Gates installed to
commemorate our
World War heroes
A set of gates commemorating those who gave their lives in the First World War have been installed at
Stratford’s recently refurbished Guildhall.
A SET of gates commemorating those who gave their
lives in the First World War have been installed at Stratford’s recently refurbished Guildhall.
To mark the installation, the gates were blessed by the
Reverend Canon Michael Hampel, Old Edwardian and
Precentor of St Paul’s Cathedral, during a special ceremony on 21st May.
The gates, installed in the building’s cross passage,
were presented by the Old Edwardians’ Association as
part of the First World War Centenary commemorations.
They cost £5,000 and include a plaque honoring fallen
First World War servicemen.
On a practical level the gates will allow the Guildhall
to be opened up for visitors, but prevent them from
gaining access to the rest of the school.
Bennet Carr, head master at King Edward VI School,
said: “The installation of the gates is part of the restoration of the Guildhall, for much of the building’s history
there had been gates there, the fittings have always been
in place.
“The original gates were probably removed around
100 years ago during the previous restoration of the
Guildhall.
“The outer gates facing onto Church Street were put
up in the 1950s and were dedicated to those who fell in
the Second World War, so it is fitting that the new inner
gates are dedicated to First World War servicemen. I
think it is right that they commemorate such an important event in history, not just for the school but for the
whole country.
“The gates include the seal of the Guild of the Holy
Cross, which was created by taking a 3D scan of a wax
seal and commissioning a company to cast it in bronze
for us.”
Drink driver given
nine-year sentence
‘This tragedy could have
been avoided’ – police
By Simon Woodings
[email protected]
A DRINK DRIVER who caused the death of a
motorcyclist in Wootton Wawen last month has
been sentenced to nine years in prison.
Craig Allen, aged 35, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty
at Coventry Crown Court last Thursday, to causing death
by dangerous driving and driving with excess alcohol.
His sentence was reduced to six years for an early guilty
plea. The charges relate to a head-on collision on the
A3400 at Wootton Wawen on Monday, 25th April in which
27-year-old motorcyclist Robert Loach died.
Allen provided a positive breath test at the scene with a
reading of 155mg. The legal limit is 35mg. He also provided a positive drug swipe test for cocaine.
PC David Bull said: “This was a tragedy which could
have been avoided. The simple fact is that driving when
you have been drinking or taking drugs is not just illegal it
puts you and other road users at risk.
“I hope that the sentence given out sends a message to
all road users who might be tempted to drive after they
have had a drink. It’s just not worth it.”
After the tragedy, the family of Robert Loach paid
tribute to a loving and wonderful son and doting father.
Robert Loach, aged 27, of Birmingham Road, Redditch
leaves a partner, Lian, and two children aged one and
three.
Lian said: “Robert was the world’s most doting father.
He was my rock and my soul mate, the love of my life and
I love him more than I could possibly say.”
Robert’s mother, Sam, said: “Robert was my first born,
a truly wonderful, inspirational person and most loving
son.”

Boat Club members
are hailed for efforts
SEVERAL Stratford Boat Club
members were recognised for
their achievements at the club’s
annual general meeting including
an award for the life-saving
actions of a member last year.
The club this year has handed out a
number of special Felix Awards, a
legacy from the club’s past President
Felix Babcock who gave so much to
the club.
These are tankards won by Felix
Badcock during his long career
rowing and over engraved with the
winner’s name and award. The intention was to award the junior and the
senior personality of the year but
there was also a special award given
to recognise a single action that had
massive implications for the club and
for the club’s members in particular.
The Special Felix Award went to
Will Smith for his brilliant and
speedy actions in helping save the
life of one of the club’s members
who had capsized and stopped
breathing.
This club member has gone on to
make a full recovery and is back on
the river and competing to the delight

Junior Felix Award.
of everybody at the club. At the time
Will wanted no fuss and no recognition but the club wanted to take the
occasion of the AGM to mark a very
special “Thank You” to recognise this
great example to all.
The Senior Felix Award went to
Jane Hadland who has put in hours
and hours of unpaid time for sorting
out the club’s membership and general
administration. All the club members’
enquiry emails get answered by Jane
and she is also an active social
member who is always ready to help.
The Junior Felix Award went to
Conrad Bird, for his all-round contribution on and off the water. Conrad

member who works hard and competes to win and has a great competitive future ahead of him.
Stephen Haighton, chairman of
Stratford Boat Club said: “Conrad is
also the first person to volunteer to
help out and when he does, it is
always with a smile and he can be
relied on to do what he says he is
going to do. Recently he has been
essential in our boat maintenance
team, working with our boatman,
Phil Marshall, and has been a great
advocate of junior opinion. So allround performance is now properly
recognised.”
Club members also had a refresher
course on first aid which was
attended by coaches, parent helpers,
senior members and delegates from
other local clubs.
Head coach Andrew Roe said:
“Although most of the coaches and
helpers were up to date with first aid
practice, it is essential to have a
refresher course now and then to
understand new techniques such as
the use of defibrillators to ensure that
those we look after are as safe as possible.”

Mum’s on a Search is on for fundraiser of the year
mission to get
walking again
FOOTBALLERS
in
Warwick are supporting a
local mum’s mission to
walk again with a charity
match.
Estelle Mancini, 30, was
struck down by a mystery
illness before Christmas
after developing a niggling
cough and pains in her side.
Estelle was taken to
Warwick Hospital in great
pain, where doctors placed
her in an induced coma so
they could carry out tests.
Doctors feared that they
might not be able to save
Estelle’s life as antibiotics
were proving ineffective.
In a last effort to help
Estelle, she was transferred
to Leicester Hospital
where, after being hooked
up to a specialist ECMO
machine, it was determined
that she was suffering with
viral pneumonia which had
turned to septicemia.
Thankfully Estelle began
to breathe for herself again
and was transferred back to
Warwick, though doctors
were unable to prevent her
losing her toes and the tips
of three fingers, which had
turned black.
Estelle is currently in a
wheelchair, unable to start
physiotherapy due to an
infection in her heels.
Estelle’s uncle Steve
Mancini said: “Estelle is a
very strong woman and that
certainly helps. At one
point when she was really
ill they called in all the
family to the hospital, they
didn’t think that she would
see the next morning. There
A NEW competition has been
launched by Redwings Horse Sanctuary, to find the Young Redwings

The charity would like to hear

were about 16 of us in
there, that’s not something
they do very often.”
Keen to help Estelle’s
recovery, friends and
family are aiming to raise
£15,000 to buy a set of
prosthetic toes to help her
walk again.
Almost £10,000 has
already been raised and
over the weekend a local
football team played a
charity football match to do
their bit for Estelle.
Warwick Wanderers took
on a Steve Mancini Eleven,
at Racing Warwick FC.
Steve added: “This
fundraising has given her a
new lease of life, she’s
absolutely over the moon at
the prospect of getting
these prosthetic feet.
“The support we have
had with the fundraising
has been unbelievable.”
The next fundraising
event for Estelle is a back to
school night at the Wild Boar
in Warwick on 25th June.

even a horsey dress-up day.
There will be two awards, one for
Most Money Raised and one for

The winners will feature in the
Spring 2017 issue of the charity’s
magazine for young supporters,
Young Redwings, will receive a certificate plus a year’s sponsorship of
the Redwings Adoption Star horse
or donkey of their choice.
Head of fundraising Gemma Walpole said: “Our young supporters
are an inspiring bunch who always
have loads of brilliant ideas to raise
money for our rescued horses and
ponies.
“These awards are our way of
shouting about the great fundraising
our young supporters do, and saying
a big thank you for all their help and
support.”

hold a ‘Bake it Purple’ day
at school or your local community centre, encourage
your colleagues to show
their support by wearing ‘A
Piece of Purple’ to work or
host a Purple Bingo evening
with your friends?” said
Vikki.
The Shakespeare Hospice
receives only around 7 per
cent funding from the Government, making it the
lowest funded hospice in
the whole of the UK.
Kate Hall, head of clinical services, said: “The
hospice is a fantastic cause
and relies almost solely on
donations to keep delivering vital care to the local
community. Without this
support, we wouldn’t be
able to provide expert and
specialist care to those
living with a life-limiting
illness, whether it be here at
the hospice, or in the comfort of their own home.”
The Shake it Purple campaign was launched on
Thursday and runs up to the
big fundraising day on the
24th June where the hospice
will be holding an outdoor
event in Kenilworth.

Stratford and the wider
community.
On Friday, 24th June the
hospice is asking people to
Shake it Purple for The
Shakespeare Hospice and
help raise funds for the
nursing staff and services
the hospice provides.
Encouraging everyone to
get involved, Vikki Calcutt,
head of income generation
added: “Fundraising doesn’t
have to be boring!
“The success of campaigns such as Red Nose
Day and Children in Need,
show us that we can have all
kinds of fun raising money
and it would be lovely if
people could show their
support in an enjoyable
way, for a charity that is
close to the hearts of the
local community.”

the hospice people need to

includes a bucket and a tin

donations.

traffic collisions on the M40 communities of WarwickThe new station, which
will have excellent access to
the B4100 and the M40
junction, is expected to be
completed in July 2016.

The station is being built
by the appointed contractors, Keirs with full support
from Aston Martin and JLR

ensure they are able to make
the best use of the site. The
new build will cost £760K

to keep Warwickshire communities safer.
Talking about the new
station, chief fire officer,
Andy Hickmott said: “We
are delighted that the new
build is underway.
“The location is great for
access to the south of the
county and the pilot for a
Gaydon response point has
proven a real success, so we
know it will improve our
resilience, increase community safety and ensure that
we have the right cover for
when we need it the most.”
Portfolio Holder for
Community Safety, Councillor John Horner said: “A
new station is great news
for the community of Warwickshire. It has been built
to meet the current needs of
the population and to
enhance our response in the
south of the county. As a
public service we have a
duty to provide the best pos-
shire and I believe that this
new station will help us to
achieve that.”

We’re top of the stops
Look out next week for news of the Stratford Herald’s
live EU Referendum debate at the ArtsHouse
WARWICKSHIRE has been
named as one of Europe’s top
destinations for travellers this
summer.
The English county received the
accolade in Lonely Planet’s Best in
Europe 2016 list, which highlights the
European destinations that should be
on travellers’ radars right now.
Lonely Planet’s Editorial Director,
Tom Hall, said: “Warwickshire is best
known for Stratford-upon-Avon, the
birthplace of Shakespeare, but Warwickshire has so much more to offer.
Experience the wonderful mix of
Tudor, Georgian and Victorian architecture of Charlecote Park. Whether
travellers are seeking sublime
scenery, historic market towns or perfect ruins, Warwickshire has them all,
making the county one of our top
European picks this summer.”
Stratforward has welcomed the
announcement. Its chairman Sara
Aspley said: “This is fantastic news.
Lonely Planet is the world’s leading
travel media company with tens of
thousands of dedicated followers
across the globe. What they say influences travel decisions worldwide and
I am confident that this will add to the
numbers of visitors heading our way
this year and beyond.
“I have no doubt that everything
going on in Stratford-upon-Avon this
year to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death – from
the recent Shakespeare Celebrations
Weekend to the opening of Shakespeare’s Schoolroom to the public for
the first time, the re-opening of New
Place on 1st July, the remodelling and
renovation of parts of the Swan Theatre, not to mention the world-class
productions currently taking place at
the RST, have all contributed to the
county being named as one of the
places to visit this year.”
Lonely Planet’s top ten 2016 destinations also include: Peloponnese,
Greece; Aarhus, Denmark; Venice,
Italy; The Dordogne, France; Lviv,
Ukraine and Extremadura, Spain.

Danger Comes
in Many Forms
Winchcombe Farm Day Nursery Pre-schoolers,
from left, Theo Clifford, Isabelle Campbell and
Jago Deane, all aged three, with the butterflies
they’ve nurtured since they were caterpillars.
(Submitted photo)
Learning takes flight
YOUNGSTERS at Winchcombe Farm Day Nursery
in Upper Tysoe have literally ‘grown wings’ while
studying the life cycle of
butterflies.
Children at the nursery
have been watching how
three caterpillars formed
themselves into pupas, also
known as a chrysalis, and
then emerged as adult butterflies.
Winchcombe Farm Day
Nursery Manager Rachel
Giorgio said: “This was a
fun activity aimed at
helping the children under-
stand life cycles. We successfully hatched three butterflies using a special kit
that made the whole
process interactive and
very visual for young children to follow.
“We’ve been looking at
the caterpillars each day
and talking about how
they’ve changed and what
is different about them as
they develop.
The children have been
very
excited
about
releasing them from their
net today and we waved
them goodbye.”
We cut hair, not corners.
We know that your hair really matters.

A NEW campaign to warn
Warwickshire
residents
about the dangers of
sharing their personal and
financial information in
marketing questionnaires,
surveys and prize draw
forms, has been launched.
The Danger Comes in
Many Forms campaign has
been set up by Warwickshire County Council to
prevent this valuable information falling into the
hands of fraudsters.
Research shows that consumers often inadvertently
give consent to receiving
marketing by post or telephone, perhaps not noticing
the small print about how
information will be shared.
Warwickshire County
Councillor, John Horner,
Portfolio Holder for Community Safety, said: “Every
week,
Warwickshire
Trading Standards is bombarded with complaints
from consumers who have
received fraudulent phone
calls, bogus e-mails and
scam post.”
“Trading Standards Officers are already working
with some of the county’s
most vulnerable and elderly
residents to stop unwanted
communications.”
The council recommends
people follow tips to prevent becoming victims.
Among the advice issued
is for residents to be wary
of marketing surveys, questionnaires, competitions
and prize draws and to
remove your name and
address from 192.com and
similar UK directories.
Other tips include filling
out a form requesting your
details are not added to the
Edited Electoral Register,
screening phone calls, setting up junk filters on your
e-mail and putting a ‘no
junk mail’ sign on your door.
For further information
and advice on consumer
issues contact the Citizens’
Advice helpline on 03454

DANCE students from Stratford-upon-Avon College have
made it through to the final performance of a newly-launched
national dance choreography
challenge.
‘Rambert Elements’, introduced this
academic year by the world-renowned
Rambert dance company, is a challenge designed to raise the profile of
choreography in secondary schools
and colleges across the UK.
Six regional performances took
place earlier this year, with one group
from each being invited to perform at
the national finals.
Having been chosen winners of the
Midlands heat at the Royal Concert
Hall in Nottingham on 29th
February, the Stratford students will
now compete in the 2016 National
Showcase in London on Tuesday,
28th June, where they will be
accompanied by the Rambert
Orchestra.
Stratford Level 3 Dance student
Hannah Medley, 16, commented: “I
literally screamed when I found out
we were through to the final.
“It’s one of my dreams to perform in
the West End and now it’s going to
happen. It’s overwhelming – a once in
a lifetime opportunity.
“The other groups were really good
but I was so pleased with our choreography. We obviously had what
Stratford College students will take part in a national dance challenge.
Rambert were looking for!”
The aim of ‘Rambert Elements’ is to
give students the chance to create and
perform an original dance piece with
help from Rambert’s leading choreographers, who produced ‘toolkits’ for
the participating groups.
Each toolkit contained ideas
including a theme – complete with
title and suggested sources of inspiration – a piece of music, sequences of
movement demonstrated by Rambert
dancers and some helpful tips from
the Rambert choreographer.
Kath Waters, Dance lecturer at
Stratford-upon-Avon College, is
extremely proud of her group of young
dancers. She said: “I’m delighted for
them – they have worked incredibly
hard and thoroughly deserve their
place in the final.”

College’s

New legislation
on ‘legal highs’
NEW legislation covering psychoactive substances, often referred to as so-called ‘legal
highs’, has come into effect with offenders potentially facing up to seven years in prison.
The Psychoactive Substances Act will provide a
blanket ban on the production, supply and importation
of psychoactive substances
— that is any substance
intended for human consumption that is capable of
producing a psychoactive
effect.
Legitimate substances,
such as food, alcohol,
tobacco, nicotine, caffeine
and medical products are
excluded.
The legislation will fundamentally change the way
police forces tackle these
substances and will make
new drugs that appear on
the market illegal quicker
than ever before.
Warwickshire Police and
West Mercia Police will be
policing the act in a practical and proportionate
manner, as well as placing a

great emphasis on an educational and preventative
approach,
along
with
partner agencies.
Detective Chief Inspector
Ally Wright, business lead
for drugs for the alliance,
said: “We are committed to
preventing the harm caused
by illegal drugs and this legislation gives us new
powers to tackle psychoactive substances.
“The effects of these substances can be devastating,
even fatal.
“Users can never be sure
of exactly what they contain, the side effects they
could have or what longterm damage they could
cause. We would urge
people never to even consider taking them.
“We will take action
where we find people committing offences under this
act. Punishments range
from a prohibition notice,
which is a formal warning,
to seven years in prison.”
Officers have been given
powers to stop and search
people, vehicles and vessels
and enter and search premises in accordance with a
warrant, and to seize and
destroy psychoactive substances.
Advice and support can
be found at www.talktofrank.com
People who have information about the supply of
psychoactive substances are
encouraged to contact them
by calling 101, or this information can be passed on
anonymously by contacting
the independent charity
Crimestoppers on 0800 555
111
or

Pupils are great sports for charity
PUPILS at Thomas Jolyffe
Primary School, in Stratford, raised almost £3,000
for the NSPCC and Sports
Relief.
Youngsters at the school,
in Clopton Road, raised
£2,223 for the NSPCC’s
Speak Out Stay Safe Programme.
The programme visited
the school to make sure the
children have the knowledge they need to stay safe
from abuse.
Infants carried out a
sponsored skip or throwand-catch for one minute,
Year Three took part in a
variety of Chinese games,
Year Four raised funds by
doing country dancing, and
Years Five and Six completed a sponsored one-mile
run or walk.
In total, £710 was raised
for Sport Relief, when
youngsters donated £1 for
dressing up as a sports star
for the day, and parents and
children made cakes.
Pupils also played Beat
the Goalie and a game of
Guess Where The Ball Is,
organised by PE apprentice
Kyle Nicholls.

THE number of electric cars
on Britain’s roads may have
shot up to more than 40,000
from just 3,500 two years
ago, but a new survey has
shown that only three per
cent of motorists are interested in buying one in the
next five years, so says
insurance broker Adrian
Flux.
Its survey found that,
while more than 23 per cent
remain undecided about the
new technology, just three
per cent of respondents
were considering swapping
the pump for the plug.
Despite the potential
financial and environmental
benefits of owning an electric car, and the increasing
rollout of infrastructure,
more than 73 per cent of the
1,784 motorists surveyed by
Flux, which specialises in
providing cover for modified and unusual vehicles,
said that they were not planning to buy one.
These figures represent
only a small rise in interest
since a 2012 survey by the
broker found that just two
per cent of motorists were
considering switching to an
electric car, with 28 per cent
undecided.
Gerry Bucke, general
manager at Flux, said:
“Many of the 1,785 people
who took our survey said
that they felt electric cars, or
at least hybrids, would one
day be commonplace on our
roads, but most thought that
there were still many hurdles for manufacturers to
jump through before that
happened.
“Despite an increased
number of charging points
in the UK, many motorists
still suffer from range anxiety, which is something
which won’t disappear until
chargers are as widespread
as petrol stations, charging
is as quick as filling up, and
electric cars can offer similar ranges to current vehicles.
“Despite the government
grant, new electric cars still
tend to cost more than their
petrol or diesel-powered
cousins, which remains an
issue for many, as do the
supposed environmental
benefits. People remain
unconvinced about the practicality of the technology as
it stands, as well as whether
the cars are as green as
manufacturers claim.”

Focused Melanie ready to
relaunch triathlon career
A STRATFORD physiotherapist who thought she had
been forced into retirement
from triathlon is making a
dramatic return to the top
level in her age group thanks
to revolutionary stem cell
technology treatment.
Melanie Betts had suffered from
chronic intermittent Achilles
Tendinopthy for several years but
it flared up disastrously at the
World Championships in Chicago
last September and she only managed to finish in 39th place;
despite finishing the bike leg in
around 15th place.
Now, after being one of the first
British athletes to undergo stem
cell technology treatment, the 49year-old is back competing for
Team GB in the European Championships on 29th May in Lisbon,
having taken part in her first
triathlon in Tewkesbury last
week.
She’s aiming for the European
Half Ironman Championships in
Austria at the start of September
as her main event this year and the
World Long Distance Champi-
onships in Oklahoma at the end of
September and considers herself a
podium contender in the 2017
World Championships in Rotterdam.
Betts is married to Andrew
Clarke who farms at Abbots
Morton near Alcester. The couple
have two children, Grace aged
nine, and Isobel aged six. She told
us about her amazing recovery and
the relaunch of her athletics
career.
She said: “I’m a former Team
GB physiotherapist and currently
run practices at Atherstone and the
leading Wildmoor Spa and Health
Club in Stratford.
“I was treating the founder of
the club when I learned he is also
a director of CT Ltd Therapy
which happened to be conducting
research into stem cell therapy for
Achilles tendinopathy. I managed
to get on the trials in Greece and
this involved me flying there twice
and self-treating at home.
“Tenocytes are the building
blocks of tendons where the
muscle joins onto the bone. I had
to rub a gel into my leg which the
tendon absorbed.
“The gel contains growth fac-
tors in a platelet lysate gel called
TendoncelTM.
“These are isolated platelet
growth factors reconstituted within
the cellulose derivative gel. The
growth and repair of the tendon is
encouraged — resulting in reparation and rebuilding of the collagen
matrix or the body within the
structure of the tendon itself.
“Over a three-month period I
went from not being able to run at
all to full run-training. I achieved
results in a very short space of
time, less than four weeks, on a
chronic problem which had been
on and off for ten years.
“Within the first week to ten
days I started slow jogging and
then, on day 21, I was back in
Greece and I ran five miles along
the waterfront there before my
final reading.
“So I’d gone from not running
at all back to a decent pace over
five miles in three weeks. I had to
send photos and measurements of
my leg twice a week. I was the
only athlete taking part in the
trials.
“Since Christmas I’ve been
racing pain free and winning local
and regional events again.”

Grace.
Johnson
is top of
the class
WARWICK’S Andrew Johnson
rode his own Quintons Ernest to a
coveted place at the pretigious
Horse of the Year show.
Johnson came out on top of the
cob class at the SEIB Insurance
Broker’s Search for a Star 2016
HOYS qualifier held at Houghton
Hall in Cambridgeshire on 15th
May.
The 24-year-old’s full Irish
Draught gelding, known as Ernie,
was originally bought as a winter
project to work on whilst
Johnson’s other horse was injured.
“He never recovered, so Ernie
stayed,” explains Andrew, who
works as a farrier.
The gelding has overcome a
confidence crisis to make it to the
top spot at Houghton.
“He was very timid to begin
with,” said Johnson.
“We came to Search for a Star
last year and he was pulled in top,
but he spooked with the ride
judge. He wasn’t ready but he has
really grown up now.”
Andrew hopes to start jumping
Ernie, whose favourite treat is
fresh raspberries, later this year.
He will aim the cob at the Irish
Draught Championships again
and hopes to try some Royal
International qualifiers.
