Stay Together Forever - MicroChipSmart & Get CHIPPED Now… NEW DOG MICROCHIPPING LAWS The new law is aiming to protect animals who may become lost or stolen and return them safely to their home.

From 6th April 2016 it will be a legal requirement for ALL dogs to be Microchipped under Government plans announced three years ago.

From April 2016, every dog in England and Scotland will have to be microchipped in a plan by the Government to help reunite people with lost or stolen pets and track down the owners of vicious or illegal dogs.

Microchipping for dogs in Wales became law in March 2015, while Northern Ireland led the way by being the first devolved administration in the UK to introduce compulsory microchipping in April 2012.

The Environment Secretary Owen Paterson also announced in 2013 that people attacked by dogs on private property will be able to press charges.

What does this mean for you if you're a dog owner?

Under the Microchipping of Dogs (England) Regulations 2015 – new laws that were made in February 2015 – it will be compulsory for all dogs over the age

of eight weeks to be fitted with microchips from 6 April 2016.

It is estimated that almost two million dogs are still to undergo the Procedure. Dogs will need to be microchipped and registered with their keepers’ mainly on private property such as gardens, contact details. All keepers, including breeders, must drives and private roads.

Up until now they have not been keep these details up to date.

The only exemption covered by the law if they are bitten on from the requirement is private property.

The Government said householders where a vet has certified in writing that a dog is unfit to will be protected from prosecution if their dog attacks a burglar or trespasser on their be microchipped.

Becky’s Movie Previews We’re well into the year now with many great films already behind us. There’s plenty more to come so here’s what will be gracing the big screen in May.

Coming Soon…

Bad Neighbours 2

former neighbour and onetime enemy Teddy Sanders (Zac Efron; 17 Again, High School Musical) for help. Now united with the fraternity stud, the trio devises schemes to get the wild sorority off the block.

Unfortunately, the rebellious young women refuse to go down without a fight, proving more out of control than the last.

With the premise the same as the last, there won’t be any surprises plot-wise but plenty of laughs are sure to be had, as well as plenty of ab shots from Zac Efron.

We can’t seem to go too along without another sequel and this month’s offering is Bad Neighbours 2.

The first was released back in 2014 and didn’t do too badly at the box office, not that reviews have much influence on sequels nowadays.

Life is good for Mac Radner (Seth Rogen; The Green Hornet, Superbad) and pregnant wife Kelly (Rose Byrne; Bridesmaids, Spy), until the unruly Release date: 6th May 2016 sisters of Kappa Nu move in next door. As loud parties continuously disrupt the peace, the couple turn to

Florence Foster Jenkins The wonder that is Meryl Streep is back in a new film about a New York heiress and socialite who embarked on her dream of becoming an opera singer with one glaring problem; she’s a terrible singer.

With the support of her devoted partner St. Clair Bayfield (Hugh Grant; Bridget Jones’ Diary) and pianist Cosmé McMoon (Simon Helberg; Big Bang Theory), they attempt to help her make her dreams of stardom come true.

Streep has had her fair share of singing roles of late (Mamma Mia and Into the Woods) so this isn’t too

much of a stretch, even if she does need to match someone who is tone deaf. Grant complements Streep perfectly in the role of a devoted partner who just wants to make someone happy.

End, Eastbound and Down) have always been outsiders. But when the island is visited by mysterious green piggies, it's up to these unlikely outcasts to figure out what the pigs are up to. Featuring a hilarious, all-star voice cast that includes Bill Hader (Trainwreck, Inside Out), Maya Rudolph (Bridesmaids, Sisters), and Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones), as well as Kate McKinnon (Saturday Night Live, Ghostbusters).

A great one for the kids and I’m sure a lot of adults as well.

When released back in 2009 the Angry Birds game went global in popularity and was the obsession of both kids and adults alike. Not surprising then, after the success of films like The Lego Movie, that a film version would be made.

In the 3D animated comedy we'll finally find out why the birds are so angry. The movie takes us to an island populated entirely by happy, flightless birds - or almost entirely.

Castle Street Medical Centre Bolsover‌

The Castle Street Medical Centre PPG held their monthly meeting on Monday 18th April with 12 members present and 3 apologies. We welcomed Josephine Reynolds from DCHS, and Elaine Johnstone and Dianne Radmore from the Bolsover Breath Easy Group. Elaine and Dianne informed the PPG how cold weather can have a detrimental effect on people with breathing difficulties. The group is mainly made up with people who smoke and who have tried unsuccessfully to stop but who still want to keep trying. Their meetings, in the afternoon of the 2nd Wednesday of each month, are held at the Bainbridge Hall in New Bolsover. Elaine told us how they try to make the meetings fun but also informative and explained how it can become scary in winter when you can't get your breath. The promotional event held in March resulted in them gaining 21 new members, a great result.

The chair gave his monthly report outlining the content of meetings he had attended and informed the PPG of issues that did not have a 'Confidentual' tag. There is still a HIGH DEMAND on 999 and 111 services. He discussed with the group the problems associated with finding the right Care Home for our relatives. There is a leaflet available called 'First Impressions', which guides us through the procedure when choosing a care home. Guy Freeland gave a report on the latest HCCG Network Meeting, where Clive Newman from HCCG gave an update on the 21c project. Clive also informed us of the latest news about the installation of the TV screens for our waiting rooms. The position is that there are to be 'site surveys' carried out at each practice prior to the screens being installed.

In the Annual Report, it was noted that only THREE practice PPGs had a 100% attendance at meetings, CASTLE STREET PPG being one of them.

Karen gave us a Practice Update and informed us that Dr Marie Backhouse has returned to the practice to

complete her final year of training and will be with us until April 2017. The addition of Dr Backhouse will give us increased appointment capacity. We will soon also be adding Dr Benjamin Wong to the team on a part time basis. As from May we will be offering a percentage of APPOINTMENTS bookable ON LINE. The appointments will be available to be booked from 8.00am, but we must remind our patients that they are required to set up their own PASSWORD to enable them to gain access to the online service. This can be done in person at reception where you will be asked for an identity document such as a passport ( photo obviously crucial), you will then be given your password.

This password can be changed online by the patient to one that is more memorable. Likewise, patients can now access their Coded Summary Care Records online, but they will require the consent of their GP as well as a password obtained in the same manner as described previously. Our GPs will have the FINAL say on the content of such records.

We are pleased to report that Gemma is back with us on reception after taking her maternity leave. We pass on our best wishes to Gemma and her family.

DCHS have now taken over responsibility for the fabric of the surgery building. HCCG have been informed that the changes will not affect our clinical capacity or GP services, they will all still be in place. This change will hopefully take some of the pressure away from Karen our Practice Manager.

The next Carers Group Meeting is pencilled in for Thursday 19th May, where there will be a talk from Rachael Elliot from Derbyshire Social Services. It is hoped to have someone to explain the pitfalls and legality of people obtaining the Power of Attorney for a family member attend the June meeting. They may also be able to answer questions relating to the legality of WILLS and how to make one out. On the subject of Wills,

there is a very interesting article (advert) in the Derbyshire Times dated Thursday 21 st April, which tries to answer some of the questions people may ask.

Following on from that article, I have obtained a copy of the Guide to Protecting a Family Inheritance from Care Home Fees and other Predatory third parties. It is hoped to have a copy of this for our patients to read in the waiting room soon.

One of our members Mr Geoffrey Henry will be attending the upcoming Safe and Sound Carers Support Pilot Group. Lisa Brightmore from DCHSFT popped in the surgery for a visit and guided tour. Lisa was impressed with what she saw, and I explained to her how the PPG members had helped the practice to achieve its goals to make patient experience better.

During her visit we were both invited to participate in the 'Daily Huddle'. This is a staff get together to look at the daily performance of the practice. For example, they will discuss how many patients had been seen, were there any issues relating to appointments, DNA ( did not attend), have all prescriptions been processed, have any patients been taken to or released from Hospital and many other health and performance issues. Our staff have adopted this 15min get together because it helps them to see how the practice is performing.

Finally, I have just seen a notice at Chesterfield Hospital informing Derbyshire GOLD CARD holders, that they can get FREE TRAVEL on Stagecoach buses before 9.30am, if they are attending the hospital for an appointment. They will have to show their appointment letter to the driver to obtain this, available only on the day of the appointment.

Bolsover Town Under 9’s - Building on Solid Ground Building on solid ground.

The date is set! On 16th May 2016 the new under 9’s team will officially form. It will mean a number of changes for the players. Their weekly routine will change. Training and match days are both going to be on different days and at new venues. They will leave behind some old friends and teammates and then also have to adapt to new ones. The routine changes are also there for the players parents who are balancing the needs of their child, the rest of their families, their work and their child care support.

The coaches are in a similar position. It is our first attempt at running a team. We are both newly qualified FA Level 1 coaches (kindly funded the club). It is fair to say it is a steep learning curve.

The training focuses heavily on developing players physically, technically, socially and psychologically. Each training session has to be meticulously planned to ensure the players develop each area during every session. The players are then encouraged to offer feedback to the coaches regarding these areas.

With John and I both intent on developing the players into good footballers and good people I am convinced that if we use this methodology then it will help us to meet our aim.

It has been a month since my last blog and lots of things have changed. The team is now beginning to form nicely. We have eight player committed to playing in the team already. We intend to have in the region of 12 players as the matches are only 7 v 7 so this is already two thirds of the squad. In addition we also hope to have enough players to introduce an under 8’s team into the club.

We have also made significant progress with off the field matters.

We are all but signed up to a well organised league in Mansfield, we have been provided with first aid kits, balls and other training equipment and our new kits are with the printers waiting to have the 1st magazines logo printed across them.

I never imagined that there would be so many different things to sort out to allow kids to play football! Whether it is planning their training sessions or

ensuring proper safeguarding procedures are in place. It is hard work and it has given me a whole new level of admiration for the fantastic work put in by volunteers across all sections of society.

Occasionally I have been asked whether it worth all the effort?

The answer is absolutely. One look at any of the players faces tells me everything I need to know. If they are smiling then it shows me it is worth every late night sending emails, every rush home from work to deliver training and each and every debate I have with 8 year children over who scored which goal!

People often talk about coaches inspiring children to love sport. In my opinion its actually the opposite that occurs.

Thanks for reading.

Barlborough Heritage Centre…

78 years on Barlborough Heritage Centre remembers the Markham Pit disaster of Monday 10th May 1938 when 79 miners lost their lives and 38 were injured.

Barlborough itself sadly lost 10 men and 7 more injured when between 05.30am and 05.33am a runaway tub on an incline derailed spilling coal dust into the air . The tub then cut through a power cable causing an explosion on the Black Shale Seam where 170 men were working 690 yards below ground. This dreadful incident occurred when the nightshift men who worked at the coalface were on their way to the pit bottom at the end of their shift. Rescue teams

were called out from Chesterfield, Mansfield and Ilkeston arriving at 06.25am to find that many miners were suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. The mines rescue teams worked tirelessly until 10.00pm on Wednesday 12th May, 65 hours after the explosion!

This was the worst mining disaster in Derbyshire mining history at the time.

On display are many pictures taken at the time along with Newspaper cuttings and mining artefacts.

This exhibition will be on view from Tuesday 3rd May until Saturday 28th June The Heritage Centre is open 09.00am – 14.00pm Tuesday – Thursday and

09.00am – 12.00 noon on Saturday.

Tale of Mortimer Mouse to raise money for… …Macmillan Cancer Centre

By Andrew Dempsey Two sisters recovering from serious illnesses have written and illustrated a children’s book, with all profits going to support the appeal to build the new Macmillan Cancer Centre at Chesterfield Royal Hospital.

Cynthia Evanson, 68, from Duckmanton, Chesterfield, was given a terminal cancer diagnosis in March 2013. Her only chance of survival was a six-month course of chemotherapy which thankfully proved to be successful.

Her sister Maggie Fielding, 51, from Hady, Chesterfield, is also making an excellent recovery from a serious blood disorder, diagnosed in August 2012.

Cynthia said: “The medical care we received was excellent, along with the very important love and care of our family and friends.”

Bolsover 1st

She continues, “I was worried that I may never see the birth of any of my niece’s and nephew's babies, but when my great-nephew, Oliver arrived, I sisters will be felt inspired to put pen to paper, create promoting it by giving talks at mother and some felt animals and a rhyming story to go with it...and the story of ‘Mortimer toddler groups, primary schools and various other community groups with all Mouse Messes Up’ was born.” profits going to help build The Chesterfield The book is aimed at children from birth to six years, Royal Macmillan Cancer Centre.

PETS CORNER - New Research In Dog Psychology…

There is lots of ongoing research into dog psychology and importantly how they relate to us as humans. Reading some of this recently it made me smile how much dogs are still learning at a pace to understand and work with us as humans. I thought this month I would share some of this with you.

It has been understood for some time that dogs are one of the only animals that can read and respond to facial expressions but the range of expressions they can understand apparently now extend far beyond what we originally thought with jealousy, empathy, fear, upset being easily understood. Moreover, dogs can mirror our behaviours and emotions so if we’re having a bad day or are upset our dogs feel this directly as well. So after a hard day shake off the tension and play with your pooch or both you and they might end up feeling the stress.

This understanding of our feelings and behaviours can

also extend to dogs understanding and mirroring our feelings towards other people as well. So however hard you try to make it look like you like the in-laws if your dog doesn’t warm to them he could have actually picked up on your feelings and be openly behaving how you are inwardly feeling.

There has been a quote around for some time that say “if my dog doesn’t like you I probably won’t either”.

However, there could also be more truth in this than we thought as well.

Dogs appear to watch people and make judgements on them. Studies have been carried out with dogs watching people being helpful, unhelpful and doing nothing at all when doing a task with their owners.

All categories at the end of being observed by the dogs were offered a treat by the person (helpful, non-helpful and neutral) and the dogs significantly preferred to take treats from the person who was helpful first, followed by the neutral person and bottom of the preference list to take treats from was the unhelpful person in the

task. So in fact if your dog does or doesn’t like someone there maybe something there you really should observe in case your dog saw it first!

Your dog will also focus and watch what you focus on. This was believed to be the case when food was involved but yet again studies have shown that your dog is more in tune with you than first thought. Dogs will watch and focus on what you look at and will react also as we said earlier based on emotions you display.

Finally, studies have also now proved what all us dog owners probably already knew which is a dog can see and watch TV! No wonder then given all the above that our dog is our best friend. In fact they possibly understand us better than anyone and quite literally feel for us on a daily basis.
