Mad about Morris
A brief history of Britain’s quirkiest dance tradition he tin le of bells, the rhythmic thump of feet hitting the ground and the clic of stic s struc together, all in time to the rousing music of an accordion. t s the sound of the s most ancient dance tradition. o e er, hile many enthusiasts see Morris dancing as a touchstone of ritain s ancient rural culture, a little research into the history of the dance re eals some surprising theories about its origins. ome historians belie e the name Morris is deri ed from the ord oorish, the name gi en to a group of orth African Muslims ho ruled pain from to . uring the th century their culture inspired a fashion for exotic spectacle amongst the royal courts of urope, hen each country came up ith its o n uni ue ersion of a Moorish dance.
hen ondon s oldsmiths Company made a payment of se en shillings to the troupe of dancers ho had entertained them, and documents from the court of enry sho that a mourice dance as performed at Christmas in the year .
The earliest written record of the Morris dance is from 1448 Taking ‘sides’ Morris dancing ent in and out of fashion during the th and th centuries but en oyed a re i al during the ictorian era. n an organisation called he Morris ing as established to promote Morris traditions, but the group caused contro ersy by not allo ing females to oin.
omen to its ran s, but still refused to accept them as dancers. o adays attitudes ha e changed, and the organisation s ebsite currently states At our Annual epresentati es Meeting there as o er helming support for a proposal to enable any Morris team, hate er its gender ma e up, to become a member of he Morris ing if they support the founding principles of the organisation.” nfortunately, gender discrimination is not the only contro ersy to ha e dogged the orld of Morris dancing. he tradition in hich some sides paint their faces blac is thought to ha e originated hen dancers tried to disguise themsel es hilst begging for tips public begging as illegal at the time . hate er the roots of this practice, it s not hard to understand hy it might cause offence in the multicultural ritain of today. Although the debates surrounding Morris traditions continue to rumble on, they appear to ha e had little impact on the May ay re i al that is currently being en oyed in the . i en the ritish public s desire to reconnect ith its ancient cultural traditions, it seems that the number of Morris sides in the presently around , ill continue to gro . o hat are you aiting for t s time to tie on those sil er bells, put o ers round your hat and get ready to elcome in the summer.

In the C C report, a client s family member is uoted as saying, It s the e cellent support that my father recei es that enables him to continue to li e in his own home. Currently, ust of home care companies are rated as outstanding, so the award is a real accolade and testament to the ser ice obser ed by the inspectors. In their findings, they reported that eople recei ed e ceptionally personalised care and support specific to their needs and lifestyle choices and that Home Instead put people at the heart of the ser ice. lison oynihan, director of Home Instead, said, e are thrilled that the Care uality Commission has awarded us with an outstanding rating, recognising the wonderful team here at Home Instead. e care ery much about our clients and our caregi ers, who each and e ery day go the e tra mile, ma ing sure that we are pro iding e ceptional care at home and out in the wider community. lison and her husband rian oynihan, co directors of Home Instead, are also praised in the report, which states that leadership was e ceptional and distincti e .

The report highlighted that aura was, e tremely nowledgeable and someone who inspires confidence and passion within the staff team. There are numerous e amples included in the report which demonstrate how caring for people is at the heart of the ser ice. ne client was supported throughout their discharge from hospital by their caregi er who maintained regular contact with health care professionals to ensure that the right care and support was pro ided on the person s return home. In that instance, a family member stated that the team went abo e and beyond. Inspectors heard about a Home Instead client who had a lifelong interest in horses and one breed in particular, but they hadn t been able to ha e contact with horses for a long time. The team new how much it meant and arranged for their client to isit a local stables that specialised in the breed, allowing them to spend time around the horses which was such a special moment for e eryone. lso ta ing e tra care of their client s li es and disli es is hugely important, and one client really en oyed a cup of tea and it had to be ust right. So their caregi er put together notes, step by step, on how they li ed their tea prepared with personalised tea ma ing instructions built into their care plan, so it would always be perfect.

This means they ha e time to build up relationships with their clients, learn about what they li e and what moti ates them. ithout the rapport that e ists between our caregi ers and their clients, we simply couldn t support older people in their independence as well as we do. To care, you really ha e to care Home Instead is uni ue in that clients are matched to caregi ers that share their interests.

Such as a client who wanted to go swimming, so they were matched with a caregi er who is also a swimming instructor. The caregi er was able to ta e them swimming and supported them so they could swim happily and safely.

WE ARE OFFICIALLY ‘A’ RATED

Great people to buy your Windows & Conservatories from!
f you’re thinking about brightening up your home with new windows or extending and increasing the value of your property by adding a conservatory, our new guide ‘The Seven Costly and Potentially Disastrous Mistakes People Make When Buying Conservatories and Windows’ will help you ensure you get exactly what you pay for.
Is this what’s on your mind? After installing 92,500 double glazed units and 3,814 conservatories David says he knows what’s on your mind when you’re considering buying windows and conservatories.
1. You don’t want to be pressured into buying – so we don’t employ those high pressure salespeople that double glazing companies have become infamous for. Instead, our designers will work with you, at your own pace and help you to maximise your budget and have complete peace of mind. 2. You worry about the safety of your money – so we don’t ask for big up front payments. As a long established, financially stable company, we’re not desperate to get our hands on your money.
Window and door designs to capture your imagination
3. You’re concerned about the mess that might be caused – so we employ a ‘tidy up system’ and we clean as we go, window by window, day by day. 4. You don’t want to be let down by missed start or completion dates – so we employ one of the industries top installation managers to manage our ten highly experienced fitting teams, some of whom have now been with us for over thirteen years. 5. And of course you want a fair price – our quotations speak for themselves… see for yourself by phoning for a free quotation or visiting our showroom for a no hassle browse.

Bob’s still got what it takes at 88 years young... reclaiming a Cup that he rst won 66 years ago Huge congratulations to Bob Day who last month won the Frodsham and District Billiard League, receiving The Catherall Cu or n i i ua erit n a ar that he rst on years ago in the 1951-1952 league, aged 22 years. he Cathera Cu as rst resente in 9 9 y Cathera s an Bo as a so the rou re i ient in the 9 eague an a so in the 9 eague t is a assi e a hei e ent to win it once again, especially at 88 years; infact he is the oldest person to have ever won the cup - well done Bob! Bob started playing billiards at the age of 14 and currently plays for the team at Manley Village Hall. He is now the proud Captain of the team and still plays with the same cue that he has ha or years, a ter a uiring it or the ri e y onation o Many of you, particularly Helsby residents will know Bob who is a very popular local man. I’ve kno n Bo or any years, ha ing een in the sa e Hi si e Pri ary hoo ass an He s y High hoo year as his son, ike a so ha e ery on e ories o Bo as aretaker at He s y Community Centre, a position that he held for twenty years and he is still very much involved as deputy caretaker, covering holidays and helping out whenever he is needed. I had a lovely coffee and catch up with Bob and his wife, Phyllis, reminiscing about school with Mike (they also have two older daughters, Jen and Carole) and ‘Minis and Mums’ which was held at Helsby Community Centre when our boys were little and Bob was caretaker. He really was a godsend, helping us mums to get all of the toys and equipment out every Thursday and putting it all away again. Bob was always the one up the ladder stacking shelves as we passed various boxes full of toys, trikes, garages, ironing boards etc up to him. I’m sure that all of the other mums join me in saying “thank you Bob”. As will all of the other local groups: an e sho s, o ee ornings, ingos, hur h ayres, kee t u s an e eryone e se ho has and those who still do use the Community Centre. In addition to Bob’s involvement with Helsby Community Centre and Billiards Clubs, he also starte He s y i age Bo s C u at He s y Co unity orts C u ith ohn Carter in Bob is still Chairman of this club and in his words he says “it really brings people together and helps to give them something to do, especially during the winter months”. If that’s not enough, he also plays snooker in the Frodsham League Bob you certainly are one to be admired!
