New ‘destination’ playpark one of best in East Riding

EXCITING NEW PLAYPARK OPENSA new playpark has

recently opened at Haltemprice Leisure

Centre in Springfi eld Way, Anlaby.

Fiona Thompson, Pathfi nder manager, said: “This exciting new ‘destination’ playpark is one of the

best facilities in the East Riding and gives children and young people the opportunity to climb, clamber, swing, balance, dig and burn off lots of energy, making use of innovative equipment together with some old favourites like the sandpit and swings.”

Local children and adults have helped design the play area, which adds to the range of activities available at the Haltemprice Leisure Centre site.

The new park has been funded

by £200,000 from the Department for Children, Schools and Families as part of the East Riding’s Play Pathfi nder project, which aims to encourage more children to play out, have adventures, make friends and get fi t.

Big Lottery funding is also providing natural play features at the park, through the work of Yorkshire Wildlife Trust.

Councillor Jane Evison, portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public

protection, said: “The new playpark is a state-of-the-art facility and part of a network of quality play spaces that the council is developing with the aid of grant funding under the Play Pathfi nder programme.

“As well as providing them with lots of fun, playing outdoors in well equipped parks like the one at Haltemprice Leisure Centre helps children develop social skills and encourages them to lead healthy and active lives.”

EY Events celebrate record breaking year

E Y Events is celebrating holding a record number of events in 2009 despite

the economic downturn.

Estimated fi gures show that since March more than £4.5 million has been generated as a direct result of the events that have taken place.

This amount is a conservative fi gure based on average national daily visitor expenditure.

These events have attracted visitors to the East Riding, creating over 40,000 bed nights and generating income and investment for local businesses.

Councillor Andy Burton, portfolio holder for community engagement and local economic development, said: “East Yorkshire Events has managed to attract an impressive number of prestigious events to the East Riding, which have had a direct benefi t to the area by raising the profi le of the East Riding and attracting visitors. This brings a much needed boost to the local economy.”

Included in this record year have been a number of high profi le specialist events such as the European Open Beach Championships, World and Masters Blackball Championships, WINMAU World Masters Darts and the National Men’s Elite Cycle Circuit Championships.

Paul Roggeman, conference and events manager, said: “This year has been extremely challenging for us but by streamlining and modernising our operations we have gone from strength to strength.

“We have focused on providing

a fi rst class service for our conferences and events and believe that by delivering such a varied range of national and international events we have fi rmly placed the East Riding on the map.”

The fi nal event of the year will see hundreds of pigeon fanatics fl ocking to The Spa Bridlington on 7 and 8 November for the East Coast National Pigeon Show.

The event, now in its second year, hopes to eventually emulate the show held in Blackpool, which attracts 20,000 people.

For more information, visit www.eyevents.co.uk

THE council’s business centres are marking Global Entrepreneurship Week by hosting an ‘access to enterprise day’ on Wednesday, 18 November.

Councillor Andy Burton, cabinet portfolio holder for community engagement and local economic development, said: “The event is aimed at all those who have an interest in entrepreneurship, are currently starting or planning to start their own business, or simply have an idea and would like some professional advice. In these current challenging economic times it is really important that fl edgling businesses have the opportunity to access the business centre start up facilities that East Riding

of Yorkshire Council currently provide.”

East Riding of Yorkshire Council runs a network of business centres across the region which currently provides accommodation and support to around 100 small and medium-sized companies. The council has invited those tenant businesses to make themselves available to offer an insight to the public about what it is really like to run your own company.

Using the latest in video-conference technology, the council is able to link its six sites at Bridlington, Beverley, Brough, Driffi eld, Goole and Market Weighton, providing a communication platform for

participants to speak to the most relevant company representatives. Fully qualifi ed business advisers will also be on hand throughout the event to offer support and advice either in person or via video link-up.

The event will run between 10am and 3pm on Wednesday, 18 November. If you would like to discuss this event or register to attend, please contact Adrian Shaw, business services manager, on (01482) 391710 or your local business centre (details on the council website: www.eastriding.gov.uk and go to Business and economy, then Business, investment and property).

Cycling hat trick for BeverleyTHE medieval market town of Beverley has been chosen by British Cycling to host the blue riband event of UK town centre racing in 2010.

The town will make cycling history by hosting the National Elite Circuit Race Championships for the third consecutive year.

The championship will see 70 top racers tackle a town centre circuit on the evening of Friday, 16 July, and is the highlight of a three-day free cycling spectacular.

On Saturday, 17 July, up to 500 hundred cyclists will be able to take part in sportive rides of 60,100 or 160 km as part of The Big G (Grimpeurs Des Wolds) Cyclo-Sportive.

The weekend will reach its fi nale on Sunday, 18 July, when the 140 best racers in the UK will take part in the 98 mile East Yorkshire Classic event around the Yorkshire Wolds, as part of the British Cycling premier calendar national race series.

Paul Roggeman, conference and events manager for EY Events, said: “It is remarkable to win the chance to host the Championships for a third consecutive year. Credit must be given to the working partnership between Hull Thursday Road Club and East Riding of Yorkshire Council who have greatly impressed British Cycling.”

Race media chief Michael Boyle said: “To win the right to hold this event against fi erce competition from across the UK is a remarkable achievement. With over 1,000 entries expected, the weekend is worth more than £250,000 to the local tourism economy.”

People who would like to fi nd out more about taking part in The Big G can visit www.eastyorkshireclassic.co.uk/cyclosportive where details for this year’s event will be available soon.

BINS: Kerbside collection from the blue recycling bins

LEADING LINESLEADER OF THE COUNCIL COUNCILLOR STEPHEN PARNABY OBE

Setting the council’s budget and council tax for 2010/11 may seem a long way off, but the process has already started across all local authorities and the East Riding is no exception. Councillors will make the fi nal decision next February on the level of council tax from April 2010.

The huge complexities of council funding, which in our case involves several millions of pounds, take some understanding and councillors will be given every assistance in arriving at their decision. We are responsible for over 500 services each with their own demands and expectations. For example, we spend huge amounts of money on services for children and young people, adults, and, of course, in maintaining the highway network. There are also ever increasing waste issues involving landfi ll taxes, our commitment to maintain a weekly refuse collection whilst increasing the frequency of the blue bin collection and the introduction of a brown bin for garden waste, the list is endless.

Around three-fi fths of our funding comes direct from government, with only one-fi fth of our expenditure raised from council tax. The issues are huge with greater demands for services, especially those needed by a growing elderly population. This is coupled with increasing legislation, which rarely comes with the required funding, and of course, a real expectation for quality services by our residents. All of this is included in the council’s ‘revenue’ budget and then there is the ‘capital’ budget, which deals with new buildings, major highway schemes, large alterations, etc.

As a council we consult on a regular basis and work with individuals, other public and private organisations and agencies to agree our priorities. As part of this, we also hold annual budget conferences each November. These have proved very successful in the past and we expect that this year’s conferences will be the same because they are not intimidating or designed to confuse, but have previously shaped the way the council spends its money and have given us a real insight to issues that are important to you.

This year’s conferences were advertised in the September edition of East Riding News with details of how to book your place and I look forward to seeing all those that attend and take part in what can only be described as a ‘snapshot’ of the budget process but nevertheless a very informative and useful one.

Editors note: There are still places available at the budget conferences in Goole and Bridlington - see page 12 for details.

Impressed by recyclingNOW that we are recycling so much of our household waste I feel as if I am playing a game of draughts with my wheelie bins and I am running out of space to put them all.

When we got a brown bin I swapped the two small blue ones I had for one large one.

I have a black box which I put glass bottles and jars in.

I also have a bag for cardboard. I take all these to the recycling centre at Preston.

The green bin only goes out about once a month because with all the recycling I do there isn’t much to put in it.

I rang the call centre to ask if it would be possible to have a smaller green bin.

I was told that at the moment it was not an option.

I am sure that there must be a lot of other residents who would also like to have a smaller green bin.

I look forward to hearing your comments on this matter.Diane Marles-Wright, Thorngumbald

Dear Ms Marles-WrightFirst, may I compliment you on the many ways in which you are recycling and composting. I am continually impressed at the efforts made by East Riding residents to recycle their waste.

The bins and the collection services are extremely costly for the council but are a necessity to keep waste out of landfill and increase recycling. Currently it is not possible to provide smaller green bins.

The issue you raise is an important one and we are constantly looking at how best to use the council’s three bins – the blue, brown and green – to enable residents to recycle an increasing number of materials.

Last year we sought the views of residents in a large consultation to ensure our bin collection services matched their requirements – hence the roll out of the highly successful brown bins for garden waste. We plan to undertake a further consultation next year, again to ensure we are meeting our residents’ expectations. John Skidmore, head of streetscene services

Works on A165 Whilst drivers always moan and groan at the sight of road works (myself included) it has to be said what an excellent job has been carried out recently by the council in the re-surfacing of the main road (A165) in Ganstead. B J Marklew, Skirlaugh

Beverley alterations Please, please think very carefully about the proposed alterations to Beverley. We have a lovely market town that draws in visitors who spend their money in our shops and attractions. If we replace historic features like the York stone paving with featureless composite

materials the town will look no different from Milton Keynes (Durham manages to keep its historic identity) Beverley is the jewel in the crown of East Yorkshire. Let us keep it that way.J Cattermole, Beverley

Dear J CattermoleAny plans for the improvement of Beverley will of course be subject to full public consultation.

The council is committed to ensuring that Beverley retains its heritage and remains a jewel in the crown of the East Riding.

The public realm design code being developed as part of the town plan will guide future improvements to the physical environment in the town centre.

It will provide a framework to ensure the long-term economic health and prosperity of the town while at the same time recognising the importance of the historic features you mention.Jane Crossley, market towns renaissance manager

Electoral register Could someone please explain why the council has sent out reminders for the electoral register two weeks before the date on which the information requested is due. This seems to me to be a waste of resources, or was it sent just to me because they think I might forget.John Crawforth, Nafferton

Dear Mr CrawforthThank you for your correspondence concerning your reminder form for the register of electors roll. To explain the system the legislation covering the Register of Electors is set by Central Goverment for the whole of the UK. This means we must all use canvassers to conduct the final part of the process and use a relevant date of 15 October. Following the canvass we must publish the register by the 1st December each year.

Due to the large geographical size of the East Riding area and the high number of properties involved(nearly quarter of a million), we have to start the canvass process as early as possible and therefore send out the forms with the relevant date on stating that if occupiers knows there will be no changes they may return the forms straight away. This greatly helps us keep to the publication date.

This does however mean that a reminder form follows after a set length of time. Unfortunately if all East Riding occupiers left their forms until the 15th we would not be able to add all the changes to the register and publish in time for the Government deadline.

Deborah Sedman, senior electoral services officer

Highway signs I have noticed a trend over recent weeks for notices to be put up across the East Riding with details of imminent road works. Examples include Keldgate and Hengate in Beverley and the Leven to Coniston road.

The amount of information on these signs is very good but there is so much that it is impossible to read - impossible for a passenger let alone a driver who should be concentrating on the road ahead.

Up until recently it was the council’s policy to remove signs for things like shows or exhibitions because they were “distracting to drivers” (we had it in writing) even though they had just two or three words and an arrow and were in very large print. I also note there are now many examples of small signs, often two or three one after the other which are allowed for events. Again it is difficult to read these whilst driving.

I wonder what has brought about the council’s change in policy and could you explain what is and is now deemed to be (a) acceptable and (b) safe.John Brien, Beverley

Dear Mr BrienThank you for your query regarding highway signs.

Highway signs and roadmarkings are prescribed within a government statutory instrument, The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002 (TSRGD). This gives specific details of style, size, colour and shape allowed for warning and information signs and is applicable to signs on all public highways throughout the country.

The ‘black on yellow’ information signs to which you refer are specified within TSRGD. I accept that some of the signs contain a lot of information. However as always a balance has to be struck between providing enough meaningful information to road users and erecting too many signs which may add to confusion and clutter.

Signs placed on the highway to advertise or promote business or without Highway Authority approval are generally illegal as are signs deemed dangerous or distracting to drivers.

There has been no change to policy with regard to highway signs.Carl Skelton, highway maintenance service manager

C ottingham-based Worklink provides training for adults with learning disabilities

and fi nds them employment opportunities using the skills they have learnt.

The site also runs a coffee shop and café on the premises which will now use the vegetables grown on site to prepare the food on sale, including a wide variety of lettuce, kale, spinach and onions. They will also grow tomatoes and cucumbers when they are in season.

The scheme has been so successful that the café at Worklink now uses only homegrown lettuce, produced with no pesticides or insecticides, and enough is being grown to allow some to be sold as well.

The scheme nicknamed “The Good Life project” was one of the elements of Worklink which most impressed Hull City star Geovanni on his recent visit when he met with service users and staff

to learn about the valuable skills offered by the charity to its service users.

Kevin Holder, Worklink manager, said: “It was really exciting to have Geovanni visit us and we were pleased to see how interested he was in what we offer and the new projects we have begun.

“It seemed ridiculous that we were buying in produce when we have the capacity to grow our own and Worklink takes great pride in running an environmentally friendly site.

“Next year will see a signifi cant growth in the amount of vegetables that we produce and this in turn should help to add variety to the menu in the café.”

ConsultationUpdate

This column aims to let you know what consultations are taking place, how you can take part, and what happens once they are complete. By consulting and engaging with you, we can make sure that all of your views are heard and met.

New surveysPlay Rangers Survey. The play rangers are currently consulting with pupils at seven primary schools in the East Riding to fi nd out what physical activities they take part in after school. They are also asking pupils if there are any activities that they would like to take part in. Following the consultation, the play rangers hope to use this information to provide a variety of different activities, chosen by the pupils, which they will promote to the schools via colourful leafl ets and posters.

Positive Activities for Young People. The Positive Activities for Young People (PAYP) team are currently evaluating the latest round of activities by consulting with parents / carers of the young people involved. They are asking for information on the impact of the activities on the young people and any areas that they feel could be improved. This information will be used to inform the planning of the next round of activities. A newsletter will be sent to all those who took part informing them of the fi ndings of the consultation.

Completed consultationsPlay Pathfi nder Consultation. The Play Pathfi nder project, using information gathered from previous consultations with residents, has created designs for several play areas including Kirkham Road, Bridlington, Holme on Spalding Moor and Tickton. These designs are available now on the Have Your Say website (www.eastriding.gov.uk/consult) for children, young people, parents/carers and residents to comment on.

Building low cost homesLocal Area Agreement. Three-year targets were set and agreed with central government.

The targets committed the council and its partners to provide at least 250 new affordable homes between April 2008 and March 2011. An affordable home is one that is provided with subsidy, both for rent and low-cost market housing, for people who are unable to resolve their housing needs in the general housing market because of the relationship between local housing costs and incomes.

The target of 250 additional affordable homes in three years is particularly challenging when compared with previous annual completion of just 60 homes. The downturn in the economy also put achieving the target at risk as private house building slowed down and even stopped altogether in some areas. In addition, registered

social landlords found that sales of shared ownership housing usually used to cross-subsidise affordable homes to rent, also dried up.

The Government was, however, keen to ensure that ambitious house building targets were not derailed and has made funding available to keep the construction industry going and to help meet the need for more affordable homes, which had not diminished despite falling house prices. The council successfully bid for £16.5 million of this funding which, when matched with its own funding of £16.5 million, will deliver 275 new council homes by March 2011.

The challenge to build these new homes across the East Riding will not be an easy one, particularly as the timescales to qualify for the funding are very tight. However, the council and its partners are keen to do what they can to achieve and exceed

the targets whilst safeguarding and creating new jobs at the same time.

The council has identifi ed a range of sites where new affordable housing is needed. Most of this new housing is intended for older people which will have the added bonus of freeing up housing elsewhere for use by families. The new housing will be built to high environmental standards.

Council offi cers are talking to parish and town council representatives to explain the proposals. Planning applications will be submitted for each site as normal, allowing local people the opportunity to comment on the proposals.

IMPROVING: Headlands students celebrate with acting headteacher Scott Ratheram

Inspection takes school out of special measures

O fsted inspectors have given an East Riding school a thumbs up in

a recent report.

Heandlands School and Community Science College in Bridlington was the only East Riding school in special measures, but a report due out this week following an unannounced inspection will take the school out of special measures.

Scott Ratheram, acting headteacher: said “I am very proud of what has been a huge team effort at Headlands. To go from special measures straight to a satisfactory judgment, in what is a relatively short amount of time, is a real achievement for the whole school.

“Staff and students can feel rightly proud of how far Headlands has come. However, we know this is just a point on a journey to where we are going and we need to keep the momentum of improvement going as we strive to become an outstanding school.”

Students also welcomed the news. Head boy Luke Artley said:

“Our school will now receive the prestige it deserves. We have always known it was a good school, now everyone else will too”.

The school had been placed in special measures in April 2008 and following the inspection has now been declared ‘satisfactory with good features, one of which is safeguarding’.

Councillor Penny Peacock, portfolio holder for children, young people and schools at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “This is a fantastic outcome for the school and the community.

“Credit must go to acting

headteacher Scott Ratheram and executive headteacher Chris Abbott, along with the staff, students, parents, governors and the school improvement team backed by the council who have all pulled together to deliver a bright future for the school.”

Chris Abbott, executive headteacher, said: “This has only been made possible due to the work of Scott Ratheram, the senior team, the staff and students. The support of the local authority and Headlands governing body has also been vital in enabling us to come out of special measures in such a short timeframe.”

I ssues which affect adult services, those with learning diffi culties and

those in need of affordable housing are being looked at by East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s social wellbeing overview and scrutiny committee.

A meeting last month saw the committee discuss issues including the East Riding’s Older People’s Strategy and a report about dignity in care.

Before the meeting Councillor Mary Kingston, chair of the committee, visited the Old School House – a care facility in Beverley – where, for the second time in six months, she spoke with staff, visitors and residents.

She said: “The majority of the work done by the social wellbeing overview and scrutiny committee is about elderly people.

“Many people move to the East Riding because they think it’s a really good place to live. It’s beautiful, and also very fl at. The climate is pretty good and a lot of people are drawn to the coast and places like Bridlington and Hornsea.

“Older people need care, they have given so much during their lifetime and they should receive payment in kind.

“I’m extremely impressed with the care that people receive at facilities like The Old School House. You can

see how well cared for people are. It’s a modern building which is kept very clean and the staff are so supportive to the people who live there.”

But older residents are just one of the groups set to benefi t from the work of the committee, which has the interests of some of the most vulnerable members of society at heart.

A strategy for people with learning disabilities has also recently been looked at by the committee.

Councillor Kingston said: “I’m on the learning disabilities partnership board. We meet and discuss issues around people with learning disabilities. We listen to what they have to say and what their aims are.

“It’s important that we enable people with learning disabilities to do ordinary things, use the services which are on offer, and feel included in the local community.

“With real help and support they can make important choices and express their preferences about how they want to live.

“Independent living is important as most people like to be able to control their own life and do things for themselves. They have their own friendships and interests.”

The committee is also looking at proposals which will see more affordable housing created in the East Riding through a £33m investment by the Government and East Riding of Yorkshire Council.

Put cans and plastics in blue bins without using carrier bags

Washed and squashed cans and plastic bottles no longer need plastic bags in bins

C ans and plastic bottles can now be mixed with the

paper in blue bins without fi rst having to be put into a plastic bag.

“Our residents have made this possible by increasingly following the message to wash and squash cans and

plastics,” said Councillor Symon Fraser, portfolio holder for environmental issues, waste, recycling, strategic highways, planning and rural issues.

He added: “When they are cleaned in washing up water, dried on the side and then squashed, there are no nasty liquids, like tomato sauce or fi sh oils, to contaminate the paper.

“The aim is to reduce the number of plastic bags our residents need to use, but we will continue to measure the contamination of the paper to

determine whether the initiative is a success.”

The council is also emphasising which types of plastics to put into the blue bins. Plastics graded 1, 2 or 3 can be recycled in the bin, and they are usually bottle shaped like those for shampoo and washing up liquid.

The numbers are found on the underside and appear inside a raised triangle symbol.

Lower grade plastics cannot be recycled in the East Riding due to the lack of suitable markets within the UK.

RESIDENTS in nine areas of the East Riding will have their cardboard collected in the New Year.

The collections are for residents living in rural areas farthest from the East Riding’s 10 household waste recycling sites.The collections are on: • 5 January from

10 -11.30am in Melbourne; 12noon -1.30pm, Newton on Derwent; and 2 -3.30pm, Stamford Bridge.

• 6 January, cardboard will be collected from 10 - 11.30am in Hotham; 12noon-1.30pm, Bubwith; 2-3.30pm, Snaith.

• 7 January, the collections will be from 10 - 11.30am, Bewholme; 12noon -1.30pm, Skirlaugh; and 2-3.30pm, Bainton.

The venues for the cardboard collections will be announced in the December edition of East Riding News.

The council is highlighting European Week for Waste Prevention (EWWP) by promoting the Target 45+ website and its pages of waste reduction tips.EWWP week is from 21 to 29 November and is the European Commission’s project to raise awareness about the need to reduce waste and change patterns of consumption.Target 45+ is the local

campaign to encourage East Riding residents to recycle and compost about 45 per cent of their waste, keeping it out of landfi ll. The council is predicting this will be achieved during next year.Among the concerns for the EWWP and the council is the amount of food that is wasted. To combat this, the council recently launched a scheme for residents to buy

food waste systems at reduced prices. Details are on www.target45plus.org.uk The website also offers residents the chance to repair household items or to pass them on to charities through the council’s repair and reuse register.For more information, visit www.target45plus.org,uk and start reducing waste and saving money.

Top judges for council awards that highlight waste of four million jeansTHREE eminent fi gures will judge the council’s fashion awards for students of Bishop Burton College and East Riding College.

They are designer Brenna Yore, Dr Pauline Deutz, programme director of the MSc environmental technology, University of Hull, and Wayne Martin, international costumier.

The students will submit designs for garments using pre-worn and charity shop clothing, drawing attention to the amount of clothing thrown away every year.

Driffi eld-based Mr Martin has produced collections for stage and fi lm, including for the Royal Opera House and the Royal Shakespeare Company. His fi lm credits include Shakespeare in Love, Phantom of the Opera and the James Bond movie, Die Another Day.

Miss Yore is a London-based designer for clients such as

Primark, as well as for high end

designers for London Fashion Week and New York Fashion Week. She often works abroad and recently spent several months on projects in India and Australia.

Dr Deutz’s interests centre on environmental policy and waste management. Currently, she is investigating the potential to enhance use of the product design process as a means of promoting sustainable resource use.

East Riding residents annually throw away nearly 2,000 tonnes of clothes, which could be sent to charity shops or reused, equivalent to four million pairs of jeans or ten thousand suitcases full of clothes.

The award ceremony will be in February. The winning student will receive a voucher for £200 and there will be two runners up who will each receive £50 in vouchers.

Efforts praised at pre-school opening

C hildren and parents in Walkington are celebrating

following a £36,000 refurbishment of their pre-school building.

The work was made possible as a result of a £26,000 grant from the council’s Sure Start fund along with £5,000 from Walkington Parish Council, £1,000 from the Joseph and Annie Cattle Trust and £4,000

raised by the pre-school.The new facility was

opened by Ernie Teal MBE and Councillor Stephen Parnaby OBE.

Cllr Parnaby praised the efforts of all concerned in raising the money for the refurbishment.

He said: “This is a great result for Walkington. It just shows what can be achieved through community spirit and everyone pulling together for the benefi t of the village”.

The building has been used by the pre-school since it formed over 30 years ago as well as being used by the Apron Strings before and after school club. Although much loved and well-

used by the local community, the building was starting to show its age and the effects of years of tiny hands and feet at play.

The money has funded a number of improvements to the building including a computer area, improved disabled access ensuring DDA compliance, new toilets, an enlarged cloakroom area, staff meeting room, storage areas and new windows, creating a warmer and more practical learning environment for the children.

Walkington Pre-school is a registered charity employing eight staff and catering for up to 35 children.

EAST Riding of Yorkshire Council is holding events across the region to celebrate the work and successes of children’s centres. All 13 centres will be celebrating on 14 November by opening their doors to the public.

Each children’s centre will be running different activities based on their facilities and several of the children’s centres will be offering gifts to families

who attend, both practical and decorative.

East Riding children’s centres are being developed to support families with children under fi ve so that they enjoy raising their family. The centres provide access to family support, play and learning opportunities, information about health services and much more.

Lesley Gilson, FISH (Families

Information Service Hub) manager, said: “These celebration days offer families an opportunity to see what children’s centres can offer. They are community orientated and we hope people with children choose to come along.”

L iterature-lovers have the chance to try books from libraries around

the country as East Riding of Yorkshire Council throws open the doors of its own libraries.

More than 4,000 libraries in England, Wales and Northern Ireland will now lend to any member of the public regardless of where they live.

Libraries in the East Riding are part of the initiative and will now welcome borrowers from elsewhere, while East Riding residents will be able to access books from other authorities, including those nearby in Hull, other parts of Yorkshire, and on the south bank.

Councillor Jane Evison, portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public protection, said: “This move is great news for residents who visit other areas and can benefi t from the books which are available in libraries there.

“It will also be welcomed by the thousands of tourists who make their way to enjoy the beauty of the East Riding every year. Access to

the fantastic libraries here will be just one more reason for people to choose to visit this area.”

The move means that anyone can join a library anywhere by producing just one piece of identifi cation which shows a name and address. It also means that people can access a library anywhere after showing a library

card from their home authority.Roderick Ormiston, from

Dronefi eld near Sheffi eld, regularly visits South Cliff Caravan Park with his wife Ann. He said: “We spend a fair bit of time at the caravan park - around two or three months a year.

“We use the local libraries to get books, especially for my wife and daughter, and we borrow videos

from there.“We also use the mobile library

quite a lot because it parks just across the road from us at the caravan park. It’s great for us to use the internet and email facilities, which are particularly useful when you are away from home. We can pay bills, read letters, and it enables us to stay away for longer. ”

Help us tackle coastal erosion

A public consultation is to be held on the draft Shoreline

Management Plan (SMP2).

The plan will help decide the best way to respond to coastal fl ood and erosion in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire over the next 20, 50 and 100 years.

Anyone living or working along the coast, from Flamborough Head to Gibraltar Point in Lincolnshire is invited to take part.

The SMP2 document provides short, medium and

long-term policies and options for the future management of erosion and fl ooding along the East Riding and Lincolnshire coastline, taking into account the impact on people and the environment. It sets out area by area how the East Riding coast will be affected by sea level rise and coastal erosion and provides a policy framework for how this should be dealt with. It also considers the effect of climate change on our coast over the coming years.

The formal SMP2 consultation will start on 2 November 2009 for three months. Four exhibitions are to be held in December at venues along the East Riding coast for people to visit, see copies of the draft plan

and talk to the people involved. We want to hear residents’ views on the draft document and hope as many people as possible will take this opportunity to give us their valuable opinion. Based on feedback received during this consultation period, it is anticipated the fi nal plan will be completed by the end of June 2010.

Copies of the draft plan will also be available to view at County Hall, libraries and customer service centres, along with feedback forms for people to provide their comments. Interested residents can visit the project website atwww.hecag-smp2.co.uk and offer comments electronically through this portal.

THE Humber Housing Partnership has produced a sub regional housing strategy which is currently out for consultation until the end of November.

The partnership comprises the four local authorities (East Riding of Yorkshire, Hull, North and North East Lincolnshire ), housing associations, Gateway Pathfi nder, the private sector, Humber and Wolds Rural Community Council and representatives from a number of regional bodies. The strategy,

which runs from 2009 - 2019, sets out a framework for housing investment in the Humber.

Councillor Jane Evison, portfolio holder for cultural services, housing and public protection, said: “I hope everyone who has an interest in housing will read this important document as we would welcome their views. This is an important strategy for the future of housing.”

The strategy is very closely linked to other investment plans relating to economic development,

planning and transport. The overarching vision for housing in the Humber is that there should be more balanced housing markets where local residents have access to a wide range of high quality affordable homes with related support contributing to the overall economic prosperity of the area.

If you are interested in fi nding out more about what the strategy says, you can view a copy on the Humber Economic Partnership website (www.humberep.co.uk).

PLAN YOUR WINTER ROUTE See pages 14 and 15 for further details of salted roads and salted paths

GET READY NOW!Don’t wait until it snows. Check your car now. A cold snap may come without warning so be prepared.

DRIVE ON SALTED ROADSKeep to our salted networks as much as you can. This may involve a slight detour but will be safer and probably quicker than risking icy back roads. See pages 14 and 15 for further details of salted roads and salted paths.

DRIVE SENSIBLYGive yourself plenty of time for your journey. If it’s icy or snowy, you’ll need to drive more slowly.

HIGHWAYS AGENCYThese roads (shown in green) are treated by the Highways Agency

RESPONSIVE NETWORKResponsive roads (shown in blue) are treated when ice is forecast to be present after noon

FURTHER INFO For general information on the M18, M62 and A63, call the Highways Agency information line on 08457 504030 or visit www.highways.gov.uk

WHAT WE WILL DO We’ll do our best to ensure that, as far as reasonably practicable, you can travel about the East Riding with the minimum of delays and disruption caused by severe winter weather.

To do this we rely on sophisticated monitoring equipment and meteorological forecasts to tell us

when the roads and paths need salting.About 40 per cent of our roads, stretching

780 miles (1,250km), will be treated when ice and snow is expected. This is called the precautionary network and is made up of the most important routes. A further 10 per cent, or 280 miles (430km), will be treated during extended periods

of adverse weather. This is called the responsive network.

Our aim is to complete the precautionary salting network within four hours of the decision to salt.

During snow we make every effort to clear all the precautionary network giving priority to the major roads.

SALT BINS AND HEAPS There are over 750 salt bins in the East Riding, they are for use by residents to spread salt onto the highway during severe winter conditions.When using salt it is important to wear appropriate clothing such as strong shoes or boots and gloves with a good grip.The salt can be spread using a garden spade or shovel by holding it in one hand with a small stick in the other, the stick should be used to fl ick the salt onto the surface moving left and right covering the area evenly. An amount similar to a bag of sugar is more than suffi cient

to treat ten paces of footpath. Please take care not to spread salt near plants or on grass verges as it can kill the vegetation. For areas away from the salt bin a wheelbarrow can be useful.In snow conditions the snow needs to be cleared using spades or brooms before salt is applied.The salt bins are not locked, please do not place litter in them or spray graffi ti on the bin.If any damage is caused to the salt bins, or if they need refi lling then please phone the salt bin helpline on (01482) 395786 or (01482) 395722.

STAY UP TO DATEIn the event of severe winter weather, up-to-date weather and road information will be broadcast on local radio. BBC Radio Humberside 1485 MW / 95.9 FM

BBC Radio York 666 or 1260 MW or 95.5, 103.7 or 104.3 FM96.9 Viking FM 96.9 FMMagic 1161 MW

East Riding of Yorkshire Council youth service is one of only 33 local authorities nationwide to successfully bid for funding to offer the v Talent Year initiative. v Talent Year is a £10.5 million national full time volunteering programme.

EAST Riding of Yorkshire Council’s young people’s substance misuse service offers help to any person under the age of 19 and living in the East Riding of Yorkshire, who is worried about drugs or alcohol.

The service offers free confi dential advice, support and access to professionally trained social workers and nurses on an individual basis.

Substance misuse is the harmful or dangerous use of drugs or alcohol when a person has developed a dependency on the substance. This dependency makes it dangerous and diffi cult for these people to give up by themselves and makes it important that they receive specialist help.

A young person may have a problem with drugs or alcohol if: • Other people are worried about their drug or

alcohol use• They miss school or work because of their use• They fi nd it hard to cope without the use of

drugs• They suffer from depression or mood swings• They suffer withdrawal symptoms when they do

not use alcohol or drugs, or They have legal problems because of alcohol or

drug use. The young people’s substance misuse service

offers help and advice to enable people to make safer choices about drugs or alcohol. The service can also helps to put young people in touch with other related services and provide access to health care.

October competition winners

As the nights draw in and the Autumn/Winter season counts

down towards Christmas, this is an ideal time to be entertained, thrilled and amused by shows at Hull New Theatre and Hull City Hall.

This month brings together old favourites and modern classics, all designed to lift the spirits and put you in the mood for festivities.

Take a magical, festive trip down memory lane at Hull City Hall with Remember When At Christmas, a show revelling in nostalgia with unforgettable songs from the 40s, 50s and early 60s (23rd November).

Neil Sands and his cast of West End performers bring you more than two hours of singalong numbers made famous by the likes of Doris Day, Bing Crosby, Julie Andrews, Vera Lynn, Max Bygraves, Frank Sinatra and many more.

It’s a wonderful, feel-good show full of good old-fashioned fun – guaranteed to have you smiling, singing along and looking back to the days of truly memorable songs!

Another golden age of music is set to bring Hull New Theatre to life as smash hit West End musical Dreamboats and Petticoats comes to

the city (23rd-28th November).Written by Laurence Marks and

Maurice Gran, the team behind Goodnight Sweetheart and Birds of a Feather, the show is based on the million-selling albums of the same name and has been a sell-out sensation at the Savoy Theatre.

This Bill Kenwright and Laurie Mansfi eld production is set in 1961 and features classic numbers including Let’s Dance, To Know Him Is To Love Him, Shaking All Over, Bobby’s Girl, Three Steps To Heaven, and Happy Birthday Sweet 16.

Say ‘Bah humbug!’ to cold nights and book your tickets for the traditional treat of Scrooge (16th – 21st November) at Hull New Theatre. Starring the legendary Tommy Steele, whose career includes over twenty hit singles, Hollywood movies such as Finian’s Rainbow and career-defi ning stage musicals such as Half A Sixpence and Hans Andersen, it’s a spectacular feast of song and dance.

Bill Kenwright’s record-breaking London Palladium production is bursting with stunning sets and costumes, illusions from Paul Kieve – creator of the magic effects in the Harry Potter fi lms – and rousing songs including the Oscar-nominated Thank You Very Much. But tickets are selling fast, so don’t

be left out in the cold.Take That fans are also snapping

up seats fast for Never Forget (10th-14th November), the West End musical based on the foursome’s hit songs now coming to Hull New Theatre.

Starring Philip Olivier, of TV’s Brookside and The Games, Never Forget features classic Take That songs, dazzling special effects, a script by BAFTA award winner Danny Brocklehurst (Shameless)

JOSEPH P KENNEDY’S HOLLYWOOD YEARS by Cari Beauchamp This is the fi rst account of the life of a man who made his millions in Hollywood in a particularly ruthless manner. Indeed, he became known as “the only outsider” to fl eece Hollywood. Joseph P Kennedy had a tumultuous private life, having many affairs with various Hollywood stars of their day but principally with Gloria Swanson who was the Marilyn Monroe of her time. Joe Kennedy also found time to father nine children with his ever-faithful wife, Rose. He left Hollywood determined to create a political dynasty. President Roosevelt appointed him as the American Ambassador to London in the 1930s but eventually recalled him because of his despatches which were forecasting a German victory if Britain declared war. He lost two children in wartime air accidents, Joe his eldest and Kathleen who had married into British aristocracy and he was to die knowing that Jack (JFK), his second eldest, and Bobby had been assassinated. He died in November 1969 at the age of eighty-one after eight years of being unable to speak. This is a terrifi c story about a man who

could be harsh and brutal in his business dealings and could cut off formerly close friends without a blink but his love for his family was unconditional.

FINEST YEARS: CHURCHILL AS WARLORD 1940-1945 by Max Hastings (Harper Press: £25) Churchill wielded more power than any other British prime minister. In 1938 he seemed to be a man out of his time whose vision was rooted in the Britain of Queen Victoria. This did not prevent him from becoming the greatest war leader his country had ever known and a statesman whose name echoed across the world like no other Englishman in history. But at the end of it all the elementary and secondary schoolboys who had grown up to become the aircrew, sailors and soldiers did not vote for him in the 1945 election. They wanted, and demanded, change from the past. This book has been acknowledged as the best biography of the man who, on his eightieth birthday, spoke to both Houses of Parliament and said: “I have never accepted what many people have kindly said -

that I inspired the nation. It was the nation and the race living around the globe that had the lion heart. I had the luck to be called upon to give the roar”.

DEADLY FINISH by John Francome Francome (Headline: £17.99) Now that Dick Francis has retired to live in the Turks and Cocos Islands in the West Indies, John Francome is the only champion jockey writing thrillers and developing a career commentating for Channel 4 television. In his new book it’s Royal Ascot and life is good for young trainer Simon Waterford. He has inherited his father’s top-class yard, his horse has just won the Coventry Stakes and he is soon to marry his beautiful half-Brazilian girlfriend, Mariana, but she has a secret which would wreck her hopes of marriage and which Simon’s uncle Geoff has found out. On their way back from the races a brawl develops leaving Mariana in a sea of blood tending to Simon’s wounded face while Geoff lies dead on the fl oor. Mariana can’t help but feel relieved. Her secret is safe, or is it?

FOOTBALL’S COMING HOME: Councillor Stephen Parnaby, OBE, backs the bid with Hull City player and former England player Nick Barmby

BACKING THE BID: The Hull City squad

P eople living in the East Riding - whether they are

football fans or not - have the chance to throw their support behind a scheme which will create jobs

and boost regeneration.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council is backing a bid to

bring the 2018 World Cup to Hull which could see the KC Stadium host World Cup events.

Councillor Stephen Parnaby, OBE, leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “I hope people living in the East Riding will register their support online to bring the World Cup here.

“Not only would this be good news for the East Riding in terms of jobs, regeneration and publicity, it would also give fans the chance to see international football played at the highest level on our doorstep.”

A successful bid would see the

KC Stadium host group games and would be a boost for the whole area.

Residents are urged to register their support for the bid at www.england2018bid.com/support/register.aspx by choosing “Hull” as the host city.

The last World Cup in Germany saw 3.36m fans attend the actual games along with 18.4m fans watching the games in “fan parks”.

Over 24 billion viewers in more than 240 countries watched at least one match and the German government estimated that the World Cup contributed an

additional £250m to its national economy – roughly £20m and 100,000 visitors per host city.

Overall, they estimated that the competition created 50,000 new jobs and contributed two billion euros (£1.8bn) to retail sales.

To register your support for Hull and East Yorkshire 2018 Back the Bid, visit www.england2018bid.com/support/register.aspx or text ‘HULL’ to 62018.

Every football fan in Hull and East Yorkshire has their part to play, so register now and show your support.
