Spring Cleaning: Getting the Spring back in your home.

At this time of year, many of you may be thinking about Spring Cleaning. But is it something you never really get round to? Let's face it, you probably already spend a large proportion of your week taking care of your home, do you really want to add even more work to that never ending list? Some jobs in the home are really just TOO BIG, and in order to get them done properly you need to enlist the help of a professional.

That's where Breedon Carpet Care can help.

Deep cleaning carpets is not particularly straight forward, even if you own or hire a machine, it is very easy to make costly mistakes. So if your carpet is looking decidedly grubby after the winter and you want to get it clean again, it's a good idea to call Breedon Carpet Care.

Here at Breedon Carpet Care, we've been cleaning carpets and soft furnishings for over 15 years. We’re not general cleaners who occasionally clean carpets, or worse, subcontract carpet cleaning to a third party. A large percentage of our work comes from people we've cleaned for before or their friends/family on recommendation. Don't think that because the carpet is being cleaned that you have to empty all of the furniture out. WE move furniture. Items such as the suite and dining table we can move around in the room. You don't need to completely empty your room. All we ask is you move the lighter items such as toys and lamps, small tables etc.

We'll move the rest, ... for further information, please contact Chris at Breedon Carpet Care see advert below

“ You Get The Most Thorough Clean Ever Seen Or It’s Free”!

That’s right, the most thorough cleaning ever. My carpet and upholstery cleaning is the best and most thorough you could ever have – if you don’t agree I won’t accept your payment.

Along with the purchase of your home and family car, your soft furnishings are one of the largest investments you will make. Professional cleaning of your furnishings on a regular basis will extend their life considerably as well as keeping them hygienic and looking good.

4 Reasons Why You Should Choose My Company To Clean & Protect Your Family’s Health 1. Thorough Cleaning – My method doesn’t leave any residue or cause shrinkage. It cleans down to the base of your carpet removing harmful bacteria leaving your carpet clean and healthy.

2. Honest Pricing – I promise no high-pressure sales gimmicks. The prices I quote you are fully inclusive of cleaning products and labour. A full complete clean AND no hidden extras.

3. Protection of your soft Furnishings - Your valuable soft furnishings will stay cleaner longer, vacuum easier and have improved stain resistance with our carpet and upholstery protectors.

4. Long Standing Reputation – My company enjoys a reputation which is second to none, many of our customers not only come back to us time and again but recommend us to their family and friends.

Local teen Emma Snow writes about various topics and events each month in the Grapevine. “A voice for the young people in our Community”.

Are you a slave to fashion? With the summer months just around the corner, new styles are slowly creeping into our high street stores. Diverse clothing is widely available, whether this be online or in a clothing store. Fashion is exciting.

Throughout the past decades, there have been iconic moments and styles which have inspired fashion today. But there’s no denying it can be difficult to keep on top of the latest trends.

Those who know me well say that I am a keen follower of trending styles. The different textures, fabrics and colours add diversity to my wardrobe. But do we live in a throwaway society?

For teenagers and young adults especially, we will wear our clothes for a season and then either forget about that particular item and push it to the back of our wardrobe, or throw it away.

British consumers spend on average £700 on fashion per year, which is slightly above the EU average of £550.

Is this figure surprising? No. Many of us

28

British consumers will happily pay the price to be considered ‘cool’ or ‘trendy’.

The consequences? We throw away our clothes, and this has a significant impact on our environment. This contributes to landfill sites becoming increasingly full, taking up valuable space which could be used for recreational purposes or housing, due to most fabrics taking years to degrade. Every year, 350,000 tonnes of used but still wearable clothing goes to landfill sites in the UK, worth £140 million.

What can we do? Instead of throwing our clothes away, we should donate them to charity shops or use clothing banks. Unfortunately, 41% of people say they are not aware of recycling facilities for textiles. We should encourage people to give their unwanted clothing to fantastic charities such as MIND, Cancer Research UK and The British Heart Foundation, which are just a few of the charities who allow for clothing donations, all of which can be found in the local area. More than 60% of householders in the UK say they have unwanted clothes and textiles stored in their homes.

If we donate to charities, we can help preserve our environment whilst also supporting medical research or clothing the homeless, depending on the charity.

You might find a bargain or a vintage piece whilst browsing your local charity shop!

Remember to be adventurous and maintain your own individual identity, having your personal take on the latest trends. Having said that, I still challenge you to head over to your wardrobe and pick out 3 items you haven’t worn in a while, and be sure to donate them to a charity of your choice. Don’t become a part of the throwaway society.

On top of this, you can build around staple items with fabrics and patterns which are trending at the moment. Be careful not to choose items you will look back on in photos and think, why on earth did I ever choose to wear that? Let’s be honest, we have all done it! So, are you a slave to fashion? As a consumer, do you wear the latest trends just because everyone else is? Even if you do, it is important to not become a ‘sheep’ and look exactly the same as all your friends.

Having timeless pieces in your wardrobe is key to saving your money and reducing the amount of clothing you throw in the bin, as well as staying fashionable year-in and year-out. For example, I depend on a pair of black fitted jeans which is just one of the building blocks to a perfect, timeless wardrobe. Items such as this can be dressed down for a day time look, or dressed up with accessories for a night time look.

Bro Mick Cook, Bro Jim Roy roh two trustees went to Aldi in Long Eaton to pick up and pay for six hundred and fifty pounds worth of food for our charity The Food Bank Long Eaton.

On the way there my wife Dame Linda Roy roh of the ladies glade who come under our banner said she would check the church to make sure it was the right place. Good job she did as they said they had no room!

We told Bill and we could not think of any where else Dame Roy suggested the salvation army so we went to their main office in Chilwell they said they would be very grateful especially at this time of year.

We went back too Aldi where bro Mick had his big van from his company HENRY'S OF BRAILSFORD Dame Linda and Bill and Mick loaded it and we delivered to the Salvation Army who thanked the lodge and its members for their generosity.

Bromley House Library, Angel Row, Nottingham Celebrating 200 years - 1816 - 2016 On the 2nd April 1816 at a general meeting at Thurland Hall, the home of Dr John Storer (the first physician at the General Hospital and the Library’s first President) the Nottingham Subscription Library started.

We have operated continuously since then, first in Carlton Street and from 1822 in Bromley House.

So 2016 is our year of celebration. We have planned a very ambitious programme of talks, events and gallery exhibitions throughout the year so that as many people as possible can join in. All our talks are open to the public and booking details can be found in our programme. file:///C:/Users/Geraldine/Downloads/2016%20 Programme%20(2).pdfn You can also call into the library to pick up a programme or visit the Nottingham Tourist Information Centre. But please note that all our events are proving very popular so do book as early as you can to avoid disappointment.

We are well into our year of celebration and enjoyed a super birthday party on April 2nd 2016 with cake and authentic regency costumes made by our multitalented Librarian Carol Barstow.

We are holding a Family Fun Day on Saturday 13th August; for a small charge you will be able to enjoy a day of art and paper crafts, storytelling, photography with Pringle’s tubes, face painting, teddy bear’s picnic, cordials and cake and much more.

Booking is essential and tickets go on sale in June.

Notable speakers in the autumn are Tom Huggan, Chair of Green’s Windmill Trust, Duncan Hamilton, twice winner of the William Hill Sports Book of the Year award and

Book Review by Clare Lyons Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom This has become a bit of a classic, and Albom has written a number of other ‘feel good’, inspirational type books.

Tuesdays with Morrie is a series of meetings between a student and their mentor many years after their first meeting.

Sadly Morrie is very ill and Albom begins regular visits initially to offer support but in reality to learn important lessons about life.

The book does have a cheesy element to it, but it is nevertheless very moving in parts and a pleasant read. For some it will be very inspirational and may lead to some serious life changes or at least a review of current habits and plans. The book is beautifully and sensitively written, Albom has a great sense of purpose and it’s well worth a exploring. It’s a short book so don’t take it on holiday as you may finish it before you get anywhere! If you like Albom’s style you may also enjoy The Five People You Meet in Heaven or The Time Keeper.

Children’s Choice Loud Daniel O‛Dowd from the Ever So… Series

This series of books are short life lessons for children on personality traits. There are five books in the series, but this is our favourite.

Daniel O’Dowd is so incredibly loud all the time and it gets him into trouble, especially at school.

However, one day his gift is required to help save the world… but he has to remember to be quiet too – so he can get back home safely. The story is fun and silly, but a very welcome opportunity to discuss when it’s ok to be loud, and when we need to listen! Fun illustrations mean this will be universally popular. www.mrsaverageevaluates.wordpress.com

The Royal Voluntary Service Sheds Grant Fund The Royal Voluntary Service have launched a Sheds Grant Fund – aimed at recently new and just forming Sheds to support local communities to create their own community spaces to craft, grow and build. Sheds are community workshop spaces where people can come together to take part in practical skills and activities. They are designed and run by their members and provide opportunities for people to share tools, resources and skills in order to create, learn and develop social networks.

Grants of between £250 and £1,000 are available from the Sheds Grant Fund– with applicants encouraged to apply for some of the tools and equipment they need for their activities or ongoing costs such as help with their rent or insurance.

All applications need to come from constituted community groups and must be submitted by the deadline of Sunday 3rd July to be considered.

For further details see our ad on opposite page.

The Shed movement follows a blueprint from an Australian project and since the first Men’s Shed opened in the UK 6 years ago, there are now over 300 in the UK with three new Sheds on average opening a week.

Sheds are often places for older men to come together and work on either individual or community projects – but are now increasingly seeing younger men and women getting involved and benefitting from the social interaction and skill sharing that are at their heart.

The Fund is being supported by each of the National Sheds Associations across the regions.

DROP IN LEGAL SURGERY FOR DOMESTIC ABUSE FREE DROP IN LEGAL SURGERIES will be on offer for women who live in North Broxtowe and Stapleford, to access free legal information and advice in cases of domestic violence and abuse.

Thanks to a partnership between Broxtowe Women’s Project and Nelsons Solicitors, family law specialist’s sessions will take place every other Wednesday starting on 4th May from 9.30am – 2.30pm.

The sessions will offer: A private, safe space to talk through their concerns A chance to find out more about the legal options available to them An opportunity to obtain free legal advice in an emergency situation, in the time of a crisis Free impartial legal advice on a range of civil matters Many of the women who Broxtowe Women’s Project supports have a number of complex issues. This might mean they find it easier to remain in an abusive relationship. The sessions aim to make legal advice and support more accessible and to encourage them to move forward in their lives.

The project is funded by the Police and Crime Commissioner for Priority Plus areas.

For more information please contact Broxtowe Women’s Project on 01773 718 555 or visit www.broxtowewomensproject.org.uk Any women experiencing domestic abuse can call the Helpline Monday – Friday between 10.00am and 1.00pm on 01773 719111 or the 24 hour National Helpline on 0808 2000 247.
