Sporting Success for Basketball Player, Myles WHEN Myles Sanderson Left Full-Time Education He Had No Interests and Would Just Sit in His Bedroom For immediate release Sporting success for basketball player, Myles WHEN Myles Sanderson left full-time education he had no interests and would just sit in his bedroom. Today, the 21-year-old from Brampton Bierlow, Barnsley, is looking forward to representing team GB in the Special Olympics World Games in Abu Dhabi next March. Mum Helen puts the massive change down to a chance meeting with basketball coach Steve Woodhouse. “As he was leaving college I was introduced to the basketball coach Steve Woodhouse. Steve changed Myles’ life beyond anything I could hope for,” said Helen. “Myles went for a taster session and enjoyed himself so much he went back for more. From that point he has excelled in the sport. He has gone from playing one hour a week to playing seven hours a week! “He has improved so much over the last three years. It gives him somewhere to go and to meet other young players who have learning disabilities, but also young people who have no disabilities.” The changes that his interest in sport has brought makes Helen all the more proud because at the age of two Myles was diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum and communication and routine was very difficult at that time. At the age of ten, he was diagnosed as having moderate to severe learning difficulties. “I am very proud of my son – he has done so much in his life by the age of 21.” In August 2017 Myles participated in the Special Olympics, which were based in Sheffield, playing basketball for South Yorkshire and Humber and helped the team win a bronze medal! Myles has since been picked to represent team GB in the Special Olympics: World Summer Games in Abu Dhabi in March 2019. Helen said: “To represent team GB is a great honour. There are 129 athletes that are representing team GB. There are only 10 male basketball players who have been chosen – Myles being the only one from Barnsley and Rotherham area.” As well as huge support from his Mum, Myles has been helped on his amazing journey by Barnsley Premier Leisure. He has been going to Fitness Flex at Dearneside Leisure Centre since he found out that he had a place at the world games. And when BPL facility manager Martin Prest heard about Myles’ achievements he nominated him for a FANS sponsorship which means that the young athlete is awarded a year’s full subscription. ‘ Martin said: “Barnsley Premier Leisure are delighted to support the training requirements of Myles to help him to achieve his goals, which is to continue representing Great Britain at basketball. We would like to wish Myles continued success, particularly with the forthcoming Special World Games in Abu Dhabi next March.’’ Helen said: “He goes to the gym three times a week with his Papa and occasionally with me. He really enjoys going and the relaxed environment there is an advantage. “We tend to go at the quiet times as otherwise Myles finds it hard to cope with the crowds and loud noises. We’re really grateful for the FANS sponsorship as this has enabled him to enjoy going to the gym and enjoying the facilities whilst getting fit for the world games.” Notes to Editors BPL is a not-for-profit social enterprise and charitable company that was established in July 1999. We seek at all times to provide affordable, value for money health, sport and leisure facilities and activities.

  • Brampton Bierlow Christ Church in the Mission Partnership of Wath, Wombwell and Brampton Bierlow
    Brampton Bierlow Christ Church In the Mission Partnership of Wath, Wombwell and Brampton Bierlow Releasing the Whole People of God for the Whole Mission of God If you have a passion for Setting God’s People Free, then perhaps the Lord is calling you to be the interim priest in charge at Christ Church, Brampton Bierlow. Here in the Diocese of Sheffield, we are currently re-configuring stipendiary incumbency, as the priestly ministry of enabling every member of the people of God to enter the full dignity of their baptism, by playing a full part in the service of God in the whole of life. This ministry is therefore one of nurturing, developing and fostering the gifts and especially the leadership potential of others — it is a ministry of experimentation and risk-taking, of pioneering, and of sharing in the responsibility of the Bishop for the oversight of the body of Christ ‘delighting in its beauty and rejoicing in its wellbeing’. In the Dearne Valley we have a once in a generation opportunity, through a successful Strategic Development Funding bid, to invest in the future of the church as we seek to ‘transform our society and God’s world’. The post of priest of Christ Church, Brampton Bierlow is integral to this challenge and opportunity. We are, therefore, seeking to appoint an able and resourceful priest whose heart will lift at the invitation to support this congregation, and the Mission Partnership generally, through a transition to a greater degree of every-member confidence and competence, so that the whole people of God are released (in the name of Jesus Christ and in the power of the Holy Spirit) for the whole mission of God in that locality.

The LAQM process places an obligation on all local authorities to regularly review and assess air quality in their areas, and to determine whether or not the air quality objectives are likely to be achieved. Where exceedences are considered likely, the local authority must then declare an Air Quality Management Area (AQMA) and prepare an Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) setting out the measures it intends to put in place in pursuit of the objectives. Progress Reports are required in the intervening years between the three-yearly Updating and Screening Assessment reports. Their purpose is to maintain continuity in the Local Air Quality Management process and to report progress in meeting the air quality objectives. Rotherham MBC has declared seven Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) to date. Air quality review and assessment is a continuous process.
