Newcastle Weekly contents

thursday 04 may 2017

This week...

From the editor It is only fitting that our biggest edition yet – a whopping 92 pages – is dedicated to mums everywhere.

Welcome to our bumper Mother's Day edition, folks.

I think it is fair to say that most of us would be lost without mum. She loved us from before we were born – without question or doubt – and has had our backs ever since.

My mum has supported me from netball court sidelines, dance concert audiences, my bedside in illness, and, from afar, through my primary, high school, and tertiary studies. She truly is my number one cheerleader.

We've travelled the world together, and I've seen her sing karaoke and bust a move on the dancefloor more times than I'm embarrassed to say, but what are mums for? Exactly that.

Not only do I have a mum who thinks the world of me, I also have a stepmum, three aunties, and two grandmothers – not everyone is that lucky.

In this edition, you'll find our ninepage Mother's Day feature, starting on page 39; Mother's Day gift guides in The Look and Home; and a handful of Mother's Day giveaways, scattered throughout the magazine.

We also have our heartwarming Mother's Day cover story on page 49, and a sweet tale about modern-day foster care on page 19.

news World-first initiative gives fathers a helping hand

SMS4dads chief investigator Dr Richard Fletcher.

8

ecoming a father is one of the most joyful experiences life can offer. But, for some, the sudden responsibility of caring for a newborn can often lead to mental distress.

In order to combat this, a world-first smartphone program has been helping Australians with the transition to fatherhood.

Beyondblue partnered with the University of Newcastle and the Movember Foundation in 2015 to create SMS4dads.

The program sends regular text messages to fathers, offering uncomplicated information, advice and encouragement during the lifechanging experience.

It is synchronised with a baby’s development, so dads receive timely and relevant advice about supporting their partner during pregnancy and looking after their newborn.

The results from a national trial, which were released last month, showed that 92% of participants found the initiative to be helpful.

SMS4dads chief investigator and Associate Professor at the University of Newcastle, Dr Richard Fletcher, said he was pleased with the

response to the trial. “[The feedback] is very satisfying and confirms the belief that this is a good way to talk to dads when they’re busy,” he said.

“They get three messages a week, so it’s pleasing that they have stayed with it until the end.”

Following its success in Australia, Dr Fletcher said the program could launch overseas in the near future.

“It’s only early days, but we’re also looking to develop it for Africa, England, Canada and the United States,” he said.

“The program has the effect that it feels like someone is talking to them and looking after them.

“We’ll also ask fathers to say how they’re going and, if it’s not well, then that goes to a telephone helpline which rings them up.

“Most services are focused on mums and, while fathers don’t object to that, there’s not much there for them.”

news Appealing to community’s generosity

Maitland Cancer Appeal founding members Lesley Flannery, Alice Bennis and Ingrid Heyman. Photo: Peter Stoop

Founding member Alice Bennis says the Maitland Cancer Appeal lives by the motto “a dollar we’ve got today is a dollar that we didn’t have yesterday”.

It is an attitude that has served the popular op-shop well for more than three decades.

The Rutherford-based organisation is showing no signs of slowing down after celebrating its 35th birthday.

During the celebrations, the organisation presented a $200,000 to Hunter Medical Research Institute representative Professor Hubert Hondermarck.

The donation is just the latest in an ever-increasing list, with the group remaining eager to offer financial assistance towards research into lesserknown cancers.

“We generally try and give to ones that people raise the least amount of money for,” Ms Bennis says.

“This year, we decided that our goal

was pancreatic cancer.

“We also now hope to provide another $100,000 to women’s ovarian cancer in December.”

That will bring the total raised by the appeal over the past five years to about $700,000.

It’s a figure that could not have been reached without the generosity of the local community.

“The people of Maitland are the most giving people I know,” Ms Bennis adds.

“If you’re down and out, there’s always someone who will lend a hand.

“But, I’d really just like to thank anyone who comes into the shop because we actually get people from all over the place like Sydney, Singleton and Muswellbrook.

“All of our money is spent in the Hunter Valley and nobody gets paid - it’s all voluntary.

“That makes a really big difference to the final total.”

news Dr Ken Havill, nurse Danielle Martin and parents Jodie and David Johnson at the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit with little Emmett, who was being treated for bronchiolitis.

New, $14 million facility a boost for critically-ill children Having a child in intensive care is one of the most stressful times a family can face.

But a new, state-of-the-art facility at John Hunter Children’s Hospital will provide a boost for some of the region’s most

vulnerable young patients.

The $14 million Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), which officially opened on Monday, is set to enhance critical services for children within a family-friendly environment.

The eight-bed unit features separate overnight accommodation and a parent room for some quiet time.

Acting director of the intensive care unit, Dr Jorge Brieva, says the facility will help the hospital handle an increase in demand.

Its emergency department is one of the busiest in the state, treating nearly 25,000 children and young people annually.

“We have more than 300 kids under the age of 16 who require intensive care each year,” Dr Brieva says.

“Many of them are for respiratory issues but some also have treatment for trauma, severe infections, or need major operations.

“This purpose-built facility now allows mothers and fathers of very sick kids to stay, and have a

BEFORE

comfortable stay, at a time that is very stressful for them.

“We’ve been lobbying for years to have it built so the kids can have a safer and better facility.”

NSW health minister Brad Hazzard believes the PICU will be of major benefit to the region.

“This unit has been designed specifically with families’ needs in mind,” Mr Hazzard says.

“By building [it], we are ensuring our most vulnerable patients get access to the best care available in a modern clinical facility.”

Meanwhile, work on stage two and three of the state government-funded, $18 million Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) refurbishment at John Hunter Children’s Hospital is also progressing on schedule. It is due to be completed in mid-2018.

Jasmine Horrocks is on a mission to help.

The 23-year-old graduated from the University of Newcastle last week with a plethora of awards, including the University Medal, the Faculty Medal and the Honours Prize.

After opting to do a Bachelor of Development Studies, her passion for people quickly shone through.

She went on to complete an honours thesis on the value and importance of community housing for older Australians.

It proved to be highly beneficial.

Miss Horrocks’ work included interviews with tenants and staff from locally-based Compass Housing Services in Newcastle, Maitland, and the Central Coast.

During her research, she found an increasing number of Australians aged 60 or over were facing housing insecurity in retirement.

And, with the state government planning to transfer more public housing to community housing organisations over the next 10 years, she felt it was important to look into whether the latter could provide a home for vulnerable, older Australians.

“I wanted to do something that

would have a big impact,” she said.

“I loved chatting to people and hearing what community housing was like.

“People were more positive and appreciative of community housing than I expected, and I was surprised by how many people genuinely loved their home.

“It was obvious how much of a positive impact their home had on them and their lives, particularly a reduction in stress.”

Miss Horrocks’ practical recommendations have been adopted by Compass staff in relation to home design, support services, and activities that can help improve home-making.

After finishing her studies, the Berkeley Vale resident is now working for international agency Baptist World Aid. It’s the type of role she clearly enjoys.

“I’m interested in the international development space, but also local social concerns and community development projects,” she said.

“I have just aimed to get into a position where I can be helping people.”

University graduate eager to lend others a hand

We’ve closed our warehouse but you can still donate direct to our stores.

Open adoption the ideal outcome Five-year-old Lilly Berry will never wonder who her biological parents were, nor is she likely to contemplate running away from home when she is older.

That’s because her adoptive parents, Darren and Belinda Berry, maintain open communication with Lilly’s birth mother, Crystal.

The Waratah West couple send Crystal photos and updates on their daughter, and facilitate semi-regular contact with Crystal and Lilly’s siblings and grandparents, and, when he is in touch, her father.

This kind of open adoption arrangement is precisely what the state government declared, only weeks ago, would be the ideal outcome for the almost 20,000 children in foster care in New South Wales. The government announced significant reforms to out-of-homecare, including a means-tested

allowance for adoptive families, to make it easier to transition children to a safe, permanent home for life.

Of course, not all biological parents can or should stay in contact with their children, but this is the best case scenario.

In Lilly’s case, Darren and Belinda have cared for her her entire life, but she has always known where she came from.

Crystal was about halfway through her pregnancy, five years ago, when she decided she was unable to care for Lilly.

With six other children in foster care at the time, Crystal said she couldn’t bare the thought of another child “getting lost in the system”.

“I wanted her to go somewhere she’d be loved and get what she needed,” she said.

Crystal’s father, Richard, knew Darren, and that he and Belinda had

tried IVF unsuccessfully three times after losing their three-week-old son, Jack, in 2007, and offered them the chance to adopt Lilly.

Four days after Lilly was born on 1 March 2012, a besotted Darren and Belinda took their little girl home.

“Sometimes I think that’s why Jack left; because she needed us more,” Belinda said.

Initially, the Berrys fostered Lilly through CatholicCare’s Out of Home Care program. They couldn’t start the formal adoption process until Lilly was two, but, last month, that lengthy process finally came to an end when Lilly May Hardy became Lilly May Berry.

To that end, Belinda hailed the government’s reforms.

“To be able to give a child the chance to have a stable home for life is priceless,” she said.

Partnership boosts kids’ literacy skills A new initiative that aims to improve literacy in school-aged Aboriginal children has launched at Toronto Library.

The Aboriginal Literacy Improvement Program is a partnership between Lake Macquarie City Council’s Lake Mac Libraries and Life Without Barriers.

Currently one of Australia’s largest leading social purpose organisations, Life Without Barriers works in more than 300 communities across all states and territories.

Its major services include family support and out-of-home care, mental health services, youth justice, disability services, community-based aged care, homelessness services, support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and support to refugees and asylum seekers.

Life Without Barriers’ State Lead for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Initiatives, Les Ahoy, said the new program would be a big boost to children’s literacy skills.

“This program introduces literacy resources to Aboriginal children, which

encourages reading and engagement with books,” he said.

“Through the program, parents and carers will [also] be encouraged to read books with their children.

“And, in doing so, they will be empowered to be the role models for their children.”

Lake Macquarie council’s manager of cultural services, Jacqui Hemsley, said the partnership would improve literacy rates while also encouraging great connections with Aboriginal heritage.

“Council is strongly committed to promoting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture throughout the city, so we’re pleased to be partnering with Life Without Barriers to deliver this ongoing program of events relating to digital literacy, family history, art and storytelling,” she said.

The literacy program will coincide with the council’s new after-school event, Stories in the Big Blue Chair, and continue throughout the July school holidays.

Newcastle City Library will soon be thrust into the digital age.

A major refurbishment is underway to modernise the library ahead of the War Memorial Cultural Centre’s 60th anniversary.

The $1.3 million upgrade will provide more room to read, research or escape the elements, as well as quiet spaces and a children’s zone.

A new digital ‘makerspace’, which will showcase the latest

technologies, is also being built on the first floor, along with new collaborative work and study areas.

A $200,000 infrastructure grant from the NSW State Library funded the upgrade, supplemented by $1.1 million from Newcastle council. The library is closed until Monday 8 May. A temporary library will operate on the second floor from 8 May until the revamped ground floor reopens in September.

‘Mumpreneur’ Jennifer Holland has made history.

Her company, Holland’s Healthcare, became the first female-led, Australian organisation to be recognised at the prestigious Edison Awards in New York City.

As the founder and chief executive officer, Jennifer was on hand to collect silver in the Health and Wellness Patient Care category for her Throat Scope medical invention.

The oral examination device depresses the tongue to allow a clear view of the entire mouth and throat.

Scooping the award was a surreal moment; one the Hunter mother-of-four would never forget.

“I always wanted to invent something that would have a positive impact on the world,” Jennifer said.

“Now I know that will become a reality.”

Jennifer said Holland’s Healthcare aimed to create a movement that would lead to more people using Throat Scope for early detection of oral cancer.

“Now we have an Edison Award behind us, I know we can go out there and potentially save lives,” she said.

Jennifer added her children had also played an important role in the company’s success.

“They have been a big part of everything that we do, whether it’s testing of products, videos, marketing, and even support or advice,” she said.

The lightbulb moment for Throat Scope came from her sick son’s trip to the doctor’s in 2009.

Following that “distressing” experience, Jennifer set about working on what would be the world’s first all-in-one throat and tongue depressor.

The device launched onto the market six years later, and quickly took off.

Throat Scope is now being distributed to more than 140 countries, with doctors, speech pathologists, schools and veterinarians among those benefitting from the breakthrough product.

Belmont High School students Sean Crook, Liam Banks, Owen Longstaff and Dom Maley with Lake Macquarie Young Citizen of the Year, Toby Kable (centre).

Shaping young men into top blokes An innovative partnership is set to provide young men across Lake Macquarie with positive male mentors.

The Junior Top Blokes Mentoring Program will address 15 topics, including alcohol and other drugs, mental health, masculinity, anger

management, cyber bullying, sexting, and respectful relationships.

Top Blokes Community Activities Lake Macquarie (CALM) joined forces with the Top Blokes Foundation to bring the initiative to the area.

It will be delivered at Belmont, Morisset, Wakefield and Glendale

Technology high schools from term two.

Special education teacher and Lake Macquarie Young Citizen of the Year, Toby Kable, will play a role in the weekly mentoring program.

He said it was an important project for the region.

“I’m really looking forward to it,” he said.

“I won that [Young Citizen of the Year award] off the back of my community work with small businesses, people with disabilities, and from coaching a lot of different sporting teams, so I’ve got that background in bringing people together.

“Through this program, we’re going to be showing young people how to be a role model as well as teaching them life skills.”

The Junior Top Blokes Mentoring Program was previously

well-received in Sydney and Wollongong.

Evaluation results from 2016 indicated 84% of participants significantly changed their opinions about alcohol and other drug use; 75% learned new techniques for conflict resolution and anger management; 91% found they learned something new about looking after their own mental health; and 86% of participants believed the program had increased their overall self-confidence.

If you run a business and have the capacity to help this program reach more young men, then CALM encourages you to join the journey and sponsor a school.

It is a $17 per student, per week investment in a young person’s future.

‘You don’t know what the league will throw at you’

Knights desperate for victory

Newcastle Northstars coach Andrew Petrie admits he didn’t expect his squad to be heading into this Saturday’s clash against Melbourne Ice with just one win so far this season.

Newcastle suffered successive defeats in a tough double-header to start the season before bouncing back with a 5-2 victory over the Sydney Bears in front of a packed home crowd.

The defending champions then faced Canberra Brave for the first time since last year’s Australian Ice Hockey League decider.

In a back-and-forth contest, the Brave exacted some revenge for that grand final loss, claiming a tense 5-4 win in a shootout.

Despite the improved performances, Petrie said the Northstars had a few things to work on ahead of this weekend’s fixtures.

“I didn’t expect us to be four games in with only one clean win,” he said.

“I probably thought we would split that or do a little bit better.

“But, you don’t know what the league is going to throw at you when you go and play these teams.

“They were very good. But so were we.”

The Newcastle Knights will return home on Sunday in search of a desperately-needed win.

Another promising first-half performance last weekend saw Newcastle lead early against the Gold Coast Titans.

Knights second-rower Sam Stone crashed over in the 13th minute and Brock Lamb slotted a penalty goal shortly afterwards to give the visitors an 8-0 advantage.

Gold Coast star Jarryd Hayne scooted across the line a few minutes later to reduce the deficit to 8-6 at the break.

Then, in what has become a familiar pattern, Newcastle leaked 32 unanswered points in the second period to succumb to a seventh straight defeat.

It left the Knights anchored to the bottom of the ladder, two points behind the Penrith Panthers.

Newcastle tackles Canberra in round 10 action this weekend. Kick-off is at 2pm.

TENDER LOVING CUISINE

Ailsa Davies (pictured) recently had the story of her father, Neville Ambrose Davies, told at a special remembrance ceremony of Newcastle’s World War I soldiers.

It has been included on a special service and commemorative CD launched at the Wallsend Diggers Club on 22 April.

The story tells of intimate letters between Neville and his sweetheart, fiancé Edna Mathews.

It provides a glimpse into one man’s wartime experiences, both happy and tragic.

Ailsa has been studying and researching her family ancestry for many years and managed to find a connection right back to 1858.

Alisa has resided at Jenny MacLeod Retirement Village for nearly two years and keeps herself busy tracing her family tree, embroidering and playing the piano for the residents.

They say history repeats itself, and, in Hunter Street’s case, that’s certainly true, Lambton author Julie Keating has found.

In the late 19th Century – the period in which Keating’s latest book, Newcastle’s Hunter Street: the first hundred years, is set – Newcastle’s railway line was a point of contention.

Today, more than 100 years later, that is still true.

Back in those days, the heavy rail line terminated at Honeysuckle Point Railway Station, near the presentday Civic Station.

It was soon realised that

48

extending the rail line further down Hunter Street, toward the beach, would benefit businesses in the city’s east end.

Many Novocastrians were “horrified” that a rail extension would cut across their access to the harbour, Keating says, but business considerations won, and the rail line was extended in 1858.

Today, the situation is in reverse, with the state government’s decision to terminate trains at Hamilton Station; rip up the heavy rail line into the city, and, instead, run a light rail service down Hunter Street.

“It’s funny how things come full

Lambton author Julie Keating at the new Newcastle Courthouse, where the Northumberland Building Society once stood (pictured behind Keating).

circle,” Keating said.

But rail is not all the book explores.

Featuring the old post office and The Store co-op on the front cover, the book maps Hunter Street’s government and retail buildings during the 19th Century, and traces the street’s development from a rough bush track to a bustling retail hub at the turn of the 20th Century.

Keating used a Newcastle and suburbs 1901 street directory to compile this information.

With Hunter Street currently

undergoing further revitalisation, it certainly doesn’t look the same today.

“It’s rather sad that [some buildings] don’t seem to last long,” Keating said.

The project took eight months to complete, culminating in an exhibition, which opens at Newcastle Regional Library today (Thursday 4 May) and runs for two months.

The book is available for $25 at MacLeans Booksellers, Marketown Newsagency, and Newcastle CBD Newsagency.

Hunter Street history on show

In a beautiful antique cupboard, inside Nina DiCesare’s home, sits a mountain of old cake tins, bowls and spatulas; neatly and lovingly stacked.

They were passed down to Nina from her late mother, Margaret, along with several handwritten recipe books, containing all of her trade secrets.

In the seven years since Margaret passed away, those treasured keepsakes have been used just the way she intended: for show baking.

Nina never set out to be a show baker, yet, two months after her mother had passed away, the Coal Point resident found herself entering her mother’s fruitcake in the Morisset Show – made with fruit Margaret had pre-prepared, no less.

Growing up in an Italian family, Margaret had always loved cooking, and, as young children, Nina and her siblings were expected to be hands-on in the kitchen. Evidently, though, it would be Nina who would come to love cooking as much as her mother.

It wasn’t until later in life that Margaret took up show baking, entering her cakes in regional shows and collecting many ribbons, to boot.

Nina appears to have followed in her

cover story

mother’s footsteps, winning a slew of awards at Newcastle, Singleton, Morisset, Gloucester, Sydney, and Canberra shows over the years.

Her rich fruitcake – baked following her mother’s recipe – won first-place at the 2017 Sydney Royal Easter Show, as did her butter cake.

Nina also won first-place for her afternoon tea tray and pikelets, as well as second-place for her pudding, fruitcake, light fruitcake, and American fruitcake (you can see the DiCesare fruitcake is a crowd-pleaser) at the Newcastle Regional Show in March.

And she does it all to continue her mother’s tradition.

“I think she’d be very proud,” Nina said.

“If she were here, she’d constantly be encouraging me to try new things and think outside the square.”

But the baking bug doesn’t stop with Nina.

Her daughter, Antoinette, also loves to bake, as do her grandchildren Anara and Carter.

Something tells Newcastle Weekly this is a tradition that will stand the test of time.

Rocking around the clock One of Australian rock music’s most enduring talents has enjoyed a stellar career spanning more than 50 years.

And, it’s showing no signs of slowing down.

Ross Wilson, often referred to as Mr Eagle Rock, is still performing at over 100 shows throughout Australia with his live action band The Peaceniks.

It might seem like a busy schedule for the former Daddy Cool and Mondo Rock frontman, but he disagrees.

“I’d actually like to do more,” he says with a laugh.

“You read about guys like [American Blues great] B.B. King, who was 88 years old and still doing about 300 shows or something ridiculous like that.

“There can be times where there’s a lot of travelling and

Ross Wilson’s stellar career shows no signs of slowing down.

hanging around, but it’s all worth it once you’re on stage.

“People come along to see me play, and I don’t play at them, I play with them.

“I’m not a particularly social guy, so music is a great way of communicating for me.”

One of Mr Wilson’s upcoming performances will be at Wests New Lambton on Saturday 13 May. He is looking forward to returning to the Hunter Region, and says the audience can expect a mixture of his work over the years.

“I’ve had several careers as a performer; you’ll hear a selection from my time with Daddy Cool and Mondo Rock, along with some solo stuff and a couple of new tunes,” he says.

Relive halcyon days of pub rock era The pub rock era was one of the most exciting and defining of Australia’s musical evolution.

And there was one band at the centre of it all: Cold Chisel.

Now, Hunter punters will get the chance to relive those halcyon days with Swingshift, the highlyacclaimed Cold Chisel show.

Regarded by many as the country’s most authentic, it serves as a tribute to Jimmy Barnes, Ian Moss,

Digging home-grown food at Tocal Field Days

HENG LOONG RESTAURANT

It’s a popular annual attraction for hobby farmers and families alike.

And, this year’s Tocal Field Days will feature urban and community gardens in a bid to encourage visitors to grow their own food.

Event manager Wendy Franklin says she is excited about the chance to engage both city and country residents.

“You don’t need a huge parcel of land to grow your own food, and city families especially will be surprised and delighted at what they can do in their own backyards,” she says.

There’ll be talks and demonstrations on topics such as fencing and safe cattle-handling; the animal nursery will return; as will the working dogs, horses, and everything in between.

Don’t miss Tocal Field Days – Friday 5 May to Sunday 7 May at Tocal Agricultural Centre. Visit tocalfielddays.com for more information.

HEBEL SCULPTURE

Finite Gallery is not just a beautiful, contemporary space in which to admire the art that adorns the walls; it’s also a place to learn about art in all its forms.

Since the gallery’s inception four years ago, owner Leslie Duffin has made it her mission to host workshops, classes and talks that enrich the local community.

These include, but are not limited to, adult’s art classes, children’s after-school art classes, and weekend workshops.

Past workshops have covered everything from classical drawing to screen printing and photography.

“I want people to know it’s not just an exhibiting gallery,” Leslie said.

“It’s a place people can learn about art. If people come in looking for something for their walls, I like to think I can help them understand the processes behind it.”

Leslie also recently kicked off First Fridays @ Finite – a monthly talk on the first Friday of the month, featuring a guest speaker.

The next guest speaker is portrait artist Rachel Milne.

Milne is set to deliver her talk at the gallery

Finite Gallery owner Leslie Duffin inside the Caves Beach gallery.

tomorrow, Friday 5 May from 7pm to 9pm.

Then, on Sunday 7 May, Milne will lead a portraiture workshop at the gallery from 10am to 3.30pm.

Finite Gallery has called Caves Beach home for the past four years.

It was previously located opposite its current premises, in an old petrol station, but relocated in September 2015 to a more modern premises.

Unlike many other galleries, Finite has a constantly changing set of artworks on display, rather than featuring one particular artist’s work at a time.

Finite Gallery is located at 60 Caves Beach Road, Caves Beach.

Fruit and vegetables can be cheaper than prepackaged food. Photo: expophoto.com.au

FRUIT AND VEG BENEFITS OUTWEIGH COST Do you avoid eating fruit and vegetables because fresh produce is too expensive? If so, you’re not alone.

A 2016 Cancer Council NSW consumer attitudes survey found 42% of respondents were not eating enough

fruit, while 87% had not kept up with the recommended amount of vegetables, and many cited cost as a major factor.

In response to this, Cancer Council NSW’s flagship nutrition program Eat It To Beat It is recruiting parents for free Fruit & Veg Sense workshops across the Hunter.

The workshops, which will be held at various locations until July, aim to show the importance of family members eating two serves of fruit and five serves of vegetables every day to cut cancer risk.

Hunter nutrition project officer Clare Murphy said they would provide practical, budgetfriendly ways to achieve this target.

“Some people believe that fruit and vegetables are expensive, but if you compare the cost with that of meat or pre-packaged snacks, fruit and vegetables can actually be cheaper,” she said.

Miss Murphy added it was not only a benefit to the hip pocket, but could also aid cancer prevention.

To check when Fruit & Veg Sense workshops are running, or to book your spot, phone Clare Murphy on 4923 0718; email clare.murphy@ nswcc.org.au; or go to eatittobeatit.com.au

Put pen to

paper

Little more holds greater sentiment than a handwritten card. This Mother’s Day, why not put pen to paper? Positive psychology coach Debra Close shares seven reasons why you should: 1. Emotional value Writing by hand takes longer than typing an email or text. Because we put more thought into a handwritten card, mum is likely to appreciate it more.

W

e’v

m

e

ov

ed

2. Express your feelings Composing a card or letter allows you to spend more time thinking about exactly what it is you want to say.

3. Creativity Research suggests that handwriting can boost your creativity.

4. A daily reminder We don’t print emails or texts, no matter how heartfelt they may be.

But a handwritten note or card is a tangible reminder of sentiment.

5. Pick-me-up Handwritten letters can last a lifetime. If mum is feeling down, she will have a handwritten card to look back on.

6. Cards are powerful In the digital world, handwritten cards are a rarity, and an act of kindness mum is sure to cherish.

7. It can make you happier Not only will mum be pleasantly surprised, research shows handwriting has benefits for the penman, including reduced stress.

MAY GARDENING TIPS Wow, it’s hard to believe that I am writing hints for May. The weather is certainly still mild to make gardening pleasurable.

Deciduous trees are dropping leaves – a good indicator that the ground is cold underneath. If the fallen leaves are making a carpet under the trees, which is what nature intended, rake them up to either mulch garden beds, or let them mulch under the trees rather than waste nature’s gift.

This is an ideal month to plant new citrus, and spring bulbs should be planted by the end of May. It’s also a good time to divide strawberries and plant new runners. Mulch your beds with compost and cow manure before planting out.

Japonicas are budding, ready for winter flowering. They

should be disbudded now to IN THE GARDEN encourage JUDY SHARPE flowers to open. Pinch back multiple buds to one or two to enable blooms to open.

New-season cyclamen should be given a spell outside at night, bringing it inside during the day into a well-lit spot. Always water under the leaves, not on the crown.

It is time to prepare for new-season roses. Ensure the soil is slightly alkaline by adding poultry manure and a little lime (if needed) well ahead of planting, remembering that fertiliser can burn new roses if added on planting. Remember to mist Maiden Hair ferns with an atomiser each morning.

Family-friendly show set to inspire homeowners

Photo: Peter Stoop

If you’re thinking of starting a project, or are in the middle of one and need advice on how to proceed, then the HIA Building & Renovation Show is well worth a visit.

It brings together a sensational group of exhibitors to showcase the latest trends in renovation, building, home improvements and outdoor living.

The free event will feature live product demonstrations and the ever popular ‘HIA Ask an Expert’ area, where visitors can sit down and ask all their questions with a bathroom renovator, builder, building designer and painter.

Homeowners can plan their next project with this consultation service, bring plans and ideas, and get professional renovation advice from the industry experts.

A family-friendly event, it is also set to provide plenty of children’s entertainment including face painting and a guest appearance by popular mascot Prime Possum.

Housing Industry Association executive director Craig Jennion says there will be something for everyone at the Show.

60

“We hope it will attract many families,” he says.

“With all the diversity of exhibitors and experts available, attendees will be able to compare products and services from an enormous range.

“And, it’ll all be under one roof.”

All attendees will have the opportunity to go into the draw for the major prize - a $15,000 kitchen renovation package courtesy of Valley Kitchens - which will be drawn on the day.

All your food and beverage needs will be covered by a Lions Club barbecue, with all proceeds donated to the charity.

The Show is taking place on Saturday, 13 May at 17 Murray Dwyer Circuit, Mayfield West.

Doors will be open from 10am to 4pm, and entry is free.

Any enquiries, call 4014 2000.

‘No relief’ on rental affordability

N

ew research has highlighted alarming statistics on rental affordability for the Hunter’s most vulnerable.

Research undertaken by Samaritans in April shows that, of 1435 available rental properties in the Newcastle and Lake Macquarie areas, affordable and appropriate rentals are hard to come by for people relying on support benefits.

Samaritans chief executive officer, Peter Gardiner, said people who were most vulnerable due to circumstance, be it age or disability, often found themselves without proper supports and accommodation options, and, as such, fell easily into a cycle of poverty.

“Over the past five years, we have seen no relief for people seeking affordable rental, and especially those supported by pension payments,” he said.

“Since our 2016 research, we have seen a decrease on the number of affordable and

appropriate rentals available in the market, despite there being more properties available to rent.”

The research was undertaken by analysing the number of rental properties advertised during one day in April and assessing affordability (30% of weekly income on rent) and appropriateness (accessibility and number of bedrooms per family unit).

Samaritans Specialist Homelessness services listed housing affordability stress as being one of the top three reasons for people seeking support over the last 12 months.

In the lead-up to the federal budget, Samaritans, along with the wider Anglicare Australia network, is calling for tax reform to improve rental affordability for those who are struggling, along with a commitment to growing social housing supply.

“Governments are elected to care for people, and that means ensuring that everyone has a safe place to sleep at night – a place to call home,” Mr Gardiner added.

PICK OF THE WEEK Mamma Mia!

As Good As It Gets

Friday, SBS, 8.35pm, PG (2008) Adapted from the hit musical and interspersed with hits by iconic pop outfit ABBA, Mamma Mia! tells the story of Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), a young bride-to-be who lives with her mother Donna (Meryl Streep, above) on a Greek island. Sophie’s dream is to have her father give her away – the only trouble is, she doesn’t know who he is. She identifies three men who could be her father – Sam (Pierce Brosnan), Harry (Colin Firth) and Bill (Stellan Skarsgård) – and invites them to the island for the wedding.

Friday

Saturday, 7TWO, 8.30pm, M (1997) The emotion found in the novels of New York writer Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson) does not extend to his personal life: he’s an obsessivecompulsive, devoid of charm, determined to upset every person he meets with the saltiest of insults. Somewhere inside Melvin, there’s an honourable and kind person; lucky for him, three very brave souls – a struggling waitress (Helen Hunt, above), a bed-ridden, gay nextdoor neighbour (Greg Kinnear) and his pet dog Verdell – are compelled to deliver him from evil.

Just Go With It

Sunday, GO!, 7pm, PG (2011) Plastic surgeon Danny (Adam Sandler) has a foolproof method of attracting women but avoiding commitment: always wear a wedding ring. But when the young beauty he falls for, Palmer (Brooklyn Decker), discovers the ring, he quickly finds himself needing a wife so he can assure Palmer he’s about to close the book on divorce proceedings. The scene is set for a comically outrageous farce when Danny convinces his nurse, Katherine (Jennifer Aniston, right), to play the part of his wife as they all go on holiday to Hawaii.

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

CANCER JUN 22 - JUL 22

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

The 10 May Full Moon indicates joint finances may be a concern or there could be an issue with other people over money. But it’s pointless getting into a power struggle. Rather than allowing it to escalate into a full blown war, do your best to defuse the situation.

The Full Moon on the 10th indicates you need to avoid jumping to conclusions when dealing with loved ones. If you haven’t had much time for your friends recently, you’re now keen to redress the balance.

Get out your diary and start booking up lots of social events.

The Full Moon on 10 May indicates that jealousy and possessiveness could cause problems between you and a loved one. One of you is feeling insecure and wants reassurance they aren’t facing any competition. You need to iron out these differences to avoid them worsening.

With Mars in your 6th house, you’ll wish to be more productive at work.

The 10 May Full Moon indicates there may be issues concerning friendships. Perhaps someone might let you down or a friend could be going through a hard time and need a shoulder to lean on.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

LEO JUL 23 – AUG 23

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

The Full Moon on 10 May indicates you need to stand up for yourself when involved in a conversation or discussion and you don’t agree with what someone says. Do your best not to take it personally and don’t allow it to turn into a battle of wills.

Your ambition goes up another notch and you’ll channel increasing amounts of energy into work. The 10 May Full Moon indicates your home and family life will play a huge role in your life. If you’ve had issues with a loved one, they’re going to seem even greater.

The 10 May Full Moon in your own sign indicates that if a loved one is distant with you, try not to brood on what this might mean and then imagine the worst. If someone is being bossy, there could be issues galore if you oppose this person’s authority.

The Full Moon on the 10th falls in your career zone and you will need to be careful of stepping on the toes of either your boss or important colleagues. Your place of work will be full steam ahead and rather stressful on occasions.

Social events see you shine.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

The Full Moon on the 10th indicates a brother, sister, colleague or neighbour is on a moral crusade.

They may even treat you to a bit of finger-wagging. Although you may not agree with what they are saying, there could be a grain of truth in it.

You will take pride in doing things to the best of your ability. The Full Moon on the 10th indicates tempers are frayed, especially when it comes to family matters and loved ones.

You may tire of someone’s funny little ways, which you decide are no laughing matter.

The 10 May Full Moon indicates there might be some tense moments and encounters with others. There could be a dispute with a child over money because they want more than you are prepared to give them. If travel plans are on your agenda, be prepared for delays.

The Full Moon on the 10th is making tempers flare and your patience may be paper-thin. Don’t be reluctant to confide in someone who is older or more influential than you. They will be very helpful and supportive. You will be happy to have some time to yourself and recharge your batteries.

WITH FRANCIS BEVAN

Henry’s approach to things needs to be one of cooperation and receptiveness, rather than aggression. He is learning the lessons of patience and tolerance. Things will come to him if he is willing to wait and to be openminded. Matters of the heart, partnerships and relationships become more important so he needs to take the time to strengthen his current friendship ties and business associations.

By being sensitive, his relationships will grow and become more stable.
