Expert nurseryman, Adrian

“Chives and basil are both easy to

start growing bigger things.
“Put them in pots and grow
them inside on a sunny windowsill

A
new boat compound
has recently opened
in Bridlington.
Set between the private boat
club and the Royal Yorkshire
Yacht Club’s site at Wilsthorpe,
the new facility is the first part
of the Bridlington Integrated
Transport Plan.
The compound can
accommodate more than 200
small boats, jet skis and other
sailing craft.
It is a self-contained and
secure site, with its own launch
Council meets financial targets
GOOD financial management
over the last year has ensured
that the council remains in a
sound position for the future,
despite the banking crisis and
turbulence on the international
money markets resulting in
economic recession across many
parts of the world.
Last month, the council cabinet
endorsed a report on the ‘treasury
management’ function, which

floodlighting and a CCTV system.
Completion of the compound
is a major step towards enabling
the construction of the park and
ride element of the Bridlington
Integrated Transport Plan which
is now due for completion in
Spring 2010.
Councillor Stephen Parnaby,
OBE, leader of East Riding of

new facility is a real boost to
Bridlington and the surrounding
area.

of risks associated with these
activities.

obligations for investment and

investments, and has not needed
to use temporary borrowing

“The transport plan is
an important part of the
regeneration programme to
revitalise Bridlington and
bring greater opportunity and
prosperity to the town.
“As a result of the plan, the
resort will benefit from better
access routes which will help
resolve some long-standing
traffic congestion problems.”
Other elements of the plan,
which has attracted £5.7m of
funding from the Department
for Transport, are also moving
forward and the main highway
improvement works will mostly
be undertaken from now to
March 2010, outside the peak
holiday season, to reduce any

cash flow deficits. Treasury
management has also protected
the council from market-related
risks through the proactive
monitoring of interest rates,
economic opinions, and UK and
overseas government finances.
The council was not affected
by the widely publicised collapse
of various Icelandic banks as it
had no investments with them.
The new park and ride facility on the
existing South Cliff car park will provide
secure parking for up to 1,000 vehicles
including 50 disabled spaces.
Changes to roundabouts and a new
electronic car parking monitoring and
signage system are also planned.
The site of the former boat compound
will now form part of the park and ride
and an extension to the nearby caravan

Affordable
housing gives
economic
cash boost
THE East Riding economy is set to
benefit from a £33m cash injection
following the success of the
council’s £16.5m bid to the Homes
and Communities Agency for new
affordable housing. The funding will
be matched by the council’s own
contribution.
The resulting house building
programme will be the largest
construction project ever undertaken
by the council with the majority of work
being undertaken by local contractors.
Councillor Steve Parnaby OBE, leader
of the council, said: “This is fantastic
news for the East Riding and a wonderful
stimulus for the local economy. The
£33m programme has to be delivered
over a 12-month period and it is my
intention that the majority of work will
go to local contractors.
“These houses represent a new
generation of affordable housing for
the 21st century, combining high quality
design with environmental sustainability.
“The council team has done a fantastic
job in putting the bid together and
managing to attract 11 per cent of the
total funding available nationally for this
scheme.”
The house building programme is
due to start in March 2010 and has to
be delivered within a 12-month period.
The programme, which will see 275 new
homes built, will involve a number of
small scale developments across the East
Riding with an emphasis on high quality
design combined with environmental
sustainability.
As yet, no decisions on specific sites
have been made. These will be subject to
consultation and the planning process.

„ LEADING LINES
LEADER OF THE COUNCIL
COUNCILLOR STEPHEN PARNABY OBE
IT was fantastic to see the clipper
yachts set off from the Hull Marina on
their world race, lead by the Hull and
Humber boat. They will visit many venues
and doubtlessly face some hostile and
treacherous conditions on their journey.
The event put the City of Hull and the
region on the world stage and received
tremendous support from people across
the area and beyond with estimates
of crowds approaching 100,000. The
Regional Development Agency,Yorkshire
Forward, has put a large amount of public
funding into sponsoring the race with the
rationale of raising this area’s profile and
benefiting business links throughout the
world. Certainly the countries visited
will have similar welcomes to the one
received in Hull and will be watched on
TV by a worldwide audience. Visit Hull and
East Yorkshire (VHEY), the joint tourism
organisation of Hull City and this Council,
played a co-ordination role along with
several other partners and the involvement
of other local authorities. The City of Hull
put on the Freedom Festival to coincide
with the weekend and clearly those
visiting had a truly wonderful experience.
My congratulations to all involved and it
proves that this area has a lot to be proud
of and can compete with the best. I look
forward to the return of the yachts in
2010 for another Yorkshire welcome and,
with a good wind, as the sailors would say,
hopefully Hull and Humber taking first
place.
Continuing on the theme of major events,
Hull City AFC have joined forces with the
City Council, Hull Forward, and ourselves,
along with other partners including Hull
University,Yorkshire Forward, and VHEY,
to put in a bid to stage games for the
2018 World Cup at the KC Stadium. The
Football Association (FA) are bidding
to host the Cup and seeking bids from
grounds and cities to host the games.
There will be hurdles to overcome but
feedback from the inspections by the FA
who have been very impressed by the case
put forward, have been positive. Clearly if
successful, the event will not just be about
football matches and will include the fan
fests and several other attractions and
events. Ideally placed to attract visiting
fans from Europe, the superb setting of
the KC Stadium and the many attributes
the area can offer lead me to believe that
there is a real chance of pulling it off. What
a tremendous boost that would be, the
massive benefits to the local economy, the
thousands of visitors and beamed via TV
to a worldwide audience. It’s certainly a
chance to heighten our profile, our self-
esteem, and, once again, show we are a
world class events venue. You can show
your support by registering online at www.
hull2018bid.co.uk. Back the bid – it has just
got to be a fantastic opportunity.

„ UNDER REVIEW: All types of cardboard can be
recycled at the household waste recycling sites
Recycling cardboard in the East Riding
Your recycling calendar states “x No Thanks to
cardboard”.
However I have seen on cornflake packets the
words “This packet is recyclable”.
I should be pleased if someone will define what
constitutes the word ‘cardboard’.
Do you mean the thinner cardboard boxes
in which cornflakes and or cakes bought at
the supermarket or confectioner or the Stiff
unbendable cardboard in which large electrical and
other such goods are supplied? Or both.
Your advice on this matter would be welcome.
Mr E E Griffin
I hope you will do me the courtesy of
acknowledging this letter and that a reply to my
original letter will be included.
Mr MJ Morton, Welton
Dear Mr Morton
Thank you for your comments received regarding
the traffic calming measures in Welton.
The traffic calming measures installed in 2000 were
as a direct result of speed tests carried out through
the village section and personal injury accidents
occurring there and also in the vicinity of South
Hunsley School.
It was also felt at the time that there was an
element of traffic using the village route as short cut
to and from the A63, rather than using the signals
in place at the Melton crossroads to gain access to
the A63. It was hoped that the presence of physical
calming measures would discourage that practice and
preserve the village environment.
Prior to the works commencing on site there
was an extensive public consultation process, with a
residents postal consultation and a public display in
the village hall detailing the proposals with Council
officers in attendance to answer questions. The
response at that time from both the public and Parish
Council was very supportive of the proposals and
so they went ahead with some minor amendments
resulting from comments received during the
consultation.
The calming features installed all comply with
the relevant legislation on height and size and were
designed to be bus friendly, to ensure that the bus
routes through Welton would remain in service.
Drivers in cars should also be able to negotiate these
speed cushions without damaging their vehicles,
providing they do so at an appropriate speed.
Regarding the use of speed reactive signs, although
they are a useful tool in drawing drivers attention to
excessive or inappropriate speed, used in isolation
they are not effective for speed prevention where a

Dear Mr Griffin
We cannot accept cardboard in the blue bins
because there are no facilities at our material
recycling facility at Carnaby to separate it from
paper.
To collect cardboard in the blue bins requires
changes to our collection rounds and facilities with
all the attendant costs and environmental issues.
This, however, is something we keep under review
as we plan to further increase recycling.
All types of cardboard can be recycled at our ten
household recycling sites.
John Skidmore, head of streetscene services
quantifiable accident problem exists, as was the case
prior to the installation of the calming measures in
Welton.
The removal of the calming features in Welton
could reintroduce all of the problems now absent
from Welton as a result of their introduction nearly
10 years ago.
Carl Skelton, divisional manager
Recycling in the streets
We are regularly reminded of the East Riding’s
target for recycling - Target 45. We are all well aware
of the importance of recycling and are doing as much
as we can. We now use our compost bins, blue and
brown bins as well as taking our glass to the drop off
points and regularly find only a minimal amount of
rubbish in our green bin.
On two recent holidays I have felt that East Riding
(and the UK) is missing a very large, and important
area where recycling could occur, the streets. I would
be interested to know what percentage of waste
going to landfill is from the waste bins in every
street of the county? In both Canada and Germany,
whenever there is a bin, there are actually three. One
for waste to landfill, one for paper and one for cans
and bottles etc. I appreciate that there is a risk of
contamination and that education would be needed,
but feel that the quantity recycled, would be worth
the cost to the council.
Come on East Riding, lead the way in the UK with
street recycling.
M Sinclair, Beverley
Dear Sir or Madam
We have recycling bins along the foreshores at
Bridlington, Hornsea and Withernsea.
Regrettably we have problems of contamination
with materials, like used nappies, being put in with
recyclables. We have highlighted this issue and
appealed for the bins to be used correctly.
We continue to consider ways to improve
recycling and this includes the possibility of
providing recycling bins in the town centres.
We are not able to provide you with percentages
for street bins as the waste is not treated separately.
John Skidmore, head of streetscene services
School specialist status
I was appalled when reading your article in the
September issue of the East Riding News which
complimented all schools in the East Riding for
gaining specialist status with the resulting extra
funding helping their progress.
Extra funding, very good!
But some questions need to be answered:
Who and what decides the specialism?
What are the specialist subjects for each school?
Do all parents know what the specialist subjects are
for every school in the East Riding?
Of greater important, is there assistance for a student
to attend a school, whatever the distance, having a
specialism different from the one or ones in their
catchment area?
Why are students so young being guided towards a
specialism possibly wide of their aptitude and ability?
AL Maynard, Holme on Spalding Moor
Dear Sir or Madam
Thank you for your letter in response to the news
that all East Riding Schools have specialist status.
As you suggest it is good news that the additional
funding is now coming to all schools in the East
Riding.
The specialism of each school was decided by the
schools themselves in line with a particular strength
or a particular desire to develop an area of the
curriculum. The East Riding mapped the subjects and
sought to ensure that the pattern of specialisms was
equitably spread across the county. The specialisms
of each school are shown in the chart below:
Beverley Grammar Engineering
Beverley High Technology
Bridlington SSC Sport
Cottingham Media Arts
Driffield Maths & ICT
Headlands Science and Mathematics
Hessle Science
Hornsea Languages
Howden Technology
Longcroft Performing Arts
South Holderness Technology
South Hunsley Engineering Technology
The Market Weighton Mathematics and Computing
The Snaith Business and Enterprise
Vermuyden Mathematics and Computing
Withernsea
Woldgate
Technology
Performing Arts
Wolfreton Languages
As you will see the range and spread of subjects
is impressive. The information about each school is
available on their website and the school prospectus
which they issue to prospective pupils.
There is currently no financial support to address
the issue of transporting children to different schools
to meet their specialist needs. The policy of the East
Riding is still that the catchment school with its
social network of children’s peers from village, street
and primary school is the best place for them to be.
Specialist schools have to deliver a broad and
balanced curriculum, in line with the national
curriculum and for many children the particular
specialism might not impact on them greatly, it is
not about restricting the curriculum but enhancing a
particular part of it.
As you will see the specialisms can be quite
broadly defined and indeed many of our schools have
been given second specialisms. Specialist status does
not predetermine the career choices nor the subject
pathways a child will take and all of our secondary
schools have a comprehensive offer through to the
end of compulsory education and into the sixth
form.
I hope that answers the questions you raise
and like us you can celebrate a really impressive
achievement for East Riding Schools!

A
n East Riding
resident has urged
others in the region
to take full advantage of a
partnership scheme, which
is offering the chance for
people in areas with no
mains gas to have a new
heating system installed.
Mr Vic Parkes, who lives in
the village of Lowthorpe, near
Driffield, is the latest to benefit
from an ongoing project between
East Riding of Yorkshire
Council and community interest
company, Community Energy
Solutions (CES).

Make sure you’re registered to vote
To vote in an election, your

a canvass of all households is
undertaken and a registration
form delivered to each one.
You must complete and return
that form in order to be able
to vote.
The form asks for
information about who is or
will be living in that property

towards the cost of the heating
systems, which can be up to the
full amount.
Mr Parkes said: “My wife
and I had been thinking about
updating our old storage heating
as, frankly, it was expensive and
useless. So when we received
some information through the
door we decided to find out
more.
“I was amazed when we
found out that, as we were
almost at retirement age, we
would get the full cost of the
installation covered. I would
urge anyone thinking about
having new heating installed to
take full advantage and get in
touch with CES now.”

information. They will have
formal identification.
Elections, especially
parliamentary elections, can
be called with as little as 17
working days notice, which can
make it hard for some residents
to find time to register then.
As a parliamentary election is
due by June 2010, why not sort
out registration now?

Consultation AREA AGREEMENT
Update
This column is to tell you, our
residents, what consultations are
taking place, how you can take part,
and what happens once they are
complete. By consulting and engaging
with residents, we can make sure that
all of their views are heard.

The Citizens’ Panel

This month we have been recruiting for our
brand new citizens’ panel, a joint initiative
between NHS East Riding of Yorkshire
and East Riding of Yorkshire Council. The
citizens’ panel is a group of 2000 residents
of the East Riding of Yorkshire who will
participate in regular consultations and
be given the opportunity to contribute
to focus groups and workshops. These
consultations will give valuable feedback on
our services and will help inform decision
making and future planning, which can make
a real difference in your local area.
The panel will be representative of the
population of the East Riding as a whole
so that consultation outcomes reflect the
views of residents. Panel membership will
be refreshed every three years so that as
many residents as possible get their chance
to participate.
Consultations will be in the form of postal
or online surveys every quarter, and
feedback will be given through regular
newsletters. Panel members will also be
invited to take part in focus groups and
workshops. Consultation will be on a
variety of subjects from education and
transport to mental health and GP services.
The very first survey will be reaching our
members in the next few weeks. „ ECO-FAMILY: Mrs Renee Miller-Smith with, left, Loula and Lucas

FREE SEEDS
HELP CREATE A SUSTAINABLE KITCHEN BY GROWING YOUR OWN HERBS
FOR THE FIRST
1,000 READERS

The offer of free seeds is a further
initiative by East Riding of Yorkshire
Council to help residents reduce the
amount of wasted food.
Currently, every green bin in the
East Riding contains on average about
2.5kg of food waste that is thrown
away and goes straight to landfill.
This is equivalent to six large tins
of baked beans or nearly three bags
of sugar or 25 Mars Bars.
The council, through its community
and sustainable development service,
supports the Government’s Love
Food Hate Waste campaign.
The first 1,000 packets will include
easy-growing chives and basil. The
seeds are by Mr Fothergill’s, the UK’s
leading seed company.
In March, the council will give away
tomato and lettuce seeds and in July
seeds for carrots and salad leaves.
Details about these offers will be
printed in East Riding News nearer
the time.

Food Hate Waste, visit

Dealing with the effects of Swine Flu

Be prepared
MOST cases of swine flu are relatively
mild so far, but we want to be prepared
if there is a more serious wave later.
Healthier people will have a lower
risk of infection, and if they do catch it,
their recovery time is likely to be much
shorter.
Those who smoke are more likely
to suffer complications such as chest
infections and bronchial problems. The
Hull & East Riding NHS Stop Smoking
Support Service can be contacted free
on 0800 915 5959.
Drinking sensibly and eating healthy
foods will help to boost your immune
system.
Slowing the spread of swine flu can
be helped by washing hands with soap
and water, and using tissues to cover
your mouth and nose when you cough
or sneeze, and putting the tissue in a
bin.

Following a public consultation
carried out with local residents,
it was identied that the
existing play areas in Hessle
were old and needed updating
although they were well used.
East Riding of Yorkshire
Council, Ward members Tress,
Davison and Jefferies, Hessle
Town Council and the police
community support ofcer
have held various meetings to
discuss the designs and funding.
KGV Recreation Ground
This recreation ground has had
a new play area installed in May
2009, funded by East Riding of
Yorkshire Council, which offers
equipment for toddlers and
young children.
Following on-site consultation
with the detached youth
workers and the police
community support ofcers,
young people were asked
to look at designs of youth
equipment. The Blox and a
youth shelter were requested
and installed. The youth shelter,
which was nanced through
the Big Lottery Fund, will
also double up as a spectator
shelter for sporting events.
The Multi-Use Games Area
with lighting was funded by
commuted sums. East Riding
of Yorkshire Council requires
developers to provide outdoor
playing space as part of all new
residential developments above
certain size thresholds. When
a developer cannot provide this
within the development itself,
a sum of money known as a
‘commuted sum’ is paid in lieu
of the facility which must be
spent on outdoor playing space.
The Multi-Use Games Area
including the lighting is managed
and maintained by Hessle Town
EAST RIDING NEWS OCTOBER 2009 11
Council in partnership with
Hessle Sporting Club.
First Lane
A sports wall was installed
some time ago and again well
used by the young people.
Following on site consultation
with the detached youth
worker and the young people
low football goals and two
items of youth equipment were
requested and installed.
War Memorial Park,
Tower Hill
This play area was completely War Memorial Park, Tower Hill
transformed with equipment
targeted at toddlers to young
children, following public
consultation both on site
and with children at the local
schools. The project was
funded by Play Pathnder
which is money from the DCSF
and East Riding of Yorkshire
Council. This site is very
successful with many local
children visiting the area and
using the equipment.
Tranby Park
Some items of equipment
in this play area were past
their useful life and so were KGV Recreation Ground First Lane
replaced. However following
the installation of the new
equipment, local residents
contacted the council and
expressed their concerns
about the lack of provision for
toddlers. Again a consultation
was carried out on-site and the
toddlers chose a multi- unit
with a slide, which has recently
been installed.
For further information on
maintenance of the play areas,

IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF RESIDENTS IN THE EAST RIDING
Keep it clean
FACT: Up to half
of all men and a
quarter of women
fail to wash their
hands after they
have been to the
toilet. The most
common way germs
are spread is by people’s hands. Germs are
often harmless but they can also cause illnesses
such as colds, u and tummy bugs. Hand
washing is the best way to avoid colds, u and
other viruses. Regularly washing your hands
with soap and water is the most effective way
to reduce the spread of infections and help
protect you, your family and those around you.
Help to keep infection down – give soap a
chance. www.wash-hands.com
Preventing strokes
Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a condition where
the heart has an irregular beat; a quiver
rather than the usual coordinated rhythm.
This condition is easily detected through
checking a patient’s pulse and seeing
whether there is any irregularity. Whilst AF, in
itself, is not generally life threatening, people
who have the condition are at an increased
risk of suffering from stroke, with the risk of
this increasing the older you are.
NHS East Riding of Yorkshire is introducing
a number of schemes to pre-emptively identify
patients that may have the condition but who
may not be aware of it. Patients aged over
65 will be invited to attend a pulse screening
service, or may be offered the test during
their routine u vaccination visit, to check
their pulse. This will help identify patients that
may be suffering from the condition, enabling
treatment to start a lot earlier and reducing
the likelihood of having a stroke and the
associated risks associated with this.
GP Dr Richard Little from Practice 1, at
the Medical Centre in Bridlington says “It
only takes a minute or so to perform a pulse
check and we only expect to identify a small
proportion of patients that may have an
undiagnosed AF. However the benets of this
scheme are clear. The earlier the detection, the
earlier we can manage the condition and the
greater the chances are that we can prevent a
potential stroke”.
New respiratory team launched
A new Community Respiratory Team
(CRT) will be launched in November
focusing on improving the health and
wellbeing of the several thousand
East Riding residents with Chronic
Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(COPD) patients.
Led by Edwina English, Respiratory
Nurse Consultant, the team will
include ve community respiratory
specialist nurses, specialist dietician,
clinical specialist physiotherapist and
rehabilitation support.
Initially, the team will work closely
with local COPD patients with
the most severe complications and
greatest risk of repeated admission
to hospital. The aim is to help them
Tips to help you beat the blues...
We all have times when we feel down
or stressed or frightened. Most of those
feelings pass, but sometimes they develop
into a more serious problem and that could
happen to any one of us. Here are some
tips to keeping mentally healthy:
• Talk about your feelings. Talk to
family, friends and colleagues; express
your feelings and concerns.
• Keep active. Physical activity stimulates
production of endorphins, the body’s
natural antidepressants. It will make you
feel energised and positive.
• Eat well. A healthy diet that is good for
your physical health is also good for your
mental health.
• Drink sensibly. Excessive drinking
is ineffective and an expensive way to
deal with difcult feelings. The effects
of alcohol on mood are short-lived and
when the drinks wear off, you will feel
worse.

THE DAM BUSTERS by
Paul Brickhill (Pan: £9.99) This
massive bestseller is the lead title
in a number of re-issues under
the umbrella of Pan Military
Classics series which have been
re-launched to commemorate
the outbreak of World War II
70 years ago. The book tells
the story of how the Lancaster
Bombers of 617 Squadron
breached the giant Moehne
and Eder Dams with Barnes
Wallis’ Bouncing Bombs to deal
a devastating blow to Hitler’s
Germany. The Pan edition was
first published in 1954 and was
their first million-copy seller.
The film was premiered in
1955 when Richard Todd gave
a distinguished performance
as Wing-Commander Guy
Gibson. Seven pages of black
and white photographs include
all the wartime leaders of the
Dam Busters’ squadron. The Pan
Military Classic series continues
with COLDITZ by P R Reid
£9.99). This wonderful wartime
account records how prisoners
from all walks of life - Belgian,
Czech, Dutch, French, German
and Polish as well as those from
the British Commonwealth and
USA - were incarcerated in this
German castle. There were
more than 300 escape attempts
at Colditz including Reid’s tale
of his own, which is one of the
classics of Twentieth Century
literature.
