s usual our April edition is packed full of home and garden services to help spruce up your home this spring. After an unlucky month of accidents (To my husband – I’m very sorry for the dent in our front house wall!) we will be using local services ourselves to restore our home to its former glory this month! Sometimes everything happens at once doesn’t it, though I still feel I wasn’t totally to blame!

As I write, we’ve been ‘moving over’ to a new swanky, hands-free phone system in the office.

We look pretty professional with headsets, waving our hands around just because we can. But, as with any new technology, the change has not been without its technical glitches, so please bear with us. Isn’t technology supposed to make life simpler?

It does amaze me how much I have now come to rely on technology. I’d be lost without my superfast broadband and everything available at the touch of a button. How did we ever cope without knowing it all – and immediately?! Any useful (or useless) fact has to be looked up on the internet; dog health, holidays, people and places; it’s endless! Of course website cookies also track where you’re looking, so I’m constantly fed adverts for all of the above. With all of that data floating around, you might be aware that there are new data regulations for businesses from May (called GDPR) that will have a huge impact on how companies store our data and use it. Nicky is our self-appointed data compliance champion at the Handy Mag and has been busy making sure that all of our own business data processes are compliant. It’s one of those things that is absolutely necessary, but we do tend to

Lions Centenary bonanza for local charities are doing some brilliant work in the Malton and Norton area.

Ten local charities have received grants from Malton and Norton Lions as part of the Lions Club International centenary celebrations.

Lion President, Mike Lynch, presented cheques to charities that support a wide range of people in the community, young and old.

Mike said: “This is the first time that Malton and Norton Lions have operated a formal grant scheme and we are delighted that it has been such a great success. It is a pleasure to be able to support local charities who

“The Lions work throughout the year raising funds to support local charities and individuals and we felt as part of our centenary celebrations we wanted to offer grants to a wider range of groups that may not have thought of approaching us for funding in the past, but who want to deliver smaller projects that benefit others in the area.”

Recipients of the Lions Centenary Grants are: Norton Hive Library & Community Hub, Musical Memories CIC, Ryedale Carers Support, Settrington Village Hall, Kirkham Henry Performing Arts CIC, 1st Norton Guides, The Milton Rooms, Swinton Playgroup, Wintringham Village Hall, Ryedale YMCA

Marie Curie Says Thank you!

M

arie Curie’s biggest annual fundraising campaign, The Great Daffodil Appeal, is drawing to a close, and we’d like to thank you so much for all your support!

Once again we’ve had volunteers out in force, collecting donations in return for a daffodil, with all the money helping to fund our local nursing services, our support phone line, and research into end of life care. All of these services are there to help people living with a terminal illness, as well as their loved ones. And most importantly, allowing people to spend their last days at home, where they would most want to be.

The Beast from the East may be a distant memory now, but it did unfortunately hamper our efforts to raise much needed funds, with lots of collections being cancelled the first weekend in March – we certainly didn’t want our wonderful volunteers out collecting in the snow!

With this in mind, I would like to ask that if you do have a few pounds to spare, that you might consider donating to Marie Curie. Even in the freezing conditions, our nurses were still out travelling in the snow to get to the people that needed them.

There are still daffodils available to buy in shops, and there’s always time to do a bit of fundraising yourselves! Whether it’s a bake sale, a quiz night, go yellow at work or school, or go all out and trek the Yorkshire Three Peaks!

Thank you so much to all our volunteers and supporters, we really couldn’t continue without you!

For more information on Marie Curie or how to get involved, contact Jennifer Carmichael on 01904 755260 or email her at Jennifer. carmichael@mariecurie.org.uk

Can you help Yorkshire Air Ambulance at the Tour de Yorkshire?

YAA is this years chosen charity for the Tour de Yorkshire and they are looking for Event Volunteers to help out during the weekend from 3rd-6th May. Why not come and join the celebrations whilst supporting the charity – with no commitment!

Do you recognise these names from the WW1 Roll of Honour? known, married Mary Ellen Russell in July 1920. He bought a property on Hungate where he ran a bicycle and electrical firm with his son William. Edwin died at the age of 73 in 1971.

With 2018 marking the centenary of the end of the First World War, the museum aims to collate this local history research into a book, due to be published in September/October.

F

or the past four years, Beck Isle Museum has been undertaking a research project about the First World War. By June this year, their team of volunteers will have researched over 600 individuals from Pickering who fought in the First World War. The starting point was the Pickering Roll of Honour, which names every individual from Pickering who served in the Navy, Royal Flying Corps, the Royal Army Medical Corps, the VAD, WAC as well as the various regiments which made up the British Army.

Volunteers then used various resources to piece together an individual’s history including census records, parish records and service records. Many military records were destroyed during the Second World War, which means that it is often impossible to find details of an individual’s military career.

The museum is extremely grateful to those who have been in touch to share stories of relatives who fought in the war. The team has gained a fuller picture of what happened during the war and what people did afterwards.

For example, the team learnt about Private Edwin Best, after his granddaughter contacted us. Prior to enlisting, Edwin worked as a horseman at the Mill, Allerston. After joining up in 1917 he served in France and Belgium, as part of the 10th Battalion Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry. Edwin was wounded in action in the Ypres Salient. After initial treatment, he was transferred to England by ship and admitted to hospital in Nottingham where his leg was amputated.

In August 1918 he was fitted with an artificial leg. He received the Victory and British War Medals and the Silver War Badge, which was awarded to all those who were discharged as a result of illness or wounds.

After his discharge, Edwin returned to Wrelton and started to repair and sell bicycles and later ran the village garage. Edwin, or Ted as he was always

The following names from the Roll of Honour are proving challenging to research and we are keen to find out more about these individuals: E, Harper, listed in the Yorkshire Gazette Roll of Honour; 5th Yorkshire Regt.

Private S. Jackson, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; Yorks. Regt.

F, Kirk, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; Northumberland Fusiliers John Marshall, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; Army Service Corps T Massheder, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; Army Service Corps Reverend James Kendell Mitchelson, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; East Yorks. Yeomanry Chaplains.

W Mitchell, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; Yorks. Regt George Richard Woods, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; King’s Own Yorkshire Light Infantry William (Bill) Ward, listed in the Pickering Roll of Honour; Army Service Corps If one of the above names is one of your ancestors and you would be prepared to share information, photographs (to be digitised) or stories about your relative, please contact the museum on 01751 473653 or email info@ beckislemuseum.org.uk.

Decorating With Dark Colours

By Katherine Sorrell

Deeply dramatic interiors create a striking effect and are oh-so-fashionable. Do you dare to take the plunge?

Don’t be scared of the dark…

• Dark colours can look warm, cosy and inviting, as well as intensely luxurious and sophisticated. They work especially well in a WC, snug, library, dining room, home office or games room, but – with a bit more decorative courage – are hugely effective in living rooms and bedrooms, too.

• What colours to choose? Charcoal grey is intense and eye-catching, yet neutral enough to work as a backdrop for most furnishings. If you prefer a colour, however, navy, burgundy or forest green will make even more of an impact – but will be harder to coordinate with.

• If all-over dark is simply too much, add drama to a room by painting or papering just one ‘feature’ wall in a distinctive deep colour, or perhaps choosing one or two key items of furniture with which to inject moody character.

• Remember that surface textures affect how light or dark a room feels. Matt surfaces absorb light whereas glossy surfaces reflect it. Painting floorboards black, for example? Choose a highgloss finish to shine light all around.

• The deeper the background, the more other colours ‘pop’ out in front of it. Raspberry pink, crimson, lime, orange, emerald and mustard are all great choices for accessories in a dark colour scheme.

These days most homeowners suffer from a lack of storage space. So many precious items that need to be kept – but where to store it all? That’s where Yorkshire Loft Ladders come in.

The company, based locally, offers homeowners the opportunity to maximise their storage space with a loft ladder, 50 sq ft of boarding and a light all fully fitted in less than a day from just £277 + VAT. But it’s not just the affordability of the package the company offers that makes Yorkshire Loft Ladders stand out as manager Mark Hodson explains: ‘Our watchwords are Quality,

Integrity and Value. Quality in the materials that we use for all our installations and the fact that all our loft packages are fitted by time served tradesmen so our customers are assured of the best job. Integrity in that we will turn up at the time we say and make sure the house is spotless when we leave, and Value in that we offer our services at a price people can afford. Our business relies on referrals and we got a huge amount of our calls from people who have been referred to us by our existing customers - that simply wouldn’t happen if we didn’t adhere to our overriding principles.

At the end of the day the old adage that happy customers

lead to more happy customers is true and we work hard to make that happen for every installation we carry out!’

So, if you want to make use of your loft space, however big or

small, call Mark on 0800 612 8359 and he’ll be happy to pop round and give you a no obligation quote so you too can make use of your loft!

End Of Our 'Throw Away' Society?

Wherever we look we are reminded of our throw away culture. Whether it be the discarded plastics clogging up our oceans, the sweatshop conditions in an Asian clothing factory churning out wear once £1.99 t-shirts, or the 5 year old washing machine fly tipped in our country lanes.

Even our major household purchases, such as a sofa, once seen as a lifetime purchase, are not immune. Vast sofa showrooms selling three seaters for £299, made from the cheapest materials, minimal lifespan built in as standard.

Last year 672000 tonnes of furniture was discarded into landfill in the UK alone. Valuable resources wasted. None more so than the timber frames around which the soft furnishing is built.

A wasted resource with such far reaching global consequences.

Of course there is an alternative: to re-upholster existing furniture. Often though, the cost of the skilled

1000s metres of top designer curtain and upholstery fabric at very affordable prices.

labour required makes the price for this almost as much as buying a new replacement, making people feel that ‘throw away’ is the better option. Yet reupholstery, to all intense and purposes is ‘new’.

The original frame and other recyclable materials are preserved and, if necessary, repaired by your upholsterer and then the item is rebuilt as new to your specific design, fabric and finish.

Jody Gray Upholstery is your local upholsterers located at Wath Court near Hovingham. Run by husband and wife team Graham and Jody, all aspects of upholstery service are offered from helping you to choose your fabric and finish, simple recovers, full furniture rebuilds and even bespoke furniture made to order. And if you fancy trying your hand at the upholstery craft yourself why not book a place on a weekend footstool course.

Whatever the piece, consider re-upholstery before committing it to landfill. Jody Gray will create a newly designed addition to your home at less expense than buying new. Vital resources saved and landfill avoided. Let’s end the ‘throw away’ society. Love the planet? Revive it.

Gardening Overhaul Your Lawn

that’s ready for summer, it’s time to get to work.

It has rained so much in recent months that my lawn has taken a battering, though the flower and vegetable beds are starting to pick up.

Over-wet conditions can cause roots to die off and will reduce the oxygen in the soil. Worse still, any areas of the lawn you’ve walked on will have become compacted. Thus, the air spaces in the soil are dramatically reduced, and the heavier your soil is, the worse the problem is likely to be. So for green grass

Check over your lawn mower and see to anything that needs sorting. If necessary, take it to a reputable outlet for a service as soon as possible.

If your grass needs cutting, make sure you don’t set the blades too low for the first few cuts, as this weakens growth and makes weed invasion more likely. After mowing, you can relieve some of the soil compaction to allow air down to the roots, making for better growth and healthier grass. If only small areas are compacted, drive a garden fork into the lawn every 4-6 inches or so, getting the fork tines to a depth of 4-6 inches, then gently ease the handle of the fork back and forth to enlarge each drainage hole.

Next to help drainage, mix some sieved garden soil or loam with horticultural sand (about 1 part soil/loam to 9 parts sand) and brush across the lawn and into the holes you’ve made. If the soil in the garden is quite heavy, the whole lawn will benefit from aerating.

ETS Tree and Landscaping

I recommend you buy, borrow or hire a ‘hollow-time aerator’. This cuts cylinders of soil from your lawn and when filled with the ‘top-dressing’ mix above will result in longer-lasting drainage channels.

Any moss should be removed, so apply moss killer and then rake it all out after the time specified on the pack. The lawn will look worse initially, but it allows more air to the roots of the grass plants and gives them more space to grow and spread too. Lawns that have suffered from waterlogging benefit from a suitable feeding regime with spring lawn food formulated to give the balance of nutrients lawns need now. Granular feeds must be watered in unless it rains shortly after application.

Walking on a very wet lawn soon wears it out and kills off grasses. To repair bald or thin patches, roughen up the areas using a rake and then sprinkle a suitable seed mix on to match the existing grasses. If you’ve not got many patches to sow, you can buy small patch repair packs.

Once all the work is done, keep off your lawn for a few weeks to allow it to take advantage of all that TLC and grow away really well.

TOP TIPS FROM A DENTAL PROFESSIONAL

Does Poor Oral Health contribute to Diabetes, Heart Disease and Dementia ?

R

ecent research is linking common systemic diseases not only to our diet and

by Christine Parker lifestyle but also to our Oral BDS (GDC 72136) Health. Our bodies work as a series of interlinked, complex systems and should not really be treated as separate areas.

The mouth is one of the areas that is often overlooked as an indicator of general health.

A well informed dentist can often see oral signs of common diseases.

Diabetes is often associated with serious gum problems and the link between the two is well established. What isn’t so well known is that by maximising your gum health you can actually improve your general health.

How does that work? When we have inflammation in the body we release certain chemicals that actually cause damage elsewhere in the body, these can travel through the bloodstream.

Bacteria from mouth lesions can also enter the bloodstream and settle elsewhere in the body.

Research has shown diseased lesions in the heart and brain to have bacteria in common with those in the mouth.

So to reduce your risk of illness include a tailored oral healthcare programme in your daily routine. Its easier than you think.

For simple and effective oral health education contact Jan and we’ll help you achieve the best mouth you can.

Food for Life

By Adrian Bishop, Member of Sinnington All Saints' Church PCC

I

n 2005 we visited Langa Township in Cape Town S.A. and were greatly disturbed by the level of poverty we found there. The following year the three churches which make up the Middleton Benefice decided to adopt St Cyprian’s church, Langa, as their overseas mission.

St Cyprian’s is a very poor parish with high unemployment but nonetheless they reach out to the destitute in their community, many of them refugees from countries bordering on South Africa.

We agreed we should support their Soup Kitchen, now the only one still running in the Township.

Making a decision to leave a marriage is the hardest thing someone may ever do We are here to help.

Call Juliet Walker Family Solicitor Mediator & Collaborative Lawyer

2 Market Street , Malton, YO17 7AS

juliet.walker@pearslaw.co.uk www.pearslaw.co.uk

Through fundraising we send about £2,000 a year.

Without our help the Soup Kitchen would close.

At that time, we were asked, why raise money for people overseas? Why not look after our own first?

The answer in 2006 was, because in the UK the Welfare State exists to help the poor and needy.

Fast forward to 2018.

Your Local Hi Tech 3D Cinema

Food banks are everywhere, heavily supported by local churches. A Middlesbrough parish is offering packed lunches to children during school holidays.

These children qualify for free school meals but when the schools close, the children go hungry.

Things have changed in our country. We should all be aware of need in our own communities. The welfare state can no longer meet the demands of the poorest in our society.

Jesus understood about hunger. He fed the five thousand. He declared himself to be ‘the bread of life.’ He also said, ‘Man cannot live by bread alone’. When we contribute to the food bank or any other organisation serving the poor and needy, we also, in some small way, are feeding the spirit by showing that we care.

As we tuck into our hot cross buns this Easter, let us remember why that cross is there and ask ourselves, what does it mean to us today?

Please have a look at our Cycle Forum website www.getryedalecycling.com. You can subscribe to updates, which means that our website will send you an email when we add an article or some cycling news. No, we don’t pass your details on to anyone!

If you don’t use the internet, you can also be involved. Ryedale Cycle Forum is a small group, but we have big ideas for improving cycling in Ryedale. We promote cycling events, cycling routes, and we work towards new routes. We are interested in increasing the number of safe “greenway”, car-free routes between communities, shared by young and old, dog walkers, cycles, prams, horse-riders and nature lovers. Good signs are also very important on such paths, to make sure that everyone is considerate to other path users.

For some busier areas it is more practical to have separate cycle paths, because cycling to work and college etc needs to be faster than walking.

Since Austerity, NYCC Highways have had to focus on motorised traffic; hardly any money has been spent on new cycle routes. But in the long run, cycling is less wear and tear on our roads, much better for air quality, and good for mental and physical health. Ryedale Cycle Forum are looking for new partnerships to use government and private funding to get Ryedale cycling.

Have you got an idea for a cycle or multi-user route? Please contact us at ryedaletownandcountrytrails@outlook. com, or phone Helen (Secretary) on 01751 432447

Volunteering Opportunities Castle Howard is a magnificent 18th century residence set within breathtaking landscape in the heart of North Yorkshire, close to the busy city of York and the market town of Malton.

We are keen to grow our group of friendly and enthusiastic volunteers that help us ensure that our visitors have an excellent experience. We have opportunities, both indoors and outdoors working alongside our House (Chapel) and Gardens teams, sharing stories of our rich history, and bringing to life the amazing collections we hold.

Outdoors, volunteers are able to work alongside our Grounds team assisting with a variety of gardening tasks including rose dead-heading, hoeing, edging and weeding, tidying away the borders, clearing leaves and mulching.

This is a wonderful opportunity to work alongside people with similar interests, develop your knowledge of Castle Howard’s long history and contribute to the preservation and conservation of Castle Howard for future generations to enjoy. No previous experience is required as training will be provided.

How healthy are your dog's eyes?

T

by Battle Flatts Veterinary Clinic

he eyes are very complex organs and thankfully function normally most of the time. Externally the eyes are protected by the eyelids and also the third eyelid (in the corner of the eye).

Healthy eyes: Your dog’s eyes should be open, sparkly clear and free from any discharge or excessive tearing. Inside you can see the coloured part of the eye (the Iris) and the pupil which responds to light. You can also gently draw back the upper eyelids to see the ‘white’ of the eye, which should be just that- white or marginally pink.

However problems can occur and here are some of the common ones: Dry eye – Occurs when there is inadequate production of tears by the tear glands and is normally an immune-mediated condition in dogs. Most commonly this is seen in middle to older aged dogs as well as specific breeds, typical signs include increased levels of thick, yellowish discharge from the eyes, pinkness of inner eyelids and white of eyes. Discomfort may be noticeable, with increased blinking or rubbing of the eyes. Diagnosis of this condition can be made by using a simple test to measure tear production.

Treatment is necessary with an ointment containing ciclosorin which is usually applied twice daily to the affected eye and is lifelong. Keeping the treatment consistent is important for the medication to work and for the eyes to stay comfortable. Many dogs also need lubricants applied regularly throughout the day.

Cataracts – A cataract occurs when the transparent lens inside the eye becomes opaque.

Cataracts affecting the whole of the lens will cause blindness.

Hereditary cataracts can be present at various ages and in a large number of breeds. Cataracts are also commonly seen in diabetic dogs and these develop very quickly, causing blindness in just days or weeks.

Advanced cataracts also cause inflammation inside the eye, which can lead to other problems

including glaucoma (a high pressure inside the eye).

Any eye with a cataract should therefore be monitored regularly. Cataract surgery to restore vision is possible in many cases and will require a referral to a specialist ophthalmologist.

Glaucoma – This is high pressure inside the eye, which causes blindness if not treated appropriately and quickly. Changes you may notice include redness of the white of the eye, a clouding/blueish colour to the cornea or lethargy due to pain. As Such any dog presenting with this sort of “red eye” should be treated as an ocular emergency.

Early diagnosis is the golden rule with eyes, so don’t delay! If your pet is showing any symptoms of eye problems, make an appointment today!

She is always so happy and even smiles when she gets a good tummy rub.

She’s great with other dogs of all shapes and sizes and loves everyone.

A great little character, she is now fully vaccinated, spayed and ready for her forever home.

Don't put your pets at risk ensure vaccinations are up to date!

Dr Sarah Hunter B.Vet Med MRCVS. Station House Vets

Why is vaccinating our pets so important?

VACCINATION AMNESTY Restart your pet’s vaccinations for the price of a booster.

If your pet has missed a vaccination, please call us on 01653 618303

Many of the diseases that we vaccinate against can be fatal. Recently there have been cases of Leptospirosis reported in our area which can be picked up from watercourses, particularly where rats have been, and it can be passed on to humans, known as Weil’s Disease. Leptospirosis causes kidney failure in dogs and is often fatal, but it can be prevented by vaccinating annually. We provide the most up to date version of the leptospirosis vaccine which protects against four strains of the disease.

Are we over-vaccinating?

We follow the WSAVA guidelines on vaccinating dogs that state that the core vaccinations for Distemper, Hepatitis and Parvovirus should be given every three years. We also offer blood testing to check your dog’s titre levels and if levels are still high we wouldn’t need to vaccinate again until the following year. The vaccination against Leptospirosis must be given annually and there is no titre testing available.

Are there any other benefits of performing annual vaccinations?

When your pet has a vaccination we also perform a health check, this allows us to pick up any previously un-noticed problems. We can then advise on the appropriate steps to resolve the problem or provide further diagnostics and treatment. We can also weigh your pet, advise on nutrition and discuss a parasite treatment protocol.

Should I vaccinate against Kennel Cough if my dog doesn't go in kennels?

The name Kennel Cough implies that the disease only occurs in kennels. However, the disease can be transmitted whenever your dog is in contact with other dogs and is spread through droplets when the dog coughs or sneezes. The vaccine doesn’t completely prevent the disease but does reduce the severity of clinical signs and the chance of it spreading to other dogs. Most kennels will require evidence of vaccination.

What about my cat?

Cats also need to be vaccinated annually, especially if they are outdoor cats as they can come into contact with stray cats who may be harbouring fatal diseases.

Some cat diseases can go un-noticed for a long time and only become apparent when the animal is stressed or suffering from another condition, making it even more important to have them checked annually and to keep them up to date with their vaccinations.
