New Shoreham Networking Opportunity for Local Businesses starting in January 2009
 
We all know how hard it is to fit time in our busy lives to extend our range of contacts - who knows how many new customers, business partners or just new friends we miss out by not being at the right place at the right time?!?!
 
Shoreham Business Breakfast, run by local business coach Phil Jones and business adviser Paul Stanford, will be hosted by the vivacious Paula Waugh at Toast by the Coast, East Street, Shoreham. This promises to be the perfect informal opportunity to start each month with a good breakfast and a chance to talk and find out what other business folk are up to in the Adur district, setting yourself up for the month ahead. There’ll be a chance to mingle, introduce yourself to new and interesting people and exchange details and plans. There will be a guest speaker to get the creative juices flowing - for the January event the theme will be helping to keep yourself and your workforce healthy at work over the chilly winter months.
 
The emphasis will be on Shoreham based businesses, building on the sterling work the Shoreham Town Association has already done to bring local traders together. Costs will be modest, donation for the room, tea and coffee - by your breakfast from Paula as you arrive. We’ll be starting at 7.30 for breakfast and networking, the meeting getting fully underway at 8.15 and finishing at 9.30
 
Full details available from Phil Jones phil.jones@seeking-solutions.co.uk or telephone 07921001554

Shoreham Town Association Members On Great North Run

Thank you for your support.

Leukaemia is cancer of the blood. It’s not hereditary. You can’t catch it. Yet, alarmingly, leukaemia is the most common childhood cancer.

In February 1987, leukaemia claimed the life of fourteen year old Paul O’Gorman.  Just nine months later, another devastating blow struck the O’Gorman family when Paul’s sister, Jean, was also killed by cancer.

Always a caring boy, Paul had made his parents promise to help other children with leukaemia and, within weeks of his death, they started fundraising.  In November 1987, just days after Jean’s death, they met Diana, Princess of Wales.  Deeply moved by the double tragedy, she personally helped establish this charity.

Paul continues to inspire the work of CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA.  What started as a small memorial charity is now the UK’s leading charity dedicated to the conquest of childhood leukaemia through pioneering research, new treatments and the support of leukaemic children and their families.

Fifty years ago, leukaemia was a virtual death sentence.  Tremendous advances in treatment and care mean that four out of five affected children now survive.  However, alarmingly, incidence of leukaemia has also increased steadily during the past fifty years and the treatments, which include chemotherapy, radiotherapy and bone marrow transplants, can themselves cause severe problems in the young children whose lives they save.

Thanks to the generous support of the public, many areas of research and treatment are being investigated and progressed.  Teams of researchers funded by CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA are working towards the development of more effective, less punishing treatments which will not only drive up the survival rate still further but will reduce the risk of serious side-effects.

CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA is determined to find out more about the causes of childhood leukaemia and through an annual grants programme, project funding is awarded to researchers around the world investigating why children develop leukaemia.  While research is the key to protecting future generations, the charity never forgets about the children who are suffering today and what work can be done to ease the burden on children and families who are struggling through the long months and years of treatment.  The Paul O’Gorman Patient Hotel at London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital, one of the recently funded projects, provides accommodation for families who are travelling to and from London for outpatient appointments and helps to avoid the difficulties of attending treatments.

With administration costs kept to a minimum, you can be sure that when you support CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA, your money will be put to good use immediately in the fight to save young lives.

Shoreham Care Home Is Winner!

Posted on | August 10, 2008 | No Comments

A SHOREHAM care home has reached the semi-final of its parent company’s national gardening competition.

Kingsland House, in Kingsland Close, is part of national care home provider Barchester Healthcare, which runs an annual Barchester in Bloom contest.

The competition, now in its fourth year, aims to promote the imaginative planting of flowers, trees and shrubs in the gardens of its homes.

The green-fingered staff and residents of the 71-bed home have been competing against 170 Barchester homes across the UK, and have now been whittled down to one of 26 semi-finalist homes.

One of the categories that have taken it through to the semi-final is its community vegetable garden – which pupils from Kingston Buci First School have tended to on a weekly basis, along with school governor and gardener Andrea Burton.

Kingsland House spokeswoman Karen Hilton said that as well as the school, there had been various visitors from the community helping to tend to the vegetable garden, including a member of West Sussex Fire Brigade, family members and even the home’s window cleaner.

Shoreham Lifeboat Appeal Gift

Posted on | August 10, 2008 | No Comments

AN electronics company which prides itself on “rescuing” customers in an emergency, has donated £3,500 to the appeal for a new lifeboat station in Shoreham.

Spirit Circuits, which manufactures circuit boards for all manner of electronic equipment, has pledged to support the Shoreham Lifeboat Station Appeal, to help towards the cost of a new lifeboat and lifeboat station.

The company, based in Hampshire, produces Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) which lie at the heart of items like computers, games consoles, cameras and other hi-tech gadgets and cameras.

Steve Driver, managing director of Spirit Circuits, presented a cheque for £3,507 to the volunteer lifeboat crew at Shoreham Lifeboat Station.

He said: “I’m a huge admirer of the RNLI.

“I race in powerboats myself so I am well aware of the vital service that the brave volunteer crew members provide.

“Apart from that, in a business sense, I appreciate the importance of being there to ‘rescue’ people when they need a helping hand.

“The work of the RNLI is a lot more life and death than ours, but we like to think the principle is the same.”
