We dry-clean and maintain your drive throughout the year The Moss man has been operating in the Skegness and Louth areas for 3 years now and has built up a large customer base. We are based in Sloothby near Skegness, Lincolnshire. Through being in the building trade for many years we realised that keeping block paving weed and moss free is a real problem. For years pressure washing has been the only real option, although a wire brush with a long handle is also useful if you have the time.

Skegness said.... Margaret Russell ofd today on time and very friendly they lle m to The Moss Man ca recommend the we would highly did a fantastic job anyone. the retreatment. will see you for Thanks again we ness said....

First Class Servi

We are now also treating roofs without standing on them or upsetting the neighbours (after the thick moss is removed).

If your roof is green and you want it clean call The Moss Man for an eco-friendly gleam !! We are fully qualified and insured for your peace of mind.

Mr Adam Wright, (pictured right) covers Boston, Spilsby, Friskney, Woodhall Spa and all surrounding villages. Call him on 01754 761606 for a free quote today. Neither of these options kill the weeds or moss, however. They simply remove the green, but in the case of the weeds it leaves the roots intact and with the moss, spores are left behind and fed with there favourite food - water! Pressure washing can remove the sand which the blocks are laid on, making your block drop and causing untold damage to your driveway which, in turn, could lead to having it relaid.

Before...

We kill the weeds and treat the moss and algae, making sure the weeds have been killed at the root before brushing all the debris from between the block work. After all debris is removed we treat the surface to remove any algae left in the blocks. This will keep the surface of your blocks clean. We then retreat the block paving every 3 months to help control the regrowth. As I’m sure you are aware, unless the blocks are maintained the weeds and moss will keep returning. We clean your drive from only £99.00, then going forward maintain it from only £29.99 every three months. It’s cheaper than getting your windows cleaned.

Top winter cruise destinations

W

inter is upon us. Morning and evening commutes with the faint sight of the sun as little more than a distant memory and icy patches are on the horizon. Whether you want to get away from the cold, take advantage of low offseason pricing or visit the Southern Hemisphere during their summer, there are a number of destinations that shine during the winter months. Here are our picks for the six best winter cruise destinations.

Caribbean & Bahamas

Why: In a word: warmth. If you need a second: sunlight. Months of grey, cold days get tiresome but the Caribbean and Bahamas offer the perfect antidote. Forget all about snow and sleet as you snorkel past bright fish or steer your 4x4 over sand dunes in the bright sun. Multiple itineraries of varying lengths are available, so you can take as few or as many days as you want.

December through February are also mating season for turtles, tortoises and sea lions, so lots of opportunities for wildlife spotting. You’ve got a few options when it comes to Galapagos cruises, from tiny 16-passenger boats to the 98-passenger Celebrity Xpedition cruise ship.

Europe

Why: For lower prices and smaller crowds, Europe can’t be beaten - it also means a convenient no-fly cruise option or, at most, a short flight to your destination. Winter cruising in Europe is mainly confined to the Mediterranean, where you’ll be able to visit Rome, Venice, Barcelona and other iconic Med cities. Another winter option in Europe are the coastal Norwegian cruises offered by Hurtigruten, which guarantees sightings of the Northern Lights on any classic round trip 12-night sailing between October 1 and March 31(If you don’t see the Lights, you’ll get a free cruise).

Galapagos

Why: The Galapagos cruise season runs year-round, but if you’re looking to escape the cold weather at home, why not tick off this bucket list destination at the same time? Other reasons the Galapagos is a great winter cruise destination (it’s actually summer in the Galapagos) are the calmer seas and excellent underwater visibility you find during these months, which make for great snorkelling.

Australia & New Zealand

Why: It’s summer Down Under, and while certain parts of Australia might be too hot for an extended visit (namely the country’s centre and north), its high tourist season in both countries, with cities on New Zealand’s South Island and along Australia’s eastern and southern edges featuring some of the best weather of the year. Whether you’re checking out the stunning natural beauty of New Zealand or taking in the culture of Australia’s major cities like Sydney or Melbourne, there’s no shortage of sights to see and activities to participate in during a shore excursion in either country.

Middle East

Why: Some cruise destinations are just too hot to visit in the summer. The Middle East is one such region, with average temperatures in Dubai in July hovering near 105 degrees. And while the height of the Middle East cruise season is in late autumn (mostly November), cruisers can still find plenty of sailings from December through March

(and even into April) visiting ports in Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Most cruises to the Middle East are one week in length and operated by European lines like MSC Cruises and Costa Cruises, although you can usually also find sailings from Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity and Crystal’s yacht division. The Nile River cruising season is also at its peak in the winter.

Southeast Asia

Why: Like the Middle East, Southeast Asia (comprising countries such as Indonesia, Singapore, Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam) is hot, humid and downright uncomfortable to visit in the summer. Cruise lines know this and time many of their sailings in the region for the late autumn and winter months. Both ocean and river cruises spend time during the winter in Southeast Asia with ocean lines like Royal Caribbean and Princess visiting Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore, among others and river cruises plying the Mekong in Vietnam and the Irrawaddy in Myanmar (Burma).

Gardening

Late Autumn gardening tasks The leaves are falling, as well as the temperatures, and the rain has started to come more often. Yes, winter is definitely on its way. But, that doesn’t mean there are no jobs to be done in your garden in November – definitely not! You will have done a lot to prepare your garden for the winter back in October, but there are still tasks to tick off your to-do list this month. And, we’re here to help with expert gardening tips and advice to get you through this period. Autumn is often treated as a time to hack everything back for a big tidy up before winter really sets in. However it’s actually not a good time to prune many trees and shrubs – you are better to do this late in winter, or in early spring. Cherries, if pruned, are very vulnerable to silver leaf disease. And evergreens are usually tackled in early spring, or after flowering. Saying this, there are some plants that should be pruned in the autumn – these include beech, hawthorn and hazel trees. As well as climbing and shrub roses. Vigorous growers like buddleja, dogwoods and lavatera can be reduced by half to lessen problems of wind rock over the winter. The most important part of autumn pruning is removing dead, diseased, or misplaced branches. Always aim to make a clean cut, either back to a bud on living wood, or back to the stem it’s growing from. After pruning, scatter a few handfuls of bonemeal around the root area of shrubs to stimulate root growth over winter, and mulch with garden compost. If you have grapevines in your garden, then you will also need to prune these in November. Cut back all fruited shoots to one or two buds from the main stem. This can be carried out between November and late winter. If your grapevines under glass are then it’s best to prune them sooner, rather than later, so that winter sunlight coming into

the greenhouse is not blocked out. As long as the ground is not frozen or waterlogged, keep planting out pot-grown hardy climbers, shrubs and trees – and, you must remember to water them through the winter. It’s also a good time to plant bare root specimens which are usually cheaper to buy. Sow some broad beans! These beans, which are also known as ‘fava’ beans are a cool weather crop and can be sown in autumn/early spring to give a succession of pods to pick from early, to mid, summer – delicious! They like a deep, rich, moist but free draining soil and plenty of sunlight. Some varieties can grow to around 90cm high, so make sure you prepare for this when choosing a spot to plant them. If your garden gets a lot of wind, then you may be better to grow a dwarf variety – such as ‘The Sutton’. Once they’re planted you can look forward to harvesting them come summer – make sure you pick them before the beans grow huge (beans should be about the size of a thumbnail when popped from their pod). Keep on top of leaves that are falling on the lawn, beds and in your pond. Rake them up regularly to keep on top of this task. It’s your last chance to plant some tulip bulbs! By planting them this late in the year you’ll have a much better chance of preventing the bulbs being infected with the fungal disease, tulip fire. Just don’t leave it too late – if you can get them planted right at the start of the month. They’ll be best to plant in a lightly shaded spot that gets more sun as spring progresses. If you gave your lawnmower some care last month before thinking about packing it away, then you must remember to drain out any petrol. Unleaded petrol does not keep, and may cause you issues come spring when you try to start it up again. This also applies for hedge-trimmers and any other machinery requiring petrol.

The new Focus has all the bases covered

T

he Ford Focus has become such a staple of the British car landscape that you’d be hard-pressed to find someone who has never owned, test-driven or got a lift in one of these enormously popular hatchbacks. In the UK we love it so much, in fact, that we’ve parked more than two million on our driveways since it was launched in 1998. Tastes have changed significantly since then, of course. Not only have SUVs arrived on the scene, but even small family cars have become relatively plush. Just take a look at the latest Mercedes A-Class - once an ungainly mini-MPV, this entry-level offering now comes with slick styling and a high-tech cabin that wouldn’t look out of place on the set of a sci-fi blockbuster. The last thing Ford can afford to do with the new Focus, then, is rest on its laurels. Thankfully, first impressions are

22

good. The new car’s swoopy bodywork looks much sportier than the car it replaces and each version - from the offroad-y Active to the posh Vignale – gets unique bumpers to help it stand out. The version we spent most time in was the ST-Line X - a sporty mid-range model that mimics the look of a full-blown high-performance ST version, but without the hefty price tag or teeth-rattling ride. That doesn’t mean Ford’s scrimped on equipment, however - inside you get leather seats with flashy red stitching, lots of soft materials and a touchscreen infotainment system with sat nav and smartphone mirroring features. There’s enough space in the boot for a baby buggy or a few suitcases, but the VW Golf and Vauxhall Astra are roomier still Thankfully, all the extra creature comforts don’t encroach into passenger space. The new Focus is roomier than ever and even tall adults have space to stretch out in the back.

Unfortunately, the same can’t be said of its boot. Sure, there’s enough space for a baby buggy or a few suitcases, but the VW Golf and Vauxhall Astra are roomier still. The Focus creeps ahead of these rivals as soon as you hit the road - especially in sporty ST-Line guise. It grips keenly and barely leans in tight corners so you have plenty of confidence when hurtling down a twisty country road. This is partly thanks to our ST-Line car’s fancy independent rear suspension - something you don’t get on entry-level cars. Still, even with the standard set-up the Focus sneaks a grin onto your face much more readily than the Golf and Astra. Go for a 180bhp ST-Line model and it feels much perkier than the figures suggest. Accelerating from 0-62mph in just under nine seconds might not set your world alight, but the buzzy three-cylinder growl this 1.5-litre petrol engine produces makes it feel a whole lot faster. When you’ve finished having fun, Ford claims this engine returns 51mpg – not bad for a reasonably sporty hatchback - and it cruises along relatively quietly, too. The manual gearbox is a little notchy but the automatic is smooth and finds the right gears at the right time, which helps take the sting out of seemingly endless inner-city jams.

Also helping to make rush hour a little less stressful is the Focus’ raft of driver-assistance systems. You can get it with adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist and even a feature that’ll stamp on the brakes and steer for you to try and avoid obstacles in the road ahead. The Focus, then, has almost everything you could want from an affordable hatchback and makes a worthy successor to the outgoing family favourite.

Music

Elvis Costello & The Imposters Look Now October 12 - Concord (all formats) It’s been five years since the prolific songwriter’s last long-player ‘Wise Up Ghost’ and he returns with ‘Look Now’, his first album with The Imposters since 2008’s ‘Momofuku’. Elvis says of his the new record, “I knew if we could make an album with the scope of ‘Imperial Bedroom’ and some of the beauty and emotion of ‘Painted From Memory’, we would really have something,” he said. Burt Bacharach returned to co-write some of the new material, also playing piano on “Don’t Look Now” and

‘Photographs Can Lie’, while Carole King collaborated on ‘Burnt Sugar Is So Bitter’, a song he first performed in 1999.

Neneh Cherry Broken Politics October 19 - Awal Neneh Cherry’s fifth solo album‘Broken Politics’ is preceded by the hushed, tense ‘Shot Gun Shack’, which alludes to cycles of fear and violence. “Pick up the gun, you know you gonna use it,” she sings over a trip-hop-styled beat. “You know that gun is gonna get loaded/ Say my name before you pull it.” Cherry said the song title was inspired by a

conversation she had at the funeral of late jazz icon Ornette Coleman. “I don’t even remember who said it, but I was like, ‘Shotgun shack! That’s a cool term,’” she said, detailing the single’s lyrical themes. “It’s about gun culture – the notion of war zones and the tragedies that guns bring there. The gun is a powerful thing – dangerous, but powerful.”

Boy George and Culture Club Life October 26 - BMG (all formats) This new set, Culture Club’s first studio album since 1999, was originally titled ‘Tribes’ and expected to be released in

2016-17. The group even previewed new songs - such as ‘Different Man’, ‘Human Zoo’ and the Johnny Cash

homage ‘Runaway Train’ - during live shows. But Culture Club ultimately decided to wipe the slate clean and “record everything again,” George says, “just to give the album a kind of continuity, a kind of feel. “I just feel that we’ve made the album that we’ve been trying to make maybe since (1983’s quadruple-platinum) ‘Colour By Numbers’. George adds. “It’s funny when you say it sounds very Culture Club; We do often say that about tracks. But it just feels looser. It’s very catchy”.

Fitness Matters Best exercises for a flat stomach H

ands up if you want a toned stomach? Well, with a little hard work you can get the stomach of your dreams by doing these exercises.

1 The plank

To complete this exercise lie flat on your stomach and place your forearms on the floor. Then, press down with your forearms and push your self up – using your toes as support - until your head, neck, back and legs are all in a straight line. This is an excellent flat stomach exercise because it strengthens your inner core muscles, upper and lower abdominal muscles and burns more calories in comparison to other abs exercises, such as sit ups. This is because to do the plank you have to engage the muscles in your legs, arms and back too.

2 Boat pose

If you want to try a challenging flat stomach exercise you should introduce the boat pose to your workout. Doing this yoga pose regularly will quickly help you reach your goal of a flat stomach. To begin, sit on the floor with bent knees. Lean back slightly and then bring your legs up and straighten them until your body forms a V shape. Your arms should be stretched out and parallel to one another. Keep your palms facing inwards. Remember to engage your abs muscles whilst doing this exercise and keep your stomach relaxed and flat. This is a fantastic abs exercise because it targets and strengthens your core muscles and improves balance.

3 Bicycle crunch

This exercise is a must if you want a flat stomach. To begin the Bicycle crunch, lie on your back. Place your palms beneath your head and lift your legs until they are positioned at a 90-degree angle. Keeping your right hand on your head, twist your body, bringing your right elbow towards

your left knee. Alternate your limbs, bringing your left elbow toward your right knee. To get maximum results this exercise should be executed slowly. The bicycle crunch is a great exercise to include in your flat stomach workout as research has shown that the exercise works all of the major abdominal muscles.

4 Skipping

As well as doing abs exercises, if you want a flat stomach you should try to incorporate some cardiovascular exercises into your workout. Although running, cycling and swimming are all excellent forms of cardiovascular training, skipping is useful in this instance because it can be performed indoors with your other abs exercises. Skipping for fitness requires the correct technique: you only need to lift your feet a few centimetres off the ground each time the rope passes and ensure your heels don’t touch the floor. Also, make sure you turn the rope with your wrists, rather than using your whole arms. Skipping works your transverse abdominis, rectus abdominis and your inner and outer obliques. It is essential to include cardiovascular training in your flat stomach workout, as it will help you burn calories and lose weight alongside helping you to tone your abs.

5 Medicine ball slam

For this exercise, you will need a non-bouncing medicine ball. Using both hands, lift your medicine ball above your head and place your feet shoulder-width apart. Your knees should be slightly bent. Now, explosively bring the ball down, bending at the waist and throw it at the floor. Try to get into a rhythm so that you can catch the ball once it has hit the floor. During this exercise you should not lose your balance or posture. If you do, it might be because the medicine ball you are using is too heavy. The medicine ball slam is a total body exercise that strengthens your core stability and will help you to tone up your stomach.

Health Matters

Top five foods for a flat belly

H

aving a well-balanced diet is a vital part in getting rid of any fat around your stomach, and introducing new food groups into your everyday life is simpler than you think. Here are five key foods that you should include in your flat belly diet.

1 Whole grains

Introducing more whole grains into your diet is an effective way of dropping those unwanted pounds. Whole grains are a fantastic lowfat source of slow-release energy, keeping you going throughout the day. And, thanks to their high levels of fibre, your digestive system will become healthier and more regulated. Whole grains also have the added benefit of stopping fat from being stored around the stomach, by lowering the insulin and cortisol (the stress hormone) within your body. To stick to a flat stomach diet, opt for grains that are still in their natural form, such as oats, spelt, brown rice and buckwheat.

2 Water or other still drinks

One of the major elements that could be hampering your efforts in achieving that flat belly could be a lack of water in your diet. When you don’t have enough fluids in your body, it can make you feel bloated and often worsen the problem. Drinking plenty of water can help leave your stomach looking flatter by curbing your hunger, flushing any toxins through your body, improving your digestive system and getting rid of any fluid retention.

which give the fruit their brightlycoloured appearance can also burn stomach fat and help you get the abdominal area you’re after.

4 Flax seeds

Full of monounsaturated fats (MUFAs), flax seeds are the perfect seed to introduce into your flat stomach diet. The MUFAs found in flax seeds will help to bring down your body fat and lower your cholesterol levels – something that the saturated fats found in junk foods do not do. They are easy to bring into your daily routine – a tablespoon of ground flax seeds will go perfectly with your lunchtime salad, mixed into a flat stomach smoothie or sprinkled over your morning cereal.

5 Yoghurt

Low in both fat and calories, yoghurt could be the ideal food to add to your flat stomach diet. It can help improve your digestive health, and combat against any potential bloating and excessive gas through the probiotics it contains – these active cultures stimulate the growth of good bacteria in your stomach. A recent study revealed that participants who ate 18 ounces of yoghurt per day (as well as reducing their overall calorie intake) lost, on average, 81 per cent more belly fat compared to those who opted to diet without eating yoghurt.

3 Berries

Berries could be your secret weapon in achieving your flat belly goals. Research has found that going for red or blue coloured fruit (think cherries, blueberries, blackberries and red grapes) can help you lose that unwanted belly fat. The chemicals

Pets & Aquatics

Keep your pet safe this Autumn The arrival of autumn brings a new set of challenges to pet owners, especially when the clocks go back, so here are some tips for keeping you and your pet safe and well as the nights draw in.

adjust their food intake accordingly to avoid them gaining too much weight, also make sure fresh water is always available.

Dogs

l Look out for frostbite. It is most common on the ears, the tail and footpads and looks pale, glossy or white. Take them to the vet if you feel this is developing.

l Even with the darker mornings and nights and the worsening weather, your dog still needs regular exercise. Your dog is unlikely to get the same level of exercise and access to the outdoors that he had during the summer, but it can lead to behavioural problems if your dog does not have enough activity and mental stimulation. l If your dog is getting less exercise during the week, his fitness levels will not be as high as in the summer, so don’t overdo his exercise at the weekends as he could experience health problems. l If you are walking your dog early in the morning or after work, invest in a reflective vest or jacket for yourself and even a reflective collar and lead for your dog. If you take your dog to a safe area where he can run free, you can purchase small flashing lights that are attached to the dog’s collar so you can see where he is and when he stops for a poo! The blinkers come in different colours which is useful if you have more than one dog. l If the weather prevents you walking your dog, you can play scent games in the house or garden by hiding treats or toys and letting him search for them. Make it very easy and obvious to start with and gradually build up the level of difficulty. If you feed dry food you can even scatter his meal over the lawn and let him forage for it. l Remember that if your dog is getting less overall exercise, make sure you adjust his food intake accordingly so he doesn’t gain weight. The same applies if you are doing more training with treats as a reward.

Cats

l Some cats get a lot less exercise in these colder months as they don’t go outside so much. Make sure you

44

l If your cat does continue to go outdoors during the colder months, make sure they don’t stay out for too long especially when temperature is below freezing.

l Prevent potential burns by protecting your cat from open fires and heaters. l Sound your horn or bang the bonnet before starting your car as cats do have a tendency to curl up on the tyre or near the engine. l Cats are the most inclined to eat anti-freeze so keep it locked away. l Make a cosy place for your cat to sleep with some warm bedding, free from draughts. You could even raise the bed off the floor as they love that.

Rabbits and guinea pigs

l If your rabbits or guinea pigs are kept outside, now is the time to start planning their location for the colder months ahead. If you have a garage or shed you can move them into there for the winter. If you don’t, their hutch will need to be protected from the weather to keep them warm, spare blankets or off cuts of carpet can be used as insulation. l Hang something from the front of the hutch to protect them from the elements. l Do not use hot water bottles or electric blankets as they can burn your small furry pet. Instead add extra bedding to keep them warm and more cosy. l Rabbits and guinea pigs can have a little extra hay in addition to their usual feed to increase their calorie intake, they don’t hibernate like other animals so they need the little extra. l To stop their water bottles freezing you can try wrapping them in bubble wrap.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21 - April 19)

You may find yourself questioning things and going over and over the same ground. There could be some confusion over what course of action to take. It is probably best to take time out to consider it rationally rather than making a rash decision. A work colleague may say some odd things which you will dwell on. The chances are that it is their problem not yours, so don’t try to shoulder the burdens of others.

TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)

Your friends and family will need you in the coming weeks. The likelihood is that you will need them too. This Horoscope period is set to be a relaxing one where time is spent with friends and family. It’s a time to enjoy yourself and relax. Take time out and don’t feel guilty about it. It is a time to de-stress – you will notice the difference in your mood and, more importantly, your family will too.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)

If you have been puzzling over what you really want out of life and pondering on events out of your control, your mind should feel less anxious and you will gain some of the clarity which you have been searching for. Certainly, you will feel more optimistic about your position in life and proud of your achievements. This is likely to be a time for quiet reflection with a positive outcome.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)

Try to be as determined and as focused as you can during this period. There may be deadlines which need to be met as well as promises which have to be kept. Your criteria for success could be based on a balanced approach, so allow yourself sufficient time to accomplish any tasks that may lie ahead. An organised and businesslike approach is vital if you are to achieve your goals.

LEO (July 23- August 22)

Be prepared to dress up and get your party clothes out for a whirl of social engagements including date nights, parties, events and functions. Your feet won’t touch the ground and you will be happy in the company of others. You will be in high spirits and nothing is likely to dampen your morale. Expect a real fun time when you have little to worry about other than simply enjoying yourself!

VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)

This is the perfect time to start a detox programme and get yourself back into shape, your Virgo portents suggest. If you have neglected visits to the gym or engaging in physical activity, then this is the perfect time for getting yourself back on track. I would strongly suggest that you maintain a regular exercise routine so that you remain tuned to your physicality as well as your mentality.

LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)

This could be a tricky period where you will struggle with work colleagues and with changes in your work circumstances. You might well seek advice from your seniors and you would be advised to listen very carefully to what they have to say. If you ignore this advice you are likely to feel even more bewildered. Their advice could suggest being more flexible and not to let your stubborn streak win the day.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)

What a lovely time for romance! Scorpions could find themselves falling easily and effortlessly in love. For those less impressionable, there could be an opportunity to rekindle things with an old flame who turns up out of the blue. This period could allow an opportunity for a trip down memory lane. It will certainly be a period full of pleasant dalliances and even more pleasant surprises!

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)

You could feel the need to slow down, since the pace of your life and career has become very fast of late. You may recognise the signs that it’s time to take a break and chill out. The best solution would be to take some time away from it all, so now’s the time to take a short break so that your personal and professional relationships can heal themselves.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)

You will be in a positive frame of mind this month and your focus is likely to be on the persona you project to other people. If you dissect your past mistakes you could easily make amends for any indiscretions. It is well within your capabilities to improve your sense of well-being and correct past errors, helping to ensure that personally damaging mistakes of this kind never occur again.

AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)

This is a period where your family is likely to need your attention more than ever. A younger member of the family could need some help and support. You could find that you lose your temper more easily over trivial things. Try to remain calm and rational at all times and don’t allow yourself to succumb to the pressures of work for once. It must come second to family affairs.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)

Your finances are likely to be in spectacular order and, as a result of this, personal relationships will benefit and your own inner peace and harmony will be restored. You will feel extremely positive and optimistic for the future. People will be drawn to you for your good humour and sensible advice. At any social event, the chances are that you will end up as the life and soul of the party.

Don’t ignore medical mistakes - Get the justice you deserve By Chloe Sullivan 1. What is Medical Negligence?

Before...

I often get asked the question ‘What is Medical Negligence or what is it that you do’? Put simply, I help injured patients receive compensation when they have received a substandard level of care by their treating health professional. That health professional could be a Doctor, Consultant, Surgeon, Nurse or even a Dentist. The idea behind being able to pursue a claim when you have been the victim of medical negligence is to put you, as the injured patient, back in to the position you otherwise would have been had that negligence not occurred. Compensation and rehabilitation helps to put measures in place for those living with permanent injuries and provides security for the future. Common cases of negligence include failure to diagnose, delays in treatment, failure to treat, birth injuries, surgical injuries and prescription errors.

2. How to Make a Claim

After Natural hair pigments are applied (tattooed) to replicate the natural appearance of real hair follicles. A variety of styles offered for males & females depending on your hair loss extent ranging from hair density, fuller head of hair, head scar covering or creating the look of a shaved head.

Contact Karlie for a free consultation on

07534 611066

(Beneath The Skin) 10 High Street Skegness PE253NW

If you think you have a medical negligence claim, firstly you must talk to one of our specialist Solicitors who will advise you on whether the claim has merit or not. Our Solicitors offer free consultations and you are under no obligation to continue with the claim if you do not feel it is right for you. It is important however that you contact our Solicitors as early as possible as there are strict time limits when bringing a claim for medical negligence. We often begin the process by helping you draft a letter of complaint. Once you have received a response, your medical records will be gathered and reviewed by a team of medical experts who will then advise us on the extent of the negligent treatment and what injuries this has caused you. Your Solicitor will then put forward your case and liaise with your opponent whilst aiming to negotiate a settlement between the parties.

3. Is making a claim justifiable?

It is not uncommon for people to feel a sense of guilt when bringing a claim against an institution like the NHS which is considered a ‘national treasure’ vital to our country. However, when negligence arises and people are injured as a result, this highlights failures which need to be improved upon to ensure that future mistakes are not made to others. If claims are not pursued, then ongoing mistakes will not be challenged and rectified which could be detrimental to not only the survival of the healthcare sector itself but also those receiving healthcare in the future.

Contact us

Hodgkinsons’ specialist Medical Negligence Solicitors will guide you through your options to ensure you receive only the best possible outcome. If you or a loved one have suffered a substandard level of care provided by a health professional, contact Hodgkinsons’ team of Solicitors on 01754 897150 for a free case assessment.
