Becky’s Movie Previews Now the clocks have been turned back the nights will be drawing in quicker as we get closer to the end of the year. To escape the cold, here’s what will be gracing our cinema screens in the coming months.

Coming Soon…

Interstellar

Not too far from current affairs, this film focuses on the ever popular topic of our limited resources on Earth and what can be done to survive when we run out. The emphasis is on the limits of food on Earth and when a wormhole is discovered, explorers and scientists unite to embark on a journey through it, transcending the normal limits of human space travel.

Among the travellers is a widowed

engineer ( ) who must decide whether he can leave his two children behind in an effort to attempt to save humanity from the now environmentally devastated Earth.

This film has a full starring cast that includes Matthew McConaughey ( e), ) and Anne Hathaway ( Michael Caine ( ) as well as being directed by none other than Christopher Nolan ( ) who’s reputation for big budget and visually stimulating films should make this interesting viewing.

The Imitation Game A film that has been highly received from audiences and critics alike, The Imitation Game follows the true story of British Mathematician and pioneering computer scientist Alan Turing ( ), who was a central figure in cracking Nazi Germany’s Enigma code during World War II. This in turn helped the Allies to win the war.

The story follows key moments of Alan’s life. It shows his unhappy life at boarding school, the triumph of his secret wartime work on a revolutionary computer that in turn was capable of breaking 3,000 Enigma-generated codes a day and the tragedy of his post-war decline as he was convicted of gross indecency, the now outdated law that criminalises anyone who carries on a homosexual relationship.

It has had tremendous success at the various screenings at film festivals, most notably winning People’s Choice Award for Best Film at the Toronto Film Festival, the highest award of the festival. ) Cumberbatch ( himself has been tipped to receive awards in the coming season for his portrayal of Turing. We also see some of our greatest British talents in the film, as well as Cumberbatch there’s Keira Knightley, Mark Strong, Matthew Goode and Charles Dance. This is a film not to be missed.

Get On Up A musical biopic for you now as this film chronicles the life of The Godfather of Soul, James Brown.

We not only see the years he was a huge star, but also how he got there and his difficult childhood growing up with an abusive father, a mother who didn’t want him and living with his Aunt who ran a brothel.

He began as a gospel singer, as many from the South do and had a spell in prison for stealing a suit; here he meets Bobby

Byrd who would also be in his eventual band The Famous Flames. He developed over the years in his band, even travelling to Vietnam to entertain the black troops.

Looking at the life of a man many only know as the larger than life soul singer, this film looks intimately at the events that shaped the entertainer he came to be.

Paddington One for kids and adults alike now as a childhood favourite for so many is being brought to the big screen.

Everyone knows the story of Paddington Bear, from the Peruvian jungle that has a passion for all things British and travels to London in search of a home. Finding himself lost and alone at Paddington Station, he begins to realise city life isn’t what he imagined. That is until he meets the kindly Brown family who offer him a temporary haven, thus giving him his full name, Paddington Brown.

And with a penchant for getting into trouble, this is sure to be a fun-filled adventure for all the family to enjoy.

November In The Garden…

As we head towards winter and the nights are drawing in fast, there are still lots of things to do in the garden.

General tasks would include keeping your garden free from debris and leaves, raising your pots off the ground to protect from frosts and aid drainage. If you have been using hoses and irrigation now is the time to pack them away and lag and drain taps.

In the greenhouse a thorough clean is essential to remove any lingering pests or diseases. Ventilate on warmer days to circulate air this will also help keep down diseases.

Autumn is a great time to plant out trees and shrubs these include hedging and roses too.

Plant your bulbs if you haven't already done so this will provide a welcome splash of late winter early spring colour. Continue to plant bedding and containers with some of the following which are readily available , pansies, violas, winter cabbages, primroses, bulbs, ivy etc.

Ashgate Hospice…

Peter’s scootin’ good idea to raise funds for hospice A gentleman has found a novel way of using his mobility scooter to raise funds as a thank you to the hospice that cares and supports him and his family.

Peter Hardy, from Holmewood in Chesterfield, decided to hook up a trailer made by his friend onto his mobility scooter and collect tin cans to recycle for cash, not only as a way of supporting Ashgate Hospice, but also to help clear up the streets.

Peter, 67, said, “I’ve been collecting cans for about three years now. At first, I did it for wild birds. I now collect cans for Ashgate from becoming ill and what I get from cans goes to the hospice. The more I keep doing, the better I feel. In myself, I feel better.”

Over the past few months, Peter’s efforts haven’t gone un-noticed and he now has people saving up their cans for him to cash in for the hospice.

“I get a lot of help from the public. They’ll bring them to me, put them over the fence and the bit of exercise I get does me good. I’m getting what I want out of it; it’s for them now that’s how I look at it.

“This is a big hobby of mine now.

I enjoy it when I go out, that’s why I don’t rush

about. I go out, I enjoy what I’m doing and if the Hospice gets something out of it, that’s a good thing.

“I’ve never wanted anything for nothing so I always feel that if you have something you’ve got to give something back.”

Peter wanted to thank the hospice in his own way for the care and support that has been provided to him since he started to attend their Day Unit in early 2013 to help with symptoms and managing medication for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

“The Hospice in itself when you go through the doors; it’s as if someone has lifted a weight off your shoulders.”

“When you’re ill and you go to them it alters everything; how you look at things - everything. They’ve done marvellous for me. I love going.”

As well as his fundraising, Peter has also discovered some new hobbies thanks to the activities he has undertaken with his time at the hospice, including glass painting and poetry.

Peter added, “I never, ever thought I’d do oil painting, acrylic painting and poetry. I didn’t like poetry at school because I never understood it. The poetry volunteer is teaching us to understand it, how

BUCKINGHA M INSURANCE

to put it together and actually how to write it. With what comes out, I’m right impressed with it.”

In addition to the activities that are provided in the Day Unit, patients primarily attend for medical and nursing needs based on their condition. During time at the Day Unit, a patient is able to access other hospice services, such as physiotherapy and complimentary therapy, and their time spent during the day allows a patient’s relatives or carers to have some respite time of their own. A donation of £54 could pay for a patient to attend our day hospice.

Alongside the day unit and a 21-bed inpatient unit, Ashgate Hospice nurses make more than 3,000 home visits and have over 4,000 face to face contacts with patients at Chesterfield Royal Hospital every single year. All of the services provided

by Ashgate are free of charge.

Running Ashgate Hospice costs £6.8 million a year. The hospice receives NHS funding of £2.5m so needs to raise a further £4.3m to ensure these vital services can continue to be provided.

Accessible Derbsyhire…

Following the sad news of the death of the Dowager Duchess of Devonshire last week, we wanted to add our tribute to the many that you will undoubtedly have already received.

As well as being the co-founders of Accessible Derbyshire we have in the past raised funds for several good causes in the county : the 'Thomas' Playground' appeal at Ashgate Croft School, the 'Pool For Megan And Her Friends' appeal (also at the school) as well as for Bluebell Wood Children's hospice.

It was through these very special causes that we were fortunate enough to meet the Dowager Duchess who gave much-needed funds to each of these in turn without hesitation. A private donation to the playground appeal was followed a few years later by a £5,000 donation to the swimming pool appeal with a further donation helping to fund the 'Golden Miles' book for Bluebell Wood for which she also wrote the foreword.

We both felt that these were not simply Charitable donations: they were her way of making a difference to causes affecting local people that she cared deeply about and took a personal interest in.

TENT KITS GROW LIGHTS VENTILATION SYSTEMS HYDROPONIC SYSTEMS SOIL & COCO GROWING NUTRIENTS LIGHTING REPAIRS FILTER REPAIRS

Through her generosity she showed that great wealth and great privilege can go hand in hand with great care and great kindness for which we, and the families and children she supported, will always fondly remember her.

She was a truly great lady.
