Photo of the month
We are heading back to the late 1950s this month and here
are the primary school children with the Maypole. The
Maypole dance has died out in recent years but requiredskill and training as the children circled in different
directions weaving the ribbons until the pole was covered.
This one is at the back of the old school on Fen End. Those
with eagle eyes might spot a young member who is now an
important local councillor!
If you have stories or memories about this picture,
please contact Jon Edney, 31 High Street or
Old Willingham.- May issue
Cecil Gleaves has commented on the May Old Willinghamarticle. He believes the picture (showing girls in a parade)dates from the 19203 rather than the 1930s. He makes the
point that the girls are shown walking south down LongLane. He also points out that the greenhouses extended to
Newington.

allotment at West Meadow Close. Rent is £20 perannum and a refundable deposit of £30 is required.If interested, please contact 01954 260284

to the BMO Round 1 are sent to pupils who score highly in
the Senior Challenge each November, and are then
qualified to represent the UK at the International
Mathematical Olympiad (IMO).BMO Round 1 lasts three and a half hours and contains
six complex and involved mathematical problems for which
full written solutions are required. Around 100 highachievers in Round One, who are qualified to represent the
UK at the IMO are invited to try Round Two. Luke
received a certificate of distinction in the first round and
was invited to take part in Round Two. This places him
amongst the top 100 or so 16 — 18 year old pupils in the

HELP WILLINGHAM
CELEBRATE THE OLYMPICS
A number of the local groups in the Village are hoping to
take part in an Olympic—themed fun day and party on
Saturday 4 August on the Jubilee Field (by the children's
playgrounds).The plan is to have a large TV in the Ploughman Hall
showing the Olympics through the afternoon and evening.Meanwhile, during the day, we will run our own Villagegames on the fields. There will be a bar available and
supporting events such as a barbecue and live music but the
details are still being finalised.
We are looking for local groups to organise a fun/sillygame lasting 30 minutes to an hour. This could be an event
which relates to the club (like a slow bike ride, bowls usingmelons or judo in inflatable sumo suits) or somethingcompletely different (like a 3 legged stilt race or an egg and
spoon race with spade and a rugby ball). Finals could be
held later in the afternoon and we would have medal
ceremonies for the first 3 places.We would like to encourage as many Villagers as possible
to come and take part. We are aiming to make this a free
event so the more people who can give us half an hour of
their time for an all—day fun day, the better!
We will be holding a Grand Summer Draw on the day of
the event with some very good prizes. We hope to get a
holiday, a dinner for two and some other big prizes. Moneyfrom this draw will be used to fund the day and we hopethat lots of you will buy (and sell) tickets.
Our aim is to create our own fun Village event, where we
can all get together and chat, have a drink and have fun. If
you would like to help make this a special day, especially if
you or your friends° can run a 30-60 minute game/race/event
° are in a band or music group' can provide entertainment (magic, juggling, street
theatre, dance, etc.)° have any other great ideas
then please contact one of us.

New Youth Centre for WillinghamIt's coming soon! A brand new youth centre, purpose built
for the youth of our village. It may have taken a while but
after the survey of the village in 2008 when 128'teenagersreturned the questionnaire, the overwhelming request was
for a youth centre. Following that, Willingham Action
Group was set up to begin the response to the questionnaireand then Willingham Youth Trust grew out of that,becoming a charity in 2010. Since then a youth club has
been running in the Baptist church hall on George Street on
Wednesday evenings with two trained youth workers. Over
the last eighteen months a wide range of activities has been
on offer. There is an X-box 360 and a 40 inch TV, table
tennis, snooker, table football, computers with a range of
games, crafts and cookery. The club runs during term time
and it is hoped that soon a second evening session can begin.
HELP NEEDED The dream is that the new youth centre,
on the West Fen End of the Ploughman Hall, will be
finished by the end of the year. It will be on two floors with
a kitchen downstairs. If this is to happen help is needed.
£28,000 is held by the Parish Council for the purpose of
building a youth centre which has to be match funded. The
plans for the work have been passed by the County Council
and are now going out for tenders from local builders but
we need to raise about £35,000 for the building work to be
done. Can you or your business help with a donation? We
also need to strengthen our team of trustees. We need

Neighbourhood Watch for
Willingham
Neighbourhood Watch is being set up in Willingham,with the full support of the Parish Council.
Mike Tidball has agreed to be the Village Co-ordinator, and
has already started to work in that role. One of his earlytasks will be to recruit street co—ordinators (ideally for
every road).In Swavesey, which has had a Neighbourhood Watch
scheme for three years, a number of young parents have
signed up as street co-ordinators. Introducing the scheme in
Swavesey has had a major influence on reducing crime
rates. Given the current crime level in Willingham, there is
clearly a strong case for having the scheme here.
Neighbourhood Watch works very closely with the
police.Mike Tidball writer.
'It is horrible to be a victim of crime but also horrible to live
in fear of becoming a Victim of crime with many of the
older generation feeling particularly vulnerable. Crime
rates are higher in cities, where most people are strangers to
each other, because criminals can remain anonymous.Evidence suggests that offenders will avoid areas where
they will be more noticed and this is the strength of a
Neighbourhood Watch scheme.
Policing has changed recently so that the police now work
more closely with local communities, but even more can be
achieved if the communities work with the police. Our
local station at Histon now has 24 hour cover of this area.
We all wish to live so that our families and propertyremain safe. Being .involved in Neighbourhood Watch
simply means being a little more observant and reportingthings that seem suspicious. Members also receive regularinformation updates from the police.'

Pastoral Letter
60 years is a long time by anyone's reckoning, but to be a
reigning monarch for that long is remarkable. The country
is ready to celebrate, in fact much of the rest of the world is
ready to join us in celebrating. The Queen has become
something of an ambassador and is welcomed in grand
style wherever she goes.
There is a previous good example of a monarch who
commanded general respect. King David achieved great
fame 3000 years ago by being a great military leader who
brought stability to the nation of Israel and extended their
borders to become a great empire. A thousand years later
one born of his lineage came to be king of the whole world.
Jesus was not a military leader. He was not entertained byinternational nobility. He was not even recognised by his
own people. Yet he was God's choice to bring freedom and
liberty to the whole human race.
JUBILEE
In the time of the Old Testament, Jubilee was the fiftieth
year. In that year all debts were cancelled and slaves were
set free. It was a time that many looked forward to (except,
perhaps the rich!). It was truly a time for freedom and
celebration. When God sent Jesus to be the king for the
whole world it was to bring about that sense ofjubilee — a
time for everyone to know real freedom and release fromdebt. This was not the financial debt that many people are
in, but the debt brought about by our selfishness,dishonesty and general wrong doing. There has to be a
punishment for any wrong doing if there is to be justice.
Jesus was the one who took the punishment for all of us, not
a normal royal privilege, so that we could be free from the
punishment that would come our way eventually. Many
of our nation follow the Queen with great admiration and
respect.Jesus is worthy of much greater honour and respect.
In celebrating the jubilee of our Queen we can also
celebrate the jubilee brought in by the King of kings.

Bank Holidays (Spring and Diamond Jubilee) Just a
reminder that our surgeries and pharmacy will be closed on
Monday 4June and Tuesday 5 June.Cover will be provided by our local Out of Hours
Service UCC on 0330 123 9131
You will be offered telephone advice and an appointment to
see a doctor at the Chesterton Medical Centre or a visit if
appropriate. There is free parking at the Medical Centre
and all the doctors are local GPs. Our surgery receives an
electronic medical report for your records so that our
doctors are up to date with any medical problems you have
whilst the surgery is closed. This locally organised out of
hours service is used by all the Cambridgeshire GP
surgeries and is the correct and best way to access medical
care outside surgery hours.
NHS Direct on 0845 4647 is also useful if you just want
some telephone advice.
Use of NHS Services outside surgery hours Please can
we ask you not to attend the A & E Departments of our
local hospitals unless you have a life threatening condition
or you think you may need an X—ray. Our emergencyservices are over-stretched and there will undoubtedly be a
long wait to see a doctor. Inappropriate use of A & E can
adversely affect the ability of the service to deal with
genuine emergency cases.
Pharmacy news Patients on repeat medication can benefit
from a Medicines Use Review in the Pharmacy. This is a
free NHS service which helps you to get the best results
from your medication. If you would like more information
on how and when to take your medicines for maximum
therapeutic effect, please ask for an appointment at the
Pharmacy, or ring 01954 261787 to arrange a time. If the
pharmacy is not too busy, Neil, our pharmacist, may be able
to offer this service without a pre—arranged appointment,but he may ask you to pop back at another time.
Acknowledgements We would like to extend our thanks to
the families and friends who kindly made donations to the
Surgery Equipment Fund in memory of both Joyce Smith
and Donald Peacock.
Equipment We intend to purchase a new sigmoidoscope.We will then be able to offer a sigmoidoscopy service at
both Willingham and Longstanton surgeries which means
that our patients do not have to travel to hospital.We would also like to thank Arnold and Patricia Cooperwho have donated a new wheelchair to the surgery to
replace the rather ageing one we currently have at
Willingham Surgery to transport patients to and from the
car park when needed.

ETHIOPIA BULLETIN number 4
When I return I definitely will expect you all to hand shake
as they do in Ethiopia! I heard that there were worries about
shaking hands at the Olympics and catching germs or
something; how silly! There may be nasty diseases around
the world but I have not known such rules as here for hand-
washing and care over contact with hands. We have had to
learn the protocol for meeting and greeting. When meetingfor the first time, a firm —
very firm — right hand shake is
good, but hold your elbow with the left hand if showingrespect while doing so. If you have just washed your hands
and they are wet, or you know your hands are not clean, youoffer the back of your right wrist to touch instead. If you
are meeting a good friend then you touch right shoulders
while shaking hands...I just love this one, it is so friendlyand happy, and really good mates touch shoulders twice.
Ethiopians wouldn't dream of having a drink or eatinganything without washing their hands properly first - so justremember that next time you reach for the biscuit at yourcoffee break!
Two volunteers in the area are VSO and the others are
from US Peace Corps while some pass through Visiting each
other so that adds to the people I see here in general. All are
good company and it is relaxing being able to talk freelywithout being careful how I say things, or having to speakslowly. Somehow we gather once a week for an earlyevening meal and I meet my other Education VSO personhere mid—week just to talk about schools and office
grumbles and frustrations.
I tend to visit schools in the mornings and avoid leavingat the same time as they walk home for their lunch; I getfollowed by crowds like the Pied Piper. When one fierce
Principal didn't get the full obedient response to go home
without me, he saw them off with a few rocks then went to
wash his hands! A typical school has a large walled, gatedcompound with some trees for shade and a football pitchmarked out with stones and rough goal posts. Don't worry,where there are newly planted areas they are secured with
lots of barbed wire. Outside the school walls are the ladies
selling nuts, carrots or berries by the handful. Inside there
are long huts for classrooms that can house 50 or so children—
oops, all are called students here. Near the main buildingwill be the special flag pole area. The huts have really wide
roofs for shade and protection in the rainy season and on the
outside walls there will be huge accurate diagrams for
geography, all imaginable biology and the periodic table,
painted in bright colours. Where there are younger students
the words may be in English but otherwise it is all in
Tigrinya. Teachers can be recognised by their white lab—
coats, and they carry their chalk, board duster, text books
and often their rubber tube (whip) with them — which theyhide as soon as they see me. Classrooms have very narrow
wooden benches that seat 2 — 3 students, a blackboard and
in the younger classes hand—made posters of numbers,
vocabulary and the like. In most schools about a third will
be orphans from HIV/Aids families and it is where the
proportion is higher there is more bad behaviour. School
Principals are up against poor funding and supporting these
students when they do not have much themselves. Freshlypainted classrooms, exercise books, uniforms for orphans,new equipment and pens
— they all use biros all the time —
are usually funded by parents in their community. The
Ethiopian government pays schools a tiny annual amount
per student; equal to the price of a small packet of crisps in
England. So when I go into schools I watch lessons and am
looking to see how I can help the teachers be more creative
in their lessons with what they have got and what they have
to teach. I then work with Principals and area Supervisorsand the teachers to encourage and help them with their
lessons and teaching resources so the students learn better,which in turn hopefully will help their results and
behaviour improve as well. Only I had trouble in one lesson
concentrating; a noisy pigeon was feeding its young chicks
in a nest in the blackboard!
The most impressive thing I see and I try to attend
regularly, are the flag ceremonies. It is a sort of assemblywhich lasts about 20 minutes and is held half an hour before
daily lessons begin at 8 00 am. All students must be in the
compound lined up ready in their year groups for
discussions, student readings, HIV/Aids talks and so on. I
have been handed the loud hailer without warning a coupleof times to address the 1,650 students eyes fixed on me, the
forenji. I can't remember what I said, but once I had to
repeat it all — apparently my speech was too short! Then at
the end the Ethiopian flag is raised with precision timingwhile everyone stands to attention, properly spaced in
straight lines, hand on heart, singing with great respect their
national anthem. It is just tremendous and starts the day so
well.

From the Parish Council

CemeteryThe long running quest for a new site to serve Willinghamcontinues. Many sites have been identified and tested but all
found unsuitable due mainly to high levels of ground water.
If anyone feels that they own a suitable site and are willingto consider selling the land then please do contact the
Parish Council office. We will run out of space in the
existing cemetery quite soon and desperately want to be
able to find a location in the village or very close to it that
has easy access.
There has been a good deal of maintenance work in the
cemetery with trees being trimmed and ivy removed from
headstones. The excess soil will be removed shortly and re-
used at the Jubilee Field. Problems with the entrances are
being looked at and hopefiilly we can find ways to make
access easier. The age and design of the current gates and
pillars makes the problems not easy or cheap to solve. We
are aware of a problem with a nest of bees — local expertsare being consulted.
Ploughman Hall and the Pavilion
Improvements to the car parking area in front of the
Ploughman Hall are imminent. Tenders have gone out for
the work to provide more parking and a better surface. The
conversion of part of the Ploughman Hall to house a
permanent youth facility has also gone out to tender but
Willingham Youth Trust are finding it hard to obtain grant
support and at the moment it is not clear when this work
will take place. We will keep you updated.The kitchen in the sports pavilion has been refurbished to
comply fully with food preparation regulations and to
provide a better facility for users and Visitors.
Tourist Centre
By the time this newsletter hits your doormat or certainlyshortly after there will be a new map on the Green. It is
primarily there for visitors to our Village of whom we get a
surprisingly large number. You do not tend to think of
Willingham as a tourist centre but it has some very
interesting old buildings including the parish church, some
beautiful walks and some great towns and cities very close.
It is possible to get to St Ives, Cambridge or Ely keeping to
paths and byways with some stunning walks along the rivers.
If you have not tried it then a trip on the guided bus from
Longstanton Park and Ride is well worth taking. Transit
time to St Ives is about ten minutes through lovelycountryside.
Village Facilities
The council is committed to continually improving villageamenities and, working together with Willingham Action
Group, is looking to increase trees on the Jubilee Field and
install additional seating and picnic areas. Other ideas
include a skate/scooter park, an outdoor gym, an outdoor
table tennis table, an overhaul of the under-fives play area
and more adventurous equipment for the older children. It
will take time and money to achieve any of these objectives.The council is working with Willingham Primary School on
the ideas and would welcome input from the wider
community on what they would like to see.
After the closure of the bank, building society and petrolsales a number of parishioners asked if there is more that
the Parish Council can do to help retain facilities like these
in the Village. Sadly the answer is no. Whilst we can and do
work hard with our District and County colleagues on
issues like the library there is very little we can do to
influence commercial business decisions. The answer is in
the hands of all of us who live here. Use them or lose them.
If the business is viable it will stay but if not it will go. So
please do support local firms. They are a vital part of our
community.

As is usual at this time of year, this month's report is a
summary of the one I gave to the Annual Parish Meeting.The past twelve months have been very busy ones in this
division. It started with the campaign to keep the
Willingham library open. While the County Council has
agreed that no libraries will shut, savings still have to be
made and as a result the library opening hours have been
reduced. Greater reliance will be placed on volunteers and
I am very grateful that Willingham has such a strong and
proactive Friends group.Last August the guided busway finally opened — typically
while I was away on holiday. It has proved highly successful,but the issue of connectivity remains very challenging. I
have had a number of discussions with Stagecoach to try to
see whether the Citi 5 service can be improved and they did
at least consult on a new timetable. However, the proposalwas a poorer service than is currently provided and not one
I was able to support. Stagecoach have finally announced
revised changes to take place from June. It will give an
hourly service, running clockwise and anti—clockwise, so
will be very confusing. The one bonus is that the new
service will call into the Park and Ride in Longstanton. To
try to improve local public transport, I am working with the
clerks in Willingham, Over, Swavesey and Longstantonparishes, along with county officers to see whether we can
develop a community transport scheme based around the
Over Day Centre. It will, of course, also require the supportof the Day Centre, so a solution is still some way off.
Northstowe has finally been resurrected after some three
years of inactivity on the part of the developers. I sit on the
Joint Development Control Committee which will
determine the planning application later this year. Without
wishing to prejudice my position, there are clearly many
transport related issues which will need to be resolved.
On the subject of transport, I have been working hard
with the Parish Council to try to solve the problems on the
31050. They fall into three areas:
How it will cope with Northstowe
The problem of heavy lorries, particularly at nightThe bank
It is unfortunate that different parts of the organisationdeal with these issues and trying to get them to join up and
see the big picture has proved hugely difficult. Cllr
Manning and I met the Executive Director, Alex Plant, who
does have overall responsibility, to see whether we could
agree a way forward. I remain totally committed to a bypassfor the village. The meeting was far more positive than I
expected. There is still a very long way to go, but I think
that there is now some understanding that joining up the
three issues might be the right solution.
I would like to say a word about my position with regardto allowances. The County Council, like all other
authorities, is required to conduct a review of its
allowances every four years. In Cambridgeshire's case, that
JOTTINGS FROM YOUR COUNTY COUNCILLOR
review was already overdue and a panel was convened last
summer to consider the level of allowances and make
recommendations. It was a very thorough review, takingaccount of workload, the size of the authority and
comparisons with other authorities of a similar size. It
concluded that our allowances were seriously out of line.
However, the panel was incorrectly constituted and its
recommendations therefore invalid, so in February this yeara new panel met to consider the same issue. It completed its
work in just four weeks and its conclusions seemed to be
based wholly on the results of a survey of residents. One of
its recommendations was that councillors should be paid to
attend Parish Council meetings. When the scheme was
voted on, I abstained because of this recommendation, not
because I don't think that members should be paid to attend
Parish Council meetings (although I have to say that most
of my work is done outside the monthly meetings) but
because it is not possible to check that members have
attended without a great deal of additional work, both for
democratic services at Shire Hall, and potentially also for
clerks. It leaves councillors open to accusations of fraud,which I am not happy about. It was for this reason only that
I abstained, not because I did not agree with their other
recommendations.
Finally, until its abolition, I remain a member of
Cambridgeshire Police Authority. During the past twelve
months we have been supporting the Constabulary as it
seeks to make considerable savings to its budget. It has done
this in two ways: first, by collaboration with Bedfordshire
and Hertfordshire, which will deliver some £20m of
savings over the next four years, but provide a more resilient
organisation; and secondly by redesigning local policingbased on District Council boundaries. It retains the
commitment to local policing, at the same time as reducingthe number of senior staff, of which the force had too
many.I would like to thank the chairman and all members of
the Parish Council for their support during the past twelve
months.

WILLINGHAM WALKERS -
Letter to the EditorJUNE WALK .
Dear Editor
We will be driving to Longstanton to get the guided bus to
Histon. From there we follow Gun's Lane/Rampton Drift to
the outskirts of Rampton then turn South via ReynoldsDrove to Longstanton and finally follow the path along the
edge of the golf course back to pick the cars up. This is a
new route for us and a chance to see some of the
countryside before it becomes Northstowe! It is a short
walk, less than five miles with some nice views. You could
also choose to walk along the Busway to Histon which
would make it about 7.5 miles.
Meet at the Duke of Wellington at 9 50 am prompt or at
the Longstanton Park 8: Ride at 10 00 am to get the
10 13 am bus on Sunday 10June 10.

In keeping with Caroline Hay's letter last month, I wonder
if it is a matter of arrogance, ignorance or whatever — When
people addressed snub the other person? But has it alwaysbeen so?
I recall a friend who had just moved to Hemingford Greyin the 1990s. On her way to the Post Office, she murmured
a 'Good Morning' to those she passed until an elderly well—
dressed woman confronted her with 'Do I know you?' To
which my friend replied, 'No, but where I come from we
were taught to greet one another!'
Moving on — into the past— the book group I belong to is
currently reading Sirlerr of Sinai by Janet Soskice. In the
18803 the two Scottish sisters were in Cairo, lately placedunder British Rule and staying in the prestigiousShepheard's Hotel. Agnes noticed that the British were
often disliked or even hated by the natives. She put it down,in part, to bad manners. She cited the instance of two
English families who sat opposite them at the table d'hote of
Shepheard's . Over seven weeks, for three hours a day, 'these
people faced us, and never once said good—morning, nor
acknowledged our presence by a civil bow'. Of course, theyhad had no formal introduction, but a nod would not have
been out of place, since all were in a foreign land. Instead
they 'gaze on the unintroduced world with a simple stony,British stare'
Yours
