Thank you so much for the lovely feedback on last month’s front covers and articles. It’s always lovely to get such wonderful feedback – I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – it’s really easy to phone up irate and complain about something, but as a society we don’t bother to do nice things very often, seemingly. However, a few readers have taken the time to write to us and also call us this month and it’s been really lovely – so thank you, you are appreciated. It’s nice to be nice! This month we have the Macmillan Coffee Morning on our front covers with another funky new design style and Laura has written another cracking article. I had no idea about the history and what a wonderful legacy he set up – truly visionary & incredibly altruistic. He was clearly ahead of his

Dear Readers, I’m not the biggest fan of August, truth be told, so I’m quite glad to see the back of it in one way. Expensive holidays, lots of the team on hols, can never get a strong netball squad together! And it signifies the beginning of the end of summer. Throw in a few personal sadness issues this month and it’s taken over from Jan as the rubbish month this year! However, such is life, nothing is all bad and I went camping for the first time in probably 20 years. I mean, I say camping, I had a glamping wigwam bell tent thingy with an electric power point and a memory foam mattress but it still counts! Tell you what though, I could cope with most of it but the toilets…..I mean……do they do that stuff to their toilets at home or just turn into an animal when they are camping/going to festivals? I don’t want to cast aspersions here, each to their own but what is the maximum number of people you need in a group to turn feral, lol??! Anyway, a good time was had by all, have a read about it on pg 32-33. I also had a fandabbydosy time at the Commonwealth games for 1 full day of Netball games. Absolutely exhausting (and no, I wasn’t even playing!!) but I didn’t get to the 2012 Olympics so I’ve resolved, ever since then, to make sure I attend these sporting events. It’s great for the cities involved and I only wished that I’d managed to get tickets for some other sports as well – lt was so well organised and managed. So, I don’t want to be the first to say it, but as we’re promoting and giving away tickets to Matlock Illuminations this month – we are clearly on the downhill run to the man in the red suit month. I’m not sure what this year’s festivities will bring, bearing in mind the misery and the pinch we’re all experiencing amid this cost-ofliving crisis, which is imminent but hopefully this month we’ll have an active Government in place. Whatever your ‘team’ you can’t be happy with it at the minute – so we all live in hope that they exact the power to work in our best interests, which we choose to bestow upon them….if not, is it revolution time yet?! Asking for a friend?

Next Generation Home improvements, based on Butterley Hill in Ripley, are now in their 13th year since starting trading in 2010. The company specialises in installing high quality resin-bound driveways and patios, as well as maintenance free composite fencing and aluminium gates to the local people of Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire. Like many construction companies, Covid-19 and subsequent lockdowns were an enormous challenge for Next Generation Home Improvements in terms of supply chain and the necessary working restrictions. But the company has gone from strength to strength since then with many customers trusting us to undertake work on their property and being delighted with the finished results. Sales Director, Lee Goddard says “We are a local company that employs all our staff from the local area. We pride ourselves on working to high standards & offering unrivalled customer service. We understand the importance of treating every potential customer properly, from initially quoting for a job, through correctly surveying the work, making sure the customer is delighted with the finished work and also our after-care service. The majority of our work comes through recommendations, so if we deliver a high standard of work we often benefit from extra work from envious friends or neighbours”. Lee pinpoints the company’s key to success down to the unrivalled dedication & skill of their fitting teams and also the high quality of products that the company use which means the installations don’t just look good, they require no maintenance & stay looking good in the long term. The company would be delighted to quote on any customers work involving resin driveways, patios, composite fencing or gates. Simply drop them a call on 01773 303181

Somewhat fittingly, Douglas used £10 that his father had given him to set up the society. That £10, equivalent to roughly £1200 today, was the start of the Macmillan story. In the early days, they hand delivered food and coal to people in need, as well as arranging holidays and trips for people with cancer (and their families).
Time for a quick history lesson…
It seems like the Macmillan Coffee Morning has been around forever, doesn’t it? But would it surprise you to know that the first one was held in 1990, and on a very small scale? It did me.
The first home visits, offering practical support to those in need, began in the 1930s, and by the 1970s, Macmillan nurses were established, enabling people to stay in their own homes whilst undergoing Douglastreatment.
Macmillan had envisioned “homes for cancer patients”, and although he sadly died of cancer himself in 1969, Macmillan played a key role in the creation of the hospice care system in the 70s and 80s.

These articles are researched and written by Laura Billingham, a local content writer and author.
This year’s Macmillan Coffee Morning is scheduled for Friday, 30th September – will you be taking part?
In 1911 a young man by the name of Douglas Macmillan watched his father die of cancer; the pain and suffering he saw inspired him to found the “Society for the Prevention and Relief of Cancer”.
Fast forwarding to today, Macmillan offers a wide range of support to individuals, employers and health care Financialprofessionals.grantsare available to help with the extra costs living with cancer can bring, as well as advice on claiming benefits and what to do if paying bills is difficult. And, of course, simply knowing that there are people on the other end of a telephone ready to help can bring great relief to someone newly diagnosed. Email and online chat services are also offered for those of us who prefer the written word.
Coffee and Cake against Cancer Macmillan Coffee Morning 2022
With an estimated 50% of us expected to experience cancer at some point in our lives, perhaps that destigmatisation has been Douglas Macmillan’s most important legacy.
Since that inauspicious start, the annual coffee morning has raised a staggering £290million for Macmillan - £11million last year alone, but what does that money fund? How will the price of your coffee and cake on 30th September help people in the UK?
Finally, when we think of Macmillan, most of us will picture the nurses. These specialists have experience and qualifications in cancer care and are able to help individuals through diagnosis, treatment, aftercare and with ongoing support. Within this group of extraordinary individuals are palliative care nurses who help manage the symptoms of advanced cancer. They are experts in managing symptoms such as pain, sickness or breathlessness and can also help and support family members.
After 111 years, the charity’s ethos has never deviated from Douglas Macmillan’s original statement – “we stand for Betterness”, and has sought to overturn the stigma and dread surrounding a diagnosis of cancer.

Part-time music teacher wins landmark case in the Supreme Court on holiday pay calculations for ‘part-year’ workers
12 Don’t forget to mention Voice Magazines when responding to the Ads
www.hopkins-solicitors.co.ukinfo@hopkins-solicitors.co.u
Hopkins Solicitors on 20th of July 2022, saw a landmark judgment in favour of their music teacher client, Mrs Lesley Brazel, by the UK Supreme Court. This decision today follows her case being heard before an employment tribunal (in 2017), the Employment Appeal Tribunal (in 2018) and most recently the Court of Appeal (in 2019).
“This judgment gives clarity on the method of calculating holiday pay for people in Mrs Brazel’s position working on permanent ‘zero-hours’ contracts and who are not required to work every week of the leave year. The judgment will be of particular interest to termtime workers at schools, colleges and universities, as well as many other types of workers whose working patterns do not fit the traditional ‘full-time’ model.”
Our client Lesley Brazel, the part time music teacher said, “After an eight year legal process I am pleased to have finally secured a basic employment right in accordance with the law and as stated in my employment contract. I would like to thank the Incorporated Society of Musicians, ARAG Insurance, and the legal teams at Hopkins Solicitors and 3PB Barristers, for their outstanding professional, legal and financial assistance throughout. I am an alumna of the Harpur Trust and I have worked for them as a visiting music teacher at Bedford Girls’ School and it’s legacy schools for 20 years, pursuing a career which I am passionate about. Emotionally it has not been an easy journey. I am indebted to my family and friends for giving me the self-confidence to see this through and for their continued encouragement and support throughout this time.”
k 01623 782 783
The UK’s highest court confirmed the rights of part-year and zero hours contract workers to the full 5.6 weeks’ statutory paid holiday provided for under the Working Time Regulations 1998. They rejected the argument from the school that the entitlement of such workers, should be reduced on a pro-rata basis.
Thanks to the judgement, it will no longer be possible for employers to argue staff who don’t work all year are only entitled to pro-rata holiday based on the hours they work. Today’s decision is also good news for anyone working irregular hours or on zero-hours contracts. From now on, all workers will be due the same legal minimum of 5.6 weeks (28 days for full-time employees), even if there are months during the year when they don’t work.
3PB Barristers were instructed in this appeal by Hopkins Solicitors LLP to act on behalf of clarinet and saxophone teacher Mrs Lesley Brazel, who teaches at the independent Bedford Girls’ School run by the Harpur Trust. She was supported over several years of legal action by the Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM) and ARAG who provide legal expenses insurance to the ISM’s Mathewlandmark-brazel-case/https://www.3pb.co.uk/3pb-employment-barristers-win-in-members.GullickQCof3PBsaidtoday:
Example: The Supreme Court judgment ensures leave must be paid at the rate of an ordinary week’s wages (or if pay varies every week, then an average of all the weeks worked in a year). Annual leave calculations are based on weeks, as a person can work a full week or part of one. The law says that someone working a full year is entitled to at least 5.6 weeks of annual leave (28 days for anyone working full-time hours in a week and this can include the eight bank holidays). The judgment means that an employee working all year, but say, for just two days a week is entitled to 11.2 days a year (2 x 5.6 weeks, so 2.24 weeks or 11.2 days).
Partner Carl Wright at Hopkins Solicitors commented: “We are obviously delighted with both the outcome of the appeal and to have been able to clarify the law for the benefit of all of those workers who, like Mrs Brazel, work on term time only contracts. As a consequence of this decision, term time only workers will be entitled to the same minimum annual holiday as those that are contracted to work all year round”. You can find a copy of the full judgement on the Supreme Court website.

START: FELLEY LANE NORTH, UNDERWOOD, NOTTS NG16 5GT
1. The walk begins on Felley Mill Lane North, which can be accessed from the A608 (Mansfield Road) near Underwood and Junction 27 of the M1. At the bottom of the road there is limited parking but there are more opportunities to park further up the road.
This walk originally appeared in the magazines 9 years ago! We were all a little younger then, not least the eponymous Rafa but worry not he will return to these pages soon. In the meantime, his able deputy Baily Boo is here again. This is a walk has become a favourite of ours and it’s one we have done dozens of times, with a few variations as we discovered new paths. But this is the classic, in its original form, for you to explore and enjoy as much as we do.
2. Begin by walking through a green gate located at the bottom of Felley Mill Lane North and carryon down the bridleway.

3. After a short while you come to a more open area and the Path either branches off to the left or right. Follow the path on the left. Carry on along this path, up a small hill and through a small wooded area.
4. Keep to the path, through a white gate. It may be worth putting your dog on the lead here as you walk past the farm buildings on your right as there are hens and ducks, which some dogs like to chase.
6. Walk along this road, with the large hedgerow on your left, you will pass some buildings on your left and open fields on your right.
8. Continue along the path as it enters a tunnel under the M1. Shortly after the tunnel there the path will branch left or right. keep to the right.
10. Keep to the main path as it bends to the right, away from the woods. Carry on down the hill as it enters a wooded area and brings you back to the open area in point 3. Retrace your steps back up towards Felley Mill Lane North.
5. Soon after passing the farms, you will arrive at a bridge over the M1. Carry on along the track until you come to a turn on the right, which is shortly after an old gate and has a large hedge row on the corner. Take this turn.
7. Cross a horse stile by a metal gate and carry on along the track with the wood on your right. After a short while the path enters the wood and goes downhill. At the bottom of the hill you will come to a T– junction. Turn right.

IMPROVEMENTSHOME 30 Don’t forget to mention Voice Magazines when responding to the Ads Book Review Rose Tremain’s novel Lily immerses the reader in Victorian London –a place of thick freezing fogs, an abandoned baby taken to a foundling hospital, a brutal upbringing by the nurses there and her struggle to make her way in later life, including committing murder and living in fear for her life. The story has a real Dickensian feel to it, both in the warmth – and cruelty – of the characters; and the intense sense of the unfairness of life for many at that time. It’s great storytelling, vivid and emotionally rewarding with a brilliant heroine who you can’t help admiring and rooting for. There’s revenge and redemption – and a story that’s really atmospheric and satisfying. Rose Tremain is a really good writer and this is a smashing tale.

This invite was put on hold whilst the world mourned their social lives but then we got the call, YNot 2022 was ON, the cheers were heard throughout the Midlands from our office! As the line up grew so did our excitement. Bell tents were purchased by the Directors (Emily, not the camping type) and festival tents by the masses.
Back in the day, 1 year BC (Before Covid), YNot invited Voice Magazines to come and join them as VIP guests at their famous Peak District festival at Pikehall. Always happy to oblige, the Voice Team set about promoting the festival and preparing for a weekend of music and fun.
On Tour at
It has been 3 Years in the waiting, but Voice Magazines hit the festival scene at long last!
Michelle & Family, Danielle & her son, Lisa & Family and Neil and his Family all arrived on the Thursday afternoon/ early evening and made the most of it. They pitched up their tents and headed straight for THE BIG GIN (that’s the main stage, not the bottle!). They all emersed themselves in the music of The Kooks for the evening and soaked up the Sarahatmosphere.&herhusband arrived next, for Friday lunchtime for a bit of afternoon chill with Gabrielle before Emily & Liam arrived in the evening, just in time for the Manic Street Preachers and the Stereophonics
Saturday Morning, not entirely bright eyed and bushy tailed!, saw the Voice Team on tour, when we all fully embraced the 80’s films themed fancy dress for Saturday by donning our Care Bear t’s and tutus for the day! Who doesn’t love the ‘Care Bear Countdown’?! Most of us (mentioning no names of those not attending Emily & Liam!) made the morning workout with the wonderful Mr Motivator (what an honor), which was truly fabulous and he set us up for the day, ready for a day of music and dancing, rounded off with the Levellers and the Courteeners.
There were stages aplenty with a myriad of talent for all tastes but between the 17 of us we visited all the stages and were truly entertained for the whole weekend. The days flew by with band after band never failing to get us up dancing and singing, swaying, and laughing. Even Mr Blobby made an appearance with the show stopping “Raised by Owls” performing in the Giant Squid. What a weekend. What an atmosphere. What a festival. Only Lisa’s husband and daughter stayed til the Monday morning as the rest of us are clearly lightweights! However, the whole extended Voice Team recommend attending the 2023 YNot festival – if it is even a patch on the comeback of 2022 – it should not be missed!!

In these days when just multinationalfourbreweriesproducemostofBritain’sbeer,itiseasytoforgetthatbrewingwasonceaverylocalbusiness.
In 1577 it was reported that Ripley and Pentrich had 10 alehouses (in what must have been very small places), most of which would brew their own beer. In the early 1700s, Charles Horne ran an alehouse at the gates of Butterley Hall, then owned by his family. There was also a brewery, as the name indicated, in Malthouse Yard. In the nineteenth century, though, there was one commercial brewery in the town, variously known as Ripley Old Brewery, Greenwich Brewery or Queens Brewery. It was probably started around 1807 by the Fletcher family, one of whom, William Henry, was also one of Ripley’s first doctors. They seem to have run the Red Lion at one time, but later became “common brewers”, selling their beer to pubs. The brewery was situated on either side of Cromford Road, just behind the Market Place, where Amber Valley’s offices and car park are. At one time there was a tunnel underneath the road, so that the malt could be carried from the malthouse on one side to the brewery on the other without getting wet.The Fletchers sold the business in 1823 to their partner, William Kirkland, John Fletcher having moved to a new brewery at Cavendish Bridge and William Fletcher to buildings behind the newly built Greenwich House (now Zycomm). Kirkland went bankrupt in 1828 and the old brewery was hardly used until 1877 when it was rebuilt by John Woolley but closed in 1888. In 1897 the Smedley family bought the Greenwich brewery to produce mineral waters.Itwould be nearly another hundred years before brewing was restarted locally, with the growth of microbreweries, at least two of which are currently in operation.

GARDENS Perennials, the likes of anemone, euphorbias, sea holly, primulas and verbena can all be divided now to create new plants for next year. All need to be lifted carefully trying to avoid root damage. Some, like hostas can be pulled apart into clumps, others have obvious small individual plantlets which can be planted individually. Hellebores can be cut with a knife to five or six shoots per clump; large perennials may need two back to back forks to prise them apart, crocosmia produce chains of corms which can be planted as chains or individuals. Mix garden compost into the soil when planting and remember to keep watering them well to give them a good chance. Daffodil bulbs can go in now, tulips in October or November. Don’t be tempted to plant at less than the recommended depth, they’re less likely to flower. Get wallflowers in now for next year, they’ll flower earlier and prolong their Gardener’s Calendar Although the garden will still be full of growing, September is also the time to look to next year.
