DO YOU REMEMBER?

Last month:

Do you remember? ere’s a slice of life from old North Sheffield. There aren’t too many people around and those roads look eerily underused... not so much as a horsedrawn buggy! The view will probably be familiar to many Sixer readers so can anyone tell us the story behind this photograph?

H

Last month’s photo challenge was wellreceived and John Quick responded via email

to tell us that the view was of Oughty Bridge railway station. “Note the spelling,� says John. “The camera is facing Sheffield with the brickworks chimney, Oughtibridge Lane bridge and the elevated Oughty Bridge East signal box in the background.�

John suspects the photograph was taken c. 1905 and he may well be right. Joe Castle also spotted the location and tells us that the station was built in 1845.

Many thanks to Barry Couldwell for sending us the image.

Write and send your photos to: Do You Remember?, Sixer, RMC Media, 6 Broadfield Court, Broadfield Business Park, Sheffield, S8 0XF Alternatively, you can email your answer to sixer@rmcmedia.co.uk.

PROMOTION

MORFITT SMITH HAVE TEAMED UP WITH CASH FOR KIDS TO HELP DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN.

Help make it a very merry Christmas etween the tinsel and the turkey, it is easy to forget that the festive period should be a time of giving and of reflection.

One in four children are living in poverty in South Yorkshire and last year’s record breaking Mission Christmas appeal saw Cash for Kids’ deliver gifts to 21,458 children. This is why Morfitt Smith estate agents has teamed up with Hallam FM for the second year to launch the Christmas campaign.

Cash For Kids are encouraging people to buy an extra Christmas gift that can then be distributed to needy children at risk of waking up to nothing on Christmas Day. This year a ‘virtual gift’ can also be donated by texting Hallam to 70808 to donate £5 to the campaign.

Morfitt Smith are the official drop off point for your Christmas gift donations, and with branches in Banner Cross, Hillsborough and Crookes, you’re never far from your local branch. Hundreds more local businesses have also signed up to become drop-off points, and are hoping to make this year the best fundraiser yet.

“Christmas is such a lovely time of year for bringing friends and families together and we all remember the excitement of waking up on Christmas morning to find out what presents

B

we have - but not everyone is as fortunate.”

Says Paul Batty, director of Morfitt Smith “Mission Christmas is such an important and worthy cause to ensure every child has a smile on their face on Christmas morning.

Our mission is to raise as much awareness as possible in support of the appeal.”

Once collected the gifts are distributed to organisations responsible for the care of children, including social services, youth groups, schools and local community groups, and many other organisations across the region.

Back in May you might have seen the strange sight of the Morfitt Smith team going about their everyday business dressed as superheroes; showing their support for Hallam FM’s Superhero Day. It is this ongoing charity work - which includes Hallam Heroes, Happy Street and a charity skydive - completed by area manager Kaye Orwin - in the last year alone – in addition to the fundraising work they do with local pre-schools, that has led to Morfitt Smith being shortlisted in The Negotiator Awards for Community Champion of the Year.

In support of the Mission Christmas appeal, Morfitt Smith are also giving away a weekend theatre trip to London. Including tickets to see Wicked, a trip on the London eye, two nights

in a four star central London hotel (breakfast included) and rail travel.

Everyone who donates a present to Mission Christmas through Morfitt Smith will receive a free #lilsmiffy bear and a ticket number. The winning ticket will be posted on social media and in the new Morfitt Smith e-magazine – for the winner to come forward to receive their prize. Ticket numbers are limited to the first 500 people. One entry per household.

To kick start the campaign on 14 November, the Mission Christmas team will be joined by Santa for the official switch-on of the Christmas grotto at the Banner Cross office. The team will also be taking part in festive fundraising events throughout the Christmas period, including Christmas Jumper Day on 9 December and a coin exchange; exchanging chocolate coins in each office for a donation to Cash For Kids.

Let’s help every child living in South Yorkshire have a very merry Christmas.

Morfitt Smith Crookes, 210 Crookes, Sheffield, S10 1TG Hillsborough, 90 Middlewood Road, Hillsborough, Sheffield, S6 4HA Banner Cross, 912 Ecclesall Road, Banner Cross, Sheffield, S11 8TR

www.morfittsmith.co.uk

If you want to help a disadvantaged child this Christmas, drop your gifts into your local Morfitt Smith branch, until Wednesday 23 December.

Alternatively, you can donate to Mission Christmas online at www.hallamfm.co.uk/mission or text HALLAM to 70808.

LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY: THE MYTH AND THE REALITY. any people have heard of a lasting power of attorney (previously an Enduring Power of Attorney), but they associate it with something you arrange later in life when you “start feeling iffy”.

Here we will investigate some of the myths and realities surrounding mental incapacity and Lasting Power of Attorney.

M

MYTH: Mental incapacity is something that only affects people in later life through illnesses such as Alzheimer’s, so I don’t need to do anything just yet.

REALITY: Accident or illness can strike at any time, often without warning. The consequences of failing to plan can be significant, as outlined in this article. Why leave something so important to chance?

MYTH: If I suffer an accident or illness, my spouse or children will automatically be able to take over the running of my affairs as my next of kin.

REALITY: Your spouse or children have no automatic right to act on your behalf. Without a Lasting Power of Attorney, they will be required to apply to the Court of Protection to be appointed as your Deputy – a long, complex, costly and intrusive process.

MYTH: I can simply add my spouse or children to my bank accounts, as a joint account holder would just carry on as normal in the event of my mental incapacity.

REALITY: Banks are guided by the British Bankers’ Association to freeze both solely and jointly held accounts where one account holder loses mental capacity (they may allow pre-authorised payments).

You need to take advice if…

• You or your spouse/partner don’t yet have a Will.

• You have a Will but it leaves everything to your spouse/partner.

• You don’t have both kinds of Lasting Powers of Attorney set up.

• You or your spouse/partner don’t have a pre-paid Funeral Plan.

• You are divorced or widowed.

• You have children.

MYTH: When creating a Lasting Power of Attorney, it’s best to appoint my spouse and children to act together jointly.

REALITY: Many poorly advised individuals have fallen into this trap.

Appointing family jointly means they must act together in all matters, rendering the Lasting Power of Attorney useless when one of the appointed family can’t act – incapacity or death is not an excuse!

• You are concerned about what will happen and covering the costs if you need long term residential care.

MYTH: If anything happens to me and a decision needs to be made about life sustaining treatment, the doctor will automatically follow the wishes of my next of kin.

REALITY: Only through a Lasting Power of Attorney can you give the people you trust the right to make choices about your health and welfare, including the ability to refuse life-sustaining treatment if you wish.

A Lasting Power of Attorney is often likened to an insurance policy – you hope you’ll never need it, but your family will be very grateful for your foresight if you do. It’s the only way to have your say about who you trust to manage your affairs and make things as simple as possible for your loved ones.

ENTERTAINING

Chris Walker and his partner Sharron invite you for dinner… black tie is optional!

How to throw the perfect dinner party IN HIS DAY JOB HE PLAYS A SOAP OPERA COP, BUT OFF-SCREEN HE LOVES TO PLAY THE ATTENTIVE HOST. ACTOR AND CELEBRITY MASTERCHEF CONTESTANT CHRIS WALKER REVEALS HIS TOP TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL DINNER PARTY TO MOLLY McGREEVY

24 Sixer | www.sheffieldvibe.com

ou may know Chris Walker as Rob Hollins, a policeman in BBC daytime soap Doctors, but when he isn’t donning his uniform in front of the cameras, Chris loves to entertain at home, throwing dinner parties for his friends and family.

Chris’s love for food led him to compete in Celebrity Masterchef, where he reached the semi-finals, creating wonderful dishes for judges Greg Wallace and John Torode, but his passion for cooking began when he left the family home in Yorkshire and moved to London.

“Cooking wasn’t that important to me until I left home, then I started making standard things like a Bolognese or a chilli and I became fascinated,” said Chris.

Fuelled by his new found love for food, Chris started collecting cookbooks and now has a couple of hundred at home, covering every cuisine imaginable. He would often prepare meals for fellow actors whilst touring the UK, and this soon grew into hosting dinner parties.

Y

@SixerRMC

Chris’s prowess in the kitchen didn’t go unnoticed, and a friend at The Regent Hotel, Doncaster, asked him to host gourmet nights on a Friday, each one themed round a different cuisine.

“I cooked nine-course gourmet meals for up to 44 people, I wanted to prove to myself by charging people money. When you invite people round to your house they’re not going to tell you the food is rubbish, because that would be rude. But people will when they have to pay for it, I charged quite a lot of money and people kept coming back again and again, so that was great.”

For Chris, food is about bringing people together around the table. He said: “These days things have changed, there’s so much food you can microwave and so many takeaways available. When I was a lad people sat round the table and shared family times, and that is what is important to me, to create that ambience.”

With so much entertaining experience, Chris shared his tips and tricks for throwing a wonderful dinner party.

ENTERTAINING

Being a good host

On Chris’s menu

“The thing about dinner parties is that the host has to be there, if the host is in the kitchen all the time, it ruins the evening for them and their guests. A host should get a chance to sit round the table and talk, because that’s what food is all about. That’s one of the most important things about food, it should bring people together.

It’s all about preparation at a dinner party, that’s the real secret. You need a starter that is made up, a main course that can be left, and a pre-made dessert, whether that be hot or cold. I recommend using your slow cooker, make something two days before and it’ll improve in the fridge.

On the day itself, you’re presenting food rather than cooking it – that’s the key to it all.

You don’t want to be serving fillet steak to eight people when you have to cook it to order, that’s restaurant stuff. That doesn’t make for a conducive dinner party.”

ON ARRIVAL “You want some nibbles out already, something that people can get stuck into straight away like olives, especially if you’re inviting people who haven’t met before. Make sure there’s a drink waiting for them, either a cocktail or a glass of bubbles.”

TO START “A smoked mackerel pate works very well.

You can buy the mackerel already smoked and mix it through with some crème fraiche and some capers. Stir through some sultanas soaked with wine and serve that with some salad, some melba toast, butter and you’re done.”

MAIN “Try ox cheek, it’s just amazing, it’s superb.

Cook it for six to eight hours in the slow cooker and it’ll be the best beef you’ve ever tasted. I do it a day or two before, put a bottle of wine in there, put carrots in huge and whole and leave them to cook.

I would brown the beef first, cut it into big pieces, and then add red wine, beef stock and huge vegetables, also add onions and thicken it later using either cornflour or a mixture of butter and plain flour in a paste.”

Where to source ingredients “Use your local market. Of course we all use supermarkets, but if you get a good relationship with your butcher and your fishmonger they’ll help you, they’ll hang meat for you longer than a supermarket will, they’ll give you special cuts, they’ll look after you.”

Drinks “Always team drinks and wine. The first thing is not to be scared of wine, it’s there to be enjoyed. No one should be snobbish about wine, in this day and age you can get some great wines for a really good price. You can get a lovely bottle of wine for five or six quid, but if you’re having a dinner party and want to make it a bit special, pay a bit more and it’s so much better.

Matching wine to food is great fun. You want to start with a white wine or a sparkling wine, or you can do cocktails, then move onto red, then port and brandy.

A good idea for dinner parties is to choose a cocktail and make it in a punchbowl, at the moment I’m loving pornstar martinis. Make it up in a nice big bowl, don’t put ice in it, instead fill empty spirit bottles ¾ full with water and freeze them. That keeps the cocktail cold and doesn’t dilute it. Get a ladle and everyone can serve themselves.”

Music and entertainment “I would always have a little bit of

CHEESEBOARD “Cheese goes on the table next. By bringing out some cheese and biscuits you’re giving yourself chance to nip back into the kitchen and prepare dessert, it buys you time.”

DESSERT “Apple and blackberry crumble with custard is a good hot option, or prepare a cold dessert the day before.”

background music, like my food I like everything. I love classical, I love jazz, I love heavy rock, you want to be putting on something a bit background.

If you’re serving at Christmas, obviously get some carols and some Bublé on, or a bit of Nat King Cole. It depends how you’re theming your dinner party, during the World Cup and other football tournaments I choose a theme based on a team playing. For example you might do Brazilian food and choose your music accordingly.”

Good food, good wine and good company – the ingredients for a successful dinner party

For a more informal dinner party “There are lots of great ideas to make a dinner party less formal. One thing you can do is get a leg of lamb and cook it until it falls apart and then shred that on the table.

Then have lots of wraps and different ingredients so people can make their own wraps; you can do that with beef and pork as well.

If you’re going to do South East Asian or Chinese food get all the ingredients in bowls in front of everyone with part-cooked veg and meat, then serve a lovely homemade stock in teapots on the table so guests can pour their own red hot stock into their bowl and everything becomes warm again, usually served with noodles. You could do the same with Mexican. It’s nice to put big bowls of food on the table and let people help themselves, that breaks the ice as well.”

One final tip?

“Go and read up on what you’re going to do.

Don’t be afraid of food, don’t ever apologise for your food in front of your guests and be confident. Don’t poison anyone though, you don’t want your guests being ill.”

BRADFIELD BREWERY

SUCCESS BUILT ON BEER THE REMARKABLE STORY OF HOW THE GILL FAMILY’S BRADFIELD BREWERY GREW FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS ON THE KITCHEN TABLE IS TOLD IN A NEW BOOK PUBLISHED BY RMC MEDIA. hey’re the farmers who swapped pints of milk for pints of beer.

But since establishing Bradfield Brewery over ten years ago, the Gill family have never shared their full story in their own words – until now.

A new book tells that remarkable tale in style: the highs, the lows – and the many beers brewed along the way.

Published by RMC Media, ‘Mine’s A Pint: The Story of Bradfield Brewery’ is a fitting tribute to a decade of success. From the family’s early days as dairy farmers, to the decision to set up the brewery, to the present day with Bradfield beers stocked in pubs across the country, it’s quite a read.

And to make it a proper celebration, the book also features mouthwatering recipes from some longtime friends of the brewery:

BRADFIELD BREWERY

Whitby’s famous Magpie Café. The seafood dishes featured marry perfectly with a pint of Bradfield Beer; in some cases – such as the beer-battered fish and chips, or the rump, stout and oyster pie – they’re even made with it.

Set in the beautiful village of Bradfield, Watt House Farm was always an unlikely setting for a brewery. But when milk prices began to take a tumble at the turn of the millennium, John and Susan Gill knew something needed to be done.

The idea to set up an onsite brewery came from the Gills’ son Richard, a keen homebrewer who saw a way to turn his hobby into a business opportunity for the family. Susan was just happy that the brewing equipment would be set up somewhere other than her kitchen table, where Richard’s homebrew kits had been – the steam had made her kitchen wallpaper peel away!

Having decided to take the plunge, the Gills faced a number of obstacles in setting up their new venture – securing funding, finding equipment. Most heartbreaking of all was the decision, a few months into operation of the brewery, to sell their dairy cows. For a family who had farmed all their lives, it was a tough choice to make.

But with the closing of one chapter came the start of a brand new one – and since then, Bradfield Brewery has gone from strength to strength. ‘Mine’s A Pint’ details some of the Gill’s greatest triumphs: the opening of their pub, the Nags Head; joining in the celebrations as the Tour de France passed through Yorkshire in 2014; and the runaway success of Farmers Blonde, one of Sheffield’s best-selling beers, and Belgian Blue, their Christmas ale famed across the region for its unique blue head.

As well as the peaks and troughs, there have been laughs along the way. The book is filled with funny stories and anecdotes from the Gills’ ten years as brewers – like the time Susan and daughter Lisa delivered some casks to a wedding… and unwittingly sprayed the groomsmen with beer!

Written by RMC’s Adam Kay, ‘Mine’s A Pint’ is illustrated with stunning images from renowned photographer Tim Green. With a superb eye for detail, Tim’s shots bring Bradfield Brewery and its picturesque surroundings to life – and make those recipes look good enough to eat.

All in all, it’s a heart-warming story from a local family done good. To read it in all its glory, pick up a copy of your own. And if you feel like pouring yourself a pint as you flick through the pages, a little brewery in Bradfield would be happy to help…

‘Mine’s A Pint: The Story of Bradfield Brewery’ (ISBN: 978-1-907998-26-3) is available from December 2016 from Bradfield Brewery (release date TBC) – keep an eye on www.bradfieldbrewery.com for more details. @SixerRMC

THE SHEFFIELD CHRISTMAS TREE COMPANY HAS THOUSANDS OF TREES TO CHOOSE FROM… JUST GO AND PICK YOUR OWN FRESH FROM THE PLANTATION. welve years ago at Cow Gap Farm, Dungworth, near Stannington, David Hallam and his son Travis decided to plant 50 Christmas trees... fast-forward to 2016 and they have over 20,000 trees growing and this year sees the grand opening of The Sheffield Christmas Tree (PYO) Company.

You are invited to visit the farm from midNovember onwards right up to Christmas Eve to visit the real life reindeer, browse in the craft and Christmas gift shop, enjoy coffee and cake in the log cabin and maybe even buy a Christmas tree.

Farmer David says: “We like to think that nobody else in Sheffield has got a 'pick your own' living Christmas tree plantation. There is something very exciting, especially for the children, looking and picking out their very own tree.”

With five different varieties in loads of different sizes and with cut or potted trees, there's a tree for everyone.

You can wander around the four fields of trees, pick your favourite and then tag up your very own personal tree. If you want to take it there and then, they’ll cut it down for you, net it and it's yours... you won't get a fresher Christmas tree than that anywhere.

If you don't want to take it there and then, simply book a delivery date and they will deliver direct to your door.”

Son Travis added: “We’ve loads of fun things for the kids to do, a treasure hunt though the trees, a photo opportunity with

T

two real reindeer, fun and games and, of course, a Christmas bouncy castle.

“We are open from Saturday 19 November up to Christmas Eve and all Sixer readers will have ten per cent off any tree when they quote ‘Sixer Christmas Offer’.

Also, the first five customers through the door on opening day who buy a cut tree will receive a free potted Christmas Tree.”

Every tree sold this year will result in a donation to Sheffield Hospitals Charity – and if you see a nine-foot-high Christmas tree man running the Percy Pud road race on December 4, give Travis a cheer or maybe sponsor him at his ‘just giving’ page.

So why not change your Christmas routine and visit the farm? Dave and Travis guarantee a cheerful welcome, and they are sure you will be back next year.

It’s a berry nice pint!

IT MUST BE CHRISTMAS, BRADFIELD BREWERY’S BELGIAN BLUE IS BACK AGAIN. t was in 2006 that beer lovers first supped a pint of Belgian Blue. Those who tried the seasonal beer soon got a taste for its berry overtones and slight blue tint to the head, and ten years later Bradfield Brewery’s Christmas ale has become a festive phenomenon, selling 350,000 pints in 2015.

“People look forward to it coming out, they associate it with Christmas,” said brewery owner John Gill. “It’s a phenomenon that’s built up year on year, each year it has been getting more popular.”

John and his family began brewing beer at Watt House Farm in 2005, when plummeting milk prices forced the dairy farmers to diversify.

The cow shed was transformed into a brewery and soon Belgian Blue became an essential part of Bradfield’s Christmas celebrations.

“Belgian Blue has been around since the beginning, but people don’t often realise that,” said John. “One of the first pubs I remember having a pint of Blue in was the Robin Hood at Stannington, which has been converted into housing now.”

Today, Belgian Blue travels much further than Stannington, with requests for the beer coming in from across the UK and Ireland.

A fan in Belfast has requested Blue for their festivities, and one bottle even made it all the way to Jamaica, to celebrate Christmas in sunnier climates.

But Belgian Blue’s journey to the Christmas dinner table starts much closer to home, when the first lorry loads of the beer’s closely guarded, secret ingredients arrive at Watt House Farm in October. From then it takes around ten

I

days to create the first pints, with the process to create bottles of Blue taking slightly longer.

October is the busiest month for brewing at Bradfield, with around 130,000 pints brewed each week. In one particular week Bradfield Brewery produced 520 brewers barrels of beer – around 150,000 pints.

By late October, Belgian Blue is ready for launch, and the first pint is pulled in the Nags Head Inn, the brewery’s own pub, just a mile away from where Blue is brewed. For the first time last year, the beer was launched at a specific time, 4pm. By the time the chimes struck, beer lovers from near and far had arrived for their first taste of the Christmas.

“We were surprised how many people turned up,” said John. “The pub was completely full, some people had even taken the next day off work.”

To celebrate this year’s launch, Bradfield Brewery asked their Facebook fans how many pints of Belgian Brew were poured on that launch night in 2015 in the Nags. The exact number was 560, between 4pm and 11pm, which works out at more than a pint a minute.

For those who can’t make it to the Nags Head, Belgian Blue is available on draft at pubs across Sheffield and further afield. It is also available in 500ml bottles and 5 litre mini kegs from the brewery’s onsite shop and other shops nationwide.

Also available from the brewery shop is a great range of merchandise, clothing and gifts.

A YEAR OF SUCCESS GREAT FOOD, LIVE MUSIC AND A CAMRA ACCOLADE – THE FUTURE’S LOOKING BRIGHT FOR THE HILLSBOROUGH HOTEL. n the twelve months since returning to the Hillsborough Hotel (formally the Top Wellington) Brigitte and Tom Delaney, together with their team, are taking giant strides to put this community pub back on the map, with a selection of real ales, home cooked food and six en-suite letting rooms.

At the Hillsborough you will always find seven real ales. These include Mojo (3.6 per cent), our house pale ale from Tapped Brewery, Sheffield, and Acorn Barnsley Bitter (3.8 per cent), for £2.60 a pint. Our other ales are sourced locally and from around the UK. We have a selection of draught lagers, including Carling and Stella Artois, and Stowford Press Cider, as well as a selection of bottled beers and ciders. Our hard work over the year has paid off, as we recently received the Sheffield Camra Pub of the Month award for October in recognition of the quality and service our staff have provided to our customers.

We hold two to three beer festivals a year and we hold regular tasting nights, where you can join us to try the latest gins, whiskey, rums, port and sherry, accompanied by some tasty treats.

Tom and chef Mandy Davis have put together a selection of pub classics and new dishes with a modern twist, which is available Tuesday to Friday, 12 - 8.30 pm, and Saturday 12-7.30pm. We have a daily specials board, offering meals for only£5, available 12-6pm Tuesday to Saturday. On Sundays 12-4pm, we

Eric Law has over 30 years’ experience

Simple scheme succeeds ERIC LAW KNEW JUST HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF THE SPACE AVAILABLE TO COMPLETELY MODERNISE THE BONNER’S BATHROOM. BY RACHEL MARTIN. hen Claire and Graham Bonner considered modernising their bathroom, they turned to Eric Law and his team at Visual Bathrooms – and were thrilled with the results.

“My husband and I had been considering modernising our bathroom for some time and had seen Visual Bathrooms in Sixer magazine and passed by the showroom often; they’re based on Holme Lane and we live locally in Stannington.

“We were looking for a complete design and fitting service and after researching a number of bathroom suppliers we decided to call into the showroom, which was notably well presented.

“We found Eric and his team to be extremely accommodating and friendly – he really knew what he was talking about and seemed very trustworthy – and the team seemed to be very passionate about what they do.

“We gave Eric a detailed list of requirements; we wanted a simple scheme that

W

wouldn’t date and a separate bath and shower and, as our bathroom is quite small, we arranged for him to come round and asses the space. When it came to choosing the products, he listened to our ideas and offered suggestions on how it would work and after some deliberation he advised us on the items and brands that would fit our brief and budget.

“Eric invited us to come back to the showroom where he had produced a computer generated mock-up of our design.

He suggested a shower and cubicle fitting to our brief and we chose other items from the showroom. After discussing timescales (he advised fitting would take a maximum of two weeks) and receiving a full, detailed quote, we were eager to go ahead.

“In addition to the bath and shower we went for full tiling and new spotlights, and before the fitting Eric dropped a selection of tile samples round for us to choose from.

“The fitters were efficient and tidy, and as we went away for the first week of work, Eric

@SixerRMC

kept in touch to let us know what was happening. When we returned home they were very considerate of our dog, which we appreciated, and went above and beyond to ensure he was looked after while we were out.

“In addition to this, my husband Graham is very tall, so they took care in ensuring the shower and cabinet were fitted at a suitable height, and they even finished a day early, which was a bonus.

“All in all we are very happy with the finished result and from both a professional and personal perspective we have been very impressed with Visual Bathrooms and would definitely recommended Eric and the team.”

To discover how Visual Bathrooms can transform your bathroom, contact Eric on 0114 233 3032 or pop into the showroom on Holme Lane.

Care for the community LOCAL BUSINESSES PROVIDING CARE AND TREATMENTS. BY PHOEBE SEYMOUR.

Cryotherapy UK Go under the ice, not the knife. Cryotherapy is the local or general use of low temperatures in medical therapy. It is used to treat a variety of benign and malignant tissue damage.

Cryotherapy involves applying an ice-cold vapour, which reaches -160 degrees via a liquid nitrogen tank.

Professionally-trained therapists massage the treated area to keep skin warm during the treatment. Because of its ability to reduce blood flow and pain to areas of the body, it is a great choice for sprains, dislocations, bruising and fractures.

Once the skin warms up, vessels open wider and the lymphatic system floods through delivering all the healing proteins, collagen and anti-oxidants your skin needs.

This means it is also great for beauty therapies including facial lifts, skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, cellulite reduction and acne reduction, as well as body sculpting.

So whether you have a sports injury or skin condition, visit Cryotherapy UK’s new centre at SIV’s Hillsborough Leisure Centre.

Decorated Christmas trees in Brightholmlee Methodist Church

Rev. Katie Leonowicz

A tree-mendous effort CHARITY FESTIVAL BRINGS THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS… 29 TIMES OVER.

owering high, decorated with gorgeous ornaments and covered in lights that twinkle like stars - gazing at a Christmas tree can be a magical experience. So just imagine how spectacular it would be to walk into a room full of them.

From Thursday 8 to Saturday 10 December, Brightholmlee Methodist Church in Wharncliffe Side will house 29 decorated Christmas trees. This will be the church’s third Christmas Tree Festival, at which local businesses, groups and individuals are invited to sponsor trees to raise money for charity.

“The number of sponsors and visitors at last year’s event exceeded our best expectations,” says event organiser, Gill Evans.

“We were so pleased to be told by everyone that it had that ‘wow factor’.”

Gill was first inspired to put on the event after going on a trip to Cheshire. She stumbled upon a church holding their own Christmas tree festival in aid of Cancer Research and was so impressed, she decided to introduce the idea to Brightholmlee Methodist Church, where she has helped out for the past 25 years.

In its first year, the event raised £1,000, in its second year, it raised around £2,000 for the Friends of Sheffield Children's Hospital, and it is hoped that this year’s event will raise

T

even more.

As well as the Friends of Sheffield Children's Hospital, this year the church are adding the Alzheimer’s Society and Parkinson’s UK to their list of beneficiaries.

Each sponsor makes a donation and either decorates their tree, or asks helpers at the church to decorate the tree for them.

Local organisations that support the festival include Wharncliffe Side School, Wharncliffe Side Brownies and Rainbows, Wharncliffe Side Village Hall, Wharncliffe Side’s Women’s Institute, mother and toddler group Bright Young Things and a Stocksbridge health walks group, whilst businesses include ACB Cleaning, Andrew Singleton (painter and decorator), Hilton Electrical, Rosewood Loft Creations and The Wharncliffe Arms, as well as a number of local individuals.

Last year, 13 shops, businesses and individuals also donated some fantastic prizes for the raffle including a food hamper and shopping vouchers. This year, Fox Valley has joined in by donating a £25 makeover voucher for new boutique store, Sandersons.

The event has even had support from DIY chain store B&Q. When Jill visited the store on Penistone Road and asked for 25 trees for the first event back in 2014, they offered Jill a 20 per cent discount.

@SixerRMC

“We started this event to bring the community together at Christmas time and it seems to have worked,” adds Gill. “We’ve been well-supported by locals, as well as people who have visited from as far away as Barnsley.

“None of this would have been possible without the support of Rev. Katie Leonowicz, my husband Gordon and the help of our coorganisers Wendy and Roy Singleton. We create a welcoming environment for our visitors and are looking forward to another very special event this year.”

Brightholmlee Methodist Church will be opening its doors for the Christmas Tree Festival from Thursday 8 to Saturday 10 December, from 3pm to 7pm. Admission to the event is free – all the church asks is that visitors make a donation or enter the raffle for a chance to win some fantastic prizes. Refreshments will also be available.

This will be followed by a carol service on Sunday 11 December.

If you would like to sponsor a tree or get involved in this event, contact Gill on 0114 286 2647, on her mobile 07960 638 490 or email gilladams47@gmail.com.

Vital help of charity support nurse highlighted by heart failure mum A Derbyshire woman who suffered heart failure while pregnant has hailed a Sheffield Hospitals Charity-funded nurse who helped her bond with her baby during her lifesaving care.

Ruth Clout, aged 39, was admitted to the Jessop Wing Hospital at 33 weeks pregnant as a precaution, after suffering coughing and breathlessness. But, after doctors diagnosed Ruth’s heart condition, baby William had to be delivered early. It was thanks to the help of family support nurse Sandra Brown that Ruth and her family found a way to cope with their traumatic ordeal.

“Sandra gave us information about the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). She also talked about the process after the delivery.” said Ruth.

“The booklets she gave us helped us to explain to our four-year-old daughter Emily that our baby was going to be coming early, which made things less scary for her. I had to have a general anaesthetic during the delivery, but Sandra was there and took photos for us. She spent vital time with Daniel and my parents on the day of delivery and was incredibly supportive to them all.

“I was very worried and upset about being separated from my baby at birth and not bonding. But after I was woken from the anaesthetic, the neonatal transfer team and Sandra had brought William to see me on the ward in cardiac intensive care.”

Ruth stayed in hospital for two weeks and during this period Sandra ensured she saw William on a daily basis, so that she did not miss out on his early development.

Sandra is funded by Sheffield Hospitals Charity and helps parents deal with their baby’s stressful journey through the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit by providing information, emotional support and practical advice.

To make a donation to support families in the Jessop Wing, visit www.sheffieldhospitalscharity.org.uk/jessopsappeal or text JESSOPS1 to 70660 to donate £3 to support babies and their families.

Loxley Silver Band has been awarded funding by the PRS for Music Foundation Open Fund.

The award will allow the band to commission, perform and record up to four unique compositions by the internationally renowned artist Barry Gilbey. This exciting project will create new music which crosses genres from brass band into popular music.

The commissions will be performed live at a world premiere in Sheffield and professionally recorded by the band Stuart Young, the band’s secretary, said: “We are absolutely ecstatic and honoured that we’ve been offered this award from the PRS for Music Foundation amongst so many other very prestigious names. It will allow us to push forward in our goal to expand the scope of the modern brass band and reach new audiences.”

Youngsters in rowing competition Inspired by Rio 2016, local children have participated in an inter-school rowing competition.

For some pupils this was the first time they had tried the sport, but the event – organised by the Link School Sport partnership – was enjoyed by all.

There was an amazing atmosphere during the day, with Y6 pupils cheering their teams on. Pupils from Stocksbridge Junior School showed particular talent in rowing and won a number of medals. Equally as impressive were the pupils from Wharncliffe Side Primary School, who showed determination, effort and excellent sportsmanship.

Bears, bears everywhere!

Children in Class 1 at Wharncliffe Side Primary School started the school year in style with a teddy bears picnic.

The young children organised the picnic, made shopping lists and designed invitations for parents to join them.

The event linked in with their topic for the term, learning all about different types of bears and their habitats around the world. They have also learnt about the history of bears and how they have become a much-loved childhood toy.

Have a very 007 Christmas!

Welcome to my office – views from the roofs of Sheffield S6

Annual harvest charity auction a huge hit

Simon Slater of Slater’s Aerial Services has a different ‘office view’ to most of us – a rooftop vista of Sheffield. But can you guess exactly where in S6 he was when he took this photograph? To find out, follow @SlatersAerials and @SixerRMC on Twitter – the answer will be revealed at the end of each month.

Congratulations to those of you who guessed where Simon was in last month’s pictures - Middlewood Road and Dungworth Green.

RIES

This years’ annual harvest auction and Halloween festival at The Nags Head raised a staggering £3,600 for Sheffield’s Weston Park Cancer Charity.

The event, which was supported by Bradfield Brewery and featured performances from Bolsterstone Male Voice Choir, saw local renowned auctioneer, Steven Helliwell, kindly donating his services for the evening and young auctioneer, Kyle Hawksworth, getting in on the act.

Lucky bidders scooped up treasures and treats, including a giant pumpkin which sold for £85. A giant pork pie was scooped for £40 and a jar of pickled onions made a whopping £60.

There is nothing more we enjoy than being warm in winter, unfortunately for us and our pets - so do fleas. As we turn on the heating or sit by a fire the flea is busy reproducing. Cats and dogs in our warm houses provide the ideal breeding environment, infestation is rapid and very quickly our pets are suffering. The fleas will continue to reproduce in carpets and bedding.

Felt Roofing

GRP Roofing A fibreglass roof or GRP Roofing (glass reinforced plastic) will last for at least 30 years.

Fibreglass matting is combined with layers of flexi resin to create a hard and durable, watertight laminate surface. A final top coat is available in a choice of colours with the option of a non-slip surface â&#x20AC;&#x201C; ideal for walk ways.

Rubber Roofing A rubber roof or EPDM (ethylene propylene diene terpolymer) can be often installed in one complete layer without any joins. It is extremely light weight, elastic and tough. Rubber roofs are adhered to a wooden substrate. A well installed rubber roof can be a very good option.

Typically applied in a 3 layer system (layers of felt are melt welded together). A choice of colours and finishes are available. Typical lifespan is 20 years with excellent expansion and contraction properties.

Wild and wonderful JOHN MURPHY HITS IRELAND’S WILD ATLANTIC WAY AND FINDS WARM HOSPITALITY, FANTASTIC FOOD AND, BEST OF ALL, GREAT GOLF. “

er eyes, they shone like diamonds …”

Words from a famous Dubliners’ song but an apt description of the Lady Captain who arrived to greet our visiting party at Killorglin Golf Club in Kerry.

It may not be the best course in the South West of Ireland or the most famous but in terms of hospitality, spirit and warmth it has few rivals. Anne Kenny Foley was justifiably brimming with pride when she met us and introduced us to the club. The civility extended to a serenade over lunch, performed by the chef on accordion and her daughter on vocals. A shared pint of the “Black Stuff ” with club members merely enhanced the atmosphere of mirth and merriment. Only in Ireland…

Anne is justifiably proud of her course. The

clubhouse, with its panoramic windows, provides stunning views across the country with the course framed on one side by the Macgillicuddy Reeks Range (including Carrauntouhill, Ireland’s highest mountain) and Dingle Bay and the Slieve Mish mountains beyond.

The course, costing a mere 25 euros a round, is only 20 minutes from Killarney, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Ireland. It lies at the heart of Killarney National Park with its lakes and mountains providing the perfect location for walking, cycling, boating, fishing and of course golf.

From our base, the rather grand and comfortable Hotel Arbutus in the heart of the town, we enjoyed rounds at three other courses but Killarney can also be used as a

starting point to enjoy the rugged and beautiful Wild Atlantic Way. The Wild Atlantic Way is a 1,500 mile driving route along the west coast of Ireland passing through nine counties and three provinces, stretching from County Donegal’s Inishowen peninsula in the north to what is commonly known as Ireland’s culinary capital in the south, Kinsale.

A tourist going south from Killarney can head for Skibbereen, firstly navigating the beautiful Ring of Kerry, the Iveragh peninsula. Beauty and heritage are fused in this part of the world. On the one hand there is the beautiful Rossbeigh beach – one of Europe’s finest – and on the other hand there is the heritage of Derrynane House – former home to Daniel O’Connell, “The Liberator”.

Further south the Wild Atlantic Way will

“There is a feeling at both north and south extremes of the Wild Atlantic Way that you are on the edge of the world.” take you through stunning scenery as you head to Dursey Sound, Castletownbere Harbour and the popular Glengarriff. Don’t forget to take in the verdant gardens on Garnish Island and enjoy the views at Bantry Bay. There is a feeling at both north and south extremes of the Wild Atlantic Way that you are on the edge of the world. Get to Baltimore Harbour, outside Skibbereen, and you realise there is nothing but water between you and the next piece of land – America. The countryside is enchanting with loughs running into the sea and walking trails around and on top of rugged coastal promontories.

A long holiday or a number of trips would be needed to appreciate the Wild Atlantic Way in all its glory as there so many highlights. At the north there is the magical district of Connemara where turquoise, crystal clear water laps unspoilt, white sand beaches and ancient thatched, cottages dot the horizon.

Go south on the route from Connemara and take in the party city of Galway, the stunning Cliffs of Moher and the Dingle Peninsula, famed for its clifftop views of the crashing Atlantic waves below. Be brave and drive the Conor Pass. If you’re lucky you may

catch sight of Dingle’s famed aquatic visitor, Fungi, the Dolphin.

This part of Ireland is also home to some of the country’s finest restaurants, which is no surprise given the quality and volume of local produce. Rozzers restaurant at Killeen House Hotel in Killarney is a perfect example: fine local food supported by a great atmosphere.

Ashes Restaurant in Dingle offers the same: the turbot I sampled was exceptional.

The Wild Atlantic Way must also be unique in being home to some of the best golf courses in the world in such a condensed strip of land. It features marquee courses such as Ballybunion, Waterville, Tralee and Lahinch alongside the likes of Ballyliffin, Connemara, Dooks and The Old Head.

We were fortunate to play three other courses in this area. The drive on the Atlantic Way to Dingle Golf Links (Ceann Sibeal) is spectacular as you traverse narrow lanes to reach the very tip of the Dingle Peninsula.

The course is equally spectacular as you attempt to define holes hewed out of dunes and long wispy grass. Beaufort is a more traditional inland parkland course with wellmaintained fairways and greens while Killarney Golf and Fishing Club is the epitome of the imposing and traditional championship venue. @SixerRMC

A funeral can be conducted with dignity, respect and love without having to spend a fortune, and their funerals are testament to this.

Their straight-to-crematorium service currently stands at £1,660 and can be attended by close family members. There is no service but this allows mourners to say goodbye in a way that best suits them.

This service will also be booked at the family’s convenience. Just because there is no service does not mean that the family’s wishes should not be honoured at a time which best suits them.

I Did It My Way’s basic service is priced from £2,150 (cremation only), with no other

costs to pay. A colourful coffin depicting the client’s life, or something special about them, with the hearse and a limousine, is fullyinclusive from £2,900 (cremation only). The price remains the same for a wicker coffin, which also prove to be very popular.

The pre-payment business is increasing daily; an increasing number of people are

planning ahead as death and dying are no longer regarded as taboo. Peace of mind for families at such a difficult time appears to be made much easier when their loved one has planned ahead. There are no worries with a prepaid funeral, and the price quoted now is what you will pay, regardless of the date it is needed.

Steve and the team pride themselves on the level of service they offer, they believe in acting in their clients’ best interests at all times.

THE HOME OF QUALITY FROM STUNNING HAND-CRAFTED KITCHENS TO BESPOKE FURNITURE, DAVID J MARTIN’S ATTENTION TO DETAIL PRODUCES BEAUTIFUL RESULTS. n these days of mass produced furniture it seems almost impossible to find beautiful bespoke, handmade pieces, whether that be for your kitchen, bedroom, study or lounge. At David J Martin customers are welcomed into the firm’s on-site workshop, to see their furniture come to life.

“People often don’t believe that the workshop is here, under the showroom” said owner David Martin. “Then we bring them downstairs and they’re blown away.”

There’s a team of eight, highly trained carpenters working on kitchen cabinets and islands, bedroom furniture, desks and study furniture, each one made unique to order.

David himself is a carpenter by trade, training for years before completing a degree in the subject. He ensures his staff are trained to the highest standard, resulting in the finest quality products. Everything at David J Martin happens under one roof, so David himself can check the quality and finish of each product at every stage of the process.

“Our attention to detail is second to none and this makes us stand out from the crowd,” said David. “We are not held to ransom by mass-produced products as we make everything from scratch – even down to

making our own cutters for producing mouldings.”

This means you can add to your kitchen in years to come and the company will still be able to match the designs.

In the David J Martin showroom, a stunning range of kitchens is on display, but the company also produces bespoke furniture for every room in the house. For the bedroom, the company builds beautiful wardrobes, and other unique storage solutions for difficult spaces. For the study, David’s team of carpenters can build desks and media spaces.

@SixerRMC

After an initial customer consultation, when David will discuss budgets and offer expert design advice, the cabinetmakers work from plans drawn by David and create bespoke furniture, which can be sprayed to high gloss or satin finishes using durable Two Pac paint.

With larger companies, you will often see doors advertised as having a ‘high-gloss finish’. This means that they are vinylwrapped and, although this does produce a shiny look, it means that you will be able to see the joins.

David J Martin’s professional sprayer can apply any colour you wish in their paintspraying booth, giving a modern finish with no joins. That means water cannot seep in and cause peeling – something that can happen with vinyl-wrapped doors. Everything is done in-house, which enables David to guarantee high quality at every stage.

For those customers undertaking full refurbishment of their home, David J Martin can provide a one-stop shop for structural, plumbing and electricity work, as well as building furniture.

David said: “We run a building company alongside our bespoke joinery company, so customers are not waiting for plumbers, electricians and so on. We can take care of

everything and ensure that the project is completed to the highest standard.”

For David it’s all about creating a high quality customer experience, whether the job be big or small. One call to David J Martin could result in a stunning new extension, complete with kitchen, plumbing and electricity – David only employs the best tradesmen.

In the company’s 36 years of trading, David J Martin has built a superb reputation for customer satisfaction. The company is highly

regarded for their customer and after-sales service, ensuring that every customer is a happy one and fixing any problems with their furniture, whether that be two weeks or ten years down the line.
