Gedney Marsh production director for J E Piccaver & Co Phillip Hubbert is to play a key role in increasing the consumption of leafy salads.

Phillip has been selected to be an ambassador for a national campaign by the British Leafy Salads Association (BLSA).

As part of the campaign, Phillip stars in a video (www.makemoreofsalad.com) which showcases how farmers care for the land and environment while growing lettuce and salad leaves.

Shot at Norfolk House Farm, the video shows the different techniques used to create natural wildlife habitats for marsh harriers, grey partidge, tree sparrows as well as wild orchids.

Phillip said: “People want to understand more about where their food comes from and how it is grown. We’re on a mission to inspire people to make more of this versatile ingredient and to help people have a better understanding about the role of farmers. Taking care of the natural environment is vital for us as we rely on the land.”

UKIP county councillor Alan Jesson is spearheading a campaign for conkers to return to school playgrounds.

Coun Jesson believes schools have banned the tradition on health and safety grounds, but says county council health and safety experts support conkers and have told him it can be played in playgrounds.

The Spalding South ward councillor says health and safety officers are trying to get across the message that it’s okay for kids to play conkers and climb trees in schools, but it would be up to teachers to assess the risks.

He’s now going to speak to schools in his ward.

Coun Jesson said: “We all know what the risks are playing conkers, sometimes it flies out of your hand.

“I understand that no schools play conkers for health and safety reasons and this is the kind of thing I am going to go into schools and find out.

“It’s encouraging kids to be kids and stop wrapping them in cotton wool.

“I think it’s great idea to get this great British tradition into the playground and give children the chance to play conkers.”

He hopes there can be a Lincolnshire schools’ conkers championships with the winners playing at the world championships in Oundle.

Adults looking to study further education at Boston College are now entitled to an ‘Advanced Learning Loan’ which will see them being able to access funds to support learning for the first time.

The Government has introduced the new loan this year to provide a means for anyone over the age of 24 to be able to study and improve their qualifications if they wish to.

This means adults are now able to re-enter education and improve their employment and earning opportunities.

It’s easy to apply – household income isn’t taken into account and there is no credit check.

Repayments for the loan will only start being paid once the adult is earning over £21,000 per year and the amount paid back each year is dependent on the wage earned over this amount and not how much the course costs.

For example, repayments would be nine per cent of the total income over £21,000, so a student that goes on to earn £25,000 per year would pay nine per centof £4,000 which is just £30 a month – a surprisingly manageable amount in return for an educational and career investment.

This loan could even be completely written off if the adult continues to Higher Education (University level courses).

If a student takes out a further education loan to allow them to study an Access to Higher Education course, the Students Loan Company will completely write off the loans once the subsequent higher education course has been completed.

Boston College offer a variety of adult courses that, if completed successfully, can help learners to achieve better prospects for future employment.

The access courses in particular are very popular amongst adult learners who are hoping to progress into disciplines such as nursing, teaching and social work.

The loans are available to learners enrolling on selected courses at Level 3 or higher at Boston College, across a variety of subject areas including: Access to Higher Education, Accounting, Beauty Therapy, Business and Administration, Catering and Hospitality, Childcare, Hairdressing, Health and Social Care, Sport and Teaching.

For more information about the courses and opportunities available for adults at Boston College, visit the ‘Adult Learners’ section on at www.boston.ac.uk or if you would prefer to speak to someone call the information line on 01205 313218.

Problems experienced by some sugar beet growers is no mystery, according to the British Beet Research Organisation (BBRO).

The BBC described the problem as “mystery symptoms” which were causing erratic growth and, in some areas, crop failure.

However, BBRO spokesman Paul Bee said there was no mystery – the crop has been affected by the cold spring.

He said: “We are doing more investigations and trying to simulate the unusually cold growing conditions so we can have more information. At the moment we can’t see anything to do with disease. It’s a growth issue in one of the coldest springs we have seen.”

Sixth form students from Spalding High School raised a staggering £1,124 for Spalding’s Southernwood House, a residential home for the elderly.

Alex Lott and Felicity Monger, who jointly chair the school’s charity committee, said they wanted to do something to enhance the daily lives of residents and the money will help towards the development of a sensory garden.

They raised funds by organising cake stalls, a non-uniform day and by selling sweets to primary school children who visited the high school to watch its pantomime, Peter Panto.

A new group has been formed in Spalding to support patients who have suffered a stroke.

The group has its first meeting on Friday between 12pm-2pm at Johnson Community Hospital.

It has the backing of The Stroke Association and is open to families of sufferers as well as stroke victims.

A former stroke patient, who asked not to be named, said: “If anybody has had a stroke, there is not a lot of support in Spalding or Lincolnshire.

“We just want to offer some support and get people connecting with one another.”

• Each year in England more than 150,000 people suffer a stroke and it’s the third largest cause of death.

Chris and Margaret Styles, of Style Roses at Holbeach, are preparing their exhibit for the BBC Gardeners’ World Live exhibition at Birmingham.

The couple are showing within the RHS Plant Village at the show, where they are being challenged to create a display in inspirational ways.

The show is being held at the NEC Birmingham from Wednesday to Sunday, June 12-16.

Poor weather has contributed to UK farming becoming more profitable but less productive, according to new statistics.

Defra figures show that farms in March were more profitable, but that productivity fell to an eight-year low in 2012.

Police are hunting a man with a London accent in connection with an incident where a girl was followed by a driver naked from the waist down.

It happened near Spalding Cemetery in Pinchbeck Road on Sunday between 10am and 10.30am when a Ford Focus driver pulled alongside a 14-year-old girl and lowered the window.
Spalding community policing inspector Jim Tyner said: “Detectives are still investigating this incident and I can confirm that the man we are looking for has been described as speaking with a London accent.

“We are still anxious to hear from anyone who saw a blue Ford Focus that may have travelled some distance on the wrong side of the road and crossed the traffic lights at Woolram Wygate.”

Anyone with information should call DS Lane Morgan at Spalding CID on 101, extension 2635, quoting incident number 162 of May 19.

A Spalding man has been jailed for 19 years for a string of sex offences against young girls, including several counts of rape.

Mark Cutts (46), of Carrington Road, was found guilty of 16 offences after a trial at Nottingham Crown Court.

Speaking after the case, a senior police officer praised the young victims who gave evidence at his trial.

Det Chief Insp Louise Jordan said: “He did not plead guilty so he made the victims go through a trial and they have shown immense bravery in coming forward and then seeing the case through.”

The offences were committed in Nottingham.

The judge added an extended licence of eight years to begin when Cutts finishes his 19 year sentence. He was also ordered to sign the sex offenders’ register for life.

Police woke a sleeping lorry driver in his cab who was “completely unaware” men were siphoning diesel from his tank in a layby on the A17.

Officers spotted a Peugeot parked behind the lorry at Long Sutton on August 14.

It smelled strongly of diesel, had a number of plastic containers inside and a pipe led from the car to the lorry’s fuel tank, Spalding magistrates heard.

About a third of the tank was siphoned, but no value for the fuel was given to the court.

Jim Clare, prosecuting, said no-one was with the Peugeot but Evaldas Zbormirskiz was parked up in a green VW Passat a little further up the road.

Mr Clare said Zbormirskiz drove off but then passed the lorry again, causing the officers to be somewhat suspicious.

His car was stopped and he had a number of 25 litre plastic containers matching those inside the Peugeot.

Police went to the home of the Peugeot’s registered keeper – Marius Dailedenas – and found more of the plastic containers.

Mr Clare said both men denied knowledge of the incident and claimed they didn’t know each other.

But a check on their mobile phones showed each man had the other’s phone number although no calls had been made.

Zbormirskiz (39), of Seagate Terrace, Long Sutton, denied stealing fuel belonging to Peter Harper and Sons, but was convicted last month after a trial.

At Thursday’s resumed hearing, he was sentenced to a six-month community order with 80 hours’ unpaid work.

He must also pay £300 costs.

The court heard Zbormirskiz maintained he was innocent of the theft and was going to appeal against his conviction.

Mr Clare told the court his co-defendant may have flown back to his home country.

Solicitor Mark Hudson, mitigating, said: “Mr Zbormirskiz has maintained his innocence during interview and during his trial.”

Mr Hudson said the evidence against him was circumstantial, but the magistrates’ colleagues had put all the circumstances together and decided he must be guilty.

Zbormirskiz was parked further up than the lorry and there were containers in his car “similar to those that were in the Peugeot”.

Mr Hudson said the evidence showed there was no telephone contact between Zbormirskiz and other man.

Probation officer Angela Jones told the court: “This matter does go back to August last year so clearly he is not someone who has troubled the court on a regular basis.”

A new seven-turbine wind farm is now up and running and generating power for thousands of homes.

After a year-long construction phase which started in January 2012, the components for the 127m-high turbines were delivered to the Grange Wind Farm, between Tydd St Mary and Long Sutton in March.

For the past month the turbines have been in the commissioning and testing phase.

Development owner and operator RES has now announced that the 14MW wind farm is completed and capable of generating enough clean, green renewable electricity to meet the average needs of 10,000 homes.

Gordon MacDougall, RES UK and Ireland chief operating officer, said: “I am delighted to welcome the project into RES’s growing portfolio of operating wind farms.

“The Grange Farm will make an important contribution to delivering the renewable electricity the UK needs in order to reduce our reliance on costly gas imports and cut carbon emissions.

“It also clearly demonstrates that onshore wind continues to have an important role to play in our energy mix and provides a secure, home-grown supply of electricity for British homes and businesses.”

He also said RES looks forward to continuing the links it has forged with people living near to the wind farm during the development and construction phases.

During the construction phase, RES supported local organisations in a number of ways, such as donating prizes for the local school raffle.

Now that the wind farm is fully operational, RES has set up a community benefit fund that will provide £28,000 every year for the lifetime of the wind farm for investment in local projects.

The fund is being administered by Lincolnshire Community Foundation, with decisions about where the money will be spent being taken by a panel made up of local people.

RES community relations co-ordinator Samantha Mayes said: “We would like to thank the local community around the Grange Wind Farm for their interest and support for the project.

“We are delighted that the wind farm has been completed on schedule and that the community benefit fund is now open to applications from local projects.”

Readers were so touched by our story of a three-year-old boy who could walk again with the help of an operation and therapy costing £20,000 that the Lincolnshire Free Press is launching an appeal to help him.

Joshua Holmes, of Gedney Drove End, has severe cerebral palsy and is soon to have a major operation to relieve stiffness in his legs.

When we called his mum, Aimee, to let her know £15 had been brought into the Free Press office towards the cost she was delighted.

She said: “Every little will help - we are so grateful to the people who have given.”

Joshua hasn’t been feeling too well recently but everything possible is being done to ease his pain.

Aimee said: “He was a very good boy when he had casting done for new splints.

“We also had a review of his wheelchair - the one he has is no longer supporting his deteriorating posture. He’s only had this chair for six months, so it shows how quickly his needs can change.

“Then he’s has a sickness bug and it hits him harder than us. We just want Joshua feeling back to his usual cheery self asap.”

It could be several months before Joshua is strong enough for the operation. Aimee said: “First he has to have a MRI test and a bladder test.

“We are also hoping to build up his strength with intensive physiotherapy and hydrotherapy.

“This is very expensive and not covered by the NHS which is why we need to raise funds.”

However, Aimee said the family is still overwhelmed by the support they received from readers last year to help fund a playhouse for Joshua.

She said: “Without this operation, he faces the possibility of many future operations on his feet, legs and hips.

“Last year, we were very lucky to receive help from your readers, and also Bakkavor, to help fund a playhouse. We are hoping they may be able to help us again.

“We all hate to see Joshua in pain from his spasms and the discomfort that the stiffness in his legs causes.

“It is hoped the operation will not only mean he is free from a lot of pain, but with the right therapy he will be able to use his walking frame, because right now his legs are too stiff to be able to learn to take a step.”

To support the fund, write a cheque to the Lincolnshire Free Press Children’s Fund and send it to our office in Priory House, The Crescent, Spalding, PE11 1AB, in an envelope marked Joshua’s Appeal.

Joshua’s progress can also be followed on Facebook at Joshua’s SDR journey.

Students from the Year 11 GCSE Citizenship group at Long Sutton’s Peele Community College had an insight into the House of Lords when local peer Lord Taylor of Holbeach visited to talk about his role in advising the Government and the importance of the Upper House in making laws.

The visit was extremely well received by the students who presented Lord Taylor with some challenging questions and it was great preparation for their forthcoming GCSE exam.

Undaunted by the state of music education in schools, Glenis Malkin started her own music school in a professionally-equipped studio at her home in Moulton.

One of her students, Charlotte Lincoln (16), has just passed her final Grade 8 cello exam with distinction. The Deepings School pupil has won a place to be a member of the Britten Sinfonia Academy.

To celebrate the school’s first year – and the success of its students – Glenis is holding a concert at Ayscoughfee Hall School in Spalding on Saturday, June 8 (7pm). Her students, cellists from the National Children’s Orchestra and Glenis’s own professional cello quartet, The Cello Company, will be performing.

She said: “My students have continued to achieve an impressive array of exam passes and played in one concert already this year.

“For them now to play alongside professional cellists is very exciting and encouraging and they gain a huge amount in terms of achievement, fun and self-esteem.”

Tickets for the concert are £6, available on the door or from Glenis on 01406 370059.

The Peugeot 2008 faces some tough opposition in the compact Crossover market.

With some very economical engines and subtle but handsome styling, it may well be in with a decent shout.

Despite its beefy looks, the 2008 is front-wheel drive only, but some off-road ability is delivered on pokier 1.6-litre petrol and diesel variants via a clever ‘Grip Control’ traction system. This comprises an intelligent traction control system and special Mud & Snow ‘All Weather’ tyres, a compromise between full winter tyres and usual summer rubber. It has five selectable operating modes which can be chosen by the driver from a dedicated control mounted on the centre console.

The engine line up will be familiar fare if you’re familiar with the 208 supermini. Base versions get a choice of either an 82bhp 1.2 VTi petrol or a 70bhp 1.4-litre HDi diesel.

Moving up the range, there’s a 120bhp 1.6-litre VTi petrol unit and either 92 or 115bhp versions of the 1.6-litre e-HDi diesel, an engine with Stop & Start and, in lower-powered form, offering the option of an EGC auto gearbox.

The 2008 features a higher driving position than the 208 and it’s longer too. At 4.16m, it’s fully 20cm longer than its supermini cousin and there’s a good deal more road presence to it as well with its pronounced wheel arches.

With 17-inch alloy wheels and Mud & Snow tyres, it looks quite purposeful but the ground clearance is decidedly modest so it doesn’t seem as if it’s trying to project an image it can’t live up to. You wouldn’t choose one to tackle the Rubicon Trail for example.

Peugeot is a company on the up right now. That might not seem instantly apparent from a brief glance at current UK sales figures but overall trends suggest that the firm has weathered the recessional storm. The introduction of the 208 has helped here and this 2008 compact crossover vehicle can only bolster that sales performance. It looks a solid product and has been competitively priced and specced for its intended market.

True, there are some seriously talented rivals in the Crossover segment right now, as well as others being honed by big manufacturers, so the 2008 has quite a task on if it’s to make its mark, a job you might not think would be helped by this car’s relative visual subtlety. But maybe there’s a significant group of potential buyers who’ll want just that from this kind of car.

If you’re one of them, then we’re guessing that you might like this design very much indeed.

Almost all the roof timbers are now in place at the £2million crematorium taking shape on the outskirts of Surfleet.

Two more roof sections will be hoisted into place by crane next week on the site just off the roundabout on the A152 link road.

Andrew Bowser, one of the developers behind the South Lincolnshire Crematorium, said: “It’s going well as you can see from the progress on site.”

Mr Bowser said the crematorium will open this year, but the planned “operational day” is not yet being made public because “there’s an awful lot of variables”.

Once the building is fully water tight, it’s expected the crematorium equipment will be received on site during July and work will kick into overdrive with all trades on site.

The landscaping is complete and the greenery includes 200 specimen trees – one of the biggest orders placed for mature trees in the east of England during 2012 – and 1.2km of native hedging.

A large, planted earth bank screens the front edge of the site to dampen traffic noise and make the area around the crematorium a more tranquil setting.

Mr Bowser said there are ten men working on site most days.

He said: “D Brown Builders of Moulton are the main contractors and we are working very successfully with them.”

South Holland currently has no crematorium and bereaved families face journeys of an hour or more, often in heavy traffic, to reach those in Boston, Grantham, Peterborough or King’s Lynn.

Features of the new building will include:

l an 80 seater chapel with a covered flower court

l a ten acre parkland setting

l a 2.5 acre wild flower meadow, providing an area of bio-diversity

Spalding’s Citroën approved service centre has applied for planning permission for a new car showroom.

The family-owned company has applied to convert an existing unit in Venture Court, Pinchbeck, to form a new dealership which would mirror the neighbouring Rylatt Ford premises.

“Having been the only Citroën authorised repairer in south Lincolnshire for the past year, we

have first-hand experience of the local interest in the Citroën brand,” says James Rylatt, director.

“Citroën has an exciting range of cars which have a loyal following and we are excited by the prospect of working with Citroën UK to explore the possibility of returning the new car franchise to the area”.

Rylatt & Sons was accredited as a Citroën authorised repairer in 2011 and offers the full range of scheduled services, Citroën fixed price repairs, MOTs, warranty repairs and safety recalls.

Around a million businesses across the UK are exposing themselves to serious financial risk through the absence of share protection insurance, according to a joint campaign launched by Legal & General and unbiased.co.uk.

The ‘Every Business Matters’ campaign has identified a growing UK business share protection gap of £683billion, a figure which has increased by 60 per cent from 2011, when it stood at over £427billion.

According to the study commissioned by Legal & General, 45 per cent of UK business owners expect the remaining owners to buy their share of the business in the event of their death. Yet despite this, only 40 per cent of businesses have taken out life cover to ensure the funds are available for such a purchase.

This has significant implications for smaller businesses which could find themselves exposed to serious financial and commercial risk in the event of one of their business owners dying, leaving the remaining owners concerned about the future control of the business.

Interestingly, when it comes to succession planning more than four out of five (81 per cent) Small and Medium Enterprise owners say they would like to pass on their company shares to specific beneficiaries in the event of them passing away, but almost half (44 per cent) are yet to put any legal instructions in place to ensure these wishes are honoured. Almost a further third (31 per cent) have a will in place but have failed to include instructions about their shares.

Further to this, while 56 per cent of businesses across the UK say they have reviewed their Partnership Agreements in the last year, and 59 per cent their Articles of Association, that means that almost half have not (44 per cent and 41 per cent respectively).

More worrying still, over a third (35 per cent) of businesses admit they have never reviewed their Partnership Agreements since the business was started, and a further third (33 per cent) their Articles of Association.

Should you wish to review your current business protection arrangements and therefore try to avoid the pitfalls above, then please get in touch.

The following decisions have been made recently by magistrates at court hearings. In all drink-drive cases the legal limit is 35 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath, 80 milligrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood or 107 milligrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of urine. Addresses of defendants published in these registers are taken from the legal records held by the magistrates’ courts. The details are given to the court by the defendant – but this may be some time after the original charge and they may have moved in the meantime.
