IN THE COMMUNITY WOLLATON HISTORICAL & CONSERVATION SOCIETY The summer programme is starting and on Wednesday 28th May there is a guided walk to “Old Coach Road, Wollaton Canal and Martins Pond”. Please meet walk leader Andrew Hamilton outside Wollaton Library on Bramcote Lane at 7.00pm. Everyone welcome and it’s free!

WOLLATON VILLAGE DOVECOTE MUSEUM The museum opens on Sunday 11th May from 2.00-5.00pm. Special exhibition commemorating the centenary of the start of World War 1. As a result of lengthy research, the display includes panels of information and tributes to the eleven servicemen from Wollaton who died in service during WW1, plus photographs, artefacts, mementos and much more. There is also information on dovecotes and a recreation of a late Victorian parlour and scullery which feature new exhibits for 2014. There will be a guided walk around the village starting at 3.00pm and refreshments will be served.

Admittance is free but donations are welcome. Further details from Angela Gilbert, Secretary, Wollaton Historical & Conservation Society, telephone 0115 928 3414.

Long Eaton Operatic Society Youth Group proudly presents.......Seussical JR Seussical Jr is based on the works of Dr. Seuss and weaves together his most famous tales, Horton the Elephant, The Cat in the Hat and other characters from at least fifteen of his books. The Cat in the Hat is the narrator, and the show follows the adventures of Horton, an elephant who one day hears voices coming from a speck of dust. He soon discovers that within this tiny speck exists the smallest planet in the universe! On this tiny planet live a tiny race of creatures known as the Whos. Although ridiculed by the other animals in the Jungle of Nool for believing in something he cannot see, Horton stubbornly persists in his belief that the Whos exist. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant!

The youngsters are very busy rehearsing and are looking forward to presenting this lively production, brimming over with energy and a sparkling musical score, where everyone gets their moment to shine.

The show takes place from Thursday 3rd to Saturday 5th July 2014, starting at 7.30pm, with a matinee performance on Saturday at 2.30pm. Tickets are available with effect from 7th May 2014 by contacting the Box Office on 07864 033663, or from the Duchess Theatre, Westgate, Long Eaton from 10th May 2014, at their regular Saturday coffee mornings.

It’s always refreshing and inspiring to see another business starting up in the NG9 area, keeping our communities alive, this month the Grapevine Magazine visits Olive Creations in Stapleford a shop with a difference:

“I enjoy the creative side of my business and like working with customers who call in and request various items such as customised buntings, a photograph of theirs can be turned into a bunting for a special occasion or for a children’s room, or something personal to them, pop star, tv, film etc. I can take a design or photograph (maybe from holidays, travels etc) and turn it into bespoke wallpaper, currently there’s Julie Andrew’s Sound of Music wallpaper that I made on one wall of the shop, and on the other wall, along with nautical gifts on sale, wallpaper made from photographs of beach huts, giving a seaside feel”.

Word art pictures can be designed individually to demonstrate or reflect on a person’s or couple’s life together, ideal present for an engagement, wedding, anniversary, birth or christening.

If you’re looking for a gift with a difference or maybe something personalised specifically for an event, or an occasion, then pop into Olive Creations on Derby Road Stapleford.

Nichol Dexter the owner told me “I specialise in unique, personalised items and gifts, everything from distressed furniture, to bespoke wallpaper, customised buntings, wall art, illuminated metal signs, bespoke jewellery, personalised props, seating plans, and table headers for weddings, plus wonderful unique ideas for weddings, birthday gifts for children, parents, and grandparents etc.”

Coming from a creative background as a sign artist/maker and having worked with various materials including wood, Nichol makes unusual items, at affordable prices to sell in for the shop, this way she can cut out the “middleman” as items are made direct for the customer. Some items are bought in from suppliers, but still at excellent prices. She adds:

40

Please call into the shop or visit www.olivecreations.co.uk you can also order through the website too. Check out the face book page for immediate updates so you don’t miss out on promotions etc.

Nichol can also undertake commissions for signage, please call for details.

Care and Support at Home Fraud Protection Toolkit Home is where we should all feel the safest, especially as years go by. Scammers, however, have found a way to invade the secure lives of many by targeting older people’s post, the internet and telephone, as well as unsecured documents.

The ever growing incidents of scams is putting many older people at risk, threatening to strip them of their assets, their independence and their trust. It is not just the impact a financial loss can have on an individual, regardless of age, but the knowledge that one has been duped into providing personal information, signing an agreement or letting people into one’s home. Home Instead have partnered with Think Jessica, a charity which works to raise awareness of scams and supports victims and their families, in order to spread the message about the scale of the problem and help protect vulnerable people. Through the provision of useful and practical information we aim to raise awareness of the risks facing older people in order to do everything we can to prevent these devastating crimes.Think Jessica was set up in 2007 by Marilyn Baldwin, whose mother Jessica, suffered for several years at the hands of fraudsters who tricked her into parting with thousands of pounds. The charity is supported by fraud protection agencies, local and international organisations, and police forces nationwide.In partnership with Think Jessica we have developed a toolkit that provides hints and tips to help you avoid being affected by criminal activity.

Specific topics in the toolkit include:

52

Financial Abuse tactics Top Scams involving Seniors Top 5 reasons why Seniors are targets Impact of crime on the Elderly We have also provided a series of checklists that can be used to help protect you or your family members. These include: Criminal target scale Scam-proofing Seniors checklist Scam reminder checklist: Post Scam reminder checklist: Telephone Scam reminder checklist: Computer We will be organising some Free Scam Aware workshops probably during May and we will publicise it in this publication. I will also provide some more information from the toolkit next month. In the meantime, if you would like a copy of the toolkit please contact us and we will be happy to send one to you.

BOOK REVIEW BY CLAIRE LYONS

Flora Lively Investigates – Murder at the Maples by Joanne Phillips This is (hopefully) just the first book in a new detective series. Flora Lively is the owner of a removal firm, inherited from her father. Times are hard and a new national firm are moving into the town, so keeping their only client The Maples happy becomes very important. However, all at The Maples retirement home is not as it seems and Flora becomes embroiled in a series of sinister and strange events. The story manages to move between the various unsatisfactory relationships that Flora has with ease and the large number of characters is developed with skill, the story moves along quickly and is a very easy read. Flora is a very likeable character and the other characters are well formed and easy to imagine, it would translate well to a Sunday night family drama. The outcomes are not especially surprising but sometimes it’s nice to read a book that isn’t shocking, has no bad language and no sex. Joanne Phillips has written two other family dramas, you might enjoy Can’t Live Without and its sequel The Family Trap.

Christopher Nibble by Charlotte Lively CHILDREN’S CHOICE

This is an enchanting character, a guinea pig faced with the extinction of dandelions… but Christopher happens across a seed and has to decide whether to keep it for himself (he really loves dandelions) or share it with his local community. It’s a lovely tale, with beautiful illustrations, about caring for others, sharing and gardening.

There are another two adventures, and hopefully more to come, Christopher’s Catapillars and Christopher’s Bicycle. www.letyourselfgrow.org 56

Inner Wheel Club of Beeston During March, members enjoyed a visit by two representatives from Boots who talked about their products and members had fun when they had their skin types tested to tell them the correct type of cream they should use.Also in March, the 55th Charter Anniversary of the Club was celebrated with afternoon tea including the cutting of a celebration cake by the President Mrs. Judith Birkby accompanied by the District Chairman Mrs. Carole O’Connor.

The speaker was Dr. Roger Dainty MBE who is the Managing Director of Future Health Biobank – which is a family of cell banking services. He gave a fascinating and interesting talk about the present and future use of cells.

During the afternoon, items were collected for sending overseas, including many knitted squares which are sewn and made into colourful blankets.

Little Grapevine Tips Spring Cleaning?

Polishing is overrated wood needs polishing only once a year (use natural beeswax rather than silicone polish). The rest of the time, simply buff it vigorously with a lint-free cloth.

Remove sticky fingerprints with a drop of diluted white vinegar. Dusting must be done every week Work down from the ceiling to the floor using an ostrich feather duster (the dust will stick to the natural oils in the feathers) and a damp cloth. Clean fragile ornaments with a hairdryer set on cool.

GOING FROM GOOD TO BETTER Hi folks it’s me again with my utterings, just to let you know what is going on within the club. Following on from her very successful and enjoyable watercolour workshop mentioned in last month’s ramblings, Helen has again come up trumps during March with her in session workshops, drawing an Otter on black paper using a white watercolour pencil.

An interesting choice of both subject and medium but I have to admit that the finished picture really does come up trumps and is very striking. Nearly all club members participated in the fun and there were some excellent results from members who openly said that they couldn’t draw.

I think it was due to Helen’s tuition and the way she put both the subject and medium over to the members. Most of us would never have even considered using these materials in this way. All the information regarding these and other workshops are on our website in the

events page, so keep your eye on it, so if you would like to join in the fun then you will not miss out and guests are very welcome to all of them. By the time you are reading this we will have held our AGM and the new program should be up and running, where we are hoping we can whet your appetite and get you to come along and have a look at us. All the information about the club is on the website, plus a lot more besides. If you don’t have access to the net give me a call on the number below and get the lowdown that way.

screens in the comfort of their centrally heated homes, isolated from the outside world with all the magic and wonder that it has to offer the inquisitive child.

The group is determined to give young people the chance to discover for themselves the beauty, diversity, interest and excitement that the nature can provide. So, over the coming months the team will be talking with other local charities, local businesses both large and small – anybody indeed who can help them meet their ambitious target. The Chairman of the Beeston Wildlife Group, Martin Butler reminded us of the fact that he had read, due to their sedentary lifestyle, today’s generation of youngsters is the first in recorded history to have a shorter life expectancy than its parents.

This saddens him greatly. He quoted “We must do something to start to put this right but we are going to need some serious help” Martin will be manning the group’s stand in Beeston Square on April 12th to help the Trust celebrate its 50th birthday and he’ll be delighted to have a chat with anyone who thinks they can help in any way at all.

Beeston Wildlife Group, the local section of Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust, is determined to get more children interested in and excited about the natural world - but they need all the help they can get to meet their objective to raise £10,000 over the next 3 years! It all began when Springwatch presenter Chris Packham gave a talk to the group during which he expressed his real worry that too few kids were getting outdoors and exploring their natural environment. Inspired by Chris’s call to action, the group used the proceeds from the talk to fund membership of Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust’s ‘Wildlife Watch’ for two Beeston Rylands schools. Now, they want to build on these “first steps” to involve other Broxtowe schools in the programme providing young people with access and exposure to the natural world. In the age of Twitter and Beeston Facebook there are more distractions The than ever to keep our children glued to established in 74

Little Grapevine Tips

For advertisers sending in artwork.

Towels go hard because washing powder and fabric softeners leave mineral deposits in the fibres, which are then baked in as the towels dry.

To ensure you have soft towels at all times, wash in laundry liquid rather than powder, and take out of the dryer or off the line before they’re bone dry.

Soaking hard towels in a solution of water and white vinegar (145ml vinegar: 4.5 litres of water) will bring them back to life.
