the war, losing relatives and friends in the process. She may not be aware that over 50,000 members of RAF Bomber Command alone gave their lives in order to ensure that the likes of Ms Rendell enjoy freedom of expression. And I doubt if she has ever experienced real hardship or personal danger, like being bombed night after night or serving in the armed forces. I have. So my message to Ms Rendell is a simple one. Learn to be a little more tolerant. Learn a little more about recent history. And, above all, grow up!
In response to Briony Rendell’s letter. I was brought up to respect one’s elders. The lady must be leading an extremely shallow life.
Robert B Worley Bourns Court, Horsham
Don’t be bitter I don’t actually subscribe to the notion that rudeness in everyday society can be solely blamed on the old or the young. There is, however, one observation I would like to make regarding the comments made by your correspondent Briony Rendell. I suppose as I will shortly fit into the category of pensioner, Miss Rendell may well automatically consider me a member of the enemy camp. But when I read the qualities she ascribes to pensioners – such as rudeness, arrogance, a lack of respect, a complaining nature and a general sense of bitterness – it is hard to ignore the fact that she seems to be displaying these qualities only too readily herself. To read this from somebody still so relatively young, one can only be saddened at the thought of how bitter she could become by the time she reaches pensionable age.

Footballers with heart The Crawley and Horsham branch of the British Heart Foundation would like to thank everybody involved with TD Shipley Football Club. They have raised the magnificent sum of £1,000 to help with our work in the fight against heart and circulatory disease. These funds were donated in memory of a former member and player at the club. Steven Sweet passed away at the tender age of 25 and has never been forgotten by his friends. Many of his pals came together to roll back the years and take part in an over-30s six-a-side tournament held at the club’s ground in Steven’s memory. The sun shone, with a carnival atmosphere. Thanks to Dan Howe, Carl Azzoo, Keith Richardson and Steve Borrow for organising the event and to everybody who attended. We have been leading the fight against heart disease in the UK for 50 years and will continue to do so until it is no longer a major cause of disability and early death. With our supporters’ help, we are providing funding for all areas of heart research, buying life-saving equipment for hospitals, and providing BHF nurses to give advice and reassurance to heart patients and their families. We also publish free heart health information to help people reduce their risk of heart problems or to understand an existing condition. Gerry Howard Chairman British Heart Foundation Crawley and Horsham branch
Not animal magic In reply to Mr Kemp’s comments (The Resident, June 24). MPs have just voted for a total ban on all wild animals working in circuses. However seemingly content animals in circus captivity may appear to Mr Kemp, they are not content. No more so than the dancing bear in Romania, or the ‘laughing’ dolphin in the aqua parks or the bull slowly bleeding to death after the picador has done his work. Wild or otherwise, animals should not be used for entertainment. Carla Insull Walton Drive, Horsham

Kings Head Len I well remember the Kings Head in the Fifties (The Resident, June 24). It was owned by Scottish and Newcastle brewers, but they never gave it quite the attention it deserved as the leading central hotel in Horsham and even then it was a little run down. Maybe it was too far from both Scotland and Newcastle. The place to go at lunchtime was a little bar tucked away at the back and, quite innocently, called the Wee Willie bar. It was presided over by barman Len and was the haunt of businessmen having a couple of quick halves of Scotch ale before venturing to the Stuart Tea Rooms or the Lynwood (if impressing a client) for lunch. Women were unusual, except for Eileen Cripps (of the posh grocers Evershed and Cripps family) who would regularly be seen at the bar smoking her Craven A and whizzing through The Times crossword puzzle. Len was jealous of his little group and not too keen on women. Occasionally a lady might appear at the entrance to the bar, but Len would invariably call out: “It’s at the top of the stairs on the left, madam” and this never failed to solve the problem. On Saturday morning the scene changed entirely as the young took over the bar and the adjoining hotel reception. They came during that gap between coffee at Wakefield’s café in West Street and sport in the afternoon. The general objective was to decide where to have a party on Saturday night and this depended mainly on whose parents might be away. Today this would all be done on Facebook or Twitter, but the Kings Head method was much more fun. Surprisingly, Len took to the Saturday morning crowd, calling them “my flock”. Len’s life was the Kings Head. He lived in a room in the hotel and was an excellent barman, having worked as a steward in the Army. He never called anyone anything but “sir” or “madam” and he knew what and how much they would drink. His outside interests were Everton Football Club and long drives in his car on his days off. When he was sacked, some owners later, he tragically died within a few weeks.
The Kings Head in 1951
Change in the Carfax From a cursory glance, the two photographs of the Carfax look much the same (The Resident, June 17). But on closer inspection, there have been many changes to our ancient town centre during the intervening 60 years. The corner of Middle Street and the Carfax has changed beyond recognition. The wellpatronised chemist, Evans, located on the corner has gone – along with the old Barclays Bank building, replaced in the Fifties with an enlarged red brick branch of the bank. On the right, Ye Olde Kings Head Hotel remains. But in 1951 it was the flagship hostelry of the town with its busy bars and popular restaurant. Today it remains boarded up, a shadow of its former self, surrounded by trendy foreign restaurants. There are no cobbled streets or yellow lines in the 1951 pic. Note the motor car parked outside what was the old Westminster Bank, prior to its merger with National Provincial to form NatWest. The war memorial was moved to its present site and the underground public lavatories were filled in when the area received a makeover a number of years back. An Evening Argus seller, ‘Tiddler’ Stanford, was a familiar figure in this area of the Carfax back in the Fifties. One definite improvement to the Carfax is the array of flowers and foliage to be seen in the current photograph. Those who formed Horsham in Bloom deserve a great deal of credit for their initiative and hard work.

Parking for disabled In response to ‘New parking charge is beyond belief’ (The Resident, June 24). Maybe it would be interesting for all those complaining to know this. In May we took our annual holiday in Cornwall. Every car park we visited, run by independents and local councils, had a clear sign; disabled parking was available, badge holders had to pay standard charges at all times. Perhaps it is a sign of the times and of the over-subscription of the blue badge system that is causing this to happen.

Vinall are in the younger GB Cadets. Both sides will play a minimum of five competitive games at the 5,300-seat Spring training ground of Houston Astros – which is in Kissimmee, Florida, because of the warmer weather there in pre-season.
It’s the biggest ‘tournament I’ve ever been in ’
Also taking part in the tournament are two sides from the United States, plus national teams from France, Canada, Mexico, Peru, Puerto Rico and Venezuela. The stadium could be full for at least some of the games, while dozens of scouts from the US Major League and colleges are expected to check out the talent on show. This opens up the possibility of Hornets players being invited to join top American clubs or, more likely, being offered scholarships at colleges in the States. Some of the Hornets have played in Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Italy, Sweden and Turkey, but Phil Edmonds, head coach of Horsham Hornets, said: “It will be the hardest level of opposition the lads will have experienced. “The weather will be a factor too because we haven’t played in that heat and humidity before.
“The US teams and any of the South American teams will be a very stiff challenge, so we’re not thinking we’re going to go over there and win it. “It’s a big challenge, but that’s the reason we’re going. When we come to a European qualifier next year, it will help us to have played baseball at a higher level. It’s a way for us to progress from the second tier of teams in Europe.” Mr Edmonds’ son, Jordan, said: “It’s always a great honour to be selected for your country, but to play at such a great facility in America will be a dream come true. “I’ve never been to America and it’s the biggest tournament I’ve ever been in. We will be playing in front of big crowds and we need to play the best we can to test ourselves.” Zack, Sam Boylett, Jacob and Callum are from The Forest School, Jordan and Guy from Tanbridge House School, and Joe from The Weald School. Jamie and Sam Ratcliff are from Kent. Hornets’ Tyler Burnie is suffering heartbreak as he misses the tour after breaking a hand. Horsham Hornets are the elite squad at Horsham Junior Baseball Club (HJBC), the largest baseball club in the UK and the fifth largest in Europe. Most of the HJBC teams play at Ingfield Manor School, Five Oaks, but the Hornets play home matches against South East opposition at Waterhall, Brighton, on the only full-sized baseball field in Sussex.

And he thought Paxman was tough MP Nick Herbert got a grilling when he visited Jolesfield Primary School, Partridge Green. The MP for Arundel and South Downs was quizzed by children, who asked: “Who inspired you to become an MP?”, “what are the best and worst parts of the job?”, “who is the most famous person you have met?” and “what is it like in Parliament?” They also asked about local issues, including university fees, cuts to bus services and improvements to the local park. The MP was welcomed by cohead teacher Christine Knight and
governor Rory Payne. Mrs Knight gave him a tour of the school and he was interested to learn about Jolesfield’s links to other schools, particularly Northgate School in Crawley Mr Herbert, minister for policing and criminal justice, said: “I very much enjoyed my visit. It was good to speak to Mrs Knight and learn how high standards have been achieved. “I particularly enjoyed the question and answer session with the pupils, who had interesting and tough questions for me. I think careers as TV interviewers might be beckoning for some of them!”
Collyer’s students celebrate exam success

Level 2 BTEC Collyer’s students have enjoyed their ‘graduation’. Students studying BTEC Level 2 courses in art and design, child care and education, business, IT and sport were also the first students to receive the coveted Level 2 Sixth Form Baccalaureate (SFBac). Guest speaker Gill Buchanan, manager of the Swan Walk Shopping Centre, said: “Sincere congratulations must go to all of the students. I’m passionate about vocational qualifications because they are extremely valuable in the workplace. “The students have all done incredibly well and their parents must be extremely proud.” Principal Jackie Johnston said:
“This is the first Level 2 SFBac graduation year and it’s fitting that we have such a special group of students to honour it. Some are going straight into the workplace, others are staying on to study Level 3 courses with us. Wherever they move on to from here, I’m sure they will be successful.” Awards were given to the top student from each subject area – Martin Dimitrov (art and design), Rebecca Tidy (child care and education), Billy Basmadjian (business), Adam Dedman (IT) and James Hickman (sport). Rebecca Tidy said: “I’d like to say a big thank you, on behalf of my group, to our teachers. They’ve been brilliant.”
Continued from Page 1 A final business case, including outcomes from the public consultation, will be presented to the county council and fire authority at their respective meetings in December. If agreed, a merger would be subject to government approval and would not come into effect before April 1, 2013. West Sussex county councillor Pete Bradbury, Cabinet member for public protection, said: “Our priority remains to provide excellent fire and rescue services to our residents. “In the current difficult financial climate, we believe this innovative approach of merging the fire services of East and West Sussex and Brighton and Hove could enable us to continue to deliver excellent services and improve our operational capability, while reducing back office, management and administration costs. “The views of the public are important to us and I hope residents, businesses, organisations and stakeholders will participate in the consultation. No decision will be made until the results of the consultation have been considered.” Cllr John Livings, chairman of East Sussex Fire Authority, said: “We believe a larger fire authority would be better in terms of building a more resilient organisation. “The views of the public on such a crucial issue are extremely important to us. A consultation process will take place to provide local council taxpayers with the opportunity to give us their feedback before any decisions are taken.” County councillor Brad Watson (Con, Southwater and Nuthurst) told The Resident: “With the very difficult circumstances that councils find themselves in, I think it’s a very good idea. “It is our duty to look at every expenditure level. If there’s a way to save money, we will do that – but not at the cost of safety. “If you have two fire authorities, you have two management hierarchies. Management savings may be possible. “I think the days of local authorities having their own little empires are long gone. When you need a fire engine, no one is going to worry what badge it has on it. “One of the silver linings of the financial difficulties is that more and more local authorities are willing and able to look at cross-border cooperation.” County councillor Frank Wilkinson (Con, Storrington) said: “The Chanctonbury CLC will hopefully be including this issue as one of the agenda items on September 28. “Until then, the residents of West Sussex will start to be involved in the public consultation, which I am sure will be most interesting.”

South Lodge backs cancer charity Employees of South Lodge Hotel, Horsham, joined forces with friends, family and local residents to run or walk 5km for Macmillan Cancer Support. The event was one of six organised by the accounts departments of the country house hotel group, Exclusive Hotels. Starting at the front of the hotel, the route circled around the hotel’s activity field, through the surrounding fields and tracks and back to the hotel, taking in a couple of loops of the lakes in the grounds. As the runners and walkers set off, the total raised already stood at £24,911.
Sue Balut, account manager at South Lodge, said: “With 27 people here, including our general manager Rupert Spurgeon, we are really delighted with the turnout. This is our chance to do our bit.” This year is the 30th anniversary of Exclusive Hotels, which is aiming to raise £30,000 for Macmillan Cancer Research and £30,000 for the hospitality industry charity, Springboard. The core event is a sponsored bike ride, which will start in Hertfordshire on July 20 and finish at South Lodge Hotel on July 24. For more information, visit www.30thirty30.co.uk

Quality brands and furniture on your doorstep If you knew there was a home furnishings shop right here in Horsham, with more than 5,000 sq ft of floor space, full of well-known brands for every room, would you need to go anywhere else? Hoads, on the Bishopric, in Horsham’s town centre, has been providing an impressive range of high quality furniture and accessories for the home since 1924.
The fact that the ‘business has been going
for so long is a testament to our commitment to providing customers with what they like
’
Today, the family-run business remains independent, giving them control over the products and brands it can offer. Customers can choose from what’s in store, as well as using the furniture design service, for one-of-a-kind, bespoke pieces.
Co-owner Nick Rees said: “I think that a lot of people don’t realise the extensive range we can offer. “From the outside, the store looks quite small, but we have two floors of great products for the home. The fact that the business has been going for so long is a testament to our commitment to providing customers with what they like.” Hoads has grown and been able to expand its premises due to the quality merchandise it offers. It also focuses on providing an exceptional customer service – all of which has meant it has developed a strong reputation in the area. The shop floor has recently been refurbished to create a studio-style space, which incorporates the display of Zerostress range of recliners. The furniture company also understands that many of its customers benefit from the convenience of online shopping for home accessories. It has recently launched www. quirky-gifts.com, a website that offers fun and stylish items to make your home that little bit cooler and more unique. Products include giant beanbags, novelty doorstops and large hammocks.

Dee has more than 26 years’ experience in the industry and her latest book offers guidance for small businesses to help them grow, using simple and proven marketing methods. Dee said: “It’s always been my goal to help people develop their business with sound and simple marketing. So to be able to pass my knowledge on in two books is a dream come true”. The second book was officially launched at an event held at Roffey Park Institute recently. More than 100 guests attended including clients, some of which had been working with Dee since the beginning, as well as friends and fans of Dee’s first book. The author’s family including her mother, brother, husband and two sons were also there. At the event Dee said: “It has taken countless hours, many sleepless nights and reams of editing to get to this point. But it’s all worth it. I hope that everyone who reads it will find it invaluable to them and their business. I am so grateful to everyone for coming and for the support.” Rob Harrison is VP of Sales and Business Development at Cybersift, a communications capturing and monitoring technology company. At the event he said: “I bought Dee’s first book after meeting her and I thought it was really great - simple, effective advice that will really help small businesses. I came from Hampshire to be here this evening because I wanted to show my support. Not only is she an accomplished author and marketing expert, but a really nice person. It has been a terrific event.” Paul Sheldrake, managing director at Creative Vision Promotions added: “We’ve followed Dee’s expert advice for a long time and are thrilled to be here to show our support. It’s a really great achievement. Now I’m going to go and buy the book!” Dee sold copies of the new book at the launch and donated £2 from each one to charities that are close to her heart. The money was divided between Ovacome and The Cystic Fibrosis Trust. Speakers at the event included Dee’s brother who hosted the evening, Mike Collins, managing director at AccountAssyst, which sponsored the event, and Julie Stanford, a respected business consultant, speaker and author. She said: “As an author myself, I know it is no small thing to be a published writer. “It takes focus, time and energy and a great deal of hard work. My warmest congratulations go out to Dee on this wonderful achievement.”

No decision on Crime-reducing scheme train station shops launched for businesses Internet rumours about the businesses opening in Horsham Train Station as part of its planned redevelopment are inaccurate, according to the station’s operator. Despite comments on social networking website Facebook recently, which implied that Costa Coffee and M&S would be tenants, the business that runs the station has said it is not known which businesses will be setting up shop there. Chris Hudson, media relations manager at Southern, said: “No decision has been made on tenants for the new retail spaces on the concourse at Horsham station.”

People who work on industrial or commercial estates in Horsham are being encouraged to sign up to a new scheme that aims to help reduce the number of crimes affecting the business community. By joining the free Business Watch scheme, members will receive regular emails about incidents that have taken place locally. Horsham District Community Safety Partnership, the Horsham, Crawley and Mid-Sussex Branch of the Federation of Small Businesses and the Horsham Chamber of Commerce and Industry endorse the scheme. The scheme was launched recently at Trafalgar Cleaning Equipment, in Foundry Close by assistant chief constable Robin Merrett on behalf of Sussex Police and its partners. A day of action also took place during which PCs and PCSOs attended businesses in the Blatchford Road and Foundry Lane area, so people
could sign up to the scheme. Business Watch in Horsham has been started in order to increase the flow of communication between business communities and Sussex Police, to prevent and detect crime, increase intelligence and reassure the community.
Business Watch is an ‘example of an innovative
approach that has been taken to address the needs of a specific group
’
Robin Merrett said: “Business Watch is an example of an innovative approach that has been taken to address the needs of a specific group. I am very impressed by the way that this has developed and am confident
that it will bring real improvements to our working relationships within the business community.” Neil Worth, community safety officer for Horsham District Council, which is one of the members of the Horsham District Community Safety Partnership, said: “Business Watch hits one of our key priorities for the year - to reduce acquisitive crime. The scheme will encourage businesses to report crime so we can work together to protect the community and target our resources into the right places.” Ann Swain, the chair of the local Federation of Small Businesses added: “I am delighted that the local force is taking such positive action to reduce crime and its impact on a small business.” To sign up to the scheme, download the form at www.sussex.police. uk/advice-and-support/businesswatch or email PCSO Tom Guiney at tom.guiney@sussex.pnn.police.uk

Southern is an Investor in People Train operator Southern has been awarded the ‘Investors in People’ accreditation. The award demonstrates the company’s commitment to improving the business through its people and substantiates its vision of ‘making every journey better’ for both its passengers and staff. Southern’s head of organisation, leadership and behavioural development, Zoey Hudson, said: “We are delighted for both our staff and our passengers. “This recognition is a testament to the professionalism and hard work of all our people across our business,
which can only be a good thing for our passengers.” Before awarding the accreditation, assessors from Investors in People interviewed over 400 Southern staff members across the business. They gathered information to determine to what extent Southern engaged with its staff on topics such as recognition, leadership capability and opportunities for personal growth and development. Southern’s senior management team was also interviewed about the strategic goals of the business and how these were communicated throughout the organisation to
ensure employees were clear about their day-to-day responsibilities. Zoey added: “Among the organisational strengths identified by the assessors was our people’s passion for delivering a great service for their internal and external customers, and recognition was also given to our new line manager structures which have been set up to build more effective relationships between managers and their teams. “We wouldn’t have achieved this external recognition if it wasn’t for the dedication and commitment of all of our people.”

Cultivating careers A new social enterprise set up by two men from Horsham is helping young people learn skills that will help them grow at work and in life Two local people have set up a non-profit-making landscaping business that helps young people gain valuable skills for work and life. Streetscape was established by Guy Watts and James Gubb from Horsham and aims to ‘grow lives’, by offering apprenticeships to people ages between 18 and 25 who have found it difficult to get a job. The organisation helps young people to develop the experience and personal attributes required to get and retain work. Together, they offer garden design,
landscaping and maintenance services for residential, corporate and public sector clients.
It has helped to ‘transform the lives
of those who helped build it
’
Guy Watts, co-founder, said: “We knew that there were plenty of young people who were struggling to find
a job or work experience, and many of them had the drive and ability to achieve things. Quite simply, we wanted to help. “We both love what we do, and felt that if we can instill the same passion in young people and give them opportunities, then the possibilities for what they could achieve are endless.” The Streetscape team of apprentices was recently asked to create a garden at The Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, and went on to win a gold medal at the event. With direction from designer Hugo Bugg, Streetscape created the garden on behalf of breast cancer awareness charity, Coppafeel!, an organisation that encourages women to get to know their breasts to detect abnormalities that could be cancerous early. Speaking at the launch of what is the first ever interactive breast cancer awareness garden, Guy said: “We are delighted to be involved in such a unique and important project. Like
James Gubb (left) and Guy Watts
Coppafeel! the design is bold, colourful and eye-catching. “This is the point - the more people that are drawn to the garden, the more we can raise awareness of getting to know your breasts to avoid late detection or misdiagnosis of breast cancer.” He added: “Coppafeel!’s garden will not only save lives through raising awareness; it has helped to transform the lives of those who helped
build it”. Anyone who is interested in the services that Streetscape can provide or in being an apprentice can visit www.streetscape.org.uk or call Guy Watts on 07887766300 or James Gubb on 07930 243570. Streetscape offers taster days at which anyone who is interested in the landscape design and gardening apprenticeships can find out more about the role.

For those who prefer to sit back and watch, Kettle of Fish brings international acts to the stage for a thrilling night of circus skills including one of Europe’s finest and most innovative jugglers, Rod Laver, with his oral ping pong.

world record by juggling eight ping pong balls with his mouth and has appeared several times on the BBC’s Let Me Entertain You. Also taking to the stage is Carlos Romero, with his virtuoso manipulation and another appearance for Isis and Nathan, after their success last year.

Called ‘Backing the RSSR’, the event is being held to raise money for charity and will include performances by local bands. It will take place between 12 midday and midnight and money collected will support the Scleroderma Society. Scleroderma is a disease that claimed the life of the father of Thain
Martin, who has organised the event. He was an artist, musician, record producer and singer, but sadly passed away in April. Thain believes a music event is a fitting tribute and the ideal way to raise money. On the day there will be an auction including Thin Lizzy memorabilia signed by Philomena Lynott herself, guitars, and plenty more up for grabs. There will also be an auction of toys for children, a bouncy castle, BBQ and beer tent. It will be a fantastic day for everyone who goes along.

A Pan-tastic cast A group of budding young actors have been cast in key roles in the Hawth’s Christmas pantomine, Peter Pan. Last month, boys from across Sussex were given the opportunity to audition for a place in the production at the Crawley theatre from Friday 9 to Saturday 31 December. The standard of those who auditioned was extremely high and Executive Producer Jonathan Kiley had a difficult job selecting the boys to play the roles of Michael and John in rotation during the run. Following a morning of individual auditions, the hopefuls were whittled down and those who made it through to the second round were asked to read extracts from the pantomime script, giving them a taste of what it could be like on stage this December opposite television star Nigel Havers. The lucky four selected for the roles of brothers John and Michael were Thomas Ball (aged 13, from Burgess Hill) and Daniel Haynes-De
Vita (aged 14, from Horsham) and real life brothers Matthew (aged 12) and Daniel Willis (aged 9) from Burgess Hill, a first for the producers, who have never cast real brothers in the roles before. The standard of those who auditioned was so high the producers were able to select a third pair of boys, who will act as understudies for the parts. This opportunity went to Tom Clark (aged 12) and James Whitaker (aged 10), both from East Grinstead. A spokesman for The Hawth said: “The Hawth and the pantomime producers are delighted to have found six such talented performers to add to the cast of Peter Pan. The swashbuckling show is now complete with a fantastic cast to go along with the magnificent scenery, beautiful costumes, comedy galore and stunning flying sequences.” To book tickets call The Hawth Box Office on 01293 553636 or visit www.hawth.co.uk

Drama work on show Creative, Exciting Drama Classes
Dramaworks showcases were held at The Capitol Studio recently, at which parents and friends of budding performers were entertained by a varied programme from children as young as four years old. Dramaworks showed how its unique concept of confidence-building workshops combined with academic qualifications is beneficial to those who take part both on and off stage. The showcases consisted of performances of scripted pieces, as well as a presentation of certificates from the prestigious London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. Performances by some of the younger children included a rendition of the Little Red Hen, complete with animal noises in the chorus, the Elves and the Shoemaker and a show based on Roald Dahl ‘s masterpiece, The BFG, complete with bone crushing giants. The Harry Potter books inspired a collection of performances by the eight to 11 year olds, which included extracts from Macbeth and stories based on Bloody Mary. The Box was based on the story of Malvolio in Twelfth Night and dealt with the theme of bullying, which struck a nerve with everyone as it reinforced one of the key aims of Dramaworks - to give children the
confidence to deal with problems they might face in life. Older members of Dramaworks demonstrated considerable talent, with a mixture of humour and serious drama. Time was the theme for the first act, with a humorous portrayal of a clash in generations when teenagers went back in time to meet their parents in their youth - complete with flared trousers! The study of a psychopath was the subject for the older boys - a brave choice but they successfully pulled off a chilling and powerful piece of drama. The performances of There’s no Business Like Show Business left the audience laughing at the dance performances by a group of overweight ladies directed by a man in a banana costume! The final piece was an extract from The Importance of Being Earnest, by Oscar Wilde, performed by the older youth theatre members of Fresnel Theatre Company. They will be staging the whole play later this year. Dramaworks will be running intensive Summer courses during the first week of August for students wishing to undertake LAMDA qualifications, as well as other workshops throughout the Summer.

A woodland paradise Blakewood stands in a delightful area of rural countryside about 2 miles north of Pulborough off a no through country lane. Blakewood is a charming and unusual property which has been developed by the present owners over many years since they purchased the woodland in 1984. A purchaser now has the opportunity to enjoy living in a comfortable and spacious house in a delightful setting whilst continuing the commercial activities in the woodland and the club house. At present the club house is used for weddings/receptions, private parties and a regular music club night. Although the property is not being sold as a going concern, any advance bookings will be available to the purchaser. The property is approached over a drive which leads past the club house
to an additional hardened area for parking and then to a spur off to the main house which sits in a wooded glade with its own generous parking and turning area. The house was built about 6 years ago. On the southern elevation is a very attractive balcony taking full advantage of the outlook through the trees towards open farmland to the south. Also on the south side is a substantial raised decked area which provides a superb extra dimension to the house. The accommodation provides 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, fine drawing room, substantial reception and dining hall, family room, kitchen/ breakfast room and utility room. There is also an enclosure leading across to the double garage. The main area of garden is formed by bluebell woodland which has been thinned to provide a view through to the adjoining farmland with an ornamental pond adjoining a terrace.
The club house built in 2001/2002 measures about 20m x 10m overall and provides office/reception area, food bar, foyer, ladies and gents toilets, kitchen, scullery, cellar and wine store, function/club room with raised stage, dance floor and large open fireplace with a corner bar. Adjoining is a paved terrace bordered by a low brick wall overlooking a lawned area and suitable for a framed marquee covering. On the first floor, a staircase rises from the reception area to a galleried landing area and a large clear span area over the whole building. Guide price £1.4 million.

Make yourself at home at Harper James The estate agents expands, opening an office with a difference in Horsham’s town centre
Estate Agent Harper James has opened a new branch in Horsham. The office, on South Street near the Carfax, has been renovated to create a space with a difference, where homebuyers and sellers can come in to talk to the team in a relaxed, informal environment. The Horsham branch means significant expansion for the company, which is keeping its other office, in Southwater. Partner, Ross Attwood, said: “We’re really pleased to have a base in the town centre. We’ve picked a convenient location and have created an office where people can come in to a comfortable lounge and talk to their agent. Buying or selling a property is not always the most fun thing to do. We aim to make our clients’ experience as enjoyable as possible.” Ross added that despite the growth of the company, customer service remains its top priority. He said: “We have always been focused on providing an individual service to a very high standard, and that won’t change. Rather than taking on a vast stock of properties which may languish for months on the internet, we operate on a one-to-one basis with customers, providing constant communication, marketing and monitoring until their property is sold.” Earlier this month, Harper James’ new office was officially opened by Cllr Claire Vickers, Chairman of
Horsham District Council. The interior of the old property has been refurbished and redecorated, mixing contemporary pieces with a more comfortable classic style. An original fireplace has been uncovered to give the feel of a lounge and large deed boxes, which are hundreds of years old, were found in the cellar and are
used for decorative purposes in the office. Ross added: “We took a lot of time choosing the right building, and I think we have a perfect balance of character, and a modern business. We wanted a place that was welcoming, warm and friendly, which reflects the ethos of our business.”

Price reduction for Victorian family home Local agents Munslow Bailey Gray have just been instructed to substantially reduce the asking price of this impressive 4 bedroom Victorian family home, in the heart of Broadbridge Heath Village to £299,995! Partner Ian Munslow commented “Our clients are realistic in the current challenging property market and have decided to take an aggressive pricing strategy, rather than aiming high in the hope of negotiating back”. Ian added “I fully support their strategy, from experience potential buyers will often track properties of interest and a substantial price reduction quite often is the trigger to selling, simply by the vendor demonstrating that they are realistic in the current climate”. Aside of the price reduction, this
really is a charming period property, boasting many original features including stripped floors, fireplaces and a hand built antique pine kitchen that forms the centre piece on the ground floor. Alongside of all of the character features the property also offers great family accommodation including: 4 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms, kitchen and separate utility room a downstairs cloakroom and modern first floor bathroom. Externally the garden is a real feature, offering a tranquil retreat from life’s hustle and bustle. There is also off street parking for three cars and a larger than average detached garage, which is a real bonus in Victorian properties like this! Since the price reduction interest levels have already increased and
an early viewing is recommended to avoid disappointment For an appointment to view, or if you have any questions relating to this charming property contact any of the partners at Munslow Bailey Gray on 01403 267530 or email them on sales@mbgproperties.com

Landlords and tenants face risks from unregulated agents With the recent report that two million more households could move into the rented sector over the next ten years, Leaders – the UK’s largest independent letting specialist – is reminding landlords and tenants to take care when choosing a letting agent because this sector, despite its growth, remains unregulated. Says Leaders’ managing director,
Paul Weller: “As the private rented sector grows, more people are using letting agents, unaware that there is no proper regulation governing them, and in particular over how they handle client money. Over the 28 years we have been in business, we have seen countless letting agents disappear with their clients’ rent and deposits, either by going bust or through blatant theft.” Mr Weller points to a number of recently reported cases, including that of Robert Stagg which was reported on the industry news site Letting Agent Today. Mr Stagg was sentenced earlier this month to two years in prison after apparently pocketing £140,000 worth of rents and deposits, which should have been paid to landlords or held in accordance with the Tenancy Deposit Protection Scheme. Another agent, Sharon Price of Price Properties, owed over £90,000 to landlords, tenants and contractors when her business went under, according to Letting Agent Today. She had not held client money separately, kept inadequate records and ran her
business in a ‘chaotic and shambolic’ way, despite describing herself as a competent and professional estate agent. She was fined just £3,000 by magistrates earlier this month. The most recent case is of Milton Keynes agent, Thomas and Company Rentals, the owners of which have disappeared owing thousands of pounds in rent and deposits, according to a report in the Milton Keynes Citizen. Landlords have been trying to contact the company for weeks to trace their missing rent, but with no success. The case is currently being investigated by trading standard officers at Milton Keynes Council. Says Mr Weller: “Under the current system, there was no legislation in place to prevent these individuals – and others like them - from acting as they have. Worse still, there is nothing to stop any of them re-entering the lettings industry and handling rents and deposits once again! These cases – just three among many that occur on a frequent basis - highlight the fundamental lack of controls on letting agents, which we want the public to be aware of so that they can
take steps to protect themselves.” Mr Weller’s advice to landlords and tenants is simple. You are only protected if you use an agent that is a member of a professional body such as ARLA, NAEA or RICS. These organisations are self-regulating and ensure that clients’ money is held in separate, ring-fenced accounts and properly protected. “But it’s not only about money,” says Mr Weller: “Your chosen agent should also be experienced, knowledgeable and competent to let and manage property, with a thorough understanding of the complex legislation surrounding letting. They should also have an in-depth knowledge of the local letting market; a firm grip on what is happening in the property market generally; and the ability to look after the needs of a range of clients efficiently and professionally. “Unfortunately, getting it wrong can have dire consequences for landlords, including huge legal expenses, loss of rent, financial penalties and even custodial sentences for not complying with legislation. For tenants it can literally be a matter of life
and death if legislation regarding the safety of the property and its contents is not complied with, for example gas, electrical and fire safety regulations. “When you consider the many potential risks to the public, it is shocking that any person or organisation can become a letting agent, with no training, qualifications or financial probity. Until there is proper regulation in place, unprofessional, unqualified and unethical agents will continue operate to the detriment of unwitting landlords and tenants. This is particularly worrying at a time when more and more people are turning to the private rented sector for their housing needs.” For advice you can trust on all aspects of letting and renting please contact your local Leaders branch or visit www.leaders.co.uk Leaders Horsham, 18a Market Square, Horsham RH12 1EU.

Great news landlords: new arrival, new offer Brock Taylor would like to welcome Clare Fleet to their growing lettings department as the new Senior Lettings Consultant, bringing eight years experience in letting and property management in the West Sussex, Hampshire and Surrey areas. Born and bred in Horsham, Clare started her career with a leading national letting agent, working hard to win the role of Senior and finishing 2010 in the Top Ten Negotiators. As an addition to the already strong team, who are renowned for their friendly, professional service, Clare said this, “as an independent agent Brock Taylor are offering an exciting opportunity to provide Landlords with a flexible, personalised and reasonably priced, quality service. “This is such a great time to let property, and to work for an agent who are so passionate about the local property market and to providing a service that is second to none, is really inspiring and refreshing”. Brock Taylor understand in the current economic climate that Landlords are questioning costs and whether they should instruct an agent at all.
According to lettingweb.com, ‘tenants are demanding a quality service and better quality of housing which has led many private landlords to seek the help of a letting agent to manage their properties and ensure sustained occupancy’, which means a stable and continued financial return. Bearing this in mind, and to coincide with the new arrival, Brock Taylor have a fantastic new promotion for all Landlords looking to rent their properties this summer. On offer is free management fees for the first three months of the tenancy; 3 for Free*.

If the financial side of letting your property is holding you back, this is an ideal opportunity to receive three full months of rental to get you started. Letting an investment property portfolio or simply your current home can be time-consuming, frustrating and often stressful. So, to make your life as simple as possible it’s vital to deal with experts in the area to minimise the stress and maximise the speedy occupation of your property. With an award-winning service, a fresh approach to marketing, strong local knowledge and an ever expanding portfolio of managed properties, Brock Taylor would love to welcome you as their newest Landlord. In order to take advantage of this great offer, which expires at the end of July, call on 01403 272022 to book a free no obligation valuation.

Q
I am buying a house with a mortgage, and everything has been going smoothly - until now. My solicitor tells me that the house I am buying is in a parish where there may be a liability to “contribute to any repairs of the chancel of the local church”. He asked the seller to pay for insurance against any future demands for money because of this, but the seller has refused. The solicitor says my lender will demand that I get this insurance and that it will cost at least £100. I am not very happy. What has this church got to do with me, and why should I pay anything?
A
The law that covers chancel repair liability emanates from the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the 16th century and imposed personal liability for the upkeep of the chancels of parish churches. The church where you are buying must have been in existence at that time. In many cases, however, the liability was commuted to tithes, which have since been redeemed or abolished, and many such parishes are no longer affected. In a recent case the courts confirmed that this law is still in force. It is possible to carry out a search of the relevant records at the Record Office at Kew, but this can take months. The insurance you mention should cover you (and future owners) should the Parochial Church Council request any contributions.
If your solicitor is acting for your lender, as well as for you, he is required by them to carry out all usual and prudent searches and to ensure that insurance is in place to cover potential risks. It is generally accepted that this is such a risk. You should ask your solicitor to confirm exactly what the proposed policy will cover, and if a cheaper premium is available. Should you have any questions, please email duncanjagger@harper-james.co.uk

Volkswagen Campervans available now for summer fun… assured Olli Nott Motors Reporter
olli@the-resident.co.uk
If you fancy getting away from it all this summer, it’s not too late to escape in a modern Volkswagen California campervan – with several models available immediately from the Van Centre network via the Volkswagen Assured Used programme. Current availability ranges from 2009 models to ex-demonstrator 2011 models with very low mileages. The California is unique, as Volkswagen is the only automotive manufacturer to produce its own campervan, meaning it has the same high quality and durability standards as its car and van ranges. It is car-like to drive and compact enough to use every day, yet quickly converts to a home from home with a luxury specification that includes a pop-up roof, kitchen, fridge, two double beds, heater, an outdoor table and two chairs (which neatly stow in the sliding side door and rear tailgate), and front seats that rotate to face the rear to create a lounge for four people. Volkswagen Assured Used vehicles
come with the peace of mind of a thorough multi-point inspection by fully trained Volkswagen mechanics, reconditioning to look and feel like new, history check, full valet and a year’s Volkswagen Roadside Assistance. In addition, every Assured Used vehicle also has a comprehensive warranty of a minimum of 12 months, or the balance of the three year warranty from new, while vehicles over two years old also have MOT test cover which pays for the cost of any items needing repair or replacement for the vehicle to pass the test. “The California is the latest in a legendary 60 year history of Volkswagen campervans, and the perfect vehicle for days out, holidays or a base for outdoor sports and hobbies,” said Simon Elliott, Director, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles. “If you snap up an Assured Used California now you can enjoy a better lifestyle this summer and for many more to come,” he continued. For full details of the Volkswagen Assured Used programme, or to search for the latest Assured Used California models available, visit www.volkswagen-vans.co.uk/ assured-used/van-search
The innovative BMW E-Scooter concept Space is becoming increasingly scarce in the major conurbation centres and traffic density is growing continuously. Political and social conditions are changing. All these factors coalesce in increasing demands in terms of private transportation. The concept vehicle BMW EScooter with electric drive provides an innovative look at changing urban mobility needs. While the currently available, purely electrically-powered scooters have been almost exclusively used inside towns and cities to date due to their performance and range, which makes them suitable for short distances only, the concept vehicle BMW E-Scooter offers a much broader spectrum of use. Since it was conceived as a futureoriented vehicle for commuting between urban areas and the city centre, therefore attracting funding from the German Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development, there were two main requirements for its development: dynamic figures comparable to those of a maxi scooter with a combustion engine and a high range in realistic conditions of use.
The BMW E-Scooter provides the necessary sustained output and maximum speed for safe and reliable overtaking on motorways and also when carrying two people. It is also easily capable of managing hill starts on steep slopes with a pillion passenger. The development study also has the necessary maximum output to be able to achieve acceleration figures within the important 0 - 60 km/h range, which are at the level of current maxi scooters powered by a 600 cc combustion engine. The high storage capacity of the
battery allows a daily driving range of over 100 kilometres. In this way, the scooter provides a long-term, zero-emissions urban and suburban travel option which is suitable for everyday use. Being a fan of concept vehicles, I’m intrigued to find out if BMW will actually put this to production – the benefits greatly outweigh the minor drawbacks – but ultimately it’ll be the consumers’ opinion that will be the deciding factor. Will we be seeing the E-Scooter on the streets of Horsham, or parked up outside the station? Time will tell!

Don’t mention the R-word here Matthew James Sport Editor

New Horsham manager Justin Luchford has told fans: Forget about relegation. The Hornets have suffered a player exodus since the departure of former boss John Maggs at the end of last season and will only pay expenses to their replacements. But Luchford was in bullish mood when he met supporters for a question-and-answer session in the bar at Gorings Mead on Wednesday. The former Faversham Town manager, 34, told them: “I don’t want to discuss relegation. I don’t want to hear that word. By hook or by crook, we ain’t taking this club down. “We are going to be the underdogs in every single game. Everyone is going to come down and expect to take three points, but they’re not going to. “Financially we are up against it. We’ve lost a few players, but I’ve managed to attract players before with no money and I’m sure I can do it again.
“The trial we had on Saturday (at Collyer’s) was very surprising. There were 40-odd there and I was expecting 39 who kicked with their knee, but we invited 10 or 11 back. Three or four have played at a decent standard. “I think we are about 1-100 to go down, but I’m not interested in that. If we start brightly and get a couple of players on board, people might say ‘hang on a minute, it can’t be that bad down there’. “I’m not going to say we’re going to play like Barcelona and Arsenal, because we’re not good enough to do that, but we will play football when the situation allows. We’ve got to play football in the right areas. “We will create more chances than any other team in this league. I really believe that. The way we play, we will get set-pieces but we won’t concede set-pieces. We will get the ball in the box more than any of our opponents if we play the game right. “One of the things I’m very strong on and very harsh on is discipline. We can’t afford players to be suspended. If we get anything for dissent, they’re going to be hugely fined. I say ‘hugely’
Justin Luchford receives a cheque from the Horsham Independent Supporters Club (HISC)

(laughter from supporters). They’re going to get fined a week’s expenses. “I won’t take any energy sappers. I won’t take anyone who is not fully committed. There are players in this league on £700 or £800 a week, full time – that’s what we’re up against. “We’ve all got to be in this together. Every single player who puts on a
Horsham shirt this season will be up for it, because if they’re not they’ll be off after 10 minutes. “If the management team and the club are going to be successful, we all need to be together, on and off the pitch. I’m happy to have a beer with you afterwards, especially if you’re buying!”

Gymnasts go to Southwater, Infinity and beyond Infinity Gymnastics held their annual schools and club competition at Southwater Leisure Centre. More than 80 gymnasts completed a short floor routine and a vault activity in year/age groups. Gymnasts of all abilities worked
with their coaches to compete the elements they enjoyed and were proud of. Medals were awarded for each apparatus and overall. Kirstine Dawson, director and head coach, said: “For many gymnasts, this
was their first competition. “With the encouragement from family, friends and fellow group members, every gymnast performed fantastically and enjoyed the afternoon.” Infinity Gymnastics run classes in
local schools, eight of which participated in the schools competition held in the morning. Infinity also run a club from Southwater Leisure Centre and these members took part in the club competition in the afternoon.
Sport in Brief Football John Maggs’ Horsham Select XI will face Brighton and Hove Albion’s firstteam squad at Worthing on Wednesday (7.45pm). The former Hornets manager said: “I’m pleased to say that Gus Poyet has named the entire first-team squad for the game. It’s going to create a lot of interest and I’m hoping for a large crowd. My thanks go to Gus.” The Horsham team will include recently departed players such as Gary Charman (Eastbourne Borough) and Anthony Storey (Tonbridge Angels) plus stars of the 2007 FA Cup run including Simon Austin, Nigel Brake, Lee Carney, Jacob Mingle, Stuart Myall and Carl Rook. Tickets are £10 for adults, £5 for seniors and under-16s. They will be available on the gate but can be bought in advance from Horsham FC, Worthing FC, Solo Café at Horsham railway station, M&J News in East Street and B52’s in Piries Place.
Tennis Horsham Tennis Club will hold an open day at Horsham Sports Club, Cricketfield Road, next Saturday, July 16. Potential players of any age and ability are invited to find out what the club has to offer. LTA-accredited coaches will offer free coaching for six to eight-yearolds (9-10am), nine to 11-year-olds (10-11am) and 12 to 16-year-olds (11am to midday). From midday to 4pm, adults can play the sport or test their serve on a speed gun. Barbecue food will be available throughout the day. Head coach Glyn Jukes said: “Don’t worry if you don’t have a racket – we will have some for you to borrow or try if you want to buy. Just wear suitable footwear and have some fun.” Phone him on 07789 725333 or email glynjukes@hotmail.com
Youth Athletics Horsham Blue Star’s youngsters enjoyed success in the county U13 championships at Withdean. Catriona Jamieson, the smallest girl in the competition, won the javelin with 25.21m while Emma Garry won the shot (8.42m) and discus (19.10m). Megan Allerton was third in the 1,200m (4.15.29) and Caroline Wirth impressed in the 800m heats (2.48.84). The boys found themselves up against some physically strong boys but achieved three bronze medals – Zac Massey in the long jump (4.27m), Tom Mackman in the 800m (2.24.11) and Connor Dearden in the 1,200m (4.17.2). Lenaya Page just missed out on a medal in the U11 Quadkids competition, in which each youngster competed in four events.

Horsham and Eastbourne fought out a fluctuating game, leaving both sides feeling they might have won. After 30 from John Burroughs and a highly assured 38 from Will Beer, until he was bowled round his legs, Horsham slipped to a perilous 115-6 by the 30th over. A cameo from Craig Gallagher and a swashbuckling 58 from Matt Henry rescued the situation and picked up the momentum. Then an enterprising partnership between Sam Cushing (40 not out) and Sam Bell (20 not out) ensured a challenging 255-8 when Horsham declared with one over of their allocation remaining. Former Sussex and England paceman Ed Giddins was the pick of the bowlers with 3-43. Eastbourne were 45-1 after 10 overs but lost another wicket without addition and an excellent catch by Cushing reduced them to 55-3. Enter former Sussex captain Alan Wells, making his debut for Eastbourne. Wells, 50 in October, belied the passing years, quickly confirming his enduring pedigree with a classy boundary. The score progressed steadily with a century stand until Horsham captured four wickets in as many overs, including the prized scalps of Angus Stewart (59) and Wells (48).
Michael Munday claimed the latter, thanks to a second smart stumping by Bell. With Horsham’s two quality spinners operating on a turning pitch, the task proved too demanding for Eastbourne’s suspect batting. At 170-8 with nine overs remaining, Horsham pressed for victory. Runs dried up as fielders crowded the bat, but Eastbourne held firm and finished well short. Spinners Munday (3-37) and Beer (3-43) bowled 32 frugal overs between them as, for the second week running, Horsham were not quite able to clinch a win. Horsham (260-6) were frustrated again on Sunday as the Sussex Cricket Board Development XI (200-7) earned a draw. James Johnson (68), Gallagher (54), Henry (49) and Burroughs (46) were the principal scorers. Matt Henry (3-61) struck twice to leave the Development XI at 8-2 before a stand of 95. Munday took 4-58. Roffey were slightly relieved to draw at East Grinstead, for whom Sussex’s Will Adkin scored 83 and Matt Sugg 77. Luke Barnard claimed 4-96. Roffey quickly subsided to 12-3, but skipper Mike Norris’ 54 enabled

Ton for Norris on Roffey’s great day Martin Read Cricket
In front of a large and enthusiastic crowd, a magnificent win took Roffey into the last 16 of the National Knockout Cup. The Spencer Club from South West London were founded by the great grand uncle of Diana, Princess of
Wales, and an impressive list of their players became county and international cricketers. But this did not faze Roffey, whose tight bowling and tigerish fielding reduced Spencer to 137-7. The late introduction of Danny O’Shea, with a blistering 71 not out off 50 balls, enabled Spencer to reach respectability in their 45 overs. O’Shea struck five towering sixes,
including one which cleared a mature oak tree and another which sailed over a house beyond the ground. The Fleming brothers, Josh and George, finished with 3-44 and 2-42. The outfield was lightning fast and at the interval Roffey skipper Mike Norris said he would have wanted at least 275 had they batted first. Roffey batted enterprisingly throughout, never letting themselves
get bogged down. They were 89-4 after a direct hit runout and two catches in the deep, but a fifth-wicket partnership of 118 ensured the win. George Fleming’s 35 was a major contribution, but the day belonged to Norris whose superb, clinical 106 was as good a century as will be seen all Summer. He was elated by the win and

Hundreds of years at Henfield Martin Read Cricket
Henfield Cricket Club was founded in 1771, six years before the MCC. The club started playing regularly then, but local diarist Thomas Marchant described a Henfield match in 1719 and several other games in that era. Henfield has had an extraordinary influence on the development of cricket. From its inception, Henfield played against the top teams from Sussex and Surrey and invariably had several county players in the side. On one occasion, against Hampshire, the Henfield team contained 10 Sussex players and could even afford to offer the opposition the services of an outstanding bowler. These important early matches drew in large crowds – in the thousands. Henfield produced several Sussex captains and an England player, Henry Charlwood. Born in Horsham and at one time living in South Street, Charlwood played in the first Test match against Australia, at Melbourne in 1877, and toured abroad in
WG Grace’s team. John Wisden, founder of the cricketer’s bible, played for Henfield too. The ground, on the common, is certainly one of the oldest still used anywhere in the world, but Henfield is a progressive, innovative club, entitled to be optimistic about the future. Three Henfield teams play in divisions of the Sussex Cricket League West, two Sunday sides play friendlies and there are a midweek team, a Development XI, a ladies team and six colts sides in different age groups competing in league matches. Realising the potential of 20/20 cricket, the club organises the Henfield Cup, sponsored by the White Hart pub in the village, with midweek matches between local clubs eager to take up the challenge. Often 70 juniors attend coaching on Monday evenings and some impressive young players – boys and girls – are emerging, exempified by Jack Parsons who shone on the England U19 tour of Sri Lanka. Henfield believe in identifying and capturing talent young – their U7 group train on Sunday mornings. The dedication to youth development has earned Henfield much-coveted
Clubmark and Focus Club status. Such an enormous level of activity necessitates a veritable army of willing volunteers – and use of another ground, at Sayers Common. Those interested are encouraged by the club to take coaching or umpiring courses. Henfield chairman David Jemmett has been a member for more than 30 years. He still relishes an occasional game and says: “It is a privilege to be involved with cricket at Henfield. “The club is constantly developing – we’ve just completed some ground improvements, the colts section is thriving and women’s cricket is really taking off too. It’s all very exciting!” Continuity is essential at every club and many families have made major contributions at Henfield down the years, including six generations of Thorns who have played for the club, starting in 1838 and still continuing. The club’s extraordinarily comprehensive website celebrates the number of genuinely top-quality cricketers contributing major performances, many having exceptionally lengthy playing careers at Henfield. One such is David Silverson. In an amazing 1,110 games for the first team he amassed 20,027 runs (both
club records), took 1,213 wickets and held 452 catches. And, having first played in 1960, he is still enjoying cricket at Henfield. A wide range of social events are organised by the committee, cementing Henfield as a good, friendly, family-orientated village club, with a sizeable majority of members living locally or having strong connections with the area. The traditional pavilion complements the most pleasant tree-lined ground, tirelessly cared for by groundsmen Nick Blake (club treasurer) and Martin Payne, both stalwart players. It is not surprising that visiting teams enjoy coming to Henfield. The attractiveness of the venue is regularly confirmed by the ring of spectators’ cars overlooking the pitch on cricket days. Anyone wishing to join Henfield as a player, or to assist with activities, is invited to contact David Jemmett (01273 492420) and will receive a warm welcome. At 6pm today (Friday) Henfield are delighted to be playing on their own ground as finalists in the local 20/20 Cup.
Having chosen to bat, Pulborough must have feared the worst when captain Rohit Jagota was bowled by the accurate Matthew Wood (4-61) for only five. But Tom Crump (55) and Sachin Chaudhury (35) contributed to a total of 251-9, enabling Pulborough to declare after 55 overs. Patrick Spencer and Chris Atherton, brother of former England captain Mike, took two wickets each.
Max Barson did the damage with 7-47 as Brighton and Hove subsided to 167 all out, despite 44 from former Sussex CCC press officer Tim Jarvis. Struan Cameron captured the key wickets of Spencer and Jarvis, but Atherton and Jordan Rollings threatened to spoil Pulborough’s party before Barson returned to bowl them both. This was a much better performance by Pulborough and the
celebrations reflected their relief after weeks of struggle in the highest tier of Sussex cricket. Even more encouraging, they achieved this win without a significant contribution from their captain or overseas player. Pulborough have no time to rest on their laurels as they go to high-flying Preston Nomads tomorrow (Saturday).
Pulborough enjoy a shock victory Cricket
It has been a long time coming – 11 matches or more than 300 years – but Pulborough have finally won a match in the Sussex Premier League. They are still threatened by relegation, but their 84-run win at Brighton and Hove was as memorable as it was unexpected.
Sport in Brief Cricket Nuthurst were unbeaten in their tour of Cheltenham. Rain forced an abandonment with Nuthurst 65-1 in reply to Aston Ingham’s 215-7. Unfortunately for the vicar, the fete was also abandoned – but not before the touring side won various items in the tombola. Nuthurst recovered from 13-3 to reach 166-4 in a draw against Kempsford (111-7), thanks to Jeff McKenna (62 not out), Raggy Singh (44) and Adrian Peckover (34). A first-wicket partnership of 132 between Guy Ekins (89) and Bob Samways (72) helped Nuthurst reach 271-6 in a 40-over match against Welford Park. Jeff McKenna ripped the heart out of Park’s top order and Graham Prior took three wickets in four balls as Park were all out for 168.
Youth Cricket Roffey U10 travelled to Billingshurst in the MKK Cup (North) and qualified for the finals in September by winning all four matches – against Three Bridges, Horsham, Billingshurst and Horsham Trinity. Roffey U9 beat West Chiltington U9 by 107 runs in the IDentilam Colts League, thanks partly to Josh Dance’s 2-1 and 29. Emily Spooner took wickets with two consecutive balls. Roffey U9 followed up by beating Barns Green U9 by 125 runs. Jamie Atkins made 29 and Dance 27 before Tom Colbran (4-5) took three wickets in one over. Billingshurst U16 (45-1) beat Broadbridge Heath U16 (41) by nine wickets. Ryan Kirkland bowled very tightly, but the wickets were shared by Dan MacDonald (2-1), Connor O’Brien (26), Tim Weston (2-8), Rob Weston (211) and Danny Kirkland (1-6). Simon Pearce made 29 not out.
