BLACKPOOL NORTH Your FREE Local Community & Business Directory Hello and welcome to the latest edition of LINK Mag! I’m sure this month, like us, you’ll join the four billion other people worldwide in watching the London Olympics. Whether you’re lucky enough to be watching in person or simply enjoying it on TV, it should be a monumental showcase of everything that is good about Britain.
We’ll certainly have our eyes on Blackpool-born Carl Myerscough, who will represent Team GB in the shotput event. The best of luck to him and the rest of Team GB! 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. Caroline Baron of Carleton won our Where Am I? Competition, so well done - £50 is on its way to you! Also, Mr Rusgitti of Blackpool 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. LINK-Magazine is your local community & business directory.

Barney’s Dog Walking can help your dog lead a happier, healthier life. Pets need exercise just like the rest of us. Not only does it physically tire your pooch, making sure they’re too tired to be destructive in your home, it emotionally levels out your dog’s brain chemistry. In the same way a good work out at the gym can de-stress and exhilarate humans, a good run out for your dog will leave them happier and more relaxed. ‘Dog Whisperer’ Cesar Millan says that exercise, along with discipline, plays a big role in having a happy, balanced pet. See the difference in your dog - with fully insured and Lhasa Apso specialist Barney’s Dog Walking you’re guaranteed to see an improvement in your pet’s behaviour. Professional grooming is also available, as is boarding in a pet friendly home. Call 01253 350441 to discuss your dog’s needs.

Postcard from Blackpool We hope that you’ve found the new Live Blackpool website – your new local place to go for things that are happening in the local area, plus look round resources like parks and the seafront, and what it’s like to live here. It follows from the well loved Visit Cleveleys site, and links all the local destinations on the Fylde Coast. We’re working our way round all the interesting things in Blackpool that you might not notice because you live here and see them all the time – like the beach at Anchorsholme and the Comedy Carpet. Blackpool is about so much more than just the Golden Mile and it’s really a privilege to say that you live here. Rebellion Punk Festival returns to Blackpool at the beginning of August, along with the Airshow and Ride the Lights. Many of the events are designed to attract visitors to town, but the beauty of being a resident is that you can enjoy all these great things on your own doorstep. Aren’t we lucky! There’s
also a new Events Calendar on the Live Blackpool website, so keep an eye on it for meetings, events and entertainment from all over the Fylde Coast. We’d love to hear your news and tell everyone all about your community groups and what you get up to. We’ll help you to spread your word, so by all means send us your news and we’ll share it. Keep an eye on the website, www.liveBlackpool. info, for all the latest local developments and community news added regularly. 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.
