Helen Milton I’m Helen Milton, local mum of two boys under 12. I used my ‘active me time’ when the kids were small to get out in the beautiful Peak District. I got fit and found ‘me’ after the shock of parenthood. Fitness for me is strongly linked to my sense of wellbeing. I am passionate about your ‘active me time’ and about enabling you to enjoy your fitness, tailoring exercise to your needs. Whatever your goal – weight-loss, stress relief, training for an event or simply enjoying the outdoors – I can help you. If you don’t know where to start then get in contact, between my
fitness and cycling qualifications I’m sure I can offer something attractive, different and which concentrates on your needs. I can work with you one-to-one in stunning surroundings to tone and strengthen arms, legs, bums and tums, or in your own home if you prefer. If there are a few of you interested, we can turn it into a group session. I also run salsa-size and fitness classes in Birchover on Tuesday and Friday evenings 6-7pm. The hardest part is picking up the phone – after that we’ll do the rest together. activemetime@uwclub.n et 07957 836151.

Activemetime with Helen Milton for a fresh start to your fitness Discover a new you in 2016! January is traditionally the time when smokers promise to quit the habit. But these days, there’s a better chance of actually keeping that promise. VapeHQ in Matlock has the reason why. Last August, a report by Public Health England, part of the Department of Health, stated that “Ecigarettes are 95% less harmful than normal cigarettes” and that they “help most smokers to quit tobacco altogether.” VapeHQ owners, Scott and Maria, welcomed the news. “We knew that vaping was the tasty alternative to smoking before this announcement,” says Maria, “and now we are officially a serious option for those wanting to quit, or for those who like smoking but want to reduce the toxins in their body.” Vaping is an alternative to smoking that uses flavoured vapour to
replace the usual cigarette chemicals. The e-liquid is vaporised to give the same sensation as smoking a traditional cigarette. You start with a liquid which contains nicotine and then work your way to a liquid which has none. At VapeHQ the e-liquid range caters for all tastes and is UK tested as fit for consumption. From tobacco and fruits, to pink lemonade and key lime cookie, there’s a flavour to suit all tastes. The last words go to Scott. “I urge those who were cautious about vaping to come into our store and just talk to us. We will let you freely try devices and liquids before you buy so that you are completely happy with your purchase. We try to make your first steps into vaping really easy.” VapeHQ is open til 6pm 6 days per week on Firs Parade in Matlock. You can get there by tapping DE4 3AS into your SatNav.
