LOCAL CHARITY NOW SUPPORTING 15 CHILDREN ACROSS THE UK The Danny Green Fund have had a busy year so far and are currently supporting an average of 15 children from around the UK to access physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, speech therapy, swimming therapy and horse riding therapy every week. In recent weeks one of the children we are supporting has taken part in a physiotherapy session using “robot legs” which is a relatively new technique to help his balance and core strength. It is an honour for us to be able to fund much needed therapies like this for so many children. This support is only possible thanks to our fund raisers and supporters. If you would like to help fund raise for The Danny Green Fund please email us at info@ thedannygreenfund.org.uk and help to make a difference to the lives of children who are suffering from disabilities as the result of a brain tumour.

Cloudy2Clear Announce Trusted Trader Partnership Consumer champions Which? have now joined the thousands of customers who recognise that Cloudy2Clear Windows really are a business that you can TRUST. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes – not the frames has received the coveted ‘Which Trusted Trader’ status after going through a rigorous accreditation process entirely focussed on customer service. Group Managing Director Marcus McGee believes that Which? have endorsed Cloudy2Clear’s long standing company
policy of delivering the highest standards possible at all times. ‘Our service is simple. If your double glazing has misted up we can replace the glass at a fraction of the cost of a new window, in any type of frame, and with a new 25 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving people money, although that obviously helps. Whilst a number of tradespeople perhaps don’t focus on customer care as much as they should do, we make sure we turn up when we say we will, do the job the customer requires and leave their house as clean as a whistle. Locally Cloudy2Clear service Billericay, Basildon Wickford & Langdon Hills
and manager Chris Miller agrees that this approach is a major factor in his success. ‘The truth is that it’s not just the personal satisfaction that I get from doing a good job but also it makes good business sense. I get a huge amount of business from friends and family of people I’ve done work for, which just goes to show how much a little bit of effort is appreciated as both my customers and, obviously a body as nationally important as Which? now recognise.’ So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Chris a call for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!
Cloudy2Clear GUARANTEE All Customers That An Average Quote Will Take No Longer Than 20 MINS!!!

hide age-appropriate sweets all around and decorate as much as you like. They can still dress in costume and experience the joy of surprise sweets and treats. Best part? If they’re tired after a half hour, you can call it a night! DECORATE MINI PUMPKINS No need to carve Jack-o’-lanterns. Arts and crafts are more fun for little kids, so decorate Halloween pumpkins—especially of the small variety that children love. It’s a basic idea, but give them all kinds of fun things to decorate with, like pre-cut paper or felt facial features, buttons if they’re old enough, feathers, stickers, even sweets. Have the kids decorate small pumpkins together; they could be minis or pie-size pumpkins. It’s a classic craft, and the kids can take pride in their handiwork.
TRICK OR TREAT OR... If you don’t fancy trick or treating this year then here are some festive ideas for you Trick-or-treating is fun for big kids, but for toddlers? Halloween night can be too cold, too much walking and too much sugar for the littlest kids. They’ll likely want to be involved in the big day on October 31, but you might want to keep their fun in check and age-appropriate. Here, a couple creative moms offer alternatives to hiking from house to house on Halloween. Let toddlers have their celebration—and actually enjoy it, too. GARDEN TRICK-OR-TREATING Instead of going around the streets, have your kids trick-or-treat in your own garden and house with a scavenger hunt. You can
BOB FOR APPLES Remember this game? Your kids will love it. Bobbing for apples is a classic way for kids to have fun while getting a sweet treat. For a twist on the original, hang doughnuts from string and have the kids eat them with no hands. They’ll love the goodies they’re fishing for, and will probably get a good giggle as well. PLAY PHOTO BOOTH Make use of your little ones’ cute costumes, and capture the Halloween memory. “Let kids live it up in costume with a few simple props. Arrange pumpkins, maybe some bats, or a moon and stars on the wall behind them. Take individual shots—family shots or kids together. Maybe even provide some extra, simple costume itevms, like funny glasses or hats for kids who really want to amp it up.

Poison Toffee Apples •2 cups granulated sugar • ¾ cups water • ½ cup liquid glucose/light corn syrup • black gel food colouring • 6 Granny Smith apples
Ingredients Method
6
servings
Prep 5 min › Cook 20 min › Ready in 25 mins
1
Grease a piece of baking paper and place on a tray/baking sheet.
2
Insert bamboo skewers in all the apples and set aside.
3
In a medium pot, combine the sugar, water, glucose/corn syrup and food colouring and stir over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture feels smooth when you rub it between your fingers.
4
When the sugar has dissolved, turn the heat up and wash the sides of the pot down with a pastry brush dipped into clean water to prevent crystals from forming.
5
Allow the caramel to boil until it reaches the hard crack stage (150°c/310°F).
6
Carefully dip the apples into the hot candy mixture and place on the baking paper to set and cool for approximately an hour before serving.

MUST DO JOBS IN OCTOBER Don’t put away the gardening gloves just yet Tidy borders - Keep on weeding and have a gentle tidy up in your borders but do try to resist the temptation of a thorough spring clean. Leave seedheads for the birds if you don’t want to collect them and as much cover as you can bear for wildlife who will appreciate the winter shelter. Fallen leaves can be left to rot down (or collected for leaf mould), however diseased material is another matter; make it a priority to clear and burn it to prevent pests and diseases overwintering courtesy of your kind hospitality! Put the rest of your garden rubbish (apart from woody stems) in the compost. Start your compost - If you haven’t already done so, start your compost going by buying a bin or building a partially enclosed area for a heap. It is vital to replace the goodness in soil after a hefty growing season and autumn produces masses of garden waste that will put invaluable organic richness back into the ground for next spring. Add a variety of different materials; spent vegetable and bedding plants, herbaceous leftovers, thatch, moss and cuttings from the lawn, weeds (but not the roots unless they have been through a shredder), hedge clippings, kitchen peelings and tea bags are ideal. Turn once a week or so if you can and NEVER add diseased or pest-ridden material (such as diseased rose petals - heinous culprits) to your compost - it is a warm and welcoming nirvana for unwelcome guests who will reappear with a vengeance next year! Onto the bonfire with them without a qualm... Clean out the greenhouse - It really is worth cleaning out your greenhouse thoroughly now
your greenhouse crops are over; it will prevent pests from hibernating and leaping into action next spring! Wash the windows inside and out to allow maximum light in over the winter and scrub all benches, fixtures and glazing bars with disinfectant, making sure you hose the whole place down really well, especially dark and dusty corners. For effective fumigation, move all plants outside, shut the windows, light a sulphur candle in the middle of the floor, (retreat at speed!), shut the door and wait until the smoke and fumes have completely dispersed several hours later. Your greenhouse should now be pest free!

Now this is where the going starts to get tough, I hope you love it! A father and son have a car accident and are both badly hurt. They are both taken to separate hospitals. When the boy is taken in for an operation, the surgeon (doctor) says ‘I can not do the surgery because this is my son’. How is this possible? And here’s a one more for you, this one should be a bit easier. You’re running a race and pass the person in 2nd place. What place are you in now?
OUR HEAD SCRATCHERS OF THE MONTH Brain-Teaser, Puzzle, Conundrum, MindBoggler... what ever you call them we all love a riddle! A riddle is a statement or question or phrase having a double or veiled meaning, or in simpler terms a puzzle that must be solved. Now lets all warm up a little bit... What two things can you never eat for breakfast? I hope you’re not stuck already! If you are though see the index for the answer, after you have tried the other two! Right now we’ve finished our stretches try this one for size... A cowboy rides into town on Friday, stays for three days and leaves on Friday. How did he do it?

TROLLS MOVIE COMING SOON Brand new family movie coming to cinemas all over the UK in October 2016. From the creators of Shrek comes DreamWorks Animation’s Trolls, a smart, funny and irreverent comedy about the search for happiness, and just how far some will go to get it. This hilarious film transports audiences to a colorful, wondrous world populated by the overly optimistic Trolls, who have a constant dance in their step and a song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomachs. After the Bergens invade Troll Village, Poppy (Kendrick), the happiest Troll ever born, and the overly-cautious curmudgeonly Branch (Timberlake) set off on a journey to rescue her friends. Together, this mismatched duo embarks on a rescue mission full of adventure and mishaps – trying to tolerate each other long enough to get the job done. Utilizing music to further the film’s narrative, the Trolls soundtrack is produced by Justin Timberlake and features five original songs including songs by Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande, Anna Kendrick and Gwen Stefani, in addition to a number of classic hits from the ‘60s through the ‘80s. Make sure you go see Trolls in your local cinema from 21st October.

BACK PAIN & PREGNANCY Stuart BSc(Hons) MSc(Chiro) DC Consultant Osteomyologist - www.spinalcarecentre.co.uk More years ago than I care to remember, I wrote my final year thesis on back pain in pregnant women. As well as meeting some delightful people, this study opened my eyes to the amazing changes that the human body copes with during pregnancy. Unfortunately, some of those changes involve a great deal of stress upon the spine, making low back pain a common feature of pregnancy. During pregnancy, a woman’s centre of gravity almost immediately begins to shift forward to the front of her pelvis. This displaced weight increases the stress on your joints. As the baby grows in size, her weight is projected even further forward, and the curvature of the woman’s lower back is increased, placing extra stress on the spinal discs. In compensation, the normal curve of her upper spine increases as well. While these changes sound dramatic, pregnancy hormones help loosen the ligaments attached to the pelvic bones. But even these natural changes designed to accommodate the growing baby can result in postural imbalances, making pregnant women more prone to awkward trips and falls. Each year chiropractically trained health care practitioners help many mums to be by relieving the aches and pains caused by the changes in the body during pregnancy. Chiropractic adjustments are safe for pregnant women and their babies and can be especially attractive if you are trying to avoid taking pills to treat the pain. At our clinic, we offer advice on how to lift and carry, how to improve your posture and how to exercise to improve your spinal health. All our Spinal health care practitioners train for a minimum of five years before qualifying The main chiropractic technique is to gently adjust, using our hands, the parts of the spine and joints which are not moving properly. The health care practitoners will use modified techniques to ensure your comfort and safety whilst you
are pregnant. These techniques can be used safely in the later stages of pregnancy and even during labour. One of our clients and mum of two had chiropractic adjustments throughout both her pregnancies in our clinic: “My practitioner was great and I had less back ache during the pregnancy and a hassle-free natural birth. I would definitely recommend it.” Of note her entire family including both her children regularly undergo Chiropractic adjustments in the clinic. In fact, chiropractic care during pregnancy has been shown to significantly reduce the length of the labour. First time mums averaged a 24 per cent shorter labour, while mothers who had already given birth experienced a 39 per cent reduction in the average labour length, compared to those not having chiropractic care (Fallon, 1991). A practitioner trained in Chiropractic aims to make the pregnancy more comfortable and healthy using natural techniques: chiropractic is a drug-free discipline. A US study showed that women who received chiropractic adjustments in their third trimester of pregnancy were able to carry and deliver children with more comfort (Hendryson, 1987). A further US study, showed that chiropractic care reduced the need for pain killers by 50 per cent. Chiropractic care can also help after childbirth. In the eight weeks following labour and delivery, the ligaments that loosened during pregnancy begin to tighten up again. Ideally, joint problems brought on during pregnancy from improper lifting or reaching should be treated before the ligaments return to their pre-pregnancy state to prevent muscle tension, headaches, rib discomfort, and shoulder problems.
