A MINING STATUE FOR DONCASTER If you’re a former miner or a relative of a former miner, would you be interested in being part of an iconic piece of art to celebrate Doncaster’s proud mining history?

Doncaster Council has commissioned an internationally acclaimed artist, Laurence Edwards, to produce a thought provoking statue, one that will capture the voices of miners, colliery staff and their families for generations to come.

The proposed art piece will be located in the Waterdale area in the town centre for everyone to enjoy.

Visit www.facebook. com/miningstatue/ to get a glimpse of the designs for the sculpture.

To help shape his designs, Laurence has met with local people from across the borough. The meetings have had extra significance as Laurence has sculpted the portraits of people from mining communities in wax

while they have told their stories. These will be cast in bronze and be a part of the figurative, bronze mining statue.

Twelve more miners are still needed to help piece together the sculpture.

If you are interested, please contact culture@ doncaster.gov.uk and you will be invited to be photographed.

Mayor Ros Jones said: “As a daughter of a Doncaster miner, I am incredibly passionate and proud of our mining

heritage. This is about our legacy – we want to celebrate our mining history by creating a flagship piece of art which recognises all of our mining communities located in the centre of Doncaster.

“The iconic piece of art will commemorate our past but also look forward to the future capturing the hearts and imaginations of generations to come.”

Help raise money to make the statue happen

A19 Doncaster Road Whitley Nr Doncaster DN14 0LW

A crowd funding campaign is also underway to raise £130,000 to bring the design to life.

People can pledge online at www.doncastersminingstatue. org.uk (no money will be taken before the campaign ends, and it’s completely secure).

For more information about the project, please email culture@ doncaster.gov.uk

TRANSPORT STRATEGY IS A BLUEPRINT FOR SHEFFIELD IN 2035 A blueprint for Sheffield’s transport network and how it can meet the challenges of a changing, diverse and creative city has been launched.

Sheffield’s Transport Strategy sets out a vision for the next 20 years to deal with the impacts of the arrival of HS2, the creation of thousands of new jobs in the city centre and delivery of new homes that people need, as detailed in the soonto-be-launched local plan consultation.

The Strategy spells out how Sheffield is a city undergoing significant change and growth. Not only is the population

growing and living longer, but more people are expected to stay in Sheffield and in particular, live in the city centre.

Transport has a key role to play in addressing future challenges whilst delivering benefits which can be shared by all.

Transport connects people to opportunities and services and helps people do business It contributes significantly to the wider sustainability agenda whether it is improving air quality or reducing the city’s carbon footprint, in line with the council’s recently-published clean air strategy.

The new approach sets out

how it is planned to make Sheffield easier to get around, better connected and for people to be able to travel safely and in sustainable ways.

Councillor Jack Scott, cabinet member for transport and development at SCC, said: “We can make Sheffield a place where everyone can access opportunities without mobility constraints and with minimum delay.

“Together, we can reduce the negative impacts of transport, improve safety and enhance quality of life. There will be some disruption and improvements might take decades. But these ambitious transport

interventions are necessary to help Sheffield reach its true potential.

“The stark truth is that given the challenges we face, we can no longer simply carry on in the old way. The overwhelming majority of trips are made by private motor car, resulting in far too much pollution and congestion.

“We must move away from a “car first” approach and give the necessary priority to the most “space efficient” ways of travelling. We need to make it as affordable, safe, convenient and as natural as possible for people to make the right travel choices for themselves, their community and their

city. This means public transport that works for everyone and safe walking and cycling for shorter trips.

“This is how we propose to free up the space on our highways for trips that are critical for our economy.

“Getting this right for Sheffield and building the great transport system our city deserves is a huge prize.”

The Strategy builds on the Transport Vision which saw nearly 2,000 people respond when it went to consultation earlier this year. Further engagement is planned should the Strategy be adopted by Cabinet. More work will then be undertaken to determine the multimillion pound schemes which will help deliver this new era for transport in the city.

Grease will definitely be the word on everyone’s lips this summer in Sheffield with the news that Motorpoint is to host a special drive in screening of the iconic movie this September.

The UK’s largest independent car retailer, which opened its branch on Europa Link in Sheffield in April 2017, will once again be the venue for a one-off themed Drive In Cinema – in aid of Cash for Kids - this year on Saturday, September 8.

Motorpoint is aiming to build on the success of last year’s sell-out screening of ‘Dirty Dancing’ by working with Sheffield-based Urban Entertainment to put on a special showing of ‘Grease’ - starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John – which this year celebrates its 40th anniversary - in the grounds of the seven acre branch, minutes from both J33 and J34 of the M1.

Gates for the event will open at 6pm and guests will be able to start rocking and rolling from the comfort of their very own car from 8pm onwards. Entry is £20 per car. Food and Drink will be provided by Sheffieldbased Bear’s Street Food while a special movie themed soundtrack will be broadcast exclusively prior to the movie. And, as part of the drive in experience, Motorpoint will be offering visitors the chance to receive a partexchange valuation on their car while they wait for the movie to start.

All profits from the evening will go to Cash for Kids, the Sheffield-based children’s charity, which works tirelessly to support children under the age of 18 who are sick, disadvantaged or in need of extra support.

AWARD FOR SHEFFIELD PARKLANDS STEP OUT SHEFFIELD & WALK FOR HEALTH Thirteen of Sheffield City Council’s parks and woodlands have again received national recognition at the Green Flag Awards, retaining the highest number of flags in Yorkshire and the Humber.

Green spaces across Sheffield and in the city centre are among a record-breaking 1,883 UK parks and green spaces that will today receive a prestigious Green Flag Award – the mark of a quality park or green space.

This international award, now into its third decade, is a sign to the public that the space is accessible, boasts the highest possible environmental standards, is beautifully maintained and has excellent visitor facilities.

Firth Heritage Park, Norfolk Heritage Park, Cholera Monument Grounds and Clay Wood, Devonshire Green, Peace Gardens, Sheffield Winter Gardens, Sheffield Botanical Gardens, Weston Park, Meersbrook Park, Millhouses Park, Ecclesall Woods, Wheata Woods and Tinsley Green have all retained their quality status and will proudly fly the Green Flag as a symbol of the excellent standards maintained within the parks.

As well as attracting those who enjoy outdoor leisure activities, Sheffield’s parks play host to many popular events and festivals, raising the city’s profile nationally and internationally. The British Bouldering Championships (part of Cliffhanger Festival) and the screening of last week’s World Cup semi-final were held at Devonshire Green, Music in the Gardens and Art in the Gardens at the Botanical Gardens and last week’s Tramlines Festival in Hillsborough Park plus fringe events hosted in both the Peace Gardens and Devonshire Green.

Two further Green Flags were also awarded to Manor Fields (submitted by Green Estate) and Wyming Brook Nature Reserve (submitted by Sheffield and Rotherham Wildlife Trust). Green Flag Community

Awards were also awarded to Grenoside Green (applied for by Friends of Grenoside Green) Firth Park Community Allotment, Heeley City Farm, Norfolk Park Community Garden, Wortley Hall Walled Garden (all applied for by Heeley City Farm) and Meersbrook Community Walled Garden (applied for by Meersbrook Park Users Trust).

The Green Flag Awards are judged by an army of more than 700 green space experts, who volunteer their time to visit applicant sites and assess them against eight strict criteria, including horticultural standards, cleanliness, health and safety, sustainability, heritage and community involvement.

International Green Flag Award scheme manager Paul Todd said: “We are delighted to be celebrating another record-breaking year for the Green Flag Award scheme, with more Green Flags awarded this year than last year. Each flag honours the thousands of staff and volunteers who work tirelessly to maintain the high standards demanded by the Green Flag Award. We are proud to have so many wonderful green spaces in the UK for people to enjoy, and hope that next year, we award even more flags.”

“Step Out Sheffield” is a completely voluntary group, providing weekly Health Walks in the Sheffield area, as part of the National “Walking for Health” scheme.

Each one of our 25 walks is led by a team of trained Volunteer Walk Leaders, and without their significant provision of time and commitment the walks would not happen. Since April 2016, when Sheffield City Council withdrew their support as a cost saving measure, the scheme has been managed by an elected committee of volunteers.

If you fancy walking, socialising, or even want to offer to help us out in some way as a volunteer, why not give us a try! For more information contact our helpline on [075 0563 9524] for further details.

Assistance dogs are welcome on all our local walks.

Well behaved, well controlled dogs are welcome on most of our walks provided they are kept on a short lead always. Please ask the volunteers who lead your walk about bringing your dog.

If you still need convincing, here are a few positive things that walking can do for your health.

Help your heart and lungs work better.

Lower your blood pressure.

Keep your weight down.

Lighten your mood.

Keep your joints, muscles and bones strong.

Increase ‘good’ cholesterol.

SHOULD YOU SLEEP WITH A FAN ON - WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY One of the very worst things about this year’s long, hot summer is trying to get to sleep when your bedroom feels like the Sahara Desert.

Even if you open the window, sleep on top of the sheets and forgo the pyjamas, it’s often so hot that within minutes you’re drenched in sweat and wondering if you’re going to get any shut-eye before work. Unsurprisingly then, the heatwave has boosted the sales of electronic fans. But some health experts argue that these gadgets can do more harm than good.“Sometimes, sleeping with a fan on in the bedroom can encourage dryness in the skin, throat and eyes, as well as circulate dust and pollen, causing allergies,” says Dr Ebrahim, Director of The London Sleep Centre. Asthma UK says that the droppings of house dust mites are one of the most common allergy triggers in the UK. Given that dust can cling to pretty much any surface, it’s easy to see how fans that circulate air can make asthma symptoms much worse However, provided you are well hydrated (around two litres of water spread across the day) and keep your home free from allergens by regularly dusting and hoovering, this should not significantly impact your sleep or long term health,” says Dr Ebrahim. “Carefully dismantling the fan and wiping the blades to remove dust build up habitually will also help, and if you’re really suffering from allergies

whilst you sleep, you may want to explore hypoallergenic bedding, too. Asthmatics and those that suffer from hayfever may find it harder to sleep in the summer anyway, so should be cautious when sleeping with the window open or a fan on.”

Electric fans can also have a negative effect on your eye health. “Most people overlook their eye health, thinking their eyelids will take care of them,” says Anne Malambo, of Feel Good Contacts. “Sadly, this isn’t the case; eyelids can be partially open when we sleep without us knowing, meaning our eyes are exposed. When you couple this with the dry air the fans circulate, it can cause our eyes to dry out. This creates red, irritated and sometimes puffy eyes, because of the unrest caused by the gusts of wind being periodically blown into them.”

Dr Ebrahim says that there are a few benefits to sleeping with a fan on. “They promote circulation of air through the bedroom, which is particularly beneficial in hot weather when people find the warmth uncomfortable and not conducive to good sleep. Most fans also provide gentle white noise, which is a type of sound signal that is calming but also drowns out background noise. Many people find white noise soothing and more comfortable than sleeping in silence.”

So would experts advise that people sleep with an electric fan overnight?

“Sleeping with an electric fan on is personal preference – some find it more comfortable than sleeping in stagnant heat, and whilst fans only circulate air the breeze can be cooling especially when coupled with a slightly open window,” says Dr Ebrahim.

Core body temperature needs to drop in order to promote sleep, so fans can be especially helpful during a heatwave – particularly in the UK where home air conditioners are not standard. “As long as the noise is not disruptive, you are well hydrated, and those with allergies are taking appropriate steps to minimise the effect of dust or pollen allergens, fans can be a beneficial asset to sleep hygiene. Air conditioning units, whilst providing cold air and regulating the room temperature, are generally more irritating to the eyes, nose and throat as whilst cooling, as they also draw out moisture from the room.”

“If you must keep the fan on, which is understandable in a heatwave, then using eye masks and moistening eye drops before bed can really help with eye issues,” adds Malambo. “You should especially take care with this if you are female aged 30-50 as you are more prone to dry eye conditions due to natural hormonal shifts in the body. If you’re taking care of your skin in the heat, be sure to place the same attention to your eyes and you’ll wake up in a much better mood because of it.”

FAST-TRACK YOUR CAREER INTO THE HEALTHCARE PROFESSION …

WORK AS A PHLEBOTOMIST! An increasing demand for skilled healthcare professionals has led to a shortage of allied healthcare workers, especially phlebotomists - the skilled healthcare professionals who take your blood. Demand is at an all-time high with hospitals, clinics and GP Surgeries offering a golden opportunity for that “longed for” career change! If you have good people skills and manual dexterity, and like the idea of working in a busy healthcare environment, a phlebotomist job may be just the job for you!

Many people enter this profession when they are looking for a career change or a fresh start and they often have no previous qualifications or experience in healthcare. Phlebotomists can work part time (usually mornings) but also may choose to work full time as well as weekends, holidays and bank work. Blood samples are usually collected before mid-day and then analysed in your local hospital’s Path Lab in the afternoon.

“We train people from all walks of life and all ages” explains Lauren, Geopace office manager. “We’ve had school leavers, shop assistants, receptionists, beauticians and dental nurses, as well as telesales staff, unemployed and the retired who are looking for a challenge.

We also have referrals from JobCentres, who can sometimes fund your course in full” says Lauren.

Once you are on the healthcare career ladder there are often opportunities to progress into other areas, such as working in the hospital path lab or other departments. Promotion is much easier once you are “on the ladder” and have some experience behind you.

Many Geopace students are now working as phlebotomists throughout the UK and a few have even chosen to work abroad where there is often a similar shortage and growing demand for this specialised skill. An interesting booklet featuring student’s “Success Stories” is written by the student’s themselves and looks at how they have made the move from wide and varied backgrounds to find themselves now working as phlebotomists. A copy can be downloaded from the Geopace website’s testimonials page.

If you like the idea of a challenging career in healthcare and particularly in phlebotomy then this may be the perfect move for you! The comprehensive training course last a full two days and culminates in the award of a nationally recognised and accredited certificate. “We practice taking blood from artificial arms”, says Lauren “and everyone on our course has a lot of fun! We get a great deal of satisfaction later on when we hear from our students that they are working for their local GP surgery or in their local hospital.”

If you would like to know more about phlebotomy as a career or to book a place on the course visit Geopace Training’s website at www.geopace.com

EARLY BIRD TICKETS FOR TRAMLINES 2019 PLUS TIER 1 SELL OUT IN RECORD TIME After the sell-out success of Tramlines 2018, which attracted nearly 30,000 festival-goers to Hillsborough Park in Sheffield from Friday 20th - Sunday 22nd July, the festival today confirms it will return in 2019 over the weekend of 19th – 21st July.

A limited number of early bird tickets for 2019 sold out within minutes of going on sale, along with tier 1 tickets selling out within hours of becoming available, proving just how successful the 2018 festival was. Tier 2 tickets can now be purchased from www.tramlines.org. uk still priced at an attractive £59.50 plus booking fee, and once again showing that

Tramlines is one of the best-value three-day festivals in the country.

The 10th installment of Tramlines Festival left its multi-space format behind to be held over one site on Hillsborough Park including four stages of music and a fifth new and improved ‘Into The Trees’ area. Guests enjoyed storming performances from Stereophonics, Noel Gallagher’s High-Flying Birds, Craig David’s TS5, Clean Bandit, Blossoms, De La Soul and Stefflon Don; a debut comedy lineup; pop up cinema; craft ales and a tantalizing selection of food traders.

Tramlines Festival organiser and cofounder Timm Cleasby commented:

“Sheffield has never enjoyed a bigger party than the one that took place in Hillsborough Park this weekend. I’d like to thank everybody who came and made it the special event it was. The sales for next year’s festival took us all by surprise and we are overwhelmed to have sold so many tickets for 2019 faster than any other year.

Sheffield’s never had a three-day festival like this before, the support for the event has been amazing and we intend to make Tramlines 2019 even better.”

A payment plan for tickets to Tramlines 2019 is also available.

The first month’s payment is free when purchased in July, and £7.70 per month, thereafter.

JIMMY CAROL APPEAL SHOW

Other highlights of Tramlines 2018 included hundreds of people taking an early Sunday afternoon aerobics class with Mr Motivator, tens of thousands of fans joining in unison to sing Noel Gallagher’s rendition of All You Need Is Love, and a Sheffield Police Officer taking to the shoulders of a festival goer to watch Noel’s performance, a video of which has gone viral with over 24,000 views.

The debut comedy lineup programmed by the Leadmill was a resounding success, with crowds spilling far outside the tent to catch performances from the likes of Henning Wehn, Sheffield’s John Shuttleworth, Tom

Tramlines 2018 attracted more families than ever. It saw them attend the improved Into The Trees area complete with film screenings of family and cult classics, party DJs, and arts and crafts workshops, giving a first-time festival experience to kids of all ages.

Festival organisers were hit with a tram strike over the weekend, but due to last-minute, meticulous contingency planning, replacement buses were laid on to ensure festival goers could leave site safely and without fuss.

Elsewhere across the festival no major incidents have been reported.

The presence of the

Tramlines Festival Director, Sarah Nulty, who passed away just three weeks before event, was felt across the weekend.

Bands, organisers and attendees honoured Sarah’s passing at the event, wearing ‘BeMoreNulty’ t-shirts. Acts including, Reverend and the Makers, Milburn, Universal Tree, Bang

Bang Romeo, Everly Pregnant Brothers and many more all paid tribute during their performances.

Sunday headliner, Craig David, spoke about Sarah during his set and encouraged the audience to sing along in her memory, which he later tweeted, plus huge crowds gathered to watch a special video tribute before

Craig took to the stage.

The move to Hillsborough Park was undoubtedly a big achievement for Tramlines and a step up the ladder as one of the UK’s best-loved festivals. Lineups and other news about the 2019 event are to be made in due course.

ANGLER’S CORNER

with Clint Walker

Having tried a method I dislike immensely last week, zig rigs, I’ve tried another one this week that I enjoy just as little… the pellet waggler! I’ve had a couple of the new Sonik Sports SKSC commercial fishery rods sent down to me, an 11’ feeder and matching pellet waggler rod, so thought I’d better get out and give the float rod an outing on a local club lake. I wasn’t looking forward to a day of arm aching, constant casting and catapulting, as I much prefer a more sedate day on the bank, but sponsors needs must…

Until last week, I didn’t even own a suitable float for pellet waggler fishing, instead having a tube full of stick floats, bodied wagglers and crystal quills, so after putting in an order with Premier Floats, I was delighted to receive a set of four floats of differing weights which would be suitable. In truth, the delivery wasn’t exactly what I’d ordered, but a quick phone call rectified the issue, and I thought I’d mention their excellent customer service as it deserves praise; if you are looking for a great company to deal with, give them a call!

I wanted to fish at around fifty yards, so selected a loaded float of 10g, slipped on a couple of float stops, and attached a pre-tied mono hook link terminating in a size 10 barbless hook with a pellet band. As soon as I’d arrived, I started flicking a few pellets every thirty seconds

or so, hoping to see a swirl as hungry carp answered the dinner bell, and after fifteen minutes, I noted the first bow wave as carp moved in… I opted to use Spotted Fin 8mm Premium Coarse pellets, available in a 3kg pouch, which have a uniform sink rate, and fast breakdown.

I didn’t particularly want carp grubbing around on the bottom, so these pellets fit the bill perfectly, and a single pellet was banded to the hook then cast out beyond the baited area.

I quickly fired out a few more freebies, and wound the float back into the target area. Pre-loaded, it cocked immediately, and then just as quickly shot out of sight; first bite! I struck to set the hook, and the new rod picked up the line quickly to connect with the first double figure carp of the day; easy! I was able to quickly shift the fish away from the other carp seeking the falling pellets, and swiftly got it to the net, lifted it onto the mat, removed the hook and returned it after a quick snap, all within a minute; pellet waggler fishing is fast and furious!

I commenced the regular (monotonous) cycle of catapult, cast, catapult, and within ninety minutes, had banked five double figure carp, and lost one to a hook pull, which wasn’t a bad return. Of the five carp landed, a couple of them already had pellet hooks embedded in their mouth, indicating that anglers weren’t really prepared for double figure carp. It’s well known that the fish in this particular lake go to around 20lb, so if you are fishing for similar specimens on your lake, then please gear up for them. I was using 10lb

line straight through to an 8lb hook link, which in a water with few in any snags was safe, so why do anglers still insist on using flimsy hook links and mainlines which obviously won’t cope? Beggars belief really. Personally, I’d rather a few carp shy off the bait than hook them, and then be snapped to leave fish trailing line. In fact, on a later session, I even had a carp in my swim trailing not only the hook link, but also the mainline and pellet float! Very poor angling by someone…

After two hours, I’d had enough. Pellet waggler isn’t really my style, I find it a

bit labour intensive, and when I’m trying to relax, I prefer something a little more relaxing. I’d caught enough fish to prove the rod, and if you are a match or pleasure angler looking for a pellet waggler rod that won’t break the bank, then the new SKSC range, coming in at just £39.99 should surely be on your check list. Match it with an SKSC reel too, and for less than £75 you have a functional, good quality set up for your session. They do the job well, provide fun fishing, and easily handle double figure carp; what more can you ask for?

MCGOLDRICK SIGNS FOR BLADES

Chris Wilder has bolstered his attacking options with the signing of David McGoldrick, following a successful trial period at the club.

The free-agent, formerly of Ipswich Town, has put pen-to-paper on an initial one-year deal at Bramall Lane, although there is a view to an extension.

McGoldrick has started the last two friendlies, against Bradford City and Mansfield Town, and

is poised to make his home debut against Inter on Tuesday evening.

The 30-year-old has a vast amount of Championship experience, including spells with Southampton and Nottingham Forest.

Last season, the Republic of Ireland international scored eight times in 24 appearances in all competitions for the Tractor Boys.

Speaking of his third summer addition, following on from Dean Henderson and John Egan, boss Wilder remarked: "I've continually said that we only want to bring in players who strengthen us and David ticks that box. He's a great link player, has a wealth of Championship experience and he may be coming into the best years of his career.

"David wanted to return north and this was too good an opportunity to turn down. His attitude and ability, not only in the matches he has played, but also on the training ground, is without question. I've spoken to a number of respected people about David and they cannot speak highly enough of him."

Come and Enjoy All The Footy on HDTV GOOD LUCK TO THE MILLERS!!!

Rotherham United defender Richard Wood has agreed terms on a contract extension with the club taking him through to the summer of 2020.

The club skipper, who scored a brace in the League One Play-off Final which secured the Millers’ ascension back to The Championship, has been rewarded with an extended contract after making 42 appearances in all competitions last season.

The experienced operator lead by example last season, often coming in for praise from boss Paul Warne for his leadership skills in what generally was an inexperienced squad of players.

“I’m really pleased, I am settled here,” Wood told www.themillers.co.uk.

“I am close to the training ground, my family are settled and at my age it is good to have the security. I am really happy. I am pleased to sign and I am really looking forward to the challenge of staying in The Championship.”

Wood began his career with Sheffield Wednesday and also enjoyed spells with the likes of Coventry City and Charlton Athletic before penning a deal with the Millers in 2014.

The 33-year-old has vast experience at second-tier level, and whilst he acknowledges the toughness of the division, Wood says he is looking forward to testing himself against the Championship’s elite once again.

“It will be difficult this season but we are looking forward to the challenge,” he continued.

“It is nice to have everything all sorted. I can now focus on helping the lads, trying to lead them. I am the experienced head in the dressing room so I just want to help everyone, and now I don’t need to worry about my personal security because it is all sorted.”

The Millers have strengthened at the back with the likes of Clark Robertson, Billy Jones, Zak Vyner and Sean Raggett all joining the Millers during the close season.

Jos Luhukay admired the performance of Spanish side Villarreal as Wednesday were beaten 3-1 at Hillsborough.

The Yellow Submarine displayed their attacking prowess to take the plaudits, although the Owls too showed their teeth in part.

But the Spaniards had the edge in the final third and emerged worthy winners.

Luhukay said: “The results in pre-season are not important to me. It is about the fitness and the performance.

“I was pleased with a lot of what I saw today but I think Villarreal are a very good side who play a different kind of game, a European game.

“In attack they did very well, they moved the ball quickly so we were up against a very good team today.”

Luhukay added: “For us, I felt it was important to give most of the players some time on the pitch and of course that affects the flow and tempo of the game.

“But some things are more important than the result.

For example it was good to see Steven Fletcher looking sharp and back on the pitch.

“We have excellent players, a talented squad, and when every player is available this will be a big positive for Sheffield Wednesday.”
