SPOT LIGHT On Community News Do you have an opinion on healthcare?

You may not be aware that recent changes to the General Medical Services Contract from April 2011 require GP practices to promote the proactive engagement of patients through a Patient Participation Group. At its simplest Patient Participation refers to patients taking an active interest in their health care and at present most Patient Participation groups (PPG) operate within their GP surgery and aim to make an important contribution to the well being of their communities. The aim of each PPG is to gather a group of local members from a broad a spectrum as possible to get a truly representative sample of opinion and points of view. PPG activities can include: health promotion, information provision, service delivery, fundraising and strategic input into the practice. Blyth Road Medical Centre has recently started a PPG. We need young people, workers, retirees, people with long term conditions and people from ethnic groups. If you personally would like to make a difference and have an opinion on healthcare and the services provided through your GP then why not become an active member of you PPG. You could either be someone who attends our regular meetings (about once every 3 months) or alternatively be someone who would be happy for the PPG to contact you occasionally for your opinion on current topics For further information about joining and participating please visit the surgery and pick up a leaflet or call us on: 01709 798239

New Members Wanted

Do you believe local people and businesses should have their say on the types of learning and training offered in their communities? If the answer is yes to the above, why not attend your local Community Learning Forum in Maltby. The forum will provide you with a voice to direct what types of learning are offered and how they are delivered. In addition it will provide information on what learning is already taking place and where in your local community. The next Forum meeting will be held at Maltby Community Library Monday 19th November 2012, 9:30 – 11:30 am Meetings are held every 6 weeks. For further information contact Maherun Choudhury on 01709 254799

Slimming Expert Wins Award

Helping people achieve their dreams, especially when it comes to losing weight, is no mean achievement. Slimming World consultants are well known for being the most dedicated when it comes to real help and support through one of the most difficult things anyone ever has to do in their lives. So winning a special award for doing just that is pretty exceptional. Anita Smedley who holds a group at Maltby on Tuesday nights says “This job is so very special. Watching someone change from having no confidence, being embarrassed about their size and wearing shapeless clothes to someone who looks and feels great, brings its own rewards on a daily basis. But to have your work recognised in this way is, I must admit, a very proud moment for me.” In the 10 weeks since Anita Smedley has been a consultant she has helped members lose more than 599 lbs, making Maltby one of the best weight losing areas in the country. So well done to Anita Smedley and well done to the slimmers of Maltby. If you want to join Anita’s award winning group her class is on Tuesday nights at the Full Life Church Centre, High Street, Maltby at either 5.30pm or 7.30pm. For more information call Anita on 07712 540088

On Lifestyle & Interests

Flu Jabs Most of us know that certain groups of people should visit the GP for a flu jab: the elderly, diabetics, asthmatics etc. What many people don’t realise is that even if you don’t fall into one of the ‘at risk’ categories a flu jab is still a sensible precaution. You’ll have to pay, but it’s inexpensive (generally under £10) and many pharmacists administer the vaccine on their premises so you won’t have to book an appointment with your GP or take time off work. Why might an otherwise healthy person request a flu vaccine? Well, seasonal flu is a substantial and unpleasant illness, far worse than the common cold, with which it’s sometimes confused. Flu generally requires a week or so off work to recover and can trigger other conditions like bronchitis or pneumonia. The average person with flu infects one or two other people through sneezing, coughing and

touch. If you work with the general public, in a shop for example, you are more at risk of being exposed to the virus so you might consider a flu jab a worthwhile investment. A business owner may consider the impact a week off sick would have on his business and opt to protect himself or herself for that reason. Children are much more likely to pick up and pass on bugs as they are in such close proximity to each other all day. For this reason teachers and parents might think it wise to have a jab. Flu jabs are generally safe unless you have an allergy to eggs or have had a previous allergic reaction to a shot. So discuss protecting yourself with your pharmacist today. By Sarah Davey

When I received my first call, I was expecting the usual crackles and incoherent sounds to come from the speaker but no, it was clear as a whistle and the person I was speaking to could hear me clearly as well. At one point I even opened the window to test it and I did not have a complaint from the person on the other end of the line.

Supertooth Buddy Bluetooth Car Kit From £39.99

Hello and welcome to my column in Community Spotlight. In this column we will look at various Gadgets, Gizmos and downloadable applications that everyone I thought would start with an item that I believe should be compulsory. Using a mobile phone whist driving is very dangerous, not to mention illegal! If you must use a mobile whilst driving then a Bluetooth kit is essential A friend of mine, Nigel Short from Voot Telecom, gave me a Supertooth Buddy to try. I have personally owned a number of these “clip on” visor kits and they have all been, well rubbish. When he first gave it to me I thought, here we go again but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The Supertooth Buddy is brilliant but it is brilliant because of its simplicity. It took me all of 30 second to pair my phone to the device. It is possible to actually pair 2 phones to the particular piece of kit. Once connected you are away. You can set you phone to automatically connect so you

NO CALL OUT CHARGE. NO HIDDEN COSTS.

Talking Technology

I said it was brilliant because of its simplicity. There is a grand total of 5 buttons. A red and a green button that work as per the ones on your phone, 2 volume buttons and an on/off button. The buttons are a decent size and easy to locate making the device easy to use. The Supertooth Buddy also looks good. It is slim and compact so will not look obtrusive on the sun visor in your car. All these kits clip to the cars visor, however this one is magnetic. With the clip is placed on the visor, the Supertooth Buddy uses a magnet to hold it in place. This makes it easy to take in at night to charge up! It is lightweight, slim and very much portable between vehicles. Available from www.vootaccessories.co.uk for just £39-99, this is the cost effective alternative to hands free phone calls in you car with out the expense of a professionally fitted kit.

Firework Safety and Etiquette

Hosting and planning a party can be stressful, what with checking there’s enough food and drink to go around and organising the entertainment. Fireworks are a brilliant way to entertain guests, but whilst they may look pretty in the night sky, they can also be extremely dangerous. Make sure that in between shopping for party-poppers and paper plates, you also have the right safety equipment needed for your display. Gloves and eye protection are a must have, as well as a taper for setting off fireworks at arm’s length - you don’t want to burn off your eyebrows by mistake! Make sure that everybody stands well back, and do not approach fireworks that have

Rocket Man

been lit - even if they haven’t gone off – as there’s a chance they still could. Store your fireworks in a metal box, away from flames, so that your party doesn’t go off with the wrong kind of bang, and always keep a bucket of water nearby to put out sparklers safely. Last of all, don’t forget to tell your neighbours in advance that you’re having a party so that they aren’t inconvenienced by the noise, and if your party is not on November 5th itself do not set fireworks off after 11pm as it’s against the law and you could be fined! On November 5th you have until 12 midnight. Most importantly, make sure you have fun, enjoy yourself, and stay safe! Debbie Singh-Bhatti

Recipe of the Month

Parkin - This is a super tasty Bonfire Night treat. Serves 12 Preparation time 20 minutes Cooking time 25-30 minutes Method Preheat the oven to 180C / Gas mark 4. Grease and line a 30cm x 25cm x 5cm tin with non-stick baking paper. I have a 30cm round tin which, though not traditional, works just as well. Sift the flour, ground ginger, bicarbonate of soda and salt into a bowl. Stir in the oatmeal and make a well in the centre. Put the treacle, golden syrup, butter and sugar into a saucepan and heat gently until the butter has melted. Remove from the heat and stir in the milk and the beaten egg. Add to the dry ingredients and beat thoroughly. Pour into your chosen tin and bake in the centre of the oven for 25-30minutes until firm, and a skewer inserted into the Parkin comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin. When cold wrap in greaseproof paper and store in a airtight tin. This really does improve in flavour after a few days maturing so make it in advance and hide it! Cut into squares or slices for serving.

Ingredients

• 450g Minced Pork • 225g plain flour • 2 level tsp ground ginger • 1 level tsp bicarbonate of soda • ½ level tsp salt • 225g medium oatmeal • 115g black treacle • 115g golden syrup • 115g soft light-brown sugar • 115g butter • 150ml milk • 1 egg - beaten

Be Kind To Your Boiler

Be Kind To Your Boiler Boilers, like cars, can run for years without being serviced, but if they aren’t checked regularly it could be costly in the long run. Boilers are subject to gradual wear and tear and if minor problems are left unchecked they could lead to major damage, hefty repair bills and even boiler replacement.

Along with the financial benefits, annual boiler servicing is essential to the terms of some warranties and is a legal requirement if you are a landlord. It could also be a matter of life and death should a leak be discovered. Carbon monoxide poisoning can lead to serious illness and even death if it is not detected.

Seasonal treats

The nights may be getting longer, but produce in the garden is still in abundance. Due to the later start of the season most plants, especially vegetables, got off to a really slow start, but when it did finally warm up in late July it meant the crops came in bumper sized! The month of October is a colourful one in the garden and the onset of autumn marks the start of the celebrations and traditions which unite friends and family and where we can share good times within our community. Take the humble pumpkin for example. Prize winning or not, it’s a fruit which when picked at the beginning of the month and left to ripen in the greenhouse, is perfect for eating, just in time for Halloween. The act of carving out the pumpkin is a family event in our house and not a bit goes to waste. The outer skin is used to create a scary face, topped with a pumpkin hat, the flesh from the centre makes amazing soup (if seasoned well) and the seeds can be toasted and sprinkled in the soup or even better onto a loaf of home made bread. A family activity and meal in one … what other fruit offers so much for so little time and effort? Autumn is the time to tidy up the garden, but don’t think of it as outdoor housework. Putting the garden to bed

Garden View & Puzzle Solutions

should be an enjoyable task, a time spent alone outside in the brisk fresh air, where you can generate your own warmth through hard work, culminating in a great sense of satisfaction. It’s also an opportunity to be creative and plant out winter/spring bedding schemes. If traditional bedding is not your cup of tea, and you prefer something a little more ‘Earl Grey’, why not try this. Take a couple of evergreen grasses, a few attractive twigs (from the red Cornus or twisted Hazel) and some dried Allium stalks (with heads) and have a go with a little outdoor flower arranging. Then introduce some autumn flowering plants, such as a lovely rust coloured Chrysanthemum, shocking pink Cyclamen or a more subtle dwarf Aster and you’ll have an impressive display to welcome your guests when they come to share in your seasonal treats.

Jobs to do this month • Divide herbaceous perennials and rhubarb crowns by lifting out with a fork and chopping into pieces with a spade. Replant with plenty of well rotted compost or manure • Plant out spring cabbages and harvest apples, pears and nuts • Clear up fallen autumn leaves regularly • Ensure plant pots have good drainage, and consider standing pots on feet • Pot up tender plants such as Fuchsias and Pelargoniums and place these in the glasshouse for overwinter protection

The Big Draw The Big Draw. Have you heard of it? I hadn’t until I started doing the research for this article. All kinds of possibilities passed through my mind. Is it a lottery? Some kind of cowboy duel? Maybe a stalemate in some sporting activity? Or what about a huge pull-out storage compartment (although we all know this would be spelt ‘drawer’)? No it’s not any of those things! The Big Draw is the world’s biggest celebration of drawing, organised by the charity Campaign for Drawing. Its aim is to raise the profile of drawing as a tool for thought, creativity, social and cultural engagement, and it plans to continue its work until the words ‘I can’t draw’ are dropped from our vocabulary! The Big Draw is a month-long festival running throughout October in all parts of the UK and twenty other countries internationally. Over a thousand organisations are involved, running events that create opportunities for families, children and adults to draw with a large variety of media about a wide selection of subjects.

The Big Draw

civic participation by uniting people of all ages, backgrounds and cultures. The Campaign for Drawing sees drawing as a basic human skill that is useful in all walks of life and that helps people see, think, invent and take action. This year the theme for the Big Draw is ‘Lines’, and participants are encouraged to do as Swiss artist Paul Klee once suggested, by ‘taking a line for a walk’. The festival kicks-off with a free national launch at the Victoria and Albert Museum on 30 September. Big Draw, Big Make will bring together leading teams and individuals from some of the UK's top design practices to show the importance of drawing across the creative industries. If you are interested in taking part in the Big Draw and would like to know more about the events planned in your area, go to www.campaignfordrawing.org.

So many hobbies and pastimes these days are either difficult to pursue or afford, but drawing is neither. Both accessible and economical, it requires nothing more than a pencil and paper. If that isn’t reason enough to Big Draw organisers include educators at give it a try, I don’t know what is! national, regional and local museums, galleries, heritage sites, libraries, parks, Debbie Singh-Bhatti schools, universities, shopping and community centres, art clubs and village halls, who together run around 1,300 drawing events to engage their communities in creative activities. By encouraging wide-scale public participation, The Big Draw aims to show that drawing can be a positive collaborative activity as well as a private passion. The Big Draw also encourages engagement with museum and gallery collections and increases

Pooch Calendar Competition

2013 Picture Your Pooch Calendar Competition Entries have been flowing in to Mutts‘n’Mongrels ‘Picture Your Pooch’ 2013 Calendar Competition. There’s still time to submit your own pictures of your dog for a chance to win. The competition is open to all S66 residents as a thank you from Mutts‘n’Mongrels for making their first year trading so successful. To enter, visit their Facebook page and like the page, then upload your images to their wall. Alternatively, send your images by e-mail to pets@muttsnmongrels.co.uk Andy and Angie, the proprietors, offer the following tip for your pictures... As this is a calendar competition, winners are likely to be selected because not only does the image show the dog but also reflects a seasonal aspect or relates to a specific month. (Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Bonfire Night, Holidays etc. etc.) They look forward to receiving your entries and wish everyone luck!

Good Quality Donations are welcome. Please contact us if you wish to become a Volunteer

1. Advertisers receive a simple, single line entry for free when they advertise in the magazine. They will have the option to upgrade to an enhanced listing and receive 50% off these prices. 2. Anyone not wanting to advertise in the main magazine will now have this affordable tool for advertising their business on a long term basis. 3. The aim is to make this directory the first port of call for the readers of the magazine, and because it comes out monthly, the businesses listed will always be put to the forefront of readers’ minds. 4.
