EDITOR’S NOTE Hi everyone, Autumn is looming and it’s time to prepare. I’ve noticed an abundance of berries and apples on the trees and bushes, it’s a shame that some will go to waste.Maybe a good idea for people in the community with lots to share to give to neighbours, (although most people do). I can see more jam making, cake making, pies etc, taking place this month, especially with the Bake Off programme on TV, I would welcome anyone’s favourite jam or fruit pie recipe, just email or post it in! Remember, regular updates of community information are available on our website www.beechpublications.co.uk after print deadline so it will always be current and up to date.Until next month

“It’s All Change At Breedon Carpet Care” Things are changing at Breedon Carpet Care. After almost 14 years of cleaning carpets & upholstery in homes, offices, pubs etc., Colin Wakefield has decided to retire and take things easier. Although Colin has finished, Breedon Carpet Care goes on, his son Chris has now taken over the running of the business and will still be offering the same “Money Back Guarantee” on all services provided by Breedon Carpet Care.

“We have actually saved money for clients who thought they may need to buy new carpets” comments Chris.

as one of the top trainers, not only in the UK, but worldwide, so clients of Breedon Carpet Care can rest assured their carpets & soft furnishings are in safe hands.

Stapleford Community Group are proud to announce we have been successful with our grant application to improve Ilkeston Road Recreation Ground for the benefit of the local community.

After talks with Groundwork Greater Nottingham a proposal was drawn up and our Chairman Richard MacRae spent many days talking to people on the park to get there views on the ideas. A full public consultation took place involving both users of the park and residents who live around the park, we would like to thank Councillor John McGrath who got Broxtowe Borough Council to produce the leaflets we delivered as part of the consultation process.

A grant for £49,999 has kindly been given by WREN (Waste Recycling Environmental Limited), this will be added to the £6,500 that Broxtowe BoroughCouncil agreed to put towards the improvement scheme.

The new improvements will include the following: New circulatory footpaths with seating.

Relocation of the two play areas, and combining these into one larger play area to cater for a wide range of ages and abilities.

Wildflower and bulb planting.

It has taken over 3 years to get where we are now and it’s been through the hard work and determination of Richard MacRae as well as Groundwork Greater Nottingham that we have been successful. We now look forward to the works being organised and seeing our plans turn to a reality which we hope you will all enjoy.

Pre -Retirement Courses in Beeston The photograph shown here are people who are approaching retirement and have attended a Pre-Retirement Course held at Beeston Town Hall last month.

This course covers everything you need to know in relation to retirement and all the delegates have enjoyed the help and support from the Nottingham & District Pre-Retirement group (a local charity who are celebrating 47 years in existence).

The only problem is that not many people are aware that there is a group right on their doorstep who ensure anyone within 3 years of retirement are notified of the many important changes in legislation which will affect State Retirement Pension dates. This will be particularly pertinent in relation to the Flat Rate State Pension which will start in April 2016. The course also covers the recent budget proposals in relation to annuities and other hot topics.

This course was an eye opener to all the delegates and many said they had not realised how much information was provided, such as “if I live in my villa in Spain, will I still receive my Government pension?”

“If I have a part time job will I pay tax and, if so how much?” or “how much will my investments be affected?”

“Can I still obtain credit when I retire?”

“If I have to go into residential care, will I have to sell my property to pay the fees?”

The Nottingham Pre-Retirement is holding courses each month at Beeston Town Hall and full details are on the website www.ndprc.org.uk or you can contact Phil Whitt on 0115 922 3824 to register for the next session.

Each delegate will be able to have a 1:1 with the speakers and course material, hand-outs and a 3 course buffet lunch will be provided.

A fee will be charged to cover room hire, lunches etc.

INDOOR MEETINGS PROGRAMME 2014-2015

Trent Vale Infants School, Trent Road, Beeston Rylands, Nottinghamshire, NG9 1LP. TIME: 7.30 - 9.30pm. ADMISSION : £2.00 Adults, £1.00 Children - includes refreshments Oct 20th 2014 GOLDEN EAGLE FUTURES Dr Alan Fielding The majesty of a soaring Golden Eagle makes it a sought after bird to see. Unfortunately, they are still persecuted by some landowners. Alan advises the British and Irish governments on how to protect these birds and tells us about their lifestyles and how it’s not just humans who upset them!

Nov 17th 2014 IN PRAISE OF TREES Dr Patrick Harding Patrick explains which of our trees are native and how different timber has been used for making all manner of objects. Some trees are steeped in superstition, some grow where worshippers gather. We’ll learn how to identify and manage them and why most living things depend on them.

Dec 15th 2014 BIRD MISIDENTIFICATION Dr Tim Melling Tim works for the RSPB and frequently gets requests to identify mystery birds. Some of the descriptions and situations are truly hilarious. This talk will send you away with a smile. You will never think you are poor bird watcher after this evening! Mince pies as usual - as it is Christmas.

Jan 19th 2015 DERBYSHIRE MAMMALS Debbie Alston There are some surprising mammal species in our adjoining county and Debbie is an authority on them and co-author of a book on the subject. We’ll look at the distribution and status of animals as diverse as mice to deer and wallabies to wild boar. Might some cross the border and visit us?

Feb 23rd 2015 ETHIOPIA Paul Bingham Sadly this East African country is remembered for the famine in 1984. It is a beautiful country with lakes, mountains and its own Rift Valley. Civilisation is believed to have started here. Ethiopia teems with history and wildlife, with hundreds of different species of birds, reptiles and mammals.

March 16th 2015 THE SHETLAND ISLES David Tolliday Britain’s most northerly islands are rich with wildlife; we’ll see birds, insects, mammals and plants.

The islands are remote and rugged; anything living up here needs to be tough. David’s superb photography captures the real ‘feel’ of the place, we will also enjoy some evocative sounds.

April 20th 2015 GIVING BIRDS A HELPING HAND Dr David Parkin David returns to tell us of even more species that have become near-extinct, but due to remarkable efforts of dedicated enthusiasts and scientists, they have returned from the brink. Fascinating stories of chance findings, good and bad luck and human intervention are expertly woven.

This meeting includes our brief AGM and is dedicated to our founder Keith Corbett.

There’s a new sheep in town that likes to STAND OUT from the crowd....

the UK’s first Choice Estate Agent Dedicated to selling your Home Fast and at the Best Possible Price

Hi, we are Will Williamson and David Roberts from Ewe Move .com in Beeston, we are here to help you get a fast house sale at the BEST possible price: here’s how we give your property a competitive advantage to get the attention that it deserves and sells quickly for you.

Free, Honest, Expert Valuation The oldest agency trick in the book is to over value your property to get you on board. We know that a property gets twice the amount of interest in the first two weeks, so if you get the price wrong you will end up having to reduce it FAR lower to make up lost ground. That’s very dangerous and could cost you thousands of pounds.We’ll give you access to our exclusive Hometrack Property Valuation Report. Only by pinpointing precisely the correct value can you be sure to get the best return in the shortest time.

Our valuations are free, so what have you got to loose?

Mammoth Marketing Power Generating 183 million buyer sectors on all major property protals - a staggering 95% of people find their new home on line.We are listed on hundreds!

Book a Viewing Online!

Most house hunters browse online in the evening, or at weekends, when old fashioned agents are closed (not us) We’ve created our ground breaking viewer booking system, so that as soon as your “hot to trot” prospects have seen your property on line, they can instantly book themselves a viewing, once they’ve booked, they don’t bother to view anywhere else! We’re not aware of any similar system in the world and our viewing enquiries have sky rocketed by 458% as a result!

We can help you MOVE ON so that you can start life in your new home.

Viewer Magnet Our brand is ewe-nique, it’s quirky and fun!. People love to see our Rent Me”or “Buy Me” boards, and because they are different, people remember them. That’s great for you, because amongst a sea of boring property boards out there, yours will rock!, and by standing out from the crowd, your property will get the attention it deserves.

AccompaniedViewing Viewing77days daysaaweek week Accompanied Buyers accompanied by an agent are twice as likely to place an offer. Some online agents offer a cheap service, you pay up front and they’ve got no incentive to get your house moved on, worse still they lumber you with the viewings. There are all sorts of risks by letting strangers through your door, that’s ok if you are a sales professional and can take of your yourself, but the fact is, many viewers feel awkward about being shown round by the owner because they don’t like asking questions for fear of offence.

We can make sure that all of your property’s amazing features are bought to life during accompanied viewings.

VIP Service Selling your home can be stressful, so we go out of our way to make sure you get unparalleled customer service. We’ll hold you hand every step of the way, and be there when you need our help and support. We promise that you’ll get weekly updates and we’re always on the end of the phone, or available to pop round and see you.

We look after every part of selling your house from appraisal right through to sale, and can even help you find you your dream home!.

Book Review by Clare Lyons Carry On, Jeeves by P G Wodehouse This is the first of the series of wonderful stories about the relationship between Bertie Wooster and his man, Jeeves. Jeeves’ first job is to help cure Bertie’s hangover, and so their special bond is created. There are many more books in the series and all of them are equally beautiful in their locations and quirky, eccentric characters. None of the stories have shocking endings or explicit language but during a hot summer it’s rather nice sometimes to read something funny and light and with the guarantee of a happy ending. It is the tender friendship between servant and master that makes the books so unique, that Jeeves is always able to forsee the trouble that Bertie is likely to get into and have a plan in place to sort it out becomes the pattern for their relationship. It is touching that Jeeves is so clearly the real master, and works so tirelessly to keep Bertie in good standing with his complicated family and out of wedlock with a series of unsuitable women. The books are mainly short stories, and the writing does become a bit formulaic if you read them in quick succession, but they make a nice break in-between more taxing literature. Set in the 1920’s the books have become a great timepiece for the era and the great adaptation for TV by Fry and Laurie is always worth a watch.

Children’s Choice The Hueys in The New Jumper by Oliver Jeffers This is the first book about the Hueys, and if you like the unusual style of Jeffers then you will not be disappointed.

The illustrations are particularly simple and plain giving lots of opportunity for discussion. The thrust of the story is about how much people like to be the same generally, and not stand out or get picked on for being different, it goes on to explore the notion that we sometimes have an idea that does separate us from the crowd, and how we can manage that.

It’s a great way to introduce ideas about ‘difference’ with small children, but because the pictures are not childish, the book has also proved very useful to promote discussions with older children on the same themes.We have just borrowed the next book The Hueys – None the Number from the library to go on an adventure to find the number zero. There is also The Hueys – It Wasn’t Me if you get really hooked. www.letyourselfgrow.org

Bromley Library, AngelHRow Nottingham, was pleased to be one of the early Please House note there is no lift aon t Bromley ouse Lin ibrary partners on the City and County ‘Trent to Trenches’ project, commemorating World War One. For both our talks and exhibition, we decided to focus on stories with a local connection, concentrating on the East Midlands, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, and more specifically Bromley House Library and its members.

The exhibition has been made possible by the generosity and enthusiasm of the library’s members, who have offered to loan their precious photographs and mementoes, and to tell the ‘stories’ behind their families’ experience of the Great War. It will be displayed in the Bromley House Gallery and in the main reading rooms, and will include two and three dimensional objects and artefacts, displayed alongside photographic images of those involved in the war – many of whom lost their lives.

The exhibition will be open to the public every Wednesday from 10th September, 10.30am – 4pm We have a diverse programme of subjects and speakers for our Saturday lectures (£5.00 pp) and Wednesday lunchtime talks, which we are also opening up to the public. The talks on Wednesdays are free but tickets need to be reserved in advance. For further information about the programme and reserving tickets please contact Geraldine.gray@bromleyhouse.org, or phone 0115 9473134, consult our website www.bromleyhouse.org or just pop in!
