The sound of laughter and the PRESIDENT Camp singing must have echoed around the hills of Glynde. It was Glynde Peter Ford Born again! VICE PRESIDENT Rev. Julian Albrow The Olympic theme of worship was continued with an Alternative Olympics on the Tuesday. A wonderful day of sporting fun interrupted, if that is the right CHAIRMAN word, by a very special lunch of food from every part of the world. This was John Donoghue generously paid for by The Stedfast Association and was a highlight of Camp TREASURER that will long be remembered. Mark Jago who was an official Olympic Torch Frank Dale Bearer did a lap of honour with his flaming torch held high to great applause from the whole Camp. A perfect Glynde Day! SECRETARY Alan Caperon It will be great if more Stedfast Members can be involved in the first camp at MEMBERSHIP SEC the new site on Glynde Estates next summer. Working with the Young People Ken Towner of today is as great a challenge but equally as great a joy as it has ever been. Please pray for those Companies you especially know.

NEWSLETTER EDITOR I recently passed to John Donoghue the large Battalion collection of Dick Kent memorabilia including thousands of pictures of Glynde Camp and even of Battalion Camps before Glynde.

Paul Simmons Stephen Roberts With Stedfast Greetings to everyone, Peter Ford Stedfast Association President Page 2 Stedfast News Summer 2012 Editoral Welcome to your latest Newsletter. A very busy summer for many with the Queen’s Jubilee, the Olympics and Paralympics. I Do trust that you enjoyed these occasions and well done to all that took part. We are now moving into Autumn and the New BB session is getting underway. Your committee have met and a report appears from our Secretary Alan on page 9, but one matter discussed was the possible change to the Newsletter where we may, in the future include articles from existing Companies and news from individuals . The committee have also agreed to have profiles of your committee members and these will appear in this issue and over the course of the next Newsletters. Space does not permit them all to be printed at once, their age means that they have a lot to say!! Our Secretary, Alan, has also been busy talking to the Battalion Executive in order that we might have a closer relationship in the future and hopefully we can when and where possible, give them our support. Battalion forthcoming events are shown on page 17. Thanks again to Terry Pomfrey for his assistance in putting the newsletter together I hope that you enjoy reading all the news. Dick Kent Federation of Stedfast Assocations United Kingdom & Republic of Ireland The Federation of Stedfast Associations met on 18th- 20th May 2012 at the Copthorne Hotel, Manchester for the ANNUAL COUNCIL MEETING. I attended the Meetings on the Saturday as representing The Brighton, Hove & District Association. The Meeting agreed to donate £500 to The Boys’ Brigade H.Q.U.K. This left the finances with less than £1,000 for administration purposes. Next Year the Meeting will be held in Dublin and then 2014 in Glasgow. It has been suggested that for 2015 we could take the view of an extended holiday abroad somewhere hot and book a nice Hotel and leave people to make their own food and travel arrangements so that we would all enjoy the venue, breakfast and the great B.B. Fellowship. The Copthorne Hotel was four star and had excellent rooms, food and service. I took the train to Gatwick and British Airways took me to Manchester Airport where I found Margaret and Ron Powell of Manchester Stedfast waiting for me to take me straight to the hotel. The whole weekend went so fast with the social getting to know everybody and visits to museums and the Lowry Center and the well organised dinner on the Saturday evening. The Service on Sunday was in a modern Church and attended by the local B.B. Company and then the Church provided us with a buffet lunch and we said our goodbyes and made our way home. John Donoghue Chairman. IN MEMORIAM Since our last Newsletter, Peter White has been called home to rest from his labours on Earth. He was a former member of 12th & 20th Brighton companies, and died on 30th March 2012 We send our deepest sympathy and condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace Please remember in your prayers all those who suffer either in mind or body especially Stedfast Members and their Families Page 3 Stedfast News Summer 2012 All good gifts around us Churches celebrate agricultural produce with a Harvest Festival or Thanksgiving. C Traditional hymns speak mainly of wheat, corn or golden grain that provided the staple food of bread. We sing about ripe fruits in the garden or of ploughing the deep for the silver harvest of the sea. A modern hymn of Dominic Grant proclaims: The harvest is here: Earth's bounty we bring! H And as we draw near, God's mercies we sing. From greenhouse and garden, allotment and store: these love-gifts we offer and praises outpour. (Singing the Faith 128) The average shopping basket today includes fruit and vegetables from around the world. Brian Wren therefore sings: Praise God for the harvest that's sent from afar, A From market and harbour, from tropical shore; Foods packed and transported, and planted and grown By God -given neighbours, unseen and unknown. (Hymns and Psalms 351) P L This basket contains at least eight tropical fruits and palm branch fronds. How many can you name? People in other climes write their own harvest hymns. This verse is adapted from Geraldine Alleyne's hymn from Guyana in South America. It is sung A to the tune for We plough the fields and scatter... Our land is full of mangoes, pineapples and melons, and plantains and bananas, oranges and lemons. Cassava, bora, pumpkin, guavas and pears are found, breadfruit, rice and sugar cane, with coconuts abound. All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above; I then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord, for all his love. With the abundance of foodstuffs we have never had it so good. But we do not forget that much overseas produce is produced by poorly paid farmers. At the same time, drought, flood and storms cause starvation for many. So it is with a humble heart that we give thanks N and pray and work for the betterment of others. Note: Cassava is a root that grows in South America processed into cassava flour and cassareep. Bora is like a string bean. The pear is an avocado. Rev. Dr. John C. Neal Page 4 Stedfast News Summer 2012 Stedfast Chairman's Report The Committee Members have all been asked to give a life history of themselves as to how they were involved with the B.B. and Stedfast. This is to bring a more personal view of why we are serving in this capacity and to help to promote you into being more responsive to our Association and the Events we arrange within Stedfast and our Battalion. It would be great if you are able to present at The Remembrance Day Parade at Hove Town Hall on Sunday November 11th at 2pm. The Stedfast Bugle Band leads this Parade and members are invited to march or to attend the Service even if you are unable to march. This does apply to you all, young and old. If you have a uniform or medals or no uniform please come and make yourselves known. This year at Glynde Camp your Association gave all Boys and Staff a £5 Voucher to spend in the Camp Tuck Shop. On this voucher it explained who we are and that we are supporting them in their activities and that we all as members of Stedfast keep the Boys and Staff` in our prayers. I hope to have a collection of memorabilia on display at the Annual Reunion. Always on the 3rd Sunday in January at Southwick Methodist Church, meeting at 2pm.

It has been a privilege to serve this remarkable institution in Tthis time - a period which has encompassed quite extraordinary change, not least in the newly merged boroughs of Brighton and Hove being declared as a city. Such municipal status has been emblematic of an energy for development, on many fronts, that ushers in myriad schemes for building and conversion which the Regency Society and its officers have a distinct role to play in accessing the architectural merits and sensitivities of such change and growth. These are exciting, if challenging, times. The built environment of Brighton and Hove has emerged in phases of distinct and notable styles - from our eponymous Regency, through Victorian and Edwardian epochs, significant elements of 20th century modernism, the bold and sweeping educational expansion of the 1960s, which brought us the University of Sussex, and now a much heightened general interest in new architecture, and a revived celebratory status for a range of individual architects and their practices.

  • Newsletter October 2018
    “The Ammonite” October 2018 Welcome to this edition of the Ammonite as, despite a late flurry of lovely hot sunshine, we prepare for the first matches of the cross country season. I would like to say a massive thank you, as ever, to all my contributors this month - and if you would like to tell your fellow club members about your athletic highs and lows then please let me have your contributions, articles and photos, by October 29th. Karin Divall [email protected] Malaga 2018- Jonathan Burrell The World Masters Championships take place every two years, with runners aged 35 and over competing within five-year age bands. During the first two weeks of September, the 2018 championships were held in the Spanish city of Malaga attracting 8000 competitors from more than 100 countries. Waiting apprehensively for my flight from Gatwick, I wondered whether I had been too ambitious in entering this event, having never previously competed at a level beyond regional competitions. I was pleased to see Ciaran Harvey, the other Lewes AC athlete bound for Malaga; Ciaran, a sprinter, had previously taken part in three global events and was able to give me advice and reassurance. Once in Malaga, the first task was to go through the processes of confirming race entries, collecting numbers and most importantly purchasing GB kit (all competitors were required to run in their national colours). My first race was an 8km cross country event, held in a pine forest on the edge of nearby Torremolinos. I was in the M55 category. The course was four laps of a narrow, undulating track through the tightly- packed trees.

  • Adopted Local Plan-27-03-07-B&H+Index.Qxp
    SR23 Community stadium A new football / community stadium and multi-purpose sports hall is proposed on land adjoining Village Way North, together with sports science / sports medicine facilities linked to the Universities of Brighton and Sussex. Any development proposals must be accompanied by: a. environmental impact assessment; b. transport assessment; and c. business plan. 6 In the event that the site proves to be unsuitable for a stadium, the site will be allocated for Class B1 research and development use. (See policy EM20 Village Way North). 6.90 Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club is currently occupying Withdean Stadium on a temporary basis. This venue is not regarded as an adequate, permanent Shopping, recreation and leisure - maintaining vitality viability venue due to its limited size and location. A site at Falmer is proposed but this location was recommended for rejection by the Local Plan Inspector. A planning application Inquiry into a proposal by Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club for a community stadium incorporating the site identified by policy SR23 at Falmer, was called in by the First Secretary of State. The Inquiry was reopened in February 2005. The re-opened inquiry examined the availability or otherwise of alternative sites within the Brighton & Hove conurbation for the proposed development. If the First Secretary of State decides that the allocated site at Falmer is not the most appropriate site, then policy SR23 will be superseded. 6.91 Pending the examination of alternative sites, it is proposed to retain the site allocation at Village Way North. Policy SR16 sets out a framework for dealing with proposals for major sporting and recreational facilities on sites that are not allocated in the Plan and would be applied in respect of any proposal for a community stadium on a site other than Village Way North.

The East Stand will be Steel tonnage: 4,200t the stadium’s second largest with two internal floors Project value: £93M and one tier of terraced seating. The North Stand – which will house away supporters – is positioned behind one of the goalmouths and incorporates a single tier of seating. Steelwork contractor Watson Steel Structures began its 12 month programme last July and will eventually erect approximately 4,200t of structural steelwork for the project. The four stands consist of traditional steel rakers supporting precast concrete terrace units, behind which the main structure housing concourses, toilets and shops is erected with steel beams and columns. Steelwork also provides the signature element of the project, the roof. It is an undulating and sloping structure that is said to reflect the local land fall of the South Downs.

  • Goldstone Amex Walk Booklet.Indd
    LAYING THE GHOST OF THE GOLDSTONE GROUND A Self-Guided Walk from The Goldstone to the American Express Community Stadium via Withdean Stadium Introduction Map legend (NB maps are not to scale) The opening of the American Express Community Stadium fi nally allows us to say goodbye to the Goldstone Ground on our own terms, a Route contrast to the trauma of 26 April 1997. It’s time to lay the ghost of the Goldstone, exorcise the Archer demon – and, for those yet to gaze upon Grassy area the retail park, perhaps take this opportunity to see what they did. Directions This pamphlet describes a symbolic route from Hove Park to the Woodland (numbered) Amex Stadium via our temporary venue at Withdean. It’s 6.4 miles long and climbs to 551 feet above sea level. It keeps away from traffi c where possible and leads through some quiet parts of the city with wide views Golf fairway/green and past places of Albion interest. It’s my idea of the best route. There is no organised walk. It is not intended as a march, protest, Albion point demonstration or triumphal display. It is, for each of us, a personal Roads/Traffi c lights of interest journey; there is no timetable, no time-limit. It is a self-guided walk that Paths can be undertaken at any time (although it would be diffi cult in the dark). It will probably take the average walker two to three hours. Railway/Bridge If you wish to undertake this walk, you do so at your own risk.
