to your Thornton Cleveleys Magazine.
March Magazine Deadline 12th February 2015
Time for a Fresh Start in 2015, so let me first wish you a Happy New Year – and may it be a great one! We hope it brings success and happiness, and that you carry the experience of the past into a brighter future. We’ve had a great start to the year with our biggest month in business, which means we are helping more businesses than ever before in providing a cost effective solution to reaching the local market. By dedicating our magazines to specific areas we can support local shopping more than any other local media. Two new magazines are soon to be launched, both at 20,000 copies per month: One will be in the Ribble Valley, covering east Preston through to Clitheroe, while we are also producing a new Chorley edition for this growth area, expanding into the surrounding villages. Recent Testimonial just in: “The Link Magazine has continued to be a reliable and solid advertising source whilst providing both good quality print and cost effectiveness on distribution. At one point we had to stop advertising as we were inundated with work! Customer service and the whole process of booking advertising is smooth and flawless.” – LazyLawn Lancashire. Well done to last month’s winner: Joan Andrews for the Where Am I? Competition. £50 is on its way. Once again, have a Great New Year!

Julie Nash Fine Art & Tuition
Anyone can have a go at painting and everyone can get enjoyment from it. It’s the perfect way to relax, make new friends and forget your troubles. Getting started can be daunting and people often worry they won’t be good enough to join a class. I’ll let you into a secret - Everyone feels like that at first. Because of this, all my tuition is very informal but you’ll still learn loads of stuff. Dave and I welcome you into our home and we strive to create a warm and inviting atmosphere, because we want you to enjoy your visit. Weekend workshops are ideal taster days (all materials and lunch included). Short courses allow skills to develop week on week, and individual tuition is designed around your personal needs and interests. In 2015, in response to requests, I’m running evening courses too. Visit my website for more information about my tuition and view examples of mine and my student’s artwork, or phone me up for a chat. Happy painting: Julie Nash
Award Winning Lancashire Artist & Tutor Tutiton for all abilities, 1 & 2 day workshops, short courses Small class sizes ensure the best quality tuition in a welcoming atmosphere

A different quality of care The team at Home Instead Senior Care in Blackpool, North Cleveleys and Fleetwood are passionate about providing care to its clients which not only improves the quality of their life but those of their families too. Owner Tara said, “We are passionate about providing the highest standard of person-centred care. Our ethos is simple – treat others as we would wish to be treated ourselves. In doing this we are improving our clients’ quality of life and helping them to remain living in their own homes.” Home Instead Senior Care specialises in providing care for older people in their own homes. The service is extremely flexible and ranges from help a few hours a day to 24 hour care. We believe that care can’t be delivered in a short, rushed visit so our care calls are of a minimum hour duration. Each and every one of our clients has a care plan tailored specifically to their own needs. Whether it’s a trip to the park for some fresh air, a visit to the hairdressers; some help around the house or assistance with shopping; right through to medication reminders and post-operative support or respite care we are here to help. We also provide a range of specialist services, which include
Alzheimer’s and dementia care, convalescence care and respite care. What’s more, we take time to carefully match our caregivers to clients so that they share common areas of interest and can form an immediate bond. We only employ the most caring, considerate and empathetic caregivers – people to whom making a difference to the lives of others is important. It is for this reason that we enjoy long-lasting relationships with our clients. Our caregivers are carefully selected, are CRB checked and have to provide six references Home Instead Senior Care are committed to making a difference, we regard it as a special privilege to look after people with love, care and compassion and we take our responsibilities very seriously indeed For more information on Home Instead Senior Care please call us on 01253 200770 or visit www. homeinstead.co.uk/ blackpoolandwyre

developments Yo at all levels of the club, but let’s start with the first team.
The current manager is ex Blackpool striker Lee Thorpe, took over the reins last month when the former Everton and Blackpool defender John Hills departed to join Hyde as head coach. The squad is made up of local players, many of whom came through the junior ranks. Some have joined TCFC after having been released by professional clubs. Make no mistake, the West Lancashire League is of a decent standard. For those with an able knowledge of non-league football, there will be plenty of familiar names appearing for opposing clubs. Thornton’s captain is Ben Breakell, son of ex-manager Steve Breakell. Other stalwarts 46

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. Saturday: I had a really positive meeting with a resident who wanted to discuss the issue of dropped curbs with me. Some of the curbs in Anchorsholme are very high and it really opened my eyes just how difficult it is to use them if you are in a wheel chair or scooter or pushing a pram. The resident had plenty of idea’s of where they would like to see dropped curbs and it was a conversation I thoroughly enjoyed. Now I am busy trying to put into place what was discussed and developing a plan for dropped curbs throughout Anchorsholme so if there is somewhere in Anchorsholme that you feel would benefit from a dropped curb please let me know. Sunday: I had a fantastic day today. I was on steward duty at Anchorsholme Methodist church which I enjoyed very much. It was lovely to catch up with everyone there. I found the service really enjoyable and rewarding. Afterwards I had a informal meeting in Eastpines Park where I discussed with residents our plans for the Park and updated the notice boads. Monday: Today I attended a meeting at Sandpiper Court. The meeting was attended by Matt Hill, who is the architect for the promenade works. The meeting was held to explain to residents where we are upto in the construction of the new promenade and what will be occurring in Anchorsholme Park during the United Utilities work. Residents were very glad to hear that, after two years, both Councillor Williams and myself are tying United Utilities to the promises they made about how the park will look after their work is completed. It was confirmed in the meeting that the work on the new prom is on schedule with a completion date of October 2015.
Park. It’s taken me months of hard work and has probably been one of the most complex projects I’ve worked on as it involved raising the money, installing electricity in to the Park and getting the right technology and working within the data protection act. The CCTV we have chosen will cover the entire area of the Park and has night vision so it’s the best technology available. I am really hoping the installation will help prevent the chronic anti-social behaviour the park has suffered from in the summer of 2014. Thursday: I recently was informed that I have been made a Governor of Anchorsholme Academy and today I attended my first meeting. I am very proud and honoured to accept the role and will work hard for the benefit of the school. Governors are responsible for many of the major decisions made in the ‘day to day’ life of the school with the aim they create a school that offers the best education possible for the children of Anchorsholme. The school currently has two vacancies for Governors and applications are open for anyone especially someone with a finance or legal background who would like to get involved. If you are interested pleased call Kim Pearcy at Anchorsholme Academy on 855215 Friday: I had a wonderful meeting with an official from a wildlife charity called WildAid to discuss our wildlife plan for Eastpines Park. We intend to create an environment that sustains several different species of birds. That way not only can we release birds that were once injured from the park but we can also encourage birds to reside within the park. I am hoping that we can involve Anchorsholme’s school children in the construction of bird boxes which will mean we can then encourage birds to nest in the park. This was a meeting that I found satisfying on both a personal and professional level and I enjoyed every second of it. Straight from that meeting I met up with a resident who had a housing issue which I’m hoping to resolve promptly. Again, I find these problems great to work on and personally satisfying when they are resolved as you know you have made a real difference.
Tuesday: This morning I met with a resident who was having problems with a blocked drain. I love sorting our blocked drains because if left the damage that can be caused to properties and roads can be substantial. If you have any problems with blocked drains on the highway please contact me on 01253 826679. It gives me great satisfaction to sort out all the problems no matter how large or small. In the afternoon I booked the wood carver who will be creating Many thanks our carved owl statue in Eastpines Park.
Paul Galley
Wednesday: What an exciting Wednesday. As Cllr for Anchorsholme usual I had my normal fun calling the bingo at St Teresa’s. Then, afterwards, I popped down to see the new CCTV being installed in Eastpines Advertise your business call 0800 970 7687 or email info@link-mag.co.uk

The use of poles means the upper body muscles are used as well as the legs. The poles help propel the walker along which means you work harder than usual but the poles makes it feel easier. Nordic walking turns a walk into a workout!

SWEET DEALS ON SURGERY, THE FRANCEENS, DINOSAURS ARE SH*T DRAGONS Saturday 7th March, 8pm The Ferret, 55 Fylde Road, Preston, Lancashire, PR1 2XQ. Sweet Deals On Surgery are a band of three men from the north of England who play catchy/shouty/indie/ punk rock and drink too much. Alex-Bass/Voice RobGuitar/Voice Tim-Drums have just released their debut E.P ‘Total Reek Hole’, with song titles such as ‘Elvis Costello is a w****r’ and ‘Desk from the waist down’ it’s safe to say SDOS don’t take themselves too seriously. Make no mistake though, the songs contained within these titles are well crafted, melodic, instantly catchy noise pop, with structures that veer a little from the norm. The Franceens are a 3 piece rock and roll band from York UK. They have been described by many as being a ‘real band’. They are known for their ferocious live shows, constant gigging, and their high-energy version of garage/rock and roll style music. They started in February 2013 and have been going strong ever since. Dinosaurs Are Sh*t Dragons: while most bands try to be something they’re not this Blackpool 4 piece are trying hard to not be something they are: socially-inept, culturally-handicapped genre cuckoos: pinching the best bits of a mixed bag of influences and inciting big dumb sing alongs across the North West with a barely contained energy that makes onlookers wonder if they’re trying to kill each other. Sure, it’s not big or clever or cool, but maybe that’s the Music Industry’s problem, maybe it should take a little break from its fancy haircuts and status updates and just have a bit of a laugh. Free Entrance. http://theferret.info

ROLL WITH THE WEATHER, SAYS DIARMUID
Diarmuid offers the following design tips to gardeners who want their garden to look good, whatever the weather:
ou would have thought that when he moved to a new house in Wicklow, known as the Garden of Ireland, Diarmuid Gavin, the enfant terrible of the gardening fraternity, would have wasted no time hauling in the diggers, landscaping materials, amazing plants and architectural altars. Think again. The TV gardening maverick admits that it’s easy to talk about garden design, to lecture on it and write books about it, but he developed a fear of it when it came to his own plot. “I bought a new home, a show house, with a perfectly simple garden - wooden fences, sloped lawn, some scalloped shaped beds to the sides and that was it. But for the life of me, I couldn’t decide on a good design which would satisfy the family,” he says. “I made the terrible mistake of ripping out everything that was here in the misguided belief that a clean sweep would provide some clarity. And then I did... nothing... for ages.” The situation became so dire that his local estate agent sheepishly approached and said Gavin was making his job selling properties very difficult because of the state of the garden. “The ignominy! So, something needed doing. Even then I ran away from the issue. I started work indoors, knocking down walls, repainting and disposing of heavy black curtains.” Ever distracted with other projects, the TV gardener says that his own plot has progressed slowly. “After some years I developed a plan and commissioned a beautiful illustration. Now at least we know what the garden will look like. “The heavy building work started - a beautiful two storey veranda now crosses the back of the house
n Keep the overall design simple. When you’re making a plan, use a few sweeping lines to lead the eye from the viewing point, which is often the kitchen window, right down to the back of your plot.
Y
n Turn your lawn into a welcoming green wide pathway, which almost acts as an arrow, drawing the eye or the visitor on a journey. n Keep the planting simple. Mass plant low-growing shrubs such as dwarf purple berberis for colour or clouds of Pittosporum tobira ‘Nanum’.
allowing for outdoor living on two levels. Freshly planted wisterias are beginning to climb towards the sky, wrapped around reclaimed cast iron pillars. The foundation is in for a small summer house. “I shifted five tonnes of sieved topsoil in readiness for new raised vegetable beds. The big plan is to terrace - lawns, beds and borders. “However, the big lesson is - don’t do it my way. Just do as I say.” Gavin and his family live minutes from the coast. Their garden enjoys a sunny aspect but, like the rest of the country, there is plenty of rain. However, he has ploughed on and has achieved some measure of success in his choice of planting. “The difficulty in the last few years has been the either freezing or just plain cold winters. I like to battle against the elements and the echiums that are growing up against the sitting room window are testament to that - they have been burnt by frost but even now stand at a majestic 10ft high. If you are a gardener you roll with the weather.”

n If your garden is extremely small, shaded or just damp, give up on a lawn altogether. It’s not going to repay any maintenance and you will spend years and fortunes bemoaning the brown patches and invasion of weeds and moss. Dig it up and replace it with a top quality artificial turf. This can be wonderful, a green carpet which always looks good, can be easily cleaned, allows rainwater and snow to drain away and doesn’t need cutting or feeding. For a top-of-the-range brand, try Easigrass. n Consider what your specimens will look like all year round, not only when covered in foliage or flower. If you’re planting a tree, why not try a multi-stemmed birch? When bare from October to April it still has a lovely sculptural shape. Enhance this through the evening by uplighting through the use of a spotlight at its base. n Pay attention to a few detailed areas. Surprise and delight by framing your front door with a wonderful display of massed colour in pots. For instance, a mass of flowering cyclamen crammed into a ‘long Tom’ terracotta urn looks special and draws attention from less well tended parts of the garden.
