New park and playground for Wisewood’s Spider Park PEOPLE in Wisewood will soon have a new space to play, relax and enjoy the outdoors, as Sheffield City Council has approved funding to develop a new park and playground at Spider Park. For the last few years people living in the area have been asking for improvements to the park, on the site of the former Wisewood School, and consultation has previously been carried out to establish the type of play facility that could be provided. The plans from this consultation work will form a starting point for the project and further en-
gagement will take place among local people, to review this important work for the Wisewood community.
cilities and services available in the surrounding community, which will bring this development to completion.
The new park is the last piece of the jigsaw for leisure opportunities in the Wisewood area, after Wisewood Leisure Centre and the on-site pitches were developed in recent years.
Sheffield City Council will begin engagement and design work to develop a scheme that meets the needs of the local community, fit for the available space, and which can be delivered within the available budget.
The site for the new park and playground is on the corner of Rural Lane and Laird Road between the Riva Project (community cafĂŠ) and the Wisewood Leisure Centre. The pocket park style site will form an important part of the local area, complementing the existing fa-
This development work will take place over the coming months. The council will inform local people as plans progress, working with the community, local councillors and stakeholders.
Search for missing councillor information THIS year, Ecclesfield Parish Council is celebrating 125 years of operation. An Act of Parliament in 1894 set up this level of local government, and elections were held at the end of the year. The first meeting was held in early 1895.
The Ecclesfield Civil Archiving Project is researching the names and backgrounds of the first Parish Councillors. Unfortunately, the identities of some of them cannot be confirmed from the censuses of 1891, 1901
and 1911. They include John Bell and George Neale. The project would welcome any information about these men, who would probably have been born between 1840 and 1860, and would be interested in receiving any informa-
tion from readers whose ancestors were connected with the original Parish Council. The names of the other original Councillors include Havershon, Green (two councillors), Newton, Milnes, Hemingfield, Rhodes,
Ridge, Harvey, Steel and Holland. Any information, photos, family connections or anecdotes can be sent to: Ecclesfield Parish Council, Mortomley Lane, High Green, S35 3HS or can be e-mailed to admin@ ecclesfield-pc.gov.uk
THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS CARDIO THERE is a false dichotomy between cardio training and resistance training. Many people believe that in some way your heart has to be conditioned independently from the rest of your body. However, there is no need to train two separate programs: the condition of the heart is improved when you improve your body’s overall fitness level. fit20 training improves your cardiovascular fitness without any additional ‘cardio’ exercise. At fit20, we employ high intensity training or HIT. This
is strength training using weights, performing quality repetitions under the expert guidance of a personal trainer. The intensity is key, as we use this to increase the demands on your muscles to make your heart pump harder to supply them with oxygen rich blood. Your heart supports and responds to your muscles, so the harder they work, the harder the heart must work too. By training your muscles correctly, your heart will follow! With the exacting methods we use at fit20, you are effectively exercising your
aerobic system for up to 90 minutes after your training session ends! As well as increasing your muscular strength, weekly fit20 training improves the fitness of your heart, lungs, blood vessels and thereby your stamina. Hate cardio training? Then fit20 is for you!
