Cloudy2Clear Windows – Service With A Smile!

It’s been a crazy few months for Cloudy2Clear Windows. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes – not the frames has grown rapidly as homeowners take advantage of their services.

Branch Manager Roger Bonnick feels that it’s all about service. ‘Our product is simple. If your double glazing is 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 5 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving people money, although that obviously helps. Many

tradespeople have struggled since last year and I honestly feel that during the good times a minority perhaps didn’t focus on customer care as much as they should have done.

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.

I often get comments back from customers on how they really didn’t expect that sort of service which, in a way, is very sad for the service industry as a whole.’

Cloudy2Clear service the Lancaster, Morecambe & Carnforth areas and Roger is finding that his 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.’

So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Roger a call for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!

Rosemere Cancer Foundation Effective treatment remains a priority within the NHS but it is expensive and there is little left over for non-essential items and facilities that may make all the difference to a patient’s experience of the treatment process.

The Rosemere Cancer Foundation, founded in 1997 when the cancer centre opened exists to provide those extras wherever possible. It is your local cancer charity. Rosemere supports the regional specialist cancer centre at Royal Preston Hospital, as well as all the local cancer units across this part of the North West. Cancer patients from the Lake District can all benefit from the services that Rosemere provides.

Rosemere supports patients during treatment by providing additional facilities and services in a clinical setting wherever they are being treated.

Rosemere’s target is to raise £800.000 in 2014 to help fund research, patient welfare projects, additional equipment and training right here on your door step, to help give these cancer patients the best possible care.

Lancaster News

August Fest line up announced Live music, family fun and great food and drink combine once again at this year’s Halton Festival. Now in its second year, the event attracted over 1,000 people in 2013, and organisers are inviting everyone back for another summer celebration on Saturday August 9th.

The playing fields at the Centre will be the setting for the free daytime event, featuring up to 20 stalls, kids activities, international food, hand crafted local ale and plenty more besides. The festival also hosts the annual skate competition on one of the best skate parks in the north west.

BMX, scooter or skateboard – a £5 entry fee gets you in the running to compete for some great prizes.

The outdoor stage will play host to bands and singers from the Lancaster area, including sets from Killer Bunny, Stripped Back, Charlie Galloway, Blackheart Afterglow, Schooltrip and The Intensely Staring Cats.

In the evening, the fun moves inside The Centre with music from Morecambe indie rockers Joe McCorriston and the Blockbuster Blues, York genre hoppers Grinny Grandad, and Manchester’s award winning reggae/rock/ska four piece Jeremiah Ferrari. Entry to the evening show, from 8pm, is £10.

Co-organiser Adam Lucas said: “The response to last year’s festival was fantastic, so we couldn’t resist doing it again. “Whether you’re kicking back with a beer and a burrito enjoying the live music, browsing the independent stalls which offer arts, crafts, cakes and cards and more besides, or braving the rodeo, you’re bound to find something you like. ‘We’re really pleased with our hand picked music line-up as well, with acts we’ve enjoyed seeing at other gigs and festivals. We want everyone to get into the festival spirit, relax and soak up the atmosphere before the party continues into the evening.’

16

Jeramiah Ferrari fuse reggae, rock, ska, punk, and more to create a sound influenced by the likes of Bob Marley and Sublime, yet unique enough to call their own. The band has been touring heavily across the UK, supporting reggae and ska heavyweights The English Beat, The Blockheads and Neville Staple. Their release last year of The Dubby Rock EP received strong radio support across the UK and reached number 4 in the Itunes Reggae Charts. 2014 will see them playing The Willowman Festival with The Wailers and Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show, and we’ve managed to secure them in Halton as well.

BBC 6 Music’s Tom Robinson described then as an ‘extraordinary band’, and their single The Good Girl has had over 30,000 hits on Youtube.”

Other highlights at the event will be Greenlands Farm, The Apothecary cocktail bar, bouncy castles, site art, a dance display, Go Burrito, and Enjoy A Ball. Mr Lucas added: ‘We very much welcome volunteers who can help set up and break down the festival and help out on the day, so if you can spare a few hours we’d love to hear from you. We also have spaces left for stalls so if you think you can bring something unique to the festival, email us on Hfest@hotmail.co.uk.’

More information about the festival can be found on Facebook.

The daytime event runs from 11am until 6.30pm and entry is free of charge. Tickets for the evening show will be available from June from The Greyhound Pub in Halton, the Coffee Shop at the Centre (during opening hours), and Go Burrito in Lower Church Street, Lancaster.

The Great British Outdoor Music Festival....Indoors

Experience the British music festival experience without the threat of rain or trips to the portaloos of doom as The Ferret kicks off it’s annual indoor turfed music festival Glastonferret in Preston this month Real grass on the floor of the venue, wristbands, hats, wellies, barbeques, ice creams, hay bales, scrumpy and above all... some amazing bands!!.

Once again Glastonferret returns to The Ferret to bring the classic outdoor festival vibe to Preston for those of an agrophobic nature.

The event takes place Friday 4th July / Saturday 5th July / Sunday 6th July, once again moving from the old dates taking place the same weekend as Glastonbury in order to avoid treading on the Family Eavis’ collective toes and stealing their crowd.

Rounding off the whole shebang on Sunday 6th July are FOLKS from Manchester.

There’s not much space left in classic rock n roll, that heavily populated area once occupied by the Beatles, Stones and all manner of other bands but somehow Folks have carved out a niche all of their own.

Headlining Friday 4th July will be KEYS of Aberystwyth, having risen from the ashes of the much lauded Murry The Hump – once labelled by Alex James of Blur as ‘the best new band in Britain’, counting Damien Hirst and the late Joe Strummer as fans and notching up several John Peel sessions – Keys are a band whose musical pedigree cannot be argued with.

Other acts set to play over the weekend include Go Around Captain, Gideon Conn, Sky Valley Mistress, Three dimensional tanx, Richard Lomax, The Happy Soul, Bird to Beast, Rook and The Ravens, The Jackpot Golden Boys, I Am Your Autopilot, Bill Orrick, The Jackpot Golden Boys, Firstnamefrank and many more.

Saturday night will see the return of the mighty MIDDLEMAN from Leeds as headliners. Crowds at Middleman shows 18

are notorious for stage invasions, crowd surfing, relentless dancing and mosh pits, think somewhere between a club night and a punk gig. But there’s more to them than just bone-rattling bass and shout-along choruses. With layered lyrics and catchy choruses these are songs you can dance or cry to.

Lancaster Music Festival 2014 Now in its 6th year, Lancaster Music Festival is being extended by 2 days to take place from 9th to 13th October 2014. The festival will kick off with a launch party on the Thursday evening!

Despite efforts in previous years to try to wrap up LMF on Sunday night we have found that it continues into the week, so we now officially give up and accept this city now has its own unofficial Bank Holiday weekend!

So come along to a huge variety of performances from local, regional, national and international acts.

Already more venues, more acts, more of the time, more music, more madness!

Virtually all the shows are free. The ales are not free but are super. There will be a Festival Ale courtesy of Thwaites Brewery and brand new for this year an special blend of Festival Coffee, courtesy of Atkinsons Coffee Roasters.

Lancaster News

Put A Spring In Your Step and Enter Race For Life In Lancaster WITH warmer weather and lighter evenings on the horizon, women in Lancaster are being urged to put a spring in their step by entering Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life.

Taking part in Race for Life at Lancaster University is a great way for women of all shapes and sizes to enjoy the outdoors and get a little more active as they prepare for their 5k event. Committing to take part, and encouraging their mums, grans, daughters, sisters and friends to join them, gives participants a target to aim for, in terms of getting a bit fitter and raising money to beat cancer sooner.

This year, Race for Life in Lancaster takes place on Sunday, July 20 with the 5k event. Jennifer Ward, Cancer Research UK’s Lancaster Event Manager, said: ‘Race for Life is not competitive and it’s not about being fit or fast. It’s about thousands of women coming together to show cancer who’s boss. You don’t need to pound the pavements or be decked out in lycra to do your bit. Participants can choose to walk, jog, run or even dance their way around the course.

Whichever way they reach the finish line, they are united by their determination to beat cancer.’

Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life, in partnership with Tesco, is an inspiring women-only series of 5k events which raises millions of pounds every year to fund research to help beat 200 types of cancer. Although the number of people being diagnosed with cancer is going up - largely due to the fact that people are living longer and cancer is predominantly a disease of old age - the

22

good news is that, thanks to research, survival rates have doubled in the past 40 years. More people across the North West are now beating the disease than ever before.

Last year, 905 women took part in Race for Life in Lancaster and raised a fantastic £45,108. This year, organisers need 1000 women and girls to stride out to help raise £40,000.

Jennifer added: ‘You don’t need to embark upon a tough training regime – unless you really want to! A gentle walk is a great form of exercise, and with lighter evenings on the way, it’s the perfect time to enjoy the fresh air, get fit and gear up for the Race for Life experience. The atmosphere and excitement on the day will get everyone’s blood pumping! Becoming more active has benefits that continue well after the event, as research shows that even regular, moderate physical activity can help reduce the risk of cancer. Not only does it help to maintain a healthy body weight but it also has a protective effect in itself.’

What is NHW and how does it operate?

NHW (Neighbourhood Watch ) is about watching and caring. Not snooping or curtain twitching. It’s about looking after each other and recreating that community spirit which we all long for

help and advice from the police, the co-ordinator will receive information about incidents likely to affect the neighbourhood. This could be information about burglars operating in the area, reports of bogus doorto-door ‘salesmen’ etc.

When neighbours unite and act together it means that many eyes and ears are ready to pick up on anything that happens in the neighbourhood that could cause worry, concern or impact on quality of life. This in turn will assist to reduce crime and antisocial behaviour leading to increased reassurance and make the community a safer place to live. By working together, neighbourhoods can band together to improve the local environment by addressing local issues including vandalism, graffiti, fly tipping, poor lighting and a lack of local amenities.

Joining or starting a NHW scheme gives you the chance to play a vital role in your community, and to make a difference. The result is something we all want - a better quality of life. The NHW sign is not only a warning to would-be criminals. It is also the sign of a united community where people care for each other.

How does it work? Everybody who joins a NHW scheme will play an important role in making their neighbourhood a more secure, friendly and pleasant place to live in. Each scheme is run by a local ‘coordinator’. He or she is initially chosen by the members of the scheme and acts as a link between them, the local Neighbourhood Policing Team, the council, other Watches and community groups.

In summary, Neighbourhood Watch; Brings people closer together, Builds a stronger community spirit, Helps to reduce crime, Reduces an individual’s anxieties about crime, Strengthens links with the local Neighbourhood Policing Team, Develops closer relationships with local councils, Improves the local environment, Creates a better quality of life.

If you are interested in setting up a NHW scheme in your local community please contact Andy Denton, your local Watch Liaison Officer at Lancaster Police Station. Tel: 01524 596610 or contact your local Neighbourhood Policing Team

It is important that this link works in both directions.
