They say a picture paints a thousand words – and that is certainly true of these stunning images from Japan.

West Sussex firefighters, including four from Horsham district, are back home after searching for survivors of the devastating earthquake and tsunami.

Chris Kemp, from Horsham, Mick Lewin and St John Stanley, both from Billingshurst, and Peter Thorpe-Hincks, from Steyning, were thrust into a situation most of us could hardly comprehend.

WHIBLEYS JEWELLERY & FINE ART

Cllr Pete Bradbury, county council Cabinet member for public protection, said: “West Sussex will be proud to have a team of firefighters who can respond to international disasters as well as providing specialist rescue cover at home.

“The situation facing people in parts of Japan is pretty desperate, but our firefighters have been able to offer much-needed support. They have done a professional job in extremely difficult circumstances.”

An eerie experience for our firefighters in Japan Beverley Pannell News Reporter the-resident.co.uk

Having lived in Horsham for more than 20 years, I am generally surprised when I learn something new about the town.

This week I not only discovered that the UK has an International Search and Rescue (ISAR) Team but that members of this group from Horsham district have been in Japan helping with the search and rescue mission.

Six West Sussex firefighters and members of the UK ISAR team returned home on Saturday after a week searching for survivors of the earthquake and tsunami, accounting for missing people and reuniting families.

They included Chris Kemp, from Horsham, Mick Lewin and St John Stanley, both from Billingshurst, and Peter Thorpe-Hincks, from Steyning.

The team flew to the US military air base in Misawa before moving on to Ofunato and then Kamaishi.

Mr Stanley described the “hugely devastating, desperate scenes of the disaster”, which simply could not be conveyed sufficiently via video and photographs.

The UK ISAR team was also involved in projects after the hurricane in Haiti. There the ruin of communities was more visible because people

were trying to rebuild their homes or construct temporary shelter.

In Japan, homes have been washed away. There is nothing left to even begin putting back together. And the weather conditions are so extreme that people have had to move away and take shelter elsewhere.

The UK team was met with eerie scenes in what had previously been bustling towns.

There has been controversy about the Japanese authorities’ handling of the disaster relief, with some foreign aid workers turned away because they lacked the appropriate paperwork. But Mr Stanley spoke of the “fantastic” response of the authorities who, while stringent with who they allowed into the country, were well organised and coordinated.

Our firefighters worked alongside teams from Los Angeles and Fairfax, Virginia, searching specific sites for survivors and bodies which were passed to the Japanese police for identification and for families to be informed.

Twelve bodies were found. No survivors were discovered, but the team from West Sussex was able to provide much-needed support to the Japanese emergency services.

The fire service and everyone in West Sussex should be proud that we have such expertise available in our emergency services, who are able to assist around the world.

With such extensive training and experience, they can surely handle anything that Horsham throws at them.

Horsham man, 71, is jailed for abusing girl A wrestling child molester has been jailed for three-and-a-half years after “ruining a little girl’s childhood” by subjecting her to abuse.

Truro Crown Court heard 71-yearold Derek Palmer, who appeared infirm as he clutched a stick, subjected an innocent young girl to “sustained abuse”.

Mr Justice Neil Butterfield heard Palmer, who lived in Erica Way, Horsham, before being jailed, used to call the ordeal he put the little girl through “The Big Pinch”.

A ‘pinch’ is a sports term which in wrestling refers to a ‘pinch grip’, where the fingers are on one side of an object and the thumb is on the other.

Prosecutor Julia Cox told the court: “He would simulate sex with her fully clothed. It was like wrestling, the girl remembered.

“She was nine and feared she would get pregnant, so she harmed herself by throwing herself against a

metal bed.

“It was only when she started having sex education at school that she realised something was wrong and she wanted him to stop.

“He told her not to tell anyone because he would go to prison.”

The court heard Palmer also made the little girl go through the act of relieving him sexually when he asked her for a cuddle.

Mr Butterfield said Palmer had “ruined this little girl’s childhood” and told him: “You’ve admitted 11 offences of sexually abusing a young girl.

“By the time she was seven you were indecently assaulting her. You put your hands on her private parts.

You put your hands inside her underwear and touched her.

“She was too frightened to tell anyone what you were doing to her in case she was not believed.”

The judge said Palmer’s failing health and the fact that he had not been convicted of any other crimes

Derek Palmer, of Erica Way, Horsham

were in his favour.

But he concluded: “Far and away the most important thing in your favour is that you pleaded guilty. Everybody knows now that you were doing these horrid things to her.

“Whatever doubts people may have had as to whether she was telling the truth, those doubts are now gone.”

Town centres ‘under threat’ Allowing firms to convert commercial property into private dwellings without planning permission could destroy the centre of towns such as Horsham.

That was the warning by Cllr David Holmes, leader of the Liberal Democrats on Horsham District Council, as the government announced it would consult on the proposal.

Ministers believe the change could create up to 250,000 extra houses or flats, while also cutting red tape, but Cllr Holmes told The Resident: “This takes what happens within towns out of local democratic control.

“There is huge pressure by property owners to convert commercial property into residential. Although in some cases this is a good idea, whether or not a specific case is appropriate must be determined by the local authority.

“While more homes are needed, it will be a death blow to our town centres if we lose employment within the hearts of our towns.

“Town centre employment compared to employment elsewhere is very attractive, and sustainable for many people since it can easily be reached by walking, cycling or public transport.

“If employment is to be increasingly located out of town, more car use will be necessary and use of town centre retail will fall.

“We do currently have many very good and attractive empty offices, but as the economy recovers some of these will be needed.

“As a managing director, I relocated a company out of central London to Dorking town centre, to an office that had been empty for several years.

It was a huge success in terms of company growth, staff retention and quality of life.”

Horsham MP Francis Maude said: “A formal consultation paper is to be published shortly by the Department for Communities and Local Government.

“This will provide an opportunity for careful consideration of the potential reforms to help build more homes on brownfield sites and to support local growth.”

War of words over social care cuts Matthew James News Editor

matthew@the-resident.co.uk

The Liberal Democrats have condemned a Conservative councillor over his decision to change the eligibility criteria for adults with social care needs.

Cllr Peter Catchpole, county council Cabinet member for adults’ services, has decided the council should no longer provide for moderate needs so it will focus on substantial and critical needs from next Friday, April 1.

All recipients of adult social care will be reassessed. Any changes to the services or funds received by an individual will take effect over a period consistent with their needs and abilities.

The change will save the council £2.2 million in 2011-12 and £4.3 million in 2012-13.

A total of £750,000 will be reinvested in the voluntary sector each year, towards community development and activities that promote wellbeing and other alternative services.

This investment will be further supported through health and wellbeing hubs from September.

Cllr Catchpole said: “Services will be in place for those directly affected by this decision, including the health and wellbeing hubs that will provide a central point of contact for information and advice, and a database of

what’s available locally.

“I am fully aware of the strength of feeling towards the proposed changes. But the decision has to be seen against the backdrop of the county council receiving one of the lowest grant settlements from the government for the past nine years.

“The financial position is the worst we have ever faced, with a need to save £79 million as a council over the next three years.”

Cllr Morwen Millson, leader of the Liberal Democrats on the county council, told The Resident: “Despite the crocodile tears in his press statement, Peter Catchpole has failed to respond positively to the views of the council’s scrutiny committee and concerned residents.

I am surprised at the ‘Liberal Democrats for causing unnecessary anxiety

’

“This decision will cause a great deal of worry and hardship to hundreds of West Sussex residents who need help with tasks such as preparing a meal or taking a shower. This support will no longer be offered by the county council.”

Cllr Bob Smytherman, Lib Dem adult services spokesman, said: “We will continue to support the campaigners from the ‘Don’t cut us out’ campaign in their quest for a judicial review.

“We would encourage members of the public who are concerned at this decision to keep writing to the Cabinet member and to the leader of the council to express their concerns.”

Cllr Smytherman said Cllr Catchpole’s decision came after more than 2,000 consultation responses, 76 per cent of which were against the proposal to provide services only to people with substantial or critical needs.

He added: “The Conservatives claim cuts must be made over three years. This is not true – the savings could be spread over four years, the

Tories have chosen to make them over three.

“Meanwhile they are pouring money into reserves, while cutting vital services to vulnerable individuals.”

Cllr Catchpole responded: “I have already put on record that this is the most difficult decision I have been required to make in all my time in public office.

“I have tried to be as exhaustive as possible in taking all issues raised into account and responding to the concerns raised by the adults’ services select committee.

“The report setting out my decision clearly showed how I have addressed the representations made.

“In particular I was reassured that prevention and wellbeing services will be in place by September, together with the associated funding.

“I was also reassured that the voluntary and community sector has been closely involved and well represented in this work and that there is widespread willingness from partners and voluntary groups to develop and expand community-based services.

“We will also be reinvesting a further £1 million towards this.

“I am aware of the strength of feeling towards the proposed changes among those who will be affected.

“In West Sussex we have an everincreasing number of people with high-level and complex needs, which increases the pressure on services at the same time as we face the worst financial position the county council has ever had to deal with.

“It is because of this unprecedented situation that the county council has to make such difficult decisions.

“Despite this poor financial position, West Sussex County Council will be one of the last councils to set its threshold at substantial, which brings us into line with nearly 80 per cent of other English authorities.

“I am surprised at the Liberal Democrats for causing unnecessary anxiety among vulnerable people by making claims that they will be left without essential support.

“Most people who currently receive services have some substantial needs, which will continue to be

funded.

“No changes will take place until a thorough reassessment by social care staff, putting service users and their families at the centre of the process, has taken place.

“Where necessary, there will be a transition period to enable people to adapt to changes.

“The assessment will take into account whether a person’s situation is likely to quickly deteriorate. If so, it is probable that the person will continue to receive support from the county council.

“Support for ‘promoting independence’ will also be available through a range of services such as Regaining Independence, Telecare, Community Equipment and Intermediate Care.

“It is wrong to claim that we are ‘pouring money into reserves’. West Sussex County Council has put aside only the necessary funds prudent to guard against risks to the community.

“In leading public services through such difficult times, difficult decisions have to be made. However I must act on the reassurances given to me that measures are in place to support the concerns that have been raised.”

Comedian rails against Southern Newsagent John O’Sullivan has vowed to chain himself to railings if railway bosses press on with their plan to force him out.

Southern have told Mr O’Sullivan he must vacate the newsagent’s at Horsham station on Tuesday, ahead of major improvement work at the station from May. The comedian says his seven staff – one full-time, six part-time – should be allowed to work there until the end of April, but he has refused to sign a new tenancy agreement because he believes the terms are onesided and mean a national company could take over.

He said: “The final straw was on Wednesday when they sent two recorded deliveries saying if I didn’t sign I would be chucked out on Tuesday.

“I have to bid for my own shop, where I’ve been for six years, when the station closes for renovation.

They’re spending all that money on the place so they’re not going to want a little, measly independent newsagent – they’re going to go with the big boys.

“I will chain myself to the railings in the shop on Tuesday unless they come back and say I can stay until the end of April.”

A spokesman for Southern said: “As part of the refurbishment, the three retail units at the station will be removed.

“The tenants have been given the appropriate notice that they will not be able to continue their activities as a matter of course when the new retail units are ready for use.

“Each tenant will be given the opportunity to tender for a retail space.”

I’ve been running about 30 miles a week and I’ve been on a treadmill at minus 21°C in a climate chamber at Chichester University. I wanted to choose a local charity and I’ve heard so many good reports about how lovely they are at St Catherine’s.”

See www.justgiving.com/CliveHancocks to support the fundraising trek from just outside Glasgow to Fort William.

Sue Bradford is set to swap the streets of Horsham for the ice of the North Pole by attempting a marathon in temperatures as low as minus 30°C. The 44-year-old mum of three, of Highlands Road, Horsham, is one of only 25 people who will take part in the 26.2-mile trek, the only certified marathon run entirely on water.

Greener pupils

About three-quarters of West Sussex pupils are choosing to get to school by walking, cycling or other ‘green’ methods of transport.

Only one in four children is driven to school, according to figures released by the National School Census.

The findings show a trend towards sustainable travel compared to previous years, with a 5.5 per cent reduction in car use for school journeys over the last five years.

Cllr Lionel Barnard, deputy leader of West Sussex County Council, said: “Each day around 5,000 fewer pupils are travelling to school by car than they were five years ago.

“Over the course of a year, that is approximately one million fewer car journeys being made to and from schools in West Sussex. This means less congestion and less pollution at the school gates.

“I would like to say thank you and well done to all the schools, children and parents that have helped us achieve this.”

Making a difference to Horsham

Patrick Clouden, Dan Kent, Michael Potter and Luke Sparling

Forest figure it out Four pupils from The Forest School won the South East round of the UK Mathematics Challenge.

Dan Kent, 14, Luke Sparling, 14, Michael Potter, 13, and Patrick Clouden, 12, beat teams from schools including Millais, Tanbridge House, Christ’s Hospital, Lancing College and Hurstpierpoint.

They will compete in the national round of the competition, organised by the UK Mathematics Trust, in London on June 20.

Luke said: “It was a good day. We will take part in some intensive coaching before the next round, where we hope to do as well.”

Mark Sanderson, subject team leader, said: “We are very proud of our mathematics success here at Forest.

“Not only have these younger pupils achieved success in the competition, a number of our Year 11 pupils have already sat their GCSE maths exams with fantastic results.”

Nearly 10 per cent of the year group have already achieved an A* grade at GCSE and nearly 21 per cent have already gained an A/A* in the subject.

Year 11 pupil Will Earley, 15,

attained 99 out of 100 in the first module of his A Level.

Headteacher Siobhan Denning said: “I am extremely proud of Will and all the boys who have achieved such success in their mathematics studies.

“It is fantastic to see our pupils achieving their absolute best. Credit must go to the boys for their hard work and dedication and to our staff for their commitment and support.”

Making a Difference has funded a weekend conference for a member of the Horsham Fibromyalgia Group and helped the Horsham Cognitive Help and Therapy Group, which supports people with early to mid-stage dementia or cognitive impairment.

Rotary Club member John Le Rossignol said: “Funding reductions have hit it very hard, despite being regarded as the best group in West Sussex for providing this much-needed help.

“Making a Difference has donated £250, but the group needs more.

Please help them to stay in our

community before it’s too late.”

The Queen Elizabeth II School in Horsham, which helps pupils with learning difficulties, needs electronic chair scales with a BMI function, costing £582.

Alternatively, write to the Rotary Club of Horsham, Birkdale, Greens Lane, Mannings Heath RH13 6JW. Donations can be made by cheque, preferably with Gift Aid authorisation, to the same address. Cheques should be made payable to “Rotary Club of Horsham Making a Difference”.

Fun for a reason Toddlers at Bobtails Montessori Nursery School, Adversane, enjoyed a week of fundraising for Comic Relief.

Principal Pat West said: “We wanted even the youngest children to feel part of the nationwide event and that meant having fun.”

Teachers and staff organised a series of fun fancy-dress days for the 32 children.

Each day brought a new theme, so the children came to school in pyjamas, as pirates and princesses, with a hat and finally with a favourite bear.

Staff dressed up too and the children enjoyed a host of silly games.

The Rotary Club of Horsham has received 16 requests for help since launching its Making a Difference campaign in The Resident on February 18.

Most are from organisations, but the club also welcomes requests from individuals where a little help would make a lot of difference.

In conjunction with Horsham Matters, the Rotary Club has provided urgently needed furniture to a young local family.

It has also agreed to organise and run a fundraising quiz for You Can Do It, which arranges sports and art courses for children.

New reservoir will help in droughts A scheme to ensure Sussex customers have enough water, particularly during droughts, has been officially opened by Nick Herbert MP. The £10 million project at Hardham, near Pulborough, includes a reservoir, a pumping station at Hardham Church Farm and a 1.8km pipeline.

It creates a new source able to provide 10 million litres of water per day in the summer, enough for the daily needs of a town the size of Horsham.

Water will be drawn from the River Arun at its tidal point, during the sixhour ebb of the tide. It will be stored in the new reservoir and pumped to Hardham Water Supply Works where it will be treated.

Mr Herbert joined Southern Water chief executive Matthew Wright and representatives from West Sussex County Council, RSPB South East and Pulborough Parish Council at the treatment works.

The MP for Arundel and South Downs, who unveiled a plaque, said: “I was delighted to open this new facility which will help to ensure that the people of West Sussex are supplied with water.

“Having been very concerned about shortage of supplies a few years ago in the drought, I am pleased to see future demands being addressed.

“Pumping out of rivers can’t be the only remedy. Meters, water conservation measures and innovative ways to share water resources are the solutions of the future.

“But this abstraction has been approved by the Environment Agency,

so I hope it will not be damaging to the Arun Valley’s important wetlands and wildlife, which must be conserved.”

Meyrick Gough, of Southern Water, said: “This area of Sussex has been identified as water-stressed, with demand for water predicted to exceed supply at times. This new water source will help us deal with this

issue.

“This scheme was selected after five years of environmental surveys, investigations and regular consultations with the environmental regulators, the Environment Agency and Natural England.

“The original location of the proposed abstraction was moved to a more favourable location in the

tidal part of the River Arun in order to minimise any potential impacts on the environment.

“Southern Water will continue to monitor the local aquatic environment as part of our continued commitment to sustainable abstractions.”

The year-long work was carried out by Barhale Trant Utilities on behalf of Southern Water.

News in Brief Horsing around for a good cause Sara and Clive Blunden, of the Royal Oak, Friday Street, Rusper, will raise money for St Catherine’s Hospice through a pantomime horse race day on Saturday, April 9.

Since 2007 the publicans have helped raise more than £20,000 towards end-of-life care for patients and their loved ones.

Sara said: “St Catherine’s Hospice is a great cause. Our race day is a really fun way of generating interest and raising much-needed funds.

“We have a tug-of-war kicking off proceedings at 10.30am and lunch will be available from midday, so we’d encourage people to get down early and stay for the day.”

Barbara Dryden, community fundraiser for St Catherine’s Hospice, said: “We’d like to thank Clive and Sara and hope the ground is good for all those racing!”

Get set for Olympics

Nick Herbert MP (left) and Matthew Wright, chief executive of Southern Water, raise a toast with a glass of tap water

Tanbridge House School, Horsham, is one of 10 West Sussex schools to have signed up so far for Get Set, an education programme based around the 2012 Olympic Games.

Cllr Deborah Urquhart, county council Cabinet member for environment and economy, said: “It is very good news that so many schools are embracing the London 2012 education programme and its free learning resources.

“Sport and physical education are not the only subjects featured – there are many cross-curricular resources, from mathematics to languages. We would like all our schools to register to take advantage of what is on offer.”

Cllr Peter Griffiths, Cabinet member for education and schools, said: “I’m encouraging more schools to join the Get Set network.

“By doing so they will receive rewards and recognition from London 2012, including the chance to win exclusive tickets for pupils.”

A new yellow peril?

Proposals for double yellow lines in London Road and New Place Road, Pulborough, will be discussed next week.

Cllr Frank Wilkinson, chairman of Chanctonbury county local committee, said: “The proposals aim to solve the problem of vehicles parking on New Place Road near the junction with the A29 London Road.

“Access is required at all times as the main road is a bus route. Parking impacts on the safe turning of traffic.”

The meeting will be held at West Chiltington Community School, East Street, from 7pm on Wednesday, March 30.

Why it’s all action at local nature reserve Neil Henry Warnham Local Nature Reserve

rare – and is a regular stopover for migrating species from far away.

The reserve occupies about 92 acres in north-west Horsham and has a rich mix of different habitats, including open water, reedbeds, marshland, meadow, hedgerow and both broad-leafed and coniferous woodland.

Formerly part of the Warnham Estate, it was transferred by the Lucas family to Horsham District Council in 1988 and is run by a small and enthusiastic team from the leisure services department.

The adjacent mill, now used as offices and not open to the public, is still owned by the Lucas family.

Since the council’s team is also responsible for several other sites in the district, the Friends group was set up in October 2007 specifically to raise awareness of the reserve and assist the wardens with visitors, events and special projects.

Between April and September, at weekends and public holidays, the Friends will be manning a welcome desk and information point, just inside the entrance.

To date, the Friends’ successes, with the help of National Lottery funding, include live camera action, a Stag Beetle Loggery and an allpurpose boot scraper. Watch out for

The main trails are well surfaced and there is an extensive boardwalk, giving good access for all.

Visitors can get close up to the birds and other wildlife at either of the two hides and at the bird feeding station.

Dragonflies, damselflies, butterflies and other interesting insects abound, especially during the summer months.

Although sightings can never be guaranteed, recent visitors have included a Little Egret, Garganey and Mandarin (ducks).

The swans are nesting on the island and at least three Blue Tit families are established in the camera nest-boxes.

Reed Warblers and the rarer Cetti’s Warbler have both been seen and heard. Brimstone, Comma, Peacock and Orange Tip butterflies are about.

Primroses, bluebells and many other wildflowers are blooming.

The whole place is alive with the sounds and colours of Spring. There is always something of interest throughout the year to be captured on your photographs.

The Resident wants to hear from you.

Thanks from RSPB

It was with huge regret that I learnt about Novartis’ proposals for their Horsham site (The Resident, March 18).

Novartis is a very significant local employer and this is going to affect a lot of people, their families and our local economy I fully appreciate how devastating this news will be for those affected, who find themselves in a period of very real uncertainty.

I was relieved to hear that the ground-breaking respiratory research will be remaining in Horsham and I am pleased that Novartis have confirmed they are continuing to invest in the UK as one of their major bases.

Their proposals for Horsham, while deeply damaging for us locally, are part of the company’s global restructuring.

On behalf of the RSPB, I would like to say a big thank you. This is aimed at all readers of The Resident who signed the RSPB’s recent Letter to the Future.

They were among 355,773 people who signed a letter to the government, asking for help to save our natural world.

‘Saving nature’ may sound like a huge undertaking. But the thought of future generations not hearing a cheeky house sparrow cheeping, or having the opportunity to see creatures like polar bears and tigers, is terribly sad.

It’s an incredibly challenging time for the environment with widespread budget cuts but it’s vital that governments invest in a healthy economy and a healthy environment.

As well as protecting jobs, the RSPB wants them to tackle climate change and protect our seas, countryside and wildlife.

And it’s fantastic that so many of your readers showed that they too care deeply about nature by signing up to the letter asking for smart spending decisions.

Their efforts are greatly appreciated and already they’ve helped with tangible successes such as fending off cuts to environmental schemes that support farmland birds.

And we’re not stopping here. The RSPB has just launched its biggest campaign to date, Stepping Up for Nature. It’s about all of us taking small steps to help save nature.

Francis Maude MP, Horsham (Con)

I didn’t imagine it here My initial reaction was of disbelief at the scale of job losses (at Novartis), but I then tried to understand the implications.

When hit by the worldwide financial problems, multinationals who employ thousands globally will invariably make cuts as has happened to Novartis in Horsham.

It is easy to shrug and say it happens everywhere but we never imagine it happening in what we consider a reasonably prosperous town likes ours.

There is going to be much heartache for a lot of families. I can only hope that Novartis handle the situation with compassion and offer guidance and help, as I know that Horsham District Council will make every effort to assist.

It is a bitter blow for the town. There will surely be an effect on business, but somehow we will recover and regain confidence again.

We must all try to promote and vitalise our local economy during tough times. This is where strong communities come into play.

Cllr Roy Cornell District councillor, Roffey South (Con)

Help for companies Novartis’ announcement is another example of the global restructuring of some of the big pharmaceutical companies.

West Sussex County Council will be working closely with Horsham District Council and Jobcentre Plus to see how we can help those affected.

We are doing all we can to help companies to grow and to attract new investment in these challenging economic times, working with the Gatwick Diamond Initiative and the Coast to Capital Local Enterprise Partnership.

Flair, face paint and fun Ellen Kenworthy Millais School, Year 11

Eight performances and countless awards later, the Rock Challenge 2011 first round was completed with Millais School as runners-up.

The hard work and commitment of teams from schools around West Sussex finally paid off as they each performed dance interpretations of a variety of topical subjects.

The first stage of the competition was held at The Hawth, Crawley.

As each school performed, the other competitors watched eagerly and supported their fellow schools as they were judged on

choreography, make-up, theme originality, performance, technique and staging.

Harriet Lovett, 16, a dancer from Millais School said: “It’s my fourth year of participating and I love it. It was a really good day and that’s why we keep on coming back every year.”

The Millais theme demonstrated how people who suffer from motor ticks or nervous twitches are often labelled and stereotyped.

Jo Emery, Millais dance teacher, said: “The girls were absolutely fantastic and were extremely supportive and full of life throughout the day.”

Millais contributed an exciting and original performance to finish second to St Paul’s, Burgess Hill, while also taking the awards for Best Make-up, Best Staging and Best Choreography.

Road-smart youngsters win quiz Dorset House School, Pulborough, won the final of West Sussex County Council’s road safety and TravelWise quiz.

After the first tie-break in the quiz’s 21-year history, the school picked up the Pemberton Shield and £30 worth of Evans Cycles vouchers for each pupil in the team.

Pound Hill Junior School, Crawley, finished second, while Leechpool Primary School, Horsham, won a shield and £10 worth of vouchers

after finishing joint third.

Cllr Lionel Barnard, deputy leader of West Sussex County Council, said: “Congratulations to all the winners.

“It is such a great achievement and shows just how smart our students are when it comes to road safety and travelling around in environmentally friendly ways.”

Twenty schools and 120 students took part in the finals at Chichester Festival Theatre.

Learning with a feast of fun Year 5 and 6 children at Holy Trinity School, Lower Beeding, enjoyed a Tudor Feast.

They started the day making Tudor bread and potage (Tudor soup) before King Henry VIII said grace and invited his Lords and Ladies to eat with him. In front of the King was a roasted pig’s head, with an apple in its mouth.

The feast also included chicken drumsticks and Tudor-style gingerbread, eaten with only a knife.

Drink was either ginger beer or dandelion and burdock, drunk from tankards.

After the feast came the entertainment. The children had worked in their own time to come up with a variety of entertainments – jousting, poetry, dancing, a musical recital of Greensleeves, a scene from The Tempest and minstrels juggling.

The pupils all wore costumes and discovered the rites and customs of Tudor times.

Bella bash A celebration of Italian food and fashion on a night that was just for the ladies International Ladies Day, which was officially held on March 8, was celebrated in style at Carmela’s restaurant in Horsham, with food and fashion.

The female-only group of guests enjoyed a range of Italian dishes and drinks at the restaurant on Denne Road as well as a fashion show organised by The Essence of Fashion.

There was an after party held at

Piries Bar in Piries Place.

The Essence of Fashion sells clothes at parties and functions from sizes 10 – 24, as well as jewellery, bags, scarves and accessories.

All of its products can be viewed at essenceoffashion.co.uk.

The company is also available to host private and public viewing functions and fashion shows.

Local shops and businesses can take part in an Easter hunt around Horsham next month, as part of Piazza Italia V

Horsham store’s customers and staff put the fun into fundraising with a week of Comic Relief Sainsbury’s in Horsham raised over £2,500 for Comic Relief during a week of fundraising.

The store and its staff took part in a number of events over the last seven days, including a fashion show, which was the grand finale on Saturday.

Commuters and other customers of the store’s petrol station raised £300 on Friday morning alone. Many of the employees came to work in costume on Red Nose Day, dressed as cowgirls, nuns, vampires and even a giant beer bottle. Staff and the managers also competed against each other on the football pitch for a friendly match, at which the managers won 10-2.

The fashion show involved staff members strutting their stuff dressed in Sainsbury’s TU range of clothing. There was also a Gok Wan-style makeover with host David Swain, who altered some of the outfits. The national day of fundraising for Comic

Relief, known as Red Nose Day, culminates in a live television show throughout the evening on the BBC. This year, the on-the-night total exceeded £74 million – a record for the charity.

Businesses in Horsham have the opportunity to get involved in the town’s Big Bunny Hunt, which will be running for a week during the school Easter holidays.

Between Monday, April 11 and April 25, children will be able to go to participating shops and venues and could win a prize at each place.

Businesses that take part will be responsible for supplying small prizes such as chocolates or small treats for those children who pull a ‘carrot’ card out of a pack.

Anyone who enters can also guess the name of the bunny as part of a larger competition and could win cash prizes. There will be an entry fee of £30 for businesses that want to host the competition and there is

also a chance for one shop or venue to have the ‘guess the bunny’s name’ entry box on their premises for an additional £30, attracting even more kids and their parents.

The event is being organised

by The Rotary Club in association with Horsham District Council and also forms part of the Piazza Italia V event, which is taking place over Easter weekend.

Organisers are expecting hundreds of participants, increasing custom for businesses that take part. All proceeds will go towards the Rotary Club’s ‘Making a Difference to Horsham’ scheme.

To participate in the Bunny Hunt, call John on 01403 754005 or email jleross@attglobal.net

Mentoring service for youngsters starts in Sussex A new venture in the region will provide kids with advice from experts

Sainsbury’s staff raised £2,500 for Comic Relief

A former City-based business consultant is starting a mentoring service for 13 to 24 year-olds in Sussex.

Teresa Bentley has joined Kids2Work as a regional associate and will provide young people with counselling, helping them to make the right choices for their education and careers. The organisation and its advisers work directly with individuals as well as through schools, colleges and universities.

The consultants working on behalf of Kids2Work all have a strong business background, which means they can give advice based on the experience they have gained.

Teresa has a significant amount of experience and skills in recruitment and mentoring, as well as having an MBA and postgraduate psychology qualifications. She said: “I decided I would like a change of career direction that would enable me to use my skills and experience to help young

people - something I feel is particularly important in the current economic climate”.

Kids2Work operates in partnership with Randstad and Alexander Mann Solutions to provide young job seekers with access to the UK’s largest jobs database.

To mark the launch of the venture in Sussex, Teresa is offering 10% off the fee for individual packages before the end of May. For more information visit www.kids2work.co.uk

Businesses shine at awards Workshops for town Black tie awards dinner for Gatwick Diamond, presented by Trevor McDonald, demonstrates a thriving business community in the region The 2011 Gatwick Diamond Business Awards took place at The Copthorne Effingham Park Hotel last week.

The black tie dinner was hosted by Sir Trevor McDonald and attended by representatives from businesses across Sussex and Surrey.

The awards recognise companies that have shown innovation and inspiration in their work and are organised by the Gatwick Diamond Business Association, also known as Cadia. The association was established 50 years ago and provides a voice for businesses in the area, as well as running a successful networking group of professional members.

Guests on the night enjoyed a drinks reception, at which there was an opportunity to mix with the hundreds of other business people, before a three-course meal.

Trevor McDonald spoke about his life, career and the lessons he had learnt before presenting awards.

Categories included ‘the green award for a sustainable workplace’, ‘best small business’ and ‘business

person of the year’. Sponsors for this year’s categories included Rawlinson Butler, Central College Sussex, Creative Pod and University of Brighton.

It was a particularly great night for Burgess Hill-based logistics company, ILG UK. It went home with two awards, ‘customer delight’ and the coveted ‘business of the year’.

Managing Director, Grant Ashley, said: “We’ve worked hard to continue to deliver on our promises. However, we aren’t complacent and everyone is committed to maintaining these impressive levels of service. Then, to triumph in the main event, the last award of the evening - ‘business of the year’ - I am just so proud of our entire team, who all pull together to make our organisation the dynamic and rewarding place it is today.”

It was also a successful evening for Lifestyle Europe. The automotive company, which operates retail sites across the region as well as an online business, was recognised for its commitment to ‘developing people for business success’. The company ensures its staff members have the

skills and knowledge they need to deliver.

Lifestyle Europe’s Managing Director, Peter Isted, said: “We have invested a lot of time into developing our training side of the business and this proves to us that it is worth the hard work. We were up against hard competition in this category as training and development is currently essential for all companies. Helen Farrow, our Group Human Resources Manager, has worked extremely hard to ensure our training scheme is up to date and effective. We are exceptionally proud of the work she has put in.”

This is the latest in a line of recent awards for Lifestyle Europe. It has received three others, including ‘best retail group’ at The Automotive Industry Awards, which the company won for the third year running.

The 2012 Gatwick Diamond Business Awards will open for entries on October 17.

Horsham Law firm raises a Coole £4,500 to help others in need Coole & Haddock has raised over £4,500 for charity by donating its time and services to the community free of charge.

The law firm, based in Horsham, collected the money for Will Aid, a charity which asks solicitors all over the country to provide a will writing service in exchange for a donation from a client.

The charity has raised more than £1 million in total and runs a campaign every November that encourages people to ‘make a will and make a difference’. The organisation distributes the funds to nine other

charities, which include the NSPCC, Age UK, British Red Cross and Save the Children.

Jonathan Shankland, a Solicitor at Coole & Haddock, said: “We believe that the work Will Aid does is really important both in the UK and poorer parts of the world, so we are happy to donate or our time and services. It means that we get to meet lots of new clients and give something back to the local community as well as raising money for a range of worthwhile causes.”

Coole & Haddock is based in Horsham’s Carfax and provides specialist

legal advice to businesses, organisations and individuals. For more information visit www.coolelaw.co.uk or www.willaid.org.uk

In the second of her monthly columns for The Resident, Dee Blick highlights how media coverage can be a boost for your business, and what you can do to get some positive coverage.

Dee is an award-winning, Horshambased businesswoman, a Fellow of The Chartered Institute of Marketing and has 26 years’ experience in the industry

The power of local PR – part 1 Dee Blick www.theblickblog.co.uk

It’s a challenge for even the most tenacious business owner to get coverage in the national media.

It’s not impossible, but it’s unlikely that you’re going to find journalists clamouring for your story if you’re relying on a press release alone to work its magic. Most journalists have reliable and trusted sources, such as PR agencies, feeding stories to their exact brief. It can be easier and less intimidating to start by targeting coverage of your business in local publications.

So, if you are intent on getting your business news published locally where do you start? Well before you do anything, you must understand the difference between advertorial and editorial.

Advertorial is space that you have paid for, or that has been given to you as part of an advertising package.

Provided you keep your advertorial legal, decent, honest and truthful, you have pretty much free rein over the content so you can lavish it with superlatives about your business.

Editorial on the other hand is different. You have not paid for this space - you are being featured because the journalist has deemed your story to be worthy of inclusion because it’s newsworthy. The entire editorial piece may be about you and your business or you may be one of several. Your inclusion within the feature may be a quote from you.

With advertorial you are in control, with editorial the journalist is in control. When trying to gain valuable column inches for your business, you must bear in mind at all times that a journalist wants stories, angles and features that will inspire readers and fit in with the ethos of the publication.

A journalist does not want to listen to what amounts to the content of your advertisement or a hollow sales pitch.

So, do you have a genuine newsworthy angle that will fit in nicely with the publication? You’ll only know if you have read the publication from cover to cover before you pick up the phone and start to pitch your story. This is good business etiquette too. Turn the tables round. If someone was trying to pitch their services to you, you’d expect them to have done their homework on your business wouldn’t you?

Editors and journalists are only interested in one thing - finding useful, relevant and interesting content that readers will enjoy reading.

Local publications tend to love local business success stories and will usually feature business owners that are not afraid of sharing a robust opinion or two!

Are you growing at a rate of knots in the current climate? Are you celebrating a special anniversary? Have you launched a new product or service? Have you recently gained a special award? Have you overcome a major setback to launch your business or, are you striking out on your own for the first time?

These are all potentially newsworthy stories. I have just scratched the surface so watch out for more expert commonsense PR advice in my next column.

If you want your visual senses to be numbed by the quality, revived by the beauty and then ripped apart by the drama of some of the images, then you don’t want to miss Hung, Drawn and Displayed at Horsham Museum and Art Gallery.

And if that wasn’t enough you can have the adrenalin rush of the auction process as you enjoy the chase of buying your favourite piece at Toovey’s Spring Gardens salerooms.

The exhibition features the work of 60 artists, including some of the region’s most talented contemporary names, in the relaxed atmosphere of Horsham Museum and Art Gallery’s medieval timber-framed building in the Causeway.

The exhibition and sale has been organised by Nicholas Toovey, drawing upon his experience of 16 years in the resale art market and using the contacts established over many years of sourcing emerging and established artists and craftsmen.

Toovey has managed to pull together some amazing works by renowned artists including Chris Kettle, whose painting Natura Sola Magistra will be a talking point for visitors.

Best known for his landscape studies, Andy Waite is showing a different output. His painting What the World Has Shown Me looks down on the visitor who admires the pallet and artistry of the portrait.

Along with artists are various craftsmen, some exhibiting for the first time, each merging the boundary between art and craft.

No doubt tying people in knots over the meaning of art will be Horsham-based ceramicist Deborah Timperly, whose work Knotted and Hung will cause some debate.

A sculpture by Eve Shepherd, The Arrogance of Youth combines myth and drama in her anthropomorphic form in terracotta.

This work contrasts with the original drawing by Hannah Stewart of the very popular Southwater Iguanodon which was used for the promotional material at the unveiling in Lintot

Ali Waite reviews Shreddertron Live at The Brighton Hydrant, Saturday, March 5 Ali Waite

Review

Beneath the sea of leather, Maiden T-shirts and tasselled jackets, you could mistake this evening for a Village People reunion show, instead it was quite the opposite with Horsham’s Shreddertron.

Enthralling the Brighton Metal scene with a thunderous set of abrasive material, which could only be personified as the noise a Transformer would make if Lemmy from Motorhead was behind the wheel steering the beast towards Donnington.

Expertly utilising the quiet/loud dynamic, their juxtaposition of ‘A Perfect Circle’ like dreamy soundscapes with pummelling ‘Messugah-eqsue’ plate tectonic moving riffs, creates a cacophony of sound that wouldn’t look out of place at ‘Bloodstock’, ‘Hammerfest’ or even ‘Download’.

Having a great backbone in brothers Alex and Rob Brindle pilling the coal in the engine room for guitarists Duve and Andrew to colour the songs masterfully; in particular second track ‘Monolith’ which embraces ‘Minerva’ era Deftones with more

recent material from NIN front man Trent Reznor.

A technically superb instrumental band, on the cusp of creating their own niche in the scene, by replenishing any ‘Metalheads’ palate with something truly different. Visit www. myspace.com/shreddertron for more information.

Square.

Hung, Drawn and Displayed is a free exhibition which opens on April 8 and runs until May 11.

All works displayed will be auctioned at Toovey’s, Washington, on May 28.

An illustrated catalogue with more information on every artist is available from the museum, helping raise funds to enable it to buy contemporary art.

Mark Lawrence reviews Tied To The Mast Live at The Green Door Store, Brighton, Thursday, March 3 Mark Lawrence

Review

Horsham five piece Tied To The Mast are a multifaceted vessel, riding the tempest of alternative rock sounds from sub-pop in the 90’s, washing it down by swigging the last dregs of Them Crooked Vulture’s Josh Homme’s Tequila.

Producing an eclectic set of material mixing, bone crushing Nirvanalike riffs ‘Traitor’s Gate’ and ‘Call

Home’, barstool sing-a-longs ‘Bad Blood’ coupled with the sundrenched ‘Plain Lazy’, that has festival anthem written all over it. The band’s ferocious set leaves the audience’s bodies still rumbling with their efflorescent sound which is only months away from breaking the mainstream on both sides of the Atlantic. Tied To The Mast are setting sail for higher ground, so pull up a chair, a bottle of rum and come on board.

Half a sixpence Half a sixpence is a musical comedy, based on the H.G Wells novel ‘Kipps’.

It is an insightful account of society and class in Victorian England at the turn of the 20th century.

The play tells the story of Arthur Kipps, an orphan who parts with his friend and future love interest, Ann, the day they leave the orphanage.

Ann writes to Arthur every week while away in service and the two are destined to meet again when Arthur is an apprentice draper at Shalford’s Drapery Emporium in Folkstone. But when he inherits money unexpectedly, he meets Helen Walsingham and quickly climbs the social ladder, putting a strain on his relationship with Ann. The tale becomes one of the pressures of class divides and questions the importance of money in the pursuit of happiness. This updated version of Half a Sixpence introduces children to the cast, as well as some new songs to add to classics such as ‘Half a Sixpence’ and ‘Flash Bang Wallop’.

Hoads Established in 1954, HAODS (Horsham Amateur & Dramatic Society) is one of the South East’s premier amateur theatre companies and produces and performs two major musical productions each year.

Over the past 50 years the society has gone from strength to strength, with members bringing a variety of theatrical experience and shows that received critical acclaim. As the experience of those involved with the group has grown, so has the diversity of the shows they produce.

With a growing membership, invaluable support from the Horsham community and many local organisations, HAODS continues its quest to provide regular and affordable entertainment.

New members are always welcome to join us at HAODS House, at the Broadbridge Heath Leisure Centre where our purpose-constructed rehearsal studio, costume wardrobe and stage props workshop are located.

Fit Bride Challenge 12 Week PaCkage 3 Sessions a week of a super intense workout

Motherhood: it is the best of times and the worst of times, and next week we celebrate women’s journey on Mother’s day.

We have some words of wisdom on the subject and some treats in store for all you mothers and daughters out there.

Oscar Wilde famously said “All women become like their mothers.

That is their tragedy. No man does and that is his.”

Never one to disagree with Oscar, I do think there is a gem of truth in that but it is a joy to watch your daughter pick up some of your own attractive traits because there is never anything disagreeable about us, is there?

When you look for the job description for a mother, you will never find one, but everyone will tell you how it is best done whether you want their advice or not.

This starts the day your children are born and continues long after they have left home. Never has a job been so long and misrepresented so badly by advertisers and film makers - where are all those cherubic babies who sleep all night and coo with delight when presented with a meal?

Never does one feel failure quite so keenly than when a small baby deposits your lovingly prepared meal squarely on the floor and rejects any attempts to soothe her to sleep. In all my professional life, I have never experienced such embarrassment as being the centre of attention in a shopping mall when my darling offspring turned purple with rage and emitted screams which could be measured on the Richter scale for the sheer force of their expulsion.

The sense of social rejection can be palpable when you have young children when you hear sighs and tuttings from fellow diners or

passengers in a plane as you arrive with your toddler in tow.

I confess to being guilty of that crime last week when enjoying lunch in my favourite French restaurant surrounded by babies but, actually, to my relief, they were all very well behaved and so I hold my hands up girls!

Claw back some ‘time for yourself’

The journey continues... suddenly you become a taxi driver to group activities such as football, brownies and ballet to ensure your child is well rounded and has lots of interests while you sit waiting in the car.

Beware of engaging in social chit chat with fellow mums who will be eager to impress on you how their child exceeds all expectations whilst yours cannot do a pirouette without falling over!

I was so keen for my daughter to be good at ballet that when she refused to go I joined in the class with the four year olds and quite enjoyed good toes, naughty toes but she remained

firmly unimpressed.

The terrible twos never quite prepare you for the terrible teens but there are marked similarities except the tantrums are about money, curfews, clothes and ideals which are less easy to fix with a bag of sweets.

The worst thing about teenagers is that they suddenly reject you as being the authority on everything and you become so uncool. It is really quite hurtful but natural.

Someone once said that mothers of teenage children know why some animals eat their young - bit harsh I know, but it is comforting to know in a strange way.

Before you know it University and life beckons and women everywhere suffer the ‘empty nest’ syndrome before realising that there is a lot of life left to live and that the kids will always need you but at a distance, and not for too long at a time.

So next week, celebrate at whatever stage of the journey you are and claw back some time for yourself to enjoy a indulgent and enjoyable day when you are queen bee.

Daughters and sons, grab the chance to say thank you and remember “Women are made to be loved, not understood”.

A Treat for the Feet Courtesy of Dr. Spafish Amy Jones Health & Lifestyle

When I was out shopping in The County Mall in Crawley a few weekends ago, I noticed a new shop with a queue of around 20 people waiting outside.

On closer inspection I discovered that a Dr Spafish walk-in Spa had just opened and, by the looks of things, had already become very popular!

Fish Pedicures, where your feet are dipped into a small pool filled with tiny fish that nibble away at the dead skin around your heels and toes, have become very popular of late and Dr

Spafish has cleverly cottoned on to the craze and developed a franchise offering fish pedicures on a walk-in basis at a very reasonable price (£10 for 15 minutes).

Currently, Dr. Spafish has a chain of eight existing Spas but new outlets will very soon be popping up in various towns and cities across Britain.

Garra Rufa fish are used for the pedicures and can be found in abundance in the Turkish town of Kangal. Further information about the fish and the locations of the Spas is given on the website www.drspafish.com.

To avoid the weekend queue, I returned to the Spa in Crawley during the week and requested a 15 minute

Fish Pedicure.

A little word of advice to anyone thinking of giving one a go: make sure you aren’t wearing fake tan on your feet, otherwise you have to sit and scrub it off in a bucket of warm water in front of everyone before you’re allowed a dunk (rookie mistake on my part). Unfortunately feet with verrucas, warts or athletes foot are unable to receive a pedicure due to the risk of spreading the virus and also harming the fish.

When I first dipped my feet into the pool, all the fish seemed to swim up at once and start nibbling the underneath.

I have very ticklish feet, which I

foolishly forgot to take into account when I decided to try the Dr Spafish experience.

If you don’t think you can bear lots of pairs of tiny teeth tickling you for 15 minutes solidly, then this is probably not the pedicure for you.

It’s a very bizarre sensation; you can actually feel the fish gently biting you!

Strangely enough, they didn’t go for the areas of my feet that I thought they would; the heels, the skin around my big toe, all the areas you would expect to find dead skin.

Instead, they seemed to set up camp around the bottom of my leg and the top of my foot.

15 minutes flew by and afterwards, whilst I was drying my feet with a towel and having them sanitised by the fish therapist, I did notice that my feet were quite a bit smoother and softer than they were before the pedicure. The fish therapist told me that there were also spas where you could have your whole body dunked into a pool and nibbled by the fish! I think I will stick to just the pedicure for now and, as I deemed my first one to be such a success, I reckon I’ll be paying Dr Spafish another visit very soon.

Having had few days of sunshine over the past week and summer clothes appearing in the shops, our minds turn to loosing those unwanted pounds that have crept on over the winter.

But how many times have you started a diet or new exercise regime, lost all the unwanted weight only to find it slowly starts to creep back on as we lapse back into old, destructive habits?

Even when we know that being over weight increases our risks of cancer, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, arthritis, depression and high blood pressure, its still so difficult to stay motivated for any length of time.

Hypnotherapy can help by re-programming your subconscious mind to exchange those unwanted habits and behaviours for new beneficial ones.

By re-programming our subconscious we can change our attitudes and emotions to food for life not just the time we are consciously focusing on our food intake.

Increasing the appeal of healthy foods, stopping when full and feeling satisfied by eating smaller portions are all easily achievable with the positive suggestions used in Hypnotherapy.

Overeating is an ingrained habit, an unhealthy, repetitive behaviour controlled by our subconscious mind.

In hypnotherapy we can motivate the subconscious mind to permanently exchange these unwanted behaviours for beneficial behaviours without the interruption of the conscious mind.

The subconscious acts on these suggestions as it is only concerned with what is best for our survival. As the subconscious mind is stronger than the conscious mind, it wins every time.

Weight loss is not the only unwanted habit that can be successfully treated with Hypnosis. Nail biting, thumb sucking, hair pulling (Trichotillomania) to name a few all respond well to this positive, safe and natural

treatment.

We all know how much better we feel after loosing excess weight. Fitter emotionally and physically and Hypnosis can really help you to achieve the results you want whether used as a therapy on its own or along side a weight loss and exercise programme to help you stay motivated and determined to succeed.

Karen is a qualified clinical Hypnotherapist holding a Diploma in Hypnotherapy and counselling skills.

Her clinic can be found in New

Street, Horsham where there is a quiet and comfortable therapy room with free parking.

Home visits can be arranged by appointment.

All therapy sessions are individually tailored to each client and are completely confidential. A CD is given to continue the good work between sessions along with a food diary and other self- help resources.

She laughed and said, “that’s easy, the art of good parenting is Guilt Management”!

Having never had kids of my own, I had no idea what she was talking about. Then they arrived and an extraordinary array of emotions came with them, one which was very predominant: guilt. I think the best bit of advice I can give you is to not be so hard on yourself about it.

Letting specialists Leaders are proud to be the largest independently owned letting firm in the UK, having recently added branch number 48 to their growing network.

However, the team in Horsham are keen to stress that Leaders remains a family business, with a strong focus on delivering a very friendly, personal and local service to their clients.

Says Kathy Taylor, senior branch manager at Leaders Horsham: “My team and I are completely focused on providing a personal, local service to our landlords and tenants. We have unparalleled knowledge and expertise of the lettings market in Horsham and the surrounding area, with decades of experience between us.

We may be part of a larger company but we are proud that we are still the friendly local letting agent on the high street.”

Setting standards in letting The first Leaders branch was established in Brighton in 1983 by the co-founder of the Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA), Neville Lee. He was committed to

address

0.5% for property sales

providing a high quality service to landlords and tenants, and to improving standards in the lettings industry as a whole, both of which he achieved by ensuring that Leaders were always at the forefront of best practice in lettings.

Today the firm is run by his son-inlaw, Paul Weller, who is determined to see this philosophy continue as a core part of Leaders’ business strategy, no matter how large the company becomes. Indeed, Leaders continue to prove themselves in this regard, having recently won the Sussex Company of the Year award and been short-listed for the Estate Agent of the Year award in this year’s Observer & Gazette Business Awards.

Says Paul: “All our branches are run by experienced managers, each of whom knows their local lettings market inside-out. They are given the freedom to run the branch as if it were their own business, with control over their own budgets, marketing, recruitment and relationships with local employers, relocation companies and contractors. We believe this is the key to successful letting and to

providing a truly personal and local service.”

Local service with solid backing And, as Kathy points out, being part of a large company benefits landlords and tenants in many ways: “We always have the widest choice of properties to rent; we are able to give our landlords much wider coverage through our marketing, greater efficiency through our cutting-edge IT, access to the best local contractors, and the peace of mind that comes with dealing with a solid, well-established company.”

Leaders are proud to be able to offer their clients the best of both worlds – a locally delivered personal service with the backing of a large family firm with branches across the South.

Demand for rented property let and managed by Leaders in Horsham is exceptionally high with good quality flats and houses being quickly snapped up by waiting tenants.

Yes, it’s ‘daffy-time’ again folks!

Every year as soon as the daffodils burst into view, the telephones ring off the hook, the computers are clogged up every morning with emails and the diary reminds me of one of my daughter’s first attempts at artwork.

So yes it is a very good time to put your property on the market as large numbers of new applicants start to search for a home which they will hope to be able to move into over the summer months, especially if they have children they wish to get settled before the new school year starts in September.

For instance, last Saturday we held an Open House event at a client’s property in Horsham and had in excess of thirty buyers looking round it; the vast majority of whom were fully proceedable and raring to go, resulting in a sale in excess of the asking price.

This level of demand would suggest that as long as you are realistic with your expectations, your estate agent should be able to generate significant interest in your property on your behalf.

Just one word of caution however. It follows that if a large number of potential sellers all decide to sell in the Spring because there are more buyers, then equilibrium will quickly be reached. In other words, there will be enough new instructions coming onto the market to satisfy the increased demand so try not to be tempted to overvalue your own property. This could backfire if you are left on the market to ‘go stale’ and eventually find yourself twiddling your thumbs over the quieter summer holiday period whilst the neighbours are busy unpacking their loft and posting change of address cards through your letterbox.

The combination of warmer weather, new school starts in September , more competitive mortgage lenders and the reassurance that house prices are now widely acknowledged as being stable for the first time in many years all combine to motivate good quality, serious buyers into beginning their search now.

So to secure the best price and to make the most of ‘daffy-time’ over the next couple of months please call me and I would be delighted to advise you accordingly.

If you are contemplating putting your house on the market this Spring or would like an answer to any property-related question, please call me on 01403 732727 or email ‘rossattwood@harper-james.co.uk’

The amount of interest that you pay over a mortgage term could run into thousands. If you took out a £150,000 capital repayment mortgage, over a 30 year term you could end up paying back in the region of £261,366. In simple terms, that means for every pound that you borrow you could end up paying back £1.73!

However, there are many things that can be done to reduce these charges.

Reduce the term. By shortening the number of years over which a mortgage is re-paid, will greatly reduce the amount of interest that will be charged.

Additional payments. By making some overpayments, whether regular payments or in lump sums will also reduce the amount of interest that you are charged.

Before making any additional overpayments, check with your mortgage provider that these payments will not incur any penalties or charges.

Offsetting. By choosing a mortgage that allows you to offset your savings against your mortgage debt can also reduce the amount of interest that you will be charged.

Get a lower rate. By reviewing the interest rate that you are being charged on a regular basis, is a must. The mortgage market is constantly changing and you should make sure you are being charged the lowest possible rate on a regular basis.

To find out how you can reduce your interest charge, please contact me on 01403 268562. Alternatively if you would like to ask a question, please e-mail info@ mercierallen.co.uk

Q A

I have a roof leak and had 2 roofers out for estimates. Both say they can’t find the source of the leak and insist the entire roof needs replacement.

It’s only 20 years old! I’d appreciate any advice. We really can’t afford a new roof right now.

Roofing contractors probably make their largest profits installing roofs. It’s understandable that some might not want to spend their time chasing leaks during a visit for an estimate.

Before calling in a roofer, however, diligent homeowners can perform a few simple tasks to help define the scope of work that might be necessary. Also, surveyors have expert experience tracking down particularly elusive sources of roof leaks, without selling you a new roof.

Is it old or active?

If water drips out when it rains, that’s an easy call. If you’ve just discovered a stain that may have existed before, it can be difficult to determine if it’s from a condition that was previously repaired. Surveyors have special damp meters that measure the moisture level of a stain. If readings are anything but “dry,” it’s likely that the stain is the result of a recent leak. A homeowner can simply use a pencil to outline a stain, then check to see if the stain grows after the next rainfall.

Does it get wetter when it isn’t raining?

I get to see plenty of moisture, stains, and even damage that occur from moisture that condenses. There’s a lot of water vapor generated inside homes. Bathrooms without extract fans or fans not vented to the exterior, leaking dryer vents, damp bathrooms. Improper roof ventilation or uneven insulation can create “cold spots” where moisture condenses to the point of dripping onto the ceiling or wet areas on the underside of the roof sheathing.

No, it’s definitely a roof leak.

After ruling out interior sources of moisture, you’re convinced that it’s the roof. In my experience, it’s rarely the roof itself that’s actually leaking.

If the roof covering is deteriorated or damaged from wind, hail, snow or tree branch, it’s possible, but these occurrences are usually rare. I find it more common for roof “systems” to leak at penetrations, terminations at walls or chimneys, or where roof surfaces change direction.

Proper details Where plumbing vent pipes penetrate the roof surface, there should be a tight collar. Some older lead collars can loosen over time and even some newer rubber collars crack and leak long before the tiles fail.

Where a chimney interrupts the roof, there should be stepped lead flashing installed where each course of tiles meets the masonry. A counter flashing is then installed to shed water, running down the sides of the chimney, over the top of the step flashing.

Roof-to-wall joints should also have step and counter flashing, although the siding on the wall often acts as the counter flashing. What can appear to be a roof leak is often from water entering the wall above where it meets the roof.

Valleys are formed where opposing roof slopes meet. These handle a considerable amount of water that has collected on the two surfaces above. There are different methods of constructing valleys with some having seams that can be the source of a leak.

Many times the above details have been “repaired” with roof cement.

This gooey black tar should be considered an unprofessional temporary repair. When older homes have roofs replaced, some contractors don’t take the time to properly re-install these flashings or replace them as needed. Roof cement often becomes a time saving short cut that lasts just long enough for the contractor to disappear.

If I can provide you with any further information or assistance, please contact me at Harper James on 01403-732727 or duncanjagger@harperjames .co.uk

Property

Spacious town house in gated development Guy Leonard and Company are delighted to be able to offer an impressive and spacious town house located in a prestigious gated development in the centre of Horsham.

The property is immaculately presented with a delightful landscaped garden and comprises, over three floors, three bedrooms with an ensuite shower room and a family bathroom, a kitchen/dining room which has access directly onto the landscaped garden, sitting room, study area, cloakroom and garage.

The guide price for this property is £430,000 for the freehold For further information or an appointment to view please contact Guy Leonard & Company on 01403 248222 or visit www.guyleonard. co.uk

Incredible demand for properties Well it would seem that the press are absolutely right! Much has been written, particularly in property journals, about rising rents and demand outstripping supply and this is something we would agree with 100%!

At Guy Leonard & Company we are experiencing an incredible demand for properties and we are achieving rental levels higher than ever before.

As a potential landlord it would seem the perfect time to invest; low property prices, low interest rates, buy to let products slowly creeping back into the market and a huge demand for properties.

The profile of the tenants looking for property really hasn’t changed.

There are still many, young couples who just cannot jump onto the property ladder at present so they begin their lives together in the rented sector. We still have single professionals who do not want the commitment of being a property owner so prefer the flexibility of renting.

As ever in the area of West Sussex that we cover we struggle to find enough family homes for people to rent particularly in the £850.00 to £1200.00 price bracket.

If there is an area of the rental market that remains price sensitive it is the top end of the market. Not everyone can spend in excess of £1500.00 per calender month on rent alone so properties above this level do need to be priced realistically and it can take a little longer to find the right tenant.

However this is another extremely buoyant area of the rental market and one in which we are very successful

Superb rural setting Leaders Limited, the area’s leading specialist Rental Agent, are pleased to offer this exceptionally spacious five double bedroom detached bungalow set in the grounds of a large farm estate and offering superb countryside views.

The property briefly comprises of; Entrance hall, small shower room, large double aspect lounge, modern fitted kitchen leading to separate dining room, there are five double

bedrooms all with built-in storage, a family bathroom, separate wc and small utility/laundry room.

A particular feature of the property are the large and secluded surrounding gardens which border open fields.

A detached garage plus ample parking is also available for tenants use.

Available on an unfurnished basis for £1500 pcm. Viewing recommended. Contact 01403 217585.

at matching the right tenant to the right property.

Many properties are letting the moment they appear on the internet.

We recently offered a two bedroom property in Storrington for £825.00 per calender month. Previously this had let at £775.00 and had usually taken a few weeks on the market before a tenant was found.

We advertised the property on the internet on Monday of this week and

by Tuesday we had three potential tenants. I think we would have had more but to continue to show people would have been unfair on all those parties involved – unfortunately you can only go with one tenant and it is always hard to disappoint people.

Our sales department are currently selling a number of properties to investment landlords and we are waiting anxiously for these to go through so we can help a few more tenants to find a home.

We do have one very well proportioned three bedroom property available in Coldwaltham for £850.00 per calender month.

Coldwaltham is a lovely village on the edge of beautiful countryside.

There is a village pub and a thriving primary school.

The property offers an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, cloakroom, three bedrooms, bathroom, garden and outbuildings.

If you would like any further information about this property or our services in general please do not hesitate to contact Angie or Philip on 01903 744166 or Karen on 01403 246750.

Insignia Sports Tourer clinches top award Olli Nott Motors Reporter

olli@the-resident.co.uk

Parkers, the UK’s best-selling car price guide, has named the Vauxhall Insignia 2.0 CDTi 160 ecoFLEX Exclusiv its Family Estate Car of 2011.

What makes this victory even more flattering is Parkers’ New Car Awards are based on facts, powered by their ‘cost of motoring tool.’ Launched at

the beginning of the year, the tool identifies the true costs of servicing, VED, fuel consumption and depreciation.

With motorists feeling the pinch, customers are more value-conscious than ever before and the Insignia Sports Tourer ecoFLEX offers stylish looks coupled with value-for-money.

Kieren Puffet, Editor of Parkers said: “The Vauxhall Insignia won the Parkers’ New Car Awards 2011 Family Estate category because it is a stylish estate, exudes quality and

comes with many practical features to please owners. What really impresses is that it proves delivering on a big, spacious estate doesn’t have to mean expensive bills.”

With an average fuel consumption of just 55.4mpg combined, the Insignia Sports Tourer ecoFLEX can save families money on fuel when costs at the pump are at an all time high.

The Parkers award will stand proudly next to the 2009 European Car of the Year award; that the Insignia won for its design, quality and

technical innovation. The jury members were impressed by the richness of equipment, including FlexRide suspension and Adaptive-Forward Lighting.

With some 40 other awards bestowed upon it, it’s no surprise that UK buyers made the Insignia the best-selling mid-size car soon after its launch in what is Europe’s biggest single market for the model.

Battling the Ford Mondeo, a long standing champion. Who will you choose?

Two out of three drivers want fuel duty stabiliser Two out of three motorists would like to see the introduction of a fuel duty stabiliser according to a new survey by Motorpoint.

The online poll by the car supermarket giant found 69% of people quizzed welcomed proposals currently being discussed by the Government for a fuel duty stabiliser. Nearly 2,000 people participated in the study at www.motorpoint.co.uk.

In 2008 when in opposition, the Conservatives proposed a “fair fuel stabiliser” - something criticised by the then Labour government who said it could leave a £3bn hole in public finances.

In 2010 David Cameron and his colleagues promised to introduce a mechanism such as a fuel duty stabiliser to help protect motorists from major fluctuations in world oil prices.

However in January of this year, Mr Cameron played down promises of a fair fuel duty stabiliser when he told the BBC: “I don’t want to raise people’s hopes too far because it is a difficult issue.”

David Shelton, Managing Director of Motorpoint stated: “Although the Government remains tight lipped about any plans it has to combat record fuel prices, it is clear from the

Motorpoint poll that in the face of record prices at the pumps, the vast majority of people would like the option of a fuel duty stabiliser to be explored ahead of the Budget on March 23.”

It’s now up to the government to give the people what they want, fingers crossed they will, because many drivers are being priced out of driving. What do you want to happen?

Lifestyle launches online services A new website service that delivers even better customer service has been launched by Award-winning south-east based car dealer, Lifestyle Europe.

The website has made it even easier for its Horsham customers to take care of their motoring needs.

Developing their popular website further, the company now offers an online booking service for customers wanting to book a service or an MOT Test. Covering the Kent, Surrey and Sussex regions, this is a huge benefit to busy customers who want to look after their vehicles to maintain performance and road safety.

Designed to match today’s “hectic regime,” the Lifestyle Europe AfterSales Service website is for those who might not have time to pop into the showroom. Available seven days a week, 24-hours a day, services and MOTs can be booked for new or used vehicles of all makes and models.

This new service allows customers to keep their vehicles in the best possible condition, road worthy and makes it easier for them to pick a time that suits them.”

Lifestyle customers can use the website – www.lifestyleeurope.co.uk - which gives motorists their own personal portal to make priority service bookings, arrange courtesy cars and even talk instantly, online, to an assistant based at Lifestyle about any queries they have with a vehicle.

That’ll do nicely for Horsham Hornets are 90 minutes from historic final at the American Express Community Stadium Matthew James Sport Editor

matthew@the-resident.co.uk

After two months of turmoil, in which they have become embroiled in a fight against relegation, Horsham are one win from an historic day out.

The Hornets will face Lewes or, more likely, Brighton and Hove Albion Reserves in the Sussex Senior Cup semi-final after this replay win against Burgess Hill on Wednesday.

The prize is an appearance in the

first match at the American Express Community Stadium, Albion’s spectacular new home, on July 16.

A great strike, an own goal and a comical clincher gave John Maggs’ men their first win in 12 matches since I took over as Sport Editor at The Resident, excluding the Brighton Charity Cup which is certainly not their top priority.

Billy Dunn opened the scoring after 27 minutes with a stunning shot from 20 yards which left goalkeeper Callum Christie standing.

That was the only talking point of a tight first half in which the only other

noteworthy event was the lack of almost anything noteworthy.

Dunn helped put Horsham in the driving seat five minutes after the break when his cross from the left was screwed past Christie by defender Lloyd Cotton.

And it was almost three just after the hour when Steve Davies teed up Anthony Storey for a well-struck shot that Christie did well to stop.

Dunn broke forward but shot wide from 25 yards and Christie comfortably held the same player’s shot from similar distance before Gary Charman deflected Matt Percival’s cross

past Mark Zawadski, the second own goal of the evening.

That could have sparked an uncomfortable final 10 minutes for Horsham, but Lee Farrell put the result beyond doubt with a comical third goal seven minutes from time.

The substitute capitalised on a defensive error and rounded Christie, only to stumble on the ball just a few yards in front of the empty net.

Fortunately the ball crossed the line just inside a post, though it barely reached the net as even one or two of the visiting players struggled to supress a smile.

Noose tightens on YM after defeat Tom Norris Football

the-resident.co.uk/sport

Zac Henry gets away with raised studs

Horsham YMCA were made to pay for a dismal opening half hour as they were dealt their 25th league defeat of the season.

The result tightens the loop of the hangman’s noose on the Ryman League Division 1 South strugglers, who are a mountainous 15 points from the final safety place.

Manager John Cumberbatch said: “Quite a few of our players have connections with Dulwich. It was one of those games where we felt we shouldn’t need lifting, but we were poor (in the first half).

“I felt as if we played with no desire and as if we didn’t really care about the result or what we were doing.”

Zac Henry gave the ball away cheaply, allowing the dynamic Nyren Clunis to skip past three defenders before coolly slotting past Mark Fox. Dulwich doubled their lead midway through the first half when a well-directed free kick was met by

the head of striker Rob Gradwell.

Henry’s shot from range was cleared off the line before an encouraging end to the half for the hosts was overshadowed by an effort from Vernon Francis, which just clipped the YM crossbar.

After the break, Tony Reid saw his thumping header cannon off the bar, but YM offered little else in the way of clearcut chances.

Ray Powell should have extended the visitors’ lead, but instead lobbed into the path of retreating defender Hugh Samuels.

Cumberbatch added: “We are missing Kevin Lott big-time and in all sorts of ways. That for me has been the main loss.

“Dulwich are a good team and they’ve been scoring a lot of goals lately, so it could be said that we did well to keep them to 2-0. But that just isn’t good enough.”

Horsham’s colts had a busy weekend, with Boys and Girls U10 and U12 county tournaments in Eastbourne and league action for the Boys and Girls U14.

Horsham Boys U12 were thrilled to finish second and will join Mid Sussex at the regional tournament in April.

The Boys U10 were narrowly defeated in their early matches but finished with a fine 1-0 win against Lewes, newcomer Fergal Eason-Butler scoring his first Horsham goal.

The Girls U10 A team missed out on the regional finals by just one point, while the B team finished seventh and showed promise for next season.

Despite three goals by Sophie Gunning, the Girls U12 also missed out narrowly.

Charlie Walder and Georgia Burrell scored as the Girls U14 beat Epsom 2-1, while the Boys U14 lost 6-1 to a formidable Canterbury side despite scoring first through Lewis Harvey.

Hotshots won 1-0 at Brighton and Hove Flippers. Lewis Neal hit a post before Peter Rayward scored the only goal, while stand-in goalie John Kimberley demonstrated his versatility with some incredible saves.

Crawley leave Huskies out in the cold Basketball

Holbrook Huskies (black shirts) take on Crawley Photos by Vic Heritage

Huskies were unfortunate to draw the champions-elect in the second round of the Sussex Basketball Cup. The Crawley team is made up almost entirely of players from Lithuania, a powerhouse in world basketball which provides professional players for Europe and the United States.

Weakened by injury, illness and other unavailability, Huskies travelled with only seven fit players.

Coach Dave Goss was obliged to suit up assistant coach Darren Courtney Fitch and team manager Phil Barnett, both of whom gave valuable rest minutes for the team.

With four three-pointers against Huskies’ zone defence, Crawley led 20-5 going into the second quarter.

But Huskies’ offence got going in the second. Their three-quarter zone

defence caused Crawley problems and Huskies won the quarter 23-21 to 41-28.

A switch of defence to zone by Crawley in the third caused Huskies to turn over the ball and, with poor shooting, allowed Crawley easy fastbreak points to lead 63-39.

Tiredness hit Huskies in the final quarter and they conceded 30 points while only scoring 12.

Goss said: “On paper this looks like a drubbing, but we probably played our best basketball of this season and I truly believe we are improving.”

Pulborough youngsters triumph in thriller Youth Cricket

Pulborough U16 (49) beat Steyning U16 (47) by two runs to win the Plate final of the Identilam Colts League.

In the semi-finals at Tanbridge House School, Steyning (44-0) beat Horsham (42) before Pulborough (66-2) beat Horsham Trinity (60).

From the first over, when Steyning’s Jacob Gwilliam (4-3 in three overs) dismissed three Horsham batsmen for no runs, the evening was dominated by the bowlers.

The final Horsham pair of Jack Dean and Richard Lowis tried to repair the damage, but Ryan Maidment

and Steve Wynn-Davies knocked off the runs in only 4.4 overs.

Horsham Trinity started well with Josh Tustin (14) and Jake Harris (20) scoring freely, but James Chriss took 2-12 and Ryan Brown bowled a maiden.

Pulborough’s Jordan Cox retired on 22 and Dan Bachelor hit two sixes.

Gwilliam was at it again in the final, sending back the dangerous Cox and Shane West for no runs, and despite Chriss’ 25 it looked like Steyning’s title when David Neale took the final two wickets.

Chriss claimed 2-14 and finished a fine evening’s work by taking two superb catches, including one off his own bowling.

Take Zak! Cup glory for young Hornets Striker scores twice and keeper saves three penalties in dramatic final Matthew James Sport Editor

The young Hornets with the cup and their individual trophies

Horsham U15 won the Knockout Cup in dramatic fashion, beating Hawks U15 on penalties after a pulsating final at Peacehaven.

Zak Comber and Lewis Blaney were the young Hornets’ heroes on the day, with two classy goals and three shootout saves respectively, but the silverware represented a great squad effort throughout the competition and against high-quality opposition on Sunday.

It was a perfect weekend for Tanbridge House pupil Comber, who scored four goals on Saturday to fire Roffey Robins Wanderers U15 into the final of the Plate.

He said: “I’m ecstatic. We (Horsham) came quite close to winning it last year and to win it this year is amazing.”

Hawks goalkeeper Matt Morrish held shots by Alex Parsons and George Hole, the latter after a fine move involving Comber and a header down by Jake Legrange.

Connor Cushing and Legrange saw goalbound shots blocked in quick succession after Morrish was penalised for picking up Will Miles’ back pass well inside the area.

Morrish parried Comber’s

powerful shot before the lively Tom Frankland missed a good chance from Legrange’s cross to the far post.

At the other end, Blaney saved Howard Sturgeon’s header and Josh Marshall fired just wide when well placed.

Horsham went ahead on the stroke of half time. Legrange’s pace took him into the box and although Nick Wallis did well to block, Comber followed up to finish clinically with a first-time shot from 12 yards.

In an even second half, Curtis Gayler almost equalised with a deflected free kick and Parsons shot wide after breaking through the middle.

With one hand seemingly on the cup, Horsham were stunned when Marshall levelled with a low shot from the edge of the box seconds from the end of the 80 minutes.

As play swung from end to end in extra time, Sturgeon blazed over when he probably should have scored and Comber cut in from the left before unleashing a blockbuster only inches too high.

Horsham fell behind to Marshall’s second quality finish for the Whitehawk side 13 minutes into the extra 20 minutes.

But seconds later Frankland found Parsons who crossed for Comber to volley sweetly into the corner, showing impressive technique to keep the ball down as he swivelled 10 yards

After extra time; penalties 3-2 from goal.

Morrish tipped over Stanley Rice’s free kick and Cushing shot wide from 30 yards as Horsham went all out for a winner in a thrilling spectacle, topped by the drama of penalties.

Comber emphatically, Jacob Waller off the crossbar and Anthony Jupp confidently converted from the spot, while Blaney made three saves to secure a 3-2 shootout success.

Blaney, who attends Steyning Grammar School, said: “It was end to end at times, but the lads played great football and we did well to win it.

“I was pretty confident when it went to penalties because I’ve never lost a penalty shootout.”

Horsham manager Ian Meadows said: “Hawks are a top team and it was a good advert for our league (the Sussex Sunday Youth League), but I had every faith when it went to penalties because our keeper is one of the best in the county.

“We’re probably not going to win the league, but it’s good to have a bit of silverware and it’s been a real team effort.”

Either Horsham’s players are moderately happy or someone has found a £50 note

Two-goal Zak Comber seals it with a kiss

Robins celebrate Memorable weekend for Roffey Robins Athletic U16 will face Heron Olympic U16 in the Plate final at Broadbridge Heath on May 1.

Athletic booked their place by edging out Steyning Strikers U16 6-5 on penalties after a 1-1 draw.

Edd Railton saved a Steyning penalty in the first half but Strikers took the lead 10 minutes after half time and survived wave after wave of Roffey attacks.

Edward Streamer made a goalsaving tackle as Steyning hit Athletic on the break. It proved a crucial intervention as Karl Johnston crossed for central defender James Burley to head an equaliser two minutes from time.

Both teams had half chances in extra time before Burley converted the decisive spot kick.

Zak Comber ran riot with four goals as Roffey Robins Wanderers U15 beat Steyning Strikers U15 5-2 in the Plate semi-final.

Chris Nicholson scored the other, helping set up a final against Horsham Sparrows U15 on May 1.

Greenway U15 were denied a place in the final of the Fred Sparks Cup after a 5-0 loss to Dorking Saints Lions U15, but the home side were not without their chances.

Harry Hinchley turned two defenders and crossed for Cameron Allen to shoot at the goalkeeper, and Felix Close was also unable to beat the keeper with a long shot.

Greenway will feel aggrieved not to have won a penalty when Craig Buckthorp seemed to be pulled down, but at least they can now focus on winning promotion.

Richard Castle’s first-half hat-trick earned school bragging rights for Broadbridge Heath U15 in a 5-2 win against Horsham Crusader Knights U15.

Oli Young scored from the edge of the box and Adam Bolitho from just inside the opposition’s half. Ed North was Heath’s man of the match.

Southwater U18 lost 7-5 in a thriller against Rustington Otters U18. Sam Wilson and Dan Rose each scored twice, Zak Moore once, in a real ding-dong-do.

Horsham as Kerr Bros star Will Kerr netted a perfect hat-trick – with his right foot, head and left foot – and brother Ali also scored on a fantastic weekend for Horsham Youth.

Will’s treble helped Horsham U14 win 4-1 at previously unbeaten Bognor Regis Town U14, while Ali broke the deadlock for Horsham U13 in a 2-0 win at high-flying Middleton Diamonds A U13.

The U14 team fell behind after six minutes, but Jordi Walser and Harry Masih went close before Will Kerr thundered a shot into the top corner.

Horsham U13

Either side of half time, Liam Ruz saw his stinging effort well saved and Callum Nash was just over after a good run.

The young Hornets edged in front from Walser’s long throw, Kerr making a darting run and flicking a header into the bottom corner.

Ruz hit the crossbar from a tight angle and fired wide when well placed as Horsham piled on the pressure, with Bognor looking dangerous on the break.

Kerr ran on to Nash’s pass to claim a deserved hat-trick and the roles

were reversed when Kerr supplied Nash for Horsham’s fourth.

Horsham U14 will face Highdown Saints A U14 at Arundel FC in the League Cup final on Sunday (4pm).

Horsham U13 have a final of their own to look forward to, against Middleton Diamonds A U13 on Sunday week, and the Hornets gained a psychological advantage by winning their top-of-the-table league match.

Eddie Davis went close twice and Nick Bristow four times before Ali Kerr opened the scoring in the second half, driving a low shot from outside the area just inside a post.

Another goal from distance sealed the win, Hugo Cowan chipping beautifully into the top corner after Charlie Belton tied two defenders in knots.

It was a fine team performance as Horsham’s defence of Lewis Reeves, Louis Lewis, Alfie Carter and Tom Summerfield helped shut out the top scoring team in the division.
