Raising awareness of heat pumps

Heat pumps are relatively rare in residential properties in the UK – there are only around 250,000 currently. This means that the vast majority of people will never (knowingly) have seen a home with a heat pump.

Nesta, the charity that focuses on innovation including a sustainable future, wants everyone in the UK to be able to visit a heat pump near them and get the support they need.

Visit a heat pump combines a digital platform along with recruitment and training of heat pump hosts, providing a full end-to-end service for the public to visit a heat pump and get further support to help them build their confidence. So far, nearly 400 hosts are listed and Nesta is aiming for over 1,000 visits in the next few months.

Anyone interested in being a host or visiting a heat pump can register their interest at: www.visitaheatpump.com

Lindfield Village Run

Welcome to Lindfield Life’s Lindfield Village Run event page. Here you will find our most recent information for the race.

The Lindfield Village Run is a well-established event that sets out two cross county runs: a 10k Village Run and a 5k Family Run. Both take place mostly on paths and tracks through the West Sussex countryside in the immediate vicinity of the village of Lindfield. They are old fashioned cross-country runs with multi-terrain, some slippery surfaces and the odd cow in fields!

Village Run Facebook page

2025’s Lindfield Village Run is scheduled for 18th May 2025.

Sign up to run this year’s Village Run on 18th May 2025

With Lindfield’s annual village run coming up at the end of the month, the streets here can often be seen bursting with eager participants, keen to get training for the event on Sunday 18th May.
Seen as one of the most challenging traditional cross-country runs in the county, Lindfield Village Run comes in two flavours; 5k and 10k – although the organisers recognise the distances aren’t quite exact!

Last year, over 600 runners took part across both races. However, with ever-increasing costs of hosting such an event, the organising team have decided to cap the number of entrants in order to be more efficient and avoid wastage of items like entry forms and medals. So, it’s a case of reserve your spot early; bookings can be made now online at www.kingedwardhall.org.uk. There is a possibility that runners may not be able to sign up on the morning of the run.

The event is part of a duo of fundraising activity with Lindfield Village Day (Sat 31st May), the profits from which go back to Lindfield’s King Edward Hall – a registered charity in its own right.
This year, the run is being supported yet again by local businesses Six Physio and Potential Personal Training – whose financial support helps to keep the entry costs down.

“The run is a highlight of our calendar,” Six Physio’s Alex Keogh said. “Seeing so many familiar faces of all ages running together is fantastic. Supporting this great community event, cheering the runners on and watching them cross the finish line is brilliant.”

Karate dojo open at Oathall in Lindfield

There is a new beginner’s class, for those wanting to learn karate in Lindfield.

The class started last month at Oathall Community College on Monday evenings, and Becky MacSweeney is the leader.
Becky’s own journey into the sport, begun when she went along to classes with her own children just over two years ago. She loved it so much, she started competing nationally and has ten gold medals to date, including regional champion two years in a row!
“I love watching people learn karate,” Becky explained. “Seeing them learn a form of self defence, growing in confidence and winning medals, as they do.”

Becky – who still trains six hours a week – is helped by Senpai Marli and Maddie, plus also Sachin, at Oathall (part of the Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill and Cuckfield dojo).
Lindfield resident Stuart Todd, who trains with Becky, said: “I love the elements of discipline, control and confidence that karate brings to me and those that I train with, from young children to those more advanced in years. My fitness levels and flexibility have been positively impacted and also been a huge advantage in every day life.”

2024’s Dash complete

By Ray Gower

Another Boxing Day Denmans Lane Dash has passed and what a brilliant day we had! This year’s Dash was the best supported yet. The weather stayed kind to us again which encouraged many more people to come out and watch the competitors, adorned in their various festive and fancy dress costumes.

As usual the ladies set off first at a sensible pace. We had a couple of former champions including last year’s winner Sophie Grimaldi defending her crown. But this year saw another name added to the illustrious winners list – Emily Phillips.
Emily was closely followed by Mae Robinson – a member of the formidable Robinson family. Competing in her first Dash, Mae was just edged out by Emily.

The men raced off up Denmans Lane at a rate of knots and included not just one, but two Dinosaurs who bravely tackled the race in what must be very awkward costumes to run. The race would not be the same without our resident dinosaurs taking part.
Still racing hard across the line, the men’s race was won by Charlie Payne competing in his first Dash, followed closely by Ben Rebeiro and former champion Lio Robinson, another member of the lovely Robinson family.

This year’s Fancy Dress winner, judged by Mark and Sarah Tampion Lacey, went to Rob Watts who wrapped himself up as a Christmas present.

I was blown away by the amount of support we had this year. The Dash has grown to become such a wonderful fun community event, giving everyone a bit of relief from the normal Boxing Day festivities and the chance to grab a bit of fresh air.
It also gives us an opportunity to raise money for deserving charities and this year I wanted to do something for the ladies. This year’s charity was Breast Cancer Now - a fantastic charity that supports not just women suffering from the awful disease, but a number of men and families who have relatives with the disease.
We all know someone who has had breast cancer or has had a friend or family member with it. It touches all our lives, so for me it was the charity I wanted to support this year. A total of £2,193.96 was raised for this great charity and I can’t thank all donators enough. It just shows how generous and kind our community is.

As always, I want to thank the community for their support and the competitors for taking part and making a huge effort with their fancy dress costumes. A massive thanks goes to all those who help me put this event on each year - I couldn’t do it without them.
Andi Frost and the team at the Stand Up were fantastic, as always. A special thanks goes to Andi for supplying the bottles of bubbly for the winners and my wonderful supportive friends from Lindfield Bonfire Society who manage the marshalling of the event for me. This year was the smoothest ever!
Thanks also to my dear friends Ian and Lorna Towner who managed the registration brilliantly, our fabulous Denmans Lane resident Roger Seymour for his traffic management and Mark Tampion Lacey who took so many wonderful photographs.

To conclude, I just want to thank our fabulous, kind and supportive community for the support shown in good times and not such good times. Lindfield.... you are the best! See you next year when the Dash will be ten years old!

Lindfield Horticultural Society

By Christine Cawley

Lindfield Horticultural Society (LHS) has been at the heart of village life since its inception back in 1945. Much has changed in the intervening 80 years, but gardening remains a passion for many Lindfield residents, and new generations are bringing a fresh outlook to how we tend our gardens.

The LHS is keen to embrace change, whilst still maintaining the traditions for which it is known and loved, and is inviting members and non-members alike to a Coffee Morning at the King Edward Hall on Saturday 8th February from 10am to 12noon.

As well as providing an opportunity to meet fellow gardeners and enjoy tea, coffee and home-made cakes, this event will highlight current and future projects planned by the LHS.
It will also feature the annual seed swap and the unveiling of the new 2025 schedule.

Other local organisations, including Greener Lindfield, the Eastern Road Nature Reserve and Lindfield in Bloom, will also be there to showcase their own aims and activities.
Along with the traditional flower and produce shows, talks and outings, the LHS is trying out some innovative new ideas in 2025, with gardening masterclasses, flower arranging workshops, visits to members’ gardens and a special rose event.
This coffee morning will showcase these and much more, and there will also be the opportunity to chat to the committee and to put your gardening questions to a team of experienced gardeners.

If you’re interested in joining the Lindfield Horticultural Society, you can do so on the day, visit www.lindfieldhorts.org.uk or contact Membership Secretary, Jacqui Essen, at membership@lindfieldhorts. org.uk.

Lindfield Society newsletter - January 2025

Gladman Development

The announcement of Gladman Development’s (GD) proposed 90-unit estate on the north of Scamps Hill kicked-off the year. The Lindfield Society submitted strong objections based on non-compliance with current planning policies. During protracted planning discussions with the Mid Sussex District Council (MSDC), GD filed an appeal despite not having a final ruling. The Appeal Inquiry was scheduled to begin on 10th December but has been delayed until 2025. The pre-inquiry evidence exchange showed that GD challenged the validity of the current MSDC District Plan, which currently excludes the Scamps Hill site from development. Due to publication deadlines, we cannot print an outcome, but we will have full coverage of the meeting on our website. Related documentation can be viewed on the MSDC website https://pa.midsussex.gov.uk/online-applications/ Using reference AP/24/0044, select the ‘Appeals’ tab.

Lindfield Society talks programme

Our programme of free talks continues in King Edward Hall. We roamed from the Trolleys of Lisbon to the Artic Home of the Polar Bear in 2024. In 2025, we’ll visit Treasures in St Petersburg, hear about writing comedy for TV, and walk the Sussex Downs with Ian Everest. A complete listing is available on our website and the Jubilee notice board on Denmans Lane at High Street. Our talks are well attended and provide a forum where the management committee can discuss current planning issues with the membership.

Website enhancements

We may have mentioned our newly updated website at www.lindfieldsociety.org.uk, which has an easy-toreach layout to find information on any of the above topics. The most exciting announcement is our ability to accept payments through our JustGiving page, so it is possible to join, renew, or make donations entirely online through the Society website using debit or credit cards of your choice. Your contributions will also be eligible for Gift Aid, which will benefit the Society over and beyond your donation. Please have a look and let us know what you think. We want to thank all our members for your continuing support in 2024 and wish you all a very happy New Year!

Success - Sun, stalls and bands!

Lindfield Village Day has been a key event in the calendar for 46 years, following the successful 1977 Silver Jubilee celebrations in the village.

Whilst the principle of the day hasn’t changed since its inception, the event has grown considerably in scale in recent years.

Lindfield Village Day is still run as a fundraising off-shoot of King Edward Hall’s management committee, even though only a few from the 20-strong organising team are actually on the charity’s committee. Every year, the team volunteers, led by co-chairs Katherine Alcock and David Tingley, plan every element of the day between November and June.

This year’s event saw the return of the RTFJ Stage, which hosted headliner band Murdoch’s Crazy Eyes, among others. The UpCountry Food & Drink Quarter boasted more than 25 vendors in front of the stage.

All photos by @ClareOzkan

The stage and bands in particular are only made possible thanks to generous local businesses – which brought in over £10,000 this year. Mark Plass, responsible for the sponsorship, said: “Running an event on this scale costs a lot of money, and we are truly grateful to our business partners for helping us make Village Day bigger and better in 2024.”

Elsewhere on the Common, over 130 stallholders were set up, six different performances took place in the arena, including the Children’s Dog Show, the Competition Tent included more than 100 entries from local creatives and, of course, the Firing of the Anvil started this year’s Olympics-themed procession, featuring hundreds of people parading down the High Street.

David Tingley explained: “We were delighted with the turnout and how the big day went – it’s a testimony to our dedicated team who give their time for six months to realise this huge event for the whole community. Plus the dozens of extra helpers on the day, of course – without whom we couldn’t do it.”

Save the date: Next year – Saturday 31st May 2025.

Lindfield Parish Council's newsletter - December 2024

Chairman’s Update

Scamps Hill – 90 house development Our understanding is that the developer has appealed against the time taken by MSDC to make a decision regarding the application received although we understand that MSDC will be defending their position.

The appeal is to be heard on the 10th December, we have not been notified of the venue yet. A representative from the Parish Council is hoping to be invited to speak at the appeal. LRPC continues to oppose this speculative development, in summary the reasons are: The site has previously been excluded for development in the adopted Local Plan and is speculative and not required to meeting housing needs. The highway proposals fail to meet current guidance for active travel and public transport and introduce an access at the least safe location on the site frontage with maximum negative impact to hedgerows and visual amenity. We consider that the Transport Assessment is flawed with errors, inaccuracies and unfounded assumptions.

If you want to read more about this application, then visit the MSDC website looking for planning applications ref DM/24/0446
