The Edenbridge Magazine • May/June 2018

Note from the Editor... Dear Neighbours, Will the rain ever stop??? Well, I can't complain about the weather otherwise nothing will ever get done. It's been a very eventful couple of months at magazine HQ which included a last minute trip to Holland as my uncle sadly passed away. He was a great man who was very devoted to his family. A very sad loss to my family indeed. RIP uncle Willem, you will be greatly missed. Some of you might remember that I have a weekly radio show about all things community, charity and fundraising. It's broadcast every week on www.channelradio.co.uk/2 at 10am. I've recently had some very interesting guests in the studio and I always love it when I get guests in who are local to us here. I've also got a new co-host in the studio who is quite a familiar face in the area, Joseph Wooltorton who runs LeGrys Estate Agents in the high street. He made a super debut in March and I'm looking forward to working with him on my future shows.

Other guests over the last couple of months have included Chiddingstone Castle on show 144 (pictured middle), Kent Fire and Rescue Service on show 139 (pictured above right) and ellenor hospice on show 140 (pictured above left with Joseph Wooltorton) who were recently named 'Care Charity of the Year' at the Kent Charity Awards. You can listen to any previous podcast on the show's dedicated website - www.thecommunityshow.net. I also had a trip to Fentons Rink in Tunbridge Wells which, if you didn't know, is the only dedicated curling rink in the South East. I joined the team from Crowborough Beacon Academy who have been doing extremely well in the sport. I think it's a great opportunity for youngsters to try a completely different sport and they were all so enthusiastic and passionate about it. Of course I had to give it a go while I was there...it would have been rude not to and I would certainly recommend you give it a go if you have a chance. You can find out more on their website at www.curlinginkent.co.uk. 12 | www.edenbridge-magazine.co.uk • info@edenbridge-magazine.co.uk • 01732 864 878

News from the Community Exciting and Important Discovery to join displays at Local Museum

Image courtesy of The British Museum Trust.

A rare hoard of 10 gold coins recently discovered in Chiddingstone is being acquired by the Eden Valley Museum in Edenbridge.

in Northern France and are thought to be of a type struck by the local tribes to finance their resistance to the invading Romans.

Claire Donithorn BA, resident archaeologist at the museum said, "These will be our first significant Iron Age exhibits. They date from precisely the time when Britain emerged from Prehistoric to Historic Times. Our aim now is to keep the hoard together and to ensure that it stays in the Valley for us and for future generations.”

At this time both South East England and France were occupied by Celtic tribes who were closely connected by trade and family alliances. Celts from England fought with the Celts in France. It is likely that the coins found their way back to Kent as the pay or booty of soldiers. Then, for reasons we can only guess at, they were buried and remained in the ground for over two thousand years until a metal detectorist discovered them.

Experts in the British Museum have examined the coins and identified them. The Eden Valley Museum was then offered the chance to buy them. The Museum leapt at the opportunity. Claire Donithorn said, “These coins are an important part of the history of the Eden Valley. They show that the Valley was connected to great events in European History – the Gallic Wars. Whoever buried them may have been involved in those wars and was probably living here in the Valley." The coins date from the Late Iron Age, about the time of Caesar’s invasions of Britain. They were manufactured in the region of Amiens

The Museum is launching a fund raising campaign to raise money to cover the costs of the purchase of the coins and of setting up a new display area in which to house them. Our target is £13,000. To encourage local support for this campaign, badges at £1 each will be available together with the opportunity to help finance the project through cash and online donations. There will also be a programme of talks and events taking place in 2018. Visit www.evmt.org.uk for further information.

Cost-effective telecoms for business or a medium to large organisation. JK Comms also provide various landline package for businesses, VoIP (phone service over the internet), telephone hardware including handsets, digital desktop phones, call centre systems and much more. Their services even expand beyond that of telephones and they can source great value, high speed broadband for your business.

When you compare the average high street from 10 years ago to now, you may have noticed that the independent mobile phone retailers that used to be popular have been replaced with shops dedicated to the network providers. Local family run telecoms company, JK Comms, used to be a high street mobile retailer, you may remember their shop on Station Road East, Oxted which closed in 2011. Since then they have been based on a small business park in Hurst Green and have moved away from being a general retailer to focus on business customers. One of the main reasons why this transition has been of great benefit is that JK Comms have more flexibility than ever with the main network providers to create packages that can really make huge savings to their customers. Co-owner, Martin Bodle, has been working in the mobile phone industry for 25 years. He still manages accounts for quite a few of his original customers from when he had his first shop in Purley more than 20 years ago! Martin's wife and business co-owner, Sandie, joined in 2005. Over the years the services of JK Comms have grown to include much more than simply great value mobile solutions for business. Working with a wide range of providers they are able to assist with all your business office needs, whether you're a small home-based business

How many times have you spoken to your network provider and not had a dedicated person to deal with your problem or query? Or had to wait such a long time just to get through to someone? Not at JK Comms, that's for sure. All clients have a dedicated account manager so they'll speak to the same person each time meaning your queries can be dealt with so much more efficiently. Customer service is of the utmost importance. They'll set up a new handset for you, or provide you with a loan handset while your current one is being repaired - no problem! They're more than happy for customers to pop into their office or they'll come to you - just some of the benefits of dealing with a local company. With a huge pool of knowledge they are happy to offer advice on things such as travelling abroad, SIM swaps, finding the right phone for your needs. In an ever changing world it's hard to keep up-to-date with the latest technology yourself. JK Comms are fully aware of the latest developments, it's their business, and will work with you to ensure you're making the most efficient use of latest technology. If you're coming to the end of your phone contract, give the team a call. They'll look at your requirements, review your current situation and come back with some costeffective solutions. You've got nothing to lose and everything to gain! I did just that myself and haven't looked back. Call 01883 722 767, email sales@jkcomms.com or visit their website www.jkcomms.com.

Relyon Cars celebrating 50 years transfers with ample space for luggage. Don't think that it's only taxis you can hire from Relyon Cars, they also provide a courier and light small removals service. Relyon have a fleet of long-wheel-base, high-roof vans that can carry any load up to 1.5 tonnes to any mainland UK destination. They also have a large Luton van with side curtain and tail lift, ideal for transporting more bulky items. All vehicles are fully insured, driven by experienced drivers so you know your package will arrive on time, every time. Photo with kind permission by Eden Valley Museum

The picture above will bring back memories to those readers who have lived in the town for decades. If you've not lived here quite so long, you might be able to recognise the location as that of the Relyon Cars kiosk. Originally established in 1968 by a Mr Chubb, he took over the old kiosk to make it a base for his taxi company, conveniently situated close to Edenbridge Town Station, and it's been their HQ ever since. For the last five years Relyon Cars has been owned and run by Spencer Gibb, with the assistance of his wife Lucy. They were both brought up in Edenbridge and remain very passionate about the area and delivering the best service they can to the residents and businesses here. Many of you may know Lucy who still plays regularly for the Edenbridge Town Band.

Their removal service can help you move your office or home and you'll get a fixed price so there'll be no hidden surprises. Being a local business, they know the importance of having a reliable supplier at the end of a telephone. They hold accounts for a number of local businesses already and are happy to take on more account work. Relyon offer their services 24/7 for prebookings and provide a dependable, safe and reliable taxi service to all their customers and their drivers are all DBS checked Why not pre-book today for your summer holiday or business trip airport transfer so you'll know you'll get to the airport on time and start your journey in a relaxed manner.

Relyon Cars - The Kiosk - Station Approach - Edenbridge - TN8 5LP Call: 01732 863 800 Website: www.relyoncars.co.uk

News from the Community Parkin-singers

We are also affiliated to Parkinson's UK.

"The group is for people with Parkinson's, their friends, carers and family. All very welcome. Nobody has to have previous singing experience, its very much a fun, therapeutic group, but it's also for friendship and mutual support...and a good old sing song as well.
