WHEN Ourco wanted to donate £5,000 to a local charity in memory of Gary Ledden, his parents were asked to nominate one. Having supported Scarborough & District Mencap since 1961, Pat and Joe Ledden didn’t have to look far. They generously doubled the sum, taking it to £10,000. The Leddens have been ardent supporters of Mencap since 1961 and their late son Gary followed in his parents’ footsteps. Jenny Stamford of Mencap said: “Joe always supported everything we did, with transport and anything we needed, and Mencap’s association with Gary also went back many years”. The family’s support of Mencap originates in its taxi firm transporting pupils to and from Springhead School, now attended by over 75 children and young people with severe, profound and complex learning difficulties. Mencap provided an escort to travel with pupils. Volunteer welfare visitor Joyce Nichols, universally known as auntie Joyce, became a family friend of the Leddens and helped forge their link with Mencap.

The £10,000 will help buy a wheelchair-accessible vehicle for Mencap, which needs just over £20,000 all together. An appeal to raise the difference was launched at the town hall, where the mayor, Cllr Joe Plant, said: “It would be wonderful if people and businesses within the borough got behind this fundraiser in memory of Gary, who did so much to help so many people”. Ourco was another worthy cause supported by Gary, who died suddenly in April, aged 51. Vronny Thorpe of Ourco said: “When we were thinking about opening a charity shop two years ago, Gary let

us use one of his empty shops free of charge. It was the old Evening News office in Aberdeen Walk and then we moved to where we are now in Northway and he didn’t charge us for either”. Ourco has raised £70,000 in three years. Needless to say, Gary didn’t charge Mencap rent for its charity shop near Ourco. The presentation was also attended by Ourco volunteer Matti Gledhill; Ray Clarke of Mencap, whose son Neil is a service user; and one of Gary’s sisters, Elaine Searle. Anyone wishing to make a donation to the appeal can do so at the Mencap shop in Northway.

Cross-country bike ride for little Max Words and photo by Dave Barry FOUR friends are to cycle from Morecambe to Scarborough to pay for life-changing surgery for a little boy. Max Turner is a plucky little character who has drawn one of life’s short straws. He was born prematurely and diagnosed with cerebral palsy. His father Paul and three friends, who he met when they were at Scalby School, are to undertake a cross-country bike ride over three days, starting on 21 September. “With limited to no cycling experience, some might call this crazy”, Paul says. “However, we are doing this to help Max, who desperately wants to walk”. Paul will be joined on the 150-mile ride by his old classmates Andy Coole, Ian Perrelle and

Steve Yates. The ride will kick off a fundraising campaign that will hopefully allow Max to have transformative surgery, either in the UK or US. The surgery, rehabilitation and physio could cost up to £100,000. Max and his twin sister Alice were born six weeks prematurely and spent three weeks in the hospital’s special-care baby unit. Soon after Max was born, Paul and his wife Cath realised something was wrong. He was nearly at the point of organ shutdown and had a hypoxic event with a lack of of oxygen which permanently damaged his brain. He was diagnosed with cerebral palsy spastic diplegia. Throughout his short life, Max has suffered with stiffness and rigidity, leading to restricted

movements, problems with balance and coordination and a big delay in reaching major physical milestones such as walking. Physiotherapy is essential for Max's development. Early intervention is key to helping him towards gaining good head control, core strength and a good range of mobility. However, due to a combination of low muscle tone and spasticity, it remains difficult for him to get into various positions such as sitting or up on his knees or keeping his feet flat on the floor without the need for splints. Paul and Cath, who live in Scarborough, have been taking Max to Brainwave in Warrington since October 2016. The charity helps children with disabilities and additional needs to reach their potential through therapy programmes devised for parents to deliver within the family home. Paul says: “We follow the programme alongside our local NHS physio to help Max build up his core strength, balance and coordination. He is making good progress in his new walker and loves to chase his sisters around. However, it still remains almost Max impossible for

him to move around independently. “We have been researching further treatment options and believe now is the time to start fundraising for a life-changing operation known as SDR (selective dorsal rhizotomy) surgery to increase the chances of Max being able to live and walk independently”, Paul says. “It works by removing the spasticity in the body and makes it much easier for him to do the everyday things we take for granted. It will transform his childhood and reduce the longterm effects of cerebral palsy such as muscle shortening, deformity and pain”. Unfortunately, the treatment is not available on the NHS so the Turners have approached a leading paediatric neurosurgeon, Dr TS Park in St Louis, Missouri, USA. The surgery, followed by intensive rehabilitation and physiotherapy for up to three years, will cost £100,000. Paul says: “For the time being, we are working hard to ensure Max can build enough strength to benefit as fully as possible from the operation. “Difficulties aside, Max is a beautiful boy and melts our hearts with his infectious smile. He is very chatty alongside Alice and he makes us proud every day. “He loves being with his sisters and friends and giggling and joining in. He is very determined and hopefully with the love and support from our friends and family he will be able to lead a fully independent life. We will try our upmost as parents to give Max the best possible chance and with a little help from our friends we will succeed”.

Mayor’s life changed forever after heart trouble Words and photo by Dave Barry THE borough mayor has a strong personal reason for choosing Healthy Hearts as the theme for his year in office. Cllr Joe Plant is supporting and raising awareness of local heart nurses who deliver patient care. He wants to raise funds to buy equipment for them and for the heart-rehab team which helps patients along the road to recovery by looking after their health and fitness. In addition, he is trying to raise awareness of the local British Heart Foundation (BHF) shops. He says: “They thrive thanks to the generosity of local communities and the incredible people who work in them”. The reason for the campaign is Cllr Plant’s experience of serious heart problems. He says he remembers the day he became ill “as though it was yesterday”. He was 49 and it was just another normal day, working in a garage. “I was feeling a bit dizzy and it got worse as the afternoon wore on. I rang my wife Margaret and said I wasn’t feeling well. She said she would pick me up and take me to the doctors. “At the time, I just thought I was coming

down with a chest infection and wasn’t really worried about it”. Cllr Plant had an ECG and wasn’t prepared for what happened next. “Getting blue-lighted to hospital was a scary thing to happen for both my wife and myself. I was in tears. My life as I had known it changed forever”. He and the medics thought he had a chest infection. He was sent home with medication but didn’t get better. He went back to the GP and ended up back in hospital. This time, he was treated for asthma, which runs in the family. His health deteriorated and he and his wife grew seriously worried. “I was confused, as they could not diagnose me with anything, but I was determined not to let it get me down”. Cllr Plant was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy in 2008 and has been in and out of hospital ever since. He had a small stroke and has had heart failure twice and a cardiac arrest. He was diagnosed with mitral regurgitation and atrial fibrillation. He had a defibrillator implant in 2012 and was upgraded to a cardiac resynchronisation therapy pacemaker in 2016. He says: “I cannot thank the heart consultants, doctors and nurses in Scarborough

Summer fun in West Ayton DERWENT Valley Bridge in West Ayton is one of the other libraries taking part in the Summer Reading Challenge. Parents are being invited to take their children to workshops on 9 and 16 August, from 2-4pm. They will help to make a collage of Beano characters playing in a street scene, using scraps of fabric, wool and paper, together with buttons and other bits and pieces. They will be able to make something to take home. The collage will be displayed in the library.

The sessions cost £2 per child. On 30 August, from 11am-3pm, the library will have a Blue Planet Day for children aged 3-10. Sea Life Centre staff will explore ocean wildlife through crafts, games, stories and pictures. It will cost £3 per child including refreshments and ‘fishy' snacks. Tickets can be obtained at the library at 3 Pickering Road, West Ayton; or ring 863052. There is no charge for adults.

Hospital, James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough, Whitby Hospital and my local GP surgery enough for their tremendous continuous care and support, not just for me but for my family as well; we have nothing but praise for them. “It was life-changing and not just for me, but my family as well. I was feeling sorry for myself - angry, frustrated and upset, but you are allowed to be and I was determined not to let it beat me. “With the professional care and my family and friends around me, I got through it and eventually learned to live again. What more motivation do you need to pick yourself up and move on than seeing your family growing up and grandchildren coming into the world? “I know I am lucky to have survived and I treat every single day as a bonus. I am so happy with what I have got and now I just get on with it and live life to the full”. He had to give up his job but is still a borough councillor and on 17 May, Cllr Plant became the mayor of the borough of Scarborough. “I would advise anyone else who is going through an illness: don’t give up, don’t say you can’t do it; be determined and if you can do it, do it”.

Words and photo by Dave Barry THE 70th anniversary of the NHS was celebrated with a party at More Than Books library in Eastfield. Volunteers and residents at the communityrun facility enjoyed strawberries and cream while discussing the merits and future of the National Health Service. The anniversary was an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of one of the nation’s most loved institutions, to appreciate the vital role the service plays in our lives and to recognise and thank the extraordinary NHS staff – the everyday heroes – who are there to guide, support and care for us, day in, day out. A fascinating display of old photos, memorabilia and equipment was mounted by Bridget Read, the engagement manager with Scarborough & Ryedale Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), which is based at the town hall. The CCG’s work is driven by local GPs and other healthcare professionals. “Together, we are responsible for planning and buying the vast majority of health services you may access”, Bridget said. “The CCG also promotes wider health campaigns aimed at improving the health and wellbeing of our population.

Police cadet joins civic couples on official duties Words and photo by Dave Barry

A POLICE cadet is accompanying Scarborough’s civic couples on their official duties. Mally Leybourn, who lives in the town, Mally Leybourn (to order is attending events photos ring 353597) and functions with the mayor and mayoress, and their deputies, throughout the mayoral year. The new role was suggested by the mayor, Cllr Joe Plant, who asked the police if they could provide a cadet. The police embraced the idea and cadets were encouraged to submit a short application for the role. Mally, 17, is acting as an ambassador for his cadet group and the borough. Duties include socialising and speaking to members of the public, helping with prize draws and charity events and giving readings at church services.

Police spokesman Neil Lancey said: “This appointment is a huge honour and highlights the important role that the police cadet scheme plays in our communities. “It’s a great way to instil civic pride and a sense of public service in young people in North Yorkshire”. So far, Mally has attended the mayor-making ceremony at the town hall, a civic church service at St Mary’s Church, the dragonboat races at Wykeham, the Disability Action Group’s summer fair in Barrowcliff, a theatre event at Northstead School, the Yorkshire Regiment’s cocktail party at the Yorkshire Show in Harrogate, a meeting of the Borough of Scarborough Community Fund committee at the town hall, a primary schools competition at the Cricket Club, the opening of the Ancient Seas exhibition at the Rotunda Museum, the opening of Seafest on the West Pier and a summer fair at Ravensworth Lodge care home. With the mayor and mayoress, Mally went for a ride on the Shannon lifeboat during Scarborough RNLI’s annual flag day.

The NHS was established in 1948 as one of the major social reforms following the Second World War. The founding principles were that services should be comprehensive, universal and free at the point of delivery. Each service provides a comprehensive range of health services, free for people ordinarily resident in the UK, apart from dental treatment and optical care.

Disabled hand-cyclist returns Labour candidate launches campaign Words and photo by Dave Barry A PARAPLEGIC hand-cyclist with a top speed of 47mph is returning to Scarborough on his way around the country. Rob Groves is hand-cycling 1,000 miles in 14 days around England. He is raising money to support disabled dogs in Romania, which he visited in June. Rob, 62, would like to meet rescued dogs, especially disabled ones, on his ride. “If they have a doggy wheelchair, maybe we can have a little ride together”, he says. “We would like to live-stream their stories and share with the world the importance of giving all rescued dogs around the world a loving home. “We will also be visiting animal sanctuaries that care for abandoned and unwanted animals”. Starting in Essex on 2 September, Rob’s journey will take him through Cambridge, Kings Lynn, Skegness, Scunthorpe and York. He will arrive in Scarborough on 7 September and leave two days later, after a rest. The rest of his trip will take him to Thirsk,

IIkley, Manchester, Stoke and Birmingham, before finishing at the Vale wildlife hospital and rehabilitation centre in Gloucestershire. Last year, Rob cycled 2,500 miles in 27 days to highlight the issues of pollution and climate change affecting our seas and coasts. Rob’s life changed 10 years ago, when an accident caused a slipped disc to crush his spinal cord. Being paralysed from the waist down, Rob doesn’t get a sore bum from riding but his shoulders and back ache. He said his top speed had been 47mph coming down a straight hill with a good surface. Rob operates his bike’s brakes and gears from an electronic control panel and films sections on a GoPro camera. Donations can be made online via justgiving. com - search for Quest4hope. Rob and his team will be collecting dog food to take to Romania. People can drop donations off at Boyes on Queen Street but will have to take them upstairs to the office near the cafe. Or they can meet Rob at the Sea Life Centre at noon on 8 September.

Hugo Fearnley and Ian Lavery with supporters in Scarborough LABOUR’S parliamentary candidate for Scarborough & Whitby launched his campaign with support from Labour Party chair Ian Lavery MP. Hugo Fearnley said: “I am extremely proud to be the candidate for our wonderful, rejuvenated, socialist Labour Party and to be standing to represent the area I have called home for the last 33 years”. Speaking to 80 activists in Scarborough, Mr Fearnley said: “We have a government in this country that is so beholden to the interests of the rich and powerful that any pretence at democracy is being abandoned as they seek, ever more pathetically, to cling to power. They exhibit staggering hypocrisy when they feign patriotism while selling out the futures of their own citizens”. Mr Fearnley described Scarborough as “the low-pay capital of the country, with people earning around £8,500 per year less than the national average”. He said a Labour government would immediately introduce a £10-per-hour minimum wage, “to ensure a fair day’s work is rewarded with a fair day’s pay.

“This should be backed up by strengthening our unions, so that workers are not exploited. On top of this we have to support the fantastic hardworking staff in our NHS by scrapping the public sector pay cap and increasing funding to reverse the decline in services caused by the Tories. “In Whitby, we have a hospital redevelopment plan that will only improve the building itself, but services are still under threat. I will be pushing for greater investment locally, especially in our ambulance service and social care”. Mr Fearnley said: “The Labour Party has a proud tradition of standing shoulder to shoulder in solidarity with marginalised and persecuted groups. We must confront those who seek to spread fear and division in our communities and we will never let them win”. Mr Lavery said: “With a candidate of Hugo’s calibre and the support of a rejuvenated party, I am confident that Scarborough & Whitby will become a Labour seat once again, with Hugo providing the type of leadership and representation that the people of this area so desperately need”.

Vicar soaked at Hunmanby church fair

Words and photo by Dave Barry

REV Tim Parker proved himself a good sport at his church’s summer fair. Again and again, he put his head through a large board bearing a life-size painting of a couple of Edwardian sea-swimmers. Children delighted in trying to hit him with a wet sponge, although adults generally had more success. Tim has history with this kind of thing, as he did it at his previous parish in Billingham, near Stockton. Today, Tim is vicar of the recently created Hertford benefice, which incorporates several churches: All Saints in Hunmanby (where the fair was), St John the Evangelist in Folkton, St Nicholas in Ganton, All Saints in Muston and St Peter’s in Willerby. The fair raised £1,142 towards new pew cushions for the church. Once made and in place they will bring a marked improvement in comfort for everyone who attends worship. The money was raised with the usual stalls, selling books, toys, bric-a-brac, plants, cosmetics, etc. “Our Spring cafe did a roaring trade, not least with the cake stall”, Tim says. “It was a positive day with plenty of visitors and a pleasant atmosphere with lots of

PARKS in Scarborough and Filey have been awarded Green Flags, placing them among the world's best green spaces. They are Falsgrave Park and Peasholm Park in Scarborough and, in Filey, Glen and Crescent Gardens, which counts as one park. All three have been awarded Green Flags every year since winning their first one: Falsgrave in 2005, Filey in 2006 and Peasholm in 2013. The borough mayor, Cllr Joe Plant, hoisted the Falsgrave flag up its pole. The three parks are among 1,883 large and small green spaces across the UK which have been awarded a Green Flag this year, almost 100 more than in 2017.

How to get Universal Credit on time Tips on how people can apply for Universal Credit application, so they can get it on time, are being shared by Scarborough & District Citizens Advice (SDCA). A new report from national Citizens Advice has found that a third of people who were helped by the charity struggle to provide the evidence needed to finish off their application. Universal Credit is a new benefit which combines six benefits into one, including Jobseeker’s Allowance and working tax credits. It was rolled out in the Scarborough area on 30 May. For many, the benefit is working well but a significant number are having difficulties. Since May, SDCA has helped 61 people with 121 Universal Credit related problems; the majority of them being about how to make an initial claim. SDCA has the following advice for anyone making a claim for Universal Credit: Provide evidence as soon as possible to make sure you’re paid in full and on time. If you need to apply for extra costs, like housing, you will need to show additional paperwork. Make sure you check you have completed all the stages of the claim. After making an initial online claim, you need to book a Jobcentre appointment. In total there are 10 stages which need to be completed, some of which are time-sensitive. If you miss a deadline, you might have to start the process again. If you get stuck, ask for help. If you’re struggling to fill in the online application form or have problems providing the right paperwork, ask for help as soon as possible so your payment isn’t delayed. People who the Citizens Advice service helped with Universal Credit have been asked how hard they found it to provide

proof for extra costs, like housing and childcare. Out of those surveyed, 48% found it difficult to provide evidence for health conditions, 40% found it difficult to provide evidence for housing and 35% found it difficult to provide evidence for childcare. The research shows that people receiving their first full payment late stood a higher chance of getting into more debt, or falling into it. When people didn’t receive their first Universal Credit payment on time, their chances of being in debt increased by nearly a quarter (23%). They were 60% more likely to borrow money from a lender to help tide them over. The report recommends that the government simplifies the claims process, makes it easier to provide evidence for extras costs and ensures adequate support is on offer to people making claims. SDCA chief executive Anne-Marie Benson says: “Making an application for Universal Credit can be complex and there are many different stages to get through before crossing the finish line. “This new research shows that providing the right paperwork for extra costs is one of the stages which causes the most headaches for people. “The government should look at making it easier to provide evidence online and people should also be aware of what’s required of them so they receive their payment on time. “We are particularly finding that people who are disabled, have a long-term health condition or are otherwise more vulnerable are finding it extremely difficult to navigate the application process. Claimants are given conflicting information or there is not enough flexibility allowed in the system to safeguard people’s health and well-being”.

Words and photos by Dave Barry A MAJOR engineering project designed to stabilise the hillside behind Scarborough Spa is under way. Most of the trees and shrubbery have been removed from the area, which will be replanted. All the paths have been closed to the public for several weeks. The work is critical for reducing the risk of a landslip damaging or destroying properties on the Esplanade. Ed Hinton of the Environment Agency said the work would help protect 380 homes. “We work closely with local authorities, providing advice and guidance, to help them plan for and manage coastal erosion”, he said. Piling and an almost horizontal drainage system are being inserted in the gardens. Most of the £13,453,000 cost is being covered by an £11.6m Defra grant administered by the Environment Agency. The difference of £1,853,000 will be paid by the borough and county councils. The work is not connected to the landslip below the Clock Cafe and should be finished by the end of next year, the council says. “The council and its contractor are, however, mindful that the timetable for works of this magnitude could be subject to the unpredictable influences of weather and the surrounding coastal environment”, says a spokesperson for the authority. Cllr Mike Cockerill, a council cabinet member whose remit includes coastal protection,

THE Friends of South Cliff Gardens in Scarborough have launched a £125,000 appeal. If they can raise enough pledges, the group will qualify for a £5m grant from the Heritage Lottery Fun (HLF), to restore the gardens. The grant would save “the unique and enchanting heritage of the gardens from a point of critical decline and breathe new life into them so they appeal to the 21st century”, according to the Friends. Spokesperson Lorraine Bryden says: “We need to raise £125,000 to show our commitment to the HLF that we are serious about restoring our gardens, allowing them to nurture our community’s health and wellbeing for years to come. “Once at the heart of Scarborough’s seaside resort, the gardens were the place to go to

improve your health and wellbeing, socialise, explore and enjoy the stunning sea views”, Lorraine says. “Over the decades, they have lost their original identity and become untidy, unwelcoming and overgrown”. She says: “All the people on the South Cliff are desperately wanting to get rid of these trees and make it more acceptable for wildlife. There are no low-growing shrubs for deer, foxes, badgers, etc to hide in. “We want the wild flowers back and somewhere where it is safe to walk, without needing to have a dog by your side for protection”. Pledges can be made on the Friends website, which is easy to find. Payments won’t be collected until January when the bid outcome is announced.

Stephen Semple of Balfour Beatty adds: “We have extensive coastal protection experience and have successfully completed numerous cliff stabilisation schemes”. It was a good job the Balfour Beatty drilling crew had a hosepipe and water supply handy when grass caught fire right next to the Spa.

Libraries take up the Summer Reading Challenge Words and photos by Dave Barry THERE was mischief afoot at Filey Library during the Summer Reading Challenge. The challenge requires children aged 4-11 to borrow six library books over the summer holiday period. This year the theme is Mischief Makers, inspired by the children's comic Beano, which is celebrating its 80th anniversary. To take part in Mischief Makers, children have to sign up as members at their nearest library. They are given a colourful collector’s map of Beanotown, to keep a record of their reading journey, and stickers, some with mysterious smells. By adding the stickers to their map, they help Dennis, Gnasher and friends solve clues and discover treasure, having fun and adventures along the way. Mischief Makers is taking place in libraries across North Yorkshire until 8 September. It includes a mini Gnasher challenge for preschoolers with stickers and certificates for little ones to collect. “It’s the perfect time for all the family to develop the reading habit”, says Sue Wilkinson of the Reading Agency, which is working with the libraries.

“At the Reading Agency, we believe everything changes when we read and we know from our research how much fun families and children have when taking part in the challenge”, Sue said. “Mischief Makers offers intergenerational appeal and we hope this family friendly, accessible theme will inspire more children than ever to read over the holidays and make use of their local library throughout the summer and beyond”. * Filey Library reopened on 11 July, following refurbishment. Improvements to the library, which opened in 1995, include a new children’s area designed to encourage more children and their parents to use the library. It now has a Scarborough Council enquiry desk and more table space for customers to use the library for study, using the free wifi.

Tardis tarted up but old sea-mine is left to rust Words and photos by Dave Barry NO sooner were concerns raised about the state of the old police box on Scarborough’s seafront, than it was restored to its former glory. However, the adjacent former sea-mine remains in urgent need of TLC. The Tardis, as many call the old telephone box, had rotten woodwork, peeling paint and broken windows. Birds had liberally expressed their opinion of it in the traditional way. Erected in about 1920, the box was once used to contact the police station, when it was on Castle Road. It is the only surviving police box out of nine which were dotted around the town, says Cllr Dave Billing, 67, who remembers seeing it as a child. It’s in its original position and was designated as a grade-2 listed building in 1988. The square, wooden box is listed under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 for its “special architectural or historic interest”. Cllr Janet Jefferson, whose Castle ward includes the box, says it belongs to the police. “It was renovated 10 years ago and repaired last year”, she said, adding that she would ask the police to restore it again. The old sea-mine, mounted on a plinth near the old police box, is also suffering from

dereliction and neglect. It is used as a collecting point for the Shipwrecked Mariners Society, formerly the Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners Society, based in London. A plaque on the mine says the society was founded in 1839 “for the alleviation of every phase of shipwreck distress among the seafaring population and their dependents. Over 1,000,000 cases relieved. There is sorrow on the sea”. The society’s website states: “In the last year, we paid out £1.4m in grants in over 2,000 individual cases of need brought about by debt, illness, disability, unemployment or retirement”. The mine, which has been painted red and white, has two slots for donations. However, the hinge on the lid is so rusty that it has broken. The meagre contents could easily be stolen by anyone small enough to clamber inside. * Do you know when the mine appeared or anything about its history? Ring 353597or email dave@thescarboroughreview.co.uk.

The box gets a makeover

Willy-warmer joker wears workhouse clothes at party Words and photos by Dave Barry THE oldest resident at Wheelhouse Square’s summer garden party dressed in workhouse clothes. Flo Brewin, 96, took her inspiration from the infamous building which stood on the other side of Dean Road in 1865. That’s when the original alms houses were put up. Flo likes a joke and doesn’t have much truck with political correctness.

Last Christmas, she made willy warmers for Wheelhouse Square’s male trustees and residents, which they unwrapped at a party. At the garden party, residents were joined by visitors including the deputy mayor, Cllr Dilys Cluer, and contractors who have done a lot of work in keeping the place to a high standard. They were entertained by Simply Brass and singer Danni May, who is auditioning for The Voice TV talent show in London at the end of August.

Wheelhouse Square is one of the nicest, most desirable and cheapest places for older people to live in Scarborough. Run by the Wheelhouse Charity Trust, it is a gated community complex with 32 flats for a maximum of 36 residents who are either over 60 or retired. Warden Tracy McKillop, who has lived there for nine years, says: “Everyone thinks they’re privately owned but they aren’t. “Not a lot of people know about us apart from

looking in through our gates to admire our gardens, which we have won a lot of awards for”, Tracy says. The flats cost £220 a month for a single and £340 for a double. “We don’t call it rent, it’s contributions”, says Tracy, whose mum Shirley Crawford and mother-in-law Jean McKillop live there. Inevitably, the flats are almost always full.

A dozen young German apprentices are spending four weeks in Scarborough, working for local employers. The project aims to improve their professional, cultural and social skills. Project manager Wendy Swaby of Ausblick Hamburg Mobility Exchanges says: “This is the 10th year that the project is taking place, ensuring that more and more young people are able to develop their potential, both in terms of a social context and employability”. Besides working, the apprentices are taking an English language course and, in their spare time, seeing as much of the country as possible.

They are working six hours a day, five days a week, and are due to go home on 5 August. They have found work placements in various sectors and trades including retail, administration, plumbing, hairdresser, warehouse operator, metal worker, elderly care, child care, hospitality and catering. The companies that have provided internships or placements include Andy Whitelaw Joinery, Boyes, Blands Cliff Hotel, Crown Spa Hotel, George Edward Smart Homes, Yorkshire Coast Homes, Louise Florist, Manor Road Nurseries, Jasmine Florist and RR Engineering.

£1,300 for spending a penny

Cllr Derek Bastiman, right, presents a cheque to Tom Cathcart A £1,300 grant will help people in Scalby spend a penny. The Sweet Pea Toilet Trust, which runs the public lavatories in the middle of the village, was given the money by Scarborough Council, from its community environment fund. The trust raises enough money to cover everyday running costs and cleaning but

needed extra funds to replace the urinals and pipework. The trust had already secured £250 towards the cost of the project and submitted a bid to the council for the remaining £1,300. Cllr Derek Bastiman, leader of the council and a Scalby ward councillor, said the trust does “a fantastic job looking after the village toilets and ensuring they remain open for the use of local residents and visitors to the area. “We welcomed their plans to invest in upgrading the facilities and are delighted to be able to give them the financial boost they need to start the work”. Tom Cathcart, who chairs the trust, said: “The money, without which we would struggle to make ends meet, will be spent wisely on improvements and repairs”.

New fundraiser at Saint Catherine’s A NEW face has joined the busy fundraising team at Saint Catherine’s in Scarborough. Debbie Jewison, affectionately known as DJ, spends most of her time out and about in the community, encouraging support for the charity’s lottery and Friends scheme. The weekly lottery’s top prize is £1,500 and the rollover can reach £20,000. In the Friends scheme, supporters make a monthly donation. The regular income helps provide a stable foundation for the hospice. Friends can add a leaf to a Tree of Life in the quiet room or chapel. Some people put their name on, some add a message of support, others do it in memory of a loved one. Debbie says: “I will be visiting local businesses, our charity shops, shopping precincts, events and fairs within our 1,600 square mile radius, so please come and see me, to talk about supporting local community care”. * Shipton jewellers recently ran a treasure hunt around the town centre in aid of the hospice. The Diamond Rush featured £6,000 worth of jewellery as prizes, said the company. Fundraiser Nicky Grunwell added: “Saint Catherine’s is close to the heart of the team at Shiptons after one of their colleagues passed

Hospice fundraiser Debbie Jewison away in the hospice earlier in the year”. * McCain Foodservice has donated £1,720 and some herbs to the hospice. The money was raised from donations by customers who wanted to pay for free samples being given out at an event in Marlow. * Jackie Blower is the first person to win the hospice lottery since the stake was raised to £2. She won £1,500.

Young and old penpals learn about each other Words and photos by Dave Barry

SOME of Scarborough’s youngest and oldest residents teamed up on a pen-pal project. Eleven-year-old children and nonagenarians shared their life experiences with each other. They mostly exchanged letters but some of the participants came face-to-face at St Peter's primary school, which the youngsters attend. The school and Age UK had worked together on the living-history project since September. Julie Macey is chief executive of the independent local charity, which covers Scarborough and Ryedale. She said: “It has encouraged inter-generational working and has seen year-6 pupils write to some of our elderly clients, and vice versa. “This has been a really exciting scheme, teaching the children how to write letters, and learning a lot about the war and other major events in the past; and bringing joy to our clients to send and receive letters. “One of our community link workers, Sarah Cockburn, has led on this, and has found it to be beneficial all round”. Susie Novis, one of the older people who took part, said: “It's been fun having a young penpal with whom to share my life. I always look forward to her letters, for rarely do I get real letters these days. It’s so good to hear about her life and gain her perspective on it. I'm sure being connected to a lively, lovely young member of humanity has broadened my understanding and helped to enliven me in my later years”. Philip Waite, 81, said: “In these modern and, in my opinion, troubled times, it is good to see the interest of impressionable young children in the older generation. I have thoroughly enjoyed writing to my pen-pal and hope I have helped him understand what life was like in the frugal war and post-war years of 1940/50”.

Maia Jarmany, 11, corresponded with Ray Mills, 89. She said: “Writing to Raymond made me happy because it let me express myself and to ask questions about his life was interesting. I like knowing how other people live their lives and to learn from elderly people. Raymond was in the Royal Navy at the age 14. Elderly people like talking to us because some have lost family members and some feel lonely and want to talk to someone”. Neve Jones, 11, and Charlie Monkman, 90, exchanged letters. Neve said: “I enjoyed writing to Charlie because he told me about the past and what it was like and because it showed me how things have changed. You can learn a lot about someone just by letter and we are different in our ways but have things in common”.

Edible insects at scout fair Words and photo by Dave Barry VISITORS to Scarborough’s annual scout fair were challenged to eat various dead insects. Protein-packed mealworms (beetle larvae), crickets and grasshoppers were on the menu at the old Tech in Lady Edith’s Drive. All are eaten in various places around the world but not very often in the UK. Without irony, Tom Cross, 11, of Derwent Valley scouts described the taste of a grasshopper as “lovely - it’s yummy!” His dad Rick, who was running the ‘bushtucker trial’, added: “Crickets are the best, like bacon”. For £1.50, all comers were served four teaspoons of the dried insects, including two types of mealworm. Rick got the idea during a family visit to a tropical centre in Anglesey, Wales. “Then we had a session eating them with the scout group”, he said. Beryl Lewis, assistant district commissioner for beaver scouts, said: “On the Derwent Valley stall we also had pillow fighting which drew the crowds, a tombola and hair braiding, which went on long after we took the stall down”. Assistant district commissioner Bonnie Purchon said it was one of the best scout fairs to date, with fine weather and lots of people buying things and joining in.

The penpals enjoyed a school play

“The Wreyfield Boys Brigade played and marched in the arena, which was a great sight. It’s not easy, marching and playing at the same time. “Thanks to captain Chris Bairstow and all our sections in the arena: beavers, cubs and scouts”, Bonnie said. “The explorers could not do their usual tug-ofwar as someone had gone off with the rope”. All seven scout groups in Scarborough were represented at the fair, which raised £3,000. The 46th Westborough group, which is going to the 24th world Jamboree, raised £560. Each young member has to raise £3,600.

THE Scarborough Retired Teachers’ Association is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Members enjoyed a lunch at the Raven Hall Hotel in Ravenscar with Tim Tubbs as guest speaker. The association, which welcomes local ex-teachers and colleagues who retire to the area, meets regularly for a variety of activities including monthly coffee mornings, speakers, visits and holidays. Anne Swift, ex-president of the National Union of Teachers, presented a certificate of lifetime achievement to John Morley for his work with the local and county associations of the NUT. John was admin officer for SRTA and spent 15 years as secretary of the Amicable Society,

the area’s oldest children’s charity. His wife Anne received a bouquet for her work as the current SRTA secretary.

Little sister gets lost BY JOE COATES It’s the silly season for newspapers, so I’m telling a silly tale. However, the issue of a child getting lost at the beach is serious, so let’s all be aware of our responsibilities when looking after children. I remember many years ago that sense of panic when I thought one of my children was lost at Filey beach, having just “wandered off” to make a sandcastle somewhere else.

It was a lovely, lovely day at North Bay, Scarborough. The North Bay Railway trains were tooting and whistling all day long. The beach was busy. It wasn’t one of those days someone described as “if you went in the sea you had to take your mother with you, or you would never find your way back to where your deck chair was.” But it was busy, and easy for a child to get lost! There was enough room for cricket, kite flying and plenty of space for numerous sandcastles. The most popular activity was running into the sea, jumping over the waves and running out again shrieking. Wonderful fun! The beach looked great: bright colours and striped patterns, chalets and surfboards, deck chairs and wind breaks, towels and tents, buckets and spades. Little sister, Jen, had come out of the sea. Teenage big brother, Kent, took her along to the shower. While Jen was drying herself and changing out of her yellow costume, Kent began chatting to a friend, so Jen headed back to Mum. “Where’s Kent?” “He’s chatting to a friend.” “We don’t want him to get lost, do we!” Mum chuckled and little sister smiled. In due course, Kent turned round, and realised little sister was not there! The friend saw something was wrong. Kent explained that little sister had been in the shower, and now she was gone. “That's serious!” said the friend. He sounded quite agitated as if he’d been in the sun without a hat for too long. “Don't worry! I'll help you. What colour was her costume?” “Yellow!” The boy, without thinking about it, started to shout, as he ran towards the lifeguards. “Help! Help! A little girl is lost! She has a yellow costume!” People close to them heard this and started to be helpful, calling out, “Emergency!

Emergency! A little girl in a yellow costume is lost. Come and help us find her!” Kent began to feel a bit of panic. He knew he should have kept a better eye on her. The lifeguards were there to help, but before they could do anything a growing crowd began wandering around the beach looking for a missing child and calling out, “Girl in yellow costume missing! Help! Help!” More people joined the search. There were actually a lot of girls in yellow costumes, so it was all rather complicated. Jen was now wearing a clean blue costume. Her wet yellow costume was in a bag. “What's all that noise?” she said to Mum. “A girl is missing. Let's go and help them find her?” So they joined the crowd looking for the missing girl in a yellow costume. What Jen didn't realise was she was the missing girl! But she wasn't missing! Yet now she was in a crowd actually looking for herself. What a mix-up! How could this have all happened? In time, as the crowd kept looking, Jen saw her brother Kent. “There you are!” he said. “Stop searching everybody! I've found her! I've found the girl in the yellow costume!” Then Kent noticed Jen was wearing a blue costume. Jen and Mum looked at each other, puzzled. But........ what a happy ending! The crowd were overjoyed. It's always a worry if a child gets lost. They had found the missing girl and everyone was happy, though a lot of them were a little puzzled. Quite a number of the helpers said,”I thought she was wearing yellow!” Kent had not been thinking clearly, and should have talked properly with the lifeguards, or told Mum first anyway. Maybe his friend should not have started shouting! But never mind! It’s a happy ending, though it's not every day you go looking for yourself! © Joe Coates 2018 www.northbaytales.com

School art project goes on show Words and photos by Dave Barry AN art installation on the top deck of a cafe on Scarborough seafront is attracting attention from visitors. Seastrand, at the bottom of an old cliff lift below the Spa footbridge, is run by artist Tess Willoughby, whose work inspired a school project. About 120 pupils at Gladstone Road Juniors, aged 9-10, produced artwork based on their studies, in Tess’s style. “The work was part of the children's history studies on Scarborough and the castle and geography work on coasts”, explained teacher Lesley Dodd.

“Tess offered to display the work at Seastrand”, she adds. About 30 a quarter of the year group visited the cafe to see for themselves how the installation looks.

The Sea of Crises on the Moon

Curious Roots

Local artist Dav White talks about the fascinating world of history, art and mythology

by Dav White EASILY seen from Scarborough if you look up at certain times of the month. On the lunar surface, nestling amongst the beautifully named Seas of Tranquility, Nectar and Fertility, is the Sea of Crises. It is the small, oval-shaped ‘sea’ at the top right-hand corner. The Sea of Crises is not a sea but 68,000 square miles of lunar basalt rock. It was named in 1651 by Italian astronomer and priest Giovanni Riccioli, for reasons unknown. The area has had its name changed by lunar cartographers many times throughout history. It was even called Britain at one time, on a lunar map drawn up by English astronomer William Gilbert. Later lunar and celestial maps became regulated and standardised by the International Astronomical Union to prevent anyone with a telescope drawing up their own lunar map and labelling its features as whatever they wanted. The Sea of Crises has always been an object of fascination. Over the last 200 years, there have been 12 official reports of transient lunar phenomenon, or unexplained flashes. The Sea of Crises has a magnetic field anomaly, which causes an unusually high concentration of gravity specific to that locality, as well as being the location of a rare geological fault where the moon’s surface crust is so thin it exposes the mantle underneath. The anomalies and reports of strange flashes inspired Arthur C Clarke’s short story The Sentinel, developed by Stanley Kubrick in his movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. In the story, the Sea of Crises was the location of the mysterious black stone monolith which appears to mankind just before a great evolutionary step.

X = Tranquility Base In 1788, German astronomer Johann Schröter theorised that the Sea of Crises was the home of the Selenites, the original inhabitants of the moon. The great English writer and one of the founders of science fiction, HG Wells, used this idea in his story, The First Men in the Moon, published in 1901. Using a new building

material that is impervious to gravity, two protagonists journey to the moon and meet an ancient race of moon dwellers. Wells named them after Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon. Wells was a pacifist and an outspoken socialist. His stories were widely read and his books were a favourite of Winston Churchill who used some of Wells’ lines in his early speeches. The Wells book, The Rights of Man (1940), laid the groundwork for the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was adopted by the United Nations. Wells greatly influenced sci-fi writers such as Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, who understood how writing positively about the future could influence and inspire future generations to do the same. Wells was despised by Adolf Hitler, who put him top of his hit list of notable British figures to expunge, if and when the opportunity arose. According to conspiracy theorists, the Sea of Crises was the location of a secret Nazi sublunar base. The theory formed the basis of the sci-fi novel Rocket Ship Galileo, published by Robert A Heinlein in 1947. The story tells of a secret Nazi moon base established at the end of the second world war. Conspiracy theorists believe the rapid rise in UFO sightings, initially known as Foo Fighters, were Nazi test craft whose air base was relocated to the moon along with Adolf Hitler and senior members of the SS after WW2. Many people who claim to have been abducted by UFOs say they have visited the Sea of Crises and observed vast hangers harbouring gigantic spacecraft. Besides ‘seas’, the moon has other features on its landscape that have inspired creative names. They include the Marsh of Epidemics, the Seething Bay, the Bay of Rainbows and the Lake of Death. The largest crater in the Sea of Crises is called Picard, after 17th century French astronomer Jean-Felix Picard. Seeing how the Sea of Crises is such a sci-fi hotspot, the crater could have been the inspiration for the name of Star Trek captain Jean-Luc Picard. Just to the left of the Sea of Crises is a place of special significance for humanity. The Sea of Tranquility is where Neil Armstrong stepped on the lunar surface. Apollo 11’s landing site, Tranquility Base, is close to the southern edge. English poet Robert Graves wrote: “Poetry derives its magic from the moon. The fact that so many scholars are barbarians does not matter much, so long as a few of them are ready to help the few independent thinkers, that is to say the poets, who try to keep civilisation alive”.

A scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey

BY HEATHER ELVIDGE

HAVE you had enough yet? Hot weather’s all very well for a while, but we’d like some rain now, please. A storm would be good — imagine how fresh things would feel afterwards — but so far there’s not been so much as a rumble from Thor’s hammer. Inevitably heatwaves bring a biblical plague of something or other, and this summer it’s been pollen beetles. The tiny, black creatures are drawn to everything golden, from yellow flowers to yellow tee shirts. Luckily, they’re only 2mm long. Pollen beetles can fly, so at least the swallows, swifts and house martins are happy. Dry soil means garden shrubs have smaller flowers than usual, and some plants have given up altogether. Yet tough hedgerow brambles have more than enough flowers to attract clouds of small white butterflies, meadow browns and ringlets. Buddleias, also drought resistant, are a magnet for larger butterflies: the handsome peacock flashing its misty blue eyespots, and the comma with a ragged edge to its mottled, russet wings. While butterflies are enjoying their best summer for years, the long heatwave is stressful for farm animals and crops. Ears of grain can’t swell without rain, so yields are low. Root crops are suffering, especially thirsty potatoes. Pastures are so parched that cattle and sheep are being fed next winter’s fodder. As for barley and wheat, the harvest is the earliest for 40 years. For centuries, Lammas on August 1 marked the start, with a church blessing for loaves made from specially cut corn. This year a Hampshire farm started on winter barley on June 28, and all over the country farmers followed suit — by now most of the combines will be back in their sheds. Drought is a novelty in rainy Britain. It’s normal to use hosepipes and garden sprinklers, jet-wash our cars and take long showers — all with water that’s fit to drink. Our ancestors would be astonished. They had to use this precious resource carefully, because someone, usually a woman or older child, had to fetch it from the nearest pump, well, or spring. In the Ravine at Filey, below the footbridge to St Oswald’s Church, there’s an old well where fishermen’s wives collected drinking water and carried it down

to the waiting cobbles in buckets suspended from shoulder yokes. Not all springs and wells were domestic. Some, rich in minerals, were holy and said to cure ailments. Scarborough had such a well on the castle hill near the ruins of the Roman signal station, perhaps fed by a spring containing similar minerals to the Spa water. The medieval water level in the Well of Our Lady stayed within three metres of ground level, a miracle indeed, because the 12th-century well near the keep had to be dug much deeper. The two wells can still be seen, although years of drainage and landslips have caused both to be dry. There was a ritual to approaching a holy well, so as not to offend the guardian spirit. First, the well was circled sunwise (clockwise), in silence. Next a prayer was said to the spirit or saint, and then the water could be drunk or poured over the ailing body part. Finally an offering was made to the well deity by dropping in something made of bronze, iron, or silver. This is the origin of throwing a coin into a well or fountain, then making a wish. The term “wishing well” was first recorded in 1792. Today’s wishing wells collect money for charity, the coins in their shallow water protected by a metal grille. Scarborough’s traditional-style wishing well is in Peasholm Park, while on The Crescent at Filey we’re encouraged to, “aim well, ring the bell”. This month we could wish on a shooting star. Look towards the northeast on any night until the 20th and you may be lucky, although the peak of the Perseid shower is on the night of August 12 to 13. These meteors, also known as St Lawrence’s Fiery Tears, have awed observers for at least 2,000 years. But they weren’t always as thrilled as we are. St Matthew’s Gospel named falling stars as a sign of Doomsday, so naturally people believed that they foretold a death or some other calamity. Pointing at them was really tempting fate. Wrap up if you’re out in the early hours, because on the 24th St Bartholomew brings the cold dew. August always ends with a fresh, autumnal feel to the early mornings, but the days could still be summery. Unless of course, the sky god releases all that rain he’s been holding back.

have got in store for you this month

HERE ARE A FEW FAMOUS FACES YOU SHARE YOUR SIGN WITH... L to R: Emily Bronte, JK Rowling, Kristen Wiig

LEO

23RD JULY - 22ND AUG

Quite an intense month in all affairs of the heart, and one in which you will be challenged to define the importance of one key relationship. For a union to progress, it must grow, and for it to grow, you must spend more time watering the garden! (Who said anything about trimming the bush?) You will find there is a very positive response from a lover or potential partner, who is waiting for you to give them the opportunity to prove how important you are to them. Travel aspects are favourable throughout

VIRGO

23RD AUGUST - 22ND SEPTEMBER

HOME & GARDEN • LUXE LIVING Contemporary, luxourious styling.

An ongoing argument over a trivial but irritating matter could get blown out of all proportion, so forsake the need to have the last word, and just walk away from the confrontation. It’s a work hard/play hard month but any financial gains will be spent rather than saved. Insurance, especially travel insurance, is something you can’t afford to ignore.

LIBRA

23RD SEPTEMBER - 22ND OCTOBER

August brings a welcome mood of emotional harmony and stability and you should do all that you can to keep things this way. Partners seem to be making a special effort to please and impress, especially if there are important anniversaries in the wind. The 9th and 10th are key dates for long distance communications, and a small financial splurge occurs on the 23rd or 24th.

FOOD, DRINK & TRAVEL • STUFFED AUBERGINE Created by Maple from Canada’s UK chef

• SEVEN YORK PLACE Scarborough's most welcoming cafe

• REALLY WILD 13 wild animals living as pets

SCORPIO

23RD OCTOBER- 21ST NOVEMBER

It may be time to review the worth of some of your same sex friendships, and if someone is not behaving like a friend, you might as well let them go and concentrate on people you know you can trust. Work routines get heavy during the last week, but you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing you’re at the top of your game, and the financial rewards speak for themselves.

SAGITTARIUS 22ND NOV - 21ST DEC

Sagittarians are not the world’s worst worriers but there seems to be a constant concern simmering beneath the surface, that try as you might, you can’t do anything about. Maybe, if you can’t let it go, you’ve got to learn to live with it until time sorts it out for you. Time and tide wait for no man, but time travels at its own speed.

CAPRICORN

22ND DECEMBER - 20TH JANUARY

FASHION • GET THE LOOK Autumn / Winter menswear

Keep in touch! Email: krystal@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

You’ve got some catching up to do, some belts to tighten, some pounds to lose. It’s a tough month on the work scene, but domestic routines are livened up a bit with the arrival of kittens, puppies or new babies… or just an unexpected guest! Any emotional tensions will be caused by an inability to see eye to eye with a partner over financial priorities.

AQUARIUS

August, but even if we’re only talking about holidays, where you go is not as important as who you go with, and what new energies are released while you are away. Business and career aspects will tend to be a bit flat, but rather than seeing this as a problem, you should see it as an opportunity. A little more leisure time should most definitely not be wasted! Anything to do with media, arts or drama should begin to acquire special significance from the 26th onwards. Any health hazards are probably exacerbated by over indulgence in something which isn’t good for you.

damned hard to find it. Career-wise it looks like you’re living to work, and you know in your heart of hearts that this cannot be right.

PISCES

19TH FEBRUARY - 20TH MARCH

A few of you will have egg on your face as you wonder why you’ve been so stupid, but by and large the majority of Piscesians can look forward to quite a nice month of social and emotional harmony. There are some “ups” around the 8th and 9th and a couple of “downs” around the 22nd, but while the ups are not very high, neither are the lows very low.

ARIES

21ST MARCH - 19TH APRIL

There may be plenty going on around you, but it’s all a bit parochial, and there are times this month when you’ll end up feeling rather bored. Exciting visions dance just beyond the horizon, but here you are, having to deal with the same old routines. Maybe this would be a good time to take up a hobby or find any kind of new interest.

TAURUS

20TH APRIL - 20TH MAY

The dog days of August seem to drag on, and like your Arian neighbour, boredom and lack of incentive may be an ongoing problem. Despite your lack of enthusiasm, you will try to make yourself busy with new work projects, and something useful could fall into place around the 13th or 14th. Some financial juggling is required to maintain you fiscal security.

GEMINI

21ST MAY - 20TH JUNE

A lighter and brighter month than some you have known this year, with some upbeat vibes coming from professional as well as personal associations. Travel aspects auger well, coinciding with reunions around the 18th or 19th. Health aspects should be improving at this time, providing you monitor energy levels and avoid dangerous sports.

CANCER

WANDERING EYE Dear Daphne, I caught my husband staring at another woman while we were out shopping and it really hurt my feelings. I’ve seen him do this sort of thing before but have chosen to ignore it and pretend it didn’t happen, but this one was way too obvious and felt embarrassing for me. I wanted to shout and call him names, but instead remained silent but I’m still furious. Have I left it too late to say anything? If you’re still furious then it definitely needs talking about, instead of being left to fester and blow up one evening when you’re rowing over the dishes: “It’s your turn!” “Oh its my turn? Well I caught you staring at that woman last Tuesday you pervert!” Sometimes, we all stare, especially if someone is particularly beautiful, but there’s a fine line between having a look, and obviously staring in a way that feels disrespectful to you. Approach the conversation when you’re feeling calm, this is an opportunity for you to work on something together instead of pointing the finger of blame. Make sure your husband knows that you have noticed in the past, and it’s made you feel rubbish. If you catch him doing it in the future, I suggest you loudly tell him to stop it - a little bit of embarrassment can go a very long way.

GHOSTED Dear Daphne, I’ve been ghosted by one of my best friends. I have no idea what I’ve done wrong - I’ve texted her a couple of times with no reply and even tried to call her, too. On the rare occasion that she turns up for a social event involving our whole group, she actively avoids being in the same conversation as me. I can count on one hand small things I might have done that could have upset her, but none of them are serious enough for her to want to cut me out of her life. I’m missing her, and want to know what I’ve done wrong. Is it really worth finding out? It could be anything, maybe she’s going through a hard time herself, maybe something you’ve done has actually upset her, or maybe she’s just being ignorant of your feelings. If she was a good mate and suddenly turned cold, its probably one of the first two. If you have a feeling it could be one of these, definitely try and pull her to one side the next time you see her, to find out if she’s ok, and if it has anything to do with you. If she wasn’t so great, don’t chase after her - ask her for an explanation and if you don’t get one, try your best to move on. You don’t need someone who has proven they’ll drop you like a hot potato when it suits. Focus on your new and withstanding friendships, if you’re meant to be friends with her, it will happen in due course.

DRIVING ME CRAZY Dear Daphne, My mum and boyfriend have kindly agreed to teach me to drive. The only trouble is, they’re both very stressful teachers. My mum pays attention to everything I do but is so overdramatic. She spooks over nothing and panics when I go over 40. It makes me nervous to even get in the car with her and I’ve found myself dreading the trips. My boyfriend is the polar opposite, he barely seems to pay attention and I worry if i’m doing stuff wrong without him noticing. I have a weekly driving lesson with an instructor but I’m worried that won’t be enough practice before my test next month. I don’t want to be ungrateful for the help but it’s really not what I signed up for. Despite their kind offers, it doesn’t sound like they’re the teachers for you. Your boyfriend certainly shouldn’t be teaching you if he’s going to pay little attention - this is dangerous for everyone on the road. Your mum sounds like a stressful teacher, too. You don’t want to develop a complex about driving from these stressful outings, so I suggest you stick to the weekly ones with your driving instructor. Practice-wise, why not slot in a extra lesson the week of your exam to make sure you’re feeling confident and well practiced - until then, it’s best to stick to the good habits and calm environment your instructor has ensured you’ve become accustomed to. Good luck!

21ST JUNE - 22ND JULY

You might regard it as a distraction but there are some interesting (and quite intense) emotional scenarios affecting you at this time and there should be more than one window of romantic opportunity. This is good news if you’re foot loose and fancy free, but down right bloody dangerous if you’re not! In all things, avoid loose ends.

20TH JANUARY - 18TH FEBRUARY

I wouldn’t describe August as being boring, but it’s a pretty low key and predictable month. On the plus side there is some stability, but if it’s adventure that you’re looking for, you’re going to have to work

In this special charity feature we look up... and discover all about the amazing Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

• SPECIAL YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE FEATURE • SPECIAL YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE FEATURE • SPECIAL YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE FEATURE •

WHY A FLYING AMBULANCE?

Richard Hammond when he crashed a rocket-propelled car travelling at 300mph at Elvington Airfield, just outside of York. The Yorkshire Air Ambulance picked him up and dashed him over to Leeds. Following that, donations form the public reached £2 million, and the charity featured in their own BBC 1 documentary series the following year... hosted by Richard Hammond. As thanks, we assume.

It goes without saying that Yorkshire is huge. Our four million acres of land are spread out over varied terrain, from flat vales to rocky hills. Yorkshire's population is also pretty big, with more than five million people living here (that's more than Scotland). So... getting an ambulance to all those people, around that often difficult terrain, can be tricky. Luckily we have the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. The charity began life in a Portakabin at Leeds Bradford Airport in 2000. The first ever helicopter the charity used was a 20 year old leased Bolokow – something they had to put up with until 2006 when their chopper was updated. That year was also when the charity shot to fame after rescuing Top Gear presenter

In 2008 a second helicopter was deployed, allowing the Yorkshire Air Ambulance to respond to emergencies even quicker. In 2012 the charity opened their own base of operations at Topcliffe near Thirsk, and a second purpose-build base was opened the following year on the Nostell Estate near Wakefield. In 2016 the fleet of choppers was

updated by the arrival of two new Airbus H145 helicopters; one stationed at Topcliffe, the other at Nostell. These babies can fly at 160mph!

In the know As reassuring as it is to know that the ambulances are ready to save us, no matter where in Yorkshire we are, did you know that the charity receives no help from the government to keep flying? They depend entirely on the generosity of people just like you... and boy do they need a lot of cash! To keep both helicopter crews flying requires more than £12,000 PER DAY! That’s around £4.4 million every year. If that sounds a lot, remember than since starting to fly the charity has saved the lives of almost 8000 people.

A stitch in time... saves lives

Supermarket sweep

The Yorkshire Air Ambulance recently accepted a grant from the Morrisons Foundation, a charitable trust set up by the supermarket chain. The £10,000 was given by the trust to enable YAA to buy a new piece of equipment; a Helilift. Angela Vyas from the charity said: “We’re absolutely delighted to have been awarded this grant from the Morrisons Foundation. The donation will help us buy a new specialist piece of equipment to safely move helicopters on the ground. This is vital to our daily operations.” Hayley Harvey, from the Morrisons store in Elland, close to the charity’s home

base, said: “It was great to present this cheque to a charity which provides vital support for people in Yorkshire.” n If you run a charity and would like to look into the Morrisons Foundation application process, visit www.morrisonsfoundation.com

Rebuilding her life

It’s bee a tough year for 20 year old Georgia Meyer, who suffered serious facial injuries as a result of a terrible car crash on the A61 near Ripon. The Yorkshire Air Ambulance arrived on the scene and fought to stem the bleeding from Georgia’s face, saving her life and air-lifting her to hospital. Since then she has had to deal with both the physical and emotional scars from the accident. “I don’t really remember the crash and at first I did not feel the pain as I had

sliced through lots of nerves in my face,” said Georgia. “But when they were trying to stop the bleeding it was agony. The air ambulance paramedics were really great at the scene and then checked up on me after I had had the operation to make sure I was okay, which was lovely. In fact, all of the NHS doctors and nurses were just amazing.” Georgia’s story is one of the YAA rescues being featured on the new TV series Helicopter ER, screening all this month on UKTV’s Really channel. Check out the show, and see other amazing helicopter rescues from across the county.

They need you

You might not think that knitting could help keep a chopper flying, but thanks to one determined woman from Hull, it might. Barbara Gardner recently hit the £1000 mark from knitting baby clothes, with all proceeds going to the air ambulance. Barbara is grateful to the charity after it saved her son’s life on the A64 in 2015. Her son, Steven Turner, had his arm badly crushed under the lorry he was driving when it was blown over in strong winds. The Yorkshire Air Ambulance arrived on the scene and not only helped save Steven’s life, but also his arm. “When your son has been that near to death and the air ambulance service that saved him relies solely on donations,” explained Barbara, “I felt I had to raise the £4,000 cost of the call-out. I love knitting and sell mainly baby clothes and soft toys – many under £5 – but it’s just my way of showing my appreciation and is the least I can do.”

This isn’t a cheery statistic, but if you have a heart attack outside of a hospital in the UK you have about a one in ten chance of surviving. We know, right? However, those odds instantly become better when you’re around people with CPR training... as one Harrogate couple discovered.

Doncaster Game Fair

Not just pilots with bandages As exciting as a helicopter rescue sounds, the people leaping from the vehicle to save the lives of countless thousands across our county are still very much doctors. The paramedics who travel aboard the helicopters are actually supplied by the Yorkshire Ambulance Service; an organisation funded by the NHS. Doctors are seconded to the air ambulance for a period of time, so even though they might be wearing a bright orange jumpsuit and a flight helmet, they’re still very much NHS staff.

The Yorkshire Ambulance Service also helps with the supply of medical equipment and training for the helicopter crews. Definitely the most exciting posting for a Yorkshire doctor, YAA recruits only the most skilled and talented medical experts, with recruitment taking place every three years. So hey, if you’re a doctor and you fancy it, check out the website for more info.

Jovan Bjelan, 55, was doing some DIY at home when he suffered sudden cardiac arrest. “I was upstairs and heard a loud thud,” explains his wife, Carolyn, “and when I found him I thought he must have fallen off the ladder. When I realised he wasn’t breathing there were a few seconds when I panicked and thought I can’t do this, but then the training kicked in and I knew I had to act quickly.”

Fortunately Carolyn had completed a First Aid course just weeks previously. “I started CPR and rang for the ambulance, putting them on speaker phone.

On the scene

The chopper responds The Yorkshire Air Ambulance medics arrived and managed to continue Carolyn’s vital efforts to get Jovan’s heart beating again. However, the decision was made to put him into a medically-induced coma before flying him to Leeds to receive urgent care. Luckily he managed to pull through and recover... something the YAA paramedics agree wouldn’t have been the case had Carolyn not administered CPR.

After a freak fall from her horse, in which the animal accidentally kicked her in the head, Huddersfield resident Karen Brooke, 51, was in a critical condition. Once picked up by the Yorkshire Air Ambulance and airlifted to hospital, it was discovered Karen had suffered from two fractures to her skull and had severe bleeding in her brain.

“I do feel really strongly that CPR training should be much more widely taught in workplaces, in the community and in every school,” says Carolyn. “We need to raise more awareness about the importance of having these skills.” If you’d like to learn the skills that saved Jovan’s life, visit www.scarboroughtec. ac.uk

“I was lucky to survive,” said Karen. “I had only a slight pulse when the Yorkshire Air Ambulance landed and I don’t think I would have made it without them. They saved my life.”

Fundraising tips

After being in a coma for two months following the accident, Karen then spent a further four months in hospital, learning to walk and talk again – such was the level of damage her brain had received. “When I came home I had carers four times a day, getting me up, cooking and putting me to bed. But I am very determined and, with lots of support from my family I have made myself get better so I can do things myself.”

YAA are extremely keen for everyone to have a crack at raising funds for the charity. To help, they’ve issued a list of tips and advice about how to go about your fundraising efforts. • Have fun. Make sure it will be a fundraising project that you will enjoy. If you are having a good time people are more likely to respond. • Keep it simple. The best fundraising projects are the simplest. Be realistic and cost out any expenditure carefully. Keep a checklist so you know exactly what needs to be done at every stage. • Keep it legal. Make sure you have liaised with your local Area Fundraising

Turning it around The great news is that Karen is now trying to give something back to the charity that saved her life. She’ll be taking part in a 260 mile cycle ride, organised by Huddersfield Town Football Club. She hopes to be able to cycle between 10 and 20 miles of each section of the route, in a bid to raise as much cash as she can for the air ambulance. This is a pretty impressive attempt, especially considering that Karen can currently only walk short distances with the help of a walking stick. However, she’ll riding a specially adapted tandem bike so her teammate can keep her safe. We wish all the very best!

Wild Animals kept as pets in Scarborough By Brad Bell

Contemporary styling and luxurious materials set the scene for luxe living. If you’re a fan of the decadent or a slave to the finer things in life, this is your spread.

IT HAS been uncovered that 13 wild animals are living as pets among us in the Scarborough area, including 1 monkey, 4 lemurs and 8 reptiles. The information was released by Born Free Foundation, whose aim is to ensure that all animals can live how they are supposed to, whether that being in the wild or in captivity - they want the government to review the Dangerous Wild Animals Act of 1976. As ‘cool’ as it might be to own one of these animals, Born Free claim that these animals are being kept in perhaps unsuitable conditions, putting themselves and people around them in danger. Just last year, a man in Hampshire was killed by his 8ft African rock python, Tiny. In a separate incident, police found an illegally kept 4ft caiman crocodile and 16 snakes at a property in Essex, nine of which were classed as dangerous. Seven other snakes were found dead in the house as a result of the poor conditions in which they had been kept. In comparison to Scarborough : Leeds, Selby and Ryedale all have no records of such animals being kept as pets, although it’s still possible that animals are being kept without the local authority’s knowledge. East Riding of Yorkshire had more wild animals living in it’s vicinity. Dr Chris Draper, Head of Animal Welfare and Captivity for Born Free, said: “The keeping of wild animals as pets is a growing concern. The widespread use of the internet has made it easier than ever to ‘order’ or purchase a wild animal without clarification as to where it has come from or how it should be cared for. Wild animals are particularly vulnerable to welfare problems because of their complex social, physical and behavioural needs. They require specific housing conditions, dietary requirements, and furthermore, the safety risk these animals pose to their owners and the wider public should not be ignored.”

A friendly welcome at Seven cafe By Dave Barry YOU will struggle to find a friendlier, more welcoming cafe in Scarborough than Seven, in York Place. An ever-growing legion of loyal regulars attests to the enduring popularity of the place. Up a short flight of elegant stone steps, Seven has been run for nine years by Caroline and Nick Hunt, who have a good team of staff. “It's flown by”, says Caroline, who has a catering background and once worked in her native Harrogate for Colin Anderson, a former pastry chef to the Queen. The couple moved to the coast when they bought Downcliffe Hotel on the seafront in Filey; they still live in Filey. When their two children grew up, they bought Haven cafe in Whitby. Then, in 2009, Seven came on the market and they snapped it up. “We thought it would be ideal”, says Caroline. The cafe was previously Burkinshaw and Woodcock estate agents. With over 40 seats around 22 tables, Seven is bigger than it looks from the front, going back a long way. Caroline says: “We throw all our energy into welcoming people and making them feel at home. We are lucky because we have a good supply of locals. We have a lot of regular customers; it’s like a big family”. A selection of newspapers is available. But in the summer, Seven is equally popular with visitors, who go again and again, Caroline adds. The cafe is on a

bus route, with stops just over the road. “We serve quick food at lunchtime, for workers who only have an hour”. Various menus offer everything from traditional food and sandwiches to local crab salad, wraps, smoothies and luxury milkshakes. Several afternoon teas are available, including a reasonably priced seafood option with smoked salmon, big juicy prawns, a home-made scone, a meringue and a brandy snap with fresh cream. As much of the food as possible is home-made, including the quiches. “We often have home-made blackcurrant and gooseberry jams”, says Caroline, adding: “We roast our own ham and chicken”. Seven is open Monday to Friday all year round except bank holidays.

Place the aubergine flesh side down on the grill and leave to brown for 5 minutes. Turn the aubergines over and put the halloumi slices on top. Close the barbecue lid and bake for 25 minutes. Just before serving, mix the mint and shallot together and scatter over the stuffed aubergines.

All Muck & Magic

Good reaction to plan for new school BY SHELIA JOHNSON

So here we are in mid summer and thankfully, we have had a drop or two of rain to water the gardens, pots and containers. The Muck and Magic Gardeners have been out and about visiting flowers shows and, most important of all, your own gardens in the annual Muck and Magic Gardens Competition. Roses have been magnificent and have benefitted from the dry weather. Mowing has almost stopped and the lawns are a bit brown but they will recover. Established borders have thrived because the plants have got their feet down into the soil and the usual rain that makes up a British Summer has been non existent and not able to spoil the flowers. However, there has been one star of every garden that we have visited and that is the bees! They have been loving this heatwave and it has been interesting to see which plants they are visiting most. We all know the value of being bee friendly in the garden and the consequences if we fail to look after them. So, this muck and magic gardener has taken a keen interest this summer in the types of plants bees are visiting and what to plant this Autumn if you want to create your own bee paradise in your garden. Single flowers seem to be more attractive than doubles as the pollen is easier to reach but there is a wide range of plants you could consider. Lavenders and heathers were well populated as you would expect but the bees were getting a real buzz from the ornamental alliums, particularly allium sphaerocephalon,

a smallish size plant on a strong stem with almost cone shaped purple flowers. These are hardy and can be planted in the borders or in containers in early autumn. Heleniums were also very popular. You could try a red variety called Moorheim Beauty. The achilleas were also doing good business with their flat heads making light work of pollen collection. Foxgloves and antirrhinums were also firm favourites. Helianthus Flying Saucers , a small sunflower, and all the Rudbeckias were attracting lots of bee attention. Don't forget the verbenas, the single flowered dahlias and all of the Salvia family if you are really serious about encouraging bees into your garden. Agastache is another good bee friendly plant and the lovely rich aniseed scent of the foliage will give some interest to you as you brush by. Finally remember to include a wide range of flowering trees, shrubs, perennials and bedding plants that will give blossom over a long period of time from early spring when the crocus and the fruit trees bloom to late autumn when the asters are in full flower in the border. Muck and Magic Garden Club is taking a holiday in August. There are still some seats available for the trip to Harrogate Autumn Flower Show on Saturday 15th September. The cost is £30 per person and this includes travel and a ticket into the show. More details from muckandmagic@ h o t m a i l . c o m Happy Gardening!

Scarborough Strata BY ROGER OSBORNE

Go west Do you ever go somewhere on holiday that is so nice that you want to tell everyone; but also so peaceful that you don’t want anyone to know? Well I feel that way about the Western Isles – formerly known as the Outer Hebrides. But since the islanders need visitors to make a living, then it’s OK to spread the word. The Western Isles comprise a chain of islands around 150 miles long, stretching from the large island of Lewis / Harris in the north, tapering down to the small island of Barra in the south. There are 200 islands altogether, just 14 of which are inhabited. Now to the geology. You could hardly get rocks more different to those on the Yorkshire coast. The islands are mostly made of a rock called Lewisian gneiss (pronounced ‘nice’). These are some of the oldest rocks on earth – up to 3,000 million years old, which is around two-thirds of the age of the planet. During that long history granites and

other igneous rocks have been reheated and pressurised producing spectacular banding and colouring in these extremely hard rocks. Just like here on our coast, the landscape reflects the amazing geology. On the east side each of the southern isles (which are my favourites to visit) has a line of gorgeous peaks, intercut by beautiful sea lochs; this is classic west of Scotland country full, at this time of year, of seals, otters and birds of prey. But on the western side, the islands are very flat with peat bogs covering the poorly drained land. Further west still is one of the most beautiful landscapes in Britain. This is the machair, a line of grass-covered sand dunes running for mile after mile north to south along the Atlantic coast. In spring the machair is covered in wildflowers and just over the hill is the Atlantic beach – white shell-sand and clear blue sea as far as the eye can see. Landscapes that make you glad to be alive.

Health and wellbeing - holiday hints A new Slimming World Group in town by Terry Anne Scholes THE SUN has filled us with thoughts of summer activities. Schools and colleges have finished exams and everyone is planning happy days, trips out, maybe to the countryside or the beach. Even if staying at home, be aware of changes in temperature and routines. Here are some tips. Sun lotion - always use an appropriate factor for your skin type and remember to renew it during the day, especially if you have been in the pool or had a dip in the sea. It is advisable to apply half an hour before going outside. Remember those places that burn the easiest, often the ankles, feet, noses and, yes, ears need to be protected too. Insect bites - if you are unfortunate enough to experience a bite, use cream to soothe it and keep a close eye on any changes to the bite. The skin can become quickly infected, in which case it will need professionally checking and maybe antibiotics or a blood test to establish what is happening. Medication - whether you are having a day out, a few more days or travelling, check you have your current medication with you. It is advised if travelling abroad you

take with you a copy of your medication prescription. Stay hydrated - enough fluids is equally important for all ages. Water is naturally the best resource. Always carry some with you and/or have access to water whatever activities you decide on. Alcohol in moderation is important, especially when travelling, as it does not hydrate the body during warm spells. Drink water alongside your chosen alcohol. Travel documents - it’s a great idea to take a photo of your passport and travel documents incase they are lost. The photos can be stored on your phone and emailed to yourself so you will have access to them regardless. Airports are becoming strict with children travelling with adults with a different name. This is due to an increase in child smuggling. If you have a different surname to your children, take documents with you to show your relationship. Bank cards and credit cards can also be photographed and saved to emails. I am doing mine this week ready for my travels. It’s a good idea to do this periodically. Happy holidays.

SCARBOROUGH slimmers looking to loose weight can now access an extra slimming world group each week.

TWO Americana fivepieces from distant lands delighted a capacity crowd at Woodend in Scarborough. The Roamin' Jasmine, from New Orleans, and Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes, from Australia, said they felt at home even though they were thousands of miles away from home. With 80 people, Woodend’s gallery was full to overflowing and people had to be turned away. Lachlan Bryan commented: “It’s great to be playing in a room with a window wall overlooking a beautiful park”. The gig was organised by Filey Americana buff Chris Lee, whose next offering rejoices in the unusual name of I See Hawks in LA (10 Aug). Described in Mojo magazine as “the best country rock band on the planet”, the band

recently released their first record for five years. “The reviews have been uniformally ecstatic”, says Chris. “Their songs have a strong ecological imprint and utilise roots, rock and psych styles with transcendent steel guitar to channel life’s agonies. “Rob Waller’s rich baritone dominates, with stunning three-part harmonies reminiscent of Gram Parsons, the Eagles and Poco”, Chris says. Expect “cosmic Californian roots with a few humorous curve balls”, he adds. Tickets cost £10. * Charley Crockett, who played at Woodend on 21 July, was on the Andrew Marr TV show the next morning.

Three artists and three genres feature in the latest exhibition at Blandscliff Gallery in Scarborough. The artists are Ruth Miemczyk, Lee Jenkinson and Neil Tyler. The exhibition runs until 2 September.

Every picture tells a story AN art exhibition by students on two Workers’ Education Association courses can be seen at Woodend until the end of summer. The students have used the work of Beryl Cook, Edward Hopper, Paula Rego and the women surrealists as inspiration to create artworks in paint, pastel and collage. Tutor Ruth Collett says: “They have produced some fantastic work for this exhibition which tells a range of stories; funny, joyful, strange, emotional and wonderful”. The WEA regularly runs painting, drawing and art-history courses at Woodend.

They are free to people on most benefits. A course in September, entitled Women, War, Work & Suffrage, will look at women artists from 1910-45. The library has brochures with details of all WEA courses in Scarborough and information on how to enrol. Or go to wea.org.uk or ring 0300 303 3464. Woodend is open from 10am–4pm daily.

Top choir returns Open-Air Theatre season is the best yet for annual festival

WITH most of this year’s concerts either sold out or not far off, Scarborough’s Open-Air Theatre is having its most successful season to date. The 6,000-seat auditorium has hosted 13 shows to date, opening with Lionel Ritchie. Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds played Oasis classics Little by Little, Wonderwall, Half the World Away, Go Let it Out and Don’t Look Back in Anger. The set included Fort Knox, Holy Mountain and Beautiful World from Gallagher’s #1 album Who Built the Moon? Stereophonics’ set included such classic songs as Local Boy in the Photograph, The Bartender and the Thief, Just Looking, Maybe Tomorrow, Dakota and Have a Nice Day. Nothing went Pete Tong when the DJ, producer and presenter played Ibiza Classics with the Heritage Orchestra and vocalist Becky Hill.

Classical crossover quartet Il Divo were joined on stage by Britain’s Got Talent group Bring it North. Coming up next are Texas (11 Aug), James Arthur (12 Aug, postponed from 26 July), Britney Spears (17 Aug) and James (18 Aug). Tickets for Texas and James can be booked by ringing 818111 or 383636 and online. Tickets for Britney were the most expensive, ranging from £180-£457, yet sold out immediately. Yorkshire band Ten Millennia, who are supporting Texas, are also playing a free gig at Watermark on Friday 3 August.

Colne Valley Male Voice Choir

ONE of the country’s most distinguished choirs returns to Queen Street Central Hall this summer. The Colne Valley Male Voice Choir, formed in 1922, is headlining the church’s annual music festival, on 18 August. The ensemble, which has won countless competitions, performs about a dozen times a year. Venues have included York Minster, Harewood House, Fountains Abbey, Preston Guild Hall, Fairfield Hall in Croydon and the Albert Hall in London. The choir will be joined by Opera North soprano Victoria Sharp and tenor Campbell Russell. Tenor Martin Dunn will open the festival on Friday 17 August. Both concerts will also feature three

regular performers: organist Simon Lindley, cornetist Phillip McCann and pianist Keith Swallow. Keith has been the choir’s accompanist for over 50 years, says Christine Cox, who has been running the festival for many years. She has been promoting concerts like this since the 1980s and organising excursions for 43 years. “As usual, there will be a very mixed programme of music at both evenings,” says Christine. “Regular visitors travel from Stranraer, the Midlands and the South of England.” The concerts will start at 7.45pm. Tickets cost £12 (concessions £10) and can be bought at Record Revivals in Northway and on the door.

Spa stage extended for large orchestra

Conductor Renato Balsadonna and the Orchestra of Opera North at the Spa

Words and photos by Dave Barry ONE of the most recognisable motifs in classical music opened Ryedale Festival’s Scarborough outreach concert at the Spa Grand Hall. The four notes at the start of Beethoven’s magnificent fifth symphony returned again and again in the four movements which followed. Completed in 1808, and premiered at the same time as the German composer’s sixth symphony, the fifth is one of the central masterpieces of classical music; it changed the face of music. The Spa show was a rare opportunity to see the Orchestra of Opera North play alone, as

it normally performs with the Opera North chorus. With about 60 members, the orchestra is about twice the size of the one Beethoven had in mind. The Spa stage had to be extended, at a loss of about three rows of stalls and some 70 seats. I enjoyed it but my companion, who is infinitely more knowledgeable when it comes to classical music - especially Beethoven, was disappointed. He found it staid, poorly balanced and under-rehearsed. Perhaps the orchestra was emulating its predecessor at the premiere, which rehearsed the piece only once. He enjoyed the next piece, whereas I didn’t. I’ve always struggled with classical singing. Mezzo-soprano Kathryn Rudge sang Elgar’s Sea Pictures. We both enjoyed Brahms’ fourth symphony after the interval. His first was cruelly dubbed Beethoven’s 10th by critics: Brahms felt the weight of German musical history, especially Beethoven’s legacy, on his shoulders, and it showed in his music.

Free talk on meditation A FREE talk entitled The Art of Meditation will be given at the Friends Meeting House on 3 September, at 7pm. It will look at what meditation is and how anyone can learn to meditate. The talk will show how, through meditating regularly, people can enjoy wonderful benefits that transform and improve the quality of their lives. Meditation can be used to overcome anxiety and stress. The talk will be given by teacher Geoff Collier who has been practising and studying

Kadampa Buddhism for 10 years. It will be complemented by a simple but profound guided meditation that those present will be able to practise at home. Refreshments will be served at the end of the evening. Everyone is welcome. The talk will kick off a series of meditation classes taught by Geoff on Mondays at the same time and venue. Seating is on chairs and there’s no need for special clothing. The Friends Meeting House is on Quaker Close near Scarborough Hospital.

Words and photos by Dave Barry A MODEL railway exhibition in Filey raised £1,145 for St John’s Church in West Avenue, where it was held. It was attended by about 300 people. Organiser Christopher Martin of Burniston ran a similar show at Westborough Methodist Church last year. It was seen by Christine Wilson of St John’s who invited Christopher to do one in Filey. Christopher asked friends from Scarborough, Harrogate, Shildon and York to collaborate on the Filey exhibition, which had nine working layouts. Christopher’s, called Peak Forest, recreated a railway station by an enormous quarry in the Peak district. “There are loads of trains filling up with stone all day long”, he says. Scarborough model-railway enthusiast Elaine Bentley’s finely detailed fantasy layout was called Knotoscalia - because it isn’t to scale. She says it took several months to make, using foam, fabric, cotton reels and sparkling sea beads as ballast under the tracks. The exhibition featured a trade stand, refreshments and plenty of interactive fun. The proceeds will help repair and restore the St John’s building, to enable community use for many years to come. The hall at the back of the church has been Christopher Martin and Alan Woodford of Scarborough (to order photos ring 353597)

Elaine Bentley and her Knotoscalia used by numerous community organisations since the 1970s. They include Slimming World, U3A, a dementia activity group, a hand-bell group, guides, brownies, a toddler group, a chairobics class and an allotment group. The church has a plan, called 2020Vision, to restore the hall, which is now called the Parish Centre.

Fun day at pub raises £270k for dementia appeal

August 2018 - Issue 60

Art exhibition inspired by landscape AN exhibition by two Scarborough artists can be seen at Woodend from 4-30 August. Soulscapes, inspired by landscape, is by Rob Moore and Wendy Tate. Wendy’s work is deeply felt. It is often a metaphor for feelings and events in her life that find expression through her love of landscape, particularly reflections, light and trees. Rob’s work in oils, mixed media and printmaking is more abstract and sometimes suggests threats to the environment. Both artists live and work in Alma Square,

where they have studios and printmaking workshops for their use and that of other artists. They share their experiences and skills with others via artist-led workshops which are a foil for the more quiet and solitary life that they lead as creative practitioners. They are working towards an exhibition at the Inspire gallery in Danby in October and curating a parallel show there. It will include the work of several other artists working with print, jewellery and ceramics, who are similarly interested in the natural world.

Words and photo by Dave Barry A fun day at the Duchess pub in Scarborough raised £270,000 for a dementia appeal. The York Teaching Hospital charity is trying to raise £200,000 to support patients living with dementia during their stay in hospital. Pub manager Tracy Boulton said 10% of the proceeds of the fun day would go to Scarborough Hospital, for its dementia patients. The fundraiser, staged in the pub’s large garden, enjoyed a good turnout, Tracy said. “We had a lot of locals and a lot of people we

haven’t seen before. It puts us on the map as doing more than just funerals, which is what a lot of people know us for. “The Hatton dancers and Andy Desa’s Desapline martial arts academy were popular”, Tracy said. Pub landlord Peter Ireland and his partner Debbie Wilkinson confirmed that another fundraiser would be held on the August bankholiday weekend. It will feature live music, a bouncy castle, a supervised pool, various stalls, Desapline and a barbecue.

Big, big jazz bands for festival

Stan Sulzmann’s Neon Orchestra BIG-BAND lovers are in for a treat at Scarborough’s annual jazz festival. Two outstanding big bands have been booked for the last day: Stan Sulzmann’s Neon Orchestra and Gareth Lockrane’s Big Band. Rarely, if ever, will the Spa Grand Hall have had so many top UK musicians playing together. Stan Sulzmann, whose CV reads like a who’s who of jazz, has worked with Michael Brecker, Kenny Wheeler, John Taylor, Marc Copeland and Gil Evans. Festival director Mike Gordon says: “He is a brilliant saxophonist with an instantly recognisable sound who commands an enormous amount of respect not only for his great playing but also his compositional originality. “The writing and arranging is all Stan’s. His big-band arrangements are regularly played by college and university bands”. The band is directed by trumpeter Nick Smart and features, among others, Pete Hurt, James Allsop, Henry Lowther, Noel Langley, Nikki Iles, Dave Whitford and Tim Giles. The band is “ravishing, delicious, powerful and direct”, according to a review in the Guardian. "This is a rare chance to see one of the most original and exciting big bands working anywhere in Europe”, Mike says. Gareth Lockrane, generally recognised as the UK’s premier jazz flautist, plays a wide range of flutes including the alto and bass varieties.

Gareth Lockrane’s Big Band He is a highly respected composer, arranger, band leader and pianist. Mike, who has known Gareth for some years, says: “I’ve seen Gareth achieve incredible results with students on a jazz course in France. So imagine what he can produce with leading professional jazz musicians, who include Steve Fishwick, Graham Blevins, Sam Mayne, Adrian Fry, Ross Stanley and Mike Outram”. London Evening Standard reviewer Jack Massarick wrote: “The lean and hungry Lockrane is the most exciting and inventive instrumentalist in the country”. Festival compere Alan Barnes will be playing with his octet and with Dave Newton. Sharing the bill are Andchunk, the Ben Crosland Quintet (playing the Ray Davies songbook), Jo Harrop as Peggy Lee, Henry Lowther’s Still Waters, the Matt Ridley Quartet, Nerija, the Nigel Price Organ Quartet, the Terry Seabrook Quintet, Atlantic Crossover, Vimala Rowe sings Billie Holliday with John Etheridge and Woody Black 4. The festival runs from 28-30 September at the Spa. For tickets, ring 821888 or visit the festival website.

SCARBOROUGH’S role the Peasant's Revolt of 1381 features in a new book documenting changes in the English countryside. Kill All the Gentlemen is by Martin Empsom, who says: “Scarborough is a fitting place to hold a launch meeting as it was one of the few northern towns to rise up”. The book shines a light on ordinary people’s struggles for their rights, to defend faith and community and ensure the countryside could be used in the interests of the people who lived and worked it. From food riots to attacks on threshing machines, and from the Tolpuddle Martyrs to the rise of the agricultural trade unions, it is the history of the forgotten struggles that have shaped our countryside and the

modern farming system. The book title is a quote from an unsuccessful anti-enclosure rising in Oxfordshire in 1596 and a slogan used in both the Lincolnshire rising of 1536 and Kett’s rebellion in 1549. Empson is a socialist and environmental campaigner whose previous book, Land & Labour, is a history of humankind’s relationship with the environment. History buffs, socialists, trade unionists, environmental campaigners and “the perpetually curious” were invited to the book launch, at the Railwaymen’s Club next to the railway station. It was hosted by Scarborough Socialist Workers Party. Kill All the Gentlemen is published by Bookmarks Publications, at £14.99.

were the irrepressible Skandals on the Friday night and the Railroad Hobos on Sunday lunchtime. The music marquee doubled as a beer tent, run by the Great Yorkshire Brewery in Cropton. The traditional maritime flavour was created by coble and keelboat displays, free tours of Royal Navy patrol boats and a replica of HMS Pickle, a ‘shellfish tour’ and maritime heritage displays. Scarborough Hospitality Association arranged cooking demonstrations by prominent Yorkshire chefs and Hidden Horizons ran guided seaside walks.

SEAFEST was as busy as ever, despite strong competition in both bays on the main night. As Iricana Moonshine and Friday Street performed in Seafest’s music marquee on the West Pier, hundreds of people were attending a classical concert by a professional orchestra at the Spa and thousands were watching Il Divo at the Open-Air Theatre. The 20th annual three-day Seafest had the usual popular blend of live music, street theatre, a fabulous firework display, about 40 craft and food stalls and all sorts of activities.

Sticky end for balloon debate losers PROTAGONISTS will be thrown out of a hotair balloon - metaphorically - at an unusual debate in Scarborough. Four speakers will represent four historical characters in the basket of a leaking hot-air balloon. Each has to argue the case for their character to stay in the basket by saying how they have benefited humanity. The audience can ask questions before voting for one of the participants to be thrown out of the basket. This continues until only one is left.

The debate will be jointly hosted by the United Nations Association, which has chosen scientist Alexander Fleming and suffragist Millicent Fawcett; and the Forty Club, which has chosen television inventor John Logie Baird and radio and telegraph developer Guglielmo Marconi. It will be at the Unitarian Church Hall in Victoria Parade, opposite the top of Victoria Road, at 7.30pm on 8 August. Everyone is welcome. No charge will be made for admission and refreshments. Both clubs are looking for new members so this is an ideal chance to check them out.

Grease is the word at YMCA THE YMCA in Scarborough is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Grease with a summer production of the hit musical. A fun-filled and entertaining evening for all the family is promised by the youth theatre company YMCA Productions. Grease the Musical, which is being performed three times a week until 30 August, includes the songs Summer Nights, You’re the One That I Want and Grease is the Word. “Our cast of nearly 40 local performers have been rehearsing since May and are really excited to perform it to packed houses throughout the six-week summer holiday”, says director James Aconley. “Our summer season is always a big hit, for local theatregoers and holidaymakers alike. We think our 2018 season, with Grease as the headline production, will be our best summer season yet”.

“If you want an evening full of laughter, catchy tunes and energetic dance routines, all brought together by the much-loved characters made famous by the fantastic movie, then Grease is the show for you this summer”, James says. The production team also includes choreographer Jenny Hollingworth, who made her debut with the YMCA’s creative team in Fame earlier this year, and Maisie Atkinson as musical director. Alongside Grease, another seven productions make up the season at the YMCA Theatre, including Monday Showtime from Hatton Productions and Big Night Out from Rowlies Academy of Dance. Grease can be seen on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. For tickets and further information visit www.ymcascarborough.uk or ring 506750.

Town’s first vegan festival spreads the word Words and photos by Dave Barry Scarborough’s first vegan festival was a runaway success. About 40 stalls and various entertainers filled the Spa Ocean Room. Countless conversations flowed between like-minded souls, sharing ideas and ideals. There was a good mix of stalls featuring food, drinks, gifts and toiletries. Easily the most popular stall, judging by the long queue, was selling burgers, cakes, etc. Stalls mounted by campaign and pressure groups supported vegan-organic gardening and opposed fracking and animal-hunting. Entertainment was provided by the Magic Ball Man and stilts-man Feet First for children; and, from the stage, musicians Roz, Jas Kalli, Rich Gibbon, Barbara Helen and Liam Wright. Liam was one of four speakers, along with Psycho Syd, Elizabeth King and Clare Bennett. The Magic Ball Man - Steve Bullen - is pictured with Sue Hawthornthwaite and a platter containing her chilli cheese scones

and Una Beaumont’s chocolate chip cookies. Festival organiser Shena Louise has run many similar events up and down the country. The proceeds help fund an animal sanctuary near Grimsby, where she lives, although donations will be made to the other animal sanctuaries which take part. “We aim to show people how important and easy it is to follow a vegan lifestyle that benefits animals and humans alike”, Shena said. “We also hope to bust some myths that vegan food is boring and tasteless. Some of the food and cakes have to be seen to be believed!” * A vegan festival will be held at the Spa in Bridlington on Sunday 5 August.

£850 raised for Kidney Research By Dave Barry MEMBERS and friends of Scarborough’s Rotary and Inner Wheel clubs teamed up for a fundraising event in aid of Kidney Research Yorkshire. It was held at the Stained Glass Centre in Killerby, courtesy of owners Simon and Val Green. It raised £850. In 1971, following the sudden death of a member’s son from kidney failure, the Rotary Club of Scarborough raised money to buy a property overlooking Peasholm Park to provide a holiday home for people requiring dialysis and their families. The Kidney Home opened in 1972. A bedroom was converted so dialysis could be

provided, enabling families to have holidays together. One of the Rotarians’ wives, Caroline Chapman, organised a rota of meeters and greeters to welcome guests, oversee the housekeeping, etc. Little did Caroline know that many years down the line she would develop serious kidney problems. In the not-too-distant future, she will require dialysis. In the 1990s, demand for the facility fell and the people who ran it, in Leeds, decided to stop using it. However, the property is still owned by the club and used by other charitable organisations.

Jenson, 4, says: ‘I’ll do it, mummy!’ by Dave Barry A four-year-old Scarborough boy has been chosen to join Russian State Opera on stage at the Spa. Jenson Metcalfe began dancing and acting at home almost as soon as he learnt to walk and talk. The seed was sown early in life. His mum, Lisa Metcalfe, used to take Jenson to Spa Orchestra flautist Kathy Seabrook’s fun-music sessions at the Spa when he was a baby. Then Kathy started to do sessions at the Little Owls pre-school group, which Jenson attended, so he got to take part in her wonderful music sessions again. Through her connections at the Spa, Kathy heard of the search for a local boy to take part in a forthcoming production of Madama Butterfly and mentioned it to Jackie Hunter, who runs Little Owls. “Their first thought was Jenson. Before I’d even finished explaining the concept of opera to him, his hand shot up in the air with ‘I’ll do it, mummy!’,” Lisa says. Jenson will play the part of Madama Butterfly’s son, who is called Trouble. The production is at the Spa Grand Hall on 1 September, at 7.30pm. The performance will be the first of 12 in a tour of England. Madama Butterfly, by Puccini, is one of the world’s most colourful and exotic operas. The tale of the doomed love of an American naval lieutenant and his Japanese bride inspired Puccini and librettists Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa to write some of the

Jenson Metcalfe will play Madama Butterfly’s son most sublime and moving opera music. Set in Japan at the turn of the 20th century, Madama Butterfly is among the most vibrant and, ultimately, tragic of operas. From its theme of noble self-sacrifice come the most heart-rending melodies. Ticket prices range from £31.92 to £34.16 plus a 5% booking fee if bought in person at the box office. Telephone and online bookings are subject to a fee of 12% of the face value plus a ‘fulfilment fee’ of £2 per transaction if tickets are posted or £1 if they are collected.

NO BATTLE, ANOTHER VICTORY Scarborough Athletic commentator, Ant Taylor looks forward to the new season.

WITH the World Cup now over, I can’t believe how close it is You can find him on Twitter @Iamradioant to the start of a new season in the Evo-stik League. This time Scarborough make their debut in the Premier Division (the league the old club would have been relegated to them 11 years ago). I went down to the Scarborough Indoor Market where a few Seadogs fans went to see the new kit and some of the players including a few new faces to the club. The board and manager Steve Kittrick are forming a formidable force to try and get back to back promotions. The chairman Trevor Bull says he’d Michael Coulson, Tom Morgan, Tommy Taylor & Leon Scott like to be standing in front of showing off the new Scarborough Athletic kit. season with only Jamie Price who has signed the fans, with another banner for Worksop Town. On the kit launch Tommy saying “we’re going up”. Just that 2 minute speech has got me hooked Taylor, Sam Hewitt, Michael Coulson the thinking we can do this, with the signings of golden Boot winner for Evo-stik North and defender Kev Burgess and midfielder Leon James Walshaw the leagues top goal scorer, Scott from Darlington showing the intent and the seadogs are going to be a team full of the pulling power Scarborough Athletic has goals. at the moment as the stadium is matching its The fixtures will be coming out soon and with capacity and creating an atmosphere that is the treat of some new teams as well as some something rare for these footballers to come reunited rivalries this season will be more across. Also with the other signings we have exciting than last season. It will be great to get brought in, I just wish the season started another home fixture for the first game, but much sooner. Last season our starlight was getting a result beating the two 0-0 draws from Max Wright who has now got a new contract last season against Hyde United or Bamber at parent club Grimsby Town, but I’m sure we Bridge the season before. I’m sure we’ll be have a few new players who could take that meeting our nearest rivals Whitby Town role on. Ex-Hull City and Tadcaster Albion over the Christmas period and maybe South forward Will Annan, is a quality player. I saw Shields on a bank holiday. The Shields boys him play for the brewers against us and he will be looking for revenge after we turned looked alert, tricky and full of energy. We them over on New Years Day on their manor also have another local lad, Wayne Brooksby and we will be up for matches definitely at formally of Bradford Park Avenue and home and after how last season ended we will Scarborough Town, he’s looking for goals and sure to be rocking on them away days. Here’s to another great season following the assists the youngster from Driffield. There are most of the old faces from last BORO!

Sportive road ride attracts 150 entrants Words and photos by Dave Barry ABOUT 150 cyclists of all ages gathered on Oliver's Mount for the annual Sportive d’Scarborough road ride. The gruelling course, with many steep hills in the Wolds, had 30- and 60-mile options. The most arduous section was the Whitegates climb, between Folkton and Hunmanby. The route went south, across Cayton Carrs to Hunmanby and Reighton. In Burton Fleming, riders could either return via Fordon or take the extra 30-mile loop via Thwing, Foxholes, Weaverthorpe, Langtoft, Kilham and Rudston. Refreshments were served at Burton

Fleming village hall. The ride was organised by Bryden Simpson and Chris Goode of Richardsons Cycle Club as its contribution to Scarborough cycling festival. It was started by the mayor, Cllr Joe Plant, and supported by Cooplands of Scarborough, HPE printers of Pickering, Blue Keld of Driffield and Ridings Travel of Bridlington. Sarah Barrowby and Steve Atkinson raised over £500 for the Stroke Association. In addition to the sportive ride, the cycling festival featured closed circuit road and cyclo cross racing for adults and children. www.scarboroughcyclingfestival.uk

Cricket tournament suffers from low entries Words and photos by Dave Barry THE semi-finals and final of the annual primary schools cricket competition were held at Scarborough Cricket Club. Although the competition is open to all primary schools in the area, the only entries were from

Cayton, Seamer & Irton, Gladstone Road and Lindhead schools. The final was played between two teams from Seamer & Irton, who beat teams from Gladstone Road and Lindhead in the semi-finals. Trophies were presented to the winners and

runners-up by the borough mayor, Cllr Joe Plant. The competition is organised by Scarborough and District Primary Schools Sports Association, which is chaired by Jon Wanlass, the head teacher at Seamer & Irton.

Mr Wanlass said: “We would like to increase the number of entries, which has been dwindling over recent years, as it is an important development from the more widely played kwik cricket”.

A river of pink flows along seafront Words and photos by Dave Barry DESPITE the clash with England’s World Cup semi-final, a hundred more people turned out for the annual Race for Life, if the official figures are to be believed. Last year, about 1,200 people took part. This year, some 1,300 women, girls, boys, at least one man and a few dogs ran, jogged or walked either 10km or 5km, depending on how fit and energetic they felt. The first back took 21 minutes for the 5k race and 44 for the 10k. The race began at the Sea Life Centre carpark and went through the open-air theatre then round the Marine Drive and back. Nearly everyone wore something pink. At the start, the deputy mayor, Cllr Dilys Cluer, spoke on stage and encouraged the participants before counting them down. The entry fees were £15 for adults and £10 for children. Race for Life is a series of women-only fundraising events organised by Cancer Research UK. They involve running, jogging or walking and raising sponsorship. The money raised funds research into all 200 types of cancer.

Darts and dominoes teams celebrate at Spa

TWO of Scarborough’s top footballers have applied their skills to footgolf. Scarborough Athletic striker Michael Coulson and midfielder Jimmy Beadle worked their way around the woodland section of an adventure footgolf course. They had to navigate their way around the twists and turns of Cherry Wood in Killerby Lane, Cayton. The wood is full of obstacles such as tyres, bridges and tunnels. But the main obstacles are the sycamore, oak, horse chestnut and cherry trees. “Players hit the trees more than anything else”, says Val Green, who runs the course with her husband Simon. Each of the nine holes has a different hazard, or obstruction, beginning with what looks like a goal, with a dummy goalkeeper stretched out between the posts.

It’s been named Tommy, after Boro goalie Tommy Taylor. However, there is absolutely no resemblance, says Boro chairman Trevor Bull, who accompanied Michael and Jimmy. The new course is “more tactical” than the open-air one, Val says. “It has had favourable reactions and is good for mixed abilities and age groups. It poses a different challenge to that of our regular nine-hole course”. The ball has to remain on the ground most of the time, to stand a chance of setting a new course record. Simon prepared the wood by thinning out the trees and installing a 350m rabbit-proof fence around the perimeter. The open-air part of the course, which opened in September 2016, covers nine acres. The new section is one and a half acres.

MICRO MINIS IN ACTION AT SILVER ROYD

How quickly our heat wave summer is passing and it’s over three months since Scarborough RUFC’s promotion-winning league season ended back in April. Pre-season training is underway and is well attended but as yet no announcement has been made regarding recruitment and retention ahead of the challenge of playing at level 6 in North One East. However the Seasiders have arranged a couple of pre-season games at Silver Royd. First up on August the 11th are Stockport RUFC. The Cheshire-based club were playing in National Two North only five years ago but following a couple of relegations now play in North One West at the same level as Scarborough. The following week on Friday the 18th at 7pm Yorkshire One side Hullensians are the visitors to Silver Royd; both of Scarborough’s games against the Humbersiders last season were close-fought affairs with Simon Smith’s charges victorious on both occasions, winning 29-17 on the road at Hull and 26-17 at Silver Royd. Both opponents should provide a stiff test for the ‘class of 18/19.’ August will end with the club’s 14th Annual Reunion on Friday the 31st. The brainchild of former President and Captain Barry Beanland the reunion has been a great success since the inaugural event in 2005. A service in the Memorial Garden at 6.30pm will be followed

COULD THIS BE 2034s PLAYER OF THE YEAR by Tag rugby, Walking Rugby and Walking football open to men, women, boys and girls. A buffet will follow at 8.30pm followed by presentations including 75 and over veterans and first team shirts for the coming season. The festivities will conclude with a 50s, 60s and 70s disco to celebrate Barry’s 80th birthday. As at previous reunions a particular decade will be featured and this year it’s the 1980’s the decade in which leagues were introduced to rugby union (1987) and many past players and members from that era will be attending and featured in the photographic display. Having won last season’s Yorkshire Challenge Shield and having moved up to the Rugby Football Union (RFU) level 6, Scarborough has qualified to play in the top tier of the county’s knockout competitions, The Yorkshire Cup. ‘T’owd Tin Pot’ was first played for in 1877 and is the oldest club knockout competition in the world. However the powers that be at Silver Royd have decided not to enter the competition in order to concentrate on the league next season. I must admit that I was surprised by the decision but following their success in league and Shield last season I will put my complete trust in the superior judgement of Simon and his coaching staff.

HUNMANBY players prevailed in the Eastfield over-60s doubles merit bowling tournament. The final featured three players from the village: Billy Holdsworth, Harry Old and Neil Ledingham. The bowling green was more like a bowling brown; it was parched and felt like coarse hessian fabric. But it didn’t spoil the contest, as pairs played at right angles across each other, occasionally hitting each others’ woods. Eastfield Bowling Club’s competition secretary David Wicks said: “We had a good day’s bowling. “The weather was very good with good bowling in matches”. In the quarter-finals, Derrick Swift of North Cliff and Joe Hobson of Duke’s Park beat Phil

and Lynn Rippingale of Duke’s Park 21-17; Harry Old and Neil Ledingham of Hunmanby beat Sheila Dyson of Brid Bay and Peter Linford of Whitby 21-12; Billy Holdsworth of Hunmanby and Ray Leeman of Whitby beat Alan Standing and Keith Davey of Brid Bay 21-18; and Ed McCormack and Pat Germaine of North Cliff beat David Moment and Bob Davies of North Cliff 21-15. In the semi-finals, Harry and Neil beat Derrick and Joe 21-13; and Billy and Ray beat Ed and Pat 21-8. In the final, Billy and Ray beat Harry and Neil 21-14, becoming winners for the third time in four years. Mr Wicks said he was grateful to everybody who had helped out with measuring, providing food, running a raffle and helping out. “And a big thank you to Les Craggs for keeping the merit running smooth. It was a great help”.

Filey housing plan ‘still not right’ Dear Editor Just an update on the McCarthy and Stone planning application for site HA24, pertaining to land off Church Cliff Drive, Filey. Darnton B3, the architects for the developers, have drawn up and submitted a revised plan. The planners have addressed amenity and privacy issues highlighted down the Wooldale Drive boundary by altering the layout of the bungalows. However, they have not altered the apartment block. It remains two storey and 39 apartments plus the 20 bungalows; still 59 dwellings/ residencies. This continues to be in conflict with the housing land selection methodology assessment, the housing allocation assessment paper within the local plan which states “indicative yield maximum 30 dwellings”. Also, the conservation officer states “single-storey development” specifically on this site. The Scarborough local plan inspectors report dated 9 February 2017 concluded that the allocation of site HA23 (now HA24) for residential development and the indicative yield of 30 dwellings is justified. The current proposal represents an almost 100% over-development. The proposed bund on the top edge of this plan is outside of the development red-line boundary and Filey town development limits. This is in breach of planning policies and regulations which state: “The application site should be edged clearly with a red line on the location plan. It should include all land necessary to carry out the proposed development”. This proposed bund is not included in the already planned and passed Filey flood alleviation scheme plans that are separate from

this application. Many unresolved issues are still current within the planning application 17/02374/FL, as stated in the representations previously submitted to planning services at SBC, and should still be considered in this application. Yorkshire Water’s flood risk assessment and mitigation are still unacceptable. Financial contributions by the developer in reference to misinterpreted green space, plus no affordable housing in the proposed bungalows or a contribution of £588,000 (what can only be described as a buy-out clause or a legal bung paid to SBC). NYCC heritage services - archaeology finds from the site assessment trench digs have identified the area as a site of archaeological significance and requires a written statement of investigation, which has not been completed. The housing strategy and development officer states: “We are concerned that the report contains flaws and inaccuracies, especially in terms of the evidence base” and “there is an over-provision of rented housing for the elderly in the borough”. The developer and planners are pushing beyond the boundaries of acceptable development for this proposed amended plan. The consequence is the proposed plan has been over-developed to make it viable. John Mook - Church Cliff Drive, Filey

Thank you

Dear editor On behalf of everyone at Newby & Scalby in Bloom, we would like to say a big thank you to you for all the support you have given us. We are very grateful how you always support our events and publish them in the Review. Thanks again. Sue Groom - Hirstead Road, Newby

SCAM BUSTERS!

The world is a brilliant place, but unfortunately there are a few dodgy characters out there. Don’t worry though, we’ll keep you safe and informed with our regular Scam Busters feature! Guard your pension Have a pension? If so, make sure you know who it is with and who to trust when talking about it. Recently a number of people across Yorkshire have reported receiving a call from someone claiming to be from a Government scheme that looks into people's pensions. They claim to offer help and advice, and to check if their potential victim is paying any unnecessary fees. They ask for details of the pension, such as who it is with, the person's National Insurance number, and possibly also bank account details. The scam, so the police believe, is intended to access both the the pension money and to harvest your personal details to use for other crimes. Some people have also reported that the caller insisted that they be visited by one of their so-called representatives to sign some paperwork to allow them to make these bogus checks. The nerve! To protect your pension, make sure you know all the details of it, but never give those details out over the phone. The chances are you will never receive a telephone call about you pension, and should be contacted in writing – a letter with contact details that you can check online and against documentation you already possess. Oh, and if someone says they are sending someone to your house to collect a signature – while they wait – it is definitely a scam. Stay safe.

Not Argos Ever ordered something from retailer Argos? If so, chances are you received a text from the company telling you that the product was ready for collection. However, an increasing number of people have begun to get texts, seemingly from Argos, asking them to click on a link about a supposed parcel, one they haven't ordered. The link, once clicked, takes the user to a scam site, often promoting the sale of cheap iPhones. However, the site is loaded with malware which could be automatically downloaded to the victim's phone and used to harvest personal information. Email addresses, passwords, and possibly even bank account info could be stolen as a result of visiting the dodgy site, and all from a legitimate-looking text from Argos. Our advice? Even if you get a text from an existing thread with Argos, such as one you might have received last Christmas if you shopped with them, never click a link. Check your Argos account online to see if there are any packages waiting for you – real ones that you have ordered. If not, report the text immediately by calling Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040.
