Robert Pallant Brings Stylish German Bedrooms To The Fylde Coast Robert Pallant Designs have over 30 years experience in the design, supply and installation of bedrooms, kitchens and living spaces. Their refreshing approach is to ensure that each unique design is individually tailored to suit the client’s particular needs and budget, down to the very finest of details.
W
e take great pride in the fact that our reputation is built on a solid foundation of quality, innovation and service and we constantly strive to create visually stunning yet functional environments for each of our valued clients. We offer a very personal service, and really listen to the customer. I deal directly with the customer throughout the process and then hand over to my fitting team – the twins, who have worked with me since starting out 30 years ago.” – Robert remarks. The new bedroom showroom (opened only last week) houses the latest trends in bedrooms. All of the bedrooms supplied by Robert Pallant Designs are made to order from top German manufacturer Nolte Delbrück, and offer superior quality, form and function. Robert added: “Nolte Delbrück are one of the top German bedroom manufacturers, they are a fourth generation family run business with whom we have a great working relationship. All orders are tailored down to the very last detail. The collection includes bedrooms designs for all, from traditional through to contemporary styles, from solid built free-standing to fully-fitted units.
24
The perfect bedroom is complete with the inclusion of lighting, fabrics, curtains, blinds, cushions & more. Robert for many years has teamed up with local fabrics designer Susan Evans. Robert added “Susan came on board when we collaborated on The Raithewaite Hall Project in Whitby - 8 cottages with the Spa Hotel. We now use her for all our client’s bedrooms & kitchens. Susan offers an unbelievable choice of stunning fabrics and designs to compliment and complete your room with style. Robert looks forward to welcoming existing and new clients to his showroom – your dream bedroom is waiting for you!

Chimney breasts, sloping ceilings and uneven walls add character, but they also cost you valuable storage space. We will redefine the living space for you, working with the room’s feature to realise its true potential. Wall to wall, floor to ceiling, our individually designed fitted bedroom furniture transforms even the most irregular bedroom.

Nostalgia - by Mandy Mitcham Looking back on my Nursing Career recently, I remember starting as an impressionable 16 year old. We were all young “Cadet Nurses� and untrained, so our early placements were on the old 50 bedded Geriatric Wards as they were called then. The odour in the mornings was unpleasant as tatty curtains between beds with shared commodes provided limited privacy and definitely NO dignity. With the very little spare time we did have, when Sister wasn’t watching, we would get chance to talk to patients. No history books could give you the wealth of understanding that these little conversations gave you, men who had served in the Great War and even some on previous campaigns, women who during those times had coped with what today we might see as insurmountable problems. Family Poverty, very young widows with children to support, and the struggle of a long hard life made it heart rending to see where life had brought them, and I felt not really nostalgia but abhorrence at their Indignity. Thank goodness times have changed. We gave up our lovely 4 bedroom home, along with my post as Community Midwife. Family in tow, we moved to St Annes, investing Heart, Soul and Bank Balance into our new lives operating Care Homes. No easy task, but our passion to improve things for our clients was a great motivator. We all face the ageing process and our thoughts were always that if we reached the stage where we needed to sell our home and have daily support, as life had become too difficult to manage ourselves, how and where would we want to live. As a motivated family, we have created our own unique environment.
Elegant suites designed with Comfort, Safety & Security in mind, support independence of living just as if you are in your own home. We offer Studio or One Bedroom single and twin bedded Suites, fitted to a very high standard. Modern galley kitchens and walk in wetrooms within the family setting of our beautiful period home. Classic dining, library and lounge rooms for our communal areas, plus bar & entertainment lounge, which leads out to the private landscaped sensory garden. On-site Convenience Shop, Hairdressing Salon, Therapy Spa Room. Communal facilities, all meals and basic foods & drinks are fully inclusive.

LSA YMCA FC The season is now well up and running and on every weekend so far the weather has been generally sunny and warm. Just perfect for football. In the Boys Section the club’s Under 12s have made an excellent start to the season, their only defeat so far was against last season’s champions BJFF Blades. They have also reached the 3rd round of the County Cup with an impressive 6-0 away win at St Helens Town. The Under 16s are unbeaten so far and have also reached the 3rd round of their County Cup competition. The Under 14s though are still seeking their first win but this is understandable. Eight players from last season’s squad and the manager departed during the summer so new manager Duggie Shaw has had to rebuild the squad and some new recruits have had little experience of competitive football. The spirit within the team is good though and we are confident that results will eventually come. In non-com-
petitive football in which results are not permitted to be published the Under 7s, 8s, 9s, 10s and 11s have all made excellent starts to the campaign. In the Girls Section the Under 12 have won two of their opening three games. The Under 16s though have lost both of their opening but have shown encouraging signs of progress despite results going against them. ‘Lozz’ Rose, Secretary Lytham St Annes YMCA Football Club Tel: 01253 714082 Mob: 07957 596326 Email: soccermanlozz@aol.com
