SOUTH AFRICAN ALL-ROUNDER TO BOOST HUNGERFORD CRICKET

Hungerford Cricket Club is preparing for this summer’s cricket season by employing the services of Willem Mostert, a 20-year-old South African all-rounder.

The club’s pavilion interior has received a lot of attention over the winter resulting in a relaxed, comfortable environment from which to enjoy the cricket accompanied perhaps by a warm coffee or a cold beer.

As well as the traditional game on the common every Saturday afternoon, the Juniors will have home games every Sunday morning. Parents intend to provide a “café” atmosphere so as to enjoy watching their children play cricket or just browse the Sunday papers.

The club will also host Berkshire County and West Berkshire District representative junior fixtures throughout the season. At the recent AGM, it was decided to reduce the club’s senior membership to only £1, with players’ match fees set at £10 per game.

Geordie Taylor, the club’s chairman said “People lead such busy lives these days. The committee wanted to encourage players to

turn out on a ‘pay-as-you-play’ basis rather than insisting on large up-front fees to join the club. We hope this will see more players come to Hungerford, even if it’s for just a handful of games over the season. After the washout of last summer, I wish a warm, dry and successful season for Hungerford and all our neighbours”.

Anyone wanting to contact the club can call Geordie on 07836 330815.

Hungerford Town Council’s highways and transport committee will on Monday discuss prioritising projects as a result of the town meeting on Thursday, March 14.

Two cars overshot a hairpin bend on the B4192 at the Littlecote Road intersection last week. They ended in marshland and were later recovered. No injuries were reported.

Hungerford town centre was crowded on Saturday with long traffic tailbacks and parking problems. Are these signs of economic recovery?

Before the meeting, Mayor Cr. Edwina Fogg presented commendation certificates to members of Marlborough & District Lions in recognition of their support at many events

in the town over the past year. The mayor also thanked all councillors and council staff for their hard work throughout her year in office.

Town and Parish Council elections will be held on May 2. A number of councillors have decided not to stand again, so there will be vacancies. Full details of the process may be found on www.wiltshire.gov.uk (search for Unitary and Parish Elections).

Councillors discussed whether the town needed a cinema, given the existing options (films are shown at St John’s and in the town hall). They then heard that a commercial company may be interested in funding and running a cinema-led arts centre. Finally, a

majority voted in favour of supporting the project. Events and activities to mark the centenary of WWI will take place

across the country from 2014. The Mayor outlined her thoughts on how the town could contribute to those in Wiltshire and Cr Andy Ross was nominated to represent the council at county meetings held to organise them.

The Town Clerk and Cr. Val Compton will meet with Visit Wiltshire representatives, to discuss plans to promote Marlborough as a tourist destination.

Councillors suggested ways that members of the public could be encouraged to attend the Annual Parish Meeting on April 22. They hoped that, rather than just dry information-giving, it would be a useful and positive meeting, celebrating the town’s year. Mayor-elect Guy Loosmore spoke of the need to change the town’s perception of the council and its work; to make it less formal and more people-friendly.

The next full town council meeting, complete with new council, will be on Monday, May 20. -Shirley Pryor.

600 SIGN FOR ELECTRIFICATION600 signatures had already been collected in favour of electrification of the Hungerford Railway line, Cr Alana Wilson told the last Hungerford Town Council meeting. The petition may be viewed and signed at HungerfordTown Council office.

POTHOLE PROBLEM IN HUNGERFORDCr Roger Thompson has drawn Hungerford Town Council’s attention to extensive potholes in the town, brought about in severe weather.

LIST OF TOWN WALKS SOUGHTHungerford Town Council’s highways and transport committee is seeking suggested walks in and around Hungerford for submission to the town’s new tourism and development group.The mayor, Cr Martin Crane told the last committee meeting there was a need to tell people how they can get around and enjoy the town better.

A war has been declared on non-native invasive species! You may not even have realised that we are being invaded. Such is the devious nature of our enemy. Help is at hand with Avon’s Army of Volunteers, but we still need more brave souls ready to fight the scourge of invasive species on our river.

This dedicated, if disparate, group gathered its troops recently at Salisbury’s Guildhall to draw up their battle plans. Avon’s Army of Volunteers includes representatives from parish councils, landowners, charities such as Wiltshire, Hampshire and Isle of Wight and Dorset Wildlife Trusts and even a representative from Bristol Zoo.

This project funded by the Environment Agency as part of their commitment to restore rivers, both physically and for water quality.

Leading the attack, Sam Stork, of Wiltshire Wildlife Trust’s Source to Sea project said “Over the past months, local landowners have been helping us to reconnoitre, gather intel, and generally spy on our enemy, the invasive species. And now that we know who they are, and how many there are, we are ready to take the fight to them. We will fight them in the river. We will fight them on the river banks. We will not rest until the River Avon is cleared of non-native species again. This is our finest year. 2013 will go

down in history as the year that Britons helped their wildlife fight back.”

That intel – collected over 300km of the river - resulted in over 2000 records of harmful, non-native species currently invading our stunning river. It must be stopped before our wildlife suffers irreparable damage. That’s why Wiltshire, Hampshire and Isle of Wight and Dorset Wildlife Trusts are asking you to volunteer. Help us to fight these invaders. Come out and work along our river, its tributaries, chalk streams and waterways. Be part of our Avon’s Army of Volunteers and turn back the tide of the invaders. They do not fight with guns, but with sweat, with gloved hands and waders on their legs.

So far, 65 brave souls have stepped forward, representing parish and city councils, landowners, anglers, government bodies such as Natural England and the Environment Agency, the business community and ordinary people who care about the River Avon.

Wiltshire Wildlife Trust’s Sam Stork ended saying “This is our last chance. We either fight for the Avon or we lose part of our natural heritage that is currently struggling to survive. Like any good Army, we have a solid plan of action. What we need now are the troops, the volunteers to come out and help us fight.” -Kelly Barnett
