THORNTON CLEVELEYS Your FREE Local Community & Business Directory Hello and welcome to the latest edition of LINK Mag! Finally, the new football season is back underway. The phenomenal Olympic games might have kept us busy but we can’t wait to see the two local teams in action this term. Good luck to both the Seasiders and Cod Army, I’m sure you’ll both do us all proud! The World Firework Championships return in September too, with pyrotechnic experts wowing locals and tourists alike in the skies above the promenade on 7, 14, 21 & 28 September. And don’t forget to see the best lights show in the world. The Illuminations switch on is 31 August 2012 and lasts for 66 nights. I wonder who will flick the switch this year! Our NEW business index is in this edition too. Designed to help you quickly and simply find the business you’re looking for at a glance, it can be found near the back of the magazine just inside from the classified pages. Congratulations to the winners of last month’s competitions. Dawson Jones of Fleetwood won our Where Am I? Competition, so well done - £50 is on its way to you! Also, Barbara Simpson won the James Jackson WIN Your MOT draw. A pat on the back to you both! Don’t forget, LINK-Magazine also offers competitive leaflet print and distribution for up to 96,000 homes and businesses across the Fylde Coast, as well as offering FREE ‘What’s On’ listings for most local events.

‘I haven’t moved in years and don’t know where to begin.’ ‘I live miles away from my parents and don’t know how I can help them.’ ‘I want to stay in my own home but need to change it to suit how I am now.’ If this sounds like you, there is a new service in the Fylde that can help. Supported Moves specialises in helping elderly or less-able people to downsize, declutter and relocate. Whether you are just thinking about moving or have already decided it is right for you, it is never too soon to call Supported Moves for a free consultation. We can help, from looking at your options and finding a new home, to helping you get ready to move by decluttering cupboards, wardrobes and garages. We can pack and unpack at the new home – imagine walking in to find your clothes hung up, books on shelves, curtains on rails and even your kitchen tidied away. All you need do is put the kettle on and relax in your new home! If you want to stay in your own home we can adapt it to be a safe and comfortable living space, working through a safety checklist. Call Margaret today on 07999 063407 or visit www. supportedmoves.co.uk to see how we can help.

Tolleys’ Ryecroft Hall Has been managed by current owners Clive Tolley and his wife Diana since 1996. Set in the picturesque country village of Hambleton, just four miles from Poulton-le-Fylde, this venue was perfect for professional chef Clive to develop the restaurant utilizing his culinary and management skills. Sixteen years on, the property has been extended and the entire building has been refurbished. Clive’s reputation as a top chef is now well known, and he continues to create menus using fresh local products to tempt the taste buds at affordable prices. A one-time chef instructor in the RAF and senior chef lecturer at Birmingham College of Food he continues to pass on his knowledge and skills with the very successful ‘Night’s in the Kitchen’. Here guests are invited into the restaurant’s extensive kitchen where they are taught techniques and dishes to use at home whilst sampling copious amounts of food and wine all for £20.00 per session.
At Tolleys’, menus have been created for all occasions to tempt your taste buds. From traditional Sunday lunches to table d’hote with a la carte dishes, they offer a wide selection of meats, fish, poultry and vegetarian food to suit all tastes.

In the largest of the function suites, the Lancaster Room, the décor is more contemporary with state-of-the-art furnishings. A high-tech sound and lighting system, specially designed dance floor and disco lighting make it perfect for wedding receptions, club installations, formal banqueting and private parties. With its comfortable reception and bar area, the venue remains a popular choice. It can seat up to 100 people for formal dining or 140 for buffets starting at £7.00.

It’s time to Listen The digital revolution has made hearing aids much smaller and more advanced than we could have possibly imagined, even 5 years ago. For cutting background noise, the best technology, developed and improved over the last few years, was known as adaptive dual microphone technology. The very latest development in hearing aid wireless technology now facilitates communication of dual microphones from left and right hearing aids, in real time. Combining the outputs from dual microphones in this way allows the hearing aid user to literally ‘zoom in’ on preferred speech and cut out more noise than has ever been possible.
This technology is helping our patients to achieve more than double the satisfaction in noise with their new digital hearing aids compared to their older hearing aids. At Hear2 we pride ourselves on our patient satisfaction rating. Our advice and hearing aid recommendation is always tailored to individual’s lifestyle needs, budget, style preferences and handling ability.
We have an excellent 2 for 1 offer at the moment on Unitron and Phonak products which includes those with the new wireless microphone technology. We also have a very useful information publication called ‘The Guide to Better Hearing’ available free of charge, to anyone who wishes to call in or phone for a copy.

Non-surgical treatments have become increasingly popular for both women and men over the past decade. A browse on the internet can leave you confused and baffled as to which clinic, or treatment, to choose to improve your appearance. By far the commonest non-surgical treatments offered by most clinics are anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers. Anti-wrinkle injections are mainly used to treat the upper face and to improve expression lines on the forehead, brow and around the eyes. It works by relaxing the muscle in these areas before softening the lines that have formed over the years. With regular treatment, these lines can actually disappear. Indeed there are a number of different brands of anti-wrinkle injections but they all essentially work in the same way.
SL
Dermal filler is generally used to treat the lower part of the face, especially lines around the nose, mouth, upper lip and chin areas. Dermal fillers are also used to give volume and shape to both upper and lower lips. There is a huge range of branded fillers, but the most well known is Restylane - the most trusted and recommended filler on the market. Fillers are injected along the facial lines to help lift and smoothen their appearance. Essentially they replace the hyaluronic acid in the skin that has been lost with age. At SL Medical we take the time to understand and address our client’s needs and expectations before taking any decision to treat. That is why we offer all our clients a free, no obligation consultation and provide expert advice on the range of treatments we offer. A fully qualified medical doctor performs all treatments. Visit our website at www.slmedical.co.uk for more information and testimonials from just a few of our clients.

Optometrists around the country are joining in a national campaign to raise awareness of the importance of eye health. Led by the Association of Optometrists (AOP), the campaign aims to encourage parents not to overlook their children’s eye health this summer and to include a sight test in their ‘back to school’ routine. Up to 1 million children in the UK will return to school this year with an undiagnosed vision problem. Poor eyesight can have a significant effect on children’s ability to learn and on their behaviour – yet often goes unrecognised by teachers, parents and by the children themselves. The importance of good eye health cannot be underestimated. Roberts & Quinn Opticians urge parents to remember that taking their children to have their eyes checked is just as important as the trip to the dentist, or
having their feet measured. This should ideally happen around the age of four, or even before, as problems detected this young can be corrected more easily. Sight testing at an early age could also prevent wasted opportunities as the child enters school – as a child with undiagnosed sight issues may not be able to learn properly. Optometrist Polly Dulley, who is leading the national AOP campaign, said: “The sooner that eye problems are detected, the better the likely outcome. Many childhood eye conditions, such as lazy eye and squint may be treated if they are picked up early. If eye problems are identified and treated, it can make a difference that lasts a lifetime. A free NHS sight test is available from any local high school optometrist. Toddlers and young children do not need to be able to read to have their eyes checked as optometrists are able to carry out an eye test using pictures.

Postcard from Cleveleys
This month we’re starting on an optimistic mood for an Indian Summer as we approach September! It was always boiling when I went back to school for the start of term, so let’s hope it will be in 2012. At the time of writing, the new Classic Vehicle Event is ready to roll on 19 August. Booking has closed and a packed day is arranged on the high street and promenade for all the family. Fingers crossed for fine weather! Work has started on the bus station at Cleveleys, which will be closed for a few weeks while the new bays are built and improvements made to lighting, the tarmac relaid and new toilets built. The new car park at Jubilee Gardens is expected to be complete for October.
There’s a new online events calendar too for you to keep up to speed with what’s happening on the Fylde Coast, including not just events but also meetings and more. You can find it on the website www. visitCleveleys.info, with local developments and community news. You can subscribe for email updates to make sure that you don’t miss out!
If you’ve got anything to tell us just email jane@theRabbitPatch.co.uk or ring 07932 143431.

Thornton Cleveleys RUFC 50
The new season is fast approaching for Thornton-Cleveleys RUFC and there is lots of excitement and expectation for the next campaign. The season starts on Saturday the 1st of September when both the 1st and 2nd teams host their opening match ups. Thanks to a lot of persistence from the executive committee TCRUFC now have two pitches up and running down at Thornton YMCA which is of great benefit to the club; previously whenever two matches have been scheduled at home, the 2nds have travelled to Fleetwood, Blackpool or Stanley Park to play their games! Now the lads can play on home turf where they belong! Thanks for the hard work guys. The games kick off at 2.15pm for the 2nds and 3pm for the 1sts.
to disappoint and is a brilliant opportunity to get out with the family and have some fun, the sun will be shining...hopefully and they’ll be lots of stuff going on to keep everyone happy so come along and join us. The days proceedings start from 10.30am onwards so get yourself down to Thornton YMCA for what will be a fantastic day.
As the season nears ever closer, TCRUFC have events planned ready to entertain the masses, before the official league gets into full swing. On the 11th of August Thornton-Cleveleys RUFC once again host The Annual Robbie McKendrick Super 10’s Tournament where 8 teams complete for two trophies; The Hesketh Cup and The Robbie McKendrick Trophy. This day never fails
As ever, everyone is welcome down to ThorntonCleveleys to watch and support the teams but if you fancy getting involved and playing Rugby come down to training on either Mondays or Wednesdays, training starts at 6.45pm and finishes around 8.30pm. More details on fixtures and events can be found on our website; www. thorntonrugby.com. We hope to see you soon!
As well as the 10’s tournament TCRUFC have another big club day coming up, the week after the 10’s, on the 18th of August. Bolton RUFC are travelling down to take on the lads in two friendly games, Bolton 1sts vs TC 1sts and Bolton 2nds vs TC 2nds. Both Bolton teams are in higher leagues than Thornton-Cleveleys respectively so this will be a tough test for the players but one they are relishing to take on. Games will start at 2.15pm so make sure you’re there for the first competitive 15’s fixtures of the new season.

Paul Galley
‘Diary of a local Councillor’ Paul Galley is a Councillor for Anchorsholme in Blackpool and each month he writes a weekly diary of what he has been up to. Monday: This afternoon I visited the Over 50’s Bingo Club which is held at Sevenoaks Community Centre. It’s always a brilliant afternoon as the people there are so friendly. Alongside the Bingo I had the opportunity to discuss with the members different issues that are concerning them in the area. In the evening I attended ‘The Friends of Anchorsholme Park” meeting. We discussed what ground work needs to be done, and it has been agreed that the group meet on the last Saturday of every month at 10am to help weed the flower beds in the Park. Everyone is welcome to join in, so if you can make it please come along, you will be made to feel very welcome with a free cup of tea from the cafe in the park and lots of fun as we tidy the park up. So please do come along, this is a group I’m really proud of in what we will do to make Anchorsholme Park one of the best in the Fylde. Tuesday: I spent the first part of the day working at my recruitment business. In the evening I attended a wonderful Scouts award ceremony at Anchorsholme Methodists. I am a Chairman of the Anchorsholme Scout Group and it was a privilege to see such brilliant children who are very enthusiastic about all the Scouts offer them and achieve so much by going. If anyone knows a boy or girl who would like to join, please call me on 01253 826679 and I’ll gladly pass on all the information you need to join this great group. Wednesday: Today was a busy day that I spent out and about in Anchorsholme. In the morning I called the numbers at the Bingo club at St Teresa’s. The club is steadily growing in numbers which is brilliant to see as I have been attending the club since its creation over a year ago (and
58
my bingo calling has improved no end). In the afternoon I visited a couple of residents who have had issues with the pavements around their street. It’s been a problem recently where pavements have been dug up and replaced half with paving stones and half with tarmac. If anyone has any problems with the paving in there area, please contact myself or Councillor Tony Williams and we’ll be there to help you. I also went to have a look at the half barrel planters on Rockville Avenue that I’ve organised. I’m so proud of these planters and the plan is to introduce more next year (mainly where Denville Avenue meets Idlewood Place and Glenarden Avenue). Thursday: In the evening I had a meeting with some of the members of ‘The Friends of Eastpines Park Friends Group. We discussed our plans for our summer fair day on the 25th August in the park. If you can make it please do come along, the fair promises to be very special this year. In the evening I held our monthly surgery, and it was brilliant as I had several people turn up. It’s great to talk to people face to face, and it gives me a great sense of achievement to be able to help people with their issues. Our surgery is held on the first Thursday of the month at All Saints Church on Valeway Avenue, between 6.00pm and 7.00pm. Friday: In the afternoon I attended a Blackpool Transport Meeting in the afternoon. I really enjoy these meetings as transport is a passion of mine it’s very rewarding to ask the board challenging questions as to what’s working and what isn’t. Saturday: Today I helped out at my local church, Anchorsholme Methodists. I went onto the roof and helped them clear out all the sludge, leaves and general debris that has collected over the past few months. I love the variety that being the local councillor gives and today was a classic example where every day brings something new.
Many thanks Paul Galley Councillor for Anchorsholme
