From the editor

Welcome to the May edition of Local Reach, with Spring upon us and the spring bank holidays not too far away, the local events are starting up in earnest. Having just completed one of the biggest events I have been involved with – I admire more and more the dedication local people put into our local community. We would like to promote the town and the community activities that are happening through the year, ensure you give us plenty of notice of what you are planning and send across your editorial in good time. This month we see the popular food festival coming to town at the end of the month and the first of the CADs events at the Manor Gardens with Party in the Park – the spring tradition of May Day dancing is being celebrated at Marine Cove, a good start to the season! Take a look inside and see what is coming to the area over the next few weeks.

The family business you’ll be at home with When you buy windows, doors and conservatories there are three things you do need to be sure about - value-formoney, quality and the workmanship of the installers.

And the one thing you most certainly don’t need is being pressured into making decisions.

Kingfisher can set your mind at rest on all counts.

We are a long established family firm and family values dictate the way we do business. So much so that many of our customers become friends and, in turn, recommend us to their friends. Our product range is comprehensive and consistently keenly priced. It includes PVCu, timber and aluminium and can be viewed, at your leisure, at our East Brent showroom.

If you invite us to give you a quotation, we will take the time to establish your requirements exactly, explain the options and choices to you, give advice where required, take careful measurements and give you a clear, detailed breakdown of costs.

We will then leave you to make a decision in your own time. You will not be harassed or badgered.

customers, Mrs Dingle, puts it, ‘Kingfisher’s whole approach is different, there is no pressure and, to be honest, it’s like dealing with friends. As far as the fitting was concerned, not only was the work completed with infinite care, but the installers were a pleasure to have around’.

Please visit our web site www.thekingfisherfamily.com, call us on 01278 760616, email us at hello@thekingfisherfamily.com, or visit our East Brent showroom.

A family welcome awaits you.

We are open from 9am until 5pm Monday to Friday and 9.30am until 12.30pm on Saturday

Should you choose Kingfisher, you will find our fitters not only highly skilled, but prompt, courteous, polite and tidy. As one of our

Friends of Burnham on Sea War Memorial Hospital How much do you value your local hospital?

Would you prefer to attend Burnham Hospital for your out-patient consultant appointments or would a trip to Weston or Taunton suit you better? For minor injuries would you prefer to go to Burnham Hospital or travel to Weston or Taunton?

If you had to have a stay in hospital would you prefer the friendly atmosphere of a recently modernised Community Hospital or the less personal District General Hospitals in Weston or Taunton? If you had to visit a relative or friend in hospital would you prefer visiting Burnham Hospital or a journey to Weston or Taunton?

We are very fortunate to have a Community Hospital in Burnham. In other neighbouring counties community hospitals have been closed. The Friends of Burnham Hospital are proud of our hospital.

In the 50 years since we were formed we have raised over ÂŁ2 million, all of which has been spent to make hospital life more pleasant for both patients and staff.

If anyone has any memorabilia and photo’s that they could lend or give us, we would greatly appreciate the chance to display them. There will also be a memories book for visitors to record their thoughts etc. At the AGM, we have requested past youth worker Ken Hindle to chair the meeting, as Ken was the youth worker who started the building in the first place.

Also the proposed initiatives, and improvements. Additionally there will be reports from the various BAY centre’s clubs.

LOCAL EXPERT PAGE

Tips to improve the performance of your Windows computer: One of the most common queries we receive is how to deal with slow computers. Fortunately, with a few tricks, most slow computers can become noticeably more responsive without the need to purchase hardware upgrades. I will discuss some of the options below - but please remember that if you do not feel confident with this, feel free to call me on 07973 536299 and I can arrange to visit to look at your computer.

UPDATES: Make sure to check your computer has all the latest updates installed. Check on Windows Vista, 7, and 8 by opening the start menu, typing “Update”, clicking ‘Windows Update’ then click “Check for Updates”.

On Windows 10, click on “Settings” in the start menu, choose “Update & Security” then press “Check for Updates”.

STARTUP ITEMS: It is very common for unnecessary programs to open (often in the background) when you boot up your computer, simply disabling these items can lead to much faster boot times. To find out how to disable start-up items on your Windows computer, open your web browser and navigate to www.tinyurl.com/ disable-items. Disable only items that you do not want to run every time you power on, like Google Updater, but never disable items like your Anti-virus software.

TEMPORARY FILES: Over time, computers often get cluttered with old, unimportant files that can be deleted; this eventually makes your computer noticeably less responsive. Fortunately, this is easy to clear. To do this, on your keyboard, hold the Windows key and press R. In the box that opens, type %temp% and hit enter. Then delete all files within the folder that opens, and choose “skip” to files that are in use.

BROWSER CLUTTER: Make sure to clear your browser history every once in a while, as these can pile up and slow your computer down. To clear browsing history, open your browser then press Control+Shift+Delete on your keyboard, and select to delete all browsing history and click Clear/Delete at the bottom.

JUNKWARE: Another common reason for slow computers is Junkware, also known as bloatware, that has installed itself without you realizing, or that came pre-installed when you bought the machine. To remove Junkware, open “Programs and Features” from within the control panel, and uninstall software from thirdparty companies that are not wanted, such as Toolbars. Be very careful when doing this, as I have known people remove software drivers which could lead to no sound or no internet access.

Please get in touch if you would like any help with your computer at either home or work. Neil Buzzard, Director, Computer Problem Solutions Ltd. Tel: 07973 536299 or e-mail sales@e-cps.co.uk

SRYP is gearing up for the Best Summer Ever Following the success of SRYP’s NCS summer 2015, where 180 young people were guided through the programme - learning a whole host of new skills and raising awareness and money for 16 charities - we are set to do it all over again this year with a larger cohort of 360 young people! Somerset Rural Youth Project (SRYP), based in Edington, has delivered the government-backed National Citizen Service (NCS) since 2011. The scheme is designed to give young people the opportunity to spend time away from home trying new things, meet and learn from influential members of the community, and plan and deliver their own social action projects. SRYP is now recruiting year 11s and 12s from across Somerset for Summer NCS, which includes an activity residential on Exmoor, a second residential in Cannington, followed by two weeks of amazing social action and fundraising. The total cost is just £50 and places are filling fast. NCS looks great on CVs and university applications, and takes place during school and college holidays. We are also looking for anyone with youth work, coaching or teaching experience to fill temporary summer vacancies on the NCS project. This involves four week’s work, including two weeks of fun-packed residentials, and the pay ranges from £1,065 for a worker to £1,198 for a leader. Anyone interested in NCS as a participant or an employee can find more info at www.sryp.org.uk

GARDENING JOBS FOR MAY Plants from earlier sown seeds should be growing away now but they still need looking after, weed and feed.

Slugs are active so take whatever precautions you are happy with to control them.

Tall perennials, which need support, should be staked and any new growth tied in.

Prune back climbers and shrubs that have already flowered and remove dead and spindly growth.

Pull up spring bedding plants such as wallflower sand forget-me-nots when they have finished flowering.

Mow lawns regularly and weed and feed if necessary.

Clip hedges, such as privet, from now onwards.

Watch out for aphid attacks on indoor plants as they will multiply rapidly in the warmer weather.

Harden off any tender plants ready for planting out towards the end of the month when frosty nights should be over.

If you are sowing radish, beetroot, lettuce and

spring onion little and often is the key. Sow sweetcorn, courgettes, marrows and pumpkins in individual pots to produce strong plants for planting out later on.

Continue to hoe weeds regularly taking care not to damage the shallow roots and stems of cultivated plants.

Members of the Horticultural Society have been busy sowing seeds and potting on plants ready for their plant sale which is being held on Saturday 14th May at The Community Centre Berrow Road. The sale starts at 9.30am and finishes at 12.30pm. For more tips why not join your local gardening group?
