Local news... THE STORY OF THE RED POPPY

The traditional red poppies and other products sold during November are made and sold as a symbol of remembrance, and love and care for all those whose lives were either lost or changed in service to their country.

There are many people in Tideswell and District who already know this history, but donations for the Poppy Appeal are always so generous I hope you find the following helpful.

During the First World War (1914–1918) much of the fighting took place in Western Europe. Previously beautiful countryside was blasted, bombed and fought over, again and again. The landscape swiftly turned to fields of mud: bleak and barren scenes where little or nothing could grow.  Bright red Flanders poppies, however, were delicate but resilient flowers and grew in their thousands, flourishing even in the middle of chaos and destruction.  In early May 1915, shortly after losing a friend in Ypres, a Canadian doctor, Lt Col John McCrae, was inspired by the sight of poppies to write a now famous poem called ‘In Flanders Fields‘, set out below.

McCrae’s poem inspired an American academic, Moina Michael, to make and sell red silk poppies which were brought to England by a French woman, Anna Guérin. The (Royal) British Legion, formed in 1921, ordered 9 million of these poppies and sold them on 11 November that year. The poppies sold out almost immediately and that first ever ‘Poppy Appeal’ raised over £106,000; a considerable amount of money at the time. This was used to help WW1 veterans with employment and housing.

The following year, Major George Howson set up the Poppy Factory to employ disabled ex-Servicemen. Today, the factory and the Legion’s warehouse in Aylesford produces millions of poppies each year.

The demand for poppies in England was so high that few were reaching Scotland. Earl Haig’s wife established the ‘Lady Haig Poppy Factory’ in Edinburgh in 1926 to produce poppies exclusively for Scotland. Over 5 million Scottish poppies (which have four petals and no leaf unlike poppies in the rest of the UK) are still made by hand by disabled ex-Servicemen at Lady Haig’s Poppy Factory each year and distributed by our sister charity Poppyscotland.

I have the RBL accounts for the year 2015/2016 showing how the RBL raises and spends its money, if anyone would like to see them, please get in touch.

IN FLANDERS FIELDS

In Flanders’ fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders’ fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe;
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high,
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders’ Fields.

Local news... 2018 POPPY APPEAL

Pete, hopefully you still have the article I sent on the history of the red poppy, to be put in VV at your discretion. Today’s post has contained my PAO 2018 Appeal Pack, which is the cause of this note.
Could that article on the poppy be put in the September edition please (the one that goes out in October) – then people will read it in October and hopefully make their usual generous donations. I will also have a piece for the October VV, showing how money has been spent on helping 2 ex-military personnel have life-saving medical help.
Enjoy Wakes!!!

Local news... Article for publication

Lennon’s Boots
Readers may remember that in January, Lib Slattery entertained our Local History Club with stories concerning this, the last heavy working boot manufacturer in Britain. Lib had then promised us a visit to the works in Stoney Middleton and so in early May about 22 members of the club regaled themselves with excellent chips, butties and pizza at the Moon Inn before strolling across the road to the factory which is located in the old corn mill just below the fish and chip shop.
A narrow staircase led to a workroom where an operator was stamping out the uppers for some quite exclusive cycling shoes (in recent years Lennons have diversified tremendously) and just behind him on the racks were rolls of beautifully smelling leather. This is now sourced from all over the world including some from India which has almost psychedelic printing on the outer surface.
On another bench Helen Lewis was sewing up the backs of quite high boots on an immensely big, solid sewing machine which according to the maker’s badge, was made in America in 1892. It was an education to see the accuracy with which she spun this beautiful leather around in order to get the stitches just so. Later on, Helen demonstrated the “skiving “machine which shaved a fraction off two pieces of leather so that they could be sewn together without the edges being too “proud”.
The factory is filled with machinery like this – some of which are so old and so specialised that Leslie Lennon – Lib’s dad – has to engineer spare parts for them himself. The thing is that Lennons have seen off so many competitors that these machines are no longer produced. When some re-enactors wanted some replica WWl boots (the B5’s), Leslie went searching through their sheds and came back with the exact knives and lasts to complete the order – they must have been put away for nearly 100 years. Providently, one of our members placed an order for a pair of B5’s so the afternoon proved to be quite successful for Lennons.
Thanks Lib for such an educational trip and we very much hope that your boots continue to sell for another 120 years.
So another successful season for the history club comes to a close, we hope with good luck see you all again in November.
Brian Woodall.

Local news... Works to start at Fountain Square Church!

After 7 years of planning and waiting, the complete refurbishment of Fountain Square Churches buildings will begin this month. We are delighted that the main funding is now all in place and the contractors, T & C Williams of Sheffield can begin work.
We will end up having top quality buildings for the community to use, with disabled access throughout, a modern, well-equipped kitchen, a new entrance and multi-purpose rooms for the church and community functions – and much more. The work will take about 6 months to complete and the site will be closed off during the work. Wakes week will not be disrupted, and, weather permitting, watch out for our pop-up refreshment gazebo!
We look forward to the whole community being able to see and use the buildings. We will still need to raise some money for furnishings, so if you would like to ‘buy a chair’, contact our treasurer, Margaret Brignell, who will be very grateful to receive your donations.

Local news... Report of research project for a Community Centre in Tideswell

Report of research project for a Community Centre in Tideswell.

Introduction

Representatives of Tideswell Parish Council and Tideswell and District Community Association formed a working group to research the need and want for a Community Centre in Tideswell. The group was formed to look at creating a multi-purpose centre, much larger than existing and proposed buildings in the Village. This was to offer larger function spaces, a community centre and an indoor sports facility.
After the Scout hut fire, the Parish Council contacted Tideswell Youth Club Committee to discuss the possibility of working together to provide a new, bigger facility. The initial idea was to work in partnership to develop a facility at the Sports Complex to allow better access and parking to the venue. Following discussions the Committee informed the Council that they had to replace the building as per their tenancy agreement and did not wish to work together on a new location project.

Location

The working group looked at possible locations in the Village. It was agreed that the only feasible location for a large site, suitable for indoor sport, would be at the Sports Complex. To house a Community Centre, suitable for large functions the site needed to provide suitable parking and disabled access.

Design

Following a donation to the Parish Council, a company offered to produce at a heavily reduced rate, a design of what the Community Centre could look like externally. An internal design was provided, however it was always stated that internally, the community centre would need to be designed and created carefully with the user groups input.

Questionnaire and display of design idea

At the Parish Council Open Day in September 2017, the group showcased the design boards and had copies of a questionnaire to give to members of the public to answer some basic questions.
Although the questionnaire was only completed by about 30 people, over all the idea was positively received. Concerns were raised about the other venues in the area and what effect this would have on them.

Other Venues

It was decided by the TCC working group, to contact the venues in the Parish which were available for public hire. A questionnaire with questions about capacity, facilities and usage was created and sent to St John’s Church, St John’s Institute, Fountain Square Church, The George (upstairs room hire), TADVO re Scout Hut rebuild and Nicholson Court.

The results of the questionnaire revealed that the existing facilities in the Parish and those currently about to be redeveloped offer quite a range of facilities for the Parish.
Capacity:
Fountain Square Church will be able to hold 200 people split between the two main rooms, there will also be a smaller meeting room which will be able to hold 20 people.
The institute main room can hold 80 people.
The newly refurbished Nicholson Court has a new facility for hire which can hold 40 people.
The George had not responded to the questionnaire at the time of creating this report, but the upstairs room capacity is approx. 60 people.
TADVO at this time could not give accurate details on capacity but did provide us with as much information as is currently available.
All of the above facilities offer a range of activities and welcome new users.
It has also been reported that The Merchant’s Yard is opening an 80 seat venue in the near future.

Conclusion:

After receiving the information from the existing venues it was decided that at this time the need for a community centre was not a priority for the village. An indoor Sports facility is desirable but as a stand-alone project would be difficult to finance and maintain.
Bearing in mind the current and projected meeting room capacity we will put the project on hold pending future developments. The working party recommends to the Parish Council and Community Association that a group continue to work together and explore possible refurbishment and redevelopment of the existing sports complex building.

For a number of years we’ve had Ruth Breedon to thank for the planting and care of these tubs, which flank St. John’s main entrance and offer a cheery welcome to our many visitors. Ruth is ready to hand the job over, and I’m wondering if anyone in the village who appreciates these flowers would be willing to take on looking after them? The tubs need to be restocked twice a year (ready to look nice for Wakes Week for example) and new compost added, for which all expenses are reimbursed. Routine watering is part of the weekly care of church flower arrangements. If you’d be willing to consider it, please contact Jill Ormerod (Warden) on 872339.
Thanks, Simon

Local news... Dog Mess

The Parish Council recently requested more Dog Mess bins in the Parish. As previously mentioned DDDC have said they will not provide new bins but they will relocated bins from one area to another. It is felt that won’t help the situation as the bins are all well used. DDDC did ask the Parish Council to remind people that any of the public bins around the Parish can be used for dog mess. There have been lots of reports of dog fouling on the pavements and especially on the school approach. There is a penalty of up to £1000 for anybody who is prosecuted. Anyone who is seen to leave dog mess will be report. You can report this directly with DDDC using their website www.derbyshiredales.gov.uk/environment-and-waste/roads/street-care-and-cleaning/dog-fouling/report-it
It has also been reported that there are lots of dog mess bags being left on trees and in walls. Again we ask if this does not happen and that such bags are placed in bins.

BUXTON SOROPTIMISTS The Buxton Soroptimists have enjoyed the good weather and have been busy celebrating the successful stall they held as part of Buxton’s MAY FAIR.  They then went on to Staffordshire Moorlands Soroptimists, to inaugurate an official FRIENDSHIP LINK.  The two clubs have worked closely together over many years and have enjoyed attending events that each other has held. Now Buxton & Staffordshire Moorlands are officially Friendship Links, as they are in different Soroptimist Regions.( Presidents together in photo below)

Local news... Article for Parish Magazines

Hello,
My name is Mark Adams and I and my colleague Daniel Wimberley have been sending out pieces about the events happening at Bamford Quaker Community which you have been kind enough to put in your magazines over the past few years.
One of the most recent was a retreat teaching Hun Yuan qigong (March 29th-April 3rd)- a repeat of a 2017 retreat here. This elicited an invitation to write an article about this for Castleton magazine.
I will be teaching classes from the first week in June- Monday evening at Bamford Quaker Community and Tuesday morning at Bamford Institute so it seems timely to offer this piece as a one-off in the hope that more of you may chose to take it up for your June editions. This my first commercial foray into Qigong teaching though I qualified a few years back and have practiced seriously since 1999.
In peace,
Mark Adams

Local news... Church Facilities

We’re now actively exploring the provision of a fully accessible toilet, and a fit for purpose small kitchen/drinks point and servery at St. John’s, to extend our hospitality to visitors, worshippers and audiences. During May, architect’s drawings outlining several options for the location of these facilities will be on display at the back of church. You are warmly invited to have a look and leave your comments and questions. St. John’s is both Tideswell’s church, and a national treasure, and we’d like to know your views on the proposed developments. It is envisaged that these plans will form one part of a larger suite of works, including essential maintenance to the chancel roof, south porch and tower, and a complete re-wire and re-lighting of the building. Lots of hard work and grant seeking lie ahead!

Local news... The Host

ANGELS AND FLOWERS IN TIDESWELL  CHURCH

During Wakes Week expect the unexpected if you visit the Parish Church. We will be attempting to create an art installation with the theme of ‘angels’.  When you visit the church (If all goes to plan), expect to encounter not a single angel, not a few angels but thousands of angels! We need to mobilise local school children, church goers, villagers and visitors to create the vast numbers required. The angels can be constructed from a simple template printed on A4 paper which will be available in local schools, shops and in the Church prior to and during Wakes Week. For greater impact, we require plain white angels but you may wish to put your name, a message or a prayer inside your examples. Note the use of the plural form in examples – we hope each individual will make a number of angels for us to achieve the effect sought. Do angels have feet?  Ours need them! Without feet for use as anchoring points our angels may take flight when the church doors are opened!

Floral displays, each with a biblical reference, will be placed at strategic points around the church to highlight the angelic theme of the installation. Our plan is to make use of locally grown flowers and greenery to create a simple, naturalistic effect with local children and families playing a part in this element of the installation. We would be very, very grateful for donations of local garden flowers or greenery, either brought to Church on Thursday 21st June in the afternoon or by allowing our flower arrangers to pick flowers suitable for their particular display.  If you could help in this way, please sign up on the list at the back of the Church or leave a message on 01298 871317.

Local news... Parking

I don’t frequent the village much these days but when I do parking I have to say  is diabolical. Yes, laziness, ignorance and bad traffic management are all in the mix. However, and yes I know that this is a hot potato, unless the council usefully implement and enforce the use of yellow lines and traffic management, it will only get worse. This I have first hand knowledge of, from my many years spent in the South West of England, a very busy tourist area in the summer months. A lot of the towns and villages were never designed for such large explosions of both traffic and tourists and without new traffic management systems being put in place they would never cope. Yes there were objections to parking restrictions but once they were in place and enforced the local population got used to it and the towns and villages functioned all the better for it. The exception being when the tourists abused the rulings but they were subsequently punished by the traffic management system accordingly. These systems do work and with a little thought behind it, I’m sure the same could well work for good old Tidza.

Yours in a hopefully helpful way

Local news... Litton Shop AGM

The AGM of what is Derbyshire’s oldest community shop was held on March 27th.

The Chairman and Treasurer presented the accounts for the 12 months ending 31 December 2017 to the meeting which were proposed and accepted.

The Chairman in his report praised the work of the shop staff and volunteers for helping produce excellent results for the year and also the generosity of John Burrows in replacing the shop front door.  In view of the results, the shop was able, in line with its ethos to make donations to Village Charities; The Friends of Litton School, Christ Church Litton and the Methodist Chapel.

He went on to praise the work of the staff, volunteers and local suppliers who ensured that the shop was well stocked and open for business as normal during the recent inclement weather.

The Treasurer detailed the fact that during the year the shop had to replace both the main freezer unit and the large chiller display. He went on to outline the benefits to the shop of the energy saving measures we were taking and in particular the fact the shop had benefited to the tune of approximately £2000 following the installation of the Solar Panels two years earlier.

Details of the shop’s services can be found in the leaflet available in the shop or electronically on littonvillageshop.co.uk and https://ift.tt/2I8V369 .

Local news... Litton Parish Trees

Recently, Litton Parish Council has successfully completed two phases of a phased programme of tree maintenance, which had been 50% funded by the Friends of Litton Village, to prune and thin the trees on the green and those nearby the centre of the village.

The donation raised by local projects through a network of volunteers allowed the work to be undertaken sooner than would have otherwise been possible and we hope residents and visitors will soon see a difference as we move towards summer. Further work is being scheduled to take place, in the near future.

If you are one of the few who benefited from the logs resulting from the recent work, would you be willing to make a contribution to assist with the cost of future maintenance? Donations can be made through the Parish Council who would welcome your support. Donations can be sent to The Parish Clerk, Litton Parish Council 

Ms Gill Turner
Address:	Rockingham Lodge Market Square Tideswell Buxton SK17 8LQ

As an organisation The Friends of Litton Village raise funds to benefit deserving causes and with the future phases it would be good to see the distribution of logs to benefit as many local, and especially our elderly residents, as is possible.

CRESSBROOK FILM CLUB
Friday 4th May
THE DEATH OF STALIN (cert 15, 107mins)
This film is a wonderful, hilarious black comedy from writer/director Armando Ianucci (The Thick of It,  Veep,  W1A) with a great cast including Steve Buscemi, Michael Palin and Simon Russell Beale playing some of the most notorious figures of the day. On March 2nd 1953 the dictator of the Soviet Union for 30 years Joseph Stalin, suffered a stroke and died plunging his team of ministers into a few days of madness, insane paranoia, farcical plotting and ruthless backstabbing – all of them tussling for control. Dont expect good taste, it’s black humour taken to a mad level.  This film is banned from viewing in Russia – Stalin has always been Putin’s great hero! Doors open 7.30 for 8pm and the bar will be open for refreshments before and after the film. Guest tickets available at £5-00 per film for adults and £3 for kids. Contact Carole on 01298 871 451 to book guest tickets in advance and as ever, there’s a warm welcome for old and new members and guests.

Marshalls
Thank you everyone who helped us last year to marshal, as any local already knows, wakes week simply can’t happen without without a team of willing and reliable volunteers who help us to put on fun, enjoyable but above all safe events. One of the key volunteers roles is that of a marshal. Volunteer marshals are required for all the main events throughout the week that require a temporary road closure. Although we have a good number on the committee, not all of us can be used as marshals for each event.

Carnival Floats
We’re really hoping many of you have already caught the Tidza Wakes ‘bug’ and are planning house or street decorations, fancy dress costume or the theme of your float for the Carnival Parade! Our aim is to make Wakes enjoyable and fun but also safe for everyone involved or spectating, particularly the Carnival Parade on Saturday 30th June which relies on brightly decorated floats, fancy dress costumes, musical accompaniment and Bands to give it the WOW factor. But here comes the important bit…….with growing interest from people entering floats in the Carnival, the Committee needs everyone entering a float to register before 5 pm on Friday 29th June. Then we can pre-plan the procession, reduce waiting and make sure the procession showcases both floats and Bands. It may not be possible to include floats in the Parade that have not registered in advance. When you register we will need basic details such as the type of vehicle, the theme, whether it will have music playing on the float and insurance. We cannot insure vehicle owners against a motor accident that occurs during the Parade, whilst a motor accident is an unlikely event and our insurance covers all other types of accidents or damage, we need you to inform your vehicle insurer that you intend to use the vehicle as a float so you have the correct cover on Carnival Day. If this is unwelcome news, please, please DON’T abandon your plans but DO get in contact with the Committee to discuss your concerns, we can’t solve every issue but would like the opportunity to try! To register your float, please contact Andrew on andrew [at] tideswellwakes [dot] info or see any member of the team before 5 pm on Friday 29th June.

Marshalls
Thank you everyone who helped us last year to marshal, as any local already knows, wakes week simply can’t happen without without a team of willing and reliable volunteers who help us to put on fun, enjoyable but above all safe events. One of the key volunteers roles is that of a marshal. Volunteer marshals are required for all the main events throughout the week that require a temporary road closure. Although we have a good number on the committee, not all of us can be used as marshals for each event. As a volunteer marshal we ask for a couple of hours of your time to help us runt the events and keep it safe for everyone taking part. You will be fully briefed before each event by the head marshal and key personnel supervising the event, you will be two way radio contact with two way radios, if you need assistance is needed it can be summoned quickly, as a volunteer marshal you will be given a hi vis jacket so you can be identified and reinforce your role as a key member of the safety team. Due to the nature of the role we can only accept people aged 18 years and over, if you are nearly 18 years of age and would like to help as a marshal please speak to a member of the wakes committee
If you are willing to put your name forward for one or more events please email myself at jobot79 [at] icloud [dot] com or phone 07730043646 by 15th May. In addition, if you know of anyone who also may be willing to help us, please pass on this email.

Local news... Tidza Ramblers

Tidza Ramblers After a spell of bad weather we weren’t certain whether Cressbrook band would be playing on Friday Rock but fortunately the day dawned fine. An anxious moment occurred soon after setting off towards Tideswell Dale when one of us, already with a broken wrist, slipped in thick mud but luckily no further damage was done. Having dallied too long over a coffee break in the picnic area by Litton Mill we hadn’t left enough time to get to the village before the band began at noon but in the event this proved to our benefit. It is a trudge up the hill to the green but on this occasion the strains of Stand Up ! stand up for Jesus made dawdling impossible. ‘ The music floats down from high ‘ describes perfectly this unique experience. ( Not my words but likely those of a Cressbrook resident or band member. ) The array of hot homemade food in the club afterwards is always mouthwatering. Cakes were equally tempting and the fruit crumble was delicious. We were able to fully appreciate our surroundings on one of the first reasonable days of the year. We smiled at the sight of a lamb sitting most comfortably on its mother’s back on the stroll back from Litton. Helen Royle.

Local news... Christian Aid

The Big Brekkie Join us for a sumptuous breakfast in St John’s Institute on Saturday 12th May, 10 a.m. to 11.30 a.m. No need to book, just turn up for bacon butties, croissants, cereals, yoghurts, cake and much much more. This is our village launch of Christian Aid Week, and has returned by popular demand! All donations will be added to our street collection total, which last year raised nearly £2,800 to help work in some of the world’s poorest communities.
The Christian Aid red envelope should appear through your letter box soon after that, and local volunteers will arrive later to see if you would like to contribute something to this year’s appeal. The focus for 2018 is the aftermath of the earthquake and hurricane that have devastated life in recent years in Haiti, with recovery work still ongoing. It is long out of our news, but people are still rebuilding their ruined lives. What is encouraging is that the homes that Christian Aid helped to construct after the earthquake withstood the power of the hurricane, when other buildings crumbled. One Haitian woman, Vilia, whose home survived was able to give shelter to over fifty of her neighbours. She is incredibly grateful for the help she has received from Christian Aid supporters, but she knows that many in her neighbourhood are struggling. The theme of the Week is ‘TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER THAN THE STORMS’. Storms, of all kinds, can be devastating, but working together can make all the difference. Putting something in that red envelope is part of that. Please consider what you are able to do. Margaret and Vic Filer Village organisers for Christian Aid Week

Local news... Film night Tideswell Cinema

FILM NIGHT IN TIDESWELL Come along to Tideswell Cinema at the George on Thursday 24th May to see a film described as “one of the best things Hollywood has done since it learned to talk!” There you will see the 1948 treasure hunt classic, ‘Treasure of the Sierra Madre’. Directed by John Huston and starring Humphrey Bogart, it is the story of a down and out American dreaming of his fortune. But when gold is eventually found the real problems begin, threatening to turn success into disaster. The film won three Oscars including Best Director, and is thought to be one of John Huston’s best films. The showing starts at 7.30 p.m., and guests are welcome to join our members, for £4. (Note: for those who have a copy of our film programme, please note that our August film, ‘Life of Brian’, will be shown a night early, on Wednesday 29th, due to a clash with a Live Screening.)
