Hello!

Welcome to November’s edition of Darlington Monthly.

We’re rapidly approaching Christmas now, and it shows in this edition because we’re advertising so many festive events! To get you in the mood for Christmas, we’ve put together some of the best events in the area for you to see on page 42. Who’s ready to go to a Christmas market?

Of course, we have our usual film review and local news. Head on to page 40 to check out what we had to say about The Woman King and, of course, enter our monthly competition for some free cinema tickets.

Our local news this month almost seems inspired by The Woman King, as we’re celebrating a woman in STEM, who wants to see women everywhere follow their dreams and work in the engineering trade.

Enjoy November! We’ll be back next month in full Christmas force, to see you into a brand new year!

Female engineer calls on others to follow their dreams

After completing her Level 3 BTEC in Mechanical Engineering, Rachel secured a junior engineering apprenticeship with MPI Offshore where she worked for four years, alongside studying for a degree in engineering.

A Teesside woman has engineered her dream career in STEM and is calling on more young people in the region to follow in her footsteps.

She now works as an assistant fleet engineer for Network Rail, a diverse role that sees her travel across the country carrying out essential maintenance works and repairs on tracks. Rachel added: “I can honestly say I love my job and if I hadn’t gone to Middlesbrough College, I might not be able to say the same thing.”

Rachel Boynton had always been interested in engineering, but it wasn’t until she enrolled at Middlesbrough College that she believed she could turn her passion into a profession.

Rachel attended an open day at Middlesbrough College where she spoke with engineering tutors who reignited her passion for the subject.

She added: “I felt like they were taking my ambitions seriously and they made me feel like I could really make a career out of engineering.

“I loved every minute of my time at the College, and everyone was so suppor tive and encouraging. I want other young people to feel that too and to know that there’ll always be people who will believe in you and give you a chance, you just need to be willing to take a chance too.

“Women are still under-represented in the industry – I see it day to day in my job and while I’m out and about networking.

There needs to be more done to inspire school children and show them what opportunities are available.”

Ruth Sheridan, Rachel’s former tutor and also curriculum team leader for mechanical and mechatronic engineering at Middlesbrough College, said: “We’re all incredibly proud of Rachel and where she’s got to in such a short space of time.

It’s all down to her hard work and determination – she’s a great role model for other young people just starting out in their career.

Since its acquisition of TTE in 2019, Middlesbrough College Group is the largest engineering training provider for school leavers in the country.

The College’s experienced trainers support hundreds of learners in the oil and gas, petrochemical, manufacturing, mining, construction and utilities sectors.

TTE’s Offshore Wind Manufacturing Academy is also helping future and current wind turbine technicians get the skills needed to suppor t the burgeoning wind energy industry on Teesside.

Northallerton Glass - Working hard to stand out from the crowd!

Glass is being used more and more in every aspect of our lives. Anytime we look through a window or check ourselves in a mirror it’s there.

New innovative and decorative applications for glass are always being found. From kitchen splashbacks to bathroom enclosures. Furniture and staircases through to architectural walk on glass, the uses are endless and Northallerton Glass can supply them all.

This month we are focusing on Mirrors. Whether required for bathrooms and dressing rooms or interior design purposes, we have a range of mirrors for every application.

We keep a large stock of different mirrors able to be cut, polished, bevelled and drilled. Our tinted and antique effect finishes are highly effective when used in both traditional and contemporary designs and are especially popular as kitchen splashbacks.

Benefit from the feeling of light and illusion of space created by adding a full mirrored wall. Make a statement with a column of mirrors on a staircase landing or simply introduce a mixture of textures and finishes to an interior design project.

We offer a full survey and installation service throughout the region or can simply deliver it to you. Trade and public enquiries are welcome.

Why not add some decorative sandblasting to your mirror?

We specialise in surface etching and multi layer glass carving.

The creative options are endless. Speak to our design team today to find out more.

If you need your glass dropping off, no problem. We deliver to the Darlington area once a week.

Solar energy is the future!

Here’s why...

The uncertainty we’re all facing with our energy bills at the moment has led to a huge uptake in renewable energy solutions to save people money and future-proof their home. We believe solar is the future for consumers and here’s a just few reasons to consider this for your home...

Generate energy even on cloudy, overcast days Of course, solar panels are most effective when it’s a sunny, bright day.

However, even when just a few rays of sunlight are trickling through to your solar panels, they can continue to generate electricity.

Store excess energy in a solar battery Adding a battery to your system means you can store excess energy generated by your panels throughout the day and use it later on when your home is more active, which tends to be in the evening.

Make money by exporting excess solar energy With a battery system in place you can store surplus energy for personal use, or you can even make money from it. Under the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), you can earn money by selling excess energy generated back to the Grid. This is a fantastic example of how a solar panel and battery system can simultaneously save and make you money.

Solar from as little as

They say that the enthusiastic tutor is friendly and knowledgeable. The set timetable ensures that students get through the syllabus swiftly. It is very social, allowing you to meet other like-minded people and hear their stories. There are three navigation courses to choose from depending on your previous experience:

Alternatively, there is also an online version for people who prefer to study at home. The RYA Day Skipper Theory course takes 5 days and is ideal for anyone who owns a boat or is thinking of hiring one. It covers tidal calculations, pilotage, collision regulations, chartwork, passage planning, weather forecasting and electronic navigation. Students love this really popular course because it gives them the knowledge and confidence to visit harbours other than their home port.

The RYA Essential Navigation course takes two days and is for the absolute beginner. It’s perfect for anyone interested in taking up boating or sailing yachts. It introduces you to chartwork, tides, weather, buoyage and safety.

The RYA Coastal Skipper/Yachtmaster Theory course takes 6 days and is an advanced level course which requires the student to have knowledge at Day Skipper level.

This course suits the true boating enthusiast and anyone pursuing a career at sea.

The main instructor is called Glenys Thompson.

She is interested in all types of watersports and has dabbled in most of them. She is a commercially endorsed RYA Yachtmaster Skipper for both Power and Sail. She is also an RYA practical and shore-based instructor. She has been skippering large boats for over 20 years. When she is not teaching sailing she likes to go yacht cruising to new ports and foreign shores. She has sailed around the UK, across the North Sea, down to the Canary Islands and right down the Eastern Seaboard of USA and the all of the islands of the Caribbean.

FILM REVIEW

Please mention Darlington Monthly when contacting advertisers

THE

WOMEN KING

CINEMA DARLINGTON

John Boyega and Viola Davis star in this epic directed

by Gina Prince-Bythewood. Set in the 1800s, the film centres around the Agojie warrior women who were the protectors of Dahomey, a former West African kingdom.

Amenza (Sheila Atim) are two seasoned Agojie who are excellent additions to the cast. The film could have explored their back stories in more depth but there are many plot points to be covered within its runtime of just over 2 hours.

The opening scene quickly sets a violent precedent.

Although The Woman King is quite a gory film it thankfully never feels gratuitously so. It is simply a demonstration of the fierceness of the Agojie women as they contend with enemies including slavers and their complicit allies the Oyo Empire, who abduct Dahomey people to sell onto the trade.

The Woman King’s main weakness is arguably its use of some tired tropes including a particular plot twist and training montages. That being said, seeing these tropes used in the context of a historical drama that is focused on a part of Black history which may be lesser known to western audiences keeps things fresh.

Davis’ performance as the battle-hardened General Nanisca, the leader of the Agojie women, steals the show. Her storyline, with its arc about dealing with trauma, makes her character one of the most compelling. The dynamic between her and Boyega’s King Ghezo is believable as Nanisca is performed with a sense of dignity that warrants deep respect.

However, it is probably Nawi (Thuso Mbedu) that you root for most throughout the film. Nawi is a young upstart, who is taken to the Dahomey palace and offered to King Ghezo by her father for being too disobedient. She aspires to become a great Agojie warrior but she must face many obstacles along the way (including winning Nanisca’s respect).

Izogie (Lashana Lynch) and

The hardest parts of the film to sit through are the scenes depicting how the slave trade operated at the time. Although it’s uncomfortable viewing, it is important that such atrocities are not shied away from and are not merely seen as a plot point to add jeopardy.

Luckily film strikes the right balance when covering this difficult subject.

Ultimately, with its themes of overcoming trauma and its emphasis on female solidarity, The Woman King is an excellent, uplifting film and hopefully Hollywood tells more stories like this in future.

Long Live the woman king!
