Welcome you to the August / September issue of SK Cheadle Hulme & Cheadle. The sun is shining and hopefully we will all have a lovely summer. Who knows with the international travel ban still affecting us; maybe we can get to see some parts of Britain we haven’t seen before!

Have the events over the last year made you think about setting up your own business? If the answer is yes, it would be well worth your while to read Peter Bevans article first. Page 12 If you have a little one starting school this September, Lady Barn House School have sent over a useful guide on getting your child to feel more confident and ready to learn when they join. Page 26.

As things are now getting back to our new normal, can I please remind you to contact the organisers of the events and activities we have in the magazine. People and groups will be going at their own pace so it’s best to check up before you go than be disappointed on the day.

Well, I’m off for an ice lolly, hope you enjoy the read and I’ll see you next time.

All the best

OSTEOARTHRITIS

rthritis affects around 10 million people in the U.K. Those suffering with the condition will often feel pain and stiffness around 1 or more joints as well as difficulty performing everyday activities. This can cause low mood and a feeling of isolation.

There are a number of different forms of arthritis, including rheumatoid, psoriatic or reactive arthritis.

In the majority of cases (around 8.5 million) people in the U.K. who are given the diagnosis of ‘arthritis’ have the condition ‘Osteoarthritis’.

Osteoarthritis is characterised by ‘wear and tear’ in the joint(s) of the body through normal ageing, but it can be accelerated and come on earlier in life through heavy and repetitive overuse of these joints. Factors such as genes, weight and a history of injuries or accidents of the joint(s) can also lead to osteoarthritis. It most often affects hips and knees but spines, hands, wrists and ankles are also frequently problem areas.

Wear and tear causes thinning of the discs or cartilage between the joint bony surfaces and subsequent friction. Pain, inflammation and bony deposits (osteophytes) resulting from this causes the surrounding soft tissue to shorten and the person reduces use of the joint.

Although this might sound scary, there are many ways in which people with osteoarthritis can help themselves to lead an active life.

Osteopaths can not only treat to ease the symptoms in the short term, but also create an action plan to keep you living a full and active lifelong term.

Advice: NHS guidelines shows that, together with weight loss, pain medication (as appropriate) and exercise, Osteopathy, physiotherapy, and other

manual treatments including massage can improve joint range of movement (both of the affected joint and related joints), relieve pain, promote better blood flow to the joint, increase flexibility and improve quality of life for those with Osteoarthritis.

Stay active - research shows that gentle encouragement or, even better, strengthening of the muscles around the joint can really help ease the pain and keep the joint mobile.

Try to avoid exercise or activity which puts a lot of weight through the arthritic joint. For example, swimming or cycling are preferable over running if you have knee or hip arthritis.

Stretching helps to keep the muscles supporting the arthritic joint(s) supple and mobile.

Stay positive - research shows that quite a number of people with arthritis showing on XRays or MRI scans are completely free of symptoms.

If you would like a chat or some advice on how we can manage your osteoarthritis symptoms, give us a call at Bramhall Osteopathic Practice.

We have a dedicated team of experienced practitioners offering a range of treatments and modalities to support you to help you live better.

KIDS CAR BOOT SALE

ids Car Boot events help families MAKE and SAVE money and donate to Barnardo’s. The indoor events have 3 elements to them – the first is Mum’s, Dad’s/Children “SELLING” and “BUYING”, the second is children “SWAPPING” and the third is “DONATING”.

The events enable families to trade in a fun and safe environment, recycling their unwanted items in the community, buying themselves a bargain or selling their unwanted Toys, Games, Books and Clothes and making themselves a little extra money.

RUNNING TIMES 9:00am – Stall holders arrive… Somebody will be there to meet and greet you and explain what you need to do. To make your life easy, make sure you load your table in last, so when you arrive at the event, it’s the 1st thing to come out of your car.

10:00am – Once all the stall holders are all set up, the customers are let in.

11:00am – We have a Swap Shop Session for the children.

12:00 noon – Barnardo’s arrive at the end of our event and anything you have not managed to sell, if you want to, you can leave it behind at their donation point… Saves you having to take it home!

The nest event is Sunday 1st August – 10am – 12pm at Kingsway School (lower site) High Grove Road, Cheadle, Stockport, SK8 1NP. Also running on 5th September.

Inspired by the 1940’s

S

ummer is here and let’s celebrate with some cool, sunbathing garments. This summer’s fashion is inspired by much of the 1940s fashions.

Synched at the waist, fluffed up sleeves and a nice, smart skirt, or baggier trousers.

Dresses with tiered dress are very much in and are so simply made, provided you can sew a straight line. The measurements below, are that you need for a tiered skirt, and the beauty of it is, you just need to adjust the numbers to suit your shape. I suggest grabbing an old, or unloved sheet and having a go (or you can rip the one of the bed right now! Go crazy! It’s summer!). Upcycling and repurposing has never been so popular.

How to make a tiered skirt.

You will need your 1m 150cm fabric and 4cm wide elastic for your waist.

Cut these rectangles on a folded cloth (I have used measurements for the National average - Size 16) Tiers are cut Height by Width Tier 1 35cm by 50 cm Tier 3 20cm by 60 cm Tier 4 35cm by 70 cm 1 - Sew the sides of Tier 1, 2 and 3 to make 3 rings.

2 - On Tiers 2 and 3, run a hand sewn running stitch along the top edge. You will pull this to create a gather so make sure your stitching is strong. (I use extra strong thread or 2 threads).

3 - Fold the top tier down 1cm, press and another 5cm. Leave and opening in which you will insert elastic to fit around your waist 10 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

measurement (plus a little to sew the elastic together. Make sure you sew the casing closed when you’ve inserted the elastic) 4 - Now pull the gathering thread on Tier 2 to match the bottom of Tier 1. Pin these together and sew. This is where you can be adventurous. Your seam can be on the outside to give a raw, unfinished look. It’s very much in and very much ‘now’.

5 - Repeat this with Tier 3 and on Tier 3, hem the bottom to suit, so try it on and make sure you’re happy with the length.

Now run, free and frolicking in the fields, and have some summery fun.

You can make the tiers shorter, and less gathered for children. Have a Mum and Me matching outfits with your little one.

For those of you fancying making some cargo shorts or pants, also very much in, why not have a look at my Youtube channel for the tutorial on how to take your own measurements and cutting out a pattern yourself. It’s quick and easy and the zip fly is nowhere near as tricky as the Great British Sewing Bee makes out. Even I can do it, so it can’t be that bad.

See you next time, have a fabulous summer, and don’t forget the Factor 30, it’s going to be a hot one.

SOLE TRADER V LIMITED COMPANY?

S

tarting your own business is definitely very exciting. You are about to make your ideas a reality and start a process that can be very rewarding though not without risk. Your challenge is to take your enthusiasm, drive and skill set and turn them into a successful business.

One of your first decisions is to decide to conduct your business either as a sole trader or as a limited company. If high profits of £50k+ per year are forecast only from years 2 or 3 (or never), then consider starting to trade as a sole trader. You can make a start as a sole trader, put your toes in the water, and then sell your business to your own limited company in the future if profits rise.

Setting up a limited company immediately unleashes a legal responsibility along with higher levels of administration but the tax advantages of ‘being limited’ only really start to ‘kick-in’ with profits of around £50k per year.

Also consider that because of the complexity of limited company accounts your accountant’s fees will be higher. So for some, a limited company may not be the appropriate entity at first.

However the decision to be a sole trader or trade as a limited company sometimes is made based on factors other than profit levels and rates of tax. The limited company is a legal entity in its own right so if things do go very wrong it is the company in the spotlight not you. (Though a director of a company can be called to account if a company has been negligent or irresponsible in some way). The sole trader can be personally sued and risks their own assets if their business fails and owes creditors money. It may even be the case that you have a client or clients that you are about to work for and they stipulate that they can only engage you as a supplier if you are….and they tell you which entity they are only prepared to deal with.

Starting as a sole trader is easy. You simply register with HMRC, make sure you have

12 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

appropriate insurance cover and ideally set up a separate bank account for all your business transactions.

Setting up a company appears quite easy and there are many on-line offerings that can assist with the process but complexity lies in the details. A company can have different classes of shares and there could be advantages in starting the company with a few different share types allocated to yourself and your spouse (if you have one), and to children over the age of 18 years.

Including family members as shareholders does not mean they are at risk nor responsible for the company in some way. They are simply shareholders, and therefore can be paid dividends directly from the company. Dividends of up to £2000 a year are tax free and therefore this is a fantastic method of extracting profits from your company.

With a limited company, remember that it is a separate legal entity. It is not you! It must have its own bank account, must file annual accounts in a specific format as well as a corporation tax return.

I began by suggesting that starting a business was exciting which it is, but make sure you make the correct decision of which trading entity to use. Let your accountant guide you because in addition to the points mentioned above, your own circumstances, and the type of business you are embarking on are also factors involved in making the right choice.

HEALTH CARE CONCESSION

W

hen we meet with potential new clients and their family members, we of course, talk about the specific needs of the individual and share our knowledge and experience to ensure we provide the best care and support possible. We also see our role as helping clients understand what other services and financial help is available to them, especially important if they are new to home care.

SMI – Council Tax Discount is one of the topics we share, and this potentially applies to tens of thousands of people who are entitled to a council tax discount and many people could be missing out due to a lack of awareness about the concession. It is available to those who are medically certified as being ‘severely mentally impaired’ (SMI). For example, this may be the case if they have dementia (including Alzheimer’s), Parkinson’s, severe learning difficulties or have had a stroke. It will depend on each individual’s case and simply having been diagnosed doesn’t automatically mean they qualify – a doctor must also certify they are severely mentally impaired.

If someone is diagnosed as SMI they can be ‘disregarded for council tax purposes’ in England, Scotland and Wales. To qualify for the reduction, not only does the person have to be medically certified as being SMI, but they also must be eligible for – but not necessarily actually receiving – at least one of a number of benefits such as disability living allowance. It is important to point out that some councils wrongly tell people that need to be receiving such benefits, but that is not correct, the law simply states that you need to be eligible for them.

14 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

For example: A 100% discount – if they are diagnosed as SMI and live alone.

A 25% discount – living with someone who’s SMI and no other adults, or only adults who have also been disregarded for council tax purposes, in effect a single person’s discount.

No discount applies if living with two or more adults who are eligible to pay council tax.

Guide to making a Claim Contact the local authority and request a claim form and register for a council tax discount. Obtain a doctor’s diagnosis, in some cases, the written diagnosis will need to be attached to the claim, others will ask for the doctor’s details and they will be contacted directly for confirmation.

Evidence of eligibility for relevant benefits may also be required.

The claim process varies by area, so we recommend seeking further advice from the websites below before submitting a claim. www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/s evere-mental-impairment-dementia-counciltax-rebate/ & www.gov.uk/apply-council-taxreduction

Mindset Advice

REDEFINING TRANSFORMATION

A

s we move through the summer this year, there will be, as ever, many people in search of a physical (and possibly mental) ‘transformation’, and this is likely to be exaggerated this year after the lockdowns we have endured.

Realistically, I believe that the vast majority of these people will NOT achieve ‘a transformation’.

Yes, it is greatly desired, and yes, people are willing to put in some effort, but the reality is that people just don’t really believe that they are possible.

Many people will live for most of their lives with a body and a lifestyle that they do not feel they have control over. People become resigned to the belief that they are enslaved by their impulses, cravings and destructive behaviours.

This is reflected globally, whereby almost 70% of the developed world are overweight or obese, and locally, by the sheer volume of people I work with for weight loss or addiction each week. Of course, some people are genuinely happy, active and healthy in a plus size, but there are a great many more who desire change but cannot achieve it.

Part of the problem is the gimmick of transformational change perpetuated by the world of celebrity. Too often well known people lose a vast amount of weight very quickly, before almost immediately starting to talk about their ‘secrets of weight loss’ on social media. These very ‘special and secret’ exercise routines and/or diets which (may or may not have) resulted in their transformation will soon be made available for everyone purely out of the goodness of their heart, oh, and just £99.

Some people will buy it… and fail. Others will become annoyed by it and self-destruct yet more. Either way, it is damaging.

The truth is, anyone can lose weight very quickly if the promise is great enough, and whether it is healthy or sustainable doesn’t come into it. Sadly, selling thousands of £99 programmes is more than enough of a ‘promise’ for many

16 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

celebrities to drop the pounds rapidly, but even more sadly, there is no such ‘promise’ for the end users of these programmes. Once the £99 is gone, the motivation soon follows as it becomes clear that rapid weight loss is only ever really possible by starving yourself and over training.

So, what can we do about the unhelpful way that body transformation is packaged up and sold to the public?

We can redefine it… as this.

“Physical and mental transformation is achieved simply by making a few small manageable lifestyle changes and maintaining them consistently over a long period of time.”

I know, it’s hardly ‘click bait’, but I am just not interested in rapid transformation.

Albeit crude, the ‘easy off, easy on’ analogy usually holds. If something has changed too rapidly it is generally less sustainable.

In my career, I have overseen several high profile and celebrity transformations, most recently Colson Smith (or Craig Tinker from Coronation Street), and you will not find any of my clients selling a quick solution to emulating their results. This is because there is no quick fix secret. Every one of the people I have worked with has followed the above approach, stuck with it for a long time and enjoyed sustainable results. Colson tells his story in a short YouTube documentary of his journey, which is, you guessed it, selling nothing. It is just an honest and inspirational story that has helped more people than any £99 programme ever has.

SUMMER FLOWER FORAGING FOR YOUR HOME

L

ots of us have recently been filling our plant pots with faux plants and stems and they’re a fantastic idea. Not as much watering, don’t require repotting and they do look fab. But it’s Summer, we’re out and about more in our gardens, woodlands and green spaces everywhere. I’m not the best gardener, if it looks pretty I keep it. There are orange and yellow flowers all around my little pond and it has to be said they’re invading spaces they’re not meant to, so I’ve picked them not for the bin, but plonked them into a jug in the kitchen and I love them.

Lots of us have recently been filling our plant pots with faux plants and stems and they’re a fantastic idea. Not as much watering, don’t require repotting and they do look fab. But it’s Summer, we’re out and about more in our gardens, woodlands and green spaces everywhere. I’m not the best gardener, if it looks pretty I keep it. There are orange and yellow flowers all around my little pond and it has to be said they’re invading spaces they’re not meant to, so I’ve picked them not for the bin, but plonked them into a jug in the kitchen and I love them.

Tall, willowy stems look good on their own, especially if you’re a minimalist kinda gal or guy.

Move away your magazines and remotes on the coffee table for a vase of tall green leaves from the woods. Our ancient British woodlands are a fabulous place to forage. There are lots but wild garlic likes to grow in shady spots and is prolific in woodland with it’s pretty white flowers and lush green leaves, these can be eaten so try in some cooled boiled new potatoes.

28 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

Honeysuckle is a beautifully sweet smelling flower found climbing as tall as 6 metres, clinging on to trees to find the sun. They have a structural appearance in orange or red and make for a beautiful centrepiece. Add some greenery to give it a backdrop for your dining table.

You don’t need to have a big stash of vases either. Lots of things you find around the home look very cool with plants in. Coffee tins to display in the kitchen, glass jars on the dining table, bottles in the hall, wicker baskets with stems gathered in the lounge, even tie up with string and hang anywhere.

Something on its own or repetition works really well. Odd numbers of vases if they’re gathered together, like 3 of different heights together or in a row also works. Add a picture and a candle to create more texture and interest. Your bookcase can be a fabulous place for flowers, lie a few flat and pop a small vase on top. If you have children you could press some wild flowers and put them in a frame.

Have some fun whilst getting some exercise and come back with some treasure.

Charity News

DETERMINED SUPPORTERS VOW TO RACE FOR LIFE

P

EOPLE are being urged to look beyond lockdown by making a date to join Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life in Stockport.

The charity’s muchloved events are aiming to return to the town this autumn but with socially distanced measures to keep participants safe.

Money raised will help scientists find new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer, saving lives as the charity fights back from the impact of the pandemic.

Every year around 42,300 people are diagnosed with cancer in the North West* and one in two people in the UK born after 1960 will get cancer in their lifetime.** The Race for Life events, which take place at Woodbank Memorial Park on Sunday September 19, are open to people of all ages and abilities. Events include a 3K and 5K. Siobhan Byrne, Cancer Research UK’s spokesperson for Stockport, said: “Race for Life offers the perfect opportunity for people across the area to run, walk or jog and raise money for life-saving research.

This year, participants will set off on the Race for Life course either alone or in small, socially distanced groups. Hand sanitiser will also be provided with participants encouraged to use it before and after the event.

Siobhan added: “We’ll ask participants to respect social distancing before, during and after the event.

“But we promise our events will remain colourful, emotional and uplifting. The safety of our Race for Life participants is our absolute priority. We’ve been constantly monitoring

30 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

the COVID-19 situation and have developed ways to ensure our events can operate safely, following government guidance. It may be that events look a bit different this year but we are working proactively with our venues and suppliers to deliver a socially distanced but great experience.

“Sadly, cancer touches almost every family at some point. Every step our scientists take towards beating cancer relies on our supporters. That’s why we need as many people as possible across Stockport to join us, to stand united and do something extraordinary to help beat cancer.

“We know that 2020 was a year like no other and we had to overcome many challenges thrown our way during the global pandemic. But this past year proves, more than any other, the value of investing in science and medical research and what can be achieved by working together. Just like science is our route out of the pandemic, science is our route to beating cancer. We are absolutely determined to continue to create better cancer treatments for tomorrow.”

People can visit raceforlife.org to enter. *** If any Race for Life events are cancelled, people will be entitled to a refund of their entry fee or can choose to donate the fee to help fund Cancer Research UK’s life-saving work.

Thanks to the generosity of its supporters, Cancer Research UK’s work into the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer has been at the heart of the progress that has seen survival in the UK double in the last 40 years.

The charity was able to spend over £33 million in the North West last year on some of the UK’s leading scientific and clinical research.

rthritis affects around 10 million people in the U.K. Those suffering with the condition will often feel pain and stiffness around 1 or more joints as well as difficulty performing everyday activities. This can cause low mood and a feeling of isolation.

There are a number of different forms of arthritis, including rheumatoid, psoriatic or reactive arthritis.

In the majority of cases (around 8.5 million) people in the U.K. who are given the diagnosis of ‘arthritis’ have the condition ‘Osteoarthritis’.

Osteoarthritis is characterised by ‘wear and tear’ in the joint(s) of the body through normal ageing, but it can be accelerated and come on earlier in life through heavy and repetitive overuse of these joints. Factors such as genes, weight and a history of injuries or accidents of the joint(s) can also lead to osteoarthritis. It most often affects hips and knees but spines, hands, wrists and ankles are also frequently problem areas.

Wear and tear causes thinning of the discs or cartilage between the joint bony surfaces and subsequent friction. Pain, inflammation and bony deposits (osteophytes) resulting from this causes the surrounding soft tissue to shorten and the person reduces use of the joint.

Although this might sound scary, there are many ways in which people with osteoarthritis can help themselves to lead an active life.

Osteopaths can not only treat to ease the symptoms in the short term, but also create an action plan to keep you living a full and active lifelong term.

Advice: NHS guidelines shows that, together with weight loss, pain medication (as appropriate) and exercise, Osteopathy, physiotherapy, and other

34 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

manual treatments including massage can improve joint range of movement (both of the affected joint and related joints), relieve pain, promote better blood flow to the joint, increase flexibility and improve quality of life for those with Osteoarthritis.

Stay active - research shows that gentle encouragement or, even better, strengthening of the muscles around the joint can really help ease the pain and keep the joint mobile.

Try to avoid exercise or activity which puts a lot of weight through the arthritic joint. For example, swimming or cycling are preferable over running if you have knee or hip arthritis.

Stretching helps to keep the muscles supporting the arthritic joint(s) supple and mobile.

Stay positive - research shows that quite a number of people with arthritis showing on XRays or MRI scans are completely free of symptoms.

If you would like a chat or some advice on how we can manage your osteoarthritis symptoms, give us a call at Bramhall Osteopathic Practice.

We have a dedicated team of experienced practitioners offering a range of treatments and modalities to support you to help you live better.

Improve your Balance & Flexibility with Pilates

R

egardless of age keeping fit is essential.

But so many forms of exercise can be hard on the bodies of older adults. Many have turned to Pilates sessions as a way to stay in shape while reducing the risk of injury that some weight-bearing exercises may cause. Pilates focus on controlled breathing and quality of movement, not quantity of repetitions.

Pilates is one of the best ways for older adults to stay healthy because it does not have the impact on the body that other forms of exercise do, and is not nearly as severe on the joints as most workouts are. If you’re an older adult and haven’t exercised in a while, Pilates is a safe way to restart a workout program.

Most conventional workouts tend to build short, bulky muscles more prone to injury–especially in the body of an older adult. Pilates focuses on building a strong “core”–the deep abdominal muscles along with the muscles closest to the spine. Many of the exercises are performed lying on a mat or in sitting positions, and most are low impact and partially weight-bearing. It also can positively affect postural positions.

Increased Stability and Balance Having good balance is the key to all functional movement and activities we do every day, such

40 | SKCheadle Hulme & Cheadle - August/September 2021

as walking and going up and down the stairs.

Pilates focuses on movements at the centre of the body instead of the extremities (arms and legs), where the potential for injury is greater.

Pilates teaches control and stability in a small range of motion, graduating to a larger range of motion as they gain control and confidence.

Increased control and stability is crucial for older adults as it can help them improve much of their functional movement, including balance and posture. “As people get older, they can lose some of their balance and coordination. Pilates increases strength and flexibility in both the core and the legs, which positively affects balance.

This, along with basic fitness benefits, can help reduce the risk of falls. Pilates is also a good way to rehab from surgical procedures like a hip replacement or knee surgery.”

Can implants be an option for you?

This was a recent case that we completed where we gave our patient the ability to chew and smile with confidence. The patient attended with failing upper teeth that were loose and infected.

These teeth were removed and 4 implants were placed. These implants were then used to support a fixed bridge. This enabled the patient to chew without struggling and to smile with confidence with teeth that were setup to create a natural look.

If you would like to know about which options may be available to you please give us a call or if you would like to explore more treatments similar to this, please call Jane on 0161-486-0743 to book in for a free non-obligation consultation
