“Using a meat thermometer really is a game-changer. It takes the guesswork out of grilling your favourite meats and ensures it’s cooked to perfection, both in terms of nest boxes, insect hotels, a south-facing bat box and a hedgehog home, although we’re not completely sure if our hedgehogs live there or under the green compost corner. And, by the way, green compost is a great addition to any garden because it provides food and shelter for huge numbers of invertebrate species”.

North Down DUP MLA Stephen Dunne has welcomed Rangers FC Soccer Academy to Millisle, as they completed a three day summer soccer school programme at Abbey Villa. Mr Dunne, who is also his Party’s Sports Spokesperson added:

‘It is fantastic to have Rangers Football Club hosting a summer holiday camp in Millisle in conjunction with Abbey Villa Football Club. I was delighted to call in and meet with the coaches and see some of the activity going on with so many young people enjoying this football camp on the last day of this year’s programme. Football is an incredible sport, which is enjoyed by so many of all ages, which has so many benefits including physically, mentally and socially. It was really encouraging to see so many young people enjoying this summer camp during the school holidays in Millisle.

Playing team sports like football can bring so many skills both on and off the pitch, and getting children and young people involved in physical activity and participation is great to see. This is the third year that the Rangers Soccer Academy NI have hosted a summer camp in Millisle, and it is great to have such a large club like Rangers taking an active interest in sport locally. Millisle has a great history of football over many years, and the future is certainly looking bright with so many young footballers enjoying this camp, and I know within Millisle Primary School, there is also a lot of football activity for young people to enjoy and benefit from.’
