We joined LocalPuzzle.com as premium members in January and it’s been a huge success for us. We contacted Anthony after so many of our customers asked us to sign up.When he explained the scheme it was a no brainer decision. Since then we’ve noticed a major rise is new customers who are coming from across Horsham and from otherswho passed by for years but not come in.

Hospital’s urgent and emergency servicesjudged “inadequate”by health inspectors
High in the sky: Images of the Brighton i360 captured by a drone
A health watchdog hasannounced today (Friday),that urgent and emergencyservices at the RoyalSussex County Hospital are“inadequate”.Inspectors said patient
safety at the hospitalwas “‘compromised”,there weren’t enoughnurses on duty with theright skills, and therewas overcrowding in theemergency department.The hospital, run by
Brighton and SussexUniversity Hospital NHSTrust has been told itmust make “significantimprovements” to the
emergency departmentfollowing a visit by the CareQuality Commission (CQC)in July.Professor Edward Baker,
deputy chief inspectorof hospitals, said he wasconcerned the trust has notimproved since its previousinspection.He added: “Some patients
coming into the urgentand emergency servicesdepartments continue toexperience a poor level ofcare and treatment.”The report said
overcrowding in thedepartment meant patients’privacy and dignity was“not consistently met” -despite the best efforts ofstaff.Paul Wallman, emergency
department clinical leadsaid: “On days when weare extremely busy somepatients who are broughtin by ambulance have towait for longer than any ofus want and of course weknow that this can be anuncomfortable, difficult,and even a frighteningexperience.”He said staff do their
“utmost” to get patientsinto cubicles as quicklyas possible but there isoften “not the capacity” toaccommodate them.Mr Wallman added:
“However, once a patientcomes through those doorsthey are in our care.We takethat responsibility veryseriously and always do ourbest for them.”
It’s nice up here. These spectacular images of the Brighton i360 give the first glimpse of what it might look like from the top of the tower. The iconic structure at the West Pier siteis at its full height - 162 metres - and the futuristic glass pod, which is being constructed in France, is set to arrive in Brighton in the next month. The pod will allow 200 visitors toride up the tower and view the city and its surroundings when it opens in summer 2016. A beach building is now being constructed at the foot of the Brighton i360, and will includea 400 seat restaurant, a shop, children’s play zone, exhibition space, tea rooms, and conference and event facilities (Photographs: Brighton i360/ Visual Air)

Market traders step up pressure on Ethical Property
The OpenMarket was regarded as one of the most exciting developments in the city when it opened in July last year
>> Continued from page 1
(49%) of the market’sincome, including rents.Some traders - including
many who are demandingto know what EthicalProperty Company (EPC)has done with its fees- have already begunplanning for a rent strike,if EPC’s contract is notterminated immediately,from November 1.Confidential accounts
show that EPC charges feesof £11,462 a month - plus£1,389 amonth in “turnoverfees” from stallholders- in return for runningthe market, which wasregarded as one of the mostexciting developments inthe city when it opened inJuly last year. Income fromstallholders, for rents andservices, is only £21,209.The amount spent onmarketing the open market- owned by Brighton OpenMarket CIC (CIC) - is putat about £1,000 a month -while repayments on a £1million start-up loan areabout £3,700.In a five-page “recovery
plan” seen by Brighton &Hove Independent, EPC
says: “Cashflow is nowthe critical factor. Withouta cash injection, the CICwill run out of cash inOctober.The directors havea responsibility to ensurethe CIC does not tradein a knowingly insolventposition.”The plan - which has
not been published ordiscussed in public
- addresses severalissues: limited weekendoperations; insufficientfootfall; a “mismatch”between what is onoffer and customers;unsustainable businessrates (£30,000, comparedwithapreviously estimated£10,000); managementinefficiencies; and alleged“weakness” in the CIC
board and “communityengagement”.The recovery plan from
EPC does not mention anyfailures by EPC. Much tothe anger of some traders.One said: “We want them
gone. We can’t afford therent - and we’re not goingto pay it. They are suckingall the money out of themarket - and we could do a
better job ourselves.”Traders have compiled a
30-point dossier of allegedmanagement failures bythe “ethical” and “green”management company -including: “For a year, therewas no mixed recycling onthe site”. It also highlights“heavy-handed bullying oftraders”.Oxford-based EPC
(www.ethicalproperty.co.uk) - which has closeconnections to theGreen Party and otherdevelopments in Brighton- has net assets of £16.9million, according tolatest documents filedat Companies House.Jeremy Corbyn rentshis constituency officein Islington from thecompany; Channel 4comedian Mark Thomashas been one of its highest-profile shareholders.EPC announced last
month that it had launcheda £3.5 million shareissue - the fifth sinceits foundation in 1998(previously it was knownas Caldey Company Ltd).Nick Forster, the
company’s director ofoperations, directedquestions to “CouncillorKevin Davies” (sic), theCIC chair - believed to bea confusion between CllrKevin Allen and councilofficer Richard Davies,the city council’s projectmanager for the market,who – strangely, accordingto some - takes minutes atCIC board meetings. CllrAllen did not return calls.

Three Hove Plinth sculptures to cost up to £250,000 to createThe maquettes of the threesculptures set to adorn theHove Plinth were unveiledat a reception hosted by themayor on Monday.Each sculpture will be in
place on the plinth for 12-
18 months and then founda permanent position inHove or Brighton, whichcould include corporateheadquarters or publicspaces. The three sculpturesare expected to cost
£250,000 to construct. TheHove Civic Society is nowlooking for donors - with arange of founder packagesand corporate sponsorshipopportunities- “to help makeHove Plinth a reality”.
Davies’ fluid, amorphoussculpture cast in blue resinaims to mirror the organicmovements of nature; thesea breeze, gliding birdsand rolling waves. It willalso mimic the diversityand energy of the peoplesurrounding it, moving,dancing and playing. Theshape of the sculptureechoes Davies’ memories ofseaside treats and sweetsfrom the early 1980s.
Wright’s design is partmechanical model ofthe solar system, partfilm camera, and partship’s compass. The mostpopular landscapes andiconic images associatedwith Hove will orbit thesystem rather than planets.Wright intends to choosethe final objects, whichwill include both presentday and historical items,by consulting with localresidents and groups.

Flight of the LangoustinePierre Diamantopoulo
Pierre Diamantopoulo tellsusmoreabouthissculpture,Flight of the Langoustine,which is to be made withcoated bronze and steel.
What was the idea behindthe sculpture?“Flight of the Langoustine”
was the first in the seriesof sculptures made onBrighton beach after a bitof beachcombing. A stormhad deposited a mangledlobster pot yards from mystudio under the arches.Thiswashed-up object had beena means of escape for thelobsters and this translateditself into a human story ofexodus and release - a dashfor freedom.
What is themeaningbehindthe work?Here too, a liberating
energy gives way to aprofound sense of unrest.These are also androgynousand anonymous figuresflying in defiance or fleeing,challenged by the confines oftheir environment.Grouped in unearthly
compositions, trulytranscending the confines ofthe ground, these figures arelight and delicate.
They balance improbablyon geometric planes, perchedor floating freely on formsforged to suit an allegoricalpurpose. They are at oncelaconic and profound,frivolous and boisterous,occupying the air like a flockof birds.Behind it all is a
discomfiting sense ofprecariousness, contained
by a carefully calculatedcomposition.
Why should it be displayedat Hove seafront?This sculpture has
been designed to be open,letting light, landscape andseascape through.The graphic nature of the
piece will stand out wellagainst sky and sea.

families on lower incomesto pay their rent, and isalready restricted to coverrents in the cheapest thirdof privately rented homes.In the southeast,
Brighton and Hove isprojected to be the fifthworst hit local authorityarea, for shortfalls betweenhousing benefit and rentincreases, according toShelter.The charity warnedthat with housing benefitfalling far short of privaterents many families couldbe forced to take ever moredesperate measures to paytheir rent, or face losingtheir home.

computer equipment is outdated and slow, and we’restruggling to give pupils the start they deserve.“Brighton has 1,500 tech and digital businesses and the
numbers are growing all the time.“If we get this funding we’ll be able to give themmore
opportunities to learn vital skills like coding, as well asdeveloping their creative skills around graphic and gamesdesign. Having up to date equipment will make a massivedifference to our children.We’re the only community projectin Brighton going for this funding, so please vote for our bidbefore October 31.”Finn Johnson, a nine-year-old pupil at the school, said:
“‘I want to work in tech when I’m older and would reallylike the chance to practice my skills at school. I might wantto be a games designer, but I also like coding and usingprogrammes to make films and music. Please vote for us!”To vote please visit: foundation.onefamily.com

It is clear this interestingproject will continue to question important issues ofrecycling that affect everyone.”

One Thursday morning inlate April, I heard SandiToskvig on Woman’s Hourtelling Jenni Murraywhy she was leaving TheNews Quiz to start a newpolitical party for women’sequality, and jumped at thechance to start a branch inBrighton.I was motivated by
frustration with the lackof women in power, theportrayal of women in themedia, the fact that theissues of women’s equalitywhich have always felt soimportant and outrageousto me, are not takenseriously in mainstreampolitics.Change is taking too
long - when I look at mydaughter and her friends,who at 22 years old havethe whole world in frontof them, I know that I needto be doing whatever I can
to make equality happenright now.Brighton and Hove is no
different to any other partof the UK, in that every daywomen face inequality atwork, in politics, and inpublic life.Although women make
up 51% of the population,they are only 29% of MPs,25% of judges, and 24% ofFTSE 100 directors. Thismeans that in politics,the law, and in business,women’s voices are notgetting heard.Women still occupy the
lowest-paid jobs - three-quarters of the peoplewho’ve done minimumwage jobs in the last 10years are women. Workingwomen earn 81p for everypound a man earns - andat the current rate it willbe 70 years before that gapeventually closes.
Around 1.2 millionwomen suffer domesticabuse every year, andevery day there are 250rapes or attempted rapes.Conviction rates are low.Women are represented
in adverts and the mediaas sex objects and victims,rather than individualswith ambitions and ideas.Our children are held backby the limits imposed onthembygenderstereotypes.Starting the Brighton
branch was my chance tocontribute to a movementwhich can make genderequality a reality in thiscountry.As well as Sandi Toksvig
and Catherine Mayer, whostarted the party, andSophie Walker, who leadsit, there are hundreds ofamazingly talented women- and men - behind thisparty and I count myself
incredibly lucky to havehad the opportunity tobe a part of it. When westarted there were two ofus making up the Brightonbranch, and we were oneof three branches in thecountry.Now I work with a team
of 29 volunteers from allwalks of life, we have 1,400followers on Facebook andnearly 600 members andsupporters in our branch.We’re one of a crowd of65 branches across the UKand we’re growing all thetime.At our first meeting in
Saltdean Lido back in May,local people told us abouttheir experiences of sexismand inequality at work andat home, their frustrationat lack of representation,and the way women arerepresented in the mediaas sex objects and victims.
They told us of theirfrustration about thegender stereotypesimposed on their childrenand their hopes that thisparty had a real chance ofmaking changes so thatwe offer a better world forthe next generation of boysand girls. The output fromthat first meeting - andthe several we have hadsince - have contributed tothe forming of the policieswhich were launched bythe WEP nationally onTuesday, and by our ownbranch onWednesday.Wednesday’s policy
launch saw 130 women andmen come together to saywe are not going to wait forequality, we are going tomake it happen - now.

Why I set up the Brighton branchof theWomen’s Equality Party
The UK’s newest political force already has 45,000 members since it launched in April, and the Women’s Equality Party outlined its first policies this week.The Brighton branch - which is one of the largest in the UK - held a meeting at The Synergy Centre in West Street on Wednesday, and around 130 women - and men - were eager to find out more.CELIA WILSON, the leader of the Brighton group, tells us why there is a need for the new political party.
David Dimbleby, FatboySlim, and Alison Lapper,will take part in theUniversity of Brighton’sGreatDebate,which aims togauge public opinion on theuniversity’s involvement inthe community.The celebrity panelists
have links with theuniversity, and willbe joined by its vice-chancellor Professor JulianCrampton.Mr Dimbleby, BBC’s
Question Time presenter,said: “As a regular visitorto the city I am lookingforward to chairing thisdebate. I expect it toprovide a platform forlively discussion about thecity’s future and the role ofthe university in it. Debatesare always unpredictableand I have no doubt thisone will be too.”The Great Debate will be
held at the Sallis BenneyTheatre, at the university’sGrand Parade campus inBrighton, on November 17,starting at 7pm.

WHATCANYOUREMEMBERABOUT2007?Gordon Brown was both the Chancellor and Prime Minister that year and the financial crisis kicked in with the collapse of then Northern Rock Bank. Manybusinesses faced an uncertain future and it was against this difficult financial climate that a local dealership group was ‘relaunched’.
The Birchwood Group has seen many changes in the intervening 8 years, not least a move from an inert, reactive business to a dynamic ambitious group.Here are some of the highlights from their journey:
• APPOINTMENTASTHE LARGEST FORDTRANSITCENTRE IN SUSSEX
• APPOINTMENTASTHEONLYFORDSTORE IN SUSSEX
• APPOINTMENTASTHE LARGESTSKODAFRANCHISE PARTNER IN SUSSEX
• APPOINTMENTASTHE LARGESTKIAFRANCHISE PARTNER IN SUSSEX
In the last 18 months the Group has invested heavily in new dealership builds and upgrades for existing locations to prepare for future growth. The brandnew purpose built Kia facility in Eastbourne opened in 2014 and will be joined this month by a brand new state of the art Skoda showroom, also located inEastbourne. The existing Hastings site underwent a complete refurbishment to re-open as a FordStore facility, representing the Ford performance heritagewith the iconic Mustang and Focus RS through to the latest premier Vignale range.
Pete Parker, Director said ‘In the last two years all of our sites have undergone significant building upgrading. By relocating our Eastbourne Skoda dealershipto a purpose built facility we can now convert the existing location ready for our next exciting opportunity’.
It’s not just buildings that the Group has invested in; currently participating in the Ford CEM Movement, the management team are actively encouragingtheir teams to be more involved with strategic decision making. Pete Parker said ‘Whilst our buildings are important, our greatest asset is our people and thecommitment they bring to the workplace. We wanted to harness their energy and knowledge to help further achieve all our potential’. The Group activelyseek to promote from within whenever possible and have successfully extended the traditional technician apprenticeship schemes to offer apprenticeshipopportunities in Sales, Customer Service and IT.
With future growth in mind the Group have just announced a fourth franchise will be added to their portfolio. Pete Parker said ‘We are proud to announce thelaunch of a brand new Mitsubishi dealership in Eastbourne which is due to open in late 2015.’ The new venture will be located in the building vacated by theSkoda relocation and a full refurbishment is now underway. This refurbishment will also see the Group open a dedicated new and used vehicle preparationcentre which in turn will enable the expansion of Transit Centre workshop capacity across the Ford business. Pete Parker added ‘By extending our openinghours and investing in workshop facilities, we are set to double our Transit Centre vehicle workshop capacity and space by late 2015’.
All of this growth has led to the Group launching a major recruitment drive and they are actively looking for talented, ambitious, energetic people to jointhem. If you think you could succeed in one of the following roles then now could be the time to make your move.

I can help you bypass the trulyawful adversarial process of thecourts at the time of the breakup
JO O’SULLIVAN
Contact Jo today: 07780 676 212 | [email protected] | www.osullivanfamilylaw.com
As a Collaborative Family LawyerI help couples understand that thedivorce process doesn’t have to be aboutpoint scoring where one party wins andthe other loses. It’s a process wherebyyou get help in finding a respectful wayof communicating. It is built on trust andtransparency; all advice is given openly,meaning there is less confusion andless stress.
However Iam often asked can adivorce ever really be ‘pain free’. AndI have to say probably not; but the paincan be minimised considerably both inthe short and long term by being wellinformed and having space to think.
When a relationship breaks downfamilies will not just need the help ofLawyers.As such I work with a wholerange of others who provide expertsupport-financial advisers, familyconsultants and therapists.We all committo helping couples separate in a way thatpromotes respect, avoids battles and putsthe needs of any children involved first.
Put most simply we work in the mostconstructive and non-confrontational waypossible.
However at the start of the processI will always talk through how committedclients are and how they reached thedecision to separate.This is vital couplesneed to feel the process is one they arefully in control of.
Some couples won’t be readyto follow through and decide therelationship may still be worth trying tosave. It’s not unusual for one party toseek initial advice and only come backand start the process months or evenyears later.
This is a good thing as ending arelationship should never be a rusheddecision.
So how do you know?
Here are my tips for understandingwhen it is right to start the process.
1. Before ‘walking out’ on yourrelationship ask yourself whatam I stillprepared to try to make this work.
2. Make a list highlighting what worksand what needs to change.
3. Stop asking friends and family foradvice – take some time out by yourselfand think what do I think is the rightthing to do?
4. If you then decide you do want
to start the process of separatingconsider the financial practicalities –such as mortgage, pension, and loancommitments.
5.Think about what’s importantto you.
If you have considered all the aboveand still want to go ahead then contacta Lawyer for an initial discussion. I willalways see clients for an informal chatand to help them find out what they needto know.
No one expects you to know exactlywhen the right time to leave is but besure to talk to your partner, talk to alawyer and make sure you arefully informed.

Waterside’s waterfront wonder: The Hilton Brighton Metropole is a unique treasure
Any Brightonian has theMetropole in their blood. Ilive outside my home citythese days, yet every day Isee a picture of the hotelwe have up in our house(the paddling pool acrossfrom the hotel was wheremy wife played as a girl).My parents partied there.My father-in-law was achef there. The family hadSunday lunches there formany years.So, when I was asked
by the Hilton Group toresearch the “old lady” forher 125th anniversary, Iwas dubious how muchthere was to find out. Ididn’t think that therewould be much.
I was wrong.During my exploration
of the “Met’s” archives,what struck me was notjust how much has takenplace in this grand late-Victorian building, buthow lucky we are to havethis rare redbrick andterracotta gem in ourmidst. The Metropole(or Hotel Metropole asit was originally called)is incredible - it haswitnessed and creatednumerous firsts. And yet,unbelievably, the Metisn’t one of Brighton’snumerous listed buildings.I hope, you’ll agree we’veperhaps taken the Met forgranted for too long. Also,
that we not only need tocherish this unique piece ofarchitecture, but preserveit for future generations asa listed building, too.Surviving 125 years
wasn’t always guaranteed.Detractors duringconstruction (1888-1890) predicted hotelsas magnificent as theMetropole wouldn’t beviable. The Brighton andHove Gazette, however,correctly predicted therewas “plenty of room for asnew and elegant [a] hotelas the Metropole”. The Metwas built by the GordonHotels Group, followingtheir decision to buildequally-prestigious hotels
in Monte Carlo, London,and Cannes. Brighton’sHotel Metropole was oneof the first in Britainto hold this prestigiousinternational name forhotels; ironically, it isalso one of the last to doso, and the oldest British“Metropole” in existence tohave kept its name sinceopening. So it is not just“our” Metropole. It is theMetropole.It is also precious, as it
was - and is - unique.AlfredWaterhouse, the famousand successful Victorianarchitect who designed theNatural History Museumas well as the hotel, neverbuilt any other seasidepublic buildings or hotels.His only other offering inour city, Hove Town Hall,burned down in 1966.Brighton’s Metropole
is not only our onlyWaterhouse building in thecity, but it is also a portraitof Britain at its richest -and Brighton at its best.The Second World
War hit Brighton andthe hotel hard. By 1959,the hotel was outdated,needing rejuvenation andexperiencing the “70-year-itch” Brighton’s hotelsseem to be plagued with.Gordon’s were losing£10,000 a year on the
hotel and looking either todemolish the building or tochange all but the bottomtwo floors into flats. Thedays of large, prestigioushotels were gone it seemed.Resorts like Brighton weredoomed, replaced by thestart of cheaper, overseaspackage holidays. Thehotel’s once-illustriousItalian andWinter Gardenslost their romantic appealas encroaching towerblocks sprang up over thetown.Thankfully, one man
believed large hotels couldsurvive - and Brightonhad a future. “Nothingbut the best is goodenough for Brighton,”said the Metropole’s newowner, Harold Poster,chief executive officerof Associated Veneersand Plastics (AVP). TheMetropole became thejewel in the crown of hisindustrial and commercialempire, so much that hebuilt most of the modernhotels bearing the name ofhis “favourite”.
Brighton’s Metropole is not only our only Waterhouse building in the city, but it is alsoa portrait of Britain at its richest - and Brighton at its best
It is 125 years since the Hotel Metropole opened on Brighton seafront. Its successor - the Hilton Brighton Metropole - is marking the anniversary with an impressive exhibition of the people and events that arecentral to the city’s development.The exhibition was created in partnership with KEVIN NEWMAN, a historian, teacher and founder of All-Inclusive History, a specialist in walking tours in and around Brighton and Hove.

A self-made Londoner,Poster also went on tobuy other Brighton hotels,bankroll the BrightonFestival, and purchase theWest Pier.Poster ensured not only
did it remain a hotel, butalso the hotel to be seenin once again, if you wererulers or royalty.It had always been
Brighton’s biggest hotel(initially the biggest inthe country outside ofLondon), but it was now tobe even bigger. The hotel
embraced 20th-centuryconsumer needs andbecame Brighton’s firstresidential conference andexhibition centre - morethan a decade before theBrighton Centre was built.The unsafe roof timberswere replaced to supportthe country’s first rooftoprestaurant, the “Starlit” in1961. Its grounds includedBritain’s first European-style licensed casino from1962 and it boasted bythe late 1970s 100,000square feet of conference
and exhibition space.Conservative and Labourfinally had a Brightonvenue befitting partyconferences.Since AVP’s purchase
of the hotel, it has had anumber of owners, rightup to the present owners,the Hilton Group. They arerightly proud of the uniqueVictorian survivor theypurchased: its architectureand heritage.The Metropole deserves
far more than beingsomewhere Brightonians
and visitors to our city evertake for granted. It tells thetale of Brighton from itslate-Victorian grandeurof the resort’s heyday. Thehotel was called brash,loud, shocking - but theseare all descriptions ofBrighton. Hotels have tostand out to be noticed andthe Metropole certainlydid - and its uniquenessmeans it still does. Thatuniqueness deservesprotecting and we shouldlistWaterhouse’s watersidewonder now.
The changing face of the “old lady”. HaroldPoster (top right) points out his plans forredevelopment of the Metropole in 1960- which had been opened in 1890 by theGordon Hotels Group
Kevin Newman is the author of the forthcoming Brightonand Hove In 50 Buildings, to be published by AmberleyBooks in April next year, price £13.50. He presents talksabout Brighton and Hove hotels among other topicsand his next project is to track down all the Metropolehotels across the world past and present for his bookMetropoles Apart, due out at the end of next year.

Maggie embraces cabareton a big night out in Soho
Musical innovators AsianDub Foundation willperform their latest livesoundtrack to GeorgeLucas’s 1971 visionary cultsci-fi classic THX 1138 atBrighton Dome on Tuesday,October 27 (8pm).Retaining much of
Lalo Schiffrin’s scoreand soundtrack, AsianDub Foundation’s newinterpretation creates amemorable live experienceto Lucas’s chilling, stylistic,dystopian fantasy wheremood-stabilising drugsare mandatory, sex isprohibited, and a youngRobert Duval rages againstthe system.Asian Dub Foundation’s
Steve Savale said: “Afterthe success of Battle ofAlgiers and La Haine, Iwanted to find a film that’stechnically possible torescore so that audiencescan actually watch the filmand experience the musiclive.“It was very important
to respect the avant-garde,classical, discordantsoundtrack that’s there- by one of my great all-time heroes Lalo Schiffrin- where the only melodicinstrument is the flute - soNathan ‘Flutebox’ Lee’sinterpretation of thosediscordant strings is veryrelevant to the film. Itrepresents the emotion.”
Steve highlights the film’sprescience:“It’s got religiousfundamentalism, mad, out-of-control consumerismanda totalitarian centralisedcomputerised system ofdomination. I think all ofthose things exist now.”On release THX 1138 was
a box-office disaster andalmost destroyed Lucas’scareer on the spot beforeStar Wars was conceived.Now considered a cultclassic (last year it wasincluded in Time Out’s 100Best Sci Fi movies), theoriginal soundtrack hasbeen widely sampled by ahost of influential electronicartists including, Nine InchNails, The Shamen, MeatBeat Manifesto, UNKLE,Orbital, Front 242, Laibachand Clock DVA.Produced by Francis Ford
Coppola THX 1138 wasGeorge Lucas’s directorialdebut.Three times AcademyAward Winner WalterMurch - famed for his sounddesign for Apocalypse Now-made the film’s soundtrackand also co-wrote the scriptwith Lucas.Asian Dub Foundation

BREMF directors return toorigins with female theme
Two adventurous teens rageagainst small town mediocrity
Arguably this is the yearthe Brighton Early MusicFestival comes of age, feelsco-artistic director ClareNorburn.The 2015 programme
(October 23 - November 8)puts the emphasis firmlyon early-music womencomposers, giving thefullest expression yet tothe passion that promptedClare and fellow-artisticdirector Deborah Robertsto set the festival up in thefirst place.“This is our 14th festival,
and it comes down to alot of hard work, but thefact is we have also got avery loyal audience,” saysClare. “We would not havebeen able to carry on ifwe had not had that loyalaudience. We have beenable to offer something alittle bit different, but thatalso fits into Brighton butalso brings in people fromfurther afield.“But really one of the
most exciting things is thetheme of women this year,and it is only this year thatwe have felt we have beenable to take that leap. Untilthen it would have beentoo much of a risk. But inthe last couple of years wehave got a real sense thatthe audience trusts ourprogramming now.“People don’t in the
first few years, which isabsolutely normal, butwe have now got such agood strong followingthat people think ‘if theBrighton Early MusicFestival are programmingit, it must be good.’ Theydon’t just want to hearMonteverdi’s Vespers. Theyare prepared to come to seeand hear things they don’tknow. I think it takes tenyears to build up that kindof trust, and we have gotthat now.”Which means Clare and
Deborah can, in effect,return to their startingpoint: early womencomposers.“It’s something that has
always been close to mine
and Deborah’s hearts. It’sthe thing that broughtus together. We would
not have met if it had notbeen for both of us havingan interest in womencomposers in early music.“I had a festival back in
1999 with some friendsbased in north London, amini-series of music byearly women composers,and we invited Deborahto come to take part, andthat’s how we met. Wekept in touch after that,and we had that sharedconnection, which we putinto the Brighton EarlyMusic Festival.“Both of us were very
interested in the fact thatthere was a good fieldof early-music womencomposers that didn’t getas much coverage as theydeserved.“We have included
them over the years inthe festival, but not in theconcentrated way that weare doing now. In a way itis a coming of age for thefestival.”For Clare, one of the
key events will be TheTelling, presenting twoperformances of Vision,their exploration of the lifeand music of Hildegardof Bingen, with NiamhCusack playing the roleof Hildegard (St Paul’sChurch, Sunday, October25, 5.30pm and 8.30pm).Blurring the boundaries
of drama and concert,the event explores theextraordinary life of thevisionary medieval abbess,alongside her hauntingand distinctive chant.“In a way she was the
best-known of the womencomposers. Her influencegoes beyond the musicalsphere.“She was a renaissance
women before therenaissance. She wasa polymath, not just acomposer. She was aherbalist but first and
foremost she was avisionary. Shewasahugely-important influentialfigure who correspondedwith the popes and thearchbishops.”She was driven, but it
wasn’t until she was inher 40s that she acceptedher visions, as the piecewill explain: “She kept
quiet about them. Shedidn’t think people wouldbelieve her, and also tobe a visionary in that agewas quite dangerous. If thechurch took your visionsthe wrong way, you couldend up in big trouble!”

MotorsAn important message for young driversRoad safety organisationGEM Motoring Assist iscalling on young peopleacross the UK to take moreresponsibility for their ownsafety on the roads.The callfollows the release of videofootage showing two youngmen in their speeding car,moments before they bothdied in a crash.The video, filmed from
inside a Renault Clio,shows driver Kyle Carefordand his friend MichaelOwen speeding along ruralroads in Sussex.They crashinto a church wall in thevillage of Rotherfield,where both die instantly.David Williams GEM
chief executive said: “It isheart-breaking to watchthis video and to see twoyoung lives ended instantly.We commend the courageof the young men’s familiesfor supporting the releaseof the video,which we hopewill challenge anyone whothinks it’s alright to drivefast because they thinkit’s fun and there are noconsequences.
“Figures show that onein five drivers will have acrash within six monthsof passing their drivingtest. Inexperience meansthey may not spot hazardsthat are developing ahead,while their age means theyare also more likely to takerisks.“So we’re challenging
them first of all to gettheir attitude right, and toensure they concentrate100%, develop goodobservation and anticipatewhat hazards could bedeveloping ahead of them.“We would like as many
young drivers as possibleto heed the clear warningsprovided by this video, andto do everything they canto reduce the risks theyface and the risks they pose– to their passengers and toother road users as well."
The video can be viewedat: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K39N4PvKQxc
Some may find this footagedistressing.
GEM has compiled somesimple tips to improvesafety and reduce risk foryoung drivers:
■ Develop a good attitudeto driving that putssafety first and meansyou’re far less likely totake risks.
■ Ensure you minimisedistractions. Switch offyour mobile phone andturn the music down soyou can focus fully onsafer driving.
■ Always wear a seatbelt.■ Stay with speed limitson journeys, and alwaysensure you drive at a
speed that allows you tostop – on your side of theroad – in the event of anyhazard.
■ Never drive if you’vebeen drinking alcoholand/or taking drugs, andnever get in a car drivenby someone you suspectto have been drinking or
taking drugs.■ Sign your own voluntarycode of good drivingbehavior and encourageyour friends to do thesame. This code couldbe an agreement withparents or loved ones, orsomething you committo privately.

ROAD TEST: SSANGYONG TIVOLI ELX
MOTORING NEWS
With the windows closedand the fan on, these chemi-cals pass 200 times the safelevels, but smokers may notrealise this because over 80per cent of cigarette smoke isinvisible to the human eye.

We’re a conservative lot inthis country when it comesto cars.
New marques take an age tobecome established. Lexus isstill regarded as new and it’sbeen here since 1990. Others,like Daewoo, flourish briefly,then vanish.
S o y o u c a n s e e w hySsangYong has its work cutout. The firm briefly succeed-ed in the UK in the 1990s butthen suffered financial trou-ble before being revived in2011 by Mahindra & Mahin-dra, an Indian firm.
Now with sales buildingnicely, you can see why thisKoreanbrandisprettypleasedwith itself. Until recently itproduced mainly workhorse4x4s for the tough end of themarket.
But it is making a bit of asplash with Tivoli, its firstcompact SUV, which hopesto cash on our obsession withthis form of vehicle.
Nissan Juke, VauxhallMokka and the relaunchedSuzuki Vitara illustrate howimportant this sector is to thecar industry and SsangYong’sl au n c h o f a n e at , w e l l -equipped and decent-ly priced contender isinteresting.
NowtheTivolihasreceivedcritical acclaim but it has alsobeendecriedasbeing,shallwesay,notasprettyasitcouldbe.
Really?IthoughtTivoliwasa grand-looking car. OK, someearlierSsangYongswere,shallwe say, unusual. The Rodiusreally looks like it was de-signed by a committee whichdidn’t see eye to eye.
But Tivoli looks almostToyota-ish with its squared
style and flared panels. Itcertainly doesn’t look out ofplace in a car park full of Eu-ropean models.
More importantly, Tivo-li drives well. It has ride andhandling which is more com-posed than you might expect.
The running costs are in-teresting. Around town it de-livers 28.8mpg (poor) but ona run it returns 49.6mpg (notbad at all). On average youshould get 39.2mpg (reason-able). It’s unusual to get such
a wide difference betweentown and country economythese days.
This car is pretty well-equipped with full leatherseats, heated front seats,seven-inch touchscreen ra-dio,18-inch alloywheels,rain-sensingwipers,sevenairbags,a stability programme, anti-lock brakes, keyless entry,six-speakerstereosystemandplenty of chrome trim.
It also has that must-havefeature for executive models –

Tivoli comes as an SE, EXand ELX model. Prices startat £12,950, which is bound tomakeJukecustomerstakeno-tice.Thetestmodelis£17,000.
The test version is clearlyaimed at the younger mar-ket with its vivacious red

Brighton and Hove Albion v Preston in the Championship on
Saturday, October 24, kick-off 3pm

or by calling 0844 327 1901
After finding the winningformula once again ontheir return from theinternational break,Albion will be hoping tomake it three victories onthe bounce when they hostPreston North End.Having gone into last
weekend on the back ofthree draws, there wereconcerns from fans thatthe Seagulls would lettheir form slip and fallaway from the chasingpromotion pack they haveled since the end of August.Those fears were allayed
as Chris Hughton’s sidecame away with all sixpoints.Bobby Zamora showed
why the club took a gambleon bringing him back,as the England forwardstruck late winnersagainst Leeds United and
Bristol City in the past twogames.The 34-year-old’s first
goal at Elland Road endeda barren run of nearly fiveseasons without a winin October; his secondagainst the Robins onTuesday night was met byrapturous scenes in theNorth Stand. Albion andZamora will be hopingthey can conjure upsimilar scenes when SimonGrayson’s Lilywhites visit.Four years after their
relegation from the secondtier of English football,the Lancashire side looklike they will be flirtingwith the drop in theirfirst season back in theChampionship. They wenton a nine-game winlessrun prior to a 3-0 victoryover a struggling CharltonAthletic in midweek, andwill come to the Amex asunderdogs.The longer Albion’s
unbeaten league run - now
at 12 games - continues,the more other sides willsee it as a potential scalp; asituation that can certainly
raise the performance ofthe opposition.Let’s hope complacency
doesn’t creep in.
Albion's 12 league games unbeatenwill put Lilywhites on their mettleBradley Stratton@BradStrat
Must. Not. Swear.When theball hits the net like a…It’s glorious, simply
glorious to see BobbyZamorascoring forBrighton& Hove Albion once again.Not only did he deftly finisha fine pass from Bong tobeat the Circus That JustKeeps Giving on Saturday,
he popped up again onTuesday to blast homeagainst Bristol City.We said on the Roar last
week that when (not if)Bobby does score at theAmex, it will raise the roof.Thank Perry that it’s kept inplace by a couple of sturdyarches.This week’s guest is the
award-winning head ofmarketing at the Albion,Tom Gorringe.
