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.
