A culture lesson at the breakfast table and a great way to boost your income Given the continuing huge demand for places at UK boarding schools from overseas, Bright World Guardianships, a Sussex-based company, is predicting yet another increase in the number of students joining schools in the UK this September.

Bright World Guardianships is a long established guardianship company charged with offering care to international students in UK boarding schools whose parents are not living here. These bright and brave young students are full-boarders at schools but need host family accommodation when schools close for short breaks such as half terms and long weekends. With so many excellent independent schools in the UK, it is likely that an increase in demand will be evident here.

Hosting international students is a very fulfilling and rewarding role. Bright World does, of course, pay a generous nightly rate to cover expenses for visiting children, which can offer a valuable extra income to families. More than this though, hosting a young international student can make their entire experience in the UK a happy one. If you welcome them into your home they will actually look forward to long weekends and half terms and it will enhance their overall experience and impression of the UK. Your own children will also benefit from the exposure to sharing their home with an international student and will learn about new cultures and countries. Think of it as a geography and culture lesson at your breakfast table.

So becoming a Bright World host family can not only help pay for your annual holiday, but will also help to educate your own children about new cultures while making a young international student’s life so much better.

For more information on becoming a host family for Bright World Guardianships, please contact: Brian McAllister, Senior Safeguarding Manager by emailing brian@brightworld.co.uk

do you want to host an international student?

Bright World Guardianships takes care of international boarding students in UK schools. We are looking for families to host our students for some weekends and half terms.

This can be a very rewarding role and provides families with a valuable extra income.

Bright World is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

For more more information and an application pack please email: lindsay@brightworld.co.uk

Anne Jenkinson has adored knitting since her Nana taught her when she was just four.

THE CRAFTY KNITTER Wool, Haberdashery, Crafts

Over the years her passion developed into a part-time job selling quality supplies at good prices online, but soon it took over her life.

Knitting Patterns Sewing Accessories

In November, she opened The Crafty Knitter at Barton Square, Knott End. Not only does she now stock a wide range of wool, haberdashery and crafts, she is also a licenced seller of the prestigious PFAFF range of sewing machines.

Toy Making

Every Tuesday afternoon and evening, Anne hosts a craft meeting in the new function room and hosts the Patchwork Group meeting every Thursday morning. She plans to hold craft classes soon – and everybody is welcome.

Keep an eye on www.thecraftyknitter.co.uk for more information.

FIRST DRIVE: PORSCHE CAYMAN In the world of motoring you can never have too many Porsches to choose from. The German firm has been particularly industrious of late, what with special edition 911s and expanding its Panamera line-up.

Thankfully it’s also found time to bolster its Cayman range. For some this coupe is viewed as a mini 911, albeit one from a decade or two ago. Its more focused personality has seen it find favour with drivers seeking a back-to-basics experience but with all the electronic and comfort mod cons of today for good measure.

The Cayman is also a good bit more affordable than a modern day 911, although the gap does narrow somewhat when you start ticking boxes for the various tempting options. However, to view the Cayman solely as a cheaper alternative to the great 911 is to miss the point - it’s also a fantastic car in its own right.

This notion has been further reinforced by the introduction of an ‘R’ model. Following on logically from the not too shabby S model, you could say the R is aimed at the more demanding and appreciative

28

of the Porsche fan club. That might appear to be a very narrow section of buyers, but don’t forget that 911 GT3, GT3 RS and GT2 variants boast a considerable following despite their niche market positioning.

Granted, the Cayman R isn’t supposed to be a mini-me GT3, but its specification more than hints at the potential for above average thrills - even in the context of an already quick donor car.

What you get for you money - a price tag that’s closer to a 911 than you might first think - is something quite special. The Cayman R has lost a little bit of weight and gained a few choice improvements under the skin plus a few extra horsepower.

The Cayman’s 3.4-litre flat-six motor now boasts 330 horsepower, which is 10 more than the S. It’s already a peach of an engine, and while it’s in its element being exercised to the maximum it’s also torquey enough to happily trickle through town at low revs.

What makes the Cayman R that bit more special is the detailed suspension tweaks. A slightly lower ride height, camber changes fore and aft plus new anti roll bars, spring and damper modifications and lighter alloy wheels all add up to deliver a sublime experience for the discerning driver.

Unmanageable debt problems can happen quickly. Financial and personal circumstances change unexpectedly: unemployment, divorce or unexpected bills arrive, and before you realise, you are deeper and deeper in debt.

You start missing minimum monthly payments, you are charged for late payments and everything can seem out of control. Afraid to open the mail and answer the telephone, your money problems escalate and stress becomes unbearable.

Aspire has helped individuals for ten years.

We do not lend money and are not driven by commission earned from arranging loans.

We realise individual’s problems are unique:

30

our counsellers deal with the problems one to one, and give the best advice to suit your circumstances. We liaise with creditors to arrange a monthly repayment and aim to freeze interest/charges on your unsecured debt thereby reducing your monthly payments and your financial stress.

Our counsellors are happy to discuss your worries in complete confidence. You inform Aspire who your unsecured debts are with, we then prepare a statement of income and expenditure, calculate your monthly surplus income to share between your unsecured creditors and negotiate an affordable monthly repayment programme with them.

We make payments on your behalf, acting as a buffer between you and your creditors. We reduce the financial burden and put you back in control of your finances.

If you feel that Aspire could be of assistance, please call today, and you can start the journey to regain control of your finances, at no initial cost to yourself.

GREEN DEAL IS NOW HERE!!!

The Nations annual household bills have risen by £500 on average in the last five years, and prices are set to continue to rise. How can we deal with these continuing rising costs?

The Government are committed to helping and encouraging us to shop around for better deals on energy tariffs, but switching suppliers will not guarantee substantial savings. We already make inroads to saving energy by using energy saving light bulbs and turning off appliances when not in use, which are all helpful, but in order to make larger savings we must consider making our properties more efficient.

The UK has around 5 million homes without adequate Cavity Wall and Loft Insulation.

Despite the energy saving incentives offered in recent years, over a third of UK homes are still without suitable insulation.

Advertise Call 0800 970 7687

This is where the Green Deal comes in. Loft and Cavity Wall Insulation is the way forward.

You could qualify for 100% grant if you satisfy the criteria. If you own your own home, or privately rented accommodation, in receipt of either: - Child Tax Credit (Household Income of £15,860) - Income related Employment & Support Allowance - Income based Job Seekers Allowance - Income Support - State Pension Credit - Working Tax Credit

After Installation, you will see a reduction in your energy bills, reduction of heat loss and an improved energy rating. An Energy Performance Assessment is completed for every property, which is mandatory if you were to rent or sell your property.

Our team of trusted and highly skilled technicians are fully experienced to the highest accreditation and deliver an exceptional service. Every Cavity Wall Installation completed, is guaranteed for 25 years by CIGA (Cavity Wall Installation Guarantee Agency).

GARDENING Good enough to eat...

Best of the bunch...

Sumptuous

Peony

Well-known for their huge blooms in late spring and early summer, these blousy perennials will add a romantic, feminine touch to any border. They take a couple of seasons to settle down and produce flowers, hate being moved and prefer an open sunny spot, sheltered from cold winds - but the reward is a vast array of large blooms in colours from cream to deep red. The common peony, P. officinalis, is a cottage garden favourite, growing 60cm (2ft) high and producing 12cm (5in) blooms in a variety of shades, flowering in May and June. The most popular are P. lactiflora, which flower in June. Good scented varieties include ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ or ‘Sarah Bernhardt’. For big, bold flowers, go for ‘Bowl of Beauty’, which produces pink flowers with a cream centre. Others to watch out for include ‘Peter Brand’, which produces deep red blooms and whose foliage turns red in autumn, contrasting well with ornamental grasses and bearded irises.

Peonies need mulching in spring, staking and feeding with a general fertiliser in late summer.

The stems should be cut down to ground level in autumn.

1 40

Strawberries

With Wimbledon almost upon us, strawberries and cream are the order of the day. Even beginner gardeners have no excuse not to grow a few strawberry plants, even if they are only in pots or hanging baskets.

Strawberry plants are cheap and can be planted directly into garden soil or raised beds, and will normally last for three or four years before they need replacing.

They like fertile, well-drained soil with plenty of added organic matter, and are better off in a sunny spot. Water well while the plants are establishing, and also in hot, dry weather and when the fruits are swelling. Once the fruits have formed, avoid watering plants overhead as this can lead to grey mould.

Tuck clean straw under developing fruits to protect them from soil splash. Some people grow strawberries through plastic sheet mulches, which warm the soil and may bring forward cropping.

Others use fibre mats which can be put around each plant and protect late fruits in autumn from rain and cold weather.

3 ways to... Nuture nature in your hedge

Be kind to hedgehogs and leaflitter invertebrates by pushing small hedge trimmings under the hedge and leaving them to rot.

2

Encourage the holly blue butterfly by growing flowering holly and flowering ivy, as the caterpillars feed on the buds of these plants.

3

Don’t trim hedges during the bird-nesting season between March and the end of August.

JOIN IN WITH THE VINTAGE THEME! IT’S POULTON’S BIG DAY OF THE YEAR. DON’T MISS IT! Poulton’s Gala celebrations have a long history going back over 200 years, and this year we’re inviting everyone to join in with that “vintage” spirit! All the town’s businesses, shops and the people of Poulton, are invited to dress up their shop windows, and dress up themselves, to reflect that vintage theme.

The Big Parade, headed by the award-winning Poulton Band, starts at 12 noon and this year features a new extended figure-of-eight route which takes in all the town’s main shopping streets. It finishes in the Market Place, where the new Gala Queen will be crowned by the Mayor of Wyre.

The whole event focusses on the town centre, with the historic landmark St. Chad’s parish church as an impressive backdrop. There’ll be a full day of family entertainment in the Market Place from 10am right through to 6pm, with the amazing Poulton People’s

Choir, Poco Loco Samba Band, Singleton Cloggers, Tom McLeod, The Blue Pig Orchestra, The Blackpool Dead Good Poets, plus more singers, dancers, and displays. All this will show that Poulton, and the whole area, has truly got talent!

Other attractions include a Fun Fair on Cottam Hall, Art Open Day in the WRVS Room on Queensway, Photographic Exhibition in the Masonic Hall, Classic Car Event on Sunday 2nd June, and The Big Lunch in the Church Hall also on Sunday 2nd June. In addition, The “Chaddeans” Theatre Group are celebrating their 40th Anniversary with “Hooray for Hollywood” at the Church Hall (6th / 7th / 8th June).

Workshop by Carleton Community Chorus with Mr Bob Chilcott in attendance

evening, during term time, at Carleton Green Primary School from 7.00 until 8.30pm for rehearsals. All welcome, whether you have any musical knowledge or not. All that’s required is a love of singing.

Mr Chilcott is a well known composer in the music world and a member of the Association of British Choral Directors. This was a great opportunity for the choir to work with Mr Chilcott, particularly as he wrote a piece of music for the choir last Christmas and they were able to perform this, along with various pieces throughout the day.

The Choir is going from strength to strength and led by Musical Director, Andy Brooke, together with piano accompanist Brenda Bentley. Their latest concert was held on St George’s Day at St Martin's & St Hilda’s Church in Carleton. They meet every Tuesday

Some of the members of Carleton Community Chorus who attended a workshop at Fulwood Methodist Church on Saturday 27th April with Bob Chilcott
