South Cave WI: South Cave celebrates – WI Centenary baton arrives

The WI organisation was founded in 1915, and a Baton to celebrate this anniversary has been travelling around England and Wales since January this year. It will end its journey at the Annual Meeting at the Royal Albert Hall on 4 June 2015.

10 Volume 2, Issue 8 2014

Each Federation throughout the country have been taking photographs of their area and these will be saved on a memory stick inside the Baton. It arrived in East Yorkshire in a pink Fiat Mini car with large black eyelashes at the Yorkshire Waterways Museum in Goole on Wednesday 14 May 2015 where it was handed over from Federation. South Cave WI was the first to start the celebrations in our area.

A Coffee Morning held in the WI Hall the following morning, Thursday 15 May, started the ball rolling. A large number of the community were entertained by children from South Cave Primary School hand bell ringers whilst South Cave WI Members served tea, coffee and cake and joined in the fun by dressing in 1930’s decade clothing.

In the afternoon the Baton was carried to Ashes Playing Fields where nine WIs joined together to hold a “Village Fete” whilst music throughout the decades was played. All the ladies dressed in clothing from the decades since 1915 to the present. Each WI also had placards with Resolutions showing how the organisation has influenced life in England and Wales since 1915. These ranged from “Take Your Litter Home” to “Milk for all Children in School”.

Later the bells from Howden Church pealed whilst the Baton left by Penny Farthing to continue its journey to Holme on Spalding Moor, and thereafter around the whole of East Yorkshire over a seven day period.

11 Volume 2, Issue 8 2014

Whilst travelling around East Yorkshire the Baton was carried by open top bus, a purple people carrier, canal barge, and other fun vehicles before being taken over the River by the Rescue Boat. It was met on the south bank by a Fire Engine to continue on its way to the Ropery Museum in Barton where it was handed over to the Federation.

Everyone in the East Yorkshire Federation of WIs had a very enjoyable week whilst the Baton was in our area. We hope that as it continues its travels throughout England, other Federations will have as much fun as we did before it arrives at the Albert Hall in .

South Cave WI celebrates 85 years:

South Cave WI celebrated its formation in 1929 with an Afternoon Tea in the WI Hall on Thursday 12 June.

It was felt by the Committee and Members that such a milestone should not be missed, although life is busy at the moment in the WI! We had a wonderful day with the Centenary Baton in May and are looking forward to holding the annual Strawberry Tea on 28 June, but even with all the hard work involved with these events, everyone agreed that an 85th Birthday should not be overlooked.

Members enjoyed cake and scones and a short quiz on a chocolate theme before a Commemorative Birthday Cake was cut by two of our longest serving members, Betty Binks and Emily Young.

It was a lovely way to celebrate South Cave WI’s 85th birthday on a beautiful sunny afternoon.

South Cave Womens Institute "Are you having a party and need a few extra chairs, tables, plates or cutlery? Why not contact the WI in South Cave and arrange to hire them for a small charge? The Hall is also available for hire on certain days. Contact Mrs Ruth Stride, Tel: 01430 422205 for more details." Many thanks, Cynthia Cray

A New Direction for the Farmers’ Market

South Cave Farmers’ Market was established 13 years ago as a way of bringing local producers closer to the community, and giving shoppers an opportunity to buy fresh local food. Craft stalls were later added and today the market offers a range of goods including fresh meat and vegetables, homemade cakes and chutneys, plants and crafts. It is also a popular meeting place for the people of the village.

Following discussions with the market stallholders it has now been agreed that it is time for a change. The Parish Council will be withdrawing from the organisation of the market, and from October it will be run by the traders themselves on a co-operative basis. There are no changes planned to dates or location, and you will still find most of your favourite stalls, but this is an opportunity for the market to move in a new direction. For those of you who took the time to complete our recent questionnaire, your comments have been noted and will be passed on to the stallholders.

The Parish Council will continue to take an interest in the market as it does for other village organisations, but of course the future of the market depends upon the local community. Please continue to support your market and help the new venture to succeed.

I would like to thank all the people who have been involved with the market since it started, and whose hard work has laid the foundations of the market that we have today. And I wish the stallholders every success for the future.

Karen Warren, Chair of the Farmers’ Market Committee

The Role of the Parish Council

Many of you may not know what the your Parish Councils role within the community is, this article provides a brief overview of your Parish Council and the Role within your community Parish Councils are run by Councillors, who volunteer their time to make their community a better place. Their work falls into three main categories:

 Representing the local community  Delivering services to meet local needs  Striving to improve the quality of life in the parish Parish Councils have a broad range of powers and duties covering planning, provision of amenities, and other local services, from youth projects to traffic calming measures. Parish Councillors have an important role in working with their communities. Parish Councils meet regularly to address their responsibilities. Apart from councillors, each parish council has a clerk who provides administration for the council. Parish councils are responsible for managing their own budgets. They are financed through the precept, an amount of money calculated as an estimate for the coming financial year and collected as part of your council tax. This money is used to improve facilities and services for local people. Parish Councils can also apply for other funding, such as grants and awards. Parish Councils actively encourage input from residents on what the community needs, so that they can budget for that activity.

20 Volume 2, Issue 8 2014

You can get involved by: Contacting one of your Parish Councilors with ideas or concerns about the parish

You can find out who your Parish Councillors are from the Parish Council Clerk or visit www.southcavepc.gov.uk, calling 01430 421044 or visiting the Office at The Town Hall, 42 Market Place, South Cave. Attending parish council meetings The Councillors meet regularly as a Parish Council and welcome attendance and participation from the community. Meetings are advertised, but you can contact the Clerk for dates and times of the forthcoming meetings. At the beginning of each Full Council meeting there is an open forum for the public to put forward questions and points they wish to raise. ______Flooding in South Cave 20 July 2014.

Yet again our village suffered a flash flood event on 20 July.

Unfortunately there were homes in the village that were inundated with contaminated water again, which is a very sorry state of affairs and at least one of the property owners was not at home when the rains came down, so was unable to take any preventive measures.

Some of the flooding may have been unavoidable, but much of it was aggravated by a lack of maintenance. The road was impassable on Church Street outside the school and the library, and the bowling greens and tennis courts looked more like

21 Volume 2, Issue 8 2014 swimming pools. This was despite the fact that the Beck running close by was running fast with a water level below that in the road. Maintenance work may have been able to prevent this.

This was not the only area affected and I know that many people will have photographs of other parts of the village were the water did not get away fast enough.

If you have photographs of flooding in the village the Parish Council would be pleased to see them. The best way to pass them over would be by email to our Clerk at the Town Hall using the address - [email protected] If you are able to supply photographs it would be good if you could ensure that if the location is not obvious, some explanatory notes are attached.

Alternatively you might prefer to drop copies off at the Town Hall.

This was a very localised event with and being other affected communities close by, but that does not diminish the impact on those who were directly affected.

You may be aware that there is a planning application outstanding for over 50 houses at The Stray. Despite previously stated views from the village it is likely that this application will be approved in the very near future. These 50 plus houses are in addition to 24 houses at the top of The Stray which were approved by the Government (on appeal) in the last few weeks. Run off from the roads and roofs of this further development at the highest point in the village is unlikely to improve the flooding situation in future.

The South Cave Parish Council has recently prepared a basic emergency plan, so that as a community we can help ourselves if something was to happen in our parish. Checking on vulnerable people, collecting provisions and prescriptions, helping move property and furniture, clearing snow and providing shelter, warmth and food and drinks are the kind of things that we think we can do to help people affected by an emergency. We are writing to ask for your help. Would you be willing to help out during an emergency? Do you have any particular skills or equipment that you think might be of use? Do you belong to a community group that might be able to help during an emergency, such as luncheon groups or crèches? For snow clearance, limited tools will be available from The Town Hall. If the answer is yes – and you would like to do something to help your community - we would very much like to hear from you. Please email us at [email protected] or call for a form to be sent on 01430 421044. There are no obligations on anyone who volunteers – it will just mean that we may call you in an emergency to ask if you are free to help. We would also like to hear from you if you think you might need support during an emergency, and we will do our best to contact you in an emergency to see if you are ok. Thank you to those who have already replied. Clerk to South Cave Parish Council
