Cuts in Respite Care for Disabled Children
Improving services for disabled children was one of the requirements of the Improvement Notice issued to Surrey County Council in 2008, after inspectors said Surrey services for vulnerable children and young people were 'inadequate'. Yet Ruth House, the residential facility for respite care attached to Freemantles School for autistic children, is reducing the number of beds offered from twenty to ten, whilst the opening of Applewood, the new children's home at Banstead built to provide respite care for disabled children with complex needs, has been deferred, even though it has recently been approved by Ofsted as ready for use.

Brockhill Young Farmers
Sometimes it is such a privilege to be present at a function, and this one at Brockhill School will remain in our memories. Opening the event in a beautiful marquee, was the school choir who sang The Lord's Prayer in Swahili. The Chair of Governors spoke of his pride in the school and the Principal explained the outstanding successes of the school.

Offshore Renewable Power
There has been a lot of nonsense spouted by some correspondents about the viability of offshore windfarms and their value in the campaign to reduce carbon emissions. Some have argued that they do not produce sufficient power, and others that the cost of building them is greater than the money generated by them.
