The ex-Bridgnorth Rugby Club player was initially transported to a major trauma unit and has undergone major surgery to his spinal column, rib cage, cervical & thoracic regions and left leg. In the last few days he has been moved to the Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital just outside Oswestry, where he will continue his rehabilitation and posted that he would like to thank everyone for all the cards and kind support. Family and friends are all pulling together to support Paula, his wife, his two children, Jack and Alice, and Sally his mother. They are ensuring the family run shop in Broseley remains fully operational while Simon recovers. On the Simon Gibbons Butchers Facebook Page Mrs Gibbons posted the following message after the news broke of the accident. She said: “Just thought I would say, despite rumours, we are still very much open. Andrew is doing a very good job after all he’s been taught by Simon and we are trying our very best to keep the shop open with all your wonderful support we hope to continue to do so. We would also like to say thank you for all your phone calls, cards and Facebook messages. We are overwhelmed with people’s kindness.” Simon has been running the family business in Broseley for well over 20 years and has 30 years experience in the trade. Editor: “I have known Simon for well over 20 years and would like to add my best wishes to him and his family at this difficult time and wish him a full recovery in time”. Carl Exciting Times For Broseley In Bloom Broseley will be opening its gardens to the public on Sunday 26 June when the town will be holding its annual Open Gardens Day. Last year's event saw some eight gardens open to the public and this year's Day promises to be just as extensive. The gardens will be open from 1.30-5.30pm giving visitors ample time to enjoy all those on display. Refreshments will be available at All Saints' Church in Church Street and tickets may be obtained from there on the day, from any of the open gardens, or in advance from James Hurdley (E Davis) or Downes in the High Street. The cost is £3.00 each, with children under 12 free. In addition to this popular attraction, it has been decided to reinstate Broseley's Garden Competition, starting this year with three categories - best frontage display, best private garden and best business or commercial display. Judging will be held in July with entries to be received by the end of June. Entry forms are available from James Hurdley (E Davis) or Downes in the High Street or from the Weekly Shop in Elizabeth Crescent. Results will be announced in July. For further information on both the Open Gardens Day and the Garden Competition contact Carol Cooper, 01952 882715. Haycop Work Recognised The Haycop, in Broseley, has been awarded Local Wildlife Status by Shropshire Wildlife, in recognition of the successful work carried out by volunteers over several years to make the site more hospitable for wildlife. The site also provides a valuable open space for the local community and is regularly used by local schools and youth groups for both study and outdoor activities. Chairman of the Haycop Conservation Group, Adrian Miles, said that they had been working towards getting that status since the project was set-up in 2007. He said “We just wanted to provide Broseley with its own nature reserve and are absolutely delighted that we have achieved Local Wildlife Status. The site attracts a lot of interest from people in the town and we will now aim to maintain it and build up a number of species that inhabit or visit the area. New volunteers are always welcome to help preserve the Haycop for future generations and regular working days are held”. The area is noted for its lowland heather, native bluebells, broom yellow archangel and buckler ferns. It also is home to three rare species of fungi, one of which is only the second record of it in the British Isles. It also supports a colony of dingy skipper and green hairstreak butterflies, while a rare white admiral butterfly has been recorded in the last two years, increasing its range from the Ironbridge side of the River Severn. The Haycop Conservation Group is very grateful for the help they have had with this work from Cadi Price and her enthusiastic group of volunteers from the Severn Gorge Conservation Trust. Other recent work carried out at the site involved the fitting of a metal gate to give easier access to maintain a culvert which drains excess water off the site. For further information about the group visit www.thehaycop.org. Broseley Born Footballer Dicky Passes Away Broseley born footballer Richard Rhodes, know as Dicky, who signed for Wolves and played against Busby Babes legends like Duncan Edwards and Bobby Charlton, has died aged 80. He was brought up in Broseley as one of eight children in a two-bedroomed house, six of whom slept in one bed, began as a centre forward at Ironbridge Youth Club in 1950 and played for Shropshire for 10 years between 1951 and 1962, playing in every position except that of goalkeeper. He was 15 when he signed for Stan Cullis’ Wolves team but at the age of 18 his football career was cut short prematurely, when he did his national service. But instead of doing the usual 2 years, he was persuaded by an RAF officer to put himself down as a physical instructor, which meant five years. Wolves were not prepared to wait that long so let him go. In all his career his biggest supporter was his wife Sybil, (who survives him) and who started courting Dicky when she was 15. He leaves children Tony, Samantha and Simon, (his fourth child was the late Debra) and 10 grandsons. He passed away at his home in Madeley but his funeral was held back in Broseley at All Saints Church. 3 1/4 PAGE ADVERT FROM ONLY £31.96+VAT OR 1/2 PAGE FROM ONLY £43.96+VAT FULL PAGE ADVERT FROM ONLY £63.96+VAT.

The telephone number and email addresses remain unchanged: Tel: 01952 882172. Emails: broseleytc.clerk@btinternet.com (Trudi Barrett - Clerk) broseleytc.rfo@btinternet.com (Denise Webb - Finance Officer) broseleytc_info1@btinternet.com (Esther Cartwright - Admin. Assistant) We are now open to visitors on a Thursday morning 10am - 12 noon to coincide with the library opening hours - no longer open Tuesday mornings. We can usually be reached by telephone between 9.30 am and 3.00pm Monday to Thursday. Power Station Artefacts come to Broseley We are very pleased to report that a number of artefacts from the Ironbridge Power Station will be finding a new home in Broseley. Uniper have donated the items to the Town Council following a successful bid by a team of local enthusiasts including Paul Taylor (Chairman of the Heritage Centre Project), Gill Pope (Local History Society), Graham Hollox and Town Councillors. The items include four large, metal sculptures by Gerry Foxall, which will be sited around the town for all to see. The sculptures depict workers, horses and wagons, as used in the coal mining industry. The other, smaller pieces include Coalport china figurines, signage, prints, commemorative items and a visitors’ book dating from 1933. It is planned to display these artefacts in the proposed Broseley Heritage Centre, within All Saints Church. Everybody Active Broseley Residents, community groups and organisations in Broseley are invited to be part of a new initiative to address physical inactivity in the town. The scheme is part of Shropshire’s Everybody Active Every Day Community fund project, which is being piloted in just four towns across Shropshire. An Everybody Active Broseley working group is being set up to launch the scheme in the town. The group will engage and work with the local community to come up with ideas for projects. Organisations in Broseley and Barrow will be invited to submit their projects to encourage physical activity, in particular amongst less active groups. The projects can be targeted to any or all ages, from early years to later life. The projects will then go out to a public vote in the town to determine which ones will be taken forward and funded. The maximum amount available to each of the four pilot towns is £30,000, but this will be adjusted according to community response and to ensure a genuine competition can take place. The response to this competitive process will indicate the level of successful community engagement. If you are interested in joining the working group, please contact Kerry Rogers, Community Enablement Officer on 07990 085206 or email kerry.rogers@shropshire.gov.uk. Bus Service Update With cutbacks at Shropshire Council, there have been concerns that local bus services might suffer. However, the General Manager at Arriva in Telford has confirmed that service 9, which connects Telford, Ironbridge, Broseley, Bridgnorth and Wolverhampton is, in the main, a commercial operation with no changes planned for the foreseeable future. Service 18, which is subsidised and operates a limited number of trips per day between Telford and Much Wenlock, has a contract which is not due to expire until 2020. The bus route through Broseley includes many narrow roads. If you are parking your car on one of these roads (particularly Barber Street, Duke Street, King Street), please remember to leave space for the bus to pass. 5 1/4 PAGE ADVERT FROM ONLY £31.96+VAT OR 1/2 PAGE FROM ONLY £43.96+VAT BROSELEY TOWN COUNCIL NEWS Simon Re-Elected As Mayor Simon Harris was recently re-elected as Mayor of Broseley for the coming year.

Last years inaugural Festival was a massive success with thousands of people attending the event over the weekend which earned its main organisers Nicky Ashton and Jo Pritchard joint Broseley’s Citizens of the Year for their tremendous efforts in getting the Festival off the ground from scratch. But I am sure Nicky & Jo would say it was a whole team of people which helped getting the Festival on.

Headlining on the Saturday will be Whole Lotta DC which is a tribute Act to AC DC. Also due to perform on the Saturday are Savannah, Rhythm Dogs, Marching Already, Dinky, The Endings & Lost the Plot.

The Barking Mad system works to match dog lovers with a furry pal on a temporary dog holiday (as an alternative to kennels).

How it works: As a dog holiday host you provide a loving home environment where your doggie visitor relaxes and feels at home. There is no need to worry about paperwork or dealing with the customer yourself as that is all taken care of. As the dog host, all you need to do is meet with me, Anne Kessell, your Barking Mad dog holiday agent and you agree together the type of dogs you like and when you are available to look after them.

Donald and Ruby Glasspool, of Quarry Road were married at a church in Rosewell near Edinburgh in 1946 and returned there for a special ceremony with their family. Mrs Glasspool, 91, said “It was absolutely wonderful. Everyone was so nice and kind. We both enjoyed every minute of it. She was born in America but her family moved to the UK when she was only 2 and met Donald in Hawick, Scotland when she was 15, while he was stationed there in the British Army. He was in the Royal Signals Lincolnshire Regiment as a corporal and was then based in Burma before he was de-mobilised in 1946. They were married shortly after he returned to Scotland. Mrs Glasspool said “I waited for him to come back from Burma and I met him at Waverley Station at Edinburgh. I knew he was the one for me”. The couple made the move to Shropshire in the 1970’s after he retired from being a prison officer.

Summer is on its way and hopefully the weather will show some improvement. At this time of year Broseley and the surrounding area has seen an increase in shed and garage break. The main target of such break-ins is normally power tools, fishing equipment and expensive bicycles - all items that are relatively easy to sell on. We have also seen a number of thefts of high value agricultural equipment in the area, an offence that requires considerable planning. While there is no way of making your property 100% secure, there are a few simple precautions that you can take that may be enough to deter a burglar. The most obvious is to fit a robust secure lock or padlock. Security lighting and CCTV are other options you may consider, depending on the value of the items you are protecting. It is also worth considering making an inventory of those valuable items, taking careful note of the makes and models of the equipment and, if possible, any serial numbers. Photographs of unique items would also be good. There are a number of companies that offer property marking material and you could also consider this an option as the presence of a sign warning any potential burglar that your valuable items are marked can be a strong deterrent. Can I also ask everybody to report any suspicious people that they may notice taking undue interest in garages, sheds and outbuildings. If they are with a vehicle, details of that vehicle could be vital to the Police. You can report any such activity on the new Non Emergency Police number, 101. With the current level of break ins occurring, any such report may assist the Police in identifying and arresting those responsible. While there are three officers in the Safer Neighbourhood Team and a number of response Police Officers on patrol in the area, obviously we cannot be in the area 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and do rely on the public to be our eyes and ears. It is your phone calls and reports that help in deterring crime and identifying those involved. To contact the Safer Neighbourhood Team you can ring 101, contact us on email via bmw.snt@westmercia.pnn.police.uk or leave a message on our voicemail via 101 and ask for the Broseley & Much Wenlock Safer Neighbourhood Team Voiemail Box.

The church with the highest number of thefts was St Mary’s Church in St Mary’s Place, Shrewsbury, which was targeted on 11 separate occasions. Headstones, ornaments, tiles, roof slates, lead flashing, oil and wine were among the items stolen from the county’s churches in the last five years. Of the 180 items stolen only seven were recovered during this period. Police say they continue to take crime in churches very seriously and that some of the most common thefts have been of lead from rooftops. Thieves strike even when action has been taken to deter them. While the main roof of St Peter’s Church in Edgmond was replaced with stainless steel during the 1960s, it did not stop a gang targeting the lead flashing. All Saints Church in Broseley was targeted once. In an effort to deter the thieves the government set up the National Metal Task Force to co-ordinate policing, and also passed the Scrap Metal Dealers Act which required dealers to hold a licence. Cash payments for scrap metal have been banned since December 2012 in order to make it harder for thieves to sell on the metal. Thefts of money, including from charity boxes, have also been a problem for churches. Some have gone to great lengths to step up security, e.g. the 900-year-old St Andrew’s Church in Shifnal invested in SmartWater technology after being targeted three times in two months back in 2007. SmartWater leaves a permanent code on the surfaces it is applied to, which can be traced back to its owner if placed under ultra-violet light. However, as churches step up security, it seems the thieves are using ever more sophisticated methods to commit their crimes. In some cases, drones have even been used to carry out reconnaissance operations. Superintendent David McWilliam, of West Mercia Police, said: “We will continue to investigate any reports of thefts, and pursue all lines of enquiry to trace the offenders responsible. We would encourage churches and places to review their security measures and look at using alarms and CCTV whenever appropriate. It is really important that people also take an active role in looking after their communities and report such incidents to us by calling 101.” Broseley Bus Timetables You can check out the latest timetables for Buses that www.arrivabus.co.uk/midlands/services and select the No. 9 & 18 services. serve Broseley at C & T Building Contractors All work carried out by Professional timeserved personnel.
