SINGING THEBLUES OVERCLUB’S PLANS!

TRADERS and shoppers on County Road fear for the futureof their businesses if Everton FC move away from the areato build a new stadium elsewhere.

Store owners on the busy high street are concerned by thelatest developments linking the Blues to a new home at a dis-used dock site in Liverpool or in Croxteth.

A community group called County Road Regeneration areworried that if the plans come to fruition, revenue could dropfor many of the shops, bars and pubs in the area.

On match days, thousands of supporters of both Everton andtheir opponent walk along County Road on their journey toGoodison Park and many stores benefit from the passingtrade.

As well as the potential decline in business, some shop own-ers are also concerned that part of the culture of County Roadwill be lost if Everton move.

Owner of Sweeps Barbershop, John May, told the Cham-pion: “If Everton move there will be something lost as it'sbecome part of our culture. Continued insideSome of the County Road shops with Goodison Park in the background

Traders fear Everton ground moveFrom page 1“Every other Saturday we

have swarms of people onCounty Road and it's great tosee.

“As a barber shop, I can't seeit affecting my business toomuch but it definitely willaffect others.”

A Facebook group run byCounty Road Regeneration hasalso been posting about theongoing stadium development.

Jacob Harris said: “Loads ofshops on County Road will goout of business - for many of

the shops, most of their rev-enue comes from match days

Tom Richardson said: “Ithink the people in Waltonwanted Everton to moderniseGoodison Park to keep thetrade on County Road.”

Sandra Spencer added: “I'velived and worked this area allmy life and the money fromthe match keeps all theseshops and pubs open as thatmatch day boost of takingshelps them keep afloat.”

Kate Flanagan said: “I’d hateto think what would happen if

Everton moved. Walton is badenough now imagine what itbe like if it did move.”

As reported in the Championlast week, a possible site for anew stadium, in Walton HallPark, was ruled out by the clubwhich delighted campaignerswho had been against theplan.

Mayor Joe Anderson claimsEverton could have a newhome within the next threeyears, but a new site has notbeen confirmed yet.

l See story above

Blues ownerMoshiri weighsup stadium plan

FOLLOWING the news that Everton FC has ruledout Walton Hall Park as a potential site for a newstadium, attention has now turned to two otherlocations.

It has been reported that the club is eyeing up adisused patch of land on the dock in Liverpool andan area in Croxteth.

Supporters have endured years of uncertaintyover a new stadium but Mayor Joe Anderson nowbelieves this could become a reality within the nextthree years.

The dock land, owned by Peel Holdings, seems tobe the favourite option with Evertonians who havebacked the idea on social media rather than Crox-teth’s Stonebridge Cross, which is off the East LancsRo a d .

Peel took over the dockland in 2012 with hopes ofsparking a huge regeneration – although little hasactually happened so far in the long-term plan.

The site in Croxteth is owned by Liverpool CityCouncil and was once rumoured to be the newhome of a massive warehouse for online giantAmazon, but it never came off.

Hopes of a new stadium were boosted back in Feb-ruary when the Toffees revealed that Iranianbillionaire Farhad Moshiri had bought a 49.9%stake at Goodison Park.

When he took his majority share in the club, it wasrumoured that plans to build a stadium on WaltonHall Park could be scrapped, and sure enough thiswas then confirmed this month.

Controversial Off Licenceopening hours scrapped

A CONTROVERSIAL plan to openan off-licence in Walton until2am was rejected by LiverpoolCity Council after concerns raisedby residents and police.

As reported in the Championearlier this month, owners of PXKBargain Booze, on Walton Road,applied to the local authority tohave its closing time pushed backfrom 11pm to 5am.

Even though the owners offeredto bring forward this originalclosing time of 5am to 2am, itwas still deemed unacceptable bythe council.

At a Licensing Sub-Committeeheld last week, it was decided toblock the proposal after Mersey-side Police claimed it would“have a serious negative impacton the area”.

The person behind the applica-tion spoke at the meeting and putforward the argument that saleswill be increased which wouldlead to the creation of more jobs.

In a bid to prevent people frombuying alcohol and then drinkingit on the street, they also offeredto stop selling single cans of beerand only sell in packs of four.

However, a representative ofMerseyside Police also spoke atthe meeting and firmly stoodagainst the proposal.

They noted the offer to reducethe opening hours from the ori-ginal time but still wanted it to bere f u s e d .

As well as hearing from Mersey-side Police, there was alsoarguments put forward by a localcouncillor and a resident at themeeting against the plan.

In the end, the council decidedagainst the idea and the openinghours will remain the same.

A report published by the coun-cil states: “The Sub-Committeeaccepts what they heard fromMerseyside Police, local Council-lor and residents and moreweight was attached to theirevidence.

“The Sub-Committee recog-nised the specific problemsidentified in the area and Mem-bers had particular regard to theoperating circumstances whichp re v a i l .

“The Sub-Committee agreedwith what was said by Mersey-side Police about the likelyimpact having a negative cumu-lative impact.

“Members balanced what theyheard from the applicant, but feltthat no matter how well thepremises was managed, anyincrease in hours would still belikely to add to the particularproblems which the Sub-Commit-tee heard about.

“In those circumstances, theSub-Committee found that it wasnot appropriate to grant theapplication because to do sowould not promote the licensingobjectives.

“Therefore, the application isre f u s e d . ”

Drug lord stashedheroin and cocainein his house readyto sell on to Wales

A DRUG lord from Litherland who was describedby police as the “head of a conspiracy” has beenjailed for 12 months.

Michael Cheaveau, 29, of Nunsford Close, wasone of four other people who were put behind barsfor a combined 19 years at Liverpool Crown Courton Monday, May 23.

He was charged with conspiracy to supply heroinand cocaine after officers found his home was usedto keep drugs before they were sent and sold inNorth Wales.

Also jailed on Monday was Michele Mills, 50, ofLydiate Lane, Halewood who was sentenced to fiveyears, four months for conspiracy to supplycocaine and heroin.

Paul Davies, 43, of Rhodfa'r Gorllewin, Denbigh-shire was jailed for seven years, two months forconspiracy to supply cocaine and heroin, and pos-session with intent to supply cocaine andamphetamine.

Paul Childes, 30, of Bethel Chapel, Victoria Road,Holyhead and Delwyn Robert Billington, 39, ofLlandegai Road, Bangor were also jailed.

Detectives from Merseyside Police were assistedby officers from North Wales Police during theseven-month long police investigation, which tookplace between February and September 2015.

Detective Chief Inspector Andy O’Connor said:“This conspiracy involved the mixing of drugs inMerseyside for supply to the North Wales area.

“Michael Cheaveau was the head of this conspir-acy, storing the drugs at his home before gettingthem mixed by Michelle Mills and then supplied toPaul Davies for onward supply to others in Mersey-side and into North Wales.

“This group have blighted communities in Mer-seyside and North Wales, profiting heavily fromthe sales of drugs.

“Merseyside Police is committed to targeting thosewho are involved in serious and organised crime.The clear message is that if you are involved in thesupply of illegal drugs, you will be arrested and putbefore the courts.

“I hope these sentences serve as a deterrent to any-one thinking of becoming involved in the supply ofdrugs." Cheaveau had been sentenced in July 2015

for possession with intent to supply Class A drugsand possession with intent to supply a Class Bdrug.

He received 64 months imprisonment in July andon Monday the judge sentenced him to a further 12months, to make it 76 months in total.

Sir Michael Wilshaw was at NotreDame Catholic College on Wednesday,May 18 to meet staff and pupils.

Notre Dame Catholic College was thefirst school to be rebuilt under the Mayorof Liverpool's £169 million LiverpoolSchools Investment Programme fundedpartly through Liverpool’s City Deal withthe Government, and opened in 2013.

Sir Michael Wilshaw was in Liverpoolat the invitation of Mayor Joe Andersonand Assistant Mayor and Cabinet mem-ber for education, employment andskills, Councillor Nick Small.

The invitation followed comments theChief Inspector made earlier this year

about the importance of education to thesuccess of the 'Northern Powerhouse'.

Sir Michael Wilshaw said: “I am grate-ful to the Mayor and Assistant Mayor forinviting me to Liverpool to see first-handwhat is being done to improve the city’sschools.

“During my visit I witnessed an enthu-siasm for learning from staff and pupilsalike, and I am pleased to see leadersfrom across the city working together toraise standards in education.

“Making sure our youngsters regularlyattend school is vital to improving theirlife chances, so it is reassuring to see thatinitiatives like tackling poor attendancehave been made a top priority.

“Liverpool is an iconic city; known

throughout the world for its contribu-tions to industry and culture. It is onlyright that we strive to ensure that futuregenerations receive a standard of educa-tion that is fitting of the city’s name.”

Mayor Anderson added: “I wasdelighted to welcome Sir MichaelWilshaw to Liverpool to show him thework that we are doing in partnershipwith our schools to make sure our youngpeople leave school with the skills neces-sary to go on to lead successful lives.

“There is no doubt that educationstandards in Liverpool are muchimproved compared to a decade or moreago, and the 17 much-needed new andrefurbished schools being delivered aspart of my Mayoral pledges will make asignificant difference to teaching andlearning.

“But we are absolutely not complacent

and need to do more, so I was pleased toshow the Chief Inspector what is hap-pening on the ground and talk to himabout the Liverpool Challenge and otherprojects we have launched to drive ups t a n d a rd s . ”

Assistant Mayor and Cabinet memberfor education, employment and skills,Councillor Nick Small, added: “Liverpoolschools have lots to be proud of, but weagree with Sir Michael Wilshaw thatlocal political leaders must stand up andbe counted and support and challengeour education system when necessary.

“The visit has been a great opportunityto show him what we are doing in Liver-pool to make sure pupils get the bestpossible start in life, and reiterate thatwe will not shy away from having anhonest debate with our education part-ners, locally about the issues we face.”

Rehab forconvictedflasherafter latestincident

A WALTON man who exposed himself to a strangeron a busy high street was doing it “to get a buzz”, acourt has heard.

Jonathan Waring, 38, of County Road, already hada conviction from 2014 for twice exposing himself,Liverpool Community Justice Centre was told onMay 17.

On this latest occasion, the court heard, heexposed himself to a woman in the County Roadarea at 8am on February 21, by pulling up his top.The woman said that in “eye-shot” of others, includ-ing a 17-year-old, he held his genitals and shookthem about.

Prosecutor Matt Harvey said she contacted policeand directed them to the doorway of a flat where hecontinued to make gestures by thrusting himselfagainst a wall in a sexual manner.

Following his arrest, he was also found in posses-sion of heroin, he said.

During a police interview, Waring initially deniedany wrongdoing but then changed his mind. “Helater said that he had a habit of lying and admittedthat he had exposed his bum and his gentials,” MrHarvey said. “He denied doing it for sexual gratific-ation and said it was just to get a buzz at the time.”

Solicitor Rebecca Templeman said that Waringhad received a lot of input from the probation ser-vice and that measures had been put in place to helpaddress his behaviour.

Asking the judge to suspend any custodial sen-tence, she said: “I am asking you to give him achance to engage with the help that has been put inplace. There has been a significant improvement inhis cooperation in all the right areas.”

Sentencing him to two months in jail, suspendedfor 12 months, District Judge Lewis Jones said: “Onthe morning of February 21 you exposed yourself toa lady who was walking along the road and youcontinued to so. You seemingly noticed the reactionand you continued to expose yourself knowing thatshe was looking at you. It’s an unpleasant type ofoffence and one that causes offence and concern,certainly for families and children, and an offencewhich the courts have always treated very seri-o u s l y. ”

The judge ordered that Waring participate with 30days of a rehabilitative activity and 12 months ofprobation supervision, as well pay a fine of £200 forthe possession of heroin and a bail act offence.

He was also ordered to sign on the Sex OffendersRegister for seven years.

Mum’s mission tohelp the homeless

A WOMAN from Maghull was so affected by seeing the num-ber of homeless people on the streets of Liverpool she set up acharity to support them.

Julie Stow raises funds to buy sleeping bags, food and toi-letries and then she and her volunteers drive into Liverpool tohand them out to the homeless.

The charity is called Be Inspired, and has been up and run-ning for 18 months

It was set it up after Julie went to a gig in Liverpool and wasshocked by the number of homeless people on the streets,especially on Bold Street and by the Bombed Out church.

Julie, who is taking a break from her work as an animalhydrotherapist to concentrate on the charity, said: “Me and myson, Jack, took the train and seeing the number of homelesspeople affected me.

“I wanted to do something to help and decided to set up BeI n s p i re d .

“We go with the charity once a month and we take 35 sleep-ing bags, and toiletry bags for men and women, which consistof many useful items such as toothpaste and toothbrushes.

“About 10 of us go each time and we never experience aproblem. The homeless are always really grateful and standaround and chat.

“We usually go in about 7pm and it takes about two hours todeliver all the stuff that we have got

“We try and do this once a month, but the supplies are quiteexpensive. For this reason I hold charity nights at the Coachand Horses in Maghull.

John, the manager, gives me the room and DJ for free.“I have a raffle that local businesses donate to and singer

MEMBERS of a Ladies' golf club in Blundellsandswent back in time to help celebrate its illustrious his-t o r y.

West Lancashire Ladies' Golf Club recently markedits 125 year anniversary and golfers decided to dressup in clothing more appropriate to 1891 when it wasformed.

Anyone walking past the course would have beenforgiven for thinking they had slipped back to the

late 1800s when they saw the members teeing off inthe unusual attire.

The West Lancashire Ladies’ Golf Club had its own18 hole golf course and clubhouse until 1947 when,due to extensive damage to the course during WorldWar Two, the Ladies’ Club went into voluntary liquid-ation and amalgamated with the Gentlemen's club.

However, the Ladies had their own clubhouse andlooked after all their own affairs until the current

clubhouse was built in 1962.To celebrate the anniversary, the club recently hos-

ted the Lancashire County Senior Ladies’Championship played over three dayswhich waswon by Chris Stokes from Clitheroe Golf Club.

They are also hosting the Lancashire Ladies’County Championship.

In addition the English Women’s Amateur Champi-onship will be held in July.

Man used his oldAmerican LAPDpolice car to blockroad after accident

A CAR ended up on itsroof following a collisionon Southport Road inLydiate at the weekend.

A white Vauxhall Astraand a black Ford Focuswere involved in the col-lision at around 1pm onSaturday, May 21, withthe Focus ending upsidedown .

Four police cars atten-ded, a fire engine and anambulance while the road wasblocked off for more than two hours,reopening at around 3.40pm.

It is understood that one personreceived minor injuries in the acci-dent.

The incident led to traffic chaos asemergency services attended thescene with huge tailbacks of traffic.

Such was the chaos that one localresident who has an old American

police car parked it across SouthportRoad at the junction of Bells Lane toredirect traffic away from the scene ofthe accident.

Another local resident also stood inthe middle of the road at the junctionof Liverpool Road North, SouthportRoad and Liverpool Road telling con-cerned drivers about what hadhappened and advising them ofalternative routes.

POLICE are urging car owners to makesure their vehicles arelocked after a spateof thefts in Netherton and Bootle.

Over the past few weeks items havebeen taken from cars on DunningsbridgeRoad, Marian Way, Chestnut Walk, MountAvenue and Exeter Close.

In three of the incidents, vehicles wereleft insecure which led to the loss of money.

A Merseyside Police spokesperson said:“If you are parking your car at any timeor place even in your own garage, it isessential to lock your car, even if onlyleaving it unattended for a few minutes.

“It is equally important to leave noth-ing on display inside the vehicle.Opportunists will try the car doors andlook through the windows to see if thereis any item worth taking.”

Postal workersdo a fantastic jobIn response to the letter published in the Cham-pion, May 11, about the postal workers’ s t r i ke .

It amazes me that someone has taken the time towrite in regarding a strike that affected their postbut not bothered to find out the reason behind theindustrial action.

The withdrawal of labour is always used as a lastresort so the decision to strike would not havebeen taken lightly.

A bit of research may well have made the authorcompose a letter have more sympathy towards thepostmen, and women, who do a fantastic job,instead of worrying about their own minor issues.

I’m changing bankafter NatWest moveMy husband and I have been NatWest customersfor 40 years and wouldn't have considered leavingif they had not decided to close both Old Roan andnow Maghull branches.

Your article states there is a lack of people usingthe Maghull branch.

I go every couple of weeks and the queue invari-ably stretches to the door and the staff are alwaysfriendly and helpful.

Your article mentions just a ‘three mile trip toA i n t re e . ’

But there is nowhere to park and buses to Ain-tree are every 30 minutes from the Square, so itcould to two hours for a two-minute transaction!

I refuse to do on-line banking, along I guess,with many older customers.

I have made an appointment to transfer toanother bank in the Square, which is very easy.

It takes just seven days to swap everything overand we will be paid £100 for changing.

I advise anyone inconvenienced by this closureto do the same.

School should not have hadto close for the local electionsI’m sure I’m not the only parent wonderingwhy Lydiate Primary School was closed onThursday, May 5 for the Local Elections whenLydiate has two perfectly suitable venues toserve as polling stations – namely Lydiate Vil-lage Centre on Lambshear Lane (the sameroad as Lydiate Primary School!) and LydiateParish Hall on Southport Road.

Whilst I accept some headmasters are stillflexible when children need to miss schooldays on occasion, I think it was the formerEducation Minister Michael Gove who said“Even missing one day of school can have adetrimental effect on a child’s education”.

So the message being sent out is ‘No youc a n’t keep your children off school when YOUwant to.....oh, and by the way we’ll fine you ifyou do, but if WE want you to keep your chil-dren off school, that’s fine and you’ll just have

to arrange childcare or take leave fromemployment at your own expense.’

It raises a number of questions:1. Is this a extra day’s paid leave for the

headteacher and staff? (parents have nochoice or even possibly lose a day’s pay if selfemployed).

2. Does the school have a choice in the mat-ter?

3. Does the school receive any recompensefor closing for a day?

Another example of one rule for the massesand another for the establishment.

Does anybody know who I send my fine tofor having to keep my children of school?( n o. . . . . d i d n’t think so!)

Dog had to eat itsowner to surviveRe: The sad case of Butch the Staffordshire Bull Ter-rier which was ordered to be destroyed because itate its dead owner.

It is a known fact that any starving dog would eat adeceased person.

Hunger and survival instincts take over and tothem, that person is no longer the owner they loved.

It is a very tragic situation, but this does not meanthe dog is aggressive and deserves to be put tosleep.

I would want my dog to do the same to me, if itmeant he would survive.

Butch’s owner must have loved him and wouldprobably feel the same way.

I hope Butch’s supporters win their appeal to savehim.

Junior doctors must accept thatNHS needs to be a 24/7 serviceWhat is the NHS for?

Dr Stockdale’s recent letter in the Championstates some uncomfortable facts about the abil-ity of the NHS to cope with the demands madeof it.

But it unfortunately contains some prettynasty political invective which is distinctlyunhelpful.

Like him I would question the Government’shandling of the Junior Doctors’ issue but Iwould equally question the conduct of the Brit-ish Medical Association who made it quite clearmany months ago that they were out to makelife uncomfortable for the Government.

In the meantime patients suffered.It certainly is high time the problem was

resolved but we surely have to accept that apopulation that lives and breathes 24/7 alsoneeds 24/7 availability of medical care.

Industry learned many years ago that a work-

ing system based on overtime cannot beefficiently sustained so is it too much to hopethat the NHS can learn the same lesson?

The NHS was created to deliver medical carefree of charge at point of use.

That is more important than the jobs of itsemployees.

So NO Dr Stockdale your fight is not my fight.I am not interested in fighting for your job.

What I am interested in is seeing a much moreefficient NHS and if this means delivering carevia the private sector then so be it.

The question that needs answering is why theNHS is not doing it more efficiently itself, andthere is a lot more to that than playing theblame game, whichever side of the politicalspectrum you are on.

Eric BeaumontA patient

Reducing quality of life fordoctors will not help patientsDr Alex Stockdale highlights the problem of the crisisin the NHS (Champion, May 11).

Junior doctors run (yes, run!) around the corridorsof our hospitals providing 24 hour care, seven days ofthe week.

When the Government talks about weekend work-ing, what they mean is that they want junior doctors toaccept a normal working week as six days out of sevenas a means of eventually reducing pay for firstly thejunior doctors and then all NHS staff.

As my father-in-law lies terminally ill in hospital, yes-terday I did not see a member of the ward nursing staffwho spoke without an overseas accent.

We now have to rely on overseas workers to staff ourNHS as its career structure becomes increasingly unat-tractive to our own citizens.

There is a shortage of all doctors, including GPs, inthe NHS.

My colleagues are increasingly overworked, stressed,and tired out, resulting in deliverance of health care

that is not of their best. My daughter, a hospital doctor,medical registrar, with higher UK Royal College quali-fications, recently left this country to work abroad.

She is likely to accept higher training offered to her inrespiratory medicine.

She finds that she has time to talk to patients and hasresources to care for patients in a proper manner in herjob overseas.

She is able to book leave months ahead.Overall, her quality of working life and everyday life

is better than if she were to stay in this country.She works nights and weekends.If you value a quality NHS, support the junior doc-

tors. Reducing the quality of life for junior doctors willnot help patients, quite the reverse.

The NHS is falling apart under our eyes and mostother people seems blissfully unaware.

School wins awardfor how it teachesboy with epilepsy

A SCHOOL in Litherland which spot-ted that one of its pupils may haveepilepsy and then brought in a wholenew teaching policy after his dia-gnosis has won an award.

Teachers from English MartyrsRoman Catholic Primary Schoolbelieved that five-year-old JonathanSlawson could have the conditionand they spoke with his parents.

After doctors confirmed this, it ledto the school introducing its own careplan just for Jonathan and all staffwere trained in how to teachsomeone who has epilepsy.

His picture was also circulated so allstaff members could easily identifyhim and they are all regularly briefedon his condition and any changes thatmay occur.

This attitude to help the youngsterhas now landed the school with anEpilepsy Action education awardwhich was handed out as part ofNational Epilepsy Week.

Teachers were presented with an'Edward' award for their efforts inhelping Jonathan.

Nikki Slawson, Jonathan’s mum,

nominated the school for the award.She said: “We are so pleased that

the school is being recognised with anE d w a rd .

“Jonathan, and we as a family, havereceived excellent support from theschool. If it hadn’t been for the schooland the training staff have received,we might not have known aboutJ o n a t h a n’s epilepsy until muchl a t e r. ”

School staff and Jonathan’s familyuse a school home care diary, which iscompleted daily and includes col-oured circles to help the child tocommunicate how he is feeling.

The school adapts Jonathan’s dayaround him depending on how wellhe is.

For example, if he is struggling withnoise at lunchtime, he will be movedwith his friends to a quieter area.

If Jonathan is tired as a result of hisepilepsy, school staff allow him timeand space to recharge or have a nap.

Lewis Dinsdale, head teacher atEnglish Martyrs Roman CatholicPrimary School said: “We aredelighted to accept this award.

“English Martyrs is an inclusiveschool and we work to supportJonathan, and all our pupils, in anyway we can. It is lovely to receiverecognition for our work.”

Hugh Baird hailed forits vocational courses

HUGH Baird College was hailed for its pioneeringvocational offer in a visit by the former educationsecretary and Career College Trustee Lord KennethBaker and television presenter Prue Leith.

Students got a chance to meet the pair and discusstheir experiences studying at the college.

The visitors were treated to a tour of Liverpool onan open top bus, with commentary provided bysome of the students studying the Visitor Economycourse at the Career College at Hugh Baird.

Hugh Baird College principal and chief executiveYana Williams said: “It was an honour to welcomeLord Baker and Prue Leith to our College.

“It was a pleasure to show them just how far ourstudents have come since they joined the CareerCollege here at Hugh Baird.

“Their development is not only testament to theirhard work and dedication, but they owe a lot to the

staff who work tirelessly to ensure they have accessto the most outstanding ‘money can’t buy’ experi-ences such as working alongside Michelin starredchefs.”

Lord Baker said: “The opportunities being offeredto students here are exceptional and demonstratethe employer-led education that I am so passionateabout.

“I wish all the students here every success in theirfuture career and would urge other colleges to fol-low Hugh Baird’s lead in establishing such apioneering vocational offer for 14-19 year olds.”

Prue Leith added: “I have always felt that therehas not been enough emphasis on providing youngpeople with the practical skills they need to preparethem for a career in the hospitality industry.

“Here at Hugh Baird, students are getting real lifeindustry experience at a young age, which is fant-astic news for both them and indeed for the futureof the industry.

“I am hugely impressed with the very talented stu-dents I have met.”

£250,000 a w a rd e dto ADHD charity

PEOPLE in Sefton who have Attention deficithyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have welcomed thenews that a charity which aims to battle this illnesshas been awarded nearly £250,000.

Kelly Bannister, 21, from Litherland, and BenNapier, 16, from Formby, have been supported bythe Liverpool-based ADHD Foundation in the past.

The pair are delighted that it will now benefitfrom two separate funds from Comic Relief andBBC Children in Need.

ADHD is thought to be caused by developmentaldifferences in the brain that affects the parts con-trolling attention, concentration, impulsivity,activity levels and memory.

The money will enable the charity to continue itswork over the next three years in supporting famil-ies living with ADHD and otherneurodevelopmental difficulties including autism,Asperger syndrome, dyslexia, dyscalculia, sensoryprocessing disorder and Tourettes.

Kelly Bannister said: “I didn't get a diagnosis untiII was 20, and like so many young girls who are over-looked, struggled because there is still a mistakenstereotypical assumption that all children withADHD are simply badly behaved.

“It is great news that the foundation is able to con-tinue providing this much needed service for youngpeople in Sefton, like myself.”

Ben's mum Pauline Napier added: “The service theADHD Foundation provide is fantastic.

“The team are dedicated and genuinely care for allthe families that they work with.

“The parent-skill building, young persons skill-building and therapy (among other services wehave accessed) have made a huge, positive impacton our son’s life and our whole family.

“I cannot thank the foundation enough for alltheir support and help over the last few years andknow how much they have helped, and continue tohelp, other families like ours.”

ADHD Foundation chief executive, Dr Tony Lloyd,said: “In what is truly great news for the foundation,these new funds from Comic Relief and BBC Chil-dren in Need will enable us to build capacity andcontinue to grow the organisation in line withdemand across the UK.”

Talking Newspapermarks 25th anniversaryA CHARITY in Waterloo whichrecords and sends out newsso blind people can hearabout latest issues hascelebrated its 25 yeara n n i v e r s a r y.

Sefton Talking Newspaper(STN) held a special event atthe Northern Club in Crosby onFriday, May 13 to help celebratethe big day.

The charity, founded in 1991,has more than 100 visuallyimpaired subscribers whoreceive USB sticks in the postfree of charge with recordednews bulletins.

Originally, the group had usedcassette players but they nowuse top-of-the-range recordingequipment such as new micro-phones and laptops to moveinto a modern era.

At the anniversary celebra-tions, current listeners andvolunteers were joined by MPBill Esterson, as well as repres-entatives from organisations forthe visually impaired whichhave lent their support.

The chairman, John O’Han-lon, gave an enlightening talkabout the organisation, its ori-gins and activities.

The service is providedweekly and the recording roomremains at St Mary’s ChurchRooms in Waterloo.

John said: “There are lots ofpeople to thank for our ongoingsuccess. The legacy inheritedfrom our former volunteers,visually impaired groups from

across the north Merseysideregion and our current seventeams who put in 30 plus manhours a week to produce a 90minute talking newspaper – thisdoes not include the hoursspent by individual membersresearching suitable articles. Wewere pleased to welcome BillEsterson to the event, it wasgood to see our local MP givesuch support.”

MP Esterson added: “I greatlyadmire the work done by STN.My political colleagues and I,

can at times, find it very hard tomake speeches that capture theinterest of an audience. Whatthese volunteers do is actuallyincredibly skilful and time con-suming work, and something Ihold with great appreciation. Iam hugely proud of those in myconstituency who selflessly ded-icate their abilities to helpingthose with impairments."

Volunteer loses ten inchesof her locks for charity

A VOLUNTEER at AintreeUniversity Hospital has hadher long flowing hair cutshort in support of CancerResearch UK.

Rebecca Redmond fromWaterloo raised £321 by havingten inches of her hair cut off atFellas Barber Shop in Waterlooto raise money for the charity.She donated the hair to theLittle Princess Trust, a charitywhich uses donated hair tomake wigs for children suffer-ing from a range of illnesses.

During her time in hospitalsuffering with Fibromyalgia, along-term condition that causespain all over the body, Rebeccashared a ward with two cancersufferers and made a promise tothem that she would one dayraise money for CancerResearch UK.

Rebecca said: “I was astoun-ded at the beauty they still heldin their hearts and pride in theirsouls. I was in awe of one ladyand we became friends in thatshort time.

“I know how it feels to be sounwell to the point you can’t getout of bed and not pursue yourdreams or ambitions.

“Their stories inspired me tofight that little bit longer.Maybe my pain won’t ever goaway, but they made me appre-ciate what I do have, rather

than what I don't have. Theyhelped me realise these littlethings and now I would like tohelp them.”

A group of 11 staff members spent the day volun-teering at Emmaus Merseyside and got stuck in bycleaning and assembling furniture.

The furniture will be used for the bedroomswithin Emmaus' soon to be opened residential facil-ity for formerly homeless people.

John Worthington, finance manager at DeutscheBank, said: “It was great to be able to spend a dayworking with Emmaus Merseyside - and hard work

for a team used to being sat at their computers!“It has raised the team’s awareness of this fant-

astic charity and gave us a chance to give somethingback to the community.”

The employee volunteer day at Emmaus Mersey-side was part of the Deutsche Bank’s corporatecitizenship programme which supports employeesto share their time and skills with local charities,good causes and communities.

Ray Myers, superstore manager at Emmaus Mer-seyside, said: “The group worked very well togetherand gave us some much needed support to preparethe rooms for the arrival of our first companions.”

Emmaus Merseyside will eventually support 28formerly homeless people by providing them with astable home and meaningful work for as long asthey need it.

The charity runs a social enterprise in Seaforthwhere they sell donated furniture, clothes, books,bikes, household goods and upcycled products.

A WOMAN from Crosby will take on agruelling 75 mile trek across Nambiain aid of a children’s hospice.

Maria Sassons, 43, will take sevendays carrying a 24kg bag full of sup-plies in temperatures of up to 30d e g re e s .

The former St Wilfred's High Schoolpupil, who now lives in Epping, said:“I've been training by going to EppingForrest and carry a 22kg bag with meto get used to the weight!

Maria got the idea to raise moneyfor Claire House after she returned toLiverpool in Easter when a friendwho works in the health care sectormentioned Claire House and thework it does for local people.

She said: “I researched it and someof the stories are heartbreaking.

New laws on cigarette boxpackaging backed by councilSEFTON Council and HealthierFutures have welcomed a change intobacco packaging laws.

Tobacco made for sale in the UK nowhas to be sold in drab green pack-aging with dramatic visual healthwarnings.

Moor Lane topicof history talkTHE next meeting of St John's Local History Groupwill take place at 2pm on Tuesday, June 7 at StJohn's Parish Centre, Denmark Street, Waterloo.

Roger Hull will lead the talk and will discuss thehistory of Moor Lane. For more information, con-tact the secretary, Paul Baker, on 0151 474 2503.

I’m back, withmy two not sohairy friends!AS many of you in Maghull may have noticed, Iam at presently the owner of two dementedwhippets.

Like my two beautiful rough collies, theyanswer to the names of Tina and Cinders andbehave in exactly the same manner.

So yes, I guess they are still the same dogs.What happened during my recent holiday in

Aintree Hospital was that they spent time invarious kennels and somehow managed to pickup fleas.

The 'cure' for this was to shear them like sheepand the result was hardly pleasing – if amusingto some.

According to my vet, their coats should havegrown enough in 10 weeks or so to make themjust about recognisable as 'Lassie dogs' – butinterestingly, now they have grown just a little,more than one person has approached me ask-ing what breed they are, and saying how nicethey look!

Beauty is, I suppose, in the eye of the beholder,but 'nice' isn't quite the word I would have chosen.

Anyway, to progress...I'm still not managing to get around very far or

very fast, but a slower pace does at least giveyou more chance to notice what is going onaround you.

A new target are the timetable cases at busstops around where I live.

The modus operandi is to prize open the caseand attempt to pull out the timetables them-selves – which usually seems to result in creasedsheets which are difficult to read.

The twerps who do this also try to set fire tothe plastic 'glass', which results in ugly brownholes and hopefully burnt fingers.

Merseytravel obviously foresaw this by nolonger fronting the timetables with glass.

The pity is that there doesn't seem to be any form ofpunishment available to fit the crime any longer.

You can't jail 'em, they laugh at so-called com-munity service and of course a quick clip roundthe ear'ole is now on the 'completely unaccept-able' list. So we (and Merseytravel) can justgrimace and bear it.

Some aspects of so-called 'corporal punish-ment', in school and at home puzzle me.

When I was a nipper, I'd get a quick clip frommy dad for insubordination or rudeness.

Teachers still made good use of the ruler.And come secondary schools, add to this arsenal

the hurled board rubber, the slipper and theultimate scourge – the cane – and living danger-ously could prove to be just that. Dangerous.

I was never caned (though I escaped once mythe seat of my pants (pun intended), but I feltthe slipper – and of course those days you couldbe kept in or put into detention without havingfirst to get permission from you parents.

You would explain why you were late homeand run the risk of getting another wallop if youtold the whole truth.

You certainly learned the lesson that badthings happened unto you if you broke the law –either civil or school - which lesson youngstersof today seem unable to grasp.

Yes, I am an old reactionary. But as a child Ihad my moments, which attracted the attentionof Mr Slipper et al.

But I did learn right from wrong, and grew upnot to hate my persecutors but to realise theywere doing me a favour and steering me downthe paths of righteousness rather than the roadto upsetting others and expecting to get awaywith it.

Logic Estates, on South Road,has been named 'the best estateagent in the North West' at thenational Estate Agent of The YearAwards 2016 for the third con-secutive year.

Drink driverhad forgottenthat he had alock knife in car

A MAN from Crosby admitted to drink driving butwon in his case in court that a lock-knife found bypolice in his car was being carried for lawful pur-poses.

Daniel Burleigh, 18, of Blundellsands Road West,and four of his friends were followed in his CitreonDS3 by police into a car park off Wingfield Close,Thornton, at 4am on March 4, where he was arres-ted on suspicion of drink-driving.

Officers also conducted a search of the car andfound a retractable camouflaged lock-knife in thecentral console.

Burleigh, who was found to have 43 microgramsof alcohol in 100ml of breath, the legal limit being35mcg/10ml, subsequently pleaded guilty todrink-driving.

However, he maintained that he’d been using theknife to cut tape off boxes, as he had moved houseon March 1, and denied possession of a bladed art-icle in a public place without reasonable excuse.

The law states that it’s illegal to carry a knife orsharply pointed article in a public place unlessthere is a reasonable or lawful excuse for having it;such as for work or religious reasons, or if it is partof a national costume.

Burleigh told the court he’d put the knife in theconsole the day before he was stopped after afriend noticed it had fallen on the floor. It was stillthere because, “It just slipped my mind,” he said.

Burleigh told the court that he had been in theAir Cadets and wanted to join the RAF. He alsoattends Aintree Pistol Club two to three times perweek, he said, where he uses the knife to removestuck bullets from rifles as the rifles get too hot andthe loading bolt can break your fingers.

Prosecutor Craig Holmes referred to discrepan-cies between his police interview, when he said hehad moved a few weeks beforehand, and his testi-mony before the court which said he had movedonly three days before.

“Your account has changed significantly becauseyou realised that if you had the knife for a coupleof weeks there would be no excuse for it,” he said.

And in summing up, he said: “It would have beenremembered that the knife was there two or threetimes per week when he attended the shootingclub, so he would have no excuse. He could notclaim that he had simply forgotten about it.”

Solicitor Eric Walter asked the court to considerthat Burleigh had been nervous when interviewedby police due to it being the first time he’d ever beenarrested and also because he suffers from dyslexia.

He had taken over the lease of his new flat onFebruary 17 and had begun preparations for mov-ing then but he had not actually moved in untillater, was the defence’s case.

After the legal advisor informed them that forget-fulness can be used as part of a defence, providingthere is another qualifying argument, the magis-trates acquitted Burleigh of carrying a knife in apublic place without reasonable excuse.

For drink-driving, however, they fined him £300,ordered costs and charges of £115, and bannedfrom driving for 14 months, with the option ofreducing the ban by a quarter if he takes the drink-drive awareness course.

Park is turned into 'community hub'C O R O N AT I O N Park has beentransformed into a “community hub”according to delighted residents whoare taking part in a number of newactivities.

With the weather getting warmer,more and more locals are gettinginvolved in groups such as the CrosbyVeterans Walking Football and Corona-tion Park Boaters Club.

These are just two of the activitiestaking place on a regular basis, asgroup members believe it shows how alocal park can bring the communityt o g e t h e r.

One regular park-goer, Faye Burnssaid: “It's lovely to see so much going

on in the park. I take my dog here mostdays and it's nice to see not just chil-dren taking advantage of the park butpeople of all ages. It feels more like acommunity hub than a park.

“It makes the park seem busy and fullof life which is great for the area. Themore activities the better in my opin-ion!”

The Mayor of Sefton Stephen Ker-mode paid a visit to Coronation Parklast week to meet with the variousgroups and see what they have to offer.Walking Football and some of the otheractivities are run by Sefton Council inpartnership with the Friends of Alexan-dra and Coronation Parks.

Health groups becomedementia friendlyNHS South Sefton Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG)and NHS Southport and Formby CCG have signed up tobecome ‘Dementia Friends’.

Both CCGs are working towards being ‘dementia friendly’with 100 reception staff at Sefton GP practices already havingreceived the training.

In addition, a group of staff at the CCGs’ offices receivedtraining from the National Clinical director for Dementia atNHS England, Alistair Burns,

He said: “It was fantastic to be here and I was delighted tomeet with so many people at the CCG. It was good to hearabout the work they are already doing to improve dementiadiagnosis rates in Sefton and the post diagnosis support thatthey are offering to patients.

“I was really impressed with the enthusiasm and energy inthe room and thoroughly enjoyed the session which so manypeople attended. It is good news to hear that the CCG areamong the few CCGs who have signed up to become dementiafriendly. It is so important to raise as much awareness as wecan and with their partners I’m sure the message will bespread far and wide.”

The CCGs’ have signed a pledge with Sefton DementiaAction Alliance (DAA), supporting the national movement tobring about a society wide response to dementia.

The Sefton DAA is made up of organisations in the boroughwho aim to work together to radically improve the lives ofpeople living with dementia and their carers.

Its official launch in Sefton was for Dementia AwarenessWeek on Wednesday, May 18.

Part of the CCGs’ action plan in the alliance is to raise aware-ness about dementia in the community and to encourage

member practices and providers to become dementia friends,which they have both started working on.

Fiona Taylor, chief officer at both CCGs, said: “Dementia is a pri-ority area for both CCGs which is why the training was importantto us. At the session when staff were asked if anyone in the roomknew someone with dementia, of course, over half the room liftedtheir hands.

“We were asked to make a pledge and on behalf of the CCG I amkeen to spread the word on dementia and whilst we’ve work to doto improve care and the diagnosis rate, I am really pleased thatthe CCGs are becoming dementia friendly and that we are part ofthe alliance, which is so important for Sefton.”

ENTERTAINMENTBlue's Antony Costa isenjoying his time in musical

B LU E ’S Antony Costa is having a goodtime playing Milton in the musicalSave The Last Dance For Me.

The show can be seen at the LiverpoolEmpire from Monday, June 6 to Saturday,June 11.

Antony Costa is best-known for being amember of the band Blue, who have sold15 million records worldwide. He said:“Milton is one of the airforce guys and heis a bit of a lady’s man and a bit of awheeler and dealer. He is the guy whogets all the girls back to the airforce baseto have a few drinks, and a bit of fun. Heis the go to for a good time. It is goodplaying him because he is a bit of acheeky chappie and a bit of a wide boy.”

The jukebox musical features a mixtureof rock n’ roll classics and Antony com-mented: “The music in the show includesthe music of Doc Pomus and MortShuman. It contains songs like: Teenagerin Love, Save the Last Dance for Me, 1-2-3 by Len Berry, Viva Las Vegas – the list isendless.

“All I can say is that the people whocome down and see it are going to have agreat time.”

The show is written by Laurence Marksand Maurice Gran, who were behindGoodnight Sweetheart, Birds of a Featherand The New Statesman. It follows two

teenage sisters through the summer of 63as they have a holiday to the seaside,without their parents. Antony added:“The show works because it is very nos-talgic and it includes great tunes, andtakes people back to when everythingwas freer and they could do everythingthey wanted. There was no technology,no Twitter and no Facebook. People justsocialised and had a good time.

“It is good to look out at the audienceand see the audience’s faces and see themswaying along to all the tunes.”

The first major role in musical theatrefor Costa, 34, was as Mickey Johnstone inBlood Brothers in London’s West End in2006. “I had a year in London which wasbrilliant,” he said. “Blood Brothers holdsa special place in my heart as it is the

show that Bill Kenwright and his teamgave me the opportunity to appear inmusicals. I went for the audition and heliked it and from that day I was gratefulto be working for such amazing people asBill and doing a great show like BloodB ro t h e r s . ”

The Champion spoke to Costa a daybefore this year’s Eurovision song con-test. Blue represented the UK in theEurovision Contest in 2011 with the songI can and they came 11th. When askedabout the experience, Costa replied: “Itwas the most-hard work I have experi-enced of 15 years in the business. I havenever worked so hard in all my life. It wascrazy but what an experience. The con-test was very nerve-wracking and we feltlike a rabbit being caught in the head-

MOTORSWhy driverless cars get unexpectedbut definite ‘yes’ vote from me

THERE’S somethingironic about amotoring-friendlymonarch announcingthe latest bid to backdriverless cars.

Her Majesty loves driv-ing so much that foryears she had a RoverP5B parked nearby justfor her personal use(and don’t forget, she’s atrained mechanic). Yet itwas the Queen’s Speechlast week that the Gov-ernment used to signal itwas going to be doingmore to make driverlesscars a reality, partly byencouraging Britishfirms to make themwork properly andpartly by insisting thatwe should all be able toget insurance cover forthem.

Which you’d thinkwould leave me a littleu n e a s y.

I – as anyone who’sread Life On Cars overthe past seven yearsmight have gathered bynow – love driving. Ilove it so much that I’llend a stressful day at theoffice by hopping intoan MX-5 and doing 15

miles for no good reasonother than it beingenjoyable. I love jump-ing into different carsand delving into the dif-ferent facets of whatthey do, and discoveringwhether they’re betterat making big distancesdisappear or makingcorners a thing to bereveled in. I’ll go thelong way around simplybecause there’s a niceroad somewhere in thePeak District, and winddown my window in theMersey Tunnel if I’m insomething with a mem-orable exhaust note.Enjoying driving is whatgreat cars are all about.

But driverless cars getmy support, and it onlytakes a return trip toOxfordshire to explainwhy they do.

On a working day withan appointment inAbingdon I spent four ofmy eight hours doingjust one thing; driving.It wasn’t the sort of driv-ing I crave, but a dull,monotonous slog oncongested bits of theM40. Not since Iwatched the Star Wars:

The Phantom Menacehave I clocked up thehours I’ve lost from mylife - Time I could’vespent tapping up art-icles on my laptop ordreaming up new andcreative ways to banishKatie Hopkins from Bri-tain forever were spentlooking at the back ofmany stationary NissanQashqais.

Driverless cars willgive us all those wastedhours back. As long asDavid Cameron en-shrines our right tosafely enjoy the B4391then I’ll happily backany car that lets me sitin the back with alaptop and a pint whileit does all the hardwork.

I suspect even HerMajesty would probablyapprove – she canfinally sack the chauf-feur!

Audi has already proved with this driverless TTyou can have zero effort and motoring fun in thesame car

SPORTBowling pair helpBootle close gap onleaders then set upcrushing cup winFIRWOOD Bootle’s opening bowl-ers, Chris Stenhouse and ChrisLiptrot, were at their belligerentbest last weekend, propelling theirside to two emphatic victories inleague and cup encounters on suc-cessive afternoons.

Conditions were damp on bothdays, and Craig Prince made thecorrect decision to invite Wallaseyto bat first in Saturday’s homePremier League match.

It was a decision which paid richdividends as the two seamers shotout half the opposing batting line-up for just 23 runs.

Alex Eagles (24) and Greg Beaver(10) – the only Wallasey batsmen toreach double figures – did their bestto instigate a revival with a sixthwicket stand of 28, but Liptrot (4-32) and Stenhouse (5-35) wouldnot be denied and the visitors wereskittled for 69 inside 39 overs.

An opening stand of 40 betweenDavid Snellgrove and Scott Butter-worth ensured that Bootle wouldendure few alarms.

And even though three wicketswere lost along the way, the homeside won comfortably off the firstball of the 16th over and are nowbreathing down the necks of theleague leaders Ormskirk, a mere

eight points separating the topt w o.

Farnworth Social Circle arrived atWadham Road the following daysporting impressive credentials asunbeaten leaders of the BoltonLeague and they had no hesitationin batting first on calling correctlyat the toss.

Little did they realize what wasawaiting them as Liptrot and Sten-house knocked over their top sixbatsmen, including Australian pro-fessional Jake Scicluna, for 14 inthe first nine overs.

Number 8 Chris Barrow decidedthat all out attack was the only real-istic response to such a diresituation as he struck four 4s andtwo 6s in an aggressive knock of 34before skying a drive which wassafely pouched by Danny Davies,and the visitors were all out for 54with 26.4 of their 45 over allocationgoing unused.

Bootle were once again left with arelatively straightforward task, andJackson Knight enjoyed himself inthe unaccustomed role of openingbat, making a breezy 31 not out asthe hosts won by 8 wickets in the11th over of their reply.

Bootle travel to Lytham on Sat-u rd a y.

Northern suffer shockhome defeat to RainfordNORTHERN suffered a shock five wicketdefeat at home to Rainford in The Liver-pool & District Cricket CompetitionPremier Division on Saturday.

Stephen Lucas had carried his bat (103*inc 12x4 & 1x6) for the hosts and Ian Car-roll hit 26 as Northern batted firstandfdeclared on 202-6, with John Dotterstaking 4-82.

In reply, 48 each from Dotters and skip-per Paul Farrar helped lead Rainford tovictory on 206-5.

Ormskirk remain top of the PremierDivision after a three wicket home winover Leigh, a Ross Zelem century (102 inc9x4 & 3x6) and 48 from Danny Wil-loughby enabled the visitors to finallydeclare after 59.3 overs on 224-7, withJamie Barnes taking the bowling honourswith 5-67. In reply, 84 from Josh Bohan-non, 41 from Michael Jones and 36 fromAndy Baybutt saw the hosts to victory on224-7.

Formby claimed their first win of the

campaign with a 36 run win at NewBrighton, young Australian Tym Crawford(80) led the way with the bat for Formby,Elliot Ketteringham hit 48 and CharlieGallagher 31* as the visitors declared on226-7.

In reply, 6-40 from Graham Boltonhelped reduce the hosts from a command-ing position at 130-3 to 190 all out.

Maghull fall to 10 wicket defeat byAinsdale with Burscough staying topIN the First Division Maghulllost by 10 wickets at home toan Ainsdale side who upuntil then hadn’t won aleague game this season.

The hosts were put into batand rolled over for just 72with Jon Ring (33) and GregGillespie (25) the only bats-men to hit double figures, asMal Swift 5-24 and JoeWhite 3-28 caused havocthroughout the innings. Inreply, skipper Andy Barlow(38*) and Mark Foster (37*)eased Ainsdale to 75-0 andleave the hosts pointless.

Burscough remain top of

the table after a comfortable6 wicket home win overFleetwood Hesketh.

The visitors slipped to 20-4before Derek Sykes (27),Steve Gregory (26) and 19each from Lee Bolton andTommy Wareing gave themsomething to bowl as theywere dismissed for 128, withNavdeep Aujla 4-36 and JonStone 3-52 taking the major-ity of the wickets.

In reply, Stone smashed4x6’s in an unbeaten 50 andAujla 36 as the hosts sailedto victory on 131-4, withDanny Murphy taking every

wicket with 4-20.Southport & Birkdale were

beaten at home by 4 wicketsagainst Sefton Park, thehosts were dismantled forjust 77 with Chris Brownlow(48) and Dean Skelton (10)the only batsmen to reachdouble figures, with theexperienced RobbieHoughton taking 3-11. Inreply, the visitors also foundbatting tough as they slippedto 30-4, before an unbeaten40 from Danny Kelly guidedthem to victory on 78-6.

I can leave my son ... knowing he is well looked after. I have total respect and a very high regard for the members of staff.

Thank you to each and every one of you ... you truly made a difference.


WELCOMEDay care is provided through numerous centres across Sefton and West Lancashire, through various agencies including local authorities, private care companies, health trusts and charities.

Day centres can be handy as respite for a regular carer, or as a pleasant change to a person’s regular routine.

They will specialise in varieties of care, such as for the elderly, adults with learning disabilities, mental health or people with specifi c conditions such as dementia.

Generally they provide a range of activities, which may include craft, gentle exercise, entertainers or speakers, games or quizzes or trips out.

Meals are also provided so ensure you leave full instructions detailing any special dietary needs.

Day services are provided in various locations across the county, including resource centres, community settings or within a supported living service, amongst others to enable people to live as independently as possible.

People using this service may live on their own or with family or a carer - everyone is in a different situation.

Requests for day centre places are taken from a variety of sources, including Social Care and Health departments, the Health Authority, GPs, family, friends and individual people themselves. Waiting lists are not necessarily handled on a ‘fi rst come fi rst served’ basis, but on need and availability of a suitable place.Charges for day care vary between each facility so it is best to contact the centres directly for up-to-date fees and details of how to pay.

Day Centres

Welcome to your Focus on Care, designed to help you make sense of the huge amount of care services available in the area and the options local to you.

For some, care can be a confusing and diffi cult subject - but it needn’t be. There are certainly plenty of options and once you have found the services or products

right for you, you will wonder how you managed without them.

From residential care to community care, dementia and respite care, this guide will advise you on the types of care available and point you in the right direction when you decide which is the route for you.

CARE HOMES Guidelines & TipsGuidelines & TipsMoving into a care home is one of the biggest decisions anyone can face. Here are a few important considerations:

PEACE OF MIND

Anyone can actually get information on a care home and see for themselves how well they are doing and/or highlights good and bad areas that may be important. You can get inspection reports by searching for the care home on the Care Quality Commission website (www.cqc.org.uk) or Ofsted (www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ofsted) for children’s care homes.

LOCATION

Always ensure that the care home is within reach of family and friends and that shops and facilities are easily accessible. Noise can also be an issue so visit the location at different times of day and week.

NEEDS

Find out the care regime and ethos of the home. For example, is the home focus on individual needs or do residents have to fi t in a set routine? Match what they do and believe in to what your needs are.

VISITS AND OUTINGS

Find out about time for visits and outings. Does the home provide outings and can anyone come visit any time?

COMMUNICATION AND SAFETY

Find out how communications work out with the staff. Can you request things directly, are there some support groups, what supervision and safety measures are in place? This consideration is particularly important if you are acting on behalf of someone who is considering being a full time resident.

Other considerations to think about are ethnic, cultural and social needs as well as dietary advice. Finally, some homes will allow pets which may be important to you.

Before choosing for certain, it is always a good idea to ask for a temporary stay of a month or so. This can sometimes be arranged and is an excellent way of seeing for yourself whether the home is right for you.

The Internet can also be your friend so look for independent reviews (Google the home and see whether anything is available online for you to read)

Though this research may feel, at times, exhausting and time consuming it is worthwhile remembering that choosing a care home is for many, a long life decision and care must be taken every step to ensure the correct home has been selected for your needs.

As we become older some of the things we take for granted such as vision, hearing and oral health can deteriorate and there can be some important implications if checks are not carried out or personal hygiene steps are not followed in a more rigorous manner.

ORAL HEALTHGum disease and heart disease have been shown to be connected and maintaining good oral hygiene can play an important part in fi ghting heart attacks and strokes. There are other worrying links also with diabetes and pneumonia. Furthermore, gum disease can instigate tooth loss and can have some serious ramifi cations. It is important to keep up with dentist visits and ensure that any dentures and false teeth are properly fi tted and well looked after.

EYE CAREOlder adults can experience a much higher risk in falling prey to eye disease and vision problems and that is why it is important to have regular check ups and report unusual symptoms. If you are 65 or above, you should have your eyes tested at least once a year. Glaucoma for example is a progressive disease that will only be detected as it progresses (slowly). Only regular visits and qualifi ed advice can or will help detect it.

HEARING CAREHearing loss is extremely common and approximately one in three people between 65 and 74 experience hearing loss. Loosing hearing can have a profoundly negative effect on lives, depriving people from being part of society and it is another important area to check and get advice about in your later years.

With so much focus given to physical disability as you grow older and more frequent visits to your GP and hospitals are a necessity, it is sometimes easy to forget about teeth, ears and eyes but as in all matters, prevention is often better than cure so make sure that you do get check ups and professional advice in the three fi elds.

Residential, Nursing & Dementia Care

DEMENTIA

Dementia can strike anyone, regardless of background or lifestyle. When someone becomes aware that their mental abilities are declining, they will feel increasingly vulnerable, stressed and anxious. They will need their friends, family and carers to help them retain a sense of identity for as long as possible.

The fi rst thing that people with dementia will need is a regular routine to help them overcome increased inability to remember the simplest of things. They need encouragement, not criticism. They will want, as much as anyone, to retain their independence for as long as they possibly can.

Because it is important for dementia sufferers to still feel useful, they need to be encouraged to do as much as their illness allows. Things like making a bed, laying a table or a spot of gardening can make all the difference to what a day holds for a sufferer. Memory aids, especially at the start of the illness, will be useful to remind dementia patients where things are. Pictures on cupboards of what’s inside or pictures on doors of what the room is (loo, bedroom, etc) can be a lifeline.

It is also important to remember who that person was before he or she fell ill. If she was a keen cook, she will still enjoy preparing food with you, if he was an enthusiastic gardener, he will enjoy

sweeping leaves outdoors. Music and pets can still be part of their lives. Just because they don’t react the same way as they did, visitors should not stop coming.

Watch out that someone with dementia eats well. It is important because patients often can forget the importance of food. Sometimes involving the people you care for in preparing the meal can make all the difference. You may have to be fl exible in changing your behaviour as their eating patterns and habits change. Above all, remain calm. Stressing yourself and a dementia sufferer at the same time won’t help anyone.

Dementia is a true game changer in anyone’s life for them as well as those who care about them. Many areas such as sleep, hygiene and general wellbeing will call for dramatic changes of patterns and you will have to adapt. You need not do it alone though.

Here are some organisations that may help you along the way:

www.alzheimers.org.uk

www.dementiacare.org.uk

www.youngdementiauk.org

www.dementiafriends.org.uk

There are many more resources out there. The important thing to remember is that dementia strikes many many lives and support is available.

HELP AT HOMEINDIVIDUAL SOLUTIONS

Many people can live at home and get along fi ne with some help. The range available is quite comprehensive and help can be tailored to an individual need. For example, you may fi nd that a mere thirty minutes a day is suffi cient to assist with morning breakfast, washing and dressing.

This sort of help can be tailored from 15 minutes to full day support for those who may need a live-in carer.

If you fi nd yourself being able to live quite an independent life but requiring help for specifi c tasks such as going out to shop or walking the dog or even cleaning windows, there are solutions for you too.

You also may fi nd that assisted living aids such as a stair lift, a downstairs bathroom or a wheelchair can make all the difference with continuing to live at home.

CARERS SOLUTIONS

If you are a carer yourself there are ways of ensuring that you can get valuable assistance in what you do. These care workers can also be known as care attendants or personal assistants. Home help can provide services such as:

• Domiciliary care for the person you’re looking after. This includes help with getting up and going to bed, bathing, dressing, meals and medication.

• Help with shopping.

• Sitting with the person you’re looking after to allow you to have a break.

• Helping the person you’re looking after to go to the cinema, pub, shopping or to enjoy any other community activity.

• Practical tasks around the home such as cleaning and cooking.

Being a carer or becoming one can be daunting, not

least physically. If, for example, you are required to physically lift someone you must ensure that you can do so safely. Your local authority has a responsibility to consider your needs as a carer and the needs of the person you care for.. Simply contact your local authority and ask for a community care assessment for the person you look after, as well as a carer’s assessment to help you. For advice and guidance on moving and handling, ask for an occupational therapy assessment. You may be given free specialist equipment to help you, such as hoists, stand aids, transfer boards or slide sheets. You may also be able to fi nd free training

courses, which will teach you safe handling methods.

BUDGET

You may worry at how to fund any of the above solutions but there is help available there too.

The main sources of support are the NHS and your local social services department but,

depending on your circumstances, help may also be available from charitable organisations such as the Family Fund for example. Your GP should be able to guide you through the maze of available support and he or she should be your fi rst step.

ASSESSMENTS

An assessment will be arranged in most cases to ascertain what level of fi nancial help can be obtained and also what level of aid you will need. Check with your GP or local authority.

Making a Will Through SolicitorsEveryone agrees that writing a will is one of the most important things you will ever do. However, advice differs on the best way to do it. Simple DIY efforts are cheap but can be sorely lacking and the best, surest way is using the services of a solicitor.

First of all, you will be protected if something goes wrong. Solicitors are regulated. You can make complaints if anything goes awry, to the solicitor’s fi rm and then to the Legal Ombudsman if you are not getting anywhere.

You are reassured that all is done properly. Silly but common problems with wills, like using the wrong witnesses or forgetting to have it signed, could mean it’s useless when you die. Don’t leave it to chance.

The law surrounding inheritances (including Inheritance Tax and trusts) is complicated –

solicitors will be familiar with the law and will be able to help you make the most effective choices.

If a solicitor helps you write your will, they’ll usually store the original for you in a fi reproof safe free of charge.

COST

A Will will cost roughly between £200 to £400, sometimes rising to £600 if your affairs are more complex. See it as an investment for your inheritors.

Your solicitor is your best bet. He or she will give you advice and draw your will as it should be. If you prefer, a solicitor can also become executor.
