Comments Nick: “Being recognised as Top Rated means a great deal and I’d like to thank all the people locally who helped me to achieve this status. So many people in STOCKTON-ON-TEES would be better off if they sought advice on their finances but often people don’t know who to trust with their hard earned cash. Having a Top Rated adviser on the doorstep has got to make that decision easier!” Independent Financial Advisers help people to manage their finances with a view to achieving their life goals. So if you know you’d like to retire at 55, send your children to university or extend your house an IFA can advise on what you need to save, and where to save it, in order to make this aspiration a reality. Advisers specialise in many different areas from pensions and retirement plans to long-term care, savings and investments and life insurance. Many IFAs also offer advice on mortgages. Nick achieved Top Rated status as a result of having over 15 positive client reviews on VouchedFor.co.uk, the independent website which helps people to find a trusted Independent Financial Adviser, Mortgage Adviser, Solicitor or Accountant. VouchedFor.co.uk is free and easy to use. Visitors search for advisers based on location, qualifications and services provided. Advisers are then listed based on client reviews giving those seeking advice confidence the adviser can be trusted. Continues Nick: “I’m really excited about being Top Rated. It’s great to be recognised for all of my hard work and being named as one of the best in the UK in the Mail on Sunday really added to the feel good factor!” Any client can review their IFA, Solicitor, Accountant or Mortgage Adviser on VouchedFor.co.uk.

Bring your dog to a nice friendly environment to enjoy a little pampering at fluffy pups Ingleby Barwick. We offer a number of things including a puppy package (they can be brought in as soon as they have had their 2nd injections) to get them used to being groomed, handstripping, nail clipping, styling, wash and de-shed and wash alone.

I like to work with the customers to get their dogs exactly how they want them so please don’t hesitate to tell me if there’s anything you would like doing differently. I currently work in an office environment which is relaxed and friendly for all breed types. Handstripping, de-matting, nail clipping all offered.

“As a grandma to my 2 gorgeous grandsons I was introduced to the wonderful world of Baby Sensory where I have been captivated by the quality of the programme. I have witnessed first hand the joy and development of them both as they have progressed and grown. Now I have the amazing opportunity to move in another direction working alongside my wonderful daughter to introduce Baby Sensory to the mums and babies right here.” Judith’s Business Partner and Daughter Gemma started a career in Paediatric nursing from leaving collage. “I went straight to Liverpool John Moores University to do my training then returned home to Middlesbrough to take a post as qualified paediatric staff nurse. I love my job and have gained many great experiences and memories along the way. I remained on the same ward for ten years. Since having my little boy ten months ago my mindset and outlook changed, and I began looking into joining the baby sensory team. After attending the classes with my son, and seeing it was such an amazing opportunity, I have decided to become a class leader for baby sensory and deliver their classes to babies 0-13 months of ages. I am so excited to see where this new venture takes me, and can’t wait to see what the future holds.” Please join Baby Sensory on this fantastic journey and watch your babies shine. We currently have classes available at Ingleby Barwick, Northallerton and Thirsk. For more information contact Gemma or Judith.

Stockton Business Landlord
donates rent to local charity The Mayor was recently invited to cut the ribbon at the grand opening of Gloucester House offices, after a massive renovation has taken place in the heart of Stockton.
Following on from the regeneration work the building celebrated its official opening on Monday 4th July with networking, drinks and canapes provided by ‘Sorcha’s Bakery & Patisserie’ and ‘The Stottie Company’ with guests including representatives from Stockton Council and local business in attendance. Gloucester House was first built in the 18th century, and beams with history and character and has now been renovated into 42 brand new offices by Devlin Walker, Extension and Renovation specialists situated in Beaumont House. After moving back up North from London to start his own telecoms business ‘Reefstream’ Landlord Jeff Highfield first bought the Grade ll* listed Beaumont House, on Stockton’s Church Road, and transformed it from an old restaurant into high specification offices which finally led to Jeff opening his second building, Gloucester house right next door.
www.gossip-uk.com
Jeff spoke about the launch, saying “Following the impressive regeneration of Stockton Town Centre, North Shore and Beaumont House, we’re thrilled to be officially opening Gloucester House.” “The building has been designed to be a state of the art hub for businesses - it has all the mod cons needed to effectively run a business, including access control with key less entry, High Definition CCTV, exceptionally high speed internet and a new telephone system.” Jeff is donating the first months rent from each tenant to the local Butterwick Hospice and still has spaces of various sizes available for those who are on the hunt for a new office. For more information on Gloucester House, and how the serviced offices could help your business, call 01642 424700 or visit www. gloucesterhouse.co.uk.

Swim Wear with GOSSIP
MAGAZINE
As the holiday season fast approaches, a woman’s search for the perfect swimsuit can be quite a challenge. But no need to panic - Once you know what works for your body type you’ll find the most flattering swimwear in no time, and one that you can feel comfortable in whatever your size.
s
Try busy patterns, frills, and embellishment to give a little enhancement.
'
Pear
You can pretty much wear any style, regardless of how supportive. Stick to sets and suits that have a bit of padding or boning to add shape.
Apple
Padded cups with subtle cleavage-enhancing detail are a good idea to balance your body. To divert attention from your hips and bottom, go for a bikini or one piece with a fold over waistband.
Create your dream waistline with a structured one-piece. Halter neck will also give extra support for those with a bigger bust. Avoid pale shades, strive for bright colours, or a bold black.
Ì Č
Be daring! You can wear anything, draw attention to your body and highlight your shape with patterns, drapes, ruffles or pleats. Go for swimwear that emphasises your tiny waist.
A bikini top with hidden support, and low cut bottoms will accentuate your small waist. If you're not looking to exaggerate your curves avoid swimwear with heavy designs and detail.

After losing a massive

Chris has been dealing with the problem of overeating for 20 years. I’ve done every diet out there,he says. Atkin’s worked but when I stopped the weight came back on. I lost three stones in 15 weeks but put it back on along with extra weight.Chris hit rock bottom a few years ago when he got on the scales and saw that he was 20 stones and 1lb. On June 15 2009 he started on the 20 week programme, weighing 20 stone 2lb and with the goal of reaching 13 stone. Weekly appointments involve a 20 minute ultrasound treatment to mobilise the fat, followed by a skin tightening massage ^OPJO ÄYTZ HUK [PNO[LUZ [OL ZRPU ZV there’s no sagging or stretch marks when weight is lost.The third part is a nutritional WYVNYHTTL [OH[ PU]VS]LZ [HRPUN Ä]L protein food sachets every day to keep blood sugar levels constant. At the end of the programme he’d shed 7 stones 2lbs and his waist had shrunk from 44 to 32inch, all in just 20 weeks. 0[ ^HZ HU HTHaPUN MLLSPUN 0[ ^HZ [OL ÄYZ[ time in 15 years that I’d felt in control of my eating and that I’d found something that appeared to work. Chris is now a stable weight of 12 stone 7lb but his weight isn’t the only thing that has changed his life. My outlook and attitude to life changed and I knew that this was the opportunity to do something new. I want to help people who are addictive overeaters not only to lose weight but understand why they do what they do.
So in July 2011 he opened [OL ÄYZ[ :PS]LYSPUR *SPUPJ PU Newcastle which now treats over 100 patients each week. He now has a second clinic in Carlisle and a third in Berwick upon Tweed. The latest clinic to be opened is in the recently refurbished Gloucester House in Stockton’s historic quarter. >OPSL OL»Z [OL ÄYZ[ UVU TLKPJ [V IL granted a licence to open such a clinic he works with a team of GP doctors and medical staff. He also joined a mentoring programme so he could start looking at the mental side of overeating and won coach of the year at the Coaching Training and Consulting Conference this year. He hopes this will become an integral part of the treatment offered at the clinic. Alevere is the physical solution but there also needs to be the psychological solution, he says. I’ve got 20 years of personal experience of overeating. I want the clinic to be as renowned for weight loss treatment as the Priory Clinics are is for drugs and alcohol rehabilitation.

This special day is significant for all of the families and for some it was the second and even third event. This annual event is a highlight in The Montessori Peoples’ academic calendar and the whole class look forward to this each year. Nursery owner, Michelle Tudor said: “It is always sad to say goodbye to our children at the end of each year, but we are confident they have enjoyed every day they have spent with us – most being with us since babies.” His Worshipful the Mayor of Thornaby, Councillor Steve Walmsley added:”
“I am absolutely delighted to be asked to attend this ceremony, and would like to thank the staff at The Montessori People for the work they do which is second to none. Of course the real stars of the show where the children who were an absolute delight and a testament to the work the excellent staff do. The atmosphere was terrific and if we could bottle it up it would be worth a fortune. I think I enjoyed myself more than the children did.” The Montessori People Nursery School is based in the Highflyers Children's Centre in Thornaby and has achieved an Outstanding award for early learning and education last year, with their Preschool lead teacher ‘Miss Hayley’ being shortlisted as 'Nursery Practitioner of the Year’ shortly after.
