Spring Edition No 28 Autumn 2012
Dear Residents
I think it is Happy New Year to you all! It doesn’t feel like it at the moment with the wind whistling around the house, but I hope everyone has survived the deluge and gales with-out too much damage to property so far.
The Council has continued to progress various projects that I am sure you will have seen going on in the village. You will have noticed that The War Memorial is under scaffold so should be well on the way to completion by the time you read this. Jonny Anderson has been hard at work, matching the stone and carving a new cross to replace the old weather worn structure. The Playground Barrier is now complete (see photo opposite) but following the work the muddy area around the gateway into the play area, is still a problem but we intend to either seed or put down turf when the weather improves. So if you see barrier tape in the play area it is there to prevent people going on the newly seeded area.
Recently the Council have signed up to a Pre Application Community Involvement Protocol with Stroud District Council which means that developers will be required to consult with the local community at an early stage on any development and it will require them to take local opinions into account. They will have to develop properties that are both needed and wanted in the locality. Homeowners too, wishing to do work on their properties will also be advised to consult the Parish Council before submitting applications.
This work links closely with the Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP) being led by Chris King. This will involve the whole community providing feedback and ideas on how we want our neighbourhood to be in the future. Within the NDP the community, can describe how and where we would like to see any development within the Parish. If approved by the parish, it will become a legal document within the planning framework, so both SDC and any developer will have to take it into consideration. If you see NDP question-naires around please take a few minutes to take part. It is for YOUR parish’s future.
Finally… I hope you all survive this weather and we can all start looking forward to some spring time soon.

Parish Council
elections May
2014 Parish Elections will be taking place this May. Do you want to represent your community and become a parish councillor? Parish and Town Councils depend on local people taking an interest in what happens in their community, whatever their back-ground. Local people standing as council-lors can bring a wealth of knowledge and community understanding into the local team. To be a parish councillor you must satisfy the following criteria. You need to be:
Over 18 years of age
A British citizen, a qualifying Commonwealth citizen, or a citizen of any other member state of the Euro-pean Union
On the Electoral Register for the council area for which you wish to stand,
A local government elector of the parish; or a person who during the whole of the twelve months before nomination as a candidate occupied land or other premises as owner or tenant in the parish; or has, during the same period, resided in that area or within three miles thereof; or has during the same period, had a princi-pal or only place of work in that area.
If you are interested in becoming a councillor, or know someone who might just need some encouragement, please contact Helen the parish clerk who has further information. (See contact details on back page) .
The play area fencing and decking are now complete and it looks fantastic. It is hoped that the new fencing and deck-ing will be enjoyed by many and last for many years. You can now follow us on Facebook (search for Whiteshill and Ruscombe Parish Council and ‘like’ our page.) It is hoped that Neigh-bourhood Plan discussions can also be encouraged on this. We are also on Twitter @wrpcparish (follow us to hear of updates, parish meetings, and other work going on).

Our Neighbourhood
Warden
(Simon Moulding) Simon Says Lets All Be A Good Neighbour! In my role as a Neighbourhood Warden I visit many older people but it’s about this time of the year and in cold weather conditions that some of our more vulnerable neigh-bours can become forgotten.
As a community we should do all we can to consider the needs of our older and more vulnerable residents, particularly during the winter months. Do you know of a vulnerable resident near you who may have difficulty getting out and about who could benefit from a visit from a neigh-bour just to see if they are okay?
Did you know that in extreme weather conditions, the Neighbourhood Warden Service can provide the following services: Collecting and delivering urgent
medical prescriptions Undertaking essential shopping du-
ties. Checking that vulnerable residents
have basic food provisions and heating in their homes.
Providing transport for Meals on Wheels for vulnerable residents in remote areas.
If a person has little money or food we can issue food vouchers and collect the food for them from the food banks locally.
If we can all take a little time out to help our vulnerable neighbours during the cold spell, not only can we provide sup-port where it’s needed - we may also be helping to save lives.
If you have any further issues that I can help you with please contact me on
Simon can be contacted on 07896690139 or on [email protected] You can also follow us on twitter at sdc_wardens

20 MPH “Gateway” Sign
Competition
During 2013 we at last succeeded in getting the speed limit throughout Whiteshill & Ruscombe reduced to 20 MPH.
We are all aware that more needs to be done to ensure that everyone driving on our roads conforms to the new limit. However, we have made a start and in fact 11 parishioners have been trained in the use of the speed checkers and we will be hitting the streets shortly to check traffic speeds and report vehicles seen driving dangerously through the village.
Part of the campaign to get the 20 MPH limit imposed involved a competition for the children of Whiteshill Primary School to design the “Gateway” signs to be locat-ed at the entry points to the 20 MPH Zone. Whiteshill & Ruscombe Parish Council would like to express their thanks to all the pupils who took part in this competi-tion. The standard of the entries was very high and the number of pupils entering the competition was really encouraging
and only served to highlight yet again the support for this project that exists within the parish.
Having consulted with Gloucestershire Highways the decision has been made to select elements from 5 individual entries to produce the two signs re-quired. The winning entries were creat-ed by the following pupils who each have been presented a £10 Voucher.
Our picture shows Oliver Wills – Year 1, Olivia Selby – Year 4; Daniel Polson – Year 2; Rosa Evans – Year 4;
Toby West-Boyle – Year 2; was ill on the day of the presentation but received his prize none-the-less.
Well done to all those who entered. Your contribution to the 20 MPH Project has been really appreciated. (Please note that the years detailed above were those that applied at the time the prizes were presented.)

St Paul’s Church News
Spring brings better weather after the cold dull days of Winter. For the Church the new season brings the reflection of forty days of Lent, the solemnity of Good Friday, and the celebration of Easter.

Easter Sunday on April 20th will see the Church transformed with Floral decora-tion and frontal restored. Services will be at 8.00am and 10.30am.
The Church calendar continues for the next six Sundays of the Easter season, with Ascension Day on Thursday May 29th, and Whit Sunday, or Pentecost on June 8th, so called as it is fifty days after Easter.

Whiteshill Cubs —
Flying for Freedom
Twelve months ago Whiteshill Cubs visited the Kemble Flying Club in Cirences-ter as part of their winter programme. During their visit, the Cubs got to try out all of the aircraft and also meet the school’s inspirational flying instructor, Mike Oakley. Mike explained to everyone that he had been asked by The Help for Heroes charity who were joining forces with “Flying for Freedom”, in mounting a daring expedition to teach 7 injured servicemen to fly micro lights to the South Pole. The expedition, which has never been attempted before, will take place in 2014.
Enthused by their visit, the Cubs decided that they would like to raise money for the expedition. Over the summer “Bob-A-Job” was re-introduced and everyone took to it with gusto raising £200 during their six-week holiday. Another round of fund raising has taken place during their Autumn programme and so on Thursday 28th November the Cubs went back to Kemble to present Mike with a cheque for £297.25.
Team member Nathan Forster was also on hand to meet them all and show them around the hangar, including a brand new micro light that has been bought for the expedition by Princes William and Harry. Nathan has recently completed his pilot’s training and will be joining Mike and the others in February when he is discharged from the Paras to undertake his cold weather training in Sweden.
During the visit, Mike and Nathan were made ‘honorary’ Whiteshill Cubs and have agreed to wear their Whiteshill Necker to the South Pole when they go – the Neckers will be left at the Pole when the ‘Flying for Freedom’ flag is planted - a definite first for Whiteshill Cubs! For more information on this expedition, visit www.flyingforfreedom.org

Dear Editor
We are writing to you in the hope that you can help us. We are Whiteshill Cubs, a lively bunch of young people aged between 8 and 10.5 years who love nothing better than getting out and about in the countryside. You may have seen us over the last few years on parade at the War Memorial on Remembrance Sunday, and so you’ll know that we scrub up well on occasions and can behave ourselves when necessary, just ask Padre Brian! We love to sail, kayak, hike, camp and cycle, and loads of us have armfuls of badges that we like to show off whenever we can.
Page 8 Community
Sadly we have a HUGE dilemma though. Our lovely leaders have told us that they are retiring at the end of the summer and without them we run the risk of there being no Cubs in Whiteshill!!!!! Apparent-ly they’re getting a bit old and weary, and past their best. Well between you and us we have to agree – you should see that Angie Mason lately, she’s getting extreme-ly grey and wrinkly around the edges!!! Karen’s fairing slightly better, but then she’s not 40 yet (which we’re told is quite young, although that seems fairly ancient to us).
Can we ask you to publish our plea in the WaRbler please as there must be some-one out there who would like to take on the challenge of leading us? We’ve heard Angie and Karen talking and know that they’ve said they’ll help anyone out, or talk to anyone who may like to know more about us.
So please dear reader, have a think about it. Could you, or you and a friend be our next leader? We know you’ll love it ………. We’re adorable!
Ps. If you don’t like children our age, we do have a Beaver pack full of our younger brothers and sisters who are even cuter than us, and that’s saying something! Yours truly, Whiteshill Cubs [email protected] Angie Mason 0772 7941239

My Bore initiation
“What’s the Bore like?” I asked my big brother.
“It’s a wall of muddy water that races up the River Severn flooding the banks and anything in its way,” he replied. “We’ll go and watch it tomorrow evening if you like!”
Tom told me that the River Severn is the longest river in Britain, rising on Mount Plynlimon in East Wales and flows 220 miles to the Bristol Channel. I was amazed how knowledgeable he was. It had never showed before!
At Stonebench there were lots of people standing around waiting for the Bore’s arrival. Then silently it appeared seeming alive, not roaring like a lion, but more like a creeping slithering snake. The dirty wa-ter lurched over spectator’s feet sucking and swilling, and swallowing them up, making them wobble and hold onto the nearest person or thing.
“Come on, let’s get out of here,’’ shouted Tom. “We’ll go on along the lane to the main road. I don’t fancy going back the way we came – it’ll be flooded anyway.”
Tom edged the motorbike along the lane that ran adjacent to the river. There was an undulation near what must have been the actual river bank; here the water was being forced down into a void creating a powerful vortex that was frightening.
Suddenly, the bike cut out - the water had risen above the exhaust pipe. I looked back behind me to see the water following us at a steady speed. It was getting dark. I felt my stomach drop and my heart race. We couldn’t go back and the water was now gliding towards us. We were trapped!
Tom heaved the bike onto the high verge out of the waters reach. We then saw a soft light a few yards away to our left. Relief! We reached a five-bar gate banked up with sandbags. I climbed on to it with my squelching feet. From a pretty cottage a light moved towards us. A man came into view holding a hurri-cane lamp.
He called out, “What you doin’ down ‘ere?” We told him the Bore had caught us out. “Well,” the man said, “You ain't the first and you won’t be the last nei-ther! Come and have a cuppa’ tea and dry out. It’ll be a couple of hours before you’ll be on your way and this ‘ere river gives up the road again!”

Longing for Longer
Grass? If you have a bit of lawn out of the way, or an area not much used, have you thought of letting the grass grow longer? Well, if you do, the local wildlife will move in and make it their home. Butterflies, moths, grasshoppers, crickets, beetles, slow worms and a whole load more species will enjoy it.
You can see a really good example of long grass in action on the village playing field to the far left beyond the football pitch, where you will find the orchard. This won-derful grassy, rough, wild area is cut only once in the early autumn, and through the summer it is full of wild flowers and butterflies. You might see Commas, Pea-
cocks, Common Blue and Small Copper butter-flies. You will find ox eye daisies, wild carrot, wild scabious, cow parsley, betony, birds foot trefoil and even orchids. And if you listen you can hear that the long grass is
full of crickets – they love it the best.
You can add wild flowers to your long lawn by putting in small ‘plug’ plants
which will establish easily. And above all, the thing to do is cut the grass late in the summer and remove the clip-pings. This is to reduce fertility and cre-ate the growing conditions which wild flowers need.

Slightly rough the top rather than smooth it out (best to line
Page 11 Community
the tray with baking paper and grease lightly) Place on top shelf of oven (if you have the direct heat up and down option it is best rather than the fan assisted) Bake for 35 mins or until the top is browned
Leave for 10 mins then cut. Let cool for a further 20 mins in the tray then remove.
This very healthy flapjack option is a great way of using up bananas - full of omega 3 and 6. Enjoy them for breakfast or a healthy snack for children’s lunch boxes. I and my 6yr old daughter find this sweet enough. Though I guess you could add a spoon of honey. They last in an air tight container for 3 days You can play with the ingredients as you like them. Takes about 20 mins to make. Enjoy.
Adopt-A-Footpath
Scheme steps out! We’re fortunate to have a fantastic Public Rights of Way (PROW) network - that’s footpaths and bridleways to the majority of us - providing access to some beautiful countryside within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. In order to maintain an enjoyable and safe experi-ence for all, including residents and visi-tors, these routes and the associated in-frastructure of stiles, steps and signs etc. need to be kept in good condition.
With this in mind, your Parish Council’s PROW team has set up the Adopt-A-Footpath (AAF) scheme, which is a simple system of dividing the paths into small zones with a volunteer keeping an eye on the routes within each one. Following the
article that was published in The War-bler, several parishioners have kindly put their name forward to help and re-port back to the Parish Council with any observations.
The Parish Council’s PROW team is very grateful to these volunteers for coming In this instance it’s not a case of ‘too many cooks…’ so the PROW team is keen to hear from others who’d like to volunteer or indeed anyone, who per-haps doesn’t wish to formally sign up, but notices problems such as broken stiles, steps and fences, subsidence or fallen trees. Reporting of a problem is now very simple: there’s a user-friendly form available from the Council web site http://www.wrpc.org.uk/ or via email from the Parish Clerk: [email protected] Happy walking/riding! Please feel free to contact either Charlie Curnow [email protected] / 07805 144274) or Peter Hood ([email protected] / 01453 759809) from the PROW team if you’d like to volunteer or have any questions

Choir I read somewhere once that the impact of singing on physical and mental health is limitless. Reports show that singing heightens breathing and body awareness, tones abdominal muscles, lowers blood pressure and is invigorating. So when I joined Whiteshill Community Choir in March last year, I knew it would be bene-ficial, but I hadn’t realised just how much fun it would be.
Since its inception, the organisers Nikki Ashworth, and Nicholas Quayle have attracted significant interest in member-ship from local parishioners. With expert guidance from Choir Leader, Jane Wil-liams, together with back-up support from Chris Owen, and Nikki Ashworth, in Jane’s absence, a seasonal repertoire of music and carols was compiled and staged at a number of events in the build-up to Christmas. The first of these events took place on 7th
of December at Resthaven Care Home in
Pitchcombe for their Christmas Fayre. The
residents at the home enjoyed the carols
so much, many joined in with the choir. In
addition to this, the choir also sang carols
at The Star Inn on the 18th December,
accompanied by talented keyboard musician, Luke Bailey. A final seasonal event took place in the spectacularly illuminated Deer Park at Prinknash Abbey on the 21st December.
With a membership that is growing fast, Whiteshill Community Choir is set to get even better. A wide-range of music is offered to suit all tastes. Meetings take place at 8-9 pm each Wednesday at Whiteshill & Ruscombe Village Hall, and cost £2 per session.
If you feel inspired to join your local community choir, contact either Nikki Ashworth Tel: 01453 763090 Mobile 07976 685537 Email: [email protected], or Nick Quayle: [email protected]

Diamond Jubilee
Circular Walk Now that the better weather may be round the corner (we hope) why not try the village’s Diamond Jubilee Circular Walk? It’s a 4.5 mile walk that takes in the best of the countryside in and around the parish, starting and fin-ishing at the Village Shop.
Way Markers (see photo) are easy to follow and maps are available at the village shop and cost a £1, and include some excellent historic and local infor-mation and photographs. So come on, get those walking boots on!

Top 5 Energy Advice
Tips from
Stroud
District
CAB
1. Check your bills and read your meter regularly so you only pay for what you use. This will allow you to check how much energy you use and only pay for what you are using.
2. Talk to your supplier if you think your bill is wrong or if you have problems paying. They’ll be able to give you advice about available support or talk you through
repayment options.
3. Make sure that you’re on the cheapest tariff. Check with your supplier and use an accredited switching website to see who’s offering the best deal.
4. If you use heating oil as your main fuel, see if there are any local oil buying clubs you can join.
5. Make your home energy efficient– There are schemes to help with this.
