ith the news headlines spreading the word about ‘Britain's economy being in a worse state than we realise’, ‘economic growth slower than expected’ and ‘big cuts in spending’ keeping it local by supporting local businesses and our community seems to be particularly relevant. I hope that the new businesses still emerging in our area means we’re bucking the trend ‐ so let’s keep up the good work, get out there and spend our money as close to home as possible!

Behind the business: Peter Boardman Somersall Finance

T

his month I met up with Peter Boardman of Somersall Financial Management Ltd, you’ll have seen his picture in

S40 Local.

>> About you?

“I’m an S40 Local reader living in Walton. I’m married to Carmen and we have 3 children, 2 at Walton & Holymoorside School and my youngest attends The Sunshine Nursery. I moved here in 1993 when I was working in Sheffield for Royal Insurance. I found I got better value for money in Chesterfield than in Sheffield, and I can’t think of a better place to bring up children, the facilities are great and we’re right on the edge of the Peak District.” >> What’s your business background, how did you get into Wealth Management?

“I was working in retail management with one of the big high street names which required constant moves around the country as I progressed. I realised this was not an ideal lifestyle for me in the long term, especially when bringing up children, so in 1991 I decided a career change was in order and applied for a role with Royal Insurance who’s HQ is Liverpool (my home town), I was successful and they facilitated the move to self employment with their Agency Sales Division.

Over time I gained all the necessary regulatory qualifications and have held the Financial Planning Certificate since 1996. Presently I’m just one paper away from achieving the Diploma in Financial Planning which will be compulsory from December 2012.

There’s a continuous requirement to upgrade our skills which I feel is very important when you’re charged with the responsibility of advising clients on how to invest their life savings.” >> Have you been on West Bars long?

“In 1999 Royal Insurance, who at that point had merged with Sun Alliance, closed the agency division and they 8

helped me move to Independent Status. I formed Somersall Financial Management; I wanted the name to mean something and link us to the local community. In 2004 we were invited to join up with a prestigious wealth management group which we accepted. Our first premises were in Commerce House, within Hadfields Chartered Accountants offices.

Together we offered a range of complementary products and services and it worked well until we outgrew the space in 2006, at which point I moved into West Bars House in Chesterfield centre.” >> Many see finance as a necessary evil what appeals about it to you?

“There’s been a significant shift in the way Financial Services are provided, it’s no longer all about sales but about advice and a quality service.

Compliance with the financial

together for some light hearted fellowship, this is also a good opportunity for our existing clients to introduce their friends and family to the business.” >> Who are the team here?

“There is Michaela and Tracey in the Chesterfield office, and I also have support from a Business Development Manager within the group. Since 2004 we’ve accessed an exclusive range of great products and services and business has developed nicely.” >> Times are difficult for us all at present what impact has the recession had on your business?

“Recession isn’t all bad news for our clients as the record low interest rates have presented us with some great opportunities for investment.

Potential new clients have been seeking advice, sometimes for the first time and we’ve been able to help them find the best solutions.” >> You’ve talked about the importance of community, do you actively support the community?

“Yes I recently sponsored the fixture card for the Barbarians Cricket Club, and also the junior section of the Chesterfield Golf Club. Our group Foundation enabled us to make a significant contribution to Ashgate Hospice, and we also help out one of the local schools with their work experience programme.”

regulations has pushed up the cost of operation and we’ve evolved into the Wealth Management arena. I really do get a sense of achievement out of assisting people with their business and personal finances, it’s vital that our clients are getting the best performance from their investments in a way that protects against taxation and inflation.

I really enjoy the people contact, it’s been great to build up relationships with clients over the years, we regularly hold breakfast clubs and wine tasting events to get everyone Connecting Our Community

So Peter, the standard questions!

Q1. Favourite place to go for a meal?

“Calabria on Glumangate.”

Q2. Favourite place to go for a walk or escape from it all? “We’re huge fans of the outdoors and any opportunity I like to get down to our caravan in Devon. But if I’ve just a few hours then I can be found at the Golf Club!”

Q3. Best thing about the community around you? “It’s a great place to bring up our children, and being so close to the Peak District is really important to us.”

The Mayor of Chesterfield … Councillor Keith Morgan

Y

ou can expect lots of pictures of this man and his wife opening things, attending events and showing support for local initiatives this year.

In March I attended a meeting chaired

by Councillor Keith Morgan and on May 12th Keith became our Mayor.

Keith agreed to sit down for a coffee as I have to admit that I’m one of those folk who doesn’t really understand what the Mayor does and the role he plays ‐ here’s what I found out.

economic development and within our twinned towns. Twinning gives us the opportunity to promote Chesterfield as a destination through exchanges and visits etc, just visit Troyes where you can buy Cheese Factor cheeses in the heart of France.

I also have the opportunity to nominate a charity each year for which I will help raise funds and awareness. I have chosen Fairplay and Samaritans. Fairplay was set up on Chatsworth Road by a group of parents of children with disabilities.

The group supports children and

young people with sensory, physical, learning and behavioural disabilities and additional needs. My appeal this year will focus on raising funds to help with equipment for the new Fairplay Garden.

I chair council meetings, a post that exists above the party politics, but I do have final vote in the event of a tied decision should the need arise.” >> Is this your only job?

“This year it’s all about my Mayoral duties, having stepped down from my old post to do so. I am Councillor for

>> About you? – Family, where do you live and what’s your background?

“I was born in Sheffield in 1948 at Jessops Hospital. My childhood spent in the market town of Retford and on leaving school I started work at the General Descaling Co. in Worksop, in the Export Department. I met Pat my wife in 1968 and we moved to Chesterfield in 1980 where I was Head of English at Middlecroft School. My council career started out when I became a Liberal Party member in 1973 and was elected to Liberal Democrat Councillor in 1995. In 2003 I was offered the post of Lead Member for Sustainability and Environmental Services, then in 2007 I exchanged this for the portfolio for Healthy Communities and Leisure. 2005 saw me elected to County Councillor for the Hipper Division of Chesterfield. I live in Walton in the heart of the Hipper Division.” >> How do you become Mayor?

“I didn’t set out to become Mayor. In the Chesterfield Borough the role is a civic role, the offer of Mayor goes to the longest serving councillor. It’s not a role you have to accept and to fulfil my duties I have stepped down from other roles.” >> What are your responsibilities?

“Primarily as the Mayor I am the first citizen of the Borough of Chesterfield.

Additionally I work to promote Chesterfield within the UK in business, education, tourism, commerce, 12

Chesterfield’s Mayor, Councillor Keith Morgan Connecting Our Community

Ed: I’m slightly confused what’s the difference between the Borough and County roles?

“The Borough runs the low cost mandatory items and the non‐ mandatory items. They look after your bins, local planning, leisure etc, the County Council is responsible for all the high cost mandatory items such as policing, hospitals and health, education, highways etc. It’s not always a clear division and people are often not aware of who does what.” >> Rudy Giuliani (Mayor of New York) is credited for “quality of life initiatives” and being responsible for improvements and reduction in crime, is this something UK mayors can realistically achieve? “In some towns yes, but not here in Chesterfield. As I said earlier the Mayor is a civic role so the rules of longest serving councillor apply, in the towns where a mayor is elected by the community they have more budgetary power. We have 12 elected Mayors, the best known of which is Boris Johnson, Mayor of London.”

>> In your view, what are the best things about S40 (and Chesterfield)?

“Chesterfield is the largest village in the country, it has an intimacy and friendliness about it and there is huge opportunity for growth. Having said this it’s not a city, cities have an impartiality about them. Chesterfield is identifiable by it’s boundaries and despite the recession it seems to have weathered the storm well and be flourishing, and we’ve become a great tourism centre with 500 coaches coming in to visit the town.” >> What would you like to leave as your Mayor legacy to Chesterfield?

“Most people in Chesterfield know Ashgate Hospice and what it does. If I can help create the same level of awareness about the Fairplay charity I will feel I have delivered something worthwhile, it’s a great local cause and needs our support.”

It wouldn’t be right not to ask the standard S40 Local questions …

Q1. Favourite place to go for a meal?

“This very much depends on the time of day and our mood, we might go to Northern Tea Merchants for a morning coffee, Koo or Amelias for >> Closer to home, our readers come lunch or an evening meal at from Ashgate, Brampton, Brookside, Nonsolovino or the Poachers Rest.

Holymoorside, Somersall and Walton. Oh and of course there’s always the What’s on your agenda that’ll impact Rose and Crown for quick real Ale.” or improve the lives of our readers?

Q2. Favourite place to go for a walk or “I live in Walton and am one of S40’s escape from it all? readers, I support our local churches and regularly attend St Thomas’, I’m “I love a stroll round Somersall Park and am a member of the Robinsons governor at Parkside school and actively look to involve the local Bowls Club based at Walton Dam businesses in my charity initiatives. which is a lovely oasis set between the two busy trunk roads.” th On 24 June we’ll be launching a fund Q3. Best thing about the community raising event at Northern Tea Merchants, I presented ceramics from around you?

Having said this I am fully aware that as Mayor my horizons cover the whole borough.”

Things to do in the garden this July

W

ith the combination of rain, warmer temperatures and lighter days, everything should now be looking green and lush in your garden. Ten things to do this month include:

1. Make sure any new plants, hanging baskets and plants in containers have enough water.

2. Keep hoeing your flower beds and veggie plot to keep weeds under control.

3. Pick courgettes before they become too big.

4. Tie up climbing plants as they grow.

5. Whilst it's dry give gates, furniture and fences a fresh lick of paint.

6. Plant Autumn flowering bulbs.

7. Move garden furniture around regularly to prevent yellow patches on your lawn.

8. Give your beach, conifer and hawthorn hedges a trim, but hold off on any holly bushes.

9. Dead head bedding plants and repeat flowering perennials.

10. Keep cutting your lawn except if there’s a drought.

Raise the cutter height in hot weather to help retain moisture.

Thanks to Paul @ Ashgate Garden Care

New Business: Middle East Food

I

n the last few issues you may have noticed an advert from ‘Middle East Foods’? They are a new business who have established themselves in Somersall so I thought a quick chat might be in order to find out what they do and how it all works.

Kifah Jassim has always been passionate about food, starting at a young age cooking at home and for family events. In 1993 they located themselves in Chesterfield and struggled to find an authentic dining experience. “We’ve tried Middle Eastern themed restaurants locally and further afield, from Manchester to Paris and we haven’t yet found truly authentic quality food as I was taught to prepare it at home, so that’s why we’ve set ourselves up in business. All my learning is based on experience, and I didn’t want to run a restaurant, so decided to set up this personal service, preparing quality food using the best locally sourced

fresh ingredients, and delivering authentic Middle Eastern meals for you to enjoy in your own home.”

Sounds good and I learnt that so far they are exclusive to S40 Local readers, trialling the service and fine‐tuning to make sure they get it right. So far they’ve had some really positive feedback and have orders in place for the coming weeks.

choice below and have it delivered to your door (within a 5 mile radius of our home in Somersall), we’d love to hear from you.”

Know Your Dishes: “Tebboleh”, a Levantine salad dish of parsley, burgol wheat, mint, tomato, spring onion, cucumber, lettuce, herbs and dressing. One of the most popular Middle Eastern Salads.

“Maqloobeh” (or Upside Down), this is a classic and probably one of the most famous Palestinian dishes. Everybody loves it! Spicy lamb, vegetables and rice.

So are they a takeaway or is there more to it?

“Because of the service “Tabssi”, layers of fried slices of aubergine, we offer, we need you onions and tomatoes oven baked in a to place your order, at thick tomato sauce with various spices. least by midday on the day you require the food, and if you can pre‐plan that’s even To see a full menu, please give them a better.

As always it’s busy at 479 Chatsworth Road, and why so at present? Well another new business moves into this prime spot. S40 Local managed to stick a foot in the door and have a chat with the business owners Marcella and Andrew Kirk who might just be installing a small slice of France on Chatsworth Road.

>> What kind of store is it?

“MesAmis is an amalgamation of some of our favourite experiences from living in France. Our memories are of fabulous patisseries with beautiful chocolates and excellent coffee and tea, served in a relaxed atmosphere.

This is what we are bringing to Chatsworth Road.

Our “piece de resistance” is our very own Pastry Chef . Not only has Garry trained at some of the best Michelin‐ starred restaurants in the North, he has spent two spells at the 3*** “Ramsey’s” in London. He has catered in some exceptional homes in France; he has even cooked for a Countess, at

Connecting Our Community

New Business: MesAmis one of the finest, privately‐owned Chateaux in Anjou, where his chocolate mousse is renowned.

Fortunately for us, he is a great friend of the family and is excited at the prospect of this fledgling business.”

>> Are you local to the area?

“Andrew and I, together with our children Sam and Darcie, have spent the past 6 years running a holiday and hospitality business in Saumur, the Loire Valley of France. It has been a great adventure and we have retained a home there because there is so much about France that we still adore. However, it was time to come home and Chesterfield is home to us.

We were surrounded by beautiful chateaux but, whenever asked which was our favourite, we always answered Chatsworth House! Prior to living in France, we have built our own homes, worked as chefs and have even been employed by a well known airline for 11 years. All of this has certainly prepared us for looking after people, although we promise that the tea and coffee will be much, much better than on an aeroplane.”

>> What can we expect at MesAmis?

“You can expect the warmest of welcomes, although you won’t have to endure a kiss on each cheek French ‐style. We hope you will enjoy the ambience, whether you are staying to eat, drink or take away some chocolate gifts, pastries, breads or canapés.”

>> What do you do that’s different from anywhere else on the road?

“We have so many plans! Which will be revealed over the coming months.

As i mentioned, our menu has a very French theme; you can come and have a cheese board with a selection of French and British quality cheeses, with as much French bread as you can eat! We will be having promotions that offer discounts if you order in French and vouchers allowing you to choose one of our delicious truffles with your drink. We prize quality and value for money in stylish and comfortable surroundings. Papers,

magazines and free wi‐fi will be available while you relax.”

>> Why Chatsworth Road?

“For a long time, even while we were still in France, we have been planning this project ‐ but as we all know, location is the key. For us, Chatsworth Road is the gateway to some of our favourite places in the Peak District.

In the other direction, it leads into Chesterfield ‐ a great town that has everything offered by larger cities, but on a smaller and much more personal scale. The road has a great selection of businesses, which complement each other well. There is also a real buzz and a sense of pride among the local Chatsworth Road community. So, when we met Libby and Ian and found they were looking for someone to move into their spare premises, we jumped at the chance.

How often do you get to start a business with the help and support of a well‐established popular business like Libby and her colleagues at 479?”

>> What will your main products be?

“Apart from great chocolates, French style filled baguettes , pastries, platters and plat de jour, there will be speciality Teas, Coffee and yummy hot chocolate.”

>> Do you have any connections to local suppliers?

“Although our theme is French we are working closely with local suppliers that have a good understanding of French food and receive direct supplies from French markets . We have used fantastic local tradesmen, who have been very patient even when asked to hang something more chandelier like in the bathroom!”

MesAmis opens it’s doors on the 26th June and will be open 7 days a week for breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea. They look forward to extending you a warm welcome.

And what could be a greater incentive than cheering the lads on against our closest rivals Yorkshire in the one dayer on Sunday 8 August.
