WEDDINGS

When romance comes alive...

IT’S THE MOST MAGICAL TIME – AND PERFECT FOR CELEBRATING YOUR BIG DAY. HANNAH SANDERS LOOKS AT HOW YOU CAN MAKE YOUR WINTER WEDDING ONE TO REMEMBER. lthough many couples choose to say ‘I do’ in the spring and summer months, there is something utterly magical about a winter wedding.

Often described as the most romantic season, winter weddings are becoming increasingly popular, with shimmering snowflakes (if you’re lucky!), champagne-hues and twinkling lights adorning the mantles, not to mention a beautiful backdrop for memorable photography.

So, if you’ve always wanted to have a winter wonderland fairytale wedding, here are some ideas to help you embrace the cold and create the perfect day.

A

WEDDINGS

Colour schemes Avoid the classic red and greens and opt for a silver, white and baby blue theme.

Why not decorate in rich, warm tones of berry red, burgundy or gold or add extra wintery romance with lots of natural greenery. Textures are also important in the colder months, so consider using velvets or satins.

CAKE Winter wedding cakes are not only about style and sophistication, but there needs to be an element of warmth and comfort, and of course it goes without saying that it should be a showstopper.

If you want to add a rustic touch, choose the popular ‘naked cakes’ and decorate with berries, pine cones and greenery. You could even tie some cinnamon around the bottom layer to give it that festive scent. Add a boho element with a natural colour palette and charming deer decorations – don’t forget to add that bit of sparkle with a dusting of gold glitter. If you are wanting to go for simplicity, opt for a three-tier cake decorated in ivy icing, add a Mr & Mrs topper to the top in your colour scheme and create a waterfall of seasonal blooms down the side.

Bride & Groom wear There’s a lot to consider when planning any wedding, but winter weddings come with their own unique challenges and considerations – especially the temperature.

Staying warm is essential as nobody likes to see red noses or blue hands so picking the right accessories to keep you cosy is key.

For the bride, the most obvious option to add some extra warmth to your outfit is sleeves. Full length, three-quarter or short sleeves add that bit of coverage to keep the chills away. Alternatively, pair your dress with faux fur throws, shawls or brightly glittering cardigans to add some sparkle to your day.

When it comes to the groom’s attire, it is still important for him to look elegant while of course keeping warm. Plaid shirts paired with bow ties are stylish and simple, and for those outside photographs add a woollen jumper. If you want to opt for something a little smarter, have a tweed or velvet suit.

Don’t forget footwear either. Boots for both parties can be a tasteful (and practical) shoe option for winter weddings.

Venue The venue is one of the most important aspects of your big day, so it’s key to take your time and choose the place that is right for you both.

Unless you want to provide your guests with parkas and furry mittens, getting married in the winter months means an indoor wedding. If you are settled on a true winter wonderland, visit castles and stately homes, which will be an ideal setting for an unforgettable wedding.

If you want something more traditional, choose your local church for the ceremony followed by a reception at a favourite hotel or, if you are set on an outdoor wedding perhaps in a barn, make sure it is well insulated and be prepared to have lots of heaters.

If you’re opting for a registry office make sure you know where you are going for photographs, and if this is outside then supply your guests with brollies, scarves, hats, gloves and even blankets.

Bridesmaids & Groomsmen Don’t forget to keep your wedding party warm too, with cover-ups for the bridesmaids and scarves for the groomsmen.

For the dresses, go for a charcoal grey, burgundy red or if you are feeling festive opt for sequin or glitter dresses. Keep it simple with the groomsmen by choosing a white shirt and pairing it with a coloured tie.

WINTER WEDDING TIPS: • If possible have just one venue • Allow extra travel time • Have a coat check at the reception • Keep guests warm by supplying blankets and hand-warmers

• Bring umbrellas in case of rain • Have wellies on standby • Make sure you adjust your photography schedule as it gets darker earlier in winter

Favours Give out small packages of chocolatecovered cranberries, roasted chestnuts or salted caramel toffee. You could even create mini hot chocolate mixes, soy candles or bake gingerbread cookies.

Décor Decorations set the tone for the entire day, so you need to be sure that you love the décor at both the ceremony and reception.

Make use of pine cones by turning them into a placecard holder, garland or add some gold spray and use them as part of a table centrepiece or try spray-painted wine bottles paired with pillar candles to create a cosy, inexpensive wedding look.

Another great way to add some colour to your venue is through chair decorations. Use brightly coloured ribbon to add bows to the chairs, create dainty wreaths or even glitter cut outs of simple stars to add a touch of elegance.

Keep your guests toasty with a hot beverage bar, where they can help themselves to hot chocolate, mulled wine or hot apple cider. Decorate your drink station with DIY signs and simple foliage.

Safe in the knowledge DON’T GET CAUGHT OUT THIS WINTER – CHOOSE ONE OF THE MANY SERVICE PLANS AVAILABLE AT BLUEFLAME. BY PHOEBE SEYMOUR. ur boilers will have taken a big hit over winter, working hard to keep our homes a haven of warmth against the bitter chill outside. And as we come out of the worst of it and head towards spring, now is the ideal time to reward our boilers with some TLC and make sure everything is in working order.

Blueflame is a local Chesterfield-based gas service company that specialises in providing annual service plans for central heating systems. Established over 15 years ago, this professional family-run business has over 50 years’ combined experience in the industry.

Heating and hot water are things that we rely on completely, but we don’t always realise this until something goes wrong.

When it does, it’s incredibly frustrating – and often very expensive.

Service plans are a way to spread the cost of these breakdowns through monthly payments. They help to ensure someone is always on hand to help if things do go wrong.

With any boiler, the parts and labour charges that come with ad hoc repairs can be very costly. The advantage of a service plan is

O

the peace of mind it provides – as payments are made on a monthly basis you’ll have nothing to worry about, safe in the knowledge that there’ll be someone on hand to fix your system when it fails.

Something that often discourages us from agreeing contracts is the small print – but there are no such worries with Blueflame.

“Our terms and conditions are nine points on a single side of A4 in 12 point font,” says company director John Beevers. “You won’t have to trawl through a book of details!”

Blueflame offers several different levels of cover, but the basic packages are silver, which covers boilers, or gold, which also covers the full central heating system. Compared to the larger national firms, prices are very competitive.

Blueflame specialise in service plans, but that’s by no means all they do. They offer a complete range of gas and plumbing services, including boiler swaps, upgrades and power flushing to mention just a few.

Of course, when it comes to plumbing and gas businesses, the most important thing isn’t the services on offer but how trustworthy and reliable the company is. Fortunately, that’s exactly what Blueflame are – they’re Gas Safe registered, and members of Derbyshire County Council’s Trusted Trader Scheme.

What’s even more impressive is Blueflame’s fabulous reputation. They’ve got a database full of satisfied customers – many of whom return to this friendly company again and again.

Blueflame are on hand to help all year round, so contact them today to be safe in the knowledge that you’ve already planned a cosy winter.

VALENTINE’S DAY

Wacky Valentine’s Day TIRED OF HEARTS AND FLOWERS? SHOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE ON A DATE WITH A DIFFERENCE, WRITES HANNAH SANDERS. he perfect Valentine’s Day date for many of us is gazing into each other’s eyes over a candlelit meal for two, but the reality can be quite different.

With so many expectations, the pressure to book the perfect restaurant and buy the best gift can mean the magic and romance that is supposed to be at the centre of the evening can be hard to conjure up.

This task is made even more difficult if you and your partner aren’t fans of the traditional Valentine’s Day candlelit dinner, or a trip to the cinema to see the latest romantic comedy. However don’t fret as there are plenty of other fun and memorable ways to celebrate your relationship this February.

So, if your partner is an adventure seeker, animal lover, history buff or food fanatic, here are some alternative Valentine’s date ideas that they are sure to love.

T

38 Southside | www.southsidemagazine.co.uk

Drive each other up the wall For the active types, or those who simply want to try something new, head to the nearest indoor climbing wall (www.climbingworks.com). Once you’ve mastered the technique, and if you enjoy a little friendly competition, race each other to the top. For those who are more experienced, take a trip out to the Peak District to do some outdoor bouldering. Finish the afternoon off with a picnic nestled in the hills (if it’s warm enough), or simply head to the nearest pub.

VALENTINE’S DAY

GET TRAPPED IN THE ROOM, AND TRY AND BREAK OUT OF IT Solving clues and finding your way out of a room is becoming a popular group activity. So grab the couples that like a challenge and take on some of Sheffield’s escape rooms (www.thegreatesapegame.co.uk). No matter if you win or lose, it’s sure to be fun for all involved and you can finish the night with pizza and beers.

Create something together

Get competitive If you and your partner are up for some friendly competition, then why not shoot some pool, play a round of crazy golf or even a game of ping-pong? If these aren’t up your alley, then try The Treehouse, board game café (www.treehousessheffield.com) where you can play some classics games like Cluedo or monopoly while enjoying a meal and of course a tipple or two.

Scour the internet, head to the craft store for supplies, and spend a day crafting projects for your home or each other. It’s a perfect way to let your creativity shine, and you’ll have some meaningful home décor to add to your walls.

Staycation Play tourist in your own town. Make a list of activities and plan to visit some of the local sites that perhaps you’ve been putting off or simply haven’t been to for a while. If you feel like splurging, make a reservation at a hotel you’ve always wanted to spend the night in.

GO SCAVENGER HUNTING If you are feeling ambitions, then have a go at planning a scavenger hunt. Leave notes or gifts hidden away at places that you went to on special dates, or that you both share a significant memory of. It will be a great trip down memory lane as well as a fun-filled activity that’s sure to give your partner a challenge.

Cocktail masterclass Who doesn’t love a good cocktail?

This Valentine’s Day book yourselves onto a cocktail masterclass and learn how to create some of your favourite concoctions – or even invent your own.

HAVE THE PURR-FECT DATE If your partner has a soft spot for a furry feline friend, then what better way to show you care then by organising a trip to Tabby Teas cat café? This cat haven, near the city centre, is home to 12 rescue cats and provides the perfect relaxing environment to while away the afternoon. Head over to their website (www.tabbyteas.co.uk) to book online.

Treat your other half to a day filled with purr-licious food and drink while enjoying the company of not one, or two but a room filled with your favourite four-legged pals.

Cookery class If you both love cooking and want to learn a new skill, why not book yourselves in for a cookery class this Valentine’s Day? It’s a great way to expand your palates and you can learn anything from bread making and authentic Indian or Thai cooking right through to chocolate making. Take away everything you’ve learnt and whip up your partner a meal to remember.

Visit a museum/gallery Take advantage of the Steel City’s history. Get lost in the hallways of one of Yorkshire’s many museums or galleries, and soak in some culture, all while learning about both traditional and modern unique paintings and sculptures. There’s plenty to choose from including Kelham Island Museum, Millennium Galleries, National Emergency Services Museum, Weston Park and if you fancya bit of a drive head to Yorkshire Sculpture Park.

Four finalists will be invited to join us for a MasterChef-style cooking competition in the state-of-the-art kitchens at My Fathers Heart on Saturday 12 May. That’s their opportunity to create their signature main course, which will be judged by a panel of culinary experts.

My Fathers Heart, designers and makers of the region’s finest bespoke, handmade kitchens, bedrooms and furniture, regularly host glamorous events in their award-winning showroom. It proved to be the perfect venue to stage our inaugural Young Chef of the Year event in 2017.

YOUNG CHEF OF THE YEAR

The cream of the region’s young culinary talent came together and really wowed the judges with some first rate, inventive virtuoso cooking.

Last year’s winner was Dave Cockerill of The Tickled Trout in Barlow. He was nominated by owner/chef Chris Mapp and impressed the judges with a stunning dish of lemon baked halibut in a gruyere crust with an artichoke purée, Jersey Royal potatoes, samphire, baby leaves, morel mushrooms and seasonal capers with a shallot, halibut and chicken vinegar.

Dave is obviously destined for great things and now we are looking for a worthy successor to fly the flag for the region’s budding culinary talent.

The Southside/Westside/My Fathers Heart Young Chef of the Year competition is a great opportunity to shine a light on the next generation of kitchen superstars.

We’re looking forward to seeing what the best young talent out there has to offer, and giving all four finalists, a boost by placing them in the spotlight.

The results will be announced at our Restaurant Awards on Monday 5 June 2018, an event which is fast becoming the Oscars of the local restaurant scene.

So now it’s down to the head chefs and restaurateurs across the region to nominate their young kitchen stars for this prestigious event.

Stephen Delmar (Brocco on the Park)

Last year’s judges (L-R): Mick Burke, Natasha Holland, Stefan Rose and John Murphy

“The cream of the region’s young culinary talent came together and really wowed the judges with some first rate, inventive virtuoso cooking.”

We’ll be contacting restaurants across the region in the next few weeks, reminding head chefs and restaurateurs to get involved.

But don’t wait to be invited. If you employ a bright young chef with the talent and drive to reach the top, let us know.

Incidentally, last year’s shortlist of talented young kitchen stars was all-male. We know there are some fantastic female chefs out there so please help us to put them in the spotlight in 2018.

YOUNG CHEF OF THE YEAR 2018 Southside, Westside and My Fathers Heart are joining forces to search for the region’s finest culinary talent.

If you’re a head chef or restaurateur now’s the chance to tell the world about the bright young stars cooking fabulous food in your kitchens.

All entries must be under 25 years of age on 1 June 2018 To nominate your Young Chef please contact Westside managing editor Chris Wilson on chris.wilson@rmcmedia.co.uk

REGULAR MAINTENANCE WILL PROTECT YOUR HOME – JUST ASK MARTIN-BROOKS ROOFING, WHO OFFER A RANGE OF DOMESTIC ROOFING SERVICES.

A new dry ridge system fitted to an existing roof

Love your roof for lasting protection t’s a stormy winter night, the wind is slamming hail against your window, when suddenly you hear a crash…

You jump out of bed to the sound of broken tiles skittering down your roof and are greeted by bricks and mortar in your front garden and a gaping hole where your chimney once stood.

Unfortunately, this is an all too familiar story at this time of year, when our homes take a battering from the elements.

High winds, snow, ice and torrential rain can all make an appearance in February – sometimes together – and if your roof is showing signs of weakness, Mother Nature will take advantage.

“This time last year we were called to a house in Crosspool at which the owner was injured when a felt roof blew off, bringing bricks and ridge tiles with it. She made a full recovery, but it could have been much worse,” says Andrew Wheadon, an estimator at

Sheffield roofing specialists, Martin-Brooks.

“The property had a large dormer window with a chimney protruding through a flat roof. There must have been loose elements in its construction that had gone unnoticed and as a result, we had to re-felt the entire area and reinstate the chimney and ridge tiles.”

Martin-Brooks has the capacity to react quickly to emergency calls and keeps standard roofing materials in stock, ensuring there is no delay in carrying out domestic repairs.

One of the most common enquiries the firm receives concerns loose ridge tiles, which are relatively easy to spot from the ground.

Andrew added: “Traditionally ridges and hips were fixed on a bed of mortar that deteriorates over time. If they come loose, they can cause significant damage to other areas of the roof that were otherwise sound.

“A couple of years ago, new building regulations were implemented that mean we now have to use dry ridge systems on the

majority of homes. Mechanical clips hold the tiles in place that are far more secure than mortar and maintenance-free. Not many customers are aware of the changes, but are pleased with the aesthetics and the peace of mind the technique provides.”

Regular maintenance not only prevents storm damage to your own roof, but also protects the homes and people around you.

After installing a new roof on a semidetached property in Greenhill, MartinBrooks was called again by the homeowner when the neighbour’s chimney cowl blew off and broke one of her tiles. Due to the nature of the site, the roof couldn’t be accessed without scaffolding, turning a relatively simple fix into an insurance claim for hundreds of pounds.

Thankfully, not all roof repairs are costly nightmares. One landlord was very pleased to receive a call informing him the problem with his gutters was nothing more than a hefty blockage. Martin-Brooks simply cleaned them out and the issue was resolved.

For everyone attending a Health and Wellness event at My Fathers Heart, 2018 got off to the best possible start.

The theme for the evening, organised by Niki Thompson from The Beauty Clinic and The Laser Clinic, was How To Stay Young: The Four Pillars Of Health, and there were experts on hand to offer help and advice for those who want to be at the top of their game for 2018.

There were four different presentations: Eat Well, Move Well, Think Well and Relax Well.

Many of us feel the need for a change of diet after over-indulging at Christmas and a demonstration by a registered nutritional therapist, and healthy food demonstrations by the Bora chefs provided inspirational alternatives.

With exercise in mind, Move Well was a demonstration and mini join-in session from a select group of fitness individuals offering tailored advice.

Think Well was a demonstration by a mindfulness expert with tips on getting connected with your mind and body and becoming more positive; Relax Well introduced guests to a select group of conventional, alternative and complimentary health specialists demonstrating the power of their therapies.

Holiday? Snow problem PLANNING A FAMILY GETAWAY THIS HALF-TERM? PHOEBE SEYMOUR LOOKS AT IDEAL FAMILY BREAKS, BOTH AT HOME AND ABROAD. t this time of year, when the skies are grey and the temperatures are low, nothing lifts the spirits more than having a holiday to look forward to. And with half-term coming up in February, now is the perfect time to plan a family getaway.

When it comes to winter holidays, we tend to fall into two camps – those who embrace the beautiful yet chilly outdoors, and those who wish to escape to much sunnier climes.

With this in mind, we’ve rounded up every kind of winter holiday, from British breaks, to exotic getaways.

SKIING HOLIDAYS Enjoy the seasonal snow and get the whole family active with a skiing holiday.

Significantly heavy snowfall in January has meant that now is a great time to hit the resorts in the French and Austrian Alps.

Avoriaz is a fantastic destination for families as it is safe, convenient and has the highest and most snow-sure slopes in the Portes du Soleil area. Childcare is also provided at the Village des Enfants in the centre of the resort.

Obergurgl in Austria is another great option as it is picturesque and has easier slopes for beginners.

Children from as young as three can join the Bobo Skiclub or the indoor Bobo Kindergarten.

If you are looking to travel further afield, Tremblant in the French-speaking area of Canada is a purposebuilt village lined with cobbled streets and vibrantlycoloured buildings designed in the old Québec style. It is also home to a highly-rated ski school for children.

Closer to home, Scotland currently has five operational resorts. Glencoe (www.glencoemountain.co.uk) has the best snow cover and is an area of outstanding beauty.

Skiing lessons are available for children as young as five, while experienced skiers can enjoy the longest and the steepest ski run in Scotland.

MAIN PICTURE: The volcanic mountains of Gros and Petit Piton in St Lucia INSET: Puerto del Carmen in Lanzarote

Sunny winter holidays Say goodbye to your winter blues with a holiday in a much warmer part of the world.

The Canary Islands are within easy reach with temperatures in the low 20s, while the Caribbean is at its hottest and driest right now.

When it comes to the Canaries, Lanzarote is a good all-rounder, with plenty of family facilities in the Los Pocillos area, close to the popular Puerto del Carmen resort. Inland, Timanfaya National Park offers dramatic landscapes for an action-packed week.

Over in the Caribbean, St Lucia is home to some of the world’s most gorgeous beaches, including the golden strip of Anse Chastanet, while volcanic mountains Gros and Petit Piton are perfect for hiking and picture opportunities. The Bay Gardens Beach Club Resort is family-friendly and is next to Reduit Beach.

“When it comes to the Canaries, Lanzarote is a good all-rounder, with plenty of family facilities in the Los Pocillos area, close to the popular Puerto del Carmen resort.”

Great British holidays Appreciate the beaches, forests and greenery all around us, by packing up the car and taking a trip to a popular UK holiday destination.

Forest Holidays (www.forestholidays.co.uk) offer luxurious cabins in ten idyllic locations including nearby Sherwood Forest, Blackwood Forest in the south and Ardgarten Argyll in Scotland. Each cabin includes a hot tub and a Forest range of activities from cycling and canoeing to Forest Holidays Ranger activities for kids.

It may be too cold to paddle, but there is still plenty to do in the winter months at some of Britain’s favourite seaside towns. A Swanage, trip to one of Whitby’s (www.visitwhitby.com) museums such Dorset as the Captain Cook Museum and a hot chocolate in one of the town’s many tearooms is sure to keep the troop happy.

Book a holiday cottage off one of the winding gothic streets or a short drive away in the idyllic Robin Hood’s Bay. Over in Blackpool, donkey rides may be off the table, but thrill seekers will be pleased to hear that the Blackpool Pleasure Beach (www.blackpoolpleasurebeach.com) is open in February, along with Nickelodeon Land for younger children.

Further down in Dorset (www.visit-dorset.com), you will find two more traditional seaside towns – Swanage and Weymouth. Wrap up warm and go fossil hunting on Chesil Beach or enjoy an indoor activity such as the Sealife Centre in Weymouth if it’s a rainy day.

In Cornwall (www.visitcornwall.com) now may not be the time to sunbathe on one of St Ives white beaches, but its narrow winding streets lined with fisherman’s cottages are lovely to take a stroll down, while indoor activities feature historic houses, castles, museums and World Heritage Sites.

STAYCATIONS Alternatively, why not stay home and take a few daytrips to the many amazing museums and galleries right on our doorstep?

Our region has a wealth of attractions, from Yorkshire Wildlife Park (www.yorkshirewildlifepark.com) in Doncaster, to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (www.ysp.org.uk) in Leeds, which is great for walkers and art-lovers alike.

Kids gear up for bird watch The world’s biggest schools’ wildlife survey – is back with hundreds of children expected to take part in Sheffield.

The RSPB Big Schools Birdwatch is the perfect opportunity for school children to get outside, learn and make their first discoveries in nature.

Blackbirds, house sparrows and robins are at the top of the checklist for hundreds of school children across South Yorkshire.

The event involves children spending an hour watching and counting the birds that visit their outdoor space, before sending the results to the RSPB. Last year, more than 850 children and teachers in South Yorkshire took part.

Woodpigeon was the most common playground visitor in the county and 96 per cent of schools spotted one during their watch. Blackbirds, magpies and robins all featured prominently in the results, and with over 70 different species recorded, there are sure to be a few surprises in schools around the region.

To take part in the event, which runs until 23 February, visit www.rspb.org.uk.

Z CARS The highly delightful and exceptionally enjoyable Mazda MX-5 has a new addition to its line-up – It’s called the Z-Sport.

Limited to just 300 cars, the Z-Sport stands out from the rest of the range by introducing a cherry-coloured roof, BBS alloy wheels and sand leather seats.

Like the standard MX-5 the Z-Sport will be powered by a 157hp 2.0-litre petrol motor with the power being sent to the rear wheels via a delicious six-speed snappy manual gearbox. No 1.5-litre engine available here.

The Z-Sport represents the first chance to buy a currentgeneration MX-5 convertible with an alternatively coloured fabric roof. No other model has this feature therefore it is Prices start from £25,595 when the car goes on sale from 1 March 2018.

The Focus RS is, to put it bluntly, a road-going heat-seeking missile. It is one of the fastest cars on typical British B-roads and yet it’s just a Ford with a Ford pricetag.

Available only from February until March, Ford has released what they call the RS Red Edition. This ‘pack’ allows the Focus RS to be ordered with a Race Red exterior body colour accompanied by black-cast alloy wheels and some grey-finished brake callipers.

It features contrasting black roof, door mirrors and rear spoiler, plus partial leather Recaro seats and carbon fibre trim. Other features include rear parking sensors, Active City Stop, cruise control and privacy glass.

Just 300 units will be built with a pricetag starting from £36,295.

Living up to its name Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you the fastest and most extreme McLaren road car ever made – the McLaren Senna.

With a name bearing the most famous F1 drivers’ name of them all, Ayrton Senna, this car must live up to its promise and live up to it it does indeed. For starters, this car is a race-car legalised for the road. How cool is that?

It’s the lightest McLaren road car since the iconic McLaren F1 and – being powered by a 789hp 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 – the most powerful internal combustion McLaren engine to date – it will be able to bend the laws of physics (almost).

Like all modern McLaren products, it has a mid-engine reardrive chassis.

Priced at £750,000.

CHESTERFIELD CHAMPIONS

OUR SHOPS ARE BUCKING THE TREND AND THRIVING, SAYS PETER SWALLOW, CHAIR OF DESTINATION CHESTERFIELD. t is the shortest month of the year and it may be horribly grey outside, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be deceived â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Chesterfieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future is bright. This month, the spotlight is on the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s retail sector. Nominations for the 2018 Chesterfield Retail Awards are now open.

I

Now in their fifth year, the Chesterfield Retail Awards are the perfect way to celebrate our townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s booming retail scene, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s up to you as shoppers to nominate retailers that deserve the recognition that a nomination and potential win these coveted awards can bring.

All too often we hear how the UKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high streets are struggling. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tempting to look at empty shops in our town centre and think that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the same story in Chesterfield, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not.

Our abundance of both independent retailers and big high street names, alongside the historic market, means that retail in Chesterfield is unlike most towns in the UK. Last year we attracted new retailers to the town centre â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Deichmann, TJ Hughes Patisserie Valerie and Trespass, as well as new independents.

The independent sector is thriving and there are many success stories. Adorn Jewellers, for instance, opened in the Shambles five years ago and in 2017 opened a second

store in Bakewell. Geeks Headquarters tells a similar story. It started off on the market before moving to shop premises on Rose Hill.

This year we will see the regeneration of the upper end of the town centre where work has begun on transforming the former Co-op into a hotel and restaurants. More development will happen here with the creation of Northern Gateway which will all serve to feed crucial footfall into the town centre and ensure it not only survives but thrives.

The Chesterfield Retail Awards arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just about town centre businesses, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re about every single retailer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; whether they are a shop, salon, bakery, market stall or crafter â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that operates within S40 and S41.

There is a huge retail offering outside the town centre. Areas like Chatsworth Road and Whittington Moor are lined with shops and stores, but I urge you to look behind these and down the side streets to uncover the unsung heroes of retail.

So, my message this month is to not only nominate in the 2018 Retail Awards at www.chesterfield.co.uk, but also to support our local businesses with your custom. Take a break from online shopping and get to know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on your doorstep. I think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be surprised.
