New resident in Walpole, Steve Jones, is proud to display some of his late wife’s artwork.

Donna Jones was a largely self-taught natural history artist and illustrator whose work was seen by few and never previously exhibited.

She was modest, yet proud and had little time for art critiques that critique art with language that is questionable.

A good picture should speak for itself without any explanation needed! (a bit like a good joke that should

Letters to the Editor

Lady Walpole history

I would like to update the Lady Walpole history in

regard to how she became available to the Town of Walpole for purchasing. The real motivator for her return to Walpole was Mr Barry Walton from Margaret River. Barry had been interested in the history of the South West for some years and when he read about the Lady Walpole he decided it would be appropriate for her to be back in her own home waters. After locating the boat moored in Bunbury he was joined by Mrs Monica Duke from Perth and Mr Keith Preedy from

Donnybrook in purchasing the boat in 2009. After

completing all the necessary steps for mooring, licensing and insurance the three new owners then organised the transport from Bunbury to Walpole. This seemed to be something of an event as a reporter from GWN News interviewed Barry prior to the departure from Bunbury.

It was with a great deal of very welcome and indispensable assistance from various local people that the boat was manoeuvred through Rest Point to the

launch ramp and successfully launched. I think that was an exciting moment not only for the owners but

also for the people present. I can provide image files of the removal from Bunbury and the relaunch at Rest Point if requested.

Distance, family and work commitments made it difficult for the owners to go to Walpole as often as necessary to repair and maintain the boat so they reluctantly decided to sell. Their wish was for the boat

to remain at her place of origin. This wish was granted when the Town of Walpole bought her in 2013.

The writer believes that the three people who arranged

to have the boat returned to the place of her maiden launch should be given some credit for the Lady Walpole being where she now is.

Walpole town jetty

The concerns raised by David Anning and supported

by Jack Jennings about the lack of bollards on the Walpole jetty are very real and it is surprising that nobody has been injured. Many of those using the jetty are not as agile as they used to be and need to be

able to stabilise themselves while tying up a rocking boat.

Government Departments are very much on the front foot in telling the community to act safely and prohibit many enjoyable activities such as camp fires as safety

concerns. But are not as quick to deal with issues for which they are responsible. Do we have to wait until someone is injured or drowned?

- Bob Laing

This exhibition includes a few examples of Donna’s paintings and a large body of her mother’s needle craft and also a piece from her late father’s heraldic art.

These works will be on display during the month of August at the Walpole Community Resource Centre in the Art Atrium.

Please feel free to pop in to take a look around, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and take a look at the beautiful artwork on display here.

As we know life is a journey that takes us on adventures for which we learn and thrive. Sometimes life will throw some pretty hard knocks and as adults, we try to navigate through these. Children look to their nearest person to help, but what happens if a child is not able to turn to the person closest to them? Are you in a position to help children in our local area through their journey?

Family isn’t always blood. It’s the people in your life who want you in theirs. The ones who accept you for who you are. The ones who do anything to see you smile and who love you.

Jack’s story

Hi. My name is Jack, I am a 12 year old boy who is in need of a permanent home. I have been living with a carer for six months now but they can’t have me forever. I would really like to go home to my mum but unfortunately mum can’t take care of me and keep me safe. My current carer says I’m kind, clever and can be cheeky. We have had some hard times, as sometimes I get angry at why I can’t be like all the other kids. I am worried that it will be really hard to find a forever family because of my age, but I will try my hardest to be good. Sometimes I get upset and just let everything out. I don’t mean to. My carers say it’s ok and they are there for me. I see a counsellor who I really like and they are helping me to understand that it’s not my fault. I have missed a lot of school so my grades aren’t very good. I have caught up heaps as I now have a tutor. I am really nervous about going to another family, hope I get to stay.

Foster Carer Jayne’s story

I have learnt so much being a carer; the understanding of impact on children who have been through trauma. Wanslea provides support 24 hours a day, offering great ideas, support and practical strategies for parenting through 24 hour phone line, regular staff visits, trainings and connection with other cares.

Fostering has taught me how to better parent my own children and has taught my children how fortunate they

are. We all have more understanding of why children may behave in different ways and not be so quick to judge.

Fostering is not a decision to take lightly. Fostering can be tough and challenging at times, however the reward of seeing a child develop and their overall wellbeing improve is indescribably fulfilling.

Children have the right to feel safe and be loved. Wanslea are seeking foster carers who are compassionate, flexible people to give children a safe home; someone to listen and talk with and most of all, someone to care and show them love.

Foster care can be in a variety of forms, from providing one night to a forever home. You choose what you have the capacity to give and what fits in with your life. Anything you can offer is helping and important. You might care for them briefly but the love and lessons you give will last forever.

If you live in the Great Southern and are interested in learning more about fostering a child, please visit www.fosternow.com.au or call 9843 0077

I often wondered if I was ready to foster, then I realised no child was ready to come into foster care

Farmsafe WA Alliance urges care when working with animals Farmsafe WA Alliance urges the farming industry and any visitors to farms to continue to “Think Safe, Be Safe”.

Many of us have had a ‘close call’ during our time at work – this is magnified when working alone, working with animals, working at heights and with machinery, which is the norm on many farms. Statistics show that more accidents occur during busy times on the farm and during school holiday periods. Farmsafe WA Alliance urges everyone to be proactive regarding farm safety.

Maree Gooch, Project Director of Farmsafe WA Alliance said “We can never underestimate the unpredictability of animals. Accidents can happen for so many different reasons. Large animals including cattle and horses magnify some of the risks of working with animals.”

Providing a safe workplace is an important part of doing business on farms. Farmsafe WA Alliance is continuing to work hard to provide effective solutions regarding the implementation of farm safety systems.

The Farmsafe WA Alliance provides information for their members as part of their commitment to providing advocacy and support to the agriculture industry and continues to campaign for, and on behalf of, farm safety.

Don’t risk it, be fire safe at home this August Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) data shows more people die in house fires in August than in any other month, with a total of 14 deaths since 2000. Thirteen people were injured and two died during August last year alone.

Already there has been one death and 24 people injured as a result of 306 house fires in the four months to 31 July 2017.

August is traditionally Western Australia’s highest risk period for house fires, prompting a reminder from DFES for the community to be aware of fire risks in their home, and know the simple steps to stay safe.

DFES Fire Investigation and Analysis Unit District Officer Andy Duckworth urged people to take care and ensure there were no lives lost this August from house fire.

“Each year people die or are injured under similar circumstances and yet we still don’t realise it can happen to us. All too often, the fire could have been prevented.”

District Officer Duckworth said an alarming number of these fires were caused by unattended heat sources such as cooking left on stoves, candles and flammable materials.

There has also been a spike in fires caused by electric blankets, wheat bags and fire places in recent months.

“Of the 300-plus house fires that have occurred in the past few months, the instances of unattended heat source fires make up nearly a third of these,” he said.

“Understanding how to maintain household goods like electrical and heating components is vital to improving your household’s safety.

“Learn about the dangers in your home, and put safety measures in place such as working smoke alarms and a home fire escape plan. One day these may save your life.”

Cashless trading comes to town! ‘For Sale’ – And no money needed!

The nation-wide cash-free trading exchange system provided by the Community Exchange System of Australia (www.communityexchange.net.au/), is open for free membership in Walpole.

“The new Walpole Community Exchange System (WCES), is tied up with more than 50 CES groups around Australia and will link members into a regional and country-wide marketplace for whatever goods or services they may want to buy or sell,” said Lou Beckerling, who has helped establish the Walpole CES.

“It is the newest exchange in the country. Joining is quick and easy (see details below), and it opens up a world of opportunities – quite literally, because CES groups trade with one another right around the world,” he said.

The key difference between the CES groups and commercial buying or selling platforms is that members of a CES trade with one another in an ‘alternative currency’, not dollars. The Walpole alternative currency is a ‘Wren’ and one Wren is equal in value to one dollar.

“When a member offers goods for sale – say a trailer of firewood – it can be priced at, say Wr200; or in the

case of a service such as garden maintenance, at Wr25/hour,” said Mr Beckerling. No cash changes hands, but the system credits the account of the seller with Wr200 or for the hours worked, and debits the account of the buyer by the same sum.”

The seller now has a credit balance that he can use to buy anything else on offer in the system; while the buyer has a matching debit balance and a commitment to the community until he or she sells something. The status of all accounts are visible to all members who can check before selling something to see whether a buyer is running up debits and has little or no record of sales. And to prevent chancers from taking advantage of the system of cashless exchange there is also a cap on debit levels.

In CES debit and credit balances have equal value. The system shows that one person can’t have a credit balance without someone else having a debit balance. A credit balance indicates a commitment to receive from the community, a debit balance indicates a commitment to give to the community... Neither is more valuable than the other

“So by agreement members aim to try to maintain a zero balance – buying back the equivalent in Wren of what they sell – and unscrupulous people are very quickly weeded out,” said Mr Beckerling. “The experience of groups right around the country is that

“On the contrary, members recognise that it is a great way to ‘buy local’ and foster community spirit,” he said. “The system has just opened for registration and once we have enough members we will organise get-togethers and trading days where members and their friends can roll up and join the fun – it’s free!”

Women’s Health Week: More than 40,000 women taking part in over 1,000 events across Australia When it comes to health, many women are great at caring for others but often put themselves last. Jean Hailes for Women’s Health will be helping women make their health a priority during Women’s Health Week 2017 (4-8 September).

Across five days, Women’s Health Week will be supporting women to make healthy choices. Women across Australia will learn more about their health and talk about issues they might not usually discuss. Free events, articles, videos, podcasts, recipes, tools and much more will be supported by a range of experts to help make women’s health a priority.

Content from Women’s Health Week has been informed by the results of Australia’s largest survey of women’s health. This year, more than 10,000 women responded to the Jean Hailes survey, offering insights into topics such as mental health and anxiety, physical activity, and sleep and fatigue. The results of this survey will be announced at a media launch on Sunday, 27 August.

More than 40,000 women have already signed up for more than 1,000 Women’s Health Week events in every state and territory across Australia. They’re taking place everywhere from the Kimberley in Western Australia to Coober Pedy in South Australia, Moranbah in Queensland and Lawitta in Tasmania. From health and wellness checks to afternoon teas, bike rides and movie screenings, find a list of registered events here: www.womenshealthweek.com.au/events

“Women’s Health Week is a fantastic opportunity for women around Australia to take a little bit of time out for themselves,” says Jean Hailes Executive Director Janet Michelmore AO. “They can get together with friends and share a cooking class or join a bike ride - it’s whatever they want to make of it. Women’s Health Week is about setting aside some time in our busy lives to think or talk about health issues and possibly think about ways you can make a few positive changes. By investing more time in ourselves, we’re better able to look after the ones we love and care about.”

740 West Australians could avoid a bowel cancer diagnosis each year Cancer Council WA offers advice on the link between lifestyle factors and preventing bowel cancer

Around 740 West Australian cases of bowel cancer could be prevented each year through lifestyle changes, according to Australian research. During the month of August 2017, Cancer Council Western Australia is spreading the message about how you can reduce your risk of bowel cancer. Research confirms that lifestyle factors such as poor nutrition, alcohol consumption and unhealthy body weight can increase your risk of bowel cancer. Currently 80 Australians die every day from bowel cancer.

Janet McBride, Great Southern Regional Education Officer at Cancer Council WA, said a large number of bowel cancer cases could be prevented by lifestyle changes each year.

“There are so many fad diets and mixed messages out there, but the evidence confirms that a diet high in vegetables, fruit and whole grains while having other foods in moderation will cut your bowel cancer risk. We can back that advice with data on cancer case numbers to emphasise why we urge people to adopt a cancer smart lifestyle.”

Ms McBride said red and processed meat, alcohol and carrying extra weight were all strongly associated with a higher risk of a bowel cancer diagnosis. “Experimenting with meat-free dishes, avoiding processed meat and having a few alcohol free days a week are ways you can easily reduce your risk of bowel cancer”. This, together with maintaining a healthy weight and quitting smoking provides clear guidance on reducing your bowel cancer risk. It should help motivate all West Australians to take simple steps towards a healthier lifestyle.”

Another key recommendation from Cancer Council WA is to use the free National Bowel Cancer Screening Program kit which is delivered via the mail to people aged 50-74. The kit leads to finding of early changes in the bowel, meaning up to 90% of bowel cancers could be cured if everyone used the kit. In the Great Southern region, participation is currently at 49.7%, higher than the state level of 41%. Ms McBride stressed the importance of using the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program kit when it arrives. “Look after yourself, use the kit, it could save your life.”

For further information about bowel cancer visit www.cancerwa.asn.au or call Cancer Council on 13 11 20.
