Brooke battles back from brain injury to support fellow sufferers Words & picture by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

A SCARBOROUGH man who suffered a serious brain injury in a hit and run accident is now using his experience to help others going through a similar thing.

Brooke Trotter, 33, was hit by a car in 2007, during his time studying in Manchester, and following a long road back to recovery, he is now doing public talks and has set up a blog to lend his support to fellow brain Brooke Trotter (second from left) with Headway chairman Mark injury sufferers.

Hollinghurst and secretary Julie Wilkinson before Brooke’s speech at He said: “I was hit by a The Street in Scarborough car after a night out and my head went through the windscreen. I was in a coma for 16 days and then had a long road back to recovery including spells in three different hospitals in the Manchester area.

“What I was shocked about was how little information and knowledge there was for people who had suffered brain injuries, so I wanted to do something to change that a bit. That is why I decided to start the blog and do public talks with the likes of Headway (the brain injury association).”

Brooke, who was a pupil at both Northstead and Scalby Schools in Scarborough now lives in Manchester and volunteers for the BASIC (Brain & Spine Injury Centre). More on page 2.

Brooke with his mum Wendy at the Great North Run this year

BROOKE has also used fitness to help him recover as well as supporting brain injury charities.

He added: “Doctors told me that if I had not been as fit and healthy as I was I may not have made such a good recovery.

“I have been doing a lot of running and decided to raise money for both Headway and BASIC at some 10k events and I also did the Great North Run this year.

“It is a fantastic way of giving back to these groups who are doing good work with people who went through what I did.

“Fitness and good breathing all help in supplying oxygen to the brain, which is extremely important.

“I was lucky that I survived the accident and although I still have problems today, I am fortunate to be in the place I am.

“If I can help even just one person get through their problems with my experience then that is great. We are building up the information available all the time which can only help.” n To see Brooke's blog go to: www.brooketrotter.wordpress. com

A a total of £546.50 was raised from the event and this included £134.50 of sales of Martin House goods.

Respite breaks may be taken throughout the year for as long as families need them. Terminal and bereavement care is also offered.

“The Bowls club charity committee ran numerous events from Monday 5 to Sunday 11 October including a Quiz with a 'Child' theme, a raffle, a tombola, and a fun 'Cricket Bowls' event. Martin House Christmas cards were on sale at the weekend.

Pedal power for Tour de Yorkshire in Scarborough Picture by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

SCHOOL children from George Pindar School took to the beach in Scarborough to celebrate the town achieving host town status for next year’s Tour de Yorkshire and to encourage members of the public to start guessing whether Scarborough will host a start or a finish during the three day cycle race.

The students were joined by representatives from North Yorkshire County Council and Scarborough Borough Council who will work in partnership with race organisers Welcome to Yorkshire and Amaury Sport Organisation to deliver one of the key parts of the race on the Yorkshire coast during the weekend of 29 April to 1 May 2016.

Cllr Andrew Backhouse, Scarborough Borough Council Cabinet Member for Leisure, Tourism and Culture said: “The announcement about the host towns created a huge amount of excitement and we are delighted that Scarborough and the Yorkshire coast will get a second chance to showcase this spectacular sporting event.

We want to keep that enthusiasm well and truly alive in the weeks and months running up to the race . While it’s just a bit of fun, our aim is to get people talking about the race with their family and friends before the route is announced in December.”

Cllr Derek Bastiman, North Yorkshire County Council Member for Scalby and the Coast added: “With Scarborough joining Settle as two of next year’s host towns for Tour de Yorkshire, we are once again looking forward to playing a very important role in North Yorkshire in helping to deliver a world class race experience for all.”

As well as Scarborough and Settle, the other 2016 host towns are Beverley, Doncaster, Middlesbrough and Otley.

Anyone wanting to guess where the starts and finishes will be and the race route can tweet their ideas to @letouryorkshire #TdY or join in the conversation at facebook.com/ letouryorkshire One and a half million people lined the route of the first Tour de Yorkshire earlier this year. n More information about the race can be found at: letour.yorkshire.com

Mental Health Day an all-round success Standing from left, Carrie Martin, Jez Ech, Lewis Marrow and Mike Chorley, seated from left Simon Muir and Jim Muir of Echotwin

Words & pictures by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

SCARBOROUGH played a key role as part of World Mental Health Day. Through various fundraising activities over £500 was raised throughout the day.

Generous shoppers donated more than £200 to Scarborough Whitby and Ryedale Mind who held a street collection, while a concert at Scarborough Library raised

£300.

Onto the evening and a special concert took place at The Corporation Club, who hosted five performers to celebrate the day.

First up was Filey singer, song-writer, Mike Chorley who entertained with his original bouncy tunes. Scarborough songstress, Lottie Holmes then took to the stage with a heartfelt set of personal songs which captivated those who listened. Hull-based Folk singer, Carrie Martin, who has written songs with legendary folk artist, Gordon Giltrap, then offered some virtuoso finger picking and lyrical narratives.

There was little respite, as Jez Ech delivered a delightful set of melodies, with two songs sung entirely in Spanish.

An interval followed with the draw of a fund raising raffle for local charities, Mind and Scarborough Survivors.

Penultimately, Echotwin arrived with their emotional new wave influenced pop, featuring teenage guitarist, Jim Muir. Last, but no means least, saw Lewis Marrow (The Republic of Trees) play a spellbinding set of affective and contemplative pieces, to finish off a memorable evening.

Organiser Simon Muir said: “It was a great little gig which had some very personal performances and we managed to raise £70 on the raffle, which was great.”

Sporting gesture from Mel C Super supper raises money helps boost charity song’s figures for Scarborough RNLI

by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

A Liverpool singer who appeared on the Wembley Arena stage of The X Factor last year, and was told by Louis Walsh that she'd 'never sell records', has done just that, and helped raise more than £25,000 for Cancer Research UK by performing on a hit charity single called Apart written by Scarborough's Neil Fitzpatrick.

In an ironic twist of fate, Michelle Lawson, who sensationally stormed off stage after being told by the judges (including Scary Spice Mel B), that she 'wasn't what they were looking for', has received huge support and encouragement from another Spice Girl, Mel C. Michelle said: "My X Factor experience wasn't exactly the highlight of my career,

Mind over matter for charity walker David A SCARBOROUGH man who suffers from debilitating arthritis is walking from Filey to Robin Hood’s Bay to raise funds for a local mental health charity.

David Mackenzie from South Cliff has taken up the challenge after learning about the recent plight of Scarborough Whitby and Ryedale Mind (SWR Mind) which was saved from closure earlier this year and is still in great need of funds.

David was inspired to do the walk as one of his close friends has suffered from severe depression and was greatly helped by the charity who supported him during the crisis.

David has also suffered from anxiety in the past and as a keen walker, has decided to take up the challenge of walking the distance of 23 miles on November 2.

He said: “I’m delighted to be doing this challenging walk for Scarborough Whitby and Ryedale Mind.

“I was very upset to hear earlier this year that the charity almost closed due to lack of funds and remains in great need of donations to keep its projects helping people in the local community going.

“Without a charity like Mind, which provides a telephone helpline, support groups and one to one support for people, there would be nowhere else for people to turn.

Head of Services for SWR Mind, Sophie Hall added: “We’re really pleased that

A FISH Supper served up some tasty fundraising treats in Scarborough.

The event was hosted by Sue Durward at The Welcome Inne, Sandside, to raise money for the Scarborough RNLI. Sue's Mother-in-law, Brenda Durward, was the Chairman of The Scarborough Ladies Lifeboat Guild for four years.

Members of The Scarborough Ladies Lifeboat Guild attended and held a raffle.

The event was a great success and the fish and chips went down a treat, staff were run of their feet but never stopped smiling. The Mayor and Mayoress Cllr Tom Fox and wife Ros attended at 6pm and chatted to everyone, then enjoyed supper before leaving.

but let's be fair, there are far more important things in life, like raising money to fund research into this awful illness that destroys so many lives.”

Mel C, who has known Michelle for many years, has sent numerous supportive text messages and tweets, as well as signed items including CDs, photographs and a signed DVD. The song, Apart was composed by Scarborough songwriter Neil Fitzpatrick when he lost several loved ones, including his dad, to cancer. He approached Michelle after typing 'amazing female vocalist' into YouTube and stumbling upon her videos.

Neil said: "When I first heard Michelle sing I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

She was just phenomenal and exactly what I was looking for for the song.”

The song was released in April 2014 and had raised over £13,000 by September this year. On October 2, Michelle appeared at the first Apart Black Tie Ball, organised

by Neil and his pal Brett, which raised a further £12,800, bringing the overall total to a staggering £25,800.

The song is available to buy at www. apartsong.co.uk and on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and Google Play. ALL proceeds go to Cancer Research UK. You can also donate to the Apart Project by texting APAR50 £1 (or £2, £3, £4, £5, £10) to 70070.

Dolphin delight off Yorkshire Scarborough youngsters growing Words by Dave Barry, photos by Stuart Baines

White-beaked dolphins in the sea off Whitby

The Yorkshire coast gets dolphin visitors regularly during the summer and autumn when whitebeaked dolphins can be seen in our seas.

A Whitby Whale Watching voyage recently came upon a pod of 20 dolphins feeding and playing a mile off Whitby.

Dolphins are sociable and curious animals and approach boats both to investigate them and enjoy swimming or bow riding with the boat - a truly magical experience for those on board.

The white-beaked dolphin is an offshore species but will come close to land, looking for food, and is always great to see.

It has a sloping head with a short, thick, white beak. It is a large dolphin up to 2.7m, or 10ft, in length, with a large, sickle-shaped fin.

It is generally black on the back but with pale grey on its upper flanks, in front and behind the dorsel fin, over the back and tail base.

The Sea Watch Foundation relies on members of the public to provide details of cetacean sightings.

Sightings of porpoise, dolphin and whales can be reported to Stuart Baines, an assistant regional coordinator with the Sea Watch Foundation in Yorkshire, via the Scarborough Porpoise Facebook and Twitter pages or by email: stuart@ baines1994.fsnet.co.uk.

The Sea Watch Foundation can be emailed via: sightings@ seawatchfoundation.org.uk.

The SWF uses such information to protect and raise awareness of these animals and the threats they face.

Words and picture by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

THE We Shall Overcome charity weekend in Scarborough proved a resounding success.

The charity fundraiser started at the Corporation Club on Dean Road with a top music gig.

The likes of Ellis Jones, Joe Solo and Rebekah and Martha performed.

Those attending were asked to donate food gifts in return for watching the gig.

There was also another gig at it is it is the following night.

The event was organised by Dave Yates and Rob Cross of Revolutions Music.

WSO 2016 will run for a full week between Monday 3 to Sunday 9 October.

Dave said: “It was a great weekend and we were proud of how it went. Next year will be a full week and we are looking forward to it.

“A big thank you to everyone who took part and made it such a success.”

THE FRIENDS of Scarborough Art Gallery enjoyed talks from Louisa and Lewis Creed on the art of rag rug making at their last meeting.

As Louisa gave a short history of the craft of rag rug making, most members of the audience could recall the familiar rugs of their childhood, generally of speckled dark colour, made from strips of worn-out clothing.

The friends of Scarborough Art Gallery said: “Louisa has been making rugs for 40 years.

She has gathered rag of many colours and her rugs show great artistic talent. Lewis’ rugs show a more primitive artistic style, many of comical and colourful animals. Together they demonstrate a rich variety of creative talent.”

“The Creeds' engaging personalities made this meeting fun as well as instructive and were much appreciated.” They added.

The Friends' next meeting is on Monday 9th November at 2.30 in the Art Gallery when Jeannie Swales will give a talk about the Scarborough Museums collection; admission is £3, refreshment included.

Dear Editor

Dear Editor

SOCIAL care providers and people across York and North Yorkshire are being urged to join the fight to get the Government to put more money into the care of older and vulnerable adults in their own home.

The Independent Care Group (York and North Yorkshire) is urging all homecare providers and the public to sign an online petition lobbying the Government to act.

Social care has been hit hard during the economic downturn, with almost £5bn cut from local authority budgets since 2010-11 and more forecast.

A host of national bodies including the Association of Directors of Social Services (ADASS), the National Care Alliance and many more recently called on the Government to address all social care funding in the forthcoming spending review.

On top of the cutbacks, the sector is also concerned about the introduction of the National Living Wage in April next year.

Social care is at crisis point with providers and commissioners warning that there could be a major provider failure and a huge loss of care provision for people who need it.

The Government has to act on social care funding before the introduction of the National Living Wage or there will be a serious problem with care provision in this country.

In the meantime, I would urge as many people as possible to sign this petition and show the government the strength of concern about this issue and the way we care for our oldest and most vulnerable citizens.

People are urged to sign the online ‘Save Our Homecare’ petition run by the United Kingdom Homecare Association (UKHCA) by visiting http://bit.ly/1Lb9yTk Kind regards

Mike Padgham

Independent care Group (York & North Yorkshire) Chairman

I would like to thank everyone who took part in our Worlds Biggest Coffee Morning event at the Grand Hotel in Scarborough.

It was an outstanding success, raising £800 for the charity.

I am constantly surprised by, and grateful for the generosity of Scarborough people and visitors.

I must thank the staff at the Grand Hotel and all those who helped on the day.

Kind regards

Dear Editor

THE current musical director and accompanist of Ayton Ladies Choir, Tony and Liz Turner, have announced that, due to other commitments, they will leave the choir at the end of this year.

We are immensely grateful to both of them for all the work they have done and for stepping in, initially at very short notice, to allow the choir to complete concerts.

Subsequently, the Turners made a longer term commitment and injected new ideas and music, together with joint musical events with other groups. We have even recorded a CD of Christmas music.

Sadly, the choir will not be able to continue without them, unless we can find others with their skills and interest willing to take on the roles of musical director and accompanist.

If anyone is interested in helping us out please phone me on 01723 865197.

Thank you.

I WOULD like to share a picture I took of the Marine Drive and castle recently in Scarborough.

You can't beat a sight like that and there are not many places in the world that have such beautiful scenes.

Scarborough sometimes gets criticised but I can't think of a better place to live.

I moved here 23 years ago and have found both the people and the place to be very warm and welcoming.

Weeping elm update

by Dave Barry

The campaign which led to a treepreservation order (TPO) being placed on the weeping-wych elm in Dean Road was run by Ron Womack, Diana Brooksbank, Lucy Lambley and numerous supporters.

The TPO was granted by Scarborough Council after a protracted campaign.

The tree came under threat when Tesco obtained planning permission for a large supermarket. The retail giant later shelved its plan.

THROUGH your pages I would just to clarify our position with recent events surrounding the recent EDL march in Scarborough. We were contacted via telephone to enquire if a group of people could meet here off the train (as we are regularly due to our location), and unfortunately the member of staff who took the call was unaware of who the English Defence League actually were.

By the time the management were informed about this, unfortunately word had got around quickly as it does around the social media. The Police, who got in touch with us, had based their whole management plan around containing the EDL march starting from our premises, and to change it would have caused considerable confusion to them, and may have meant that many of the EDL protesters would have been loose unsupervised in the town. For this reason alone we reluctantly agreed to let them congregate here.

The Frack Free Scarborough protesters outside Barclays Bank

Dear Editor

MEMBERS of Frack Free Scarborough and supporters joined anti-fracking groups across Yorkshire when they protested outside Barclays Bank on Newborough.

Protesters shouted, ‘Barclays back the frackers,’ and gathered signatures for a petition, and educated the public about fracking and Barclays’ relationship with fracking companies.

They also called on Barclays Bank staff to petition senior management on the issue via their union or staff association.

This kind of demonstration further increases the pressure on the fracking company and its financial backers.

Kind regards

Dear Editor

I went to Scalby Mills recently and my wife Carol asked me why all the caravans were parked at the Sealife Cente car park.

I defended them and said it is free to park there over night and I think it is a good thing.

Whilst I was down on the shingle at Scalby Mills, I heard a right racket and looked up.

The Caravan owners were emptying their rubbish bins over the prom side onto the rocks.

The cheeky blighters! These are people who own expensive vehicles and caravans so we are not talking about poor travellers.

Now I am against them parking free when they are taking the mickey with their actions. Go and do it in your own town!

Regards

Cliff Miller

Scarborough resident

I do have to say that they did not actually cause us any problems on the day.

We would like to state very clearly, we are in no way affiliated with, or support the EDL, its aims, views and objectives.

Ordinarily anyone expressing these abhorrent views would not be welcome in our pub. This also goes for all of our staff who also wish not to be associated with them.

As an establishment, we regularly run charity gigs for good causes. To prove this point we would be happy to organise/host a fundraising event for any group diametrically opposed to what the EDL stand for, and contribute unwanted profits that we did not want to make from the EDL members directly to this cause. Thank you for understanding our difficult position in this.

Kind regards

Wake up with Radio Quakers mark 25 years at Scarborough’s new Friends Meeting House breakfast show

Steve Asker presenting his new breakfast show on Radio Scarborough

Words & picture by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

RADIO Scarborough has a brand new breakfast show and presenter.

This is a first for the community station based at The Street in Scarborough as they have launched their first ever live breakfast show with presenter Steve Asker.

Steve Asker's Sensible Breakfast Show airs Monday to Friday between 8-10am.

He said: “I am originally from Canvey Island in Essex and moved here temporarily in February 2012, but fell in love with the town and decided to stay.

“From a very young age I've always listened to and had a passion for great radio, and the radio industry itself.

I have spent years trying to get my foot in the door to this industry via pestering many radio stations across the country, but have never been given a chance, until now. “ I knew from the moment I stepped into the studio and met with Jerry Scott that Radio Scarborough was the people's station, the people's voice, and that the radio Scarborough team were very much like a family.”

And to be the first DJ to present a live breakfast show on Radio Scarborough is a big responsibility which Steve is relishing.

Steve, 24, added: “In my opinion, the breakfast slot has always been the most coveted slot in the radio industry and I am extremely humbled to have been offered the breakfast slot at Radio Scarborough, which I have gratefully accepted.

"The shows aim is to wake you up with my unique sense of humour, great conversation, great guests and of course great music to start your day! The show will include 'Joke of the Day' and also marks the radio return of the 'Half Past Forecast'.

“This show is a huge personal project for me and I assure you it will only get better with age. I'm just happy to be here and hope to look forward to a successful radio career and hope to keep you all entertained in the mornings. Enjoy the show.” go to: www.radioscarborough.co.uk for more.

Local lads shortlisted for Grand Central community awards

Ben Peckitt and Saul Bateman

By Krystal Starkey

TWO unsung heroes from Scarborough have been shortlisted for Grand Central Rail’s 2015 Heart of the Community Awards for their generous contribution to the community.

Ten-year-olds Ben Peckitt and Saul Bateman from Scarborough were nominated by Jodie Peckitt, Ben’s mum, for the boys’ fundraising activities for SASH, an organisation dedicated to preventing vulnerable young people from becoming homeless. During their summer holidays, Ben and Saul also raise money and gather food donations for the Rainbow Centre in Scarborough and Salvation Army in Malton. The judges were particularly impressed by the boys’ commitment to their community at such a young age.

Grand Central’s 2015 Heart of the Community Awards recognise those that have made a real difference through contributions to the communities along the rail provider’s routes.

To reward Ben and Saul for their contributions, Grand Central has invited the boys to an awards ceremony on October 28 in Wakefield alongside other shortlisted nominees. One winner along each route will be named at the ceremony, winning a family trip to London, including rail travel, hotel and visit to The London Bridge Experience and Tombs attraction, as well as a £500 donation from Grand Central to the charity of their choice.

Sean English, Chief Operating Officer at Grand Central, said: “I would like to congratulate Ben Peckitt and Saul Bateman for their commitment and passion for their local community and we look forward to celebrating with all the regional shortlists at our award ceremony in October.”

Scarborough Quakers have celebrated the 25th anniversary of the opening of their Friends Meeting House.

The Quakers were evicted from their previous home in York Place, which was demolished in the 1980s to make way for the ugly Brunswick Pavilion shopping centre.

It was an upsetting time for Quakers but eventually the land where the current building stands was purchased and a purpose-built Meeting House constructed.

Opened in April 1990, it is a modern and vibrant venue used not just by Quakers but by many other clubs and societies, which were invited to take part in the celebration.

The event was well patronised. Displays were mounted by members of Scalby WI, the Probus Club, the Forty Club, Amnesty International, the University of the Third Age, Scarborough Survivors, Scarborough Ramblers, Scarborough Stitchers and Scarborough Lace Makers.

The latter had “an attractive display of stunning artistic work created by

members”, says Quaker librarian Angela Nellis. “The level of detail and the beauty of the pieces on display was breathtaking.”

Angela organised the event with Meeting House warden Anne Turner, who runs the building and whose warm smile and cheery personality welcomes everyone who uses it.

The displays included one about the history of Quaker friends in Scarborough, which can be seen until the end of the month.

Books and produce were sold to raise funds for Ravensworth Lodge, the Quaker residential home.

A cake was cut by founding member Hester Miller.

The venue, in Quaker Close near the hospital, provides modern and spacious accommodation, with good public address facilities. It is well served by local buses, has a large car park and is easily accessible by anyone with mobility problems. It is available for hire to clubs.

A worship meeting is held on Sundays at 10.30am and Thursdays at 10am; all are welcome.

Stray Scene making a big noise in the music industry

Words by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

THIS year has been a crazy year for Scarborough band Stray Scene doing lots of festivals and gigs around the country.

Their next gig is supporting Cast, one of the biggest bands ever to come out of the UK at York Duchess, November

8, then heading to Leeds to play the massive Leeds Metropolitan University November 27.

Stray Scene are the first Scarborough band ever to get on on at this prestigious venue which has seen the likes of Foo Fighters, Ed Sheeran, Bur and Coldplay take to the stage.

Stray Scene will be also releasing their brand new song/video, Dirty Brothel at the end of November which they are hoping will be played on BBC introducing stations.

2016 is looking like a big year for these boys with some more big gigs been lined up and their debut album Vive Somnium set to be released early Spring.

For more look for Stray Scene on Facebook.

Words & pictures by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

IT IS all about keeping it in the family when it comes to Thorpe's store on Wreyfield Drive, Barrowcliff, Scarborough.

Sisters Naomi and Ruth Thorpe are the third generation of the family to run the business after both their grandad and dad also ran the popular local convenience store.

Ruth said: “We are really proud to have the family name above the shop now and for it to have been re-opened.

“It is nice to know that we have been able to carry on the tradition of this shop being in the family and to make sure all the hard work previously done can continue.

“It has taken my sister and myself some four years since dad passed away to be in this position. Now all the hard work is paying off and we are able to welcome customers back. It is an exciting time for us and we look forward to seeing both old and new faces coming to the store.”

The shop sells everything from groceries, wines and beers, National Lottery, newspapers and magazines to kitchen and bathroom items and also has a free ATM inside.

Thorpe's is open from 7.30am-7.30pm Monday to Saturday and 8am-7.30pm on Sundays.

Ruth added: “On out first day back open we were really busy and we are both confident that will continue. Our aim is to offer a great service to our customers and make sure they can get what they need at good prices.”

Council seeks new volunteers for residents and business panels

By Krystal Starkey

Scarborough Borough Council is on the lookout for new panel members to provide feedback on council services and projects.

In the past, local residents and organisations have given the council valuable feedback on the quality of its services, which has enabled it to make improvements and benefit customers.

Panel members are invited to take part in a number of questionnaires each year either online or in an alternative format if required. On occasions, panel members

may be asked if they would like to participate in focus group meetings at the Town Hall in Scarborough to discuss issues in more detail.

Anyone interested in joining either panel should visit scarborough.gov. uk/residentspanel or scarborough. gov.uk/businesspanel as appropriate.

Alternatively they can email consultation@ scarborough.gov.uk or call into one of the Customer First centres and complete a form. n Further information is available from the Performance and Governance team on 01723 232319.

The Samaritans shop in Hanover Road, Scarborough, is on the look-out for new volunteers.

The shop, opened six years ago, raises most of the money needed to fund the Samaritans branch, in Trafalgar Street West.

The centre, which provides an invaluable listening service to people in crisis, costs about £30,000 a year to run.

About two thirds of this is raised by selling donated clothes, crockery, DVDs, etc, at the shop.

The rest comes from various fundraising activities undertaken by volunteers.

“All the money raised at the shop comes directly to us,” explains branch director Karen Edmond. “It all stays in Scarborough.”

The plan is to extend the shop’s opening hours, currently 10am-2pm MondayFriday, by recruiting new volunteers.

They will undertake various roles. Some will work on the shop floor, serving customers and accepting donations, while others will operate behind the scenes, preparing donations for sale.

“We are looking for people who could give the same hours regularly on a weekly or monthly basis,” says Karen.

Michael, who has volunteered with the Samaritans for eight years, says: “I get a lot out of it. It keeps me in touch with people, it gives me new challenges and it keeps my brain active. It’s good to be needed.”

If you would like to join the happy team at the Samaritans shop, call in and say hello. You are guaranteed a friendly welcome.

Donations of unwanted items such as clothing, shoes, toys, bedding,, jewellery, bric-a-brac and household goods are always welcome too.

FESTIVE families will be running and walking to raise funds for Saint Catherine’s in the annual Santa Dash and Reindeer Run. The event covers a 1.5-mile route from Filey Country Park to Royal Parade on Sunday 13 December.

grandparents, coming together to support our vital work.”

The hospice are welcoming all who wish to take part.

Adults can choose to wear Santa suits or, like the younger children, dash along wearing reindeer antlers.

Crime writer to publish second novel Words and photo

by Dave Barry

A Scarborough author is about to publish her second novel, as her recognition as a crime writer grows.

Kate Evans The Art of Survival follows the success of Kate Evans’ first novel, The Art of the Imperfect, which was long-listed for the 2015 Crime Writers Association Debut Dagger award.

Since then, Kate has had a busy year.

Besides completing her second novel, she has toured with an illustrated talk on crime writing, where her writing has been well received.

“With the popularity of Scandinavian crime writing, the use of setting in novels has come to the fore,” Kate commented.

“Using the backdrop of a small seaside town with its sea-scapes and crumbling cliffs has proved a hit.”

Val McDermid has said the crime novel gives voice to characters who are not comfortably established in the world; and in Kate's writing characters are complex and move in unpredictable ways through their tangled lives.

The Art of... crime series by Kate tackles issues of mental health and marginalisation.

It isn’t gritty crime, it isn’t cosy crime, it isn’t police procedural. It is poetic storytelling which peels back the psychological layers to reveal the raw centre.

Kate will launch The Art of Survival at a signing at WH Smith, Scarborough, on 21 November and a talk at Filey library on 1 December.

Yorkshire Coast Homes wins top green award

Words & picture by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

ALL ABOUT The Day Wedding & Gift Boutique is setting the bar high after moving to new premises.

Lee Gough's business has moved from Valley Bridge to a new home on Bar Street in Scarborough's town centre and Lee is positive about the future.

He said: “It has been a whirlwind few years for me both personally and professionally. I left my old job in Norfolk to move here to get married to my wife Leah.

“As we began searching for our wedding I was amazed at how expensive everything was when you added the word wedding to it.

“This is where the idea for All About The Day was born, as I believed we could supply so much more at a better price. With little capital and a lot of determination within a year we grew from an idea to a business trading from shop premises with a strong social media presence and which works alongside countless other local independents to provide the best service possible.”

As well as doing gifts for both him and her for all different occasions including weddings, christenings, mother's and

All About The Day owner Lee Gough outside his new premises on Bar Street father's day, retirements and anything else you can name, the business also does hire equipment such as candle lanterns, top table bunting, cake stands, LED lighting and much much more.

Lee added: “It is about being as versatile as possible and giving people lots of choice. I decided to move to a more central location with the shop and Bar Street is ideal. It gives customers the chance to come in and have a long what we have to offer and get a feel for the products.”

SOCIAL landlord, Yorkshire Coast Homes, has been awarded the Investors in the Environment Green Award.

The scheme allows a business to

prove that it has implemented an environmental management plan to reduce its environmental impact.

To achieve this standard YCH has monitored gas, electricity, water and fleet fuel consumption along with staff mileage and even printer usage over the course of two comparable years. This scrutiny has identified considerable savings in both cost and energy, while also underlining the company’s commitment to reducing its impact on the environment.

Steve Ellard, Yorkshire Coast Homes Asset Manager, said, “This is great news for Yorkshire Coast Homes and helps to emphasise how focused we are on increasing our energy efficiency.

We are committed to maintaining or even increasing our high level of environmental monitoring to ensure that we retain this accreditation next year”. n For further information please contact Kevin Allen, Yorkshire Coast Homes Media & Community Liaison Officer, 01723 343211

Hospice bids farewell to Hazel after 29 years

More homes to be built in North Yorkshire

Hazel is pictured centre with colleagues, left to right, Suzie Berry, Kate Warburton, Kay Dunderdale and Cheridan Ingle.

A master bedroom at Cornelian Fields A LUXURY house builder is cracking on after its development of new homes in Middle Deepdale proved a big hit with North Yorkshire’s house buyers.

Kebbel Homes have decided to bring forward the second phase of housing following the huge success of Cornelian fields.

There are 28 stylish family homes in the first phase, which have all been finished to a high specification. The second phase will see 34 new homes come to the development.

Linda Tillisch, Northern Sales Manager

for Kebbell Homes, said: “We’re thrilled that so much interest has been shown at Cornelian Fields in such a short period of time.

“The development has a lot to offer buyers and the fact that homes are being snapped up so quickly, shows that people don’t want to miss out on living in our beautiful, high specification homes.

The sales office and show homes are open Friday to Monday from 10am to 5pm. n For more details visit www.kebbell. co.uk, or call 01723 586 858.

SAINT Catherine’s longest-serving nurse has retired after 29 years of helping patients and their families.

Staff nurse Hazel Edeson has spent almost three decades on the night shift because that was where she felt she could give the most to the families in her care.

“On nights, you get a little bit more time to spend with patients and that’s when they open up and talk to you more,” she said.

“When I was doing my training all those years ago you were told never to get involved with patients but here it’s inevitable. I’ve met some wonderful families and of course you get close to people. You can’t help it.”

Saint Catherine’s had only just opened at its first home on Scalby Road when Hazel joined the staff.

“It was lovely from day one,” she said.

“It had such a nice atmosphere.”

Hazel has seen many changes since the early days when almost all hospice patients were elderly and had cancer.

Now the hospice on Throxenby Lane helps a wide age group of patients with a whole range of illnesses.

“The only thing that saddens me is that we’ve been open 30 years and still people wrongly say, ‘How can you work there, it must be a horrible place to work’. It’s not, it’s wonderful,” Hazel said.

“Working at the hospice has been a privilege. As nurses, we look after the patients but we also look after each other and I’ve made some great friends.

“Looking back to where the hospice started, I feel so proud of everything we’ve achieved.”

Operation clamps down on private hire vehicles in Scarborough

A JOINT agency operation to inspect taxi and private hire vehicles to ensure the safety of the travelling public took place in Scarborough in October. The operation

by North Yorkshire Police also involved North Yorkshire County Council’s School Transport team, Customs & Excise officers and Scarborough Borough Council's Licensing department. Information was also shared with the council’s Benefit Fraud team.

The vehicle inspectors primarily looked for defects such as steering systems, brakes, faulty headlights, problems with indicators, illegal tyres and worn handbrakes. Licensing officers also checked vehicles for cleanliness and presentation and that licensed drivers were fully compliant with the council’s Taxi and Private Hire Policy and Government law.

25 taxi and private hire vehicles were inspected during the exercise, of which 9 were found to be completely satisfactory and of a high standard. 13 received

advisory notices to address defects (some being more serious than others, MOT failings, vehicles with multiple defects etc) which are important issues.

A further three vehicles received warnings for more serious issues and had to be taken off the road. Although several of the warnings related to vehicle lights, three related to legal but worn tyres. Advice regarding stopping distances was given to drivers.

A couple of drivers received warnings for speeding, smoking in the vehicle and failure to display their photographic ID and badges prominently. Badges must be worn and on display so that they are clearly visible to anyone wishing to see them otherwise an offence may be committed.

The fact that some vehicles were deficient remains a concern and the council is likely to consider legal action in some cases.

Cllr Martin Smith, Scarborough Borough Council Licensing Committee Chairman said: “I am pleased with the way the operation has been conducted. We take the safety of the travelling public very seriously and it is important that licensed drivers adhere to the law with regard to vehicle maintenance, tax and insurance to ensure the safety of all road users.”

Sgt Peter Wood of North Yorkshire Police Roads Policing Group added: “This event showed multi agency collaboration at its best with the overall emphasis on road safety. It aimed to ensure that taxis and private hire vehicles in the Scarborough district are safe and law compliant for all customers.”

The Spa set for top entertainment with Jools Holland

PIANO master Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra are set to perform live at Scarborough Spa next year.

Words and photos by Dave Barry “We will not rest until people who are blind or partially sighted can enjoy the same freedom of movement as everyone else.” That’s the solemn pledge of the Guide Dogs for the Blind Association, which provides guidedogs for 4,800 people around the country.

Many of those blind and partially sighted people are in the Scarborough and Filey district, which has a hardworking fundraising group.

Led by branch organiser Ann Nowacki, it is made up of guide-dog owners and sighted volunteers who organise or take part in about 80 events a year.

They have collections in various locations, make presentations about their work to organisations and schools, organise and attend events such as summer fairs and stage an annual concert.

The branch has been charity of the year at Sainsbury’s in Ramshill and the Filey lodge of the Lady Masons, and has been a beneficiary of the annual Festive Spectacular at the Spa. Last year, the branch raised £24,000 – the most ever; Ann’s target is £50,000 a year, which is how much it costs to train a dog.

Talks given by volunteers at schools have led to sponsorship of 15 guide-dog puppies under a fundraising scheme designed for schoolchildren.

“We receive a wonderful response from the public who are very generous in helping us achieve our goals,” says Ann. “We have tremendous support from staff at the Brunswick Centre, Morrisons and the Grand Hotel, among others, who are always ready to assist us in our fundraising efforts.”

Organisations and schools which would like a presentation, with working guide dogs, should ring Ann on 353933.

WORK is progressing after the first sod in a 'new educational future for Scarborough' was turned on Coventry University’s £14 million campus.

Coventry University Scarborough Campus opened just last month welcoming its first students in a range of courses at Scarborough Spa – but from next year they will move to the new state-of-the-art complex at the Weaponness site.

Chananya Kleaklom, from Scarborough, who is studying on the Early Childhood Development and Learning programme, was chosen to start the construction work which is being undertaken by Willmott Dixon.

She was joined by Mayor of the Borough of Scarborough Cllr Tom Fox, Vice-chancellor of Coventry University Professor John Latham, Provost of Coventry University Scarborough Campus Professor Craig Gaskell, and Anthony Dillon, Managing Director for Willmott Dixon in Yorkshire.

Coventry University Scarborough Campus is bringing a new era in higher education to the region.

Prof Latham said: “This is a massively important project for Coventry University, Scarborough and the regional economy.

Two top charity events in November

Musical mix for John Peel Tribute Gig

THERE are two events coming up in aid of the Mayoress's Community Fund.

On Wednesday November 4 there is a fashion show at the Stephen Joseph Theatre between 2-4pm which costs £5, including refreshments.

Tickets for this are available now from Bonmarche in the town centre.

On Friday November 27 a race night is being held at the Commercial pub on Falsgrave from 7pm.

All are welcome to attend both events.

This may be the start of work on a physical building but the establishment of the new campus is the beginning of a huge opportunity.

“We have had great support from Scarborough Borough Council, the local business community and other stakeholders who see long-term value in the project and are equally excited about the positive impact it will have.

Coventry University Scarborough Campus will be part of the £45 million sports and education facility on the town’s old Weaponness Park and Ride site.

Cllr Fox said: “I am delighted to be able to mark the official start of the construction of the new campus for Coventry University Scarborough Campus.

“Students are already benefiting from the university’s high quality and specialist education in existing town centre venues and they can look forward with pride to moving into state of the art learning and living accommodation in autumn 2016.

Further information regarding Coventry University Scarborough Campus is available at www.coventry.ac.uk/cusc

THE John Peel Tribute Gig takes place on 14 November at The Imperial in Filey.

A hugely eclectic day of music from 3pm to celebrate the life and influence of the late, great DJ. Bands and performers who are set to play include, Horizon, Carrie Martin, Active Minds, Stray Scene, Echotwin, Roxy, Thee Strawberry Mynde, The Tall Boy, The Republic of Trees, Lottie Holmes, Echotwin and Dogfinger Steve. Entry is free.

The country's biggest chess congress of the year was staged in Scarborough at the weekend.

With 340 competitors, the event filled the Spa Ocean Room with men – and a few women – from all over the country.

They included top seed David Walker, a World Chess Federation master from Newcastle, who advised mayor Tom Fox when he called in to formally welcome the gathering.

Cllr Fox said he had enjoyed chess as a boy, learning to play at school, but had stopped playing. So when he sat down opposite John Garnett, Mr Walker’s help was invaluable.

The annual congress, the 39th in Scarborough, had five sections for all

The mayor, Cllr Tom Fox, is helped by top seed David Walker abilities, including a British championship qualifying event. The prize money exceeded £5,500.

Four of the 340 were from the host town: John Jarmany, Neil Pennock, Gary Morris and Simon Dixon.

Budding chefs set to turn up the heat in cooking competition

LOCAL Rotarians are asking budding young chefs to get in touch.

Last year both the town`s Rotary clubs organised a hugely successful young chef competition at the Yorkshire Coast College and they are planning to do the same again this year but they need more local youngsters to apply.

Roger Kaye, the Rotary Club of Scarborough`s Youth Services Committee Chair' said: “We have contacted all secondary schools and colleges in the locality telling them about the competition and we are hopeful for a good response.

“But we need to spread the word wider afield; so any young person wishing to take part in the competition should contact me on 07961 546462 or email rogerkaye8@outlook.com and I will send them an entry form.

“Or alternatively contact Jonathan Knight on 07753 574526 or email jonathank2000@hotmail.com.”

The competition is open to all youngsters aged 11-17 years old in full-time education on 31 August, 2015.

They will be expected to prepare a healthy 3-course meal for two people,

Top chef James MacKenzie presents the winners award to Rebecca Palmer with last year’s contestants looking on with their certificates costing less than £15.

The heats will take place on Monday, November 23 at the Yorkshire Coast College.

James MacKenzie, the Michelin-star chef from the Pipe and Glass Inn in South Dalton, will again be heading up the judging panel, as well as mentoring the local winner.

Last year`s winner Rebecca Palmer, a student at the Yorkshire Coast College, went onto win the district final in York and has since been sponsored on Rotary`s Youth Leadership Award course by the Scarborough Rotary Club.

Tales from the Cooler Water

by Steve Crawford

OCTOBER is often a month of surf, storms and dropping leaves, so I guess this one surprised us all by being warm, with little surf and allowing the trees to keep their leaves for a little while longer. As the month comes to a close it looks as if the waves and storms are returning.

On the 4 and 5 we saw, once again, the British pro tour surf competition come to Scarborough. North bay hosted the annual arrival of some of the best surfers in the UK. Any of you who have been to the competition in the past might remember that the one thing we almost always lack is waves to surf on. Fate has decreed that this weekend will be wave free in perpetua. We have had some small waves, but nothing like this coast can produce.

This year we at least had lovely weather and waves big enough for the junior surfers to catch a few ridable waves. Once again I ran a Surfers Against Sewage stall for the event. Thanks to everyone who helped out, chatted and bought raffle tickets. Let's hope for good waves and weather for next year.

I also have an update on the problems with the McCain outfall pipe that has been

Scarborough’s South Bay in all its glory! leaking into Cornelian bay: there will be a new pipe installed by the end of next August. The problem is that any leaks from the original pipe will continue to discharge into the near shore waters until then, with no further repairs being carried out until it's decommissioned once the new pipe is complete.

On a brighter note, there is an SAS beach

Some washed up waste at Jackson’s Bay clean coming up on Saturday 7 November.

It's taking place between 3pm - 5pm on South bay; meet on the beach at the Spa bridge slipway. Everyone is welcome, but under-16s must be accompanied by an adult. Please remember to dress appropriately for an East coast autumn day.

An SAS film night is planned for

Remember November is the time for tulips THE Muck and Magic garden has been looking fantastic through October this year. it's been a lovely month of mild, sunny days -great for getting out and sorting some late autumn jobs. The tree colour has been superb and long lasting. A real treat! However, there are still plenty of things to be getting on with in November. All gardeners work six months in advance of everyone else so if you are looking for great spring colour now is the time to get busy.

There is still plenty of time to plant daffodils and November is perfect for setting out tulip bulbs. In the Muck and Magic garden we are using two varieties this year, a miniature red called Praestans Fusilier which we trialled last year and which gave a fabulous long lasting display. The other is a miniature yellow called Monte Carlo which is good for planting in pots and won't grow too high or get knocked over by the wind. Sweet smelling hyacinths can also be potted up now for knock out colour and scent in March and April.

We are heading into rose planting season and if you are planning on replacing old bushes or planting new ones this is the time to get the soil prepared and well dug over. If you can, it's a good opportunity to get some well rotted manure or garden compost down into the soil to give your new plants a really good start.

Talking of compost, remember to clear up fallen leaves off the lawn and paths. Why not try finding a corner in the garden somewhere to stack them and let them rot down ready for next year? Perennial plants can be cut back now by snipping off dead heads but don't be too tidy. Leave some seed heads for the wild life to enjoy through the cold winter months.

As always, at this time of the year, our feathered friends need a bit of help so some tasty treats on the bird table, and access to water, wouldn't go amiss. Finally, don't forget that the new Muck and Magic Garden Club will hold its first meeting on November 9 at St Columbas Church Hall beginning at 7pm. Everyone is welcome to attend in what we hope will be the first of many occasions when the good gardening folk of the area can get together to swap notes and exchange a bit of gardening gossip.

Wednesday 25 November in Blue Crush at the Sands complex. We'll have some cool surf films to watch and a chance to chat about what SAS do nationally and locally.

Entry will be £2 with all proceeds will going to SAS. n All information about both events is available on Fluid Concept surf school Facebook page, or call me on 07891094976.

Scarborough Strata

A middle-Jurassic dinosaur footprint

BUT how do you know that? This is one of the commonest questions I get asked about fossils, espeically the world famous dinosaur footprints that we find on the Yorkshire Coast.

Recently this question came up again, but this time when I was reading a new scientific paper about dinosaur footprints that show various features that the authors claim were caused by injuries, deformations or illness in the dinosaur making the footprint. A healthy dose of scepticism is useful in the scientific world so this time I was the one asking, how do you know that?

Any footprint formed by any animal is a very dynamic process, if you add into the equation the consistency of the ground the animal is walking on it can lead to a very wide variation in footprint shapes left by one animal. Many of the Yorkshire Coast dinosaur footprints are difficult to see, and show very strange features such as toes not preserved and bent toes, all of these can be explained both by a normal healthy dinosaur moving across wet sand and mud, or could be explained by a dinosaur with deformed feet.

Currently I am still to be convinced that I have seen an injured dinosaurs footprint on our coastline, but I will certainly be looking even more carefully in the future! If you would like to join us to see the dinosaur footprints then why not book us for a private walk, or join one of the public walks starting again early in the new year.

SCARBOROUGH Engineering Week 2015 at the Spa Complex was a resounding success.

Students from local schools and colleges got to sample first hand some of the career opportunities available to them in the world of engineering.

The annual event is organised by The Scarborough Business Ambassadors and their Chairman Peter Wilkinson said: “So six years ago our key objectives were to stimulate fresh young young minds to consider 21st century engineering and to ensure Scarborough has a sustainable economic future.

“The first year we hosted the event at Plaxton with 420 students, six exhibitors and Mantra from the AMRC Sheffield.

Scalby School boys with the Unison team “Now to look at this year and how the event has grown. Over 3000 students attended this year with over 40 exhibitors. It all fits in perfectly with the developments of Scarborough UTC and Coventry University Scarborough Campus.”

Tim Englefield, Principal of Scarborough UTC said: “This was the first time I’ve had the pleasure of attending Scarborough Engineering week. It was a fantastic event which showed the real support from local companies to promote engineering as a subject and future career.

“From Scarborough UTC's perspective it was great to be able to talk to so many learners and explain what the UTC is about. Since the event we have received loads of positive comments

Looking into future careers with The Army and also a considerable number of learner applications for when we open in September 2016.”

Julie Heslington from Castle Employment's Engineering Division added: “We were delighted to be involved with Scarborough Engineering Week again this year. It was great to see it so well supported by local schools and colleges.

“We hope that the event has inspired both students who are interested in Engineering as well as those who’ve not previously considered this route. There were so many amazing interactive stands from all those who attended, who could fail to be inspired? We look forward to supporting some of those students in their engineering careers in years to come.”

The University Campus Scarborough Conference Centre

Conference Centre scores hat-trick

By Krystal Starkey

THE UNIVERSITY Campus Scarborough Conference Centre has announced a third business win bringing a major, year-round boost to the local economy.

Management at the Filey road site are seeing a greater return on investment year-on-year, with organisations from across the North of England enjoying its unique seaside facilities.

The latest business wins will see the centre providing conference facilities for the University of Leeds, Yorkshire Water and Flying Futures – a Community Interest Company delivering the National Citizen Service programme.

The centre offers a competitive price package, accessible spaces, accommodation on campus, sports and recreation facilities, as well as the latest technology and multi-media conferencing equipment.

Tina Steele, Finance & Business

Manager at the campus, says the future is looking bright: “We’re certainly seeing a growth in bookings and our revenue streams are up once again year-on-year.

“I think that’s because we offer flexibility and an intimate setting for gatherings and conferences.

“We’re compact and our academic facilities make us much more than a just a conference centre.

“So, for example, we’re seeing organisations book meetings with us that include the use of our laboratories, so they can give delegates hands-on experience.” She added.

As part of this, the Scarborough Campus Conference Centre is also playing a growing role in the Hull College Group’s vision for higher education in the town.

It is the latest chapter in the history of the Scarborough campus site, which has been used for educational purposes since 1909 and remains an important part of the town’s economy, culture and heritage.

Horoscopes NOV 2015 SCORPIO 23RD OCTOBER - 22nd NOVEMBER

Here are a few famous faces you share your sign with...

L to R: Bill Gates, Bjork, Bram Stoker, Grace Kelly

A frustrating month caused by the inconsistency of other peoples’ words and actions. When someone says one thing, then does another, this will tend to rock your boat rather than float it. I guess you’ve got two choices here – you can either lay down the law and demand that other people do as they have pledged and promised, or you could say “sod off” and do what needs to be done yourself without worrying too much about what other people might think or say. Either of these options will shake things up a bit, and neither of these options is detrimental to

you in any way.

New friends and worthwhile contacts will be made between the 13th and the 21st – and this is particularly true for independent ladies with minds of their own. Travel aspects look okay for some time during the last week (although I wouldn’t think that most of you will be travelling very far afield) and some of you will be giving some thought to possible changes of address. Overseas property m ay have role to play in the lives of the lucky few.

SAGITTARIUS

by an older relative, who may mean well, but who will become a major pain in the backside if they are not held in check. One gets the impression here of mothers or mothers-in-law. Good luck with this one!

Nov 23 - Dec 22

A strong feeling of satisfaction as a long term project comes to a successful completion. Social outlook very bright throughout the whole of the month, perhaps with the accent on entertaining at home. A strong feeling of bonding and unity with a lover or partner, but perhaps a minor problem to be dealt with concerning a teen or younger family member.

There’s nothing too serious going on here but some Sagittarian mothers are prone to over-react.

While there is no specific financial threat, you’ll feel the need to tighten the belt to compensate for some of the expenditure from earlier in the year. No need for bread and water but you’ll want to put the brakes on luxury spending. This might not go down too well with a lover or partner who does not see this situation in the same light.

Some annoyance when other members of the family do not seem to want to pull their weight in looking out for the welfare of older people, and health care for the elderly may be discussed at some length.

CAPRICORN

Dec 23 - Jan 20

A couple of tricky decisions along the lines of “do I say what I think or do I keep my mouth shut?” In connection with jobs and careers, staying silent is the best option, but if we’re talking about something domestic, better bring your thoughts and feelings to the surface… On condition that you do it gently and tactfully, avoiding being over critical.

Capricorns can be very single minded and tightly focused people – and thus, they are not always able to see things from any point of view other than their own. There could be a few problems brewing if you are unable to recognise this tendency within yourself.

Also, watch out for the period between the 15th and the 22nd which is a dangerous time for misreading situations, getting them completely wrong, and jumping to some conclusions that are way off base.

Christmas plans under discussion, and for once there is some harmony on this subject.

AQUARIUS

Jan 21 - Feb 18

A good month for buying and selling, but remember it’s usually a good idea to sell before you buy!

Compromises on the work scene with a colleague will work to your long term advantage, but be sure not to let anyone take you too much for granted.

Strong domestic situations provide you with an unusual degree of security and satisfaction, but you may have to be just a little bit firm with a lover or partner who try as they might, cannot see the woods for the trees.

Some new work routines may take some getting used to, but you’re not alone in your suffering, and actually, it is someone close to you, rather than you yourself, that confronts the emperor to tell him about his stupid new suit. Nevertheless, you will benefit from a work mate’s bravery.

Hope I’m wrong, but watch out for problems and extra expense in connection with a car. Any time is a bad time for this, so be prepared.

PISCES

Feb 19 - March19

Moving on from the month of October, November brings new challenges both on the work scene and at home. You will rise to these challenges, surprising not only some key players around you, but also surprising yourself! There is a strong romantic and sexual energy with you that could bring about some radical change and improvement in your love life.

If you are single and unattached, (especially a single and unattached male) there is someone very interested in getting closer to you, but I suspect they may be a bit on the shy side, and might need just an ounce of encouragement. (Guys, I might be going out on a limb here, but look for a lady with freckles and who wears glasses!)

Female members of the sign enjoy some small but important breakthrough in business and career aspects: I would have thought that there might be new jobs in the wind for some, promotions on offer for others, and a little bit of extra cash trickling in to indicate that you’re on the right pathway to somewhere.

ARIES

March 20 - April 19

Rather than waiting for any kind of invitation, be it to a party or to a romantic tryst, why not make a few invitations of your own? This will speed things along, and there are some sexy social vibes peaking on the 8th/9th and 20th/21st. Finances seem okay, but not much room for splashing out on luxuries… Of course, some Arians always have a bit of a problem in deciding what is a luxury and what is a necessity!

A little bit of tension in the wind when Christmas comes under discussion. Do you stick with tradition, please everyone else and avoid feeling guilty – or do you say “sod it” and do what you really want to do for a change? For some people that might mean living it up in a 4 star hotel, while others might be happy living in their pyjamas for a few days and binging out on bacon butties. The Queen’s speech and the turkey dinner (and those awful paper hats) will not be you preferred choice.

TAURUS

April 20 - May 21

Well, it’s November, and with the onset of winter you may find your spirits are rather low. You need to combat this by being active, both physically and mentally. It doesn’t really matter what you do as long as you do something! Artistic Taureans find new inspiration around the 17th… None artistic Taureans may have to wait until the 28th. All Taureans, male and female and the young and the old will have to deal with their fair share of SAD – unless they’ve got enough cash in the kitty to bugger off to Florida or Tenerife for a couple of months – and very few have this degree of financial flexibility.

Strangely enough, Christmas might be rather a bright beacon of sweetness and light this year… which is unusual insofar as many Taureans really don’t like Christmas very much at all… so, if only as a focus of positive energy, look forward to the festive season, get into the spirit of it all, and do something wild and different. If you can. If you dare.

GEMINI

MAY 22 - JUNE 21

A much calmer month emotionally as someone of the opposite sex makes great efforts to meet you more than half way. However, there’s nothing to be gained here if you yourself cannot make a few small compromises in affairs of the heart. Some measurable improvement to finances on or around the 20th, but don’t let this small success go to your head. Definitelynot the time to be buying fur coats or fast cars.

Some of you will be looking into the new year, contemplating changes or career direction or changes on the job scene. Some good energy here, and careful planning brings its own rewards.

Watch out for some interference in your personal life

CANCER

June 22 - July 23

A very important month for learning that there are certain things from your past that you cannot take with you into your future. For once, you’ll be willing to get rid of a lot of dead wood to make way for new growth. This underpins a quiet mood of optimism and determination, helped no end by a partner working hard to prove they’re worthy of your love.

Potentially, then, November could be a lovely month for romance and affairs of the heart, but for this to happen you must be prepared to play your part.

I suspect that November will be a busy and productive month where jobs and businesses are concerned, and you seem to be on a bit of a financial role until the 21st or 22ndwhen things slow down a little bit. Go with the flow of natural energy and don’t force issues that are not yet ready to be forced.

LEO

JULY 24 - AUGUST 23

Despite the cold outside, you’ll be feeling very warm on the inside as a number of critical situations start falling into place – not least of which concerns the long term future of a key relationship. A romantic month? Yes by all means! More importantly it is a period for laying the foundation stones of your long term emotional welfare. While there are some very bright an active moments of sexual intensity, there are also quiet times when you will be discussing and planning the long term pathways of your emotional life. I suspect that you are going to be feeling rather pleased and happy with the progress you’ll be making.

Perhaps as part of this process, travel plans will be made, possibly for Christmas or the period immediately afterwards… Providing you’re travelling with the right person, it doesn’t much matter where you go or how you get there!

VIRGO

August 24 - Sept 23

An encouraging month financially, with specific gains made between the 5th and the 7th and then again on or around the 25th. There could be an important reunion in the second week, and if nothing else, a member of the opposite sex will be working hard to get “close” to you! Jobs and careers dominate your thinking during the latter days of the month.

Independent business people should have a very busy month, with hardly any let up. This creates a sound fiscal platform, but you must avoid becoming stressed or over-tired. Easy to say, not so easy to do – but give it your best shot. Talking of shots, some of you may be needing a shot in the arm in preparation for long distance overseas journeys, and some of you might need to moderate your drinking habits… In fact, diets and a variety of different health routines may be relevant, especially if you’re having any problems with sleep patterns.

LIBRA:

Sept 24 - October 22

A lot of restrictions which have held you back and have hindered your progress, now seem to be slackening off, giving you both the confidence and the opportunity to act a little more spontaneously in pursuit of your goals. A lot of encouragement from a lover or partner, but not everyone will be pleased with some of your decisions. This should not be allowed to happen and you should ignore petulant or bitchy criticism. Anything and everything which lifts and enhances the strength of a key romantic relationship should be given absolute precedence over everything – and everyone – else!

Those of you who have been struggling a bit financially will now experience a lightening of your burden and some fresh hope for the future, when an offer or opportunity knocks on your door, sometime towards the end of the month around the 24th to the 29th … Being cruel, I’d say that beggars can’t be choosers, so grab what’s on offer with both hands… not as a be all and end all, but as a springboard and a stepping stone to something better.

Join us as we journey back in time. No pushing.

Trams were a big hit in town The people of Scarborough loved the town’s trams from the word go.

The new form of transport was an instant hit when introduced in May 1904.

In the first few days, 22,000 people paid one or two pennies to travel on the electric, open-top vehicles.

A sixpenny tour of all six routes, including a walk in Alexandra gardens conducted by a driver, was added later.

Trams were a simple, inexpensive and enjoyable way of getting around town.

The service was operated by a company formed under the Scarborough Tramways Act of 1902.

Edmundson's Electricity Corporation, the main construction contractor, plugged the system into the town power station off Seamer Road, which it ran. The power came from overhead cables.

Five miles of track, with a 3ft 6in gauge, were laid along the seafront in the south bay and from West Pier all the way through town and Falsgrave to Scalby Road.

The tracks were six-inch grooved 45ft girder rails weighing 90lb per yard.

It took seven months to lay them, from October 1903 to the following May. The cost of construction, including an extension to the power station, was £96,000 - roughly £10.5m in today’s money.

Scarborough Tramways Company had to pay the corporation a rent of £25 per mile of track.

Route 1 went from West Pier along the front, up Vernon Road, left into Westborough, through Falsgrave to Scalby Road and back into town via Manor Road, Prospect Road, Hanover Road, Westborough, Newborough and Eastborough. A handsome old tram shelter still stands at the top of Victoria Road.

In those days, Hanover Road was the main access road to the north side. A fine, large building called Westfield Terrace stood where the Stephen Joseph Theatre is now.

“It was all pulled down to smash a large road through that was then

called Northway,” says historian Steve Messruther, who is working on a video project about Northway.

“Later that road was extended to the bottom of Prospect Road. They did that by demolishing hundreds of houses that were Brook Street and Albion Street. Modern living and the introduction of motor cars caused more damage to the town than the Germans did in two world wars.”

Another route started at the railway station, went down Westborough and turned left at Aberdeen Walk, long before either road was made one-way. Trams then passed along Castle Road and North Marine Road en route to Peasholm.

When not in use, the trams were stationed at a depot off Scalby Road, near the junction with Manor Road.

A proposal to run a track around Marine Drive wasn’t followed through.

There were 14 trams to begin with. They were so successful with residents and visitors that the fleet was expanded by four a few months after the system was launched.

Another four arrived the next year, then five more were acquired from Ipswich Corporation Tramways.

In February 1922, tram drivers Thomas Ramsbottom and Thomas Morley were fined five shillings for exceeding the 4mph speed limit down Eastborough. Evidence showed they were driving at 9mph.

Disaster struck on 21 September 1925 when an empty tram going up Vernon Road skidded on greasy rails and rolled backwards. The driver slammed the brakes on, to no avail. The tram careered down the hill in reverse, derailed itself and ploughed through the glass roof of the Aquarium ballroom – now an underground carpark. Fortunately, the driver jumped clear and no-one was hurt.

As buses offered cheaper fares and more routes, the trams’ days were numbered. The last one travelled from West Pier to the Scalby Road depot on 30 September 1931.

The mayoress opens the tram service on 6 May 1904.

About 1,500 hundred music lovers enjoyed the 16th annual Musicport at Whitby Pavilion.

The indoor festival brings an eclectic mix of international, regional and local acts to the Yorkshire coast every year.

The 60-plus acts on offer ranged from a young samba band and a commissioned piece which opened the festival to folk singer and fiddler Eliza Carthy, who closed it.

Ballet star to direct at Scarborough Spa

THE RUSSIAN State Ballet and Opera House will bring the The Nutcracker to Scarborough Spa on November 26.

The show is Directed and choreographed by The Russian State Ballet former Bolshoi Theatre Dancer, Konstantin Uralsky and features a live orchestra with over 30 musicians.

Described as a highly accessible ballet, it includes familiar music such as The Spanish Dance and the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

Producer Alexej Ignatow, of Amande Concerts Ltd, who has co-ordinated the UK tour said: “It’s fantastic to bring such a talented and inspiring Russian ballet company to the UK to offer local audiences the opportunity to experience world class ballet performances.” n Visit www.scarboroughspa.co.uk or www.ballet-tickets.com

I could only make it on the Sunday and particularly enjoyed Tuppeny Blue’s mellow, laid-back, jazz-influenced songs about life in Whitby, penned by singer Simon Allum, on the Lighthouse stage.

An Americana trio, the Whiskey Dogs, performed old-time mountain music, hillbilly blues, dust-bowl ballads and jug-band hokum in the crazy spirit of the 1920s and 30s, on the North Sea stage.

And the Demon Barbers, who blew

everyone away with energetic musical theatre at last year’s Coastival in Scarborough, held no punches in Whitby.

Their XL show featured material from their recent Disco at the Tavern CD, performed by clog, sword and break dancers.

Three more new plays New season, new name for choir from Springboard A script-reading rehearsal

Conductor Bill Scott, centre, with Scarborough Community Choir (to order this photo, please ring 353597).

Words and photo by Dave Barry

Scarborough Community Choir is learning new material at its new season of weekly rehearsals.

The ensemble, previously known as Graham Community Choir, is practising a Cole Porter selection and songs such as Big Yellow Taxi, Leaving on a Jet Plane and a lovely Irish folk song, Will Ye Go Lassie Go. Conductor Bill Scott hopes the choir will perform a setting of The Lord is My Shepherd which he has composed for them.

In addition, the choir will be learning Christmas material including Guadete and Carol of the Bells for the festive season.

Its Christmas concert will be at Graham School at 7pm on Friday 11 December.

People can take their own food and drinks to consume during the performance.

The choir performs in many and varied venues in the community, ranging from care homes to the Spa, where it recently

sang with Russell Watson.

On 12 March, with the Sandside Orchestra, it will perform two pieces which are seldom heard in Scarborough, at Westborough Methodist Church.

Local maestro Frank James will be the soloist in Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue and the choir will present a dramatised version of Gilbert and Sullivan’s Trial by Jury.

This will feature talented local soloists Lesley Machen, Kathryn Irwin, Tim Tubbs, Hilary Watts, Tony Kirby, Dave Blaker and Chris Gray, with choristers playing jurors, bridesmaids and members of the court.

African spirit to shine through at Stephen Joseph Theatre

TAVAZIVA returns to the Stephen Joseph Theatre on Wednesday 4 November with Africarmen, a sumptuous and evocative dance production loosely based on Georges Bizet’s popular opera Carmen.

Through a synthesis of ballet, contemporary and African dance, Bawren Tavaziva’s powerful choreography is performed by a cast of outstanding dancers.

Played out through the entanglement of desire, deceit and corruption in a township of oil-laden Equatorial Guinea, lingering ancestral voices are at work here amongst the dreams of a better life.

This latest production from Tavaziva, previously seen at the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Tavaziva 10, Sensual Africa and Heart of Darkness, features a new score composed and arranged by Fayyaz Virji of the acclaimed Warriors International and

Africarmen by Manoj Nair is the company’s most ambitious work to date.

Africarmen can be seen at the Stephen Joseph Theatre on Wednesday 4 November at 7.30pm. Tickets, priced from £10 to £15, or £6 for under 30s, are available online at www.sjt.uk.com and from the box office on 01723 370541.

Local cricket merger could be a big hit

YMCA basketball players out in force in Leeds

by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

Beckett League action by Pete Spence BIG changes to the structure within cricket in the local area may be in the offering as the Readers Scarborough Beckett Cricket League and Derwent Valley Cricket League have held preliminary talks about a possible amalgamation ahead of the 2016 season.

The sport has seen a number of teams cease to exist in recent years with now 57 teams competing across both leagues.

Beckett League Secretary Simon Dobson confirmed that discussions have taken place.

He said: “The Derwent Valley League approached us about possibly joining into the Beckett League set up. We held a joint meeting between both organisations and all clubs were sent correspondence outlining these talks. The Beckett League committee

met separately to confirm we are receptive to the proposal.”

The Derwent Valley League fielded only 18 teams in the 2015 season with both Sewerby 3rds and Forge Valley 4ths dropping out in the early weeks of the season, whilst the Beckett League lost Fylingdales 2nds after just three matches.

Dobson added: “There is a rich tradition and heritage to the Derwent Valley League and we acknowledge their approach to us will not have been an easy decision for them. We will continue with discussions on how we move forward with this proposal, incorporating a new look structure and securing cricket in our region.”

ELEVEN young basketball enthusiasts from Scarborough YMCA were treated to a trip to watch Leeds Force in the British Baskketball League.

The young troop were funded by a North Yorkshire Youth's scheme, that allowed them to hire a minibus and make the trip over to Leeds' Carnegie Hall headquarters for the showdown with Liecester Riders.

Sadly for the group, Leeds couldn't find their winning way, despite a solid start that saw them take a 10-0 lead. The more experienced Leicester side got into its stride and eventually closed the game

Archery club on target with top presentation night

by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

SCARBOROUGH Archers held their Annual Prize presentation night at The Poachers Barn, Osgodby.

During the year, four competitions have been running. During the winter months there was a Portsmouth indoor round and a Frostbite outdoor round. During the summer

with a comfortable 87-59 victory. While the Leeds Force side failed to impress, the entire Scarborough contingent were impressed by Leicester's running guard, veteran Connor Washington. It was the home side's Zak Wells that stood out most for the group, however.

The Scarborough group themselves train regularly at the YMCA in St Thomas Street every Tuesday evening and are a welcoming bunch for teenagers that wish to join them in their high-octane activity, under the watchful eye of coach Martin Roberts. n For more information ring 01723 374227.

Dave Hammond (left) congratulates Roman Danilov

by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

LOCAL Judo man Roman Danilov has won a national judo title.

Eighteen-year-old Danilov from the Scarborough Ippon Club travelled down to London to take part in Judo For All (UK) months it was a National evening round and a Sunday morning American round.

All the competitions were closely contested with categories for men, ladies and juniors in both recurve and longbow bow styles.

Over fifty members and friends turned up to help the trophy and medal winners celebrate their achievements.

A meal was kindly provided by staff of

national championships and registered four wins from four fights to gain his weight category gold medal.

The U71 fighter took on judoka mainly from the south of England in a tough pool and came out victorious using a number of different techniques. The medal is the latest in a line of successful outings for Danilov, who recently gained his 1st kyu brown belt in an event based in Scarborough.

He opened his JFA national account by securing wins with an armlock, a strangle, a particularly impressive ankle sweep and two hip throws.

"It was very tiring, but I enjoyed it," he said. Roman was the first member of the young Ippon club to attend the nationals, where coach Dave Hammond had success with his previous pupils in Dundee.

"Roman did extremely well," said his proud coach. "I knew he would do well. His second fight was really tough, but when he got through that I knew he would go on to win the pool."

Ippon club train at The Street on Wednesdays and anybody wishing to take up this toughest of martial arts can contact Dave on 07525451454.

A raffle was run by Paul Oates to raise money for club funds.

The main trophy winners were: Caitlin Pitts, Tasha Pitts, Neil Simms, Phil Simms, Andy Wiles, Colin Greenway and Zak Hutchinson.

Other winners not shown were Robin Little, John Beck and T Jay.

GoLFING REVIEW BY DERRICK ARDEN

New faces in office at North Cliff

NORTH Cliff welcomed both a new Captain and a President into office this month. Barry Poynter was ushered into office by retiring Captain Paul Helliwell. Barry was born and bred in Tottenham and moved to Scarborough in 1973 to work at D. H. Greaves and was quickly involved in the local sporting scene. He joined North Cliff in 1982 and New North Cliff Club President has enjoyed some playing success having won a Dave Ellard Presidents Putter and a Medal Final. His intention now is to help in moving the golf club forward and we wish him every success. The new Club President is David Ellard, David joined the Club in 1994 and in his first year won the rabbits Thomson Cup Competition and has been winning trophies at regular intervals ever since and currently plays off a handicap of six. He has held several roles on the Club committee over the years and served as Club Captain in 1994. Born in the Old Town of Scarborough he is a very well known and popular figure throughout the area. He is looking forward to his term as President and considers this position to be the pinnacle of his golfing experience.

The aim of the session is to assist the children in understanding how to play the game and have fun but with a competitive edge. All of them look to improve on their previous score and make the necessary progress Junior prize winners and coaches to obtain a handicap.

Juniors shine at academy presentation evening

The Scarborough North Cliff Golf Club Junior Monday Night Academy Prize Presentation was held at the end of their summer season. The Monday evening sessions are for prospective junior golfers who have no handicap and in some cases are not members, but are interested in becoming golfers. This event was well attended by family and friends in support of their youngsters achievements throughout the summer. The highlight of their season is to play several rounds over a shortened course for the Shirley Hunter Cup and this year’s winner was Ayane Butterworth with a score of 202, the first time a girl has won this trophy. In second place came Will Holborn followed closely by Oliver Webster. Ayane only recently joined the Monday evenings sessions because she wanted to improve her game out on the course and that’s the something North Cliff encourages. Certificates were also handed out to those who achieved exceptional rounds of golf during the summer and Philip Woodcock, Junior Organiser at the club was delighted with their performances. Several of those attending the prize presentation now have handicaps thus allowing them to play in the club junior competitions. Philip has looked after the junior section for many years at the club and has established a general progression for children interested in the game. Our professional, Fraser Kelley runs Saturday morning lessons for those interested in taking up the game and once he feels they are proficient enough they transfer to Monday night when Philip and his team take

The early starters needed their waterproof clothing but by mid morning the rain had ceased and the sun shone for the rest of the day. The defending champions Scarborough North Cliff, who led the league standings by two shots at the start of play, put in another strong team performance.

Their nearest challengers Hainsworth Park also played well and posted scores of 64 & 65 and are still hot on North Cliffs heels only three shots adrift. The two other pairs who tied for first place in the better ball results were Paul Lockwood (0) & Brian Calum (13) of Hessle and Steve Uzzell (0) and Sam Middleton (5) from Hornsea but it was the latter pair who picked up the Tankards due to a better back nine.

Challenging hill climb rounds off Mount season

Pictures by John Margetts

THE final hill climb of the year for the Auto 66 Club took place at the famous Oliver's Mount Circuit in Scarborough.

With a good entry of 60 competitors and sunshine predicted all day fans were in for a great day of racing.

Starting at 9am, all riders and drivers had two practice runs to familiarise themselves with the circuit. Starting at the end of the paddock, around Farm Bends, across the start/finish line for the road races, around Mere Hairpin, up Sheene Rise, left at Grant's and finishing on the service road just behind the esses, this track was enough to challenge the finest hill climbers in the country.

After practice there was a short tea break then racing began at 11.00. Everyone received six race runs which was received really well by all the competitors. From 125's to super bikes, sidecars to Morgans, this event had it all.

With the 2016 dates being released for Road Races, BSB, Moto GP and WSB, the organisers at Oliver's Mount have had to take the decision to revise their 2016 event dates.

This will be 70th anniversary year of racing at Oliver's Mount and the fans can enjoy the racing in Scarborough with as few date clashes as possible.

The first meeting of the year is, as always, The Spring Cup. For 2016, the meeting's new official title will be 'The Spring Cup Bob Smith Trophy Road Races', which are to be held on Saturday and Sunday 16th/17th April 2016.

The Second meeting of the year will be 'The Cock O’The North Continental Road Races'. Moving from its most recent position in the calendar of July, to Saturday and Sunday 18th/19th June 2016.

The following month will see 'The Barry Sheene Road Races'. A favourite with classic and modern bike fans alike, this event will be run on Saturday and Sunday 23rd/24th July 2016.

The Auto 66 club are also hoping to organise two bike rallies at the Cock O’The North and the Barry Sheene meetings. The Cock O’The North rally for European machines, and the Barry Sheene for Japanese machines.

Invites have been sent to owner's clubs who will bring some of the best classic and vintage bikes around. There will also be an award for the best machine in the concours

2016

plus laps of the circuit.

Finally, the last meeting of the year will be the 66th 'Steve Henshaw International Gold Cup Road Races'. One of the jewels in the crown of road racing, this meeting is set to attract the very best TT riders all looking to take the Gold Cup home from the reigning Champion Dean Harrison. The Gold Cup will take place on Saturday and Sunday 24th/25th September 2016.

Words by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

SCARBOROUGH motorbike ace James Tadman capped off a breakthrough year by winning the North East Minitwin Championships at East Fortune near Edinburgh, Scotland.

It was a big win for the 22-year-old former Northstead and Scalby School pupil who was back to his best following an accident at Oliver's Mount at the Steve Henshaw International Gold Cup. He said: “It was a great win for me and it shows the hard work is starting to pay off.

“This year has been huge for me as I have got so much experience under my belt competing in Ireland, Scotland and England and making my debut at Oliver's Mount.

“I was delighted to win the championship and it is nice to come away with a trophy because the competition is high.”

James will have a break from competition now for the winter but plans on keeping himself fit playing local football.

He added: “I play for Newlands Reserves on a Saturday and Heslerton on a Sunday so it helps keep me in shape.

“I will also be doing some gym work and making sure I am ready for 2016 when I want to push on even more.

“I would like to thank WVS Auto Care, Road Racing Ireland and the Auto 66 Club for all their support.”

RADIO SCARBOROUGH’S TWELFTH MAN SPORTS SHOW HOST ANT TAYLOR BRINGS US HIS MONTHLY VIEWS ON THE WORLD OF SPORT

Helland Road!

By Ant Taylor

2001 seems a long time ago. This was the year Leeds made it to the UEFA Champions League. Since then this once mighty club has free fallen its way down to League One before promotion to The Championship.

We thought the dark days at Elland Road was behind us when Mr Massimo Cellino took over from Ken Bates & GFH. But people need to remember the first thing he did when he acquired the West Yorkshire club was to sack Brian McDermott after a heavy defeat, only to re-instate him a few weeks later.

Since the arrival of the infamous Italian, we have gone though five managers since April 2014. Cellino isn't called "The Coach Eater" in his native country for nothing.

We should of seen the writing on the wall with this, but as fans we have been blinded with the hope of securing promotion back to the promise land, The Premiership.

It's looking more unlikely that this once mighty club will ever get to play on the

Ant Taylor biggest stage in football any time soon, especially under the stewardship of Cellino. Now we have Steve Evens as the head coach and this guy may have done well for Boston United, Crawley Town and Rotherham United with getting these clubs promoted but even he comes with a dubious past with a suspended sentence for tax evasion. Only time will tell if he will be the man for the job, or will he just be the sixth manager on the roundabout of destruction for my club Leeds United, only time will tell?

SCARBOROUGH Athletic under-14s are even more hungry for success after getting the support of Subway in Eastfield as the side's shirt sponsors for a second successive season.

Following the league and cup double for the Boro side last campaign, the business

on Eastway has backed the team to repeat their achievements again.

Manager Garry McGrath said: "It is fantastic to have Subway on board as our shirt sponsors. We would like to say a massive thank you to Subway owner, Danny Wilson, for continuing to support us."

SCARBOROUGH Athletic Under21’s have been boosted this season by the support of The Grainary as shirt sponsors.

The U21's squad, currently competing in the new In-Play Premier Division against the top local academy sides, now have the backing of the business based at

Keasbeck Hill Farm in Harwood Dale.

Run by the Simpson family, The Grainary boast a range of fabulous attractions along with stunning views of the North York Moors National Park and the Scarborough coastline.

With country tea rooms serving gorgeous home cooked food such as soup, sandwiches and a new winter warmer menu, along with a Farmhouse Restaurant recently voted the second best in Scarborough, there is something for everyone on offer on the working farm.

Under-21s manager Steve Roberts was delighted to have the backing of The Grainary. He said: “To have the fantastic support of The Grainary for our young side is superb. Mark and his team have developed an attraction for the whole family to enjoy, and it is great to have their support as we look to develop our players to progress and move up to the next level.”

Boro look to improve after away day win Words by Will Baines & pictures by Pete Spence

Boro boss Paul Foot (left) discusses the game with a member of the Mossley managerial team

OCTOBER has been a dismal month for Scarborough Athletic, but an away win against Trafford last weekend suggests that they may have turned a corner.

After going nine games without a league win, the Boro players looked short of confidence, forcing joint managers Bryan Hughes and Paul Foot to freshen up the side over the last few weeks.

Recent additions include left-back Caine Winfarrah, Lewis Ferguson from Doncaster Rovers, winger Fernando Moke from Droylsden, plus goalkeeper Joe Cracknell has returned to the club again on loan from Bradford City as well as midfielder Sam Wright.

Gary Bradshaw closes down the Mossley keeper

Joel Dixon on the ball for Boro

Boro’s Caine Winfarrah charges down the left against Mossle At the start of the month, with the side short on confidence and struggling to regain their early season form, it was no surprise that Boro were dumped out of the FA Trophy with a 4-0 defeat to Kendal Town, The game started badly for the Seadogs as Rob Wilson was given time at the far post to look up and fire the ball into the bottom corner.

Boro then fell further behind when Kendal frontman Jordan Connerton reacted first to a whipped cross across the box, the striker converting from six yards to make it 2-0.

Dan Wilkins made the game safe for the Kendal shortly afterwards as he collected the ball in the box before firing across Rob Zand. Things went from bad to worse for the travelling support as Craig Conway added a fourth with an easy finish following a cross from Wilkins.

The poor form continued at Queensgate as first half goals from Michael Fish and Dave Short helped Mossley take home the three points against Scarborough Athletic with a 2-0 win.

After a promising start from Boro, they were landed a blow when Fish opened the scoring for Mossley after 17 minutes with a classic turn and finish into the bottom corner. After going ahead the Lillywhites kept the pressure on with Sam Robinson crashing against the underside of the bar before Dave Short added a second with a drilled shot in the area.

The home side tried to mount a comeback after the break, as Ryan Blott broke clear but nudged his angled shot wide. Boro sub Alex Peterson shot straight at the keeper before action switched to the other end with another Mossley shot striking the crossbar before the final whistle to leave the Seadogs stuck in a rut.

The dismal run continued as Boro crashed to a 2-1 defeat away at Radcliffe Borough.

After taking the lead through Nathan Peat’s first half penalty, Boro could not hold on in the second half as after a superb free-kick from Matt Davies levelled things up, Radcliffe took the lead through captain Rick Smith and never looked back.

It was then a quick turnaround as Harrogate Railway visited Queensgate in an entertaining 2-2 draw in midweek at Bridlington.

The visitors took the lead early on through Tom Owen, before Boro roared back into the game with goals from new signing Fernando Moke and Ryan Qualter saw the Seadogs end the first half in the lead.

Within ten minutes of the restart Railway were level through a long range goal from Jack Stockdill, with both sides missing late chances to claim all three points.

Athletic were desperately in need of a win ahead of the trip to Trafford last weekend to keep their hopes of finishing towards the top alive. Ryan Blott poked over from close range and new signing Sam Wright saw his shot well saved to leave it goalless at half-time. Boro were much improved after the break, showing grit and Next Boro games determination to keep pushing forward in search of a goal. The returning Joe Saturday 31 October Cracknell kept his side in it with a series of crucial saves, with the keeper also Glossop North End (A) 3pm KO settling down the defence.

With Boro pushing for a winner in the Saturday 7 November closing stages, Mallory picked the ball up, New Mills (H) 3pm KO cut inside then cracked a superb shot into the far corner to bring home the three Tuesday 10 November points for the visitors.

Boro had been on a wretched run after Whitby Town (H) 7:45pm KO destroying Harrogate Railway at the end Doodson Sport Cup of August, and there is still lots of work to be done to get back on track. The way Saturday 14 November the team pulled together for the victory Farsley Celtic (A) 3pm KO over Trafford has given hope to the Boro faithful that there is enough quality in the squad to turn around the club’s season Saturday 21 November and they can start moving back up the Droylsden (H) 3pm KO league table.
