Hello Readers

T

ime again for the build up to Christmas! It is has been another difficult time for everyone. For some it has been a trial of perseverance, for others a period of loss and deep sorrow. At this point, perhaps a moment or two of reflection is appropriate.

Many of our advertisers have continued to keep working throughout the pandemic and I salute them! Perhaps you have recently started a new business, or have grand plans for your current business. I hope that you have included advertising the fact to prospective clients!

As difficult as it has been for many Please stay safe and keep well, as we all humans, some of our pets have look to 2022 being a much better year, unfortunately also suffered. They have with more opportunities to reunite with found themselves bewildered at the loss our loved ones and friends. of their beloved family, through hardship Have a really or death. Cats Protection has an appeal Merry Christmas & for home for Oscar in time for Christmas. a Happy New Year!

As he is an older cat he often gets overlooked, but he has so much love to offer. I know normally, a cat for Christmas Until next year, is not usually advertised, but Oscar has Best wishes, been waiting for quite a while for his ‘perfick family’ as Pa Larkin would say. Is Karen that your family?

Two glasses, but if one is alcohol, the other should be water. This will both keep you hydrated and slow down your alcohol intake meaning you’ll be ready to start up again the next day.

6 Six grams of salt. The British Heart Foundation recommends a maximum of six grams of salt per day – about one level teaspoon.

Remember to count salt in prepared food.

10 Ten…thousand steps a day is an ideal goal to improve your health and your mood. Over 4,000 steps is also good though, provided they aren’t all between the sofa and the fridge.

Three French hens… or British. Eggs are pretty much the perfect food; they contain a little bit of almost every nutrient we need – loads of vitamins and minerals including calcium.

7 Seven swans a-swimming. Not only is swimming good for your cardiovascular health and muscle toning, it does it without putting strain on your body.

Four calling friends.

Christmas isn’t always non-stop happiness.

Whether it’s you that needs to reach out, or it’s friends that would appreciate a call, this is the perfect time to do it.

Eight hours of sleep a night. Some people claim to manage on less, but repeated studies say that eight hours is best for our physical and mental health.

11 Eleven maids a-milking. Milk is very good for you – everybody knows that. Although milk alternatives don’t have the same nutrition, if you are eating a balanced diet, plantbased will be fine.

12 Twelve o’clock. The start of the new year is when many of us start our health resolutions.

You might think looking at a price tag would be simple enough, but it’s not always as clear as it seems. When you see a special offer or a sales reduction, you have the right to certain information to help you make a informed decision about whether it’s good value.

The main law covering sales prices is the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations, which says any price promoted as a ‘sale’ or ‘special offer’ must also list the original price. Usually this should be the price charged immediately before the sale started.

The seller must have charged this price for a ‘meaningful’ period, usually at least as long as the sale lasts. This means shops can’t simply put a dress on sale for £200 for one day, then sell it at £50 and bill it as being 75% off.

One thing to watch out for is when the seller compares the sales price with a ‘recommended retail price’ (RRP). This is usually allowed as long as it’s clear this is the case, even when the seller concerned has never charged that price themselves.

VAT INCLUDED When sellers offer goods to consumers, they must always list prices including any VAT that applies. Sellers can only list prices excluding VAT when marketing directly to businesses and even then they must make it very clear they have done so. Listed prices must always include any charge that is compulsory rather than an optional extra: for example, car dealers can’t add on a ‘hidden’ fee for number plates.

HAGGLING With all prices, there’s no legal reason you can’t offer a lower price. You have the same rights to haggle in Harrods as you do at a car-boot sale, though not always with the same likelihood of succeeding!

If you negotiate a discount, you still have the same consumer rights to return a faulty product or one that’s not as advertised. The seller might exclude the deal from their normal returns policies if you change your mind, though they’ll need to agree this with you before you buy.

DISTANCE SELLING Whatever price you pay, whether ‘on sale’ or not, your consumer rights are unaffected.

You still have a legal right to a refund if goods are faulty, not as described or not fit for their stated purpose. You can also ask for a repair or replacement, but that’s entirely your choice.

The only exception is if the price reduction was because of a flaw the seller told you about, such as a scuff mark or missing instructions.

Where sales can come into play is the retailer’s own policies that go beyond your legal rights.

Many sellers will offer you store credit or a refund when the goods are fine and you’ve simply changed your mind. Sellers can exclude sale goods from this policy, though they should make this clear in advance.

When a retailer or service provider goes out of business, you may be worried about whether you’ll lose out if you’ve paid for goods or services you haven’t yet received, or you want a refund for faulty products. Let’s run through your legal rights.

Administration or Liquidation?

If the business is in administration then it’s still ‘in business’, even if it isn’t actively trading.

There’ll be an attempt to rescue it, for example by selling it to a new owner. While this happens, your legal rights are still technically valid. This means it’s still worth asking for a refund or return as it’s possible (if unlikely) that you’ll get what you ask for.

If the company has gone into liquidation, it’s definitely not coming back. You’ll need to find the appointed administrator and write to formally register your claim. In most cases you’ll only get a small proportion of what you’re owed (or nothing at all) as some creditors take priority, for example HMRC chasing uncollected taxes. However, it’s still worth lodging the claim just in case.

Card Cover Another option is to make a claim through your card provider. If you paid some or all of the cost on a credit card and the total cost was at least £100, you have a legal right to get any relevant refunds from your card provider under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act. If you paid using a debit card, you can often make a similar claim under a voluntary industry scheme called chargeback.

8

Holiday Cover Many tour operators are part of the government’s ATOL (Air Travel Organisers Licence) scheme, run by the Civil Aviation Authority. If you book through an ATOL member and they go out of business, you should get a refund. If you are already abroad when the business fails, the scheme should settle any outstanding hotel bills and cover your flight home.

Note that ATOL is designed for package holidays that include a flight. If you only booked accommodation, you’ll need to check if you booked through a member of ABTA (formerly the Association of British Travel Agents). If so, and the company fails, you should get similar benefits to the ATOL scheme.

Utility Cover Another industry with protection is gas and electricity. As many customers have experienced in recent months, when a utility supplier stops trading, regulator Ofgem guarantees supplies are uninterrupted. It will source another supplier to take on the customers, though this will be at a ‘deemed’ rate that will often be more than your tariff with the old supplier.

Ofgem advises customers not to initiate a switch until they are set up with the new supplier, at which point they can switch elsewhere with no exit fees.

Customers who were in credit and owed money by the old supplier will get it back from the new supplier, though this may take some time.

Customers who were in debit to the old supplier will normally need to pay back the money to the new supplier.

Blamed for everything from obesity to tooth decay, sugar has gone from being a symbol of wealth to an international health crisis. Sugar’s addictive qualities combined with its prevalence in everyday convenience food make it difficult to consume in safe quantities.

Thankfully, healthier alternatives are now available, promising lower-calorie or more nutritious substitutes to our favourite sweetener. To help you navigate the ever-growing world of sugar alternatives, here are the best ones to add to your shopping basket in 2022.

Honey Quite possibly the most popular alternative sweetener on the market, honey is packed full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. However, like table sugar, it’s also high in calories and breaks down to glucose and fructose, so unfortunately poses some of the same health risks.

Unlike sugar though, honey has been linked to improved heart health and lower blood pressure.

Plus, its soothing, healing qualities make it a great cold remedy.

Coconut sugar Made from coconut palm sap, coconut sugar is another natural sweetener to consider if you’re looking to lower your sugar intake.

While regular sugar contains no nutrients, coconut sugar requires little processing and so retains small amounts of iron, zinc, calcium, potassium and antioxidants. Although this makes it a healthier option, coconut sugar still contains the same number of calories as normal sugar, so should be used sparingly.

Stevia The holy grail of sugar alternatives, stevia is a natural sweetener that’s extracted from the leaves

16 16

of a South American shrub. Unbelievably, it contains zero calories while being up to 350 times sweeter than sugar, meaning that you need much less to satisfy your sugar craving.

Although it’s non-chemical, stevia extracts do have a noticeable aftertaste. However, it does come in various forms, including powder and liquid, so it’s worth shopping around to find one you like.

Sugar alcohols A type of sweet carbohydrate, sugar alcohols are processed from plant fibres such as birch, berries and cornhusks, and contain half the number of calories as sugar.

Don’t be deceived by the name; sugar alcohols don’t actually contain any ethanol – or sugar for that matter. Unlike regular sugar, they don’t cause tooth decay or an increase in blood sugar. Plus, they’re low in fructose too – sugar’s most harmful ingredient.

Erythritol, xylitol and sorbitol are just a few examples to look out for in ingredient lists. Commonly found in jams, sweets and chewing gum, they’re also used in sweetener brands such as Truvia.

Yacon syrup Agave syrup and maple syrup are hard to top, but the latest syrup to enter the market is that of the yacon kind.

Extracted from the South American yacon plant, this sweet, dark, thick syrup contains a special type of sugar molecule that our bodies can’t digest. This means that it contains just one-third of the calories of regular sugar, making it the latest craze amongst dieters.

Its high fructan content has also linked it to an array of health benefits, from helping constipation to lowering blood sugar. What’s not to love?

Pull on your PJs and make a mug of hot chocolate: it’s time to get cosy. And for that extra-inviting touch, just add a few irresistible items made from sumptuous fake fur.

Lift your interior with a brightly coloured, snuggly cushion. Burnt orange faux-fur cushion cover, £26, audenza.com. è

é Sink into a sumptuous faux sheepskin bean bag and you’ll never want to get up again. icon® Yeanling fauxsheepskin bean bag, £99.99, beanbagbazaar.co.uk.

ç Who needs glass baubles when you can add fluffy ones? Fauxfur hanging bauble, £2, habitat.co.uk.

Using faux fur in your home • Faux fur adds a sense of luxury and opulence without concerns about animal cruelty. Add it to any space that is lacking in texture for an instant feeling of cosiness and richness.

Affordable and ethical, this faux-sheepskin rug will also be cosy on your toes. Faux-fur rug, £34.99, homesense.com. è

ç A graphic pattern makes this cushion as eye-catching as it is tactile. Madison faux-fur cushion in rust, £10, bmstores.co.uk.

• If realism is an important consideration, look for longer hair and a variety of tones within the fur.

Natural shades are, obviously, the ones to choose, bearing in mind that creams and ivories look more lifelike than bright white. Faux furs also come in a wide range of interesting artificial colours and, in winter, brighter, jewel-like tones can add welcome notes of warmth.

To appreciate the tactile quality of fake fur, the bedroom is a great place to start. Faux-fur throw, £20; fur-trim cushions, £8; bedding set, from £20; all bmstores.co.uk. è

ç The gorgeously shaggy pile of these faux-fur Mongolian cushions will add texture, trend and a pop of colour to your room. Mongolian faux-fur cushions, £14 each, juliancharles.co.uk.

• Fake fur in interiors can take various forms, from small rugs to inviting throws, cushion covers to bean bags – and even entire stools or chairs.

A little tends to go a long way, however. Just a couple of furry accents is probably the ideal number, though at Christmas you may want to go a little more over the top and add in some fluffy baubles, stockings or even a furry tree ‘skirt’.

• To make sure your faux-fur rugs, cushions, throws and other items last as long as possible, always follow the instructions on the care label. Usually, you’ll be able to put them in the machine on a cold, low-spin, delicates cycle, with mild detergent, then press excess water out and air dry to ensure they remain the right shape. You can detangle and tease the pile back into fluffy softness, either before or after washing, by using a wide-tooth comb or brush.

Carefully setting and dressing the dining table for a Christmas meal is part of the ritual of Christmas Day. It is best to plan ahead, consider how to achieve the desired look and what key ingredients are required.

Glowing reds and golds with ornaments, gifts and baubles creates a dramatic table setting. Faux-fur stocking, £5; cable-knit throw, £15; fur-trim pillow, £10; stag ornament, £8; trio of frosted tree decorations, £8; all B&M: 0330 838 9000; bmstores.co.uk.

The theme can be simple and natural, in muted, neutral colours or sparkly with white and silver, frosting and tinsel. A classic look employs red, gold and deep green, while a modern effect might use

Christmas-themed, redand-white crockery for a warm and inviting table.

pastels or neons. Stick tightly to the theme so it all looks unified.

If you can hang something above the table, ideas include a selection of greenery entwined around a slim metal frame, a scattering of metallic-paper origami stars, a mobile made from baubles on ribbons hung from a wooden bough, or a simple swirl of fairy lights.

Similarly, wreaths, baubles, pine cones, even small wrapped gifts, can be tied to or hung from the backs of wooden chairs for a pretty look.

Place mats and napkins are important elements and napkins can be folded or rolled and prettified with additions such as cinnamon sticks, candy canes, mini wrapped gifts, tiny baubles, small wooden stars, ribbons or coloured twine. Finally, add crockery, cutlery and glassware. Use your best set arranged super-neatly: bowls on top of side plates on top of dinner plates; cutlery for all the courses; glasses for water, wine and fizz. The result?

A gorgeous, welcoming Christmas table.

If your dining table is not up to scratch, use a tablecloth to disguise scratches, stains and separate tables butted together – plain white cotton or unbleached linen are classics. Decorate with a lace, embroidered or scalloped trim, or opt for a festive all-over Christmas pattern. Perhaps add a slim runner along the table, either of ready-made fabric or with a narrow row of suitable decorations along the table – such as an evergreen garland with pine cones and berries, micro lights, tea lights in saucers, lanterns with candles, or floral displays.

An alternative to a runner is a centrepiece, perhaps a classic wreath with candles, an arrangement of fresh flowers and foliage, or containers with Christmas bulbs. Other variations are a grouping of lanterns or pillar candles, a pile

The start of a new year is the perfect time to review your patch of outdoor space to ensure it fills you with joy – even in January. You need either strong structural design that looks stunning at any time of year, or a wonderful array of rainbow shades, punctuated by architectural forms. But how can you achieve this?

Planting a rainbow Aim to provide something that fits into the chart of the seven visible spectrum colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Almost certainly, you will already have some green, but there are many different shades. The secret is to have one shade of green set off against another – dark and light is the classic combination. You can play with greens all year round, but January is the month they can really bring the show alive.

Reds for the winter garden Think about stems and bark as well as flowers, foliage and berries, and there is a feast of red opportunity. The fiery stems of Cornus sanguinea ‘Midwinter Fire’ or Cornus alba ‘Sibirica’ will set the border ablaze, particularly if you prune down your cornus in late winter or very early spring so that the new growth is pleasingly vertical. The rich mahogany bark of Prunus serrula, or Tibetan cherry, can look stunning against a backdrop of dark green hedging or the brown leaves of winter beech. Lower to the ground you might consider heuchera such as H. ‘Forever Red’ or H. ‘Paprika’. Then we have rhododendrons, some of which can be adorned with a blousy show of scarlet this month. Don’t forget red-

flowering evergreen camellias too – their winter flowers stand out against the dark green foliage.

Create orange and yellow sunshine in the garden With ornamental grasses in borders or pots, January will glow. Clumps of tall miscanthus with its warm, yellow-orange stems and seed heads will look dignified in January, providing structure and colour. Choose an orange-stemmed cornus for vertical accent and dot these plants around in repeated forms to bring the picture together.

Plant Eranthis hyemalis, the winter aconite, under deciduous shrubs to create a spreading, golden carpet and consider Mahonia ‘Winter Sun’, a magnificent structural shrub with yellow, scented winter flowers to transform a shady corner.

Beat the winter blues with garden blue, indigo and violet Blue fescue is an evergreen grass that can create winter blues and there are plenty of conifers and shrubs with steely-blue foliage to provide structure and colour, including Juniperus ‘Blue Star’ and Pittosporum ‘Wrinkled Blue’. Eucalyptus gunnii, with its strikingly blue juvenile leaves, can be tamed by clipping for winter beauty. For an indigo or violet hue, consider the conifer Cryptomeria japonica, which turns a pleasing shade of purple in winter. Evergreen heucheras can provide low mounds of purple foliage to line paths and provide a safe haven for wildlife.

Your winter garden is likely to be viewed through glass for much of this month, so help it to come alive with colour!

By Caroline Knight: Gardendesignideas.co.uk

The gift that keeps on giving There’s no better time to start giving to nature on a permanent basis. Most of us could improve our habits, so that we give more than we take.

Within around two years, new developments in England will be expected to demonstrate that their projects will increase biodiversity by at least ten per cent. Known as Biodiversity Net Gain, this is a big change from what happens at the moment. The new Environment Bill will make it necessary for developers to use ecological features and environmental enhancements to protect and improve existing natural habitat and green infrastructure.

Anyone with a garden can start right away, as we should all be nurturing nature so that biodiversity can triumph. You need to select plants with ample benefits for insects, allow wood piles and untidy areas to become part of the border, and use vertical fences and walls for further planting.

Best plants for wildlife Most gardens have room for a tree, if only a small one.

Trees and shrubs can support a remarkable number of living things, so if you only have time to plant just one thing in your garden, make it a tree, a shrub or something that provides positive benefits for small creatures. If you have a little more time, a mixed hedge is just about the best you can offer wildlife.

Betula: there are 521 species of invertebrates that are known to feed on birch trees and more than 100 of these are exclusive to that particular type of tree.

Sorbus, the rowan tree: provides food for at least 160

16 24 24

species of insect and, of course, birds and small mammals love the berries.

Malus, the native crab apple: provides homes for at least 90 insect species. Many different insects visit the spring blossom, then birds and other creatures eat the fruits. Even ornamental varieties of this delightful tree provide rich biodiversity benefits.

Amelanchier, the June berry or serviceberry tree: has something to offer wildlife during several seasons. Early spring flowers for pollinators make this small tree look like a white cloud. It also provides multiple nesting opportunities for birds and juicy berries during the late summer.

Conifers: really are worth having! Some have earned negative press over the years but this doesn’t detract from their value to wildlife. There’s probably no better tree for providing nesting sites and protection for a wide range of creatures.

Flowering shrubs and perennials: choose single flowers over double, every time. They have an open shape that allows access for the pollinators and nectar-drinkers.

Look for yellow stamens within a flower; these will support insects.

Purple and blue flowers are best for bees! buddleia, catmint, lavender, pulmonaria, penstemon, allium and purpleflowering hardy geraniums can all be seen clearly. Ensure there is something flowering from early spring right through to autumn and even winter.

Butterflies love hebes, sedum (Hylotelephium varieties), Verbena bonariensis, Origanum, Erysimum ‘Bowles Mauve’, buddleia, scabious and many wild flowers such as knapweed.

“Happy Christmas, Dad.” Molly, laden with bags of gifts, gave her father a hug.

“Before we go in, I need a quiet word with you about your mother.” Her father glanced nervously over his shoulder.

“Why?” Molly frowned. Then she heard it, a low mournful braying. “That’s funny,” she said, “I thought I heard a donkey.”

“You did.” He grimaced. “It’s under the carport.”

There, next to the bins, was an old grey donkey regarding them balefully.

“Are you alright there fella?” Molly approached the animal cautiously. “What’s it doing here?”

“It just appeared here.” He shrugged helplessly.

“And now I’m stuck with it.”

“Is she coming out?” he asked in alarm, just as Molly’s mum appeared on the back doorstep.

“Happy Christmas, darling.” She hugged her daughter warmly. “How do you like my present from your dad?”

“He’s very chatty,” Molly said brightly.

“I’m going to call him Gabriel.” Her mother stroked the donkey’s ears.

“After the angel.”

“You can’t keep a stray donkey.” Molly was horrified.

“It’s probably escaped from the donkey sanctuary in the village, have you called them?”

“Very festive,” Molly agreed. “He does look hungry though.”

“There’s carrots in the shed.” Her mother was forever practical. “Be a love Jim, nip and fetch them?”

“I was about to,” he said, shivering in his Christmas jumper. “But then your mother saw it.”

“And?” Molly had an awful feeling she knew where this was going. Molly’s mum loved donkeys. Over the years they’d bought her donkey tea towels, a donkey charm for her bracelet and a donkey teapot. Molly had even bought her, yet to be unwrapped, a donkeyshaped cushion for her armchair.

“Mum thinks this is her Christmas present,” Molly said flatly. “Doesn’t she?”

“She might have got that impression,” her father said sulkily. “And she seemed so thrilled, I didn’t want to disappoint her.”

“You’ll have to tell her sometime,” Molly insisted.

“There’ll be people looking for it.” The donkey brayed softly as though in agreement.

“How can I?” he protested weakly. “She said it’s just what she’s always wanted.”

Rates her your real Christmas Advertiser’s Guide “Why don’t you just give present instead?” Molly suggested. “What have you bought her?”

Molly’s father sloped off up the garden path, no doubt glad to get away.

“Don’t tell your dad, but I’ve called the donkey sanctuary,” her mother confided quietly. “They’re sending someone to fetch him now.”

“You knew it wasn’t your Christmas gift?” Molly felt lost. “Why pretend?”

“I saw your father wrapping those awful mugs.”

Her mother laughed. “So I thought I’d wind him up a bit.”

“Awful?” Molly was shocked. “But you love donkeys!”

“You know, you can have too much of a good thing.” Her mother raised an eyebrow. “Hopefully no one will dare buy me another donkey-themed present after this.”

• Chocolate: Chocolate is the most common poisoning we see at Christmas and it can be fatal. The severity does depend on a few things, such as the cocoa content (dark chocolate is the worst) the amount eaten and the size of your dog, so always call us for advice. Try to avoid chocolate and sweet decorations on your tree.

• Blue Cheese: Although some cheese can be fine for dogs in small amounts, dogs are extremely sensitive to the additives in blue cheese. Blue cheese contains roquefortine C which is a type of fungi and can cause myotoxicity in dogs. The most common symptoms can be twitching, sensitivity to light, panting, increased temperature and sometimes more severe seizures.

• Christmas cake and Christmas pudding: Christmas cakes are full of Raisins (and sometimes alcohol) both not good for your dog or cat. Raisins and grapes can cause kidney failure and we always recommend seeking advice, even if your dog only has a few.

• Garlic, onions, leeks and chives: These are commonly used ingredients in Christmas cooking, such as stuffing.

All members of the Allium family, they can cause damage to red blood cells in both cats and dogs and can cause reduced oxygen delivery to tissues, symptoms vary but include increase breathing, increase in heart rate and gut problems.

Why not make your dog his own Christmas treat – Ginger bread Christmas cookies 4 tablespoons honey 1 cup water ¼ cup vegetable oil 6 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoons cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground cloves 2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger or one tsp. of dried powder ginger Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Next you will need two bowls: mix the honey, water, and oil in the medium bowl. In the other mix the dry ingredients flour, the baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. Then slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.

Make sure you combine them well.

Divide this dough in four balls, wrap each ball in cellophane wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours (or freeze them for 1 – 2 hours).

After the dough is cold, lightly flour your surface and roll the dough out into about 1/4” thickness.

Now cut the dough out into fun shapes, such as Gingerbread men. You can also forget about shapes, and use a pizza cutter and make the cookies into squares and strips, depending on what you want to do. Bake for around 20 – 25 minutes, until the cookies start to get brown.

If you are at all concerned over the Christmas period please do not hesitate to contact us at the Aspen Veterinary Surgery on 020 8399 6437 or visit our website www.aspenvets. co.uk.

We would like to take this opportunity to also wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

There was a real boom in puppy sales during the Coronavirus pandemic and for many dogs this will be their first Christmas. Josh Lyle, boss of Christmas tree supplier Pines and Needles, has shared his top tips to keep your Christmas tree - and your pooch - safe during the festivities.

Height If you have a very young puppy or a very excitable dog in general, consider getting a smaller tree and placing it on a side table. If you really want to keep your bigger tree, secure it to the wall using hooks.

should go higher up on the tree so your dog doesn’t go for them. Apart from the loss of your lovely decorations, they could be a choking hazard or cause paw or mouth injuries.

Pines and Needles deliver real British-grown fir Christmas trees to homes across the UK. They also have more than 30 outdoor stores across the country.

For more information visit pinesandneedles.com

Start Naked Before you decorate your Christmas tree, leave it up for a few days so that your pooch can get used to having a tree in the house. That way they’ll be less interested in it once it’s decorated.

Electrical wires You need to be really careful with any electrical wires leading from your tree to a plug socket. Not only could your pup get tangled in them but there’s also a risk of electric shock if they’re a chewer.

Ornaments Any fragile or particularly sentimental ornaments

Some of the cleverest tech is also very simple.

Take the Meater, for example. It’s a thermometer with a built-in Bluetooth connection that sends temperature information to your phone and rings an alarm when it’s time to take your roast out of the oven or barbecue; its case doubles as a charger so it’s always ready to help. ngiseD & tamroF

Technology has revitalised lots of devices. The Panasonic SD-YR2550SXC is a newer version of BBC Good Food’s favourite bread maker, with programmes not just for bread but for pasta and pizza dough and cake too, while the £22 Stirr gives the humble wooden spoon an upgrade: it’s an automatic stirrer you put in your pot to prevent your soup sticking or your gravy getting lumpy.

If you prefer do-everything devices, you’ll love the Vitamix. It’s not so much a gadget as an entire food preparation system that’s capable of doing pretty much anything: weighing ingredients, blending vegetables, grinding spices, boiling and simmering, kneading dough, whisking sauces, grating vegetables and cheese, chopping meat, caramelising onions and much more.

Two kinds of device have become incredibly popular in the last few years: the Instant Pot and the air fryer. The former is a programmable onepot electric pressure cooker that can do multiple kinds of cooking: slow cooking, rice cooking, steaming, sautéing, yoghurt making, soup making and much more, and with prices under £60 for the entry level model it’s a brilliant buy.

An air fryer uses heat and air to get the same effects as deep frying without the oil: instead of immersing the food in a vat of boiling oil you just give it a little spray with cooking oil. The results are superb for almost everything apart from wet batters, which tend to fall off, and there are stacks of models: our current favourite, Sage’s The Smart Oven, is an air fryer, oven, grill, toaster, pizza oven, slow cooker and much more.

You can even get an Instant Pot with a second lid that turns it into an air fryer: the Instant Pot Duo Crisp & Air Fryer is currently around £199.

Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 If you haven’t tried Instant Pot boiled eggs you don’t know what you’re missing. It’s also great for making soup, stews, chilli, rice and even yoghurt. £59, Amazon.co.uk

Panasonic SD-YR2550SXC There are bread makers, and then there are bread makers that can also make cakes and pizza dough and pasta dough. If you can bake it, this Panasonic can make it. £199, johnlewis.com

Sage The Smart Oven This brilliant multi-cooker is great for small spaces because it does so much: it’s a grill, an oven, an air fryer, a toaster, a food warmer, a pizza oven and more. £249, sageappliances.com

Stirr Say goodbye to the tyranny of pots that need constant stirring: Stirr does it for you so you can do something more fun while your sauce thickens or your soup cooks. £21.99, uutensil.com

Thermomix It’s not cheap but when you consider all the things the Thermomix can do, from weighing and chopping ingredients to sautéing and even frying, it’s incredibly useful. £1,099, vorwerk.co.uk

Classic devices given a high-tech reboot We love our digital devices, our smart bulbs ediuG s’resitrevdA setaR and our personal digital assistants.

But sometimes we wish our various gadgets and gizmos had a bit more personality. In the future, few of us are likely to look back on our Amazon Echos with the nostalgia we have for the Sony Walkman, and digital timekeeping is never going to be as exciting as watching something pop out of a cuckoo clock. So we’re delighted to see some firms embracing modern technology with a distinctly retro twist. sraeY 2 rof desaercnI t’nevaH secirP ruO - tsiL ecirP

GPO 746 retro phone

Roberts is a great example of that. The £229 Revival iStream 3 looks like a proper oldschool AM radio, complete with faux-leather covering and a distinctive golden grille. It’s beautiful and wonderfully old-fashioned, but it’s packed with the latest digital radio tech: it can play DAB radio and stream from the likes of Spotify and TIDAL. It even works with Alexa.

Vinyl has been making a comeback for some years now and there are some very retrolooking turntables available, but it might be sensible to stick with something less tacky, such as the Sony PS-LX310BT Bluetooth Turntable. This £194 turntable has proper hi-fi heritage, looks like it was made in 1970 and streams wirelessly to compatible audio systems and smart speakers.

Cassette tapes are back too, and you can pick up Bluetooth tape players for as little as £24.

Some include USB drives you can copy your music onto; others simply connect to your Bluetooth headphones.

If you would like a rotary phone, Amazon’s virtual shelves include classic rotary models such as the GPO 746, which is a loving homage to the enormous phones of the pre-digital era. Expect to pay around £40.

If you miss the warm glow of filament bulbs, technology can help: Philips’ Hue smart bulb range now includes long-life, low-energy LED filaments that look ancient. And as for the cuckoo clock mentioned earlier? John Lewis currently sells a ‘Tweeting’ cuckoo clock for £74. Don’t worry, the tweeting refers to its sound: it doesn’t post things to your Twitter account.

Phones like this are widely available and tick all the boxes: curly cords, just the right amount of finger resistance and, of course, a range of eye-popping colours. £40, Amazon.co.uk

RED5 Retro mini arcade machine We hate to break it to you, but the arcade cabinets this little console looks like are over 50 years old. It comes pre-installed with over 200 arcade games. £20, Argos.co.uk

Roberts Revival iStream 3 It looks like it should only play you the shipping forecast but Roberts’ digital radio can stream from Spotify and play tunes from TIDAL. £229, Roberts.com

Sony PS-LX310BT Bluetooth Turntable Classic looks meet cutting-edge technology in this very clever turntable for vinyl records old or new. £194, sony.co.uk

Over half a million people registered with the charity Veganuary in January 2021 to try the challenge to cut out all animal products. Many more people will be trying again in 2022 and even if you can’t quite stick to the full 31 days, introducing more vegan food into your diet is good for the planet and your health. As luck would have it, there are many of the best ingredients in season right now.

Cauliflower Such a versatile vegetable, cauliflower can be used in many unexpected ways. Slice a whole cauliflower into three to four vegetable ‘steaks’, then roast them in the oven in a little sauce or marinade to add flavour. You’ll have a healthy meal that is low in calories and carbs.

Cauli-rice fits into every dieting regime.

This is where you blitz the florets in a food processor until they resemble couscous grains. They can be cooked with a little water in the microwave, but even more delicious is to drizzle a little olive oil on a baking sheet and spread the grains out. Roast at 200C/180C fan/gas mark 6 for 12-15 mins.

Walnuts Mainly vegetablebased meals can sometimes lack the texture you might be used to with meat. Chop up some walnuts and mix them into almost anything to add a delicious crunch.

Green Vegetables Cabbage, kale, Brussel sprouts (not just for Christmas!), chard and leeks are all in season and are full of vitamins, yet low in fat and carbohydrate.

You need to be creative as a bowl of cabbage on its own will sabotage any well-meaning food plan, but the internet is full of good vegan-based recipes including these ingredients.

Citrus fruits High in sugar so limit how much you have, but nobody ever overdoes their grapefruit intake – at least not without lots of sugar on top. The key here though is to eat the whole fruit, as the juice is too easily overconsumed.

Legumes (pulses) Chickpeas, lentils, peas and peanuts are all part of the same family and are rich in fibre and protein. They aren’t really in season in January but they keep so well either dried or tinned that you don’t need to worry about the time of year to use them.

Mushrooms From little buttons to the big portobello ones, each type of mushroom adds to a dish in both flavour and texture. The stems of King Oyster mushrooms have an appearance and texture very similar to scallops when cooked.

Looking for the perfect nursery for your child? Here’s a few things to keep in mind…

Editorial Reviews

Decide your priorities Everyone wants their child to be safe and happy.

Beyond that, what are your main priorities? Are you looking for a small nursery where all the children play together or one where the children are split into groups depending on their age? Do you want your child to go to a nursery that follows the government’s EYFS framework, or one that follows a different approach, such as Montessori or Steiner Waldorf? Perhaps you want a nursery with plenty of outdoor space?

It’s OK if you don’t have all the answers just yet, but it’s a good idea to have at least a rough idea of what you’re looking for.

Consider location People tend to focus on nurseries near their home, but it may actually make more sense to choose one that’s nearer to your workplace. However, do consider what will happen if you move jobs or want to work from home more often. If you and your partner work in different locations, it may be easier having a nursery that’s closer to home, so that you can take turns dropping off and picking up. A nursery close to home may also mean your child moves up to primary school with a group of friends, which could make the transition easier.

Ask around The best recommendations usually come from friends, as they’ll likely share many of your views on childcare. However, it’s also worth asking for opinions on your local Facebook group and other social media channels, and checking websites such as www. daynurseries.co.uk.

Once you have a shortlist of nurseries, you’ll want to read each one’s OFSTED report at reports.ofsted.gov.uk.

(It’s also worth downloading the checklist at www.childcare.co.uk/information/ nursery-is-your-child-ready.)

Visit your shortlisted nurseries Even if you have your heart set on one particular nursery, it’s worth visiting at least three so that you can compare them. Write down any questions you have before you go. You’ll want to see whether the children look happy and engaged, how friendly and knowledgeable the staff are, what different activities the children are offered and how clean and safe the setting seems. You’ll also want to check where and when your child will take their nap, what type of food they’ll eat and whether there are quiet areas they can retreat to if they’re feeling overwhelmed.

Ultimately, you want to be armed with all the information you need to make the right choice. However, there’s also a lot to be said for trusting your gut instinct. Which nursery feels right for your child?

After-school tutoring can be an invaluable part of a child’s education.

A tutor can offer support in areas that your child might struggle with, such as maths or English, or help your child to further improve in subjects that they already excel at. Tutoring is also available in subjects that your child’s school might not offer, e.g. Mandarin and philosophy.

You can appoint a tutor at any time in your child’s education, but tutoring can be particularly valuable in the run-up to exams, such as GCSEs or the 11-plus. As well as helping with subject-specific knowledge, tutoring can be useful if your child suffers from exam-related anxiety or if they’re not used to sitting tests.

The one-to-one basis of tutoring means your child can learn at their own speed, rather than being led by the wider needs of the class. It also allows extra time for questions or diving deeper into a subject.

Tutors usually come to your home, although some operate out of an education centre.

Many also offer video tutoring, which is helpful if you’re searching for a tutor in a less common subject.

Choosing a tutor After-school tutoring can feel like a punishment. Few children want to add more studying to their weekly timetable. So look for a tutor who will be able to build a good rapport with your child. Not only is your child likely to learn more, they’ll also be happier and will put To advertise call Karen: 020 8274 0096

more effort into their learning. A good tutor should help to increase your child’s confidence in a subject and, ideally, boost their enjoyment for learning.

Before committing to a tutor, you’ll want to check references, qualifications and ID. Finding the right tutor Ask your child’s school if they have any recommendations, and put the word out in your friendship circle that you’re looking for a tutor.

You may also want to register with sites such as www.firsttutors.com, which helps to connect private tutors with parents. Some of these sites check the IDs and references of the tutors they promote, which gives you additional peace of mind.

The cost of tutoring A tutor’s hourly rate will depend on a number of factors, including their experience, location and what subject your child needs help with. In most cases, you’ll pay between £20 and £40 an hour for an experienced tutor. If your child is at primary school, a tutoring session will generally last for no more than an hour. An A-level tutoring session might be as long as 2.5 hours.

Safety Tutors don’t have to be DBS checked, but it’s wise to choose one who has been. A parent or guardian should also be present during every tutoring session.

Make light work of house cleaning

ç Take the effort out of everyday cleaning. Long-handle dustpan and brush, £25, gardentrading.co.uk.

• If you can’t bear the thought of tackling all the cleaning at once, divide it into manageable tasks, and devote perhaps an hour a week – or else tackle one room at a time, maybe over a weekend.

• Be prepared. Have a thorough clear-out and tidy, change into old clothes and rubber gloves, and gather the necessary equipment and products. This is where a sturdy caddy, a tool belt, or an apron with plenty of large pockets becomes invaluable – keeping everything with you as you go will save lots of time.

é Generously sized and made from pure cotton, this gingham apron features a pair of handy patch pockets. Auberge apron in Wedgwood blue, £16.99, waltonshop.co.uk. ç The sustainable way to clean dirty dishes. Simply compost when finished with them. Natural latex rubber gloves, £3, zerozen.co.uk.

• As you work, try to be organised, whether it’s one room at a time or one task at a time. The chores will generally divide into five main areas: vacuuming, dusting, mopping/scrubbing, washing and wiping, and polishing, so bear this in mind when planning, so as not to miss anything out.

• Don’t forget specific tasks such as turning mattresses, spot-cleaning upholstery, deep-cleaning the oven, defrosting the freezer, descaling the shower head and steam cleaning carpets.

• Work from the top of a room to the bottom (in other words, dust the pendant light before polishing the table beneath it). Prioritise the hardest-to-clean item in the room to do early on – then the rest of the room

will be a breeze.

hen you read this, the outcome of Glasgow’s climate change talks will be known – but I’m writing this on a train back from Glasgow, before we know, having travelled to COP26 in its first week.

These climate talks are crucial: their outcome will play an important part in determining our planet’s future, including the quality of lives for hundreds of millions of people – if not for all of humanity’s billions.

Will countries’ pledges to cut emissions take us to a world of “only” 2 degrees of global warming? Or will we still be in realistic reach of meeting the much safer target of 1.5 degrees of warming?

Whilst climate campaigners have mostly welcomed the UK’s commitments to “net zero” by 2050 and the ban on new petrol and diesel cars from 2030, there’s growing concern that serious early action is being avoided in the UK.

The difference between these two figures may not seem much. Yet with climate change already threatening the very existence of some island states due to rising sea levels whilst making life almost unbearably hot for tens of millions in the world’s poorest countries - pledges to “just” 2 degrees of warming would leave a huge amount still to do.

From the Government’s continuing failure to have any serious programmes to insulate people’s homes to the lack of ambition to incentivise electric vehicles and renewable heating systems, climate action is being dangerously delayed.

What top climate negotiators told me From my Glasgow meetings I got a real sense of progress – but nowhere near enough progress to spark the celebrations we saw in Paris, when a real breakthrough was made.

From chatting with the UK’s lead COP26 negotiator - and several chats with his predecessor who was the UK’s lead climate negotiator when I led the UK delegation to 3 previous COP summits – some people are cautiously optimistic Glasgow may see the world heading near to “just” 2 degrees. What gives them hope, are announcements like those on methane emissions and deforestation, and some “headline” pledges to cut emissions from countries like South Africa, Argentina and South Korea.

Yet others were far more cautious, fearing over-positive interpretation of different announcements and pledges. In reality, they say, we will still fall short of even a 2 degree world – with too many countries like China and Russia making inadequate commitments.

With the world needing to reach the real goal of 1.5 degrees, an outcome short of commitments for 2 degrees, will indeed be disappointing.

Actions not pledges – the rise of NIMTO Perhaps my biggest worry is the lack of action plans behind the pledges.

It is one thing making a commitment to cut emissions – important though that is – but it is quite another to produce credible policies and actions actually to meet such commitments.

Given we need far more action this decade - to stand any chance of hitting targets for “net zero” emissions by 2050, or

China’s pledge before COP26 – it’s so-called Nationally Determined Contribution, or NDC – suffered from similar problems. Analysts all believe the world needs China to start reducing its use of coal before 2030, and ideally by not later than 2025 – but that requires action now, and there is little sign of that.

The benefits of early action Action is possible.

I’m proud that policies I introduced as Cabinet Minister for Energy and Climate Change has already brought an early quadrupling of the UK’s renewable power, seeing us become the world leader in offshore wind power.

That progress on renewables is one of the main reasons why the UK has already closed almost every coal-fuelled power station, and reduced coal use far faster than equivalent countries, including Germany.

Taking such early action not only benefits the fight against climate change but, if done well, cuts people’s bills.

The price of offshore wind power has fallen dramatically, thanks to the policy I introduced to force investors to compete for Government support. As gas prices have soared and heating bills with them, many of those renewable power plants are now effectively paying money back to the consumer – reducing the upward pressure on energy bills from rising prices of fossil fuels.

So my final verdict on whether Glasgow’s climate talks have been successful will be determined by the action we see from Governments around the world – including here – in the next 12 months. The difference between a 2 degree world and a 1.5 degree world depends on that.

accurate bill,” she called, “and it hasn’t been done in over a year.”

Those were the final words Tonie’s cousin Shirley said before she left for the airport.

Now there was an impatient man from the gas company wanting to read the meter, which, inconveniently, happened to be in the cupboard under the stairs.

“Just send me a guesstimate,” Norman called back dismissively. “I’m happy to pay the going rate.”

Tonie was in a quandary. While Shirley was away, she’d promised to check in on Uncle Norman every day. She’d been doing her best to avoid Norman’s cupboard but the persistent hissing and squeaking coming from within was hard to ignore.

“Snakes? I don’t think that’s it.” Norman shook his head while holding court in his favourite armchair. “She did tell me what she’s doing but I can’t remember everything.”

Whatever it was, though, Tonie noticed he also avoided the cupboard under the stairs.

“Would it be alright if the man read the meter?”

Tonie called through to the sitting room, smiling innocently at the man from the gas company.

“It’ll only take a minute.”

“Tell him there’s no need, I don’t bother with the gas fire much,” Norman called back stroppily.

This was untrue, Norman had the fire on all day long; the sitting room was tropical.

“He says he’s got to read it to send you an

“He’s coming in!” Tonie called to Norman. The situation had escalated, and he still hadn’t got out of his armchair.

If there was a snake in the cupboard, she reasoned it would not be her fault. The gas man had let himself in uninvited and would have to shoulder the responsibility.

She grabbed an umbrella from the coat stand just in case.

“Has Shirley got back into breeding snakes?” she’d asked Uncle Norman cautiously.

Shirley had been acting very secretive lately, keeping unusual hours, her phone always ringing, and now there was suddenly cash to spend on a minibreak. Tonie was certain that whatever was hidden behind the door was the answer.

“How are you with snakes?” she asked casually as he turned the door handle.

“You’d better not be opening that door; I remember what she’s doing now!” Norman called from the sitting room. “There’ll be hell to pay!”

The door burst open.

The man from the gas company staggered backwards.

“What’s all this?” he cried. Tonie shrieked and batted the air blindly with her umbrella. It took her a moment to realise that she was not fighting a reptile but a cloud of colourful balloons.

“I told you not to open it,” Norman said gruffly.

“Balloon sculptures for events, that’s what Shirley’s up to. Good luck getting them all back in there now.”

If brilliant white is too cold, choose a white with a pink or yellow undertone. .deriuqer era secivres rieht nehw ’ssecca

Pale neutrals vary in hue from cream to sand, through taupe to stone and bleached-timber tones, while darker neutrals vary from charcoal and ebony to chocolate – and there is a whole rainbow in between, including beautiful greys.

Many people love a room that combines whites or a range of very pale tones, but with neutrals you can also employ counterpoints of darker tones against lighter colours, or even go dark and dramatic all over.

Inspired by classic wingback chairs, these stately beds have ample storage space concealed beneath. Kenley ottoman storage bed in oatmeal fabric, £699.99 (double), Furniture & Choice: 0333 015 0000; furniturechoice.co.uk

Choose colours by trying them out in situ, using tester pots. Paint at least two coats on pieces of card, place them on the room’s walls and observe them when you usually use the room, with lights both on and off.

Select layers of colour rather than just one, but avoid different hues all of the same tone – using a colour chart and going up or down (dark to light) within the same colour family helps. You could use darker tones for woodwork with lighter ones for walls, or vary wall tones with lighter ones above and darker ones below divisions such as cornices or dadoes. You can also use different neutrals to provide a gentle visual link from room to room.

Continue the layering effect with flooring, wallcoverings, furnishings and accessories.

In any neutral scheme, success comes from choosing textures as carefully as colours.

Natural is key, so aim for simple upholstery, window treatments, bed linen and table linens, in fabrics with subtle and attractive variations in texture – crisp linen, soft cotton, warm wool, floaty muslin, fluffy sheepskin, and so on.

While there is inherent pattern in many of these textures, you may wish to introduce some surface pattern, too. In rooms that are relatively plain, small pattern features will stand out as focal points. Checks and stripes, chevrons and zigzags, damasks and geometrics can all look good. Similarly, the occasional spot of colour, whether it’s a pale pink cushion, a turquoise vase or a mustard-coloured lampshade, may be the perfect finishing touch.

It’s all too easy to get stuck in a beauty rut. If you fancy trying something new, book yourself in for a skin consultation or mini makeover at a cosmetics counter. Or visit a few counters and ask for their recommendations. (You may get given some free samples to try at home.) You could also sign up for a beauty box subscription, like those by Birchbox, Glossy Box and Look Fantastic, which will give you the chance to sample lots of different brands.

Supercharge your bath

Who doesn’t love a soak in the bath on a cold winter’s night? Make yours a treat for your skin and senses with a handful of fragranced bath salts. Dove’s are a good choice. They’re made from pure sea salt to ease aching muscles, with added natural moisturisers to boost hydration.

And you have a choice of three aromatherapy-inspired fragrances, at £6.99 from www.boots. com and www.superdrug.com.

Give your nails a break

Gels and acrylics are great, but your nails do need a rest now and then to recuperate. If your nails are feeling brittle, file them short to reduce the risk of breakage. Treat them to a weekly nailstrengthening treatment and a daily cuticle oil. If you want some colour, choose a gentle nail polish.

Nailberry polishes (£15, www.nailberry.co.uk) are breathable and free from alcohol, phthalates and harsh chemicals.

Feed your skin

Boost a healthy diet with a vitamin supplement. Manifesto’s Beauty gummies (£39.90, www.manifesto-nutrition.co) are a good choice as they’re packed with vitamins and antioxidants and taste great. The hero ingredient is astaxanthin, which has been found to improve skin’s elasticity. There’s also zinc, biotin and Vitamin A to help strengthen your hair and nails, collagen boosting Vitamin C, and other ingredients your skin will thank you for.

Use SPF

Your skin doesn’t need to be at risk of burning to be damaged by UV rays. So it’s important to protect it all year around. A good facial sunscreen shouldn’t feel greasy or block pores. Alternatively, you can just opt for a moisturiser with added SPF, but to get the full benefit, you may need to use more than usual.

Treat your hair

If you struggle to find the time for a weekly hair mask, try an overnight one. JOICO’s Defy Damage Sleepover Treatment contains moringa seed oil to add shine and softness, along with other natural ingredients that help to strengthen hair and protect it from further damage. It’s non-greasy and you don’t even need to rinse it out the following morning. It costs £20 at www.lookfantastic.com.

Switch to green beauty

It’s simpler than you might think to make more eco-conscious choices. To start with, look for easily recyclable, zero-waste packaging. Check that the brands you use are certified crueltyfree. And swap disposable products for reusable ones, such as a bamboo razors, refillable deodorants and washable cleansing pads. To make life easier, buy from retailers that have strict eco policies, like www.biggreensmile.com, www.naturalcollection.com and www.lovelula.com.

Yeotown, Devon This rustic-meets-luxury haven near Barnstaple is best known for its health and fitness programme. This is not your average fitness holiday; expect everything from long hikes along the North Devon coastline and bike rides in the forest to sunrise yoga and lessons on diet and nutrition.

There’s also a hot tub and sauna to make the most of, not to mention healthy, vegan cuisine delicious enough to convert even the most hardened carnivore.

Our Retreat, Somerset This yoga and meditation retreat is hosted in a beautiful nineteenth-century farmhouse in the heart of Somerset’s idyllic countryside. A daily schedule at Our Retreat typically includes morning meditation, restorative yin yoga or Pilates, breath work, sound baths and guided walks.

Don’t worry, you’ll have flexibility to do what you want too, with plenty of time carved out for reading, massages or simply dozing off in the sun. Throw in some wholesome meals and you have a retreat that’s guaranteed to nourish your mind, body and soul.

Skyros, the Isle of Wight Hosted at The Grange, a Georgian B&B with sweeping sea views and a spacious garden, Skyros is famous for its two, three and four-night courses that help you become the person you truly want to be.

From writing, comedy and photography to yoga, dance and wellbeing, there are holidays for everyone – whatever you’re into and whether you’re travelling solo or with friends. The location is pretty idyllic too; set in the south of the Isle of Wight, a stone’s throw from the sea, there’s plenty to do, see and explore nearby.

Birch, Hertfordshire Proof that you don’t always need to escape to the countryside to slow down, this country manor hotel on the outskirts of London provides a creative space to recharge or get involved in an array of classes.

Take part in classes ranging from gong baths to sourdough and soda breadmaking, glassblowing workshops and yoga. Oh, and did we mention the five-star facilities? Start your day in the gym, swim some lengths in the outdoor pool and dine on homegrown food, every day.

One year ago, we at RBKares launched our volunteering group with a project for Care Homes at Christmas, which culminated in donating 3436 gifts and over 6000 homemade children’s cards to them.

As we approach Christmas 2021, we are launching our “Christmas Kindness for Care Homes” in the Kingston Borough - and we need your help with as much publicity as possible.

We want to say a huge thank you to all staff for coping with another extremely hard year of in care homes by giving presents and cards to them and to all residents who have no relatives or friends, to show the gratitude and love of our community.

To do this we need your help….

We are asking for donations of new and unused gifts (toiletries, chocolates, jigsaws, colouring pencils, adult colouring books, notebooks, painting by numbers etc) or money via our online fundraising page which will be advertised on our Website and Facebook page.

If there are any crafters, we need knitted items – scarves, pom-pom hats and mittens There will also be an Amazon wish list which will go live next week.

We also need as much publicity as possible – please share on your local neighbourhood and What’s app groups.

We are hoping to deliver to all the Borough’s care homes by the second week of December.

We have a Facebook page and a website (see links below). These will have further details of collection points for gift donations etc. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2315313708614146 https://rbkares.org info@rbkares.org To advertise call Karen: 020 8274 0096
