Five Fab Reads Out In April Whether you’re longing for a Parisian getaway or simply want to indulge in a comforting slice of wartime London life, April’s book releases are sure to sate your literary appetite.

Other People’s Children

by R.J. Hoffmann Touching on one of the most delicate subjects of human nature, this moving debut follows a young couple whose fertility problems lead to further heartache when a child they plan to adopt is reclaimed by its teenage mother.

Exploring the complexities of a close family, they must make agonising decisions in the name of love.

Published

by Simon & Shuster on April 6.

Paradise, Nevada

by Dario Diofebi Steeped in the feverish neon wonder that is Las Vegas, this heart-stopping tale has all the thrills you would expect from a highstakes poker setting, with the surprising addition of depth and compassion for the four characters who are willing to

risk everything for the ultimate slice of the American dream.

Eloquent, comedic and bristling with energy from Diofebi, himself once a professional poker player.

Published by Bloomsbury Publishing on April 6.

Kisses and Croissants by Anne-Sophie Jouhanneau Detailing everything one would expect from a love story set in the City of Lights, including divine Parisian pastries, languid afternoons strolling through art galleries and of course, stolen kisses in the shadow of the Tour Eiffel, this is the ideal read for anyone who is longing for a continental getaway.

Published by Delacorte Press on April 6.

Instinct by Jason M. Hough New York Times bestselling author Jason M. Hough brings us this intriguing and heartstopping thriller which takes

place in the kind of American backwater town where anything can happen, and does.

It follows officer Mary Whittaker as she does her best to unravel several highly unusual incidents. It soon becomes clear that the townsfolk are losing their survival instincts and that Mary must fight to uncover the truth before she loses her own.

Published by Skybound Books on April 6 The Last Bookshop in London: A Novel of World War II by Madeline Martin Set in August 1939 as London prepares for war when Hitler’s forces sweep across Europe, Grace Bennett’s realised dream of living in the city doesn’t quite meet up to her expectations as she finds her day-to-day life blighted by bombings, blackouts and bunkers.

However, she quickly realises that her role as a humble bookseller may be just what the local community needs to find solace and light during a period where London was perpetually doused in darkness and death.

This April, it's

Stress Awareness Month How could stress affect me?

Stress is tension that can be caused by one particular situation or event, or a reaction to everything that might be on your plate.

Because stress can affect the way you think, feel or behave, it means that everyone can experience it differently:

How do I cope with stress?

Manage external pressures and triggers, so that stressful situations don't happen quite so often.

Identify your best time of day and do the important tasks that need the most energy or concentration first.

Get organised with to-do lists and break big things into smaller chunks.

Vary your activities by balancing interesting tasks with boring ones, or difficult ones with easy ones.

Take breaks and take things slowly: it'll make you more productive!

Develop your Emotional Resilience: the ability to adapt and bounce back when difficult things happen.

Is stress a mental heath problem?

Being under pressure is a normal part of life, but if you often become overwhelmed by stress, these feelings could start to be a problem for you.

For example, if you often struggle to manage feelings of stress, you might be at risk of developing a mental health problem like anxiety or depression.

Practice being straightforward and assertive. If people are making unreasonable or unrealistic demands on you, be prepared to tell them how you feel and say no.

Find balance. Alongside your more stressful commitments, make time for activities that make you feel relaxed, for example, taking a long beach walk straight after work.

Believe in yourself! Take the time to appreciate and celebrate your achievements and recognise how far you have come.

Chosen C h ar i t y

Despite the pandemic the Hayling Fundraising team have achieved a grand total of over £43000 in 2020. This funding enables the crew to continue to save lives at sea.

The fundraising total would be good in a normal year but to do so in 2020 is truly outstanding. Special thanks go to the Lifeboat Inn for continuing their meat raffle online raising over £5000 and to Sharon at Sandy Point Stores who sold Christmas cards raising £2040. Home Garth, the house on Havant Road lit up for Christmas and raised with Gift Aid over £2000, whilst despite lockdowns collection boxes held almost £1000.

Siri Young, Chair of Fundraising (pictured) said,’ As you are aware the RNLI is almost entirely supported by voluntary donations to maintain its lifesaving service and on behalf of the fundraising branch and all connected with the Lifeboat Station may I thank you all for your generosity and continued support which enables us to keep our lifeboats afloat and continue to save lives at sea.

To continue to support us go to our JustGiving page at https://www.justgiving. com/fundraising/rnli-hayling-island-2021lifesavers Want to join the crew?

We need shore crew and boat crew please phone Alan on 07749061220
