ADVERTISE YOUR BUSINESS
to your Thornton Cleveleys Magazine. The Awesome Autumn is upon us! It’s a fantastic time with exciting events as the nights grow shorter: We have Halloween to look forward to, followed closely by Bonfire Night, so why not find out how to make Jack-o’-Lanterns inside? If you have any events planned over the next few months, make sure they get listed FREE in LINK-MAG monthly magazine, now covering 20,000 homes in Lancaster. We’ve had a fantastic September dealing with more new businesses and enquiries, and we’re looking forward to continued growth over the coming months with even more new areas. We’ve supported Stanah School with Hi Vis vests for their pupils on trips out, so that they will be safe and visible. If you have any sponsoring options around Lancaster, please let us know. Well done to last month’s winner: Lesley Tague for the Where Am I? Competition. £50 is on its way. Have a great Halloween, and see you next month!

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

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. Friday: Was such a rewarding day, I had a meeting about bringing CCTV to Eastpines Park and I’m delighted to confirm that we are getting CCTV for the Park. I’ll confirm all the details in next months magazine but I’m very pleased with the deal I’ve managed to secure for the Park today. At 6pm I was back in the Park again, I’ve spent every Friday evening from 6pm to 9pm this summer in Eastpines Park, supporting our free football training in the Park and trying to engage with some of the young people who are using the Park. Our free football coaching has been a massive success with around 50 children playing every Friday and Monday’s night. It’s been a really busy time and we are a long way from fixing some of the problems but I’m confident with more investment which I’m very close to securing for the Park and more engagement I can fix the problems we have had. Saturday: I had such a lovely day today. The weather
was lovely and I visited two separate residents who had problems with a very busy road and some very dangerous speeding traffic and I’m now working with the police to catch the people responsible. In the afternoon I weeded the ‘Welcome To Anchorsholme’ public garden on the corner of Luton Road and Anchorsholme Lane East and I met some lovely people. I’m organising for the gold lettering on the ‘Welcome to Anchorsholme’ sign to be touched up so it looks extra special as the weather has worn the paint and it’s letting the garden down at the moment.
Sunday: Today I had a rare day in and worked on my recruitment business and put through residents complaints and problems through the council system. Catch up days like today are priceless. Monday: The first day of the working week started very officially. I attended a meeting at Blackpool Town Hall, I’m on a committee called the Appeals Committee which means we hear an appeal made by a member of the council staff or the public. It’s a very informative committee to sit on as it oversees so much varied work. In the afternoon I showed two residents around the town hall. I love the building, the art that hangs there (there is a beautiful portrait of Sir John Bickerstaffe the man who built the tower which always inspires me) and the architecture so it’s nice to be able to show it off to people who may not have the chance to see it otherwise. The town hall belongs to the people of Blackpool so I really do love showing people around and explaining how decisions made there effect so much of what goes on in Blackpool. Tuesday: In the morning I worked on my recruitment
at Blackpool Transport. I’m sworn to secrecy about what was discussed but in a few weeks time I’m hoping for some really positive news that I’ll be able to confirm which will help passengers using Blackpool Transport buses or trams. Wednesday: This morning I called the bingo at St
Teresa’s. If anyone would like to join, it’s free and is great fun. The group meet every Wednesday from 10.20am to 12pm and you get to hear me make everyone laugh as my bingo calling is a bit wacky. It’s at St Teresa’s Church Hall. In the afternoon I attended the funeral of a lovely lady who I was lucky enough to meet through my role as a Councillor. I’m going to miss her so much she was an incredible lady and did so much for the people of Anchorsholme.
Thursday: Today was the best day ever! Finally both
Councillor Williams and I had confirmation that the work to relay the road surface on Rockville Avenue has been confirmed and the subsequent legalities have been put into place. Rockville Avenue has been in dire need of fixing for a long time and we are both thrilled that it’s being replaced. We have put so much effort in to getting this done and I’m just so pleased work is going ahead. It just shows no matter how many times people tell you no, if you believe in something keep pushing and asking until you make it happen, it can happen. I can’t wait for work to start and for the residents who live on Rockville and its surrounding roads to be able to drive down there without having to deal with the bad state of the road. In the evening I attended a meeting at Sevenoaks Community Centre with the tenants Association. It was a really productive meeting and I picked up a lot of problems which I’m now going to fix. On the way back, I walked through Eastpines Park and had a chat with everyone that was in there, even though it was dark it was still very busy.
Friday: Today was a quiet day. I spent the day working on my business. And in the evening I went down to East Pines Park to watch the football and talk to everyone who was in the Park. The weather wasn’t great but I stayed in from 6pm until it went dark and used the time to sketch some ideas on redesigning the Park, something I’m really excited about but I’ll tell you more about that in next months magazine.
Many thanks

HALLOWEEN
HOW TO MAKE A TRADITIONAL JACK O’LANTERN STEP 1: The traditional scary face is very straightforward to make. Cut a lid in the top of the pumpkin around the stem so that you can scoop out the insides. A good rule of thumb is that the lid should be about two-thirds the diameter of the pumpkin. Take a sharp, long-bladed knife and, holding it at an angle, cut a circular or hexagonal-shaped lid. Holding the knife at an angle when making the cut will help ensure the lid does not fall into the empty pumpkin. Use a large spoon to scoop out the insides - the seeds etc., then gently scrape the walls clean and the base until it is flat.
STEP 2: Put the pumpkin on a table and turn it until you decide which side you want to cut. Using a fine permanent marker, draw on the face, and using a sharp knife with a firm, short blade, carefully follow your guidelines. Once all the cuts have been make, remove the pieces by gently pushing them from the inside out. For more complicated patterns use a stencil pinned to the pumpkin, prick the motif onto the pumpkin’s surface using a thick needle, join the dots with a marker pen and cut.
STEP 3: Onto the flat inside base of the pumpkin place a tea light. White candles will make the lantern glow most effectively, although for a more spooky effect, put the candle in a coloured glass holder.
...And once the festivities are over, do remember that the pumpkin can be added to the compost heap. Advertise your business call 0800 970 7687 or email info@link-mag.co.uk
PICKING YOUR PUMPKIN... Rule one is to buy a pumpkin of good size. A small one will be fiddly to cut and something the size of a handball will look a bit pathetic. A good average size is 30-40 cm tall, with a well rounded shape. When selecting your future lantern, check for damage and bruising, and reject any with injury, for they will not last so long. Also, do not carry a pumpkin by its stem as this will injure it.

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! Nordic walking is one of the fastest growing fitness activities in the world - if you want to try it out contact Ann at Stepping Out Health Wellbeing on 07587 185680 or email ann@stepping-out.org.uk. Come and join us on our taster sessions.
