Welcome to SE21 This month I am going to ignore what is happening in the news and keep my fingers crossed that we were all able to meet up at Christmas.

By the time you are reading this, it will be all over and 2022 will be starting!

As usual I have rounded up all the great events taking place in and around Dulwich. The events pages start on page 6. January is usually a quiet month but we still have six pages of online and in person events happening in and around Dulwich. Please do check any event before turning up to make sure that they are still going ahead. I am sure there plenty of changes in the coming months.

Home Instead Wandsworth, Lambeth & Dulwich is determined to keep older adults engaged and connected, having donated funds that will help community groups and initiatives stay active. See page 24.

Link Age Southwark sent an update on their Big Give Christmas Challenge. Full details pages 28.

Last month saw the return of the Dulwich Charity lunch which I organised to raise much-needed funds for Link Age Southwark.

Thankfully the lunch was very well attended and we raised a fantastic amount for the charity. Please do take a look on pages 30 & 31 to see how we got on.

Until next time.

Winter’s Star Performers Garden Talk with Janine Winlaw | Instagram @janinewinlaw Whether it’s attractive bark, shiny berries or a splash of colour, there are lots of plants to add winter interest to your garden….

Beautiful Bark Betula utilis var. jacquemontii ‘Grayswood Ghost’ has brilliant white bark, which glows out in soft wintery light. It’s lovely as a multi-stem and fab underplanted with snowdrops and crocuses.

Prunus serrula is another winter showstopper with shiny mahogany bark striped with lenticels.

Parrotia persica can be grown as a wonderfully sculptural multi-stemmed tree. On mature trees, the steely grey bark flakes off in patches giving interest and texture in winter.

Acer griseum (Paperbark Maple) is a small tree with chestnut bark that peels off to reveal cinnamon coloured wood beneath. Or for a brighter, redder bark, try Acer palmatum ‘Sango-kaku.’

Fabulous Flowers Clematis cirrhosa ‘Jingle Bells’ has creamy bell-like flowers and evergreen foliage from December. Or for a splash of pinky brown look out for Clematis cirrhosa var. purpurascens ‘Freckles’. Both ideally need a sheltered south-facing wall.

Cyclamen coum are delicate hardy cyclamen with tiny pink flowers and silvery leaves (December to March) that make a gorgeous carpet under deciduous shrubs and trees with ferns and snowdrops.

Narcissus ‘Rijnveld’s Early Sensation’ flowers as early as December – perfect for those too impatient to wait until spring for their daffs.

Hamamelis x intermedia ‘Jelena’ is a shrub that makes a winter focal point with its delicate golden orange scented thread-like petals on bare stems from Dec and March. Great for bringing into the house for a scented flower display.

Winter flowering daphnes such as Daphne odora with its delicate clusters of pale pink flowers will give you a lift on a cold day. Edgeworthia, closely related to daphnes, has clusters of scented yellow flowers on bare stems in winter, for some serious wow factor!

Winter-scented viburnum such as V. bodnantense and closely related Viburnum farreri both have clusters of sweet-smelling flowers on bare stems.

12 | SE21 - January 2022

Stunning Stems Cornus alba ‘Sibirica’ (Dogwood), with its brilliant coral stems in winter makes a wonderful display in a largish group. I also like Cornus alba ‘Elegantissima’ which has variegated leaves in summer. Intersperse with gleaming olive stemmed Cornus sericea ‘Flaviramea’ for more impact or underplant with crocus or bright evergreen grasses such as Carex ‘Evergold’. Prune at least some of the stems hard back each year as young stems produce the colour.

Corylus avellana ‘Contorta’ (contorted hazel) has curling stems and catkins that make a lovely focal point in a winter garden.

Beguiling Berries Callicarpa bodinieri var. giraldii ‘Profusion’ has clusters of amazing purple/pink berries, which cling to bare branches - bringing a serious wow factor to the garden in winter.

Nandina domestica is an upright airy shrub with spectacular clusters of bright red berries in the winter against purplish leaves.

Ilex aquifolium ‘J.C.van Tol’ is an almost spineless self-fertile holly so has guaranteed bright red berries on dark into winter - or until the birds get at them!

Rosa rugosa roses such as Roseraie de l’Hay are tough useful roses with big red hips into winter.

Alternatively R. moyesiii has long orange hips and Rosa glauca is striking with purple grey foliage and red hips – all bringing jolly cheer in the gloomy winter months.

Squash & Black Bean Casserole Recipes from Suzanne James | www.suzannejames.co.uk

A

t this time of year when it can be so cold and dark outside one of my absolute favourite meals is a casserole. If you have made a commitment to eat less meat then you are going to love this recipe. Vegan (or vegetarian) casseroles are so easy to make and unlike the fatty, sodium-packed casseroles of the past, these whole-food, plantbased creations can be loaded with colourful fresh vegetables, healthy legumes and whole grains and gorgeous aromatic herbs and spices. Casseroles are a real winter staple in our household, I often make enough to last over 2 or 3 meals through the week.

Leftovers can also make a fantastic lunch, served with a jacket potato, and if like me, you have hungry boys who are less keen on a meat free diet it is easy to serve it with a meat accompaniment, like sausages or chicken & chorizo skewers.

Ingredients • 1 tablespoon of coconut oil • 1 medium red onion chopped • 1 red bell pepper diced • 1 green bell pepper diced • 3 cloves garlic minced • 2 spring onions chopped • 1 whole butternut squash, peeled and cut into ½” cubes (can use less according to taste) 1 can of black beans drained & rinsed • ½ teaspoon mixed herbs • 2 sprigs fresh thyme • 1 can coconut milk • 500ml vegetable stock • 2 handfuls of kale or spinach, chopped • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper • 1-2 teaspoons of chilli flakes (optional) • Salt & Pepper to taste

Method 1) Heat the oil in a large pot over a medium to high heat. Add the red onion and bell peppers and cook until soft (about 3 minutes). Stir in the garlic and spring onions and cook for 1 minute.

2) Add the butternut squash, black beans, mixed 14 | SE21 - January 2022

herbs and thyme and stir well. Stir in the coconut milk, vegetable stock, cayenne pepper and chilli flakes (optional) and bring to the boil.

3) Season to taste with salt & pepper.

4) Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.

5) Stir in the kale or spinach and cook for about 4 minutes.

6) Stir with brown rice and avocado. Enjoy!

Focus on Performance Not Perfection Fitness tips with Leanne Spencer | www.bodyshotperformance.com

I

’d like to tell you a little story. Some years ago, I went to a show on London’s South Bank called Circa. It’s an acrobatic show and these athletes were doing the most extraordinary things.

Balancing on one arm, doing jumps on stilts. I mean, incredible stuff.

Sitting there in the audience close to the front row, I had a really clear view of the action. What stood out for me was that despite these people doing the most extraordinary things, their bodies varied quite a bit. Some were tall, some were short, some are incredibly cut. There was lots of muscular definition and others less so, but they were all incredibly strong.

All of them were able to do all the stunts and all the tricks. Literally carrying the bodyweight of another, perhaps larger athlete on their shoulders whilst they were standing on one leg.

Performance Over Perfection What stood out for me was what these guys valued was performance over perfection. None of them were striving to get cut abdominals or bulging quadricep muscles. They were only focused on whether they could perform those stunts safely and with some degree of longevity, twice a day, 10 times a week.

I wonder how much we, as agile business athletes, value performance over perfection? Are we chasing this notion of perfection and that we need to do everything, we need to appear a certain way, we need to perform a certain way? Or are we just focused on doing what we can achieve, for example, on delivering something that is good enough? On making ourselves happy and not worrying so much about external validation.

Seeking Internal Validation, Not External If we were able to make that mind shift into really focusing on performance, not perfection life could be significantly better for ourselves.

I invite you to look at that in your own life. If you like, take the Circa analogy, are you looking for a chiselled appearance or are you just focusing on where that body can take you? The journey it can take you on. The experiences you can have with it, 16 | SE21 - January 2022

the connection you can form. Or are you focused on maybe the aesthetics?

You can apply that to any aspect of life, to physical training, to your work, to the connection you have in your social environments, to the hobbies that you do. You can apply it to absolutely everything.

High-Achieving People and Burnout One thing I do know about high-achieving people, we do tend to get very caught up in this notion of perfectionism. And I think it can be a bit of a hiding to nothing and take you down that route to burnout.

One of the commonalities of people who have burnout is that they very often described themselves as perfectionists. Let’s call ourselves performance-ists, if you like, I’m focused on what we can do with our minds and our bodies and not so much what they look like.

Thinking Creatively Education News from Alleyn's | www.alleyns.org.uk Sarah Hoskins, teacher of Art and Design Technology at Alleyn’s Junior School, tells us why Art is not just fun but also important for your child’s development. hen you watch a child drawing or painting, you see their total absorption as they concentrate on creating something from nothing.

Using just one’s imagination and creativity to express a thought, a feeling or an idea is a wonderful process, and a skill we should nurture in our children.

Art fosters experimentation more than many other activities. It gives children the freedom and choice to create something that is unique to them and this can lead to a strong sense of ownership and pride. Creativity has been linked with wellbeing, and the more children explore their individual identity and develop their sense of self, the more content they will be.

The ability to think creatively also benefits your child in their academic studies and their future career. Art activities improve children’s fine motor skills, which in turn help develop their handwriting skills. In addition, drawing, painting and sculpting help develop visual-spatial processing skills, which are beneficial to both mathematics and reading.

W

Getting Started Art is a fun activity and getting creative with your child is the perfect opportunity to spend quality time together. Remember: • Use as many different materials as possible. Junk modelling encourages your child to be resourceful and creative. You just need Sellotape, glue, and paint – along with whatever you find in your recycling bag.

• Try using their favourite picture or story as a creative impetus and use sites like Pinterest for other ideas.

• Let your child experiment – even if you think what they’re doing isn’t a great idea – some of their results will surprise you!

• Accept that being creative will be messy and put down a cloth or newspaper.

• Try to get along to galleries and museums (not just 20 | SE21 - January 2022

the large ones) so that your child can appreciate artists and crafts people from different cultures and eras. Many galleries also offer lower-cost or free activities for families as well as creative stimuli on their websites (see the links below).

Helping The Process Your child doesn’t need to create a masterpiece!

The process and the skills they learn during the creative activity are more important than the result. Let them choose the direction that their artwork will take but ask them questions about their work as it progresses. If their work doesn’t go as they planned help them to problem, solve or take a new direction.

Remember that there are no wrong answers in art. In fact, making mistakes can be liberating and present new and exciting opportunities. If you build in regular time for your child to be creative at home, having fun with art could become an expressive outlet you both look forward to.

Tax Return Reminder Don’t forget your SEISS!

W

ith Christmas behind us, we begin our customary countdown to the 31st January self-assessment tax deadline, for the army of taxpayers who regard 31st January as a target date. On 4th January 2021 HMRC had only received 55% of the 12.1 million tax returns due for submission.

However, this year’s task is quite different for many of the taxpayers who received support last year. For those taxpayers who cannot remember yesterday let alone last year, the support last year was the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme (SEISS). The support the government introduced to assist the self-employed through the COVID-19 pandemic. As a reminder the support is and was a taxable grant. In the words of Frank Sinatra, “..and now, the end is near.”

The first taxable grant, worth up to £7,500, was paid out in August 2020. That was followed by a second grant of up to £6,570 and a third grant, worth up to £7,500. Many self-employed individuals or business partners who met the SEISS’s eligibility criteria could have claimed the maximum of £21,570 in SEISS grants during 2020-21.

What’s that got to do with my tax return, you may wonder? Quite a lot, actually, as the three emergency support grants received via the SEISS between 6 April 2020 and 5 April 2021 are taxable.

The time has come for the reporting of all your taxable income from the 2020-21 tax year, by the self-assessment deadline for online tax returns, midnight on 31 January 2022. Hence our Frank Sinatra reference!

For many self-employed individuals, a large portion of their taxable income for 2020-21 will have come via the SEISS grants, as their businesses were forced to close due to lockdown restrictions, or they simply struggled to continue in business.

As usual, the maintenance of records of your income and expenses for the previous tax year will be helpful for completing your tax return. This includes records of any of the three SEISS grants received. If your unincorporated business was adversely affected by the pandemic and your annual trading profit was £50,000 or less, you

22 | SE21 - January 2022

would’ve been eligible to obtain the first three taxable grants via the SEISS in 2020-21.

These grants must be included in your selfemployment profit for 2020/21, and will be subject to income tax and Class 4 NICs. As a reminder, these grants also form part of the small-profit threshold for Class 2 NICs. On this year’s self-assessment tax return, there is a separate box within the ‘other tax adjustments’ section for disclosing the amount of SEISS received. Don’t forget if you understate your SEISS received, HMRC will remind you from their internal records. Therefore it is advisable not to let your amnesia affect you when reporting your SEISS. If you claimed the maximum amount (£21,570) of the three SEISS grants in 2020-21, this will be added to any other taxable income before you are assessed for income tax on the excess above the £12,500 personal allowance.

As a reminder if you claimed any SEISS in 2020-21, you should have maintained records of your claim and grant received. Therefore, the reporting of SEISS received in your tax return is not a laborious or time consuming task. Taxpayers and business operators are required to retain records of any income from sales or receipts from business expenses incurred.

Before you breathe a sigh of relief, don’t forget the fourth and fifth grants are also subject to income tax and NICs. These were paid out in this tax year (2021-22), therefore you will have to revisit them next year when completing your 2021-22 selfassessment tax return on or before 31st January 2023. So it is not quite the end of reporting your SEISS.

Community Initiatives Stay Alive Thanks to Local Home Care Company

H

ome Instead Wandsworth, Lambeth & Dulwich is determined to keep older adults engaged and connected, having donated funds that will help community groups and initiatives stay active.

The local home care company wrote a £500 cheque for Sing4All, a choir group which over the years has been a source of enjoyment for many people, particularly the older generation. The donation will go towards running costs and allow members to continue benefiting from Not only that, working with its charitable arm, Home Instead Charities, the care company has secured a £1,500 grant for local volunteer group, Link Age Southwark. This combats loneliness among the older population by recruiting volunteers and offering activities that keep ageing adults connected to others.

Tony O'Flaherty, owner at Home Instead Wandsworth, Lambeth & Dulwich, says, “Loneliness has always been an issue facing older people – far too many of them go for a long time without good conversation and company from somebody that cares. The pandemic has only exacerbated this problem, since shielding has prevented older people from decent human contact.

“I’m delighted to play a part in supporting community initiatives as they do wonders for the local area. I see first-hand how much it helps to give older adults something to look forward to and a reason to meet likeminded people.”

Home Instead Wandsworth, Lambeth & Dulwich provides home care to older adults who want to continue living in familiar surroundings.

Support includes companionship, home help, livein care and personal care, such as assistance with dressing and washing. Care visits are a minimum of an hour and delivered by caregivers who are matched based on personality traits and shared interests.

he long trudge through Christmas into new year is an often arduous and fruitless time for Dulwich Hamlet, commonly leaving the Pink and Blues staring down the barrel of a lowly league position with the whiff of relegation cordite wafting around Champion Hill’s nostrils. But this year it seems the Covid might have had the serendipitous effect of removing any such olfactory unpleasantness as the pride of East Dulwich find themselves looking up at the stars of promotion from anything but the gutter. Longstanding Hamlet heroic helmsman Gavin Rose has forged and tempered this season's squad into a hardened and steely razor-edged blade of an outfit that would leave a Middle Earth elf pondering long and hard what aspect of the blacksmith’s art they had neglected during their apprenticeship.

Emblematic of this excellence was a coruscant contest against Britain’s most senior portmanteau club and fellow high-flyers Ebbsfleet Unite; who, after looking sharp in the first half, were blunted, sheathed and put to the sword by a belligerent Hamlet in front of a giddy rabble at a ram-packed and rocking Champion Hill. Having trailed 2-1 at the

32 | SE21 - January 2022

@dhstorg

break, the Sons of Edgar Kail stiffened the sinews, summoned up the blood, and laid siege to the Kentish men’s crumbling defences, before leaving the field muddy but victorious at 5-2. Heady stuff.

The game is certainly afoot.

Now in normal times you might have been able to waft into Champion Hill at 2:55pm, with your mates, your dogs, or your kids, perhaps a couple of scoops to the wind. But not now. Because Hamlet home games sell out quickly these days, with most buying their tickets early via the magic of computer technology. So get yourself down to the Hamlet website at www.pitchero.com/clubs/ dulwichhamlet/ where you will find details of all upcoming men’s and women’s team games and the means to buy your tickets online well in advance.

And as ever if you fancy getting yourself some smart Hamlet gear or then click on the Supporters Trust online shop at www.dhst.org.uk or visit the mega-container club shop on match day.

These are indeed heady days and Dulwich Hamlet have never in their history been higher in the league. Can it continue? There’s only one way to find out. We’ll see you down at Champion Hill.
