Introduction

Welcome to Your June Issue.

June 16th, and Father’s Day will be upon us again, so just a little reminder for you all to show him just how much he means to you! Why not start by helping him win the competition in this month’s edition which has a “fatherly feel” to it … (if more clues were needed)?

The highlight of June of course is not just Father’s Day, but the fact that, on that day the fantastic Bourne Classic Car and Bike Carnival will be held, bigger, busier and brighter than ever before.

Please come and enjoy what looks like being a brilliant day out for everyone.

Finally, my love and Happy Father’s Day greetings go to my dad, Bill, and husband, Chris.

Claire x

Our June issue has its usual cornucopia of features to dip into and enjoy, as the summer arrives. I hope there’s something for everyone. As some of our offspring face their final school exams this year, we wish good luck to all of our GCSE and A Level students in the area. It will all be worth it in the long run – honestly! Just think of all that debt you’ll soon be able to rack up at university!

And finally, as June sees the Schwarz offspring’s first foray into the wonderful institution of marriage, (when our eldest son Rob and Jade tie the knot), let me share some lines from the inimitable John Cooper Clarke, spotted recently in Stamford - “It all starts off with hearts and diamonds, but before too long you’re thinking clubs and spades.”

(Surely not, unless of course he means clubs to join, as a loving couple, and spades to dig your garden with … together!)

Enjoy the read!

MARKET DEEPING: Deepings Community Centre, 2 Douglas Road, Market Deeping PE6 8PA on Tuesday 18th June, 11am-2pm or call 07724 473810

Quality Childcare in a Village Setting First Steps Nursery is situated in a quiet rural setting, surrounded by woodlands in the village of Maxey which is perfect for parents travelling from the surrounding areas of Market Deeping, Bourne, Stamford and Peterborough.

Established in 1989, we have a good reputation within the local community for providing private childcare for children from six weeks to five years of age.

Our homely feel sets us apart from other town and city nurseries and those which are part of a chain. Many of our experienced and fully qualified staff have been with us

for several years and enjoy their roles. Our manager, Janet, has been here for over thirteen years.

Our rural setting allows us to have the space for children to roam and use their imagination. Our extensive gardens are safe and secure, thus allowing our young explorers to spread their wings. Our children enjoy going to see the animals at the farm and make trips to the village hall and to our beautiful local church.

Of course, it’s not all just about our surroundings. We work with parents to establish an effective partnership between home and nursery. Each child is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. All our food is prepared on site. We have a 5* food hygiene rating and can cater for most specialist dietary requirements.

Funded places are available for two, three and four year olds, (subject to eligibility).

Why not come and see what we have to offer? We’d love to show you around.

S t e t s p r i s F Day Nursery

FUNDED CHILDCARE AVAILABLE for 2*, 3 and 4 year olds

Open Monday to Friday 7.30am to 6pm

Full & part time places available for 6 week to 4 year olds.

The Potting Shed Well let’s hope that we have those lovely warm, long sunny days that herald midsummer and that the plants benefit from the rise in temperature and the sunshine. While it is highly unlikely that there will be a frost, the bugs and beasties will be enjoying munching on your plants, so be vigilant and keep them down to manageable levels. As I have said before, garden pests can have a devastating effect on crops, and with the latest concerns over chemical pest control, an interesting alternative is using nematodes. Beneficial nematodes as pest control will attack soil-borne insect pests with no harmful effects on earthworms, plants, animals or humans, making it an environmentally friendly solution. You can use water-in nematodes against the following: • Slugs, ant nests (dependent on soil temperature).

• Leatherjackets, chafer grubs (in April and October, to coincide with vulnerable parts of their life cycles).

• Carrot fly, cabbage root fly, cutworms, onion fly, caterpillars, gooseberry sawfly, thrips and codling moth, (all can be attacked with a single product).

There are plenty of sites on the Internet where you can find further information on nematodes and where to purchase them.

June is the busiest month for the vegetable gardener.

Jobs to do this month are endless, so here are just a few that you can do: • Plant out vegetables that you have grown from seed but make sure you harden them off before planting out in their final position.

• All types of tree work undertaken • Tree falling • Lopping • Pruning Shaping • Hedges Trimmed • Conifers Topped • Also Fences Repaired • All Landscaping

• Thin out seedlings and plant others in their final growing positions.

• Earth up potatoes and, towards the end of the month, harvest earlies • Cut down broad beans and peas just above the surface, and use for compost, but leave the roots in the ground as a good source of nitrogen.

• Once you are sure that frosts are over, you can plant out the more tender crops such as aubergines, peppers, chillies, courgettes, marrows and squashes.

• Succession sow beetroot, salad crops, carrots and, later in the month, Florence fennel. Traditionally Florence fennel is sown after the longest day, 21st June, as it is less likely to bolt - sowing in succession is a good idea. If the weather is dry, then water your seed drills well before sowing – this way the young plants will develop a good root system.

• Last chance to sow runner beans.

• Brussels sprouts, leeks, sprouting broccoli and the last of the summer, autumn and red cabbages and the first of winter cabbages can also be planted.

• Protect carrots with insect-proof netting and net brassicas to deter pigeons.

In June 2017’s Potting Shed I mentioned “no dig” gardening and I haven’t had the nerve to try it - I wonder if any of our readers have tried it and what the outcome was? I would be interested to know, so please e-mail editor.bourne@ discoveringmagazines.co.uk.

Why Not Let Access4Lofts Become Your “Space Invaders”?

Space is critical in every home.

Think of the number of times you’ve thought, “It would be good to keep this, the problem is where?” Well, how about your loft? In the average home it accounts for between a quarter to one-third of the volume. That’s a huge area that could add so many uses and benefits to family life. Perhaps it’s difficult to get into? Not floored for storage or use? Access4Lofts solve all of these problems with simplicity.

We specialise in developing lofts for storage.

Safe access to your loft...The majority of properties have an access hatch to the space in the loft. Access4Lofts create space the easy and affordable way. We can supply and install

a new loft hatch and a safe, sturdy aluminium loft ladder in your home in just one day! That means that your dark and dismal roof space suddenly becomes a useful storage area for all of that family clutter. My experience enables fitting the ladder and converting the access hatch, in double-quick time; the space is accessible and there’s no mess left behind.

Floored and useful...Another option is to install a loft hatch and ladder and board out a decent sized area of your loft.

This gives you somewhere to store the suitcases or keep your winter/summer clothes. As soon as you have this additional space, you’ll wonder how you lived without it for so long.

CREATING SPACE THE EASY WAY!

Added property value exceeds the fitting cost...With the problems of moving house today, not to mention all the stress of the move, this is a simple solution which adds value to your property. With a safe ladder giving access to your loft, everybody can store their goodies away from the living area. And, if you are planning to sell your home, easy access to the loft space could give your home the advantage over other houses your buyer might be looking at.

If you’d like to find out how I can transform your loft into a useful storage area, then give me a call on 01733 663207 or take a look at www.access4lofts.co.uk/ peterborough.

OUR SPECIALIST SERVICES • Loft ladders & loft hatches • Boarding, lighting & insulation

YOUR PEACE OF MIND • Professional & friendly • No fuss or mess • Min. 5 year ladder guarantee

HUGE BENEFITS • De-clutter your home • Create up to a third more space • Gain safe & easy loft access

We help utilise the lost space in your loft space with quick and affordable loft access and storage solutions.

Advice

Consumer Advice

Citizens Advice Highlights a Problem With Scams Aiming at TV Licence Holders Citizens Advice runs a campaign every June to highlight the continuing problem with scams of all types. One which has been extensively reported recently features scam TV licensing e-mails. These e-mails will use headlines such as ‘Correct your licensing information’, ‘Billing information updates’ and ‘Renew now’. Some of them have targeted people who are over seventy-five years old, regardless of the fact that they are no longer required to pay for a TV licence!

E-mails like this play on people’s fears that they may not have ‘done the right thing’. Fraudsters hope that people might panic into responding by clicking on the link within the e-mail, taking them to a fake website. Here, they will be asked to provide some personal details and thereby make themselves vulnerable to having money taken from their bank account.

Citizens Advice suggest that people never click on links in e-mails they were not expecting, or provide personal details, including financial information, to anyone who contacts them unexpectedly.

Citizens Advice South Lincolnshire supports the national Scams Awareness campaign, June 10th 23rd 2019. If you would like to hear a presentation on Scams Awareness to a group you belong to, please contact randc2@citizensadvice.org.uk.

In the Deepings the service includes a drop-in fifteen minute assessment at the New Community Centre, Market Deeping on Wednesday mornings, before an afternoon appointment, if needed, or a referral to Deeping St James fortnightly on Thursdays, where the United Charities have funded an outreach at the Institute, on 38 Church Street.

Rooting Out the Rogue Traders from the Tried and Tested Professionals

by Eileen Le Voi - Safe Local Trades So, the milder weather is finally here, and your garden or home exterior could do with a spring clean of its own. If the effects of winter have taken their toll on your garden, property or driveway, you may be thinking about calling in the experts to inject a little life back into the space at the rear or front of the house, or the exterior itself.

But whatever the job – big or small – don’t be tempted to give the work to someone who cold calls you at your home, claiming to be ‘carrying out similar work in the area’; any offer which appears too good to be true often is.

Remember: • Don’t be talked into something on the spur of the moment.

• Don’t take their word for it when they tell you urgent work or repairs need doing.

• Do ask them to qualify who they are and to leave you a contact number.

• Never hand over any cash as a deposit for work which they say they will return to carry out.

• Feel free to ask to see their credentials and/ or examples of their work.

• Always ask them politely to leave if you feel uncomfortable with their approach.

Equally, be wary when it comes to leaflets dropping through your door; some may not be all that they seem. Here are a few simple rules which could give away tell-tale signs of a rogue trader.

• Do they have professional work wear?

• Do they have a sign-written vehicle?

• Are they a limited (Ltd) company?

• Do they have a UK address?

• Do they accept credit cards?

• Are they offering a reduced price for cash or having one time ‘special offers’?

• Are they trying to push you into making a quick decision?

So, if you are in the market for a new driveway or patio or are dreaming of a new lawn or garden for the summer – then always use a reputable tradesperson. No reputable tradesperson will come knocking on your door ‘touting’ for business. Needless to say, it is absolutely mandatory that you never pay anyone cash at the door, especially when they haven’t even conducted any work on your premises.

If you have internet access, carry out as much research on the company as you can.

If you would like to find a reputable and recommended tradesperson in your area, visit www.safelocaltrades.com and, together, we can root out the rogue traders. june 2019

S.K.D.C. Puts the “Market” into Market Deeping!

Around 2,000 shoppers enjoyed Market Deeping’s first weekly Saturday market in late April, hosted by South Kesteven District Council. The new event forms part of SKDC’s commitment to provide a thriving street market in all four of the district’s towns, (along with Grantham, Stamford and Bourne), to attract visitors and grow the local economy.

Traders enjoyed brisk business in glorious spring sunshine, while visitors shopped to a backdrop of entertainment for all the family, including music from the Stamford Stompers and an Easter Egg Hunt where every child won a prize – and eight lucky youngsters took home a full-size Easter egg. The street market is being held every Saturday in Market Deeping with food, gifts and produce on sale.

Head of Town Centres, Paul Allen, said: “Traders, shoppers and visitors all had a great time. Street markets are hugely important to the local economy, adding to the character of the area. This

new market will boost everyone’s shopping experience and add to the vibrant community.”

Market trader, Steve Brown, of Brown Bread, which sold out by 12.30pm, said: “It exceeded our expectations; people responded really well to the market.”

Cinnamon Coffee Shop Manager, Kerry Pammenter, said: “It’s just what the town needed. We had twice as many people in as a normal Saturday. We were really busy –it was brilliant.”

If you are a market trader and would like to have a stall on one of SKDC’s markets, including Market Deeping, contact Miki Gregory at m.gregory@ southkesteven.gov.uk.

Shopper, Emma Canham, from Market Deeping said: “It’s really lovely to come down and see so many people in Deeping because we’ve got lots of shops on our busy High Street. To see people actually out and using them is absolutely lovely.”

Traders sold fruit and vegetables, cooked meats, cheese, bread and eggs, while green-fingered customers could browse through plants, hanging baskets and garden materials. There was also a chance to sort through collectable LPs and fishing gear, or choose from a selection of jams and pickles.

Your Finances

The Perils and Pitfalls of Purchasing a Property - by Joseph Ash - Liberty Partnership Ltd

The starting point is always the same…

You have found the new house or investment property and it becomes ‘all you ever wanted’, ‘the house of your dreams’, ‘where we can start a family’, or ‘this will be a good investment’, and so you plan and plot and scheme about the future and the shape that life will take.

It feels good, you become excited and then you start to figure out your finances and decide to seek advice.

I have given mortgage advice to many clients. I arrange the mortgage and advise you over the terms and costs involved. I understand that my role from this point is in ‘delivering the dream’.

understanding of how your finances will work. My guidance often involves helping you understand the many mortgage offers available, clarifying the costs of stamp duty, or encouraging you to consider taxation implications that can fall heavily on buy-to-let landlords.

trying to make my point. My role is to act as your adviser, and I sometimes wish that I was slightly more on-board before the dreams of home owning and the thoughts of your future world become as entrenched as they do.

There is a great deal more to be considered than the choice of new wallpaper or carpets, and my role is to assist you in moving forward with a clear

Planning a Funeral – Two Experiences

by Nick Ash, Managing Director

I’d like to talk this month about planning a funeral and the experiences that a couple of my clients have gone through recently.

My first client, Michael, was quite distraught when I met him. His father had just died, and he had just been to a planning meeting with a funeral director – “It was a nightmare, Nick,” he said to me. “I sat down with a person I had never met before and she asked me a bunch of questions about Dad, and what he would have wanted. The conversation went something like this: – Funeral Director - ‘What sort of service did your father want?’

Me – ‘We never talked about it.’

FD – ‘ Let’s start with the easier questions – burial or cremation?’

Me – ‘I really don’t know, cremation I guess.’

FD – ‘Did he want flowers at the funeral or would you want to make donations to his chosen charity?’

Me – ‘I don’t know.’

FD – ‘What about music?’

Me – ‘I don’t know.’

“You get the picture?” Michael said.

“At the time when we had just lost Dad this woman was making me aware of all the things we hadn’t spoken about; it was big important stuff that we had simply avoided.”

Michael and the funeral director arrived at a plan, based on his best

guess of what his Dad wanted, but his feeling was that it wasn’t really satisfactory.

Michael’s experience was at complete odds with another client – Kate.

Kate was in a similar situation. She had just lost her father. But the key difference was that he had made a plan and paid for it in advance. I asked her if she had taken time to have the big conversation about the funeral with him before he died. “I didn’t need to,” she said, “the funeral director had the plan

and made everything happen just how Dad wanted.” Kate was really happy that the day had gone well and the plan had been exactly what her Dad had wanted.

Planning a funeral is unpalatable, but it is necessary. As with most things we do, it can be something that we never ‘quite get around to’. Will & Probate Services can help. We can offer a wide range of Funeral Plans, from all major providers including the Co-op.

If you want help, call us on 01778 382723.

Lifestyle

One Summer, One Family

by Lydia Pinfold

T

his time last year I had the amazing opportunity to capture the lives of a family of great crested grebes on a stretch of the River Welland outside Crowland. It all began in February 2018, when I spotted the pair performing one of their many signature mating dances; head shaking while fanning out their neck feathers to one another. Other dances that these birds perform include the weed dance and bill-dipping.

A few months later, the same pair were now building their nest. With me being situated on a high bank, I was able to keep my distance without disturbing the soon-tobe parents. Unfortunately, I missed the eggs hatching, but I was ‘made-up’ when I encountered all three chicks a few weeks later, showing their striking, black and white striped patterns. At this stage, the chicks were too large to ‘ride’ on their parents’ back like they did when they were newly hatched. Instead, the parents were teaching them how to dive and feed for themselves.

While I was watching the family through the camera

Pinfold Photographic 28

D I S C O V E R I N G

T H E

lens, I could see how hard the parents cared for their brood. Because the chicks were still learning to swim properly, they were kept in a small patch of weedy water where the current was slowed down, making sure that the chicks weren’t taken up river.

It was a delight to see that all three chicks survived throughout last year and have since become independent. I did, however, spot one of the chicks from the brood, battling choppy waters in the month of October, and it was still sporting the black and white patterns on its head. Who knows, this one might be one of the adult grebes I have sighted already this year!

A BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

by Claire Saunders, Renu - Health, Beauty & Fitness

J

une is one of my favourite months of the year. It hosts the longest day, an abundance of summer blooms in the garden, my personal birthday and it is also another birthday for Renu.

enjoying the benefits of an aromatherapy product at home or simply socialising with others in a friendly, nonintimidating environment, we offer you a space to find what you need and deserve.

It seems incredible that it is now thirteen years since I launched Renu in West Street, Bourne. I have seen many changes, including our move of premises to the former Marquis of Granby on Abbey Road, but our business model remains the same : a haven of wellbeing where you can relax the mind, tone the body and lift the spirits.

Of course, no business survives without a strong team and a loyal customer base. I have been fortunate to have both, and I would like to personally thank our customers, both old and new, for their continued support and encouragement.

When I started the business thirteen years ago, the biggest health concerns were things such as heart conditions and cancer. Whilst these are still very high on the agenda, depression, stress and anxiety are now equally high and becoming the foremost reason for absence from work.

Taking care of your health and wellbeing has never been more important. Whether it is a relaxing treatment, a dance class, gym session, a yoga or Pilates class,

With this in mind, we would like to invite you to our birthday celebrations on THURSDAY JUNE 20th when we will be serving strawberries and Prosecco, whilst offering taster treatments, talks and demonstrations, free spin classes, a prize draw and some very special offers on the day.

If you would like a tour of the building or simply enjoy a glass of fizz with us, please pop in anytime on the day. If you would like to book a taster treatment, please contact our reception on 01778 423923, or find full details of the event on our Facebook and Instagram pages.

Claire and the Renu Team would like to invite you for Prosecco and Strawberries to celebrate our 13th anniversary on Thursday June 20th , 9.30am – 8.30pm.

Free spin classes available all day, taster treatments, free prize draw, talks and demonstrations, very special offers (only available on the day).

Are Your Feet Ready for the Summer?

- Advice from the Professionals In preparation for the summer, Rachael Baker, Matthew Phillips and Amy Leverton - registered podiatrists / chiropodists at The Wellhead Practice, discuss common, everyday foot conditions and some helpful tips.

Q: What is one of the more everyday conditions you help with?

A: Simple nail cutting. Many patients really struggle to trim their own nails.

This can be due to reduced flexibility or perhaps due to osteoarthritis of the hands which makes it hard to hold nail clippers.

Even inadequate eyesight can pose a problem. At The Wellhead Practice, we offer a dedicated professional nail-cutting appointment (ÂŁ23), which is ideal if your feet are generally in good condition, and you only need a trim.

Q: What else do you commonly see?

A: Thick nails. Trauma to the nail bed perhaps from dropping something onto the toe or even poorly fitting shoes can cause these. Treatment involves reducing the thickness using a special drill and offering advice on things like footwear to help reduce recurrence. For example, as feet expand over the course of a day, avoiding shoe shopping in the morning may prevent you finding that your new shoes are too tight by the afternoon. Poor footwear can also cause problems like corns and calluses.

Fungal nails. These affect one or many nails with a discoloured and thickened appearance and are often crumbly in texture. Treatment is by applying a topical lacquer to the nail or via oral medication.

As the fungus has to grow out of the nail, treatment can take several months. Most people know that keeping your feet clean

For footcare follow the logo

is important, but drying them well, which includes between the toes, is a good preventative measure for fungal problems.

Involuted nails. Here the nail curves around the edges and presses into the sides of your toe. The temptation is often to cut down the sides but this can lead to in-growing nails. Letting the nails grow and clearing out the edge of the nail with an old tooth brush, using moisturising cream along the sides, may help. A buildup of dead skin, soap, sock fluff etc can put extra pressure on the nail, causing pain.

In-growing toe nails. Incorrect nail cutting, direct injury or picking at toe nails can lead to a spike of nail to grow into the flesh of the toe. Treatment ranges from cutting the nail correctly and removing the spike, to removal of the side or whole nail with surgery, under local anaesthetic, (which if needed can be performed here at the Practice).

Q: Anything else I should know?

A: Remember to check your feet regularly.

They take a lot of daily abuse and it is important, particularly for higher risk groups such as those with diabetes, poor circulation or lack of sensation.

Consult a professional. People habitually see a dentist for their teeth, an optician for their eyes, so visit a podiatrist for a diagnosis and advice for your feet. Many patients are embarrassed by their feet, but we have seen it all and treat everyone with professionalism and confidentiality.

All three of our podiatrists are experienced practitioners, members of the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists and registered with the Health and Care Professionals Council (HCPC).

Rachael Baker brings thirty-five years of NHS and private foot-care knowledge, with an expertise in diabetic foot care.

Matthew Phillips amd Amy Leverton treat a wide range of foot complaints, as well as having a special interest in bio-mechanical foot assessments for the prescription of shoe orthotics.

Your Health

Being On Your Own

by Nicole Woodcock, Hummingbird Hypnotherapy

I have often wondered about how people feel about being on their own. Taking time to just be with yourself and enjoy your own company. For a long time, I always imagined it to be quite uncomfortable, my own negative brain screaming at me shouting, “Look at that loner on her own,” and “obviously has no friends.” I have often sat and admired people that are just happy to sit and read a paper and have a coffee within their own company, and wondering if they have this annoying scenario pop up and shout at them too.

I remember quite vividly living on my own in Leicester and a friend of mine just mentioned that maybe I should take myself for coffee in my favourite shop to overcome the fear of being on my own. I took him up on it, grabbed my book and headed out. Scared! I found a quiet corner, ordered a mega mocha and sat and read. After five minutes the noise in my head began to quieten and I got lost in my book in a caffeine-fuelled daze.

with all the other late mums. We now aim to beat each other. Our fear stops us from making a proper assessment of the situation. It bombards us with lies and will continue to do so unless we take control and work with it.

These days it’s very different. In between work commitments and family, ‘alone time’ seems like such a privilege, if not a reward for juggling everything in the week and surviving.

I spend most mornings in anxiety mode, getting my children ready, aiming to be on time for school.

Inevitably, I’m always late and, instead of adding that to my bucket of negative crap, I embrace it. In actual fact, we now have a joke about it

Minimally Invasive Dentistry When most people think of dental treatment, they picture restorations (fillings), veneers (false facades on teeth), and crowns. However, a crown requires the removal of a substantial amount of tooth tissue in order to provide space for it to encapsulate the tooth. This is a shame if much of the tooth tissue is healthy, and further tissue loss will follow when the crown is replaced at a later stage. Is there an alternative?

Minimally Invasive Dentistry (MID) aims to maintain long-term oral health with a focus on prevention and the preservation of healthy dental tissues. There have been significant advances in recent years in the understanding of the disease processes that progressively occur in decaying (carious) teeth. The decay process begins with the loss of mineral content (demineralisation) from the dental hard tissues. However, the good news is that the effects on dental enamel can be reversed by a healing process of remineralisation. MID seeks to encourage this healing process, initially by facilitating the remineralisation of decayed enamel.

When deeper decay has occurred, then a biologically selective approach can be used to remove decay and restore the appearance and function of teeth, while preserving healthy tissue. This has been made possible

by recent advances in dental materials science, with high-quality adhesive, and even ‘healing’ (bio-mimetic) restorative materials now being available.

Catherine Cousley, a dentist at the Priestgate Dental Clinic in Peterborough, is an advocate of MID. She focuses on prevention, remineralization strategies, and performing the least destructive form of dental intervention.

Dentistry with a difference It’s almost a year since the Priestgate Dental Clinic opened, and we’re delighted by the fantastically positive responses we’ve received.

How I Rediscovered “The Old Me” with Slimming World I began my journey with Slimming World around two months after having my baby. I had gained 2 stone 6lbs during my pregnancy, on top of the expected healthy amount. My parents had been telling me that I needed to watch what I was eating, but I used my pregnancy as an excuse to indulge in whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted it! My midwife had also pointed out on a few occasions that I had gained a little more weight than expected, but I paid no attention; I just couldn’t see it myself and thought it was all baby.

old me”. My sister had started going to Slimming World with a friend and suggested that me and my partner go along, I had seen the difference in her and thought, “Why not give it a try?” We decided to join as a couple, as my partner had also gained a fair bit of weight during my pregnancy.

After the first week, we couldn’t quite believe just how successful we had been; we threw ourselves into it and the results were fantastic. We love to cook (and eat!!!) so this was something so easy to follow.

We bought a few of the cook books and were trying something new every night.

The food was delicious and plentiful. Even though our desire to lose weight was strong, our love for food hadn’t changed, so this plan fitted into our normal family life perfectly. With every pound lost, my confidence was regained.

Very quickly after having my daughter, however, it dawned on me that perhaps I should have listened to the advice I was being given. I lost all confidence and began to get a lot of anxiety about leaving the house. I had planned on going to all these different mother and baby groups, but I just couldn’t bring myself to it. My self-esteem was at an all-time low and I felt like I had lost “the

I’ve now lost a total of 2 stone 7lbs in ten months and it has totally changed my life.

Being a new mum is hard, battling the sleepless nights and the temptation to reach for the chocolate, but I can honestly say that I am now at my target weight. I have all this new-found energy that just wasn’t there before. I felt so tired and sluggish, but now I can really enjoy the daily activities and challenges that having a baby throws at you, without the worries or struggles I had before.

THOSE 3 MAGIC STEPS

by Matt Weston

The Art Deco façade, brought back to life as Empire Gym back in 2014, still uses the very same wooden doors as were used in 1928 on the opening of the old Empire Cinema. And the same three solid steps, leading up to those doors that were trodden then, used by local people in anticipation of the latest black and white movie, are still now used as people enter the technicolour of the new ‘Empire’, with excited anticipation and, occasionally, nervous trepidation as they begin a journey of personal discovery that in some cases would befit the ‘big screen.’

We advertise in ways we hope the public will notice. In ways that we hope will encourage people who are not yet part of the Empire membership to come and see what they are missing. We try to tell a story of family, quality and professionalism and we talk of proven examples of accomplishments against the odds, and determination in the face of adversity. Real people accomplishing real things against a backdrop of support and motivation.

It is, therefore, a joy and a gift when a member quite literally writes such a story about her own journey. And here it is.

Anne Boam is seventy-two and has been a member at Empire for two years. She has, but is not defined by, Parkinson’s Disease. She wrote: “I can’t thank the Empire Gym enough; it is a warm friendly gym.

People speak to each other and offer lots of encouragement, but most importantly all ages and abilities are treated equally. I started at the Empire two years ago, having had a diagnosis of Parkinson’s confirmed. It was suggested that I would benefit from keeping active and joining the gym.

Now the thought of joining really scared me as I had become extremely weak

Health I am addicted to remaining a member of the happy, friendly, Empire Gym. Thank you for all the help I have received. I am looking forward to the next two years.”

but, courage in both hands, I went up the three steps and opened the door to be met by Debbie on reception who welcomed me and introduced me to the lovely Dave. He showed me around the gym and it was agreed that I would return the following week for an induction lesson and he would devise a programme I was capable of doing.

Still very frightened, I returned the following week for what has proved to be the best thing I have done. My first programme was hard work.Being scared made me forget how to work some of the equipment, but either Dave or Matt were on hand to help, always ready to make me feel at ease.

I have had several programmes, all more demanding than the last, and any difficulties or questions I’ve had, or help I’ve needed, has always been provided by Matt and Dave who will add a bit of extra difficulty as soon

as I feel more capable, or I feel that I needed an extra push.

It has been hard work but worth the effort. I have muscles, and walk upright with better balance. Most of all, I have had my confidence and strength restored. The best reward was at the last visit to see the neurologist.He commented that no one would realise I had Parkinson’s Disease.

I would urge anyone thinking of joining Empire Gym, irrespective of confidence, circumstance or disabilities, to be brave and walk up the three steps, open the door and enjoy becoming a stronger, more confident person. Put in the effort and reap the benefits. Matt and Dave both have endless patience and understanding that it is a battle to become stronger, and are always very supportive.

Moving isn’t it? She’s a remarkably determined and positive lady. Anne isn’t the only one. There are tens of stories as powerful. A huge part of this is the work of my brother Dave. I tend to talk a lot, write a lot, appear in a lot of pictures and be at the forefront of projecting the Empire business into the public consciousness. My brother, however, takes a more reserved approach. Yet, Dave’s kind professionalism and his unmistakable warmth and emotional intelligence are foundational to the Empire way.

I just want to highlight that. There’s an awful lot of work done here on a one-to-one basis that people don’t see, and people’s lives are better for my brother’s talent.

Other news: I was delighted to represent Empire Gym as I took the stage at Burghley to take the warm-ups for 7,000 participants at the Rate Race obstacle course (20 miles, 200 obstacles. The biggest event of its kind in the world!)

Many thanks go to Darren and Andy at ‘The Fitness Finders’ for giving me such a wonderful opportunity. It really was one of the best experiences I’ve had in the fitness industry.

History

Discovering . . . the Town Hall

Rex Needle

T

he town hall has been the centre of local affairs in communities across the land for centuries, an imposing building which usually houses the city or town council and its associated departments and their employees. It also usually functions as the official headquarters of the mayor and the place where council meetings are held together with other significant events.

Most of our larger towns have one and those which exist in the less populated areas of rural England may be regarded as a sign of the pride which the people felt in the management of their affairs which was sufficient to finance such a venture.

A town hall is recorded in Market Deeping as early as 1563 when it was also used as a court house but new premises on the same site were proposed in the early 19th century and members of the public were invited to help foot the bill.

Thirty-nine substantial subscriptions were received, the biggest being £20 each from the rector, the Rev William Hillyard, and local businessman William Goodale, totalling £285 in all. Many smaller contributions were also made and the new building, described by a local newspaper as “a neat structure”, was erected in 1839 at a cost of £320 [£37,000 at today’s values], a remarkable expenditure for a market town with a population of 1,219 [1841 census].

It stands on the north side of the market place and was designed in the Tudor Gothic style by the Bourne architect Thomas Pilkington (1799-1889) and constructed of limestone with ashlar quoins and a Collyweston slate roof. The building also has a single but distinctive A-shaped gable and leaded lights while inside there is a baluster staircase with a curved handrail leading to offices situated over a ground floor waiting room. In the early years, felons were kept in the cells below until the police station opened across the road in 1880. .

The Town Hall has been in continual use ever since and was Grade II listed as being of historic and

architectural interest in 1987. There were originally two main doors, one on each side, but that on the left has been converted to a window. The Market Deeping Literary Institute met there from 1848 for reading and games followed by the town’s once active Social Club in 1909 but most importantly, the parish council, now the town council, has been holding meetings there since it was formed by the Local Government Act of 1894.

School News Baston C E Primary On May 2nd our Year 5/6 girls’ football squad played against other schools within the cluster group. They played well, won two matches and drew one, ending up in first position. Our boys’ squad played in a similar tournament at Deeping St James and came third overall. Well done to all involved.

During the Easter holidays a few Year 6 pupils attended workshops to help with revision. We had a great time with many goodies to feast on and a few games of football!

Deeping St James Community Primary School Things have been progressing well at “DSJ”. Our Spring Concert was fantastic and followed the theme of Rainbow Colours, with all the songs having a colour theme, such as ‘Black is Black’ and ‘Yellow Submarine’. A huge thank you to Mrs Young and all of our great musicians!

Our Year 5 pupils have taken part in the ‘bikeabilty’ scheme. All of the children who took part passed their Level 2 award, and are now all safe to travel on the roads!

We now have a Twitter feed; please follow us… @bastonceprimary An update on the ‘reading bus’. ‘Before and after’ shots! We are so grateful for all of the hard work that everyone is putting into this brilliant project.

The musicians from across all of our cluster schools are now looking forward to the Joint Schools’ Band Tour that starts in May. We’ve also had the children’s grandparents into school in our Key Stage 2 Grandparents’ Afternoon. The grandparents spend time in the classrooms with their grandchildren, have a wellearned cup of tea and a biscuit and then come into a special celebration assembly that we have each Friday afternoon. All staff, children and grandparents seem to really enjoy it.

The Year 1s have had a great trip to Woburn Safari Park to link in with their topic on animals. This was met with great excitement by the children, and they had a brilliant day identifying a huge range of animals.

We are all looking forward to the Deepings Literacy Festival, where children will be no doubt inspired and fascinated by famous authors like Cathy Cassidy and James Campbell. Thank you for all who put so much effort into this event.

As a school, if we can be of any assistance in the local community, please let me know!

Thanks, Ian Wilkinson , Headteacher

DIRECTorY Business FEATURE OF THE MONTH...

Mr Clever Clean Peterborough for Trust, Respect and Customer Satisfaction Mr Clever Clean Peterborough is owned and run by Connor Drummond and Leah Page. Connor took over the Peterborough and surrounding areas when he bought one of the franchises from his mum and dad, Mark Cave and Bridgett Drummond in June last year, (when they decided to franchise the business to move on to a narrow boat!)

The firm provide external cleaning, which includes driveways, patios, guttering, roofs, render cleaning and chimney sweeping. With their combined skills, they continue to establish the company’s reputation, ensuring that the overriding principle of high levels of customer satisfaction is achieved and maintained.

Repeat customers highlight their working relationship is based on trust

and respect, often allowing them to complete the clean without the customer needing to take time out of their busy lives.

Mr Clever Clean Peterborough use a cloud-based, customer management system that ensures that they can respond to enquiries promptly and efficiently - from the initial enquiry right the way through to the completion of your clean.

The success of the firm has led them to take on more commercial work, working closely with the council and schools.

In Connor’s words, “We pride ourselves on our returning customers and ensure that our new customers want to use us again in the future.

We would like to thank everyone for using us and getting us to where we are today”.
