“Building success into community protection and enhancement” Over the last few years a number of residents have voiced sadness at the decline of the Brimstage woods area and in particular the Cheshire railings which define the boundary at the junction of Brimstage Road and Barnston Road.

Jeff, having learnt of the work carried out by a local resident on a purely voluntary basis, keeping the area tidy and paths open for use by local residents was determined that improvements were made to this area.

Jeff said “Progress over the years has been slow, with many reasons being given by council officials for not carrying out restoration works including a lack of available resources. I think however, that it is important that council tax payers in Heswall see the local authority investing in their community”.

Following a site meeting earlier this year with a senior council officer, the Heswall Conservative Action Team was able to secure a commitment to carry out restoration work to the Cheshire railing at the site which was in very poor condition. They are now in place.

Councillor Les Rowlands said “I`m delighted that our persistence & determination has paid off and the original railing has been replaced with like and not a cheaper and plainer version. This work was long overdue and brings a clear improvement to the immediate area”.

Jeff concluded by adding that “I hope this will be the first in a number of initiatives to enhance this

important and prominent Heswall site”.

HESWALL Neighbourhood Policing Team successfully completed a 50-mile sponsored bike-ride in aid of Claire House Children’s Hospice.Claire House is a part of Heswall Neighbourhood and offi cers visit regularly to show

their support to the staff and children. The hospice needs to raise £200,000 every month to keep its doors open and the offi cers’ aim was to raise at least £2,500.The sponsored ride received support from local businesses Castle Motors, Wirral

Wheelz, K-cycles, Iceland, and the Ravenscroft Public House.Fourteen people did the ride and police were accompanied by the local sports

development offi cer. All the offi cers completed the route, despite the fact that some were on borrowed bikes because they didn’t own one.The weather was fi ne and the

riders and back-up team visited all Wirral police stations, clocking up an impressive 53-miles. Neighbourhood staff collected donations at all stations raising nearly £500 from on-duty colleagues. This made a signifi cant contribution towards the goal which has now been exceeded with over £2,600 collected to date.Donations can still be made

l 10% off all D.A.P Products*l Microchipping only £15*Call today for an appointment*Offer ends 4th November 2009. May not be used in conjunction with any other offer

Helping your pet cope with Bonfire NightWhile we as humans may enjoy celebrating 5th November with fireworks, for many pets this can be an extremely stressful time. Dogs and cats have extremely good hearing and can be startled or afraid of noises that are loud or unfamiliar. There are a number of things that you can do to help your pet during this period so that they feel more secure and to help keep them safe.Protecting Cats and Dogs from Noise and AccidentsNever let your pet outside while fireworks are being let off, even if you think they won’t be fright-

ened as they can be very unpredictable around loud noises which could result in an accident and/or injury. Make sure that you have exercised your dog earlier in the day before the fireworks start so that they are more likely to settle in the evening. Keep all windows closed and curtains drawn and block off your cat or dog flaps so that they can’t escape. It is advisable to have your pet micro-chipped so if they do get out, they can be easily traced and reconciled with you quickly. We are doing a special offer of just £15 throughout October for microchipping – see our advert for more details. Having background noise which they are familiar with can be helpful to distract them, eg TV or

radio and this will block out some of the noise of the fireworks. Try to avoid leaving your pet alone as this can make them more stressed. There is also a product known as D.A.P (Dog Appeasing Pherom-one) which can be given to your pet in the lead up to Bonfire night. This simulates a scent signal that bitches produce to help their puppies settle and feel safe. D.A.P has been proven to help reduce firework fear in dogs and it comes in a variety of formats but the most effective product comes as a plug-in which you use in your home and is suitable for dogs of any age. It is advisable to start using this for a few weeks before the fireworks start so that it has time to take effect and your pet will get most benefit from it. Ask our staff for further details on this. Protecting Smaller Domestic AnimalsPets such as rabbits, guinea pigs, rodents and birds all need to be treated with special care when

fireworks are being let off as these animals are easily frightened.Make sure that you bring outdoor hutches and cages inside for the night or into a shed/garage

where they can be kept as quiet as possible. You can cover hutches & cages with a blanket to lessen the noise and keep the animal calmer but make sure that they have sufficient air circulation. You can also give your pet extra bedding to burrow in which will help to make it feel more secure.If your pet does have to stay outside, try to face its hutch/cage towards a wall and again cover it

with a blanket. Make sure that you do not let off fireworks anywhere near its cage and check regu-larly to make sure that it is not becoming stressed.

IN most cases where a couple purchase a home they will purchase it in joint names. The way in which they actually have the joint ownership worded in legal terms can have signifi cant implications not only in the case of the death of one of them but also in the situation where they split up and they were not married. If a couple hold the ownership in their home

as benefi cial joint tenants the survivor of them will become entitled to the whole ownership of the property and the half share of the fi rst to die will not pass to anyone else. This might not be the desired result in the case of an unmarried couple or where the surviving spouse was already in residential care with a potential claim on the property for the care fees paid by Social Services. There would be entirely different results if on the

other hand the couple were to hold their home as tenants in common because not only could their respective shares be left by will to whomsoever they chose but also their shares could be held in unequal amounts to refl ect what each had put into the property. It is usually helpful to consider what type of

ownership is to be preferred when you buy your home as this can then facilitate the leaving of your share in it by will in a situation when you may not necessarily leave it to your spouse/partner. In most cases, this will not be because you do not want him/her to inherit the share but because you do not want Social Services to claim it. (We should mention that holding as tenants in common has often proved a benefi t in the past in connection with Inheritance Tax planning wills but this is of less signifi cance now due to recent changes in Inheritance Tax law and may be of even less signifi cance in the future.) The rights of the surviving spouse/partner do not need to be prejudiced in a tenancy in common situation where the other’s share is left to someone else as it can be put into a small trust in the will so that the surviving spouse/partner is entitled to enjoy the benefi t of the share of the

deceased owner in the home and following the death of the surviving spouse/partner the share then passes to eg the children. In the case of unmarried couples owning the

home we usually recommend that not only do they hold as tenants in common but also that they have a separate agreement or declaration of trust detailing what is to happen in the event of either a sale situation or one of them no longer wishing to live at the property. It is often the case that the ownership is not in equal shares and, for example, part of the deposit has been provided by one partner sometimes with the assistance of his or her parents; this leads on to the fi nal part of this article. one of the factors resulting in the current state

of the housing market is the lack of fi rst time buyers able to proceed. The fi rst time buyer is often the fi rst link in a “chain” of conveyancing transactions. Because of the current reluctance of many lenders to loan more than 80% of the value, fi rst time buyers are having to scrape around for a large deposit often in a situation where they are still saddled with student debts. Some fi rst time buyers will be fortunate enough to look to parents to help them onto the property ladder. In cases where there is only one fi rst time buyer

then we could well advise the parents on being joint owners of the property with their child and once again there would be the consideration of whether or not there should be a tenancy in common backed by a declaration of trust.

APoLLo Blinds has started as it means to go on by wowing Wirral homeowners who have had the first glimpse of the fabulous new collections from Britain’s biggest blinds store chain. The company, which has more than 75 outlets

across the UK, has just launched a new service for the Wirral peninsula and Marc McQuilliam from Apollo Blinds is delighted with the reaction from homeowners to the range of quality made-to-measure window blinds, awnings and plantation shutters.“There is no doubt that homeowners on the

Wirral have been crying out for high quality window blinds products which are at the cutting edge of current home interior trends,” he said.“And if our first few weeks are anything to go

by then Apollo Blinds has filled that gap and will be well on its way to becoming the number one choice for anyone who wants to use window blinds and coverings to make their homes beautiful.”Apollo Blinds has the area’s most

comprehensive collection of Venetian, Vertical, Roman Roller and Conservatory blinds but it is some of the niche products that are exciting homeowners, according to Mr McQuilliam.“Plantation shutters are the fastest selling

new range within the Apollo Blinds group right now because they are becoming extremely fashionable and it seems everyone wants to get their hands on them,” he said.“Everyone I’ve showed our basswood shutters

to has gone weak at the knees when they see the quality and beauty of our collection and they want them because they recognise just what a difference they will make to their homes. “But it’s not just shutters that are wowing

our customers. our stunning new Calico blinds are a new variation of a Roman blind that has just come from Australia. They are lighter than traditional Romans with more neutral lightweight fabrics which are perfect for properties close to the sea.“And for people who have conservatories we

have the Perfect Fit system which has been specifically designed for uPVC windows so there is no need to drill into existing frames.”To book an appointment for one of Marc’s

complimentary home consultations please call 0151 203 6160 or 07863 805638. You can also visit www.apollo-blinds/wirral.

BooK REVIEWS: WHAT’S NEWBY ELEANOR DAVIES, MANAGER OF LINGHAM’S BOOKSTORE, HESWALL

Paperback Fiction: Me Cheeta by James LeverLonglisted for this year’s Booker Prize as ‘the wildcard’, this is the fi ctional autobiography of a chimpanzee. Sounds whacky? It is. A fantastic spoof on Hollywood memoirs, this is the life story of Tarzan’s chimp, his liberation from the Liberian Jungle and rise to stardom Cheeta’s bitchy asides about his fellow actors and his battle with drink and drugs make for hilarious reading. Anyone who remembers the golden days of Hollywood with affection will fi nd this a wonderfully funny and- surprisingly- at times quite moving book.

Autobiography: ‘My Better Half and Me’by Joss and Rosemary AcklandActor Joss Ackland and his late wife Rosemary were exceptionally lucky to have found each other, and their incredibly close bond saw them through the ups and downs of marriage for over fi fty years. This is an account of their lifelong love affair from both their points of view. Rosemary kept a diary from the age of fi fteen and continued it for her whole life even after the onset of motor neurone disease which left her mute and immobile. Interspersed with her entries is Joss’s commentary charting all the major events of their lives including

the rise of his brilliant career and the tragic death of their oldest son. A true old fashioned romance.

Cookery: ‘Nigella Express’ by Nigella LawsonNewly out in paperback, this is Nigella’s latest offering and it is a treat. Beautifully illustrated, it contains a whole range of wonderful recipes for every day cooking for all you domestic goddesses with little time to spare (I know you’re out there, Heswall and West Kirby!) New ideas for healthy eating mixed with some unashamedly comfort food all go together to make up a great cookery book . Would make a fantastic Christmas present.

Marie Curie walkers raise over £3,500!MARIE Curie Cancer Care held its annual sponsored walk from Thurstaston Visitor Centre last month. Families walked a scenic route along the Wirral Way, through The Dales and The Dungeon raising money to support the Marie Curie nurses. Marie Curie fundraiser Colette Byrne said: “The Thurstaston walk has really

exceeded our expectations, this year we had just over 60 walkers who raised an amazing pledged amount of £3,500!’ For more info contact Colette on 801 1405 or [email protected] Money raised from the Thurstaston Walk will be used to help the Marie Curie Wirral

home nursing service provide practical nursing care to people seriously ill with cancer in the comfort of their own homes.

Coffee time: Pictured at the Heswall Animal Welfare Society coffee morning last month are Joyce Mulcahy, Marie Nicholls, Carol Burd (secretary), Ann Farrell and Pat Murray (chairwoman). The coffee morning help to raise money for the society’s work in rehoming cats and dogs in the area.

PLANS for al fresco dining at The Ravenscroft pub, in The Mount, have been criticised by the Jehovah’s Witnesses.The pub’s owners want to extend the licence to allow alcohol to be served in the

outdoor area. But the Jehovah’s Witnesses say it will create too much disturbance at the nearby worship hall.

A NEW health centre will be built at the former Warrens Nursery, in Thingwall. Wirral Primary Care Trust and West Wirral Group Practice fi nally got their scheme

through the council after an eight year planning wrangle.The multi-million pound project will replace surgeries in Heswall, Irby and Thingwall.

YoU may have driven past Caldy RFC a hundred times and not realised that it is one of the biggest and most successful rugby clubs on the Wirral. Situated between West Kirby and Heswall, it

is set in the beautiful grounds of Thurstaston Country Park and not only plays host to Caldy’s four senior squads but also has an extremely successful Junior and Mini’s section that includes two fl ourishing Girl’s sides at U15 and U18.Caldy’s 1st XV have been leading the way

with their consistently strong performances that have secured them a place in the National 2 North League. Director of Rugby Matt Holt says: “The boys

have done well, we managed to fi nish a strong second last year to ensure our promotion into the new National Two North Division. There is no denying that this league is going to be an extremely competitive one but I am confi dent that we can improve on last year.”Caldy RFC have a one Club policy that

ensures both the Junior and Mini’s sections are well supported and as such thrive in their own right. At the end of last season the Junior section’s success was highlighted on Sunday

the 26th of April when the U13’s, U14’s and U15’s each fought their way to victory in the Cheshire Cup fi nal that was hosted at the club. The U13’s won a thrilling fi nal against local

rivals Wirral, battling their way back from 10 – 14 down to win their 1st Cheshire Cup fi nal 17 – 15 in a closely fought game. The U14’s had an equally tough fi nal against

Stockport. However, a previous training session with, All Black, Zinzan Brooke managed to provide the boys with all the drive they needed to overpower the Stockport forwards and fi ght their way back from 0 – 7 to take the lead and fi nish a comfortable 20 points to 7.The pressure was now on for the U15’s

to complete the hat trick and win their fi nal against a strong Lymm team. The tight score line (5-5, 10-5, 17-10, 17-17) refl ects just how hard the boys had to work for each point. Lymm never backed down, even when Caldy were awarded a penalty inside Lymm’s 22 in the last fi ve minutes of the game. Liam Isaacs made the decision to kick for goal and delivered making the score 20 – 17 and, for the third time that day, Caldy celebrated in style.

Youth policy pays dividends for rugby club

Iain Corlett, chairman of the Caldy Junior section commented: “It was such an amazing day, electric, and to have hosted it at the club as well, the atmosphere was unbelievable. It’s a day that won’t be forgotten at the club, we’re so proud of our boys – all of them!”It is not surprising that many of the 1st and

2nd team places are fi lled with players who have come right through the club. There are also those players, such as Shaun Woof (club captain), who have progressed to play representative and Premiership rugby, but who have returned to Paton Fields to play at their beloved club and pass on their knowledge and experience. Woof refl ects, “This is a club you come back to, we all do, it’s a special place”. Having said that, it is also a club that

openly welcomes new members; be they supporters, players or sponsors. So if you fancy coming down for a day you won’t be disappointed! www.caldyrugby.co.uk
