Intro So I'm back from my weekend at the Eroica Britannia Vintage Cycling & Family Festival in Bakewell. It rained consistently for the entire week running up to the event but a little rain doesn't dampen the British spirit. We pulled out the umbrellas and wellies and got on with it. The rain held off over the main two days and the sun shone... occasionally!

The event was a great achievement for the team that put on the festival: the five main organisers, the staff on the ground, the 4x4's pulling the caravans and campers into place and the guys with the tanker sucking up the puddles, all working tirelessly to do a great job.

I did the short 'tourist' route, which was just brill, taking in some of the best views of the White Peak from the bunting clad streets of Bakewell to the view from Bretton Edge. The crowd of riders stopping to take photos at the Headstone Viaduct over the River Wye was so thick you had to get off and push your bike through. Passing through Tideswell and Eyam we felt like Tour de France riders as the crowds cheered our arrival, then after a quick beer at Thornbridge Hall onto the final leg back to the festival site, more clapping and cheering greeted us as we completed our ride in style.

The festival had something for everyone, stands selling all sorts of cycling kit and bikes, a fun fair, cinema, kids areas, a beach, loads of food and the odd bar or two.

A number of Chesterfield based

f S40Local

businesses could be recognised and everywhere was busy.

The Aviva Women's Tour brought even more cyclists to Chesterfield town centre on the Friday of the Eroica Festival, that stage being won by Lizzie Armistead from Otley, who later went on to win the five day stage race. The impact on our area of the visiting fans and attendees at Bakewell and Chesterfield can't be overlooked, 1000's of people spending time and money in the towns.

I can't wait until next year and huge thanks to my riding partner, Steve 'the butchers boy' Rippin (pictured) resplendent on his butchers bike, apron and flags flying, sausages proudly displayed in the basket and mad keen to overtake as many riders as possible!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this edition. Please drop me an email, give me a call or you can even put pen to paper if you have anything to share.

Westfield: The End of an Era

We talk to retiring head teacher, Paula Kingdon, as she prepares for her final leavers assembly.

Words: Paul Chapman Picture: Children at Westfield School

I

t’s the end of an era at Westfield school as Mrs Kingdon, who started working at the school in 1976, retires on the 21 July, after 40 years!

Paula, as she’d prefer me to call her (I’m a little uncomfortable about this, she’ll always be Mrs Kingdon to me!), has played an integral role in the lives of many local people and multiple generations of the same family, so we couldn’t let this pass without going to talk to her and marking the occasion.

It was lovely to see her, she was as welcoming as ever, and even though we were doing our best to get you the latest gossip… she considered her words carefully and diplomatically, maintaining her professionalism throughout. But she’s clearly emotional about leaving the job, school, community and the people that she’s dedicated 40 years of her life to.

Westfield was her first job as an NQT, fresh out of teacher training college in Sheffield. “I joined when Mrs Hehir was the head teacher, I was newly qualified and scared about the prospect of taking full responsibility for a whole group of children for an entire year. Luckily for me, Elaine Graham, my teaching assistant, was a tremendous support, helping me through and showing me the ropes.

“Mrs Hehir’s school was structured, it was in the days before the National Curriculum, where schools were pretty much left to their own devices.

There was

a clear timetable of lessons and a structure around what was taught, which made it much easier to join as a new starter – it was the Westfield Way! “When Mrs Hehir left, she was succeeded

by Mrs Mo Wilson. Mo came from an inner city school in Derby at a time of changing trends in education, with parents seen as partners in the learning journey. Mo believed in community and parental involvement and introduced class assemblies, encouraged people into the school and started the PFA. “At this time, I became deputy head and was deputy throughout Mo Wilson’s leadership and under Mrs Judy Hardwick. Sadly Judy passed away last year.

"Judy supported and further developed the 'Westfield Way', she was an organised and passionate teacher who implemented many of the structures I would later take over and evolve.

“When Judy left in 1995 I became acting head. The governors advertised the role twice, but I didn’t feel ready to apply and the role wasn’t filled. It was Easter time and the school received notification of an Ofsted inspection in July (teachers out there, can you believe you used to get 3 months’ notice!).

As acting head I lead the Ofsted preparations and when they next advertised the role my confidence had grown, partly thanks to the Ofsted preparations, and I applied. I was interviewed and appointed on Friday 6 July, the week prior to the Ofsted inspection".

Brought up in the Westfield way, Paula embraced and evolved the principles laid down by her predecessors. The people recruited along the way have been people who were also willing to embrace these principles, Paula is extremely proud and grateful for their dedication and support.

Paula explained “My philosophy has always been children first, whilst being considerate to the staff. Westfield has always had a strong team spirit, but I realise now that I have

underestimated the true impact on the children of the mutual support the staff team give to each other. Having that strong and supportive team provides the children with a positive and supportive atmosphere in which to learn”.

Paula admitted “I’m struggling to look forward to not being here, and at the moment, the only advantage I can see is that, as a Liverpool season ticket holder, I’ll be able to go to midweek games!”

“I’ve always lived in Sheffield but I’m integrated into the community here and it will be a huge wrench for me not to be involved in people’s lives, and frankly I’m petrified about September. But I know it’s the right time for the school and I’m hoping it’s also the right time for me. There are some really big changes coming down the line in education and I think the school needs someone who can see those changes through, someone with the energy to embrace the change. I do think there are exciting times ahead for Westfield and I’m very comfortable leaving the school in the capable hands of Rachel Risorto, who taught here previously – it means I don’t have to worry about the people I’m leaving behind”.

“Without wanting to sound like someone on X Factor, I’ve loved this job, it’s a unique position to be involved in the families of this community. People entrust their child to me, a stranger, and I see those children grow; nervously delivering lines in their first class assembly, they blossom into confident children prepared and ready for the next stage of their learning journey, it’s a privileged job”.

“So we’re holding a leavers assembly, which I’m really hoping my Mum will be able to come to. It will be the first time she’s been over to the school and it would mean a great deal to me if she could be there”.

Paula will also be sharing her last day with Caroline Soar who started in 1995 and Jane Heath who’s been at Westfield for 6 years and have both supported Paula in developing and nurturing so many local children in their early years education.

Before we left, I had to ask Paula about Westfield’s reputation for opening whatever the weather… she smiled slightly embarrassed, putting it down to having so many teachers living within walking distance of the school, and modestly reminded us that it wasn’t a perfect record, they’ve closed the school on at least 3 occasions! She declined to mention that even though the teachers are close, she still travels in from Sheffield, which to me does some sum up the dedication she’s given to this community and her job!

“

For our family and so many others, Paula Kingdon is Westfield, and has been for as long as we can remember.

She is always there, both emotionally and physically, caring and ready to chat and to ask about whole extended families that she’s known in years gone

by. Paula’s focus has always been on the children that pass through Westfield’s doors but also ensures that the school is at the heart of the community and that everyone who has a link with Westfield continues to maintain this, no matter how much time passes. We’ll all really miss her and her morning hugs but wish

her all the best for her retirement, with plenty of time now to put herself first and to focus on family, friends, holidays and her beloved Liverpool FC!" Helen Barlow, (Pupil and Parent)

So that’s what Paula told us.

And here’s what some of the people who know her told us…

“

I was at Westfield from 1981 to 1984. I remember being in Reception and Paula was a 3rd year teacher (now year 2). Being so little I remember finding her very scary.

However, when I was eventually taught by her in the 3rd year she was anything but!

Move forwards to 2005 and my eldest daughter started at Westfield, Paula now head teacher. She was there every morning to open the main doors to let the children in, childminding the babies in their buggies!

I remember at my daughter's leaving assembly feeling quite sad and Paula saying the grown ups always think this is the last time they'll be at Westfield but somehow or other another baby comes along and they end up back in the school! Not me, I thought.

How wrong was I and how right was Paula! Ten years later and it's September 2015 and my youngest daughter starts at Westfield! And ten years later Paula is still there every morning opening the doors to welcome the children, always with a smile on her face.

I'm quite sad my youngest will not get to spend all her three years under Paula's leadership and it will be very strange in September not to see her unlocking those doors day after day.

One small kind gesture I remember recently. It was the Christmas concerts and my daughter was so upset and sat on her teacher's knee throughout the whole concert. I wasn't there, but her dad was, and on telling me I rang the school and spoke to Paula. She said she had taken my little girl into the office and spoken to her and given her a sticker to cheer her up. She just has a certain way of reassuring parents that all is ok.

It definitely is the end of an era for Westfield.”

Sarah Witham (Pupil and Parent)

“

I went to the school as a mature but very ‘scared’ student, 16 years ago! I never left the school as it became my ‘2nd home’- I felt safe there, and the staff became part of my family! I have never taught in any other school apart from on teaching practices, but I have never felt the need to leave!

Paula has not only been ‘Head Teacher’ to me but became my friend! We have shared many a ‘laugh’ outside school as well as in!

Page 6 www.s40local.co.uk

“

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Paula for several years in my role as Chair of the PFA at Westfield. I can honestly say that volunteering alongside someone so committed to Westfield has been the reason I have happily given so much time. Her energy and dedication is infectious and the fact that she’s there sweeping the floor, wiping tables and washing up at the end of so many events is testimony to the phenomenal amount of love she has for the school. I remember after the Christmas fair last year, long after the crowds had departed, we were washing out the chocolate fondue machine and I turned the tap the wrong way. Instead of switching it off, I turned it on full power, literally drenching her in a mix of scolding water and watered down chocolate, as the water bounced off the dome of the machine. She was still laughing when I wiped the drips off her nose with the elbow of my jumper, which was the only part of us not covered in sticky gloop. I shall chortle about that for a long time to come!”

Hannah Leaning (Parent and Chair of PFA)

“

Paula is a generous and kind hearted individual who sees potential in everyone, even when they don't see it themselves. I have worked at Westfield, with Paula, for 21 years and she has had more faith in me and my ability to succeed, than almost anyone else in my life, particularly myself.

For that, I will be eternally grateful" One other thing I have been continually grateful to Paula for, or the last 21 years, is her ability and willingness to step in and clear up sick..... As everyone at Westfield knows, I don't do sick!!!"

Kate Bartram (Teacher)

She took me skiing 3 times just to prove I COULD do it! She watched patiently as I fell off the ski lift…times many! It still isn’t my favourite sport but I would never have attempted many things like this in the last 16 years without her help or the confidence she has given me to move forward in my own personal life!

I could share many stories with you and enlighten you a little more about her lovely, kind, generous and

sincere nature - again, in and out of school! We talk in school in jest about ‘The Westfield Experience’ but that’s why so many parents enjoy coming back to Westfield with their younger siblings! The school will move into a new era when she leaves, she will be very sadly missed by the children and parents, but most of all - the staff!”

Article

One Hundred Years Ago: 1 July 1916, France Words: Trevor The Ink

T

hey were given a giant bacon sandwich and a mug of tea; tea with a shot of rum for those that wanted one. They had names like Ernest, Albert, Wilfred, Hubert, Horace: names like your great grandad’s mates used to have, though most were in their twenties. They’d come from places like Brampton, Hasland, Holymoorside; from Wingerworth and Whittington; from Staveley; from Bakewell and Buxton, Matlock and Clay Cross, even from Whaley Bridge. But the largest group came from Chesterfield. In peacetime they’d had jobs like miner, railway worker, pottery furnace man, shop clerk. Many just described themselves as ‘labourer’. They’d earned their living at places now long gone: Broad Oaks Foundry, Wheatbridge Potteries, Boythorpe Colliery; Lincoln Boiler Works, and the Chesterfield Brewery.

Today though, the 1st of July 1916, they were soldiers of the Sherwoods, men of the 6th Battalion. Volunteers, all of them. They were in France, waiting in the pre-dawn dark in the support trenches, carrying their own load of equipment and a rifle, but also carrying extra supplies for the men who would attack in the forward waves, the 5th and 7th Sherwoods.

They were loaded with ammunition boxes, medical dressings, picks and shovels, rolls of barbed wires, and bags of grenades carried on stretchers. So much weight that they sank up to their knees, even their waists, in the muddy flooded communication trenches as they moved to their assigned positions. But at least it wasn’t raining.

Page 16 www.s40local.co.uk

At 7:30am the British artillery, which had been bombarding the enemy lines - just 400 yards away - for seven whole days, switched its fire onto more distant targets. In the advanced trenches officers and men of the leaving waves of the 5th and 7th battalions looked at their watches and prepared themselves. Behind them the men of the 6th lifted their loads and made ready to move to the jumping off trenches for their turn to go over the top. The whistles blew.

You know what happened next? Or you think you do? You’re mostly right, of course. In fact the 6th Battalion, one of the last waves of men due to go across, got off relatively lightly. Only 170 killed and wounded that day. The 5th and 7th lost far more than that. It was a horrible day for the Sherwoods, despite the medals earned.

A horrible day for the British Army; more than 57,000 casualties, 19,240 dead. A horrible day for the 6th, too, and their friends and families back home.

It was the 1st of July 1916, the first day of the Battle of the Somme. One hundred years ago this month: a day we should remember, even now, even in Chesterfield. So here’s to all the Harrys, the Alberts, the Ernests; the Toms, the Sidneys, the Walters, the Herberts, the Franks.

And to all the other men of the Sherwoods who died that awful day, now so long ago.

If you'd like to find out what happened to the Sherwoods at the first day of the Somme, you can read the full article on our website www. s40local.co.uk

Business Intro

Derbyshire Pride.

Italian Inspiration.

We catch up with the team at The Tickled Trout, Barlow.

Words: Paul Chapman

C

hris Mapp’s family are Barlow born and bred, and grew up with The Trout as his local, so when it came up for a sale a few years ago he decided it was too good an opportunity to miss.

The pub was fully refurbished from top to bottom and contains comfortable dining areas, a cosy bar, open fires, a more formal dining area plus a private dining room upstairs that is bookable and free to hire for parties of less than 30, giving you a personal space in which to relax.

The environment is easy going, pub dining.

Good food, good service and a sourcing strategy that supports the businesses and suppliers that surround them (check out the supplier map opposite). Seven Hills Bakery at Hunters Bar supply speciality breads, Highfield House Farm’s Sunday beef is very popular, tea and coffee from Northern Tea Merchants. Although the fish isn’t quite so local, Derbyshire not having any oceans, it's brought up each day from Cornwall.

I’m meeting manager Tom Schofield to understand what’s new and how the Trout became Tickled.

“Chris (pictured opposite) is a trained chef and has spent time in high end kitchens such as the Greenhouse, Marcus Wareing’s Petrus and Paul Ainsworth’s Number 6 at Padstow.

So although The Tickled Trout is still very much a village pub, it has great food at its heart.

“Chris wanted to give something back and put the pub at the centre of the village again and the response from the locals has been fantastic” says Tom. “We were recently awarded Westside Magazine’s Gastro Pub of the Year, to say we’re very pleased with the result is an understatement.

“The team here are local and have been with us since the outset, the kitchen team includes chefs, fresh from school who are studying locally, supported by Chris.

“Our strapline ‘Derbyshire Pride Italian Inspiration’ describes the ethos behind our menu, but we’re not an Italian restaurant... we

Page 20 www.s40local.co.uk

also offer more traditional choices but with an Italian twist. The Derbyshire Pride Menu has Sirloin Steaks (sourced from Highfield House farm), The TT Chicken Burger, Derbyshire Two-Beef or not Two-Beef Burgers, Derbyshire Pie with various fillings each day plus other options and the daily specials.”

“We have a bits and bobs tapas style option and a pizza deal all day Tuesdays, £15 for 2 pizzas. The pizzas have been so popular that we’ve introduced it as a lunch option and not many people know, but we also do takeaway pizzas”.

Fancy giving it a go...

Trout Tickling is the art of rubbing the underbelly of a trout to induce the trout into a trance, so you can easily throw it onto the nearest bit of dry land!

I joked about a white, red and green Vespa driving around delivering pizzas. “We don’t do delivery but we have discussed that very idea many times” replied Tom. “We want everyone who steps into the Tickled Trout to come back time and time again, and this applies to both customers and suppliers alike” explains Tom. If you’re looking for an opportunity to call up and see what the Tickled Trout has to offer, lunch times are really relaxed, or you could check out their website for their many events.

A highlight is the Cyder and Food event on 18 August, “The owner of Aspall Cyder is coming in to see us and will be doing a talk on matching ciders and food for the perfect taste combination” enthuses Tom. And August is the Barlow Carnival when the Tickled Trout will be open for what promises to be a busy weekend. It might just be a great time to call in for lunch and a drink.

Beatrix is The Potter for Brampton!

The Brampton Potteries Festival Words & Pictures: Chris Townsend

T

he Brampton Potteries Festival, now in its ninth year, has become part of the summer scene in the Old Road area. The Festival is a celebration of an area where once potteries were the major employer.

Each year local residents, schools and businesses have shown depths of artistic talent by using pots and other materials to create scenes linked to a chosen theme. In past years, themes have included ‘The Circus’, ‘Children’s Nursery Rhymes’ and ‘Potty Britain’ but this year the Festival will have a somewhat literary flavour.

Helen Beatrix Potter was born In July 1866 and grew up to be a remarkable children’s storyteller.

Amongst other works her ‘Tales of Peter Rabbit’ became legendary and not just for the writing alone. Children down the generations have loved the stories but also the illustrations and it is from those illustrations that we hope those entering the Potteries Festival will take their cue.

To broaden the choice and scope we are including entries based on other writers who celebrate significant anniversaries this year. Charlotte Bronte was born in 1816, Roald Dahl in 1916, H.G. Wells died in 1946 and of course the world’s most renowned poet and playwright William Shakespeare died four hundred years ago this Spring.

The Potteries Festival will take place on Saturday 9th July, when The Mayor and Mayoress will open the Festival outside number 49 Old Road (near Serpent Motors) at 12.00 noon. It continues on Sunday 11th July with a Festival Service at The Gospel Mission Church at 10:45am and a Big Picnic outside the church at 12:30pm. There will be items of Brampton Pottery on display in the church as well as a brief history of the Pottery firms that dominated the area.

Entries are already coming in and the organisers expect many more. If you wish to take part or for further information, contact, gospelmissionuk.aol.com Pictures: From top clockwise. The staff of Silver Scissors show their interpretation of 'Potty Britain’ to The Mayor and Mayoress. (Prince William, Kate with George and the then newborn Charlotte); They’re changing guard at Buckingham Palace….but where’s Alice?; Even The Minions get in on the act. ‘Potty Britain’ indeed!; Is it Bill or is it Ben? Only little weed knows the answer; Old Hall School’s display of The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party. Below: The Pearly King and Queen of Brampton!

Business Update

It's all about the Food.

We pop up Pudding Pie Hill to meet Craig Spall, the new chef at The Fox & Goose.

Words: Paul Chapman

T

he Fox & Goose is sat on Pudding Pie Hill and offers a panoramic view of Chesterfield and beyond and the food offered is pretty special and so it should be being located on Pudding Pie Hill!

Chef Craig Spall is taking the venue to another level with his culinary delights. Aged forty one, and originating from Grimsby North East Lincolnshire, he’s passionate about the food he serves. Craig’s father was his greatest inspiration, cooking up food on the Grimsby trawlers. Craig has followed in his father’s path but focusing on boutique menu selections.

Craig started his career from the roots of the kitchen, his first job was working as a pot washer in an Italian restaurant and then moving to be a Commis chef (trainee) at the same establishment. Craig’s twenty seven year career has taken him to restaurants in France and London, head chef of boutique hotels and he has cooked for the rich and famous. Craig says ‘I really enjoyed my time as Head Chef in the south of France, based in Provence, the French are obsessed with culinary delights.’

When Craig is dining out his favourite dish would be Confit Duck Leg with French style cassoulet and other French classics. When Craig isn’t working and preparing food he spends his time visiting food markets and sampling the food that’s on offer locally.

Craig has been instrumental in introducing the Bank Holiday Fish and Fizz menu inspired by his Grimsby roots. He has been serving some pretty special dishes that have gone down well at the Fox & Goose. Every Bank Holiday at The Fox & Goose, every four people dining receive a complimentary bottle of fizz. Check out the recent food reviews from Sticky Beak Blog which has given the Fox rave reviews after a Bank Holiday dinner.

Page 28 www.s40local.co.uk

When asked what Craig loves about running the kitchen at The Fox and Goose he replies ‘I like the whole atmosphere and the easy going nature of the staff and the kitchen team, we are like a small family, we look out for one another and it’s great that (where possible) all our food is locally sourced.”

From Tuesday to Thursday lunchtime every week you can enjoy The Silver Fox’s three course lunch for just £9.95. “Our visitors over the age of 55 are always telling us that there is too much food, so this offer is especially for them, small portions of good quality, tasty food. In addition to this we always have on offer the Landlord's lunch menu” says Craig.

“During the week the Fox offers Pub Classics including a deal for two steaks and a bottle of wine all day every Thursday and Friday or alternatively Fish and Chips for two for just £25.

“Fridays and Saturdays we offer an à la carte menu and new special dishes put together by myself and the team, and on Sundays we’re renowned for our beautiful Sunday Lunch” says Craig, “all accompanied by an exciting drinks offer with a huge variety of gins and spirits along with Cask Ales and some fantastically tasty locally brewed beers.”

If you’ve never been to the Fox & Goose or simply haven’t been for a while, with the introduction of the new menu it might just be the right time to reacquaint yourself. Also they offer a loyalty card to receive money off vouchers and if you join the VIP Priority events booking list you’ll get early invites to events at all venues.

Advertorial

Still Poles apart in terms of Innovation!

Polar Windows Words: Mike Snow (Reflections Magazine)

M

r and Mrs Jameson from Darley Dale approached Polar Windows with a view to having an orangery, which would perhaps overcome the traditional disadvantages of a conservatory. The regular complaint about ‘standard’ conservatories is that they are too hot in summer and too cold in winter and, as such, are not universally useable as ‘live in’ rooms.

Adrian Bradley, Retail Contracts Manager at Polar Windows, is avidly intent at keeping in touch with the latest trends in innovative systems, and was quick to offer The Jamesons an alternative proposal, which, he believed, would fulfil their dreams. He knew they really wanted a conservatory that felt more like a room… a living room, perhaps? He knew he could help!

For a modern, contemporary crossover between a conservatory and extension then the ‘must have’ product is the Ultraframe Livinroom – and this was Adrian’s recommendation!

The Livinroom offers the best of both worlds combining the light and sky of a conservatory with the walls and ceiling of an extension.

The Livinroom adds a whole new dynamic to the space, giving it a ‘real room/living room’ feel. The Livinroom uses the well-proven Ultraframe Classic roof system, then adds an engineered steel framing system internally, which is plastered to give a perimeter ceiling

Page 32 www.s40local.co.uk

all the way round the Classic roof. The A-rated self-cleaning, anti-glare glass has a special coating, which keeps the sun out in summer yet retains the heat in winter.

One of the main benefits of the Livinroom is that it conceals the join between the roof and the walls of the conservatory, which improves the look, aesthetics and insulation of the construction. It also allows for the installation of internal spot lighting, and has the capacity to incorporate the guttering and cornice of the structure. The Livinroom adds strength which also helps to protect it against winter weather conditions.

All the steelwork and wiring are hidden, and the interior can be further enhanced with the use of lighting within the plasterboard, and is suitable to use with bi-folding and French doors. Externally the aluminium Cornice, available in a wide range of colours, can be used to add to the visual effect.

Mr & Mrs Jameson are delighted with their new ‘acquisition’. “The Livinroom frame adds extra space to our home and welcomes more natural light,” she says. “It has a modern, airy feel and its increased insulation has resolved all of the common temperature regulation issues, meaning it can be used as much in winter as summer.”

The Livinroom comes with a holistic 10 year guarantee.

Fund Raiser

Raising Funds for Macmillan Cancer Centre Blanc and Trendco join forces to raise money for a great local cause.

B

lanc & Trendco Nottingham are teaming up to host a charity Fashion Show in aid of the new Macmillan Centre in Chesterfield.

Together with Trendco Nottingham, who will be providing the wigs for the models, Blanc will put on a stylish show that every fashionista will love.

The charity evening is being held at the PROACT, Chesterfield Football Club on the 22nd September 2016 and the hosts hope to raise lots of money for the new £2.5 million project which is due to open later this year.

Trendco Nottingham meet, on a daily basis, chemotherapy patients who will benefit from the new centre in Chesterfield. “When I found out that a new Macmillan Centre was being built in Chesterfield I knew I had to help raise as much money as possible. I meet women every day who rely on Macmillan whilst going through a tough period in their lives.” said Nicola Moore, Trendco Nottingham’s manager.

The Chesterfield Royal Macmillan Cancer Centre is an exciting new development giving people with cancer in North and North East Derbyshire vital treatment, care and support in one purpose-built centre providing joined up services closer to home. Currently, cancer care and treatment is provided in different locations across the hospital site.

Blanc of 131 Chatsworth Road is now in its sixth year and owner Anne-Marie is excited to be holding her largest show yet.

"When we first opened in 2011 we wanted to bring a bit of London sparkle and glamour to Chesterfield, which we did by stocking brands that weren’t available in our region.

We continue to source labels and brands that you can’t buy without a trip to the capital" says Anne-Marie. "We have something for everyone and it's not all evening wear, for instance our range of tops starts from just £21 and our 'Amazing Woman' jeans couldn't have a better name because everyone who buys a pair, or two, agrees they are amazing! Coupled with a simple top and their effortless style shines through, from a coffee with the girls to the theatre you will look amazing. We will be showcasing our extensive range at the show."

Blanc & Trendco Nottingham Presents

CHARITY FASHION SHOW Page 34 www.s40local.co.uk

Sally Bee, a TV chef, nutritionist and healthy living enthusiast will be a special guest at the show.

Quirkpop, Standard Lamps, Me and Mr Jones Words: Dave Banks

T

he quintet, “Me and Mr Jones” (two percussionists, a vocalista, a guitarist and a standard lamp named Stan) have popped out of very different musical backgrounds in the Chesterfield area and are now playing local festivals.

They aspire to harmony. They wear either tweed or bandanas. They like hitting things. They’re middle aged.

They take pride in performing their own musical “quirkpop”.

It all started at Hasland Theatre.

Louise, Dave, Rob and Mr Jones had taken roles in a variety of the theatre’s productions, including One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, House of Games and Uncle Vanya.

But during the musical extravaganza that was Oh! What a Lovely War, in November 2014, they discovered a mutual love of singing. The eponymous Mr Jones (percussion, keyboard, voice) was a stalwart of the Chesterfield band “Under the Sun” and had enjoyed a short period of fame with his George Michael act on Stars in their Eyes. Louise (vocals) had worked on the technical

production of several West End musicals; Dave (guitar) - a hard-core folkie - had just returned, enthused to the eyebrows, from a song-writing course in Devon; Rob (hitting things) was notorious as one of north-east Derbyshire’s greatest Alice Cooper and Ian Dury fans.

“Me and Mr Jones” was conceived and born (no, let’s forget that image!) with the assistance of Garage Band in a front room in Ashgate... where new life was breathed into old songs, videos were cobbled together and new songs were rapidly composed and recorded. The original duo expanded to the current four members and we started playing folk evenings at The Peacock and the Dronfield Coach and Horses, and open mic evenings at The Matlock Bath Fishpond and the Neptune.

More importantly, we became comfortable with our style of music.

Although we all have rather different musical tastes, we found that we enjoyed playing harmony-rich, somewhat quirky pop music - and we’re not ashamed to admit it. We

travel light - we get bored with bands that take 30 minutes to set up their electrical paraphernalia - so we rely on a trio of voices, an acoustic guitar and a battery of cajon and congas.

We are also proud that a good 85% of what we play is our own original music - the few covers we perform are resurrections of half-forgotten classics - our favourites being Georgie Girl (The Seekers) and Senses Working Overtime (XTC).

“Me and Mr Jones” have just released Skyscraper Eyes, an album of our music (with some songs co-written with and featuring the Norwegian bassist Bjørn Frengstad from The Sedatives). You can hear it at https://meandmrjones. bandcamp.com/releases. You can find our videos on YouTube, search Me and Mr Jones Chesterfield and, best of all, you can come and hear “Me and Mr Jones” (under the sultry light of Stan’s 60W bulb) play at the Derbyshire Food and Drink Fairs (Kedleston and, during 24th/25th September, Bakewell) and the IWA Staveley Trailboat Festival.

Article Advertorial

A local council upholds what we have known at Kip all along!

Jo Linthwaite (Kip McGrath) Barnsley council in South Yorkshire has become the first in England to shorten the summer holiday to five weeks. (Sunday Mail June 4th 2016). It said ‘’a shorter summer break was better because too many weeks off may lead to ‘learning loss’ and affect attainment’’. Its decision was based on ‘’sound research evidence that shows the maximum length of the summer break should be no more than five weeks for the best educational outcomes’’.

We have always known at Kip that children move ‘backwards’ after a long break for a holiday and that it can take a few weeks to get them back up to where they were before the holidays. That is why we offer a summer school during the last two weeks of August!

We open for 6 sessions in that time and find that our students hold what they have already learned but also move forward as well, so that when they get back into the new school year they are further ahead than many of their peers.

Going to school in the holidays may not seem fun to us parents and grandparents as we remember our own sun filled summer holidays, but today’s youngsters are under a lot of pressure and the words…’I’m bored’ are ones we often hear towards the end of the long break. It's hard to keep them entertained!

At Kip our learning styles are so different from their regular school. Our students are encouraged to tackle things that they think

they can’t do and to see errors as the chance to learn something new. We see a massive increase in personal confidence and a willingness to ‘have a go’. Our programmes are tailored to focus on specifics, so one student might be doing grammar and punctuation and another comprehension and reading exercises, or fractions in Maths; in effect an individual learning programme.

Another benefit of our summer school is that each student gets a FREE assessment in English and Maths so you know exactly where they start from in both subjects. At the end you can actually measure their progress definitively. That’s why so many of our students want to stay with us after summer school ends, they enjoy it so much, and their parents love their progress in the short time.

Parents, Grandparents, Carers and teachers in the new classes all comment on the difference in achievement and self-confidence of our students after a short time at Kip. We have an average increase in achievement of 2 years in just 6 months for our students, and for our GCSE students a full two grades upwards after a year with us.

So if you want your children to maintain their enthusiasm for returning to school and ‘hit the ground running’ in their new classes, then call Jo and get details of this year’s summer school and how to get your FREE assessment.

Community News Snailcycle LE2JOG Plus We received a note from fundraisers Gayle and Martin Andrew about their plans to raise money for Ashgate Hospice and Medecins Sans Frontieres.

"We are Gayle and Martin Andrew, two retired doctors from Brampton, Chesterfield and love cycle touring.

We are cycling from St Agnes on the Scilly Isles (the most southerly inhabited part of the British Isles) to Skaw, the most northerly spot on Unst in the Shetland Isles. A total of 1200 miles cycling plus seven ferry journeys. We will pass through the iconic Lands’ End and John O’Groats route and continue up the Orkney and Shetland Isles.

"We call ourselves Snailcycle as we are of a certain age and won't be the fastest- we shall take a slightly less direct route to allow us to cycle on quieter rural roads and we will be camping most of the time, carrying our tents - hence the house on our backs! We aim to do about 50 miles per day, and anticipate taking about five weeks.

"Our aim is to raise money and awareness for Ashgate Hospice and Medecins Sans Frontieres "Ashgate Hospice is well known locally, as a local GP Martin has experience of Ashgate’s services and without exception patients and their families have been full of praise for

the caring supportive staff and the care they provide supporting people towards the end of their lives.

Friends of Somersall Park Picnic in the Park 21 August 2016

"We're also supporting Medecins Sans Frontiers who provide essential medical care to populations in some of the most troubled parts of the world.

"They have been in the headlines recently in Syria and also in West Africa where they were the main people battling the Ebola epidemic.

"Currently they have staff in Syria, South Sudan and the Yemen at huge personal risk facing regular bombing of MSF hospitals and several staff have been killed recently.

"We are both doctors and feel humbled by the bravery of MSF staff.

"Our website www.snailcycle.com includes a blog showing our progress, and there are links to our JustGiving page, if people would like to donate."

As we write they've covered about 700 miles and are in the Scottish Borders, good weather and great people along the way supporting with several campsites giving them free camping and donations.

www.justgiving.com/teams/snailcycle

The Friends of Somersall Park are planning an event in the summer for all the family.

Their facebook event reads...

"Come and join us for family fun in the park! Bring your picnic and blanket and head down to Somersall for an afternoon of fun and community. Various sporting activities for kids of all ages...

Come along and help us bring the community together - meet friends old and new, play a bit of rounders, paddle in the stream... A fun afternoon for all who love Somersall.

Everyone is invited!"

The event is planned for 1pm and I'm sure the list of activities will grow and grow as the event nears.

Join their facebook group and let them know you're coming or if you can help with activities associated with kids sports or a summer picnic get in touch.

As I write there are 18 families going and 62 interested, so join them and make your plans.

Cucumber sandwiches I think for me...

Community News Holymoorside Preschool Serving the village for over 50 years.

The preschool at Holymoorside village hall was founded over 50 years ago by parents and villagers to provide a way of meeting other families and for children to make friends. It has since become a huge part of village life, sometimes with generations of the same families coming through. Of course, preschools have changed considerably over this time and they have kept up to date with the changes, training and qualifications.

As such they have gained a reputation for being a professional respected childcare provider.

The little preschool has always been a thriving and popular setting.

They are friendly, relaxed and welcoming and understand how important stability and familiarity is for children. "We are very proud of our zero staff turnover; in fact the team; Sandra, Diane, Brenda and Linda have worked together for 25 years! We are rooted in the village community and actively encourage children to be aware of their local and wider surroundings to help them understand the world" says Ellena Outram, committee member at the preschool.

"We are a charity based at the village hall in Holymoorside and during our recent (2016) Ofsted inspection we were awarded a “good� rating.

"We take children from 2 to 5 years old and cover the Early Years Foundation Stage with all of our children, keeping the emphasis on encouragement, engagement and fun. Our experienced team believe this is the best way to help the children learn and to nurture their emotional and personal development.

"Recently we had a week of celebrations, for the Queen's 90th birthday. We ran activities in such a way that our young children would engage and understand, whilst encouraging pride in their country and community. We hung flags and bunting which made the hall look very patriotic and really set the scene. We then carried out various activities during the week to learn about the Queen, her childhood, her life, family and the service she has given to the country.

"During these activities the children attended a daily birthday party where they wore fancy dress costumes including the crowns and cloaks made during the sessions using lots of different materials.

They played with the wooden castle and joined in role play

games while talking about what it would be like to live in a palace or castle. They had great fun working together to build castles with cardboard boxes and blocks to create tall towers which they then pushed over and started again! Finally, we made a large castle collage using coloured paper adding soldiers, a flag and the queen. So all in all a very busy, enjoyable and educational week, which we and all the children loved!

Community News Rotary Satellite: A new club for working people History has been made with the largest expansion of Rotary in Chesterfield for 36 years. A new satellite club has been established by the Rotary Club of Chesterfield, offering a new way of doing Rotary for busy younger professionals.

The first ten founder members of the newly formed Rotary Satellite Club of Chesterfield (Central) were inducted into Rotary International

by Chesterfield Rotary president Ian Gaunt at the club’s monthly meeting held at Brampton Manor, Chesterfield, on Wed 25 May 2016. A further four founder members are to be inducted next month.

New chairman is independent financial advisor, Peter Blant, who said: “My aim as Chairman is to get the group established and set the foundations for this group to prosper in the future. I have always been a strong supporter of the Rotary movement but have not been able to commit the time during normal working hours.”

“The new group has been designed to cater for people who work and may struggle to commit to a weekly lunchtime meeting so we intend meeting monthly on the last Wednesday of the month at 5:30pm so people can attend on their way home from work. The meetings are very upbeat with lots of energy and good ideas

Pheonix Band 15 Years of Success being shared. It has been a great way to make new friends and contacts from the local business community.”

“Our main objective is to support local causes in our community and make a difference whilst having fun. Next week we will be providing stewards for the Chesterfield Rotary organised Eckington Classic Car & Bike Show at Renishaw Hall in aid of Ashgate Hospicecare, Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice, and Weston Park Hospital Cancer Charity.”

Also attending the historic induction ceremony were representatives from Rotary District 1220, and members of the Chesterfield club, all there to welcome the new Rotarians into the worldwide movement of Rotary International and wish the new club well.

The last significant expansion of Rotary in Chesterfield was in 1980 when the Chesterfield Rotary Club was instrumental in setting up the Rotary Club of Chesterfield Scarsdale.

Business News Brampton Brewery Beer & Stuff We start off this month with some news of an excellent fundraising effort by Sarah, one of the Staff at the Rose & Crown. You may remember that as part of the St Georges Beer Festival at the Rose in April, Sarah bravely volunteered to have her long locks chopped off to raise funds for Ashgate Hospice. She did this and raised over £2000 for Ashgate. The picture shows Sarah presenting the cheque to Lynn Jones from Ashgate Hospice.

The Brampton Brewery referendum beers (as see on BBC TV!) have gone very well and have been brewed weekly, so they should be available in the final run up to Referendum Day - sales wise it is neck and neck. We'll let you know if the beer sales matched the result in the summer edition.

Talking of new beers - they have only gone and produced another one! This was showcased at the recent Chesterfield Canal Festival and went down a storm, named 'Brindley Bitter' after James Brindley who was born in Derbyshire and was one of the main Engineers involved in the early Canal construction projects. The Beer is a 4.1% Best Bitter style, a bit sweeter than Brampton Best and is definitely moreish.

The beer was recently delivered to both the Tramway Tavern & the Rose & Crown so expect to see it around for a while.

Garden 10 Garden TipsThings

Garden Things for July Words: Transition Chesterfield Picture: Robert Nixon Betts

3. Check for signs of disease on plants prone to them, i.e. blight on tomatoes, clematis wilt or apple scab, and treat accordingly.

4. Keep watering all plants in containers (indoor and outdoor), and feed them regularly. Anything in grow-bags (especially tomatoes) are prone to problems if watered erratically, so try to have a routine; aim to keep the soil moist but not wet.

Plants transpire water all the time, so don’t fall into the trap of thinking if the suns not shining plants won’t need watering – any breeze or wind will also increase the amount they use.

5.

There’s quite a lot to do in the garden around now, but pottering around it in summer is one of the rewards for the effort put in over the rest of the year - don’t look on it as work but as relaxation. As well as routine things like mowing the grass and weeding, here are ten other things that may be necessary (depending on what you grow):

A lot of vegetables should be maturing about now; keep an eye on them, as unreliable weather may cause some to bolt (i.e. form flowers and seeds) - harvest these before this happens, which usually renders them useless anyway. Allow a plant or two to flower if you want to collect seeds, which is what you do with peas and beans anyway.

6. Check tomatoes regularly and pinch out any 1. Now is the time to think about harvesting your shoots between branches and the stem, which first early potatoes. It requires a little luck and can appear with astonishing speed. You can good judgement, but if the flowers have dropped use these as cuttings; just put them in water it should be fine. If you try to lift a root too early until roots appear then pot them up. you may get a fraction of the yield that you would enjoy if you had waited a few weeks. As 7. Take lots of pictures of the garden, especially early potatoes don’t store well, it is better to parts which you think could be improved. That leave them in the ground and take only what way, you’ll have a good reference to use when you can use. Wait too long, though, and the you come to think about moving things or tubers may lose their ‘new season’ flavour. buying new plants, and with digital cameras it doesn’t cost anything to take lots of pictures 2. If you have to water, do so in the evening anyway! when there will be less evaporation and the water has a chance to soak into the soil. Using 8. There may still be some vegetable plantlets in a hose is more efficient than a sprinkler as garden centres, so it’s not too late to plant some the water can be directed exactly where it is for harvesting this year. But check that they're needed; giving the ground a good soaking not too leggy and and been well looked after – once a week is better than a less thorough one weedy looking seedlings rarely recover. every day, which encourages roots to form 9. Salads generally mature quite quickly, so you near the surface. It’s more important that fruit can sow some every week or two to provide a and vegetables are kept well-watered than succession of crops – ‘little and often’ is the best ornamental plants, some of which produce a way. Most leaf crops, spring onions, radish and better display when slightly stressed anyway. even beetroot can still be planted. Children like to see instant results, so use these as a way of introducing them to gardening.

10. If your strawberry patch is over three years old, it will begin to run out of steam, producing fewer fruits and possibly getting disease. Luckily, they will provide their own replacements in the form of runners. Cut about 10cm of garden wire and bend it into a ‘U’ shape. Use this pin to peg the runners into 10cm pots of soil and leave for about six weeks until they are rooted.
