New school highlights long-term investment projects

FUTURE FUNDINGA new school building

is well under way in Hedon to replace

Inmans Primary School which has twice been hit by severe fl ooding.

The school buildings on Inmans Road were fl ooded, once in 2000 and again in the 2007 fl oods.

Now the council has received Government funding to re-build the school on higher ground.

The new school, designed by the council’s architects and due to open in 2011, is being built on the

existing playing fi eld. Once the building is in use the old school will be demolished and turned into a playing fi eld so the school does not lose any facilities.

Sally Morgan, head teacher, said: “We’re very lucky to be getting a brand new school with minimum disruption. The children have been watching the building work going on and are very excited about going into the new building next year.

“The devastation caused by the fl oods took its toll on the pupils who lost work and time in school when the building wasn’t open. This new building, which has been designed with many sustainable

features, will help us all appreciate the lessons we have learned from the fl ooding and the climate change agenda and provide continuity of education for all our pupils.”

The new 420 place school has been fi nanced by the council successfully bidding for Government money, available for projects linked to the 2007 fl oods.

Councillor Stephen Parnaby OBE, leader of the council, said: “We want to make it clear to residents that we are working hard on behalf of them to make East Riding a better place for everyone and that we will continue to bid for money from the Government and other

bodies for major schemes like this. “Against national news of

cuts and councils cutting back, residents may wonder why major building projects are still going ahead but we want to stress that these projects have been planned for a number of years and funds were already earmarked by the council.

“However, alongside these major investments, the council is already ahead in planning for the next few years and working on the spending reductions which will be necessary to meet the national public expenditure targets which are expected to be announced in the autumn.”

The most important exhibition of art and books ever held in the East Riding opens on

Saturday, 21 August.

The exhibition in the Treasure House, Beverley, attests to the generosity of the area’s great benefactor, John Edward Champney.

The Champney Centenary will celebrate the offi cial opening of Beverley Museum and Art Gallery in 1910.

The building, now part of the Treasure House, was paid for by Champney who also gave his extensive collection of paintings and books, which are of national interest.

Councillor Stephen Parnaby OBE, leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “We are paying tribute to a local man who gave so much for the benefi t of others.

“It is thanks to Champney that many

generations have had access to works of learning and beauty that would otherwise have been beyond their reach.

“His vision of a hundred years ago has been enhanced by the building of the Treasure House, funded with a generous grant of £3.9 million from the Heritage Lottery Fund, giving us a library, archive, art gallery and museum and all under one roof.”

The exhibition and associated programme of lectures and other public events are also being paid for by the fund.

Dr Gerardine Mulcahy, art gallery curator, said: “This event is expected to be a major attraction for those with an interest in one of the best collections of works in the Pre-Raphaelite mode.

“It includes the 20 paintings he bequeathed to the East Riding, six he left to the York City Art Gallery and six from Bankfi eld Museum in Halifax. This will be the fi rst time they will have been brought together since the collection was broken up in 1929 after his death.”

Champney bequeathed around 4,500 volumes, or books, to the library,

including valuable early editions of Charles Kingsley’s The Water Babies and a copy of Gulliver’s Travels, inscribed to Champney by the illustrator Arthur Rackham.

The public events include a series of lectures between 20 September and 8 November. Speakers include Dr John Markham, Professor Bernard Richards and Professor John Wilton-Ely.

The exhibition will run until 16 October. For more information or to make a booking, call (01482) 392790 or book online at www.eastriding.gov.uk/events.

TO vote in an election, your name must be included on the Electoral Register. Every year a canvass of all households is undertaken and a registration form delivered to every household. Residents must complete and return the form in order to be able to vote.

The form asks for

information about who is or will be living in a property on 15 October 2010. Residents are required by law to provide the details. If the form is not completed and returned, a canvasser will visit the household to ask for the information. The East Riding is due to have full ward and parish elections early next year.

It is important to note that residents will not be included on the Electoral Register just because they are council tax payers, they must complete an electoral registration form. As far as possible the form will be pre-printed with the relevant information, so most people can just sign and date it and return

in the pre-paid envelope. Electors who have previously “opted out” from the edited register should note that this option will no longer be pre-printed and they should mark this option again.

For more information about registering, ring electoral services on (01482) 393312/3313.

AN experimental one-way system in the area around Beverley’s Wednesday Market is to be removed on Wednesday, 11 August.

The one-way system was introduced in 2008 to protect pedestrians during a major re-paving scheme in and around Wednesday Market.

Now, following assessment of the impacts of the experimental traffi c regulation order on residents and on traffi c fl ows, an exhibition and consultation, measures imposing the one-way system will be removed.

This change will coincide with the surface dressing works programmed over the summer.

The one-way traffi c system was implemented along Eastgate between Trinity Lane and Wednesday Market, Wednesday Market main carriageway between Eastgate and Lord Roberts Road, and the full length of Lord Roberts Road.

TWO East Riding Children’s Centres are holding free family fun events this month.

On Friday, August 20 there will be a fun day at Beverley Children’s Centre, youth centre and Swinemoor School fi eld from 10am to 3pm.

On Saturday, August 28 Withernsea Children’s Centre is holding a joint open day with Safe ‘n’ Sound Day Nursery from 11am-2pm.

Both events will include activities for all the family, including face painting, arts and crafts and refreshments.

There is no need to book for either event, just turn up on the day.

COMPOST GIVEAWAYS: Loading up the compost

LEADING LINESLEADER OF THE COUNCIL COUNCILLOR STEPHEN PARNABY, OBE

THE new coalition government has certainly started its term of offi ce with a bang with one announcement after another on a whole range of subjects, includng services and funding; major changes to the way Government at all levels operates; and the way the public sector delivers. Perhaps the biggest and most challenging will be the proposed change to the National Health Service (NHS), and the Government have recently issued a white paper ‘Equality and Excellence: Liberating the NHS’.

The plans, which the Government say will restore real decision-making powers to patients and GPs, promise for the fi rst time in 40 years that there will be real local democratic accountability and will give elected councillors and councils a new role in ensuring the NHS is responsible and answerable to local communities. Councils will also be given the lead role in improving local public health.

There will be much work to be done over the next 18 months and fortunately we already have an excellent working relationship with the Primary Care Trust (PCT), which in the plans will be abolished. We have already had discussions as to how the new commissioning will be implemented. We will work together to ensure a smooth transition in the best interests of East Riding residents, for instance in social care. This is after all about the care of people and not organisations.

The new structures will allow for an even closer working relationship between health and councils within for example housing and environmental health and undoubtedly if we are positive about the changes they will bring many opportunities.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council and the PCT (NHS East Riding of Yorkshire) are determined that we will use this as an opportunity despite some potential diffi culties.

Obviously there will be a long way to go in a relatively short timescale, however residents can be assured we are already working on the changes and will collectively do everything to ensure that it is the public’s interests that are put fi rst.

Free compost for residentsHAVING read a number of lengthy advertisements for the council’s free provision of compost, I would like a reason why the residents of Cottingham and the surrounding villages are again being ignored.

It seems that on a number of occasions when compost is being given away at various locations, Cottingham is not included. Is there a reason for this omission? It is also noticeable that the residents of Beverley are favoured on each occasion.

Would someone please explain this? I’m sure that the decision cannot be on the grounds that the residents of Cottingham and the surrounding area do not recycle.George Staples, Cottingham

Dear Mr Staples,Far from it, the residents of Cottingham are keen recyclers. You raise a good point and we would wish to offer free compost in your area.

Before we select a venue for the giveaways, we must take account of its suitability.

The nine locations chosen this year allowed for traffic management, for example, in a controlled environment because of the large numbers that turn up.John Skidmore, head of streetscene services

Temporary road signs I WISH to comment on the use of temporary road signs during recent road works in the Roos area. In each case, the signs used were incorrect in fact and unhelpful, especially to drivers who do not know the area.

‘Road closed ahead’ logically suggests that the road you are on is closed. It will lead the stranger to begin to look for an alternative. This sign was used twice in our area in situations where the road was not closed at all.

Surely the best approach must be to sign the consequence of the closure and tell the driver where he/she can go, not so much emphasis on where they cannot. For example “Next left closed, take 3rd left”. You are obviously making some of the signs especially for the job so it should be possible and possibly even cheaper to use ones like “right turn closed”.

Name and address supplied

Dear Sir

THANK you for your recent comments regarding the temporary traffic signs at Roos.

The use of temporary traffic signs at roadworks, as with all highway signs throughout the country, is controlled by statutory instrument issued by the Department for Transport. The Traffic Signs

Regulations and General Directions 2002 prescribes all traffic signs which can be erected in terms of size, wording, shape, font, colour and use.

Unfortunately a sign saying ‘next left closed, take third left’ is not prescribed however the road name can be substituted for ‘road ahead’ as was the case at Hodgson Lane to which you refer.

Signing of roadworks is often difficult given the above constraints. The needs and knowledge of local drivers differ from those of strangers to the area, particularly where road names are concerned. Improvements can always be considered however and I will ensure that your comments are passed to those staff responsible for supervising the three projects that you have highlighted.

Carl Skelton, highway maintenance services group manager

Rural road grip holes JUST a thought about the grip holes along the rural roads that are dug/cleaned out every year by a JCB.

I observe two elements of this operation that have quite a significant implication on the council’s annual bill.

Firstly, I would guess that as much as, perhaps, 30 per cent of the holes that are dug are unnecessary and serve no useful purpose.

Just outside our farm near Bempton we have three slots within 50 feet, then further slots on a hillside. It occurs to us that no one will have assessed the usefulness of these slots for years and yet a great deal of money will be expended each year maintaining

them.The second observation is the damage that the

bucket of the JCB does to the edge of the road. In many places along our lanes the horrible bumps or holes that appear at the side of the narrow lanes are clearly attributable to the damage caused by a JCB bucket. This presumably carries an enormous cost in road repairs.

So, take the fact that a fair proportion of the work is unnecessary and then add in the fact that the work adds massive costs on to the road repair bill, then, I think this issue of grip holes might be an area where cost savings can be made.

John Foster, Bridlington

Dear Mr Foster

THANK you for your recent email regarding grip cleaning on East Riding roads.

The programme of grip cleansing is carried out primarily to ensure that water is removed from the carriageway and this is at defined locations. The operatives involved in this are aware that, on occasions, the vertical alignment of the road may change and cut additional grips as necessary and also ignore those of limited use. It is felt that this is the most appropriate way to deal with the type of minimal changes that occur rather than embark on a full review of every road.

The reason that grips are cut on hills is to allow water to run off the carriageway at a number of locations rather than it all ponding at the lowest spot. Ideally they are cut across verges to water courses but where this is not possible it is often necessary

to cut several, as you describe, in order to have the capacity to remove all the water and allow it to soak away.

With respect to the damage to the carriageway edge this should not be occurring as the operatives only have to excavate to the same level as the tarmac channel. I am aware that this has occurred in the past and operatives have been asked not to over excavate in order to avoid carriageway damage

Carl Skelton, highway maintenance services group manager

Brown bin collection JUST a query on why our brown bins are emptied on a Saturday which must cost more than a weekday as I assume the workers will be paid overtime, increasing the council tax expense.

Vivien Howson, North Cave

Dear Mrs Howson

THE collection to which you are referring was at a bank holiday. As your brown bin is normally emptied on a Friday, the collection fell to the following day.

It is more efficient and cost effective to catch up on the rounds on a Saturday.

To stick to your bin calendar and do it on the bank holiday would be significantly more expensive, while delaying the collection to the following weekdays disrupts even more rounds.

Bin collections are expensive and considerable planning goes into ensuring that every minute and mile is accounted for.

The collection service is run with almost military precision and credit for its success goes to our residents, like yourself, and the staff who carry out the rounds.

John Skidmore, head of streetscene services

A canvas for graffi tiHAVING noted the progress of the revamped Spa environs, namely the South Marine Drive retaining walls above Princess Mary Promenade, it seems to me that the aforementioned walls appear to be a blank canvas to the graffiti artist of the worst kind.

However, some graffiti work can be very artistic and pleasing to the eye if applied in the appropriate place and this work is not usually defaced.

Hence, is it possible that the council could invite an art competition, with pre-submitted designs, so that these rather drab looking walls can be painted with the winning submissions?

Vincent Clifford, Bridlington

Dear Mr Clifford

THANK you for your letter suggesting a graffiti competition for designs to be executed on the new concrete retaining walls forming part of the Spa Gardens project in Bridlington. However, we feel that this would not be an appropriate location for a genre of ‘urban art’.

Historically there has not been much of a problem with graffiti along the seafront compared with many other towns and we would not wish to tempt fate in this regard by promoting a project that could easily invite the sort of unwelcome addition that would detract from the original artwork.

However, that does not mean that we are unreceptive to opportunities for the arts in this scheme. The completed project will incorporate the work of Artists Kirsty Brooks, who has designed eight images for ceramic and glass screens in Pembroke Gardens, and Charles Quick whose ‘Colour Codes’ LED flags will illuminate the new accesses to Princess Mary Promenade from South Marine Drive. Along the Spa Slipway and promenade a new section of the Nautical Mile feature has been installed with text from the poem ‘Shine’ by writer Pat Gilbey. Pembroke Gardens and the other spaces around the Spa and foreshore have been designed to accommodate space for innovative entertainment and cultural activity to complement the quality indoor venue of The Spa Bridlington. This area will be in use from early August.

Ofsted success for adult education

T here’s no better time to go back into education or training in the East Riding

after two services were judged as ‘good’ following a recent Ofsted inspection.

Following a combined inspection in April, East Riding of Yorkshire Council Adult Education Service and East Riding Training Service were judged to have ‘good’ overall effectiveness, leadership and management and quality of provision. Teaching and learning was praised as having “enthusiastic and supportive tutors who share their passion for their subject and actively motivate learners to enjoy

learning.”Adult Education runs a variety of

courses during weekdays, evenings and weekends, from A-levels and GCSEs to vocational courses including creative arts, IT, literacy and numeracy.

East Riding Training Services is a training provider, run by the council, to help young people aged between 16 and 18 years to access education or training, including apprenticeships.

Inspectors judged equality and diversity in the two services to be “outstanding” and found that the teams prioritise “identifying and closing the achievement gap between genders, abilities and ethnic groups.”

Learners reported that they feel safe, practise safe working and gain many health benefi ts. Learners also said they liked the supportive and patient tutors, achieving qualifi cations that improve their employment potential, becoming more

personally confi dent and being able to attend courses that are near home.

Councillor Richard Harrap, portfolio holder for adult and carer services, said: “Adult education and the training of young people is a fantastic way to learn new skills or add to a person’s qualifi cations.

“In the current economic climate learning new skills or brushing up on existing skills can be a great help and the teams behind the courses should be very pleased with this Ofsted report.

“I hope it encourages more people to join courses this autumn, as there is something for everyone.”

COMMUNITIES throughout the East Riding feel safer than ever.

The latest fi gures show a 20 per cent drop in the number of calls received about anti-social behaviour throughout the East Riding.

Between December 2009 and May this year there were 1,529 fewer calls for police offi cers to deal with anti-social behaviour in the East Riding when compared with the same period last year.

Councillor Jane Evison, portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public protection at East Riding of Yorkshire

Council, said: “The council, the police and our partners have worked closely with the young people who are often accused of causing anti-social behaviour as well as with those whose lives have been affected.

“Organised activities like the popular evening football matches, and new facilities such as hang out zones give young people somewhere more productive and enjoyable to spend their free time – making life better both for them and the communities they live in.”

Between December 2008 and May 2009, offi cers in the East Riding were asked to

deal with 7,119 calls regarding anti-social behaviour. Between December 2009 and May 2010 offi cers dealt with 5,590 incidents.

Chief Inspector Richard Kirven said: “Anti-social behaviour doesn’t just make life unpleasant for people; it can be intimidating, scary or could damage your quality of life.

“Neighbourhood offi cers are committed to tackling this type of behaviour and encourage anyone who feels they are suffering from anti-social behaviour to contact the police immediately.”

TRAINING: Charles Trowbridge and Sam Fowler taking part in a Future 4 U course

Inspectors praise training and education programmes

Clair Raeper is starting a teaching assistant’s course in September after attending various adult education sessions in Goole.

After completing a family literacy course with her children Clair went on to take free levels one and two courses in literacy and numeracy and is soon to start her teaching assistant training.

She said: “We attended a family literacy course with the children and learned about what they would read in school, I then progressed to take free courses, provided by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council, in literacy and numeracy and have completed both levels one and two.

“Now I am starting a teaching assistant course and have been volunteering at Kingsway Primary School, where I will take up my fi rst placement in September.

“I think the adult education courses are fantastic and they have taught me new skills for the fi rst time since leaving school.”

Jackie Riley has taken several adult education courses at South Holderness Adult Education Centre and hopes her qualifi cations will lead to a new job.

She started doing computer for beginners courses and then progressed to Text and Word Processing before taking Computer Literacy and Information Technology (Clait) and European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL).

Jackie said: “I have enjoyed the courses and have kept going back, I am almost sad that I have gone as far as I can.

“The courses have really taken me out of myself and have improved my confi dence and given me the opportunity to meet new people.

“I have really got a lot out of the courses, before I couldn’t even turn on a computer and now I am fi nishing a level three course and I think these new qualifi cations will be benefi cial in my search for a new job.

“The tutors have been really helpful and friendly and I would certainly recommend these courses to people.”

Sam Fowler has recently completed the East Riding Training Services Future 4U programme in Bridlington and is now working in the care sector.

She said: “I joined the programme and have now completed my National Open College Network diploma and key skills.

“The course was fl exible and worked around my life and because of the smaller class sizes the teachers were able to provide more one-on-one tuition.

“The diploma has helped improve my confi dence, taught me new skills and helped me handle the process of being interviewed. I’ve now got a great job in care. If I can do it, you can too.”

Volunteering awards

E ast Riding News will be running a series of articles on the subject

of volunteering and the benefi ts that volunteering brings to both the volunteer and the community. This fi rst article focuses on volunteering and young people.

The recent Volunteering for Young People within East Riding (V-YPER) awards highlighted the importance of young people in voluntary roles and also the wealth

of opportunities available.The awards were presented by

the East Riding Voluntary Action Service (ERVAS) at the Lawns Centre, Cottingham.

Amongst those honoured was 16-year-old Bethany Young, who received special recognition for notching up an impressive 325 hours volunteering for Barnados.

Bethany helps plan activities for young people with disabilities for the Barnados All-Stars in Beverley, Hornsea, Bridlington and Pocklington as well as volunteering as an anti-bullying mentor and as a representative on her school’s council.

Bethany says she decided to volunteer to improve her CV as she plans to work with children and young people with disabilities

in the future and also to improve confi dence and learn new skills.

She said: “I like working with young people with disabilities and supporting and mentoring them through the activities. As well as having direct contact with them I also help with any problems they may have by speaking to a worker or their parents.

“Volunteering relieves boredom and gives me something worthwhile and fulfi lling to do with my spare time. It has also improved my confi dence and I have overcome my shyness to speak and interact with people and develop new skills.

“Through volunteering I have met new people and created a lot of friendships and because of the nature of the voluntary work

I have done, I have a greater knowledge and understanding of different disabilities and my confi dence has improved for dealing with other young people.”

Councillor Ros Jump, portfolio holder for community engagement, said: “Volunteering is a very rewarding experience that also provides much needed support to organisations that make a huge difference to people’s lives in the East Riding.

“It is good to see young people like Bethany not only giving her time to help other people, but also gaining such a positive experience from it.”

How volunteering has changed 16-year-old Bethany Young’s life

A RECENT report has highlighted the important role being played by East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s business centres in the local economy.

The report by the council’s planning and economic regeneration service showed that, up to March 2010, the centres have helped 114 new business start-ups, 209 existing businesses have used the service and 349 new jobs have been created.

Business advisers working with new start-ups from the centres have helped create an average of over 100 new businesses each year throughout the last ten years.

The centres are based in Beverley, Goole,

Bridlington, Driffi eld, Market Weighton and Brough.

Jackie Herd, a partner of Goole-based Fairview Duplication, is delighted by the service she received from the business centres.

She said: “At the beginning of the year we decided to capitalise on our location and available space and to apply to open a cattery but had no idea how to go about this.

“We searched the East Riding of Yorkshire Council website and contacted the inward investment offi ce.

“They were a great help and also informed us that we were eligible for a grant towards building

costs. The team helped enormously with all the relevant paper work, form fi lling and business plans as well as advising and supporting our planning application, which has been approved.

“Without the help of this department I would not have known that we were eligible for a grant and would certainly have been put off by the complexity of the form fi lling process.

“The business centres are an asset to the local business community and are ensuring they receive assistance to see out the recession and to help them grow and fl ourish in the future.”

MAKING A DIFFERENCE: V-YPER scheme co-ordinator Paul Hamlett presents Bethany Hughes with her award


New traffi c lights help junction turn corner

A set of traffi c lights being installed at a busy interchange

will make life easier for road-users.

Work is ongoing on the new signals at the Jock’s Lodge interchange where the A1079 Beverley Bypass meets the busy A164 between Beverley and Willerby.

Motorists will not be left waiting for non-existent traffi c to join the road as the new traffi c lights will know how many vehicles are waiting to enter the A164 from the A1079 thanks to an induction loop system.

The cost of almost £300,000 for the signals has been met in full by The Swift Group as part

of development work being done to improve access at its Cottingham site.

Councillor Matthew Grove, portfolio holder for highways and emergency planning at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “This project will make life easier for so many people who use this busy junction on a regular basis.

“For those coming off the A1079 in either direction this junction can not only be time-consuming and frustrating, but dangerous too.

“These new signals should make all the difference, cut down waiting time and make turning out at this junction much safer.

“While I apologise for the short-term delays which are inevitable while this work is carried out, they are far outweighed by the benefi ts that this change will bring at this junction in the future.”

Work on the 10 week project started on 12 July.

While the signals are installed temporary traffi c management is being restricted to outside peak hours to limit disruption.

The contractor appointed to carry out the works is PBS Construction (NE) Ltd and the construction programme has been co-ordinated with other proposed works to minimise impact on the road network.

THE council is reviewing all its publications to improve their effectiveness and to reduce costs.

Council leader, Councillor Stephen Parnaby OBE, said: “We are working hard to plan ahead for the budget reductions expected over the next three or four years which could be in the order of £30 million including in-year base budget savings of £7.5m.

“The review of council publications will go some way to help us to reduce costs and to

make them more effective.”As a council with a population

of 330,000 and covering nearly 1,000 square miles we need to engage effectively with local communities, our own workforce and partners. Effective communication is essential to this.”

Already some key council publications such as the Business Plan and Sustainable Community Plan are no longer printed but made available on the council’s

website – achieving savings of £10,000 per year.

A review is taking place of the format, style and frequency of East Riding News taking into account feedback from the Citizens Panel which shows that it has a high readership. Fifty two per cent of residents surveyed say they always read the East Riding News, 20 per cent read it regularly and 24 per cent read it sometimes. The new look East Riding News is to be launched later this year.

PUPILS across the East Riding have shown improved performance at the end of primary education in English and maths.

This year, many schools decided not to undertake the year six SAT tests, and because of this all schools in the East Riding underwent a rigorous process of teacher assessment.

These assessments show, that the percentage of year six pupils achieving both English and maths at level four or above this year is 78 per cent, a rise of 2.8 per cent since last year.

In English, 83 per cent of pupils achieved level four or above and 32.8 per cent, achieved level fi ve.

In maths, 82.2 per cent of pupils achieved level four or above and 33.3 per cent achieved level fi ve.

Councillor Penny Peacock, portfolio holder for children, young people and schools, said: “From 2006 to 2010 there has been a steady increase in the number of pupils reaching expected levels in the East Riding. This means that children are leaving primary schools with the numeracy and literacy skills to access and enjoy their secondary curriculum.

“I would like to congratulate all the children and wish them all well as they transfer to secondary school in September.”

Mike Furbank, head of improvement and learning, said: “Despite the issues related to the tests, 2010 has been a good year for the children in the East Riding who are transferring to secondary schools.”

S utton Bridge reopened earlier than planned after work to repair the

grade two star listed structure fi nished ahead of schedule.

The bridge, at Sutton upon Derwent, was damaged when a large vehicle crashed into it in January.

A six week repair programme was scheduled for the summer to allow contractors to make best use of natural light as they worked round the clock to repair the bridge as quickly as possible to minimise the effect of the closure on the local community.

Councillor Matthew Grove, portfolio holder for highways and emergency planning at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “While the council had no choice but to close the bridge to carry out repairs after the crash in January, we also had a great deal of sympathy for members of the local community who were affected by the bridge being closed.

“We have worked closely

with the local parish councils throughout this process and arranged the work to keep the closure as brief as possible. I am sure everyone will be pleased to see that the bridge is now open again.”

During the work specifi c periods of time were set aside for pedestrians to freely cross the bridge on foot and during the middle of the day a free shuttle bus was provided between the two village halls.

Arrangements were also put in place to allow a number of charity cycle rides and races over the bridge to go ahead as long as the council had advanced warning of their arrival.

Residents urged ‘please, no waste food in brown bins’

Caddies stacked ready for roll out

A s caddies are being stacked ready for delivery later this year

for the new food waste and cardboard service, the council has issued a ‘don’t jump the gun’ message.

Councillor Symon Fraser, portfolio holder for environment and planning, said: “Since we announced this new collection service, we have had a huge and enthusiastic response. It is exactly what residents have been telling us they want.

“I know residents are keen, but we are urging them not to jump the gun and start putt ing food waste and cardboard in the brown bins until they receive a caddy.

“When the service starts later this year, the waste from the brown bins will be sent to a special facility that heats it to a high degree, killing harmful bacteria.”

Food waste and cardboard will be collected from the brown bins in a phased roll out across the East Riding.

The delivery of a food caddy, liners and an information pack will be the signal to households that they can start putt ing food waste and cardboard into the brown bins. Until then, the message is ‘please, don’t’.

Any food waste put into the brown bin before then is classed as contamination and the contents of the bin and the entire load on the collection vehicle have to be sent to landfi ll, with all the associated costs.

Councillor Fraser added: “Up to a third of the waste in an average green household bin is food which

NEW banks are being phased in from this month at the East Riding’s 127 recycling bring sites.

The sites are on car parks and at supermarkets, such as Goole leisure centre, Tesco in Withernsea and Morrisons in Beverley, so that residents can shop and recycle in one trip.

The new banks, replacing the existing ones, are for plastic bottles (with the numbers 1, 2 or 3 in a triangle on the bottom)

and tin and aluminium cans.The glass banks and

those for paper, including magazines, brochures and directories, are not affected.

The council is also restating its appeal to hear from any residents who can suggest additional sites for recycling banks. Before any site is confi rmed, it is investigated and the views of local people taken into account. The number to call is (01482) 395586.

THE council is giving free compost to the residents of Driffi eld, Beverley and Market Weighton.

The compost giveaways will start at 4pm on Tuesday, 21 September at Driffi eld showground; Wednesday, 22 September, Grovehill car park, Beck View Road, Beverley; and Thursday, 23 September, the market car park, York Road, Market Weighton.

The giveaways are the last three of nine scheduled across the East Riding, including in Bridlington and Hornsea.

Up to 100 tonnes of compost will have been given away during the nine events by the end of September. This represents nearly 5,000 reusable green garden sacks. The compost is bagged up by council staff, who also lift it into the car boots.

RESULTS of a survey of the waste in the East Riding’s green bins show that residents are trying to reduce what they throw away.

The survey, by East Riding of Yorkshire Council, is the latest in a series of nine through to 2012, monitoring what is put in the bins and sent to landfi ll.

While the amount of waste in the bins was down, nearly a third of it was food, much of it still in unopened packaging.

Councillor Symon Fraser, portfolio holder for environment and planning, said: “These surveys are helping us determine which recycling and composting facilities and services will best help our residents.

“As a result of the earlier surveys, we delivered the brown bins for garden waste and last month announced the future collection of food waste and cardboard.

“The brown bins are a shining example of success, now taking more than 80 per cent of garden waste

out of the green bins and, therefore, out of landfi ll. Instead, it is being recycled as compost.”

A further 7.5 per cent of the waste in the green bins was paper, cans and plastic bottles which should have been put in the blue bins for recycling. This compares with 10 per cent in the green bin survey in November 2007.

Councillor Fraser added: “It is very good news that East Riding households are sending less waste to landfi ll.”

Two signifi cant areas of waste are baby nappies and cardboard. Disposable nappies made up over four per cent of the waste in the green bins that were surveyed.

Cardboard was fi ve per cent of the green bin waste, but this is expected to decline after the new collection service is rolled out across the East Riding towards the end of the year.

The surveys involve a selection of bins which are randomly chosen and the waste sorted by hand, weighed and analysed.

goes to landfi ll. From every angle, including environmental and economic, it makes sense to compost it.”

The dates of the phased roll out will be announced in a future issue of East Riding News.


Helping walkers enjoy the local countryside

W atton has become a walker’s paradise following the work

of East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s Countryside Access Team and Watton Parish Council.

Public paths have been improved for walkers, summer cutting work has been carried out by local contractors and most routes have had all their stiles removed and replaced them

with self-closing kissing gates.New signs and bridges have also

been erected and the accessibility of local paths has been improved.

Councillor Jane Evison, portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public protection, said: “This work in Watton will make local paths even more attractive for all walkers. Walking is not only a fantastic way to enjoy the natural beauty of the East Riding, but also one of the best forms of exercise a person can enjoy. Work to make these pathways more accessible will also mean that those who were previously unable to enjoy these walks will now be able to try them.”

The Local Paths Partnership

scheme allocated grants to the parish council for them to spend on looking after, and improving the network, with support from the countryside access team.

Parish councillor John Hague, who co-ordinates the scheme in Watton, said: “When we fi rst started we concentrated on one or two paths, and each year we have managed to improve the network. It’s taken several years but the paths have never been so well cared for and well used, people keep to the paths, and confl icts are kept to a minimum.”

The Watton network and all other rights of way can be seen at www.walkingtheriding.co.uk

PLANS for the new East Riding Youth Dance season are underway and organisers are now offering more young people the chance to become members of the project for the autumn term starting in September 2010.

Co-ordinated by East Riding of Yorkshire Council, the project includes weekly sessions with professional artists working towards performances each term. East Riding Youth Dance also gives young people the opportunity to learn from the country’s leading professional dance companies in workshops and live performances.

June Mitchell, community arts offi cer and co-ordinator of East Riding Youth Dance, said: “Our young people have a lot of dance talent and we have harnessed it to give everyone a polished skill and creativity, which can be valuable in their present and future lives.”

The youth dance groups are based in six areas of the East Riding (Beverley, Bridlington, Hessle, Hornsea, Goole and Pocklington) with sessions for 11-13 year olds and 14-18 year olds. Weekly sessions will be taking place starting from Tuesday, 20 September.

Auditions for the county company are to be held on Sunday, 5 September 2010 at Woldgate College, Kilnwick Road, Pocklington. For more information ring (01482) 392653.

A TELEPHONE scam which involves the fraudsters telephoning victims to say they are owed a council tax refund is operating in the East Riding.

The criminals responsible have been promising rebates from £750 to £3,000.

They ask for certain personal bank account or credit card details claiming that these are needed for them to credit victims with their refund and claim their management fee.

Mrs Janet Theaker, a pensioner from Goole, who was targeted by the

scam said: “I was just lucky that the bank cancelled my cards. Anybody, whether elderly or young, should be very careful with telephone calls like this.”

Anyone who is due a refund on their council tax bill will be well aware of it as they will have been in contact with either the council or district valuers.

Unexpected calls concerning council tax are almost certain to come from someone who wishes to commit fraud.

Councillor Jane Evison, the council’s

portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public protection, said: “Members of the public must not give out any bank account or credit card details to any unsolicited telephone calls which are asking for people’s credit card or bank account number. The only reason they are asking you for this is to enable them to take your own money.”

Any East Riding residents who would like to report this scam or any other consumer matter can contact Consumer Direct on 08454 04 05 06 in the fi rst instance.

New ways to help touristsH ornsea and

Withernsea tourist information

centres are set for a bright future after teaming up and moving to new premises in a partnership agreement between Visit Hull & East Yorkshire (VHEY), who provide the service, the privately-run boards of trustees, and East Riding of Yorkshire Council.

Hornsea TIC has moved to Hornsea Museum and Withernsea TIC now operates from the premises of Withernsea

Lighthouse. Both are excellent, accessible locations.

The new-look tourist information centres are now integrated with their new hosts, which are both major local tourist attractions in their own right, and offer a bespoke tourist information desk staffed at busy periods during the summer such as bank holiday weekends, school holidays and when key events are taking place in the town.

As an additional and alternative service, the electronic kiosks that were trialled last summer in the towns’ leisure centres are continuing with some adaptations.

Councillor Jane Evison, the council’s portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and

public protection, said: “It is very positive to be working in partnership with Hornsea Museum and Withernsea Lighthouse, which are both important visitor attractions. The development is good news for tourism offering an improved service for visitors which will help raise the profi le of the resorts.”

Dr Brian Wells, chairman of the board of trustees for Withernsea Lighhouse, added: “Withernsea Lighthouse trustees are delighted to accommodate the tourist information centre in Withernsea’s most prominent landmark. We are sure this arrangement will be of benefi t to the lighthouse, the tourist information centre, the people of Withernsea and its visitors.”

FOR the seventh year in a row Driffi eld’s Northend Park and Remembrance Gardens has won a prestigious Green Flag Award.

The award is given to the country’s best green spaces.

Parks are only given the award if they are judged as being well used, well managed and environmentally sound.

Northend Park stood out after impressing the judges with its excellent use of green space,

well-maintained facilities and high standard of safety and security.

The award comes following another year’s hard work by council staff, supported by the Friends of Northend Park.

Councillor Jane Evison, portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public protection at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “I am delighted to hear that Northend

Park has been given a Green Flag award again. The park is a well-kept green space in the East Riding that residents and visitors enjoy.”

This year has seen the highest number of awards handed out – a record 1,200 Green Flags and Green Pennants across the UK compared to 1,013 in 2009. Green Pennants are awarded to parks or green spaces managed by a community or voluntary group.

Gina Siddall, Future 4U instructor, said: “This is an absolutely brilliant programme for helping young people achieve their potential. It has been hard work but it’s all worth it when I see the young people moving forwards onto things like college courses and into employment.”

If you would like to sign up for the next Future 4U programme, starting in August, please contact Mick Thompson, if you live in the Goole area, on (01405) 768934 or Pat Elstob, if you live in the Bridlington area, on (01262) 674968.

Did you know…96% of learners during 2008-09 felt their course met their expectations. This figure is taken from the

returned Learner Satisfaction Forms issued to every learner who completes a course with the service.

During 2008-09 1,043 course titles ran in 167 venues across the East Riding and 6,894 learners enrolled on

our courses, a 9% increase on the previous year’s figure.

1,931 learners achieved qualifications through the Adult Education Service in 2008/09. Ofsted said “Success

rates for courses leading to qualifications are good”, standing at 8% above the national average, with

“retention well above 90% in almost every subject.”

In 2010 the Adult Education Service went through an Ofsted Inspection where our overall effectiveness was

judged to be good, with equality and diversity as outstanding. The Ofsted report states “The approach is

extremely well developed and places a particularly high emphasis on identifying and closing the performance

gap between genders, abilities and ethnic groups.”

Ofsted also said our “Enthusiastic and supportive tutors share their passion for their subject and motivate

learners” and that our “Learning resources are good and some are excellent.”

East Riding of Yorkshire Council

The Council was recently awarded the maximum four stars by the Audit Commission in the

Comprehensive Performance Assessment and judged to be ‘improving well’.

T he council has recently launched a new initiative aimed at

raising the standard of private rented accommodation by recognising good practice and rewarding responsible letting by landlords.

‘Accredited Homes’ and ‘Accredited Homes of Excellence’ have been developed in partnership with private landlords and letting agents across the East Riding.

Landlords who successfully apply for accreditation will receive a package of benefi ts, including access to a free advice hotline and a ‘shop and save’ scheme that entitles them to discounts from certain retailers, a membership certifi cate, and the right to use the accreditation scheme logo on their letterheads and publicity material.

The scheme will also benefi t tenants by giving them peace of mind about the standard of accommodation they are renting.

To become an ‘Accredited Home,’ a property must meet a basic level of repair, maintenance

and management, while ‘Accredited Homes of Excellence’ are expected to provide a much higher standard of accommodation, with better fi ttings and fi xtures. Membership is free, optional and lasts for fi ve years.

Sarah Horner, landlord liaison offi cer, said: “We’ve been working closely with landlords and letting agents to develop the accreditation

schemes as part of our commitment to raising the standard of private sector housing.”

The ‘Accredited Homes’ and ‘Accredited Homes of Excellence’ schemes were launched at two recent events held in Goole and Bridlington. Any landlords who were unable to attend, but would like to fi nd out more, can call (01482) 396301 or email private.

[email protected] Jayne Knaggs who

has recently received accreditation on several of her properties said: “The schemes will ensure that prospective tenants have certifi ed confi rmation of a safe and sound property in addition to the commitment of a good standard of service from a conscientious landlord.”

Helping landlords to let better quality accommodation

FORTY-fi ve young people, teachers and businesses from across the Humber region received awards for work linking education and business at the annual Humber Education Business Partnership (EBP) awards recently.

From hundreds of nominations, the judges selected the 45 winners to receive awards for work experience, professional development, young apprenticeships, diplomas, Aimhigher and enterprise.

Sandra Cooper, general manager of the Humber EBP, said: “These awards recognise the achievements of businesses, teachers and learners that have made a real contribution in forging links between education and the world of work.

“Ultimately, this is helping young people, through practical experience and teaching, to have a greater understanding of what to expect when they themselves eventually leave education. We are seeing so many examples of young people across the Humber sub-region changing their approach to learning that it makes all the hard work worthwhile.”

W orking within the Early Years Foundation Stage

and Playwork age range is an enjoyable, rewarding career.

The development that takes place during these formative years is the foundation for children to develop their future potential. Registered childcare plays an extremely important role by offering children excellent quality childcare, development and learning opportunities through play.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council aims to raise the quality of childcare and improve young children’s early year’s experiences through raising the skill levels of new and existing staff.

Improving the level of qualifi cations held in childcare, learning and development and playwork will not only raise the professional status and the

profi le of the childcare sector, it will enable all those working with children to understand the importance of their work and how this impacts on the children they work with.

This fi nancial year the council is funding 90 per cent of qualifi cations and is currently funding 18 childcare practitioners working towards their level two qualifi cation and 30 practitioners working towards their level three qualifi cations in childcare, learning and development or playwork.

A further 17 childcare practitioners are accessing funding for a level four or above qualifi cation and 26 childcare practitioners are working towards their foundation degree.

Early Years Professional Status (EYPS)THIS status is achieved through completing training equivalent to degree level (level six) and

then completing a further 39 standards through the Early Years Professional Status (EYPS) pathways.

On completion the childcare practitioner has the skills and knowledge to lead the way forward in all areas of learning and development to enhance children’s experiences within the early years.

There is now an EYPS network within the East Riding and all practitioners on achieving this status are welcome to join. The network offers support from colleagues, continual professional development opportunities and discussion forums on a regular basis. There are 11 practitioners working at this level in various settings across the East Riding with a further 12 currently working towards EYPS.

For more information on qualifi cations, training or EYPS ring the workforce development team on (01482) 679921.

July competitions winners

W hile the fantastic Spring/

Summer season may be over, it is never too early to start booking for the Hull New Theatre and Hull City Hall Autumn/Winter season, which kicks off in September.

The new season is packed with live music, musical theatre, comedy and children’s shows guaranteed to entertain the whole family.

Fans of “America’s Got Talent” will want to book early for The Texas Tenors (8 September) when they arrive at Hull New Theatre, as part of their fi rst UK tour. Audiences will not want to miss an evening with these three classically trained tenors performing some of the most romantic songs of the last century.

JC, Marcus and John will be bringing their unique blend of gospel, country, classical and Broadway music to the stage with breathtaking vocals, humour and a hint of cowboy charm. Together they create smooth harmonies and a rich, soulful sound as they

perform a variety of music, from well loved arias, to show songs.

Also coming to Hull New Theatre this September is The Naked Truth (13 -18 September). This laugh out loud comedy tells the hilarious tale of fi ve very different women as they struggle to conquer pole dancing for an event to raise awareness and money for a breast cancer charity. As their stories unfold and unravel, they share laughter and tears in this hilarious, sad and ultimately moving play.

Described by the Yorkshire Post as “better than marriage guidance”, The Naked Truth stars Maureen Nolan, Claire King (Emmerdale and Bad Girls), Leanne Jones (star of Hairspray in the West End), Michelle Heaton (Liberty X) and Julie Buckfi eld (Hollyoaks). It is a show for women, about women, that men absolutely must see.

Topping off the September line-up at Hull New Theatre is Dreamboats and Petticoats (20 – 25 September). Inspired by the smash hit million selling albums Dreamboats and Petticoats one, two and

three, this West End sell-out sensation features some of the greatest hit songs of the Rock ‘n’ Roll era.

Written by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran, the team behind “Goodnight Sweetheart”, “Birds of a Feather”, “The New Statesmen” and “Shine On Harvey Moon”, this feel-good musical production will take audiences on a musical journey back to a time when each passing week brought another classic track.

September will also see East Park host a weekend double bill of family entertainment, with Hull’s Big Party in the Park (Saturday 4 September) and Fireman Sam (Sunday 5 September).

Over the years each of James Herriot’s titles have sold more than one million copies in paperback, a fi gure only equalled at the time by Ian Fleming, the author of the James Bond series.The other achievement was to make the town of Thirsk, in which James Herriot remained in veterinary practice for over fi fty years, a tourist attraction.

THE COLLABORATORby Gerald Seymour (Hodder) This story is about the Mafi a in Naples where for a generation the Borelli family have had a stranglehold. Eddie Deacon doesn’t know that his girlfriend, Immacolata Borelli, who is a student in London, is the daughter of a ruthless gangster. After learning about the death of a friend in Naples, she realises that her family was responsible and returns for the funeral. She decides to blow the whistle on her family, knowing that her life will never be the same again, but the Borellis will

not lose their empire without a vicious fi ght and will use anything and anyone to prevent her from giving evidence against them, including Eddie.

OXFORD DICTIONARY OF ENGLISH IDIOMS by John Ayto (Oxford University Press) This fascinating book collects together more that 6,000 idioms including hundreds of illustrative quotations, both modern and historical, and shows readers how phrases are used. This would be an invaluable resource for students and indeed anyone fascinated by the English language.

TRUTH TO TELL by Mavis Cheek (Hutchinson) Now in her sixties, Mavis Cheek specialises in sharply comic novels, satirising the contemporary social scene.They are persistently witty and her latest is a good example. Nina Porter seems to have it all but a marital row over truthfulness sets her thinking. Should she try to live her life without the little white lies that support us all?When a glamorous few days of research in Venice are on offer she fi nds herself entangled in a web of deception. It starts to look as though honesty might not always be the best policy.

This council is pursuing

equality of opportunity in

employment. The council is

committed to safeguarding

and promoting the

welfare of children and

vulnerable adults

MATTHEW works as an apprentice within the inward investment service of the council. He has completed his level two apprenticeship and is now nearing the completion of his level three.The team work to encourage new businesses to invest in the area, and help support existing businesses to stay and expand. Matthew’s role requires him to maintain the team’s client management and property databases, monitor business developments in the news and develop information packs for clients.Matthew joined the council after completing his A-levels at Longcroft School in Beverley. He decided to undertake an apprenticeship in business administration to enhance his qualifi cations while gaining valuable

work experience in an organisation that has lots of different job roles for future career progression. The business administration apprenticeship is a work based qualifi cation that is nationally recognised. Once qualifi ed, the transferable skills developed and demonstrated throughout the training provide an excellent platform for further career development.Matthew said: “I enjoy my job because I feel part of a team that makes a real difference. “I enjoy meeting new people and the job provides an opportunity to do work based learning within the job role. “I would recommend an apprenticeship to others because of the opportunities it gives you.”

References are just one of the pre-employment checks carried out by

the council to ensure the right person has been selected to fi ll a vacancy.

All new starters with the council require two employment references, and if there are delays obtaining a reply it will delay the start date.

To help with pre-employment checks:• All applicants should ensure

they provide two referees when they apply. When people are interviewed the references will be requested in advance to speed up any appointment (applicants can opt for references to only be taken up after interview).

• Applicants should always give current or latest employer as a

referee.• Anyone who has worked

for their current employer for a long time, can provide two referees from the same organisation.

• Applicants who have never had an employer, could consider giving a referee from any voluntary work they have carried out.

• School or college students or those who have just left, can give their head teacher or college tutor as a referee.

• Ensure all referees are aware they have been given as referees.

• Check that referees will not be away during the recruitment period eg it is hard to get a response from schools or colleges during the summer break, so a home or email address for referees at such times will speed things up.

THREE local artists are exhibiting paintings and ceramics inspired by the East Riding’s landscape.

The exhibition: A Breath of Fresh Air - Paintings and Ceramics Inspired by the East Yorkshire Landscape, opens on 28 August until 16 October in the art gallery, based in the Treasure House, Champney Road, Beverley.

The exhibition brings together the work of painters Kate Kennedy and Malcolm Ludvigsen, and Jill Ford who works in ceramics.

Sally Hayes, gallery curator, said: ”Kate and Malcolm describe themselves as ‘plein-air’painters, a term fi rst used by the French Impressionists

and comes from en plein air meaning ‘in the open air’, hence the name of the exhibition.

“Jill produces porcelain vases and bowls thrown on the wheel, slip cast and porcelain candlesticks and porcelain wall pieces, all inspired by scenes around us.”

Admission to the exhibition is free. For more information about the exhibition and other events, call the gallery on (01482) 392780.

The gallery is hosting two events to complement the exhibition. At the fi rst, on Saturday, 2 October from 10.30am to 3pm, Malcolm and Kate will be in the gallery to talk about their work.

The second is a still life drop-in session on Saturday, 9 October from 10am to 3pm.

Visitors will be able to try their hand at sketching an

elaborate display of exotic fruit. No experience is necessary, the materials will be provided and a tutor will be on hand for ideas and inspiration.

Artists celebrate local landscapes and coast

VIKING FM and The Spa Bridlington have teamed up once again to host Brid Bash 2010.

Some of the biggest names in music will take to the stage on Thursday, 12 August including X Factor fi nalist Olly Murs and British rapper Tinchy Stryder.

Other confi rmed artists are Beverley Knight, Professor Green, Lee Ryan, Gabriella Cilmi, The Hoosiers and Dane Bowers.

Councillor Jane Evison, cabinet portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public protection for East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said:

“This is a fantastic line up for Bridlington, which is generating a huge amount of excitement amongst music fans throughout the East Riding.

“This is testament to the quality of the refurbishment of the Spa and the commitment of the authority’s tourism department and Viking FM to bringing A-list performers to the region.”

Brid Bash takes off

First aid

C yclists are now able to experience Big Skies Bike Rides in the

Yorkshire Wolds thanks to the launch of new cycle trails by Visit Hull and East Yorkshire (VHEY), the offi cial tourism body for the region.

The trails take visitors on circular routes in the Wolds encompassing chalk streams, picture-postcard villages, medieval churches, broad valleys and stunning views.

Details of routes are included in the Big Skies Bike Rides guide, which is available free from tourist information centres across Hull and East Yorkshire and online at www.realyorkshire.co.uk

The guides contain detailed route maps, information and advice for each of the trails.

Janet Reuben, chief executive of Visit Hull and East Yorkshire (VHEY), said: “The cycle routes provide a great way for people to explore the Yorkshire Wolds. This region’s wealth of beautiful countryside and tranquil villages

make it an ideal location for cyclists. The routes are family-friendly and perfect for a gentle bike ride. The launch marked the completion of an extensive project to create the ideal visitor attraction.”

The Big Skies Bike Rides was inspired by the work of internationally renowned artist, David Hockney who has created

many of his masterpieces whilst in the Yorkshire Wolds and refers to it as ‘big sky’.

In addition, VHEY have worked on two other exciting cycle projects which will be completed later this year: the East Yorkshire section of a new national trail, the Way of the Roses, a coast-to-coast cycle ride from Morecambe to Bridlington which is being created by Sustrans, the UK’s leading sustainable transport charity; and a 145-mile Yorkshire Wolds Cycle Route circumnavigating the whole of the Wolds which can be completed during a leisurely three-day trip.

The Big Skies Bike Rides project is part of VHEY’s Yorkshire Wolds development programme to attract even more visitors to the Yorkshire Wolds which also includes the Walk the Wolds pack and the installation of visitor information boards across the region.
