Welcome to our March issue Welcome to the March issue of RH10. Our big news this month is that we went live with our new website on February 16th and we couldn’t be more proud. If you haven’t already, pop over and have a look - you can find us at www.rhuncovered.co.uk - you won’t be disappointed. The heart of RH magazines has always been local services for local people. That message is at the heart of the website also. Local news, events and of course people in the community, will all be featured. You will also find exclusive deals and an extensive list of events in your area.

Back to this month’s magazine. Henry Smith tells us about becoming a patron of the Fair Votes for All Campaign. We talk to Sussex based charity Reaching Families, and St. Catherine’s Hospice reach out to adrenaline junkies. All this and our usual events, health, homes and gardens sections too.

We want to hear from you. Are you involved in a club, social group or charity organisation? Maybe there’s a person who you think deserves their story being told? Have you got an event coming up or a special anniversary? Whatever your story, we would love to hear from you.

Do you regularly run for hours? Perhaps you’re looking for the ultimate physical challenge? If so, a Pound Hill charity’s annual six and twelve hour races, could be your next personal test!

On Saturday 18th April, from 7am, forty runners will take to the K2 track in Crawley, for either six or twelve hours – all to raise funds for local charity, Advance International Ministries who are hoping to complete the building of a home for 100 children in Kiyindi, Uganda, orphaned through A.I.D.S. 6 - Community

Pam Storey, race director for the event, which has been taking place since 2006, tells us. “Come along and see how far you can run in 6 or 12 hours on the newly resurfaced 400m track at K2!”

Adrenaline Enthusiasts Wanted!

Thrill-seekers are required for St Catherine’s Hospice next exciting fundraising challenge – a superherothemed abseil, taking place in Crawley next month.

The local hospice is asking you to unleash your inner superhero and take on a daredevil 100ft abseil at Superhero Headquarters, the Sandman Hotel, Tinsley Lane South, Crawley on Saturday 18 April, all to raise further funds for hospice care.

“Whether you descend on your own as a personal mission, with a group of friends or with work colleagues, you won’t need to make a quick escape when you reach the top and see the spectacular views,” Michaela Clements from St Catherine’s Hospice says. “All you’ll need is a good sense of balance and the ability to control your nerves; it’s not for the fainthearted!”

“Be your own Clark Kent or Wonder Woman; join in the fun and dress up as your favourite superhero. Think along the lines of Superman, Batman, The Hulk, and Catwoman be as creative as you like!”

8 - Community

Or, if you have your very own work A-Team, why not take on the exclusive corporate abseil on Friday 17th April? Sign up your team of four and if you recruit ten superheroes your CEO can abseil for FREE! One such superhero taking on the challenge is RH Uncovered Magazine director, Matthew Arnold. Swapping his usual suit and tie for a costume, Matthew, who lives in Crawley Down, can’t wait to show his support for our local hospice… even if it does mean him abseiling 100ft in Lycra.

“One of my goals for 2015 is to do more for our community and hopefully inspire our readers to do the same,” Matthew explains.

All those over the age of 13 can take part (although parental consent is required for those aged 18 and under), so what are you waiting for?

Grab your costume and become a hospice hero!

For more information please call Louise or Michaela on 01293 447364 or e-mail events@stch.org.uk.

Pictures from Matthew and Emma (our Community Projects Manager)‘s abseil will also be on Facebook and Twitter after the event, so don’t forget to pop on over and see how they got on!

“Abseiling for St Catherine’s, who cared for my partner’s father back in 2011, is just the first step... just watch this space!”

Registration costs £25pp and fundraising superheroes are asked to raise a heroic £150 each (minimum) in sponsorship.

“It’ll never happen.” It’s easy to think health and safety regulations are too complex or too demanding and decide not to go ahead with an activity or event.

Health and safety is a subject that has some of us rolling our eyes in exasperation, but none of us want our children, friends or communities to be unsafe – especially as a result of our own actions.

“Just following a few simple procedures will make sure your voluntary organisation is acting safely and ensure your community event is successful and safe too,” Crawley Community & Voluntary Service (CCVS) Premises & Resources Officer, Michael Simpson says. “We have created some factsheets that give guidance on organising small events. If your event is larger or based at your premises, as part of our support to local voluntary and community organisations, CCVS offers Health & Safety assessments.

I will visit you to inspect the site then complete a risk assessment, we can even arrange for local contractors to carry out any safety works for you which will let you concentrate on making sure the event is a success ”

If you would like more information about a Health & Safety assessment or for a copy of a factsheet, please contact Michael on:

Lasting Powers of Attorney These are legal documents drawn up and registered with The Office of the Public Guardian to give another or others (Attorneys) the power to deal with your affairs and make decisions for you if you are unable to do this for yourself because you lack capacity.

There are two types: Property and financial affairs which can give your attorneys the ability to run your bank and savings accounts and make decisions about making or selling investments and selling property.

Health and Welfare which can give your attorneys the power to choose where you live, who visits you and the type of care you receive. This has a section on life sustaining treatments and whether you wish your attorneys or doctors to be the decision maker.

Anyone over the age of 18 can have them drawn up, as this is the only way to ensure the people you choose can deal with your affairs. People assume that a spouse or next of kin will automatically have this power but this is not the case. If they are not named as attorneys in an LPA, they have no say in your affairs.

It is assumed LPAs are for the elderly but someone may lack capacity short term due to an accident. During this time, nobody can deal with their affairs.

If you do not have LPAs in place once you lack capacity it is too late to draw them up and those closest to you would then need to apply to the Court of Protection to ask for permission to deal with your affairs.

20 - Good Wills Advertorial

The initial cost for this starts from £500 and in most cases will take more than six months for a decision. Normally the court decides to give these powers to a professional who will charge for their services.

Good Wills is a family run business that provide a friendly and efficient service to give you and your family the best advice and assistance when dealing with delicate matters, such as an LPA, in the comfort of your own home.

Potholes and fly tipping are just two of the street faults that can be reported via the website www.FixMyStreet.com, along with vandalism, graffiti, dog fouling and many other common community issues.

While most of us know that the council are responsible for fixing these things, we may not know which council, let alone which department in which council.

With FixMyStreet, all you have to do is locate the problem on a map, and select a category: the site then sends it off to the right place to get it fixed.

All reports are published on the site, as well as being sent to the council. Browsing your own postcode can be interesting, as you soon learn what the persistent problems are in your area, and whether or not they are being fixed.

There’s also the opportunity to discuss individual reports in the comments section.

FixMyStreet comes from the UK not-for-profit organisation mySociety, and is one of its longest-running and most-used services.

It is just one of several projects aimed at making it easier for citizens to get things changed in their own community.

So, next time you see something that needs fixing, be it a broken paving slab or a flickering streetlight, all you need to remember is FixMyStreet.com.

The Power of Performance Classes

While many children may wish to take up dance, acting or music classes with the hope of becoming the next Beyoncé, Brad Pitt or Ed Sheeran; it’s believed that these fun, performance-based activities can actually boost a child’s other skills, including reading, listening and selfconfidence.

A variety of studies have shown that expressive arts classes also attribute to improving creativity, self-esteem and team-working skills; vital must-haves for on-going development.

However, with many schools running limited – or no – performance-based lessons, parents are placing importance on enrolling their children for creative extra-curricular activities; such as dance, drama, gymnastics and music.

Science & MathsTutor

“My child lacked confidence and found it hard to interact with others,” one local mum tells us. “While she was shy and a little overwhelmed by starting her ballet class, at first, she now can’t wait to go and see her new friends.

The improvement we’ve seen in her – not only with her communication, but also with attention and positive attitude, has definitely made a difference.”

Jill McGrogan from Bullfrog Productions, also agrees: “children come to us with little confidence and communication skills but I have seen these kids get up on stage during our productions smiling and singing and asking Mum and Dad; 'Can I do it again please?!’

What is hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is a natural state of heightened awareness that occurs within all of us. It allows us to open our minds to beneficial suggestions and allows the client to use their imagination to make positive changes.

A brief way to describe a feeling similar to hypnosis is that moment you’ve been watching TV and not heard a word that’s been said, even though you’ve been staring straight at the screen.

Alternatively it’s the car journey where you wonder how you got to a certain place.

Your mind is on auto-pilot and must have been in control, otherwise there would probably have been an accident.

What can hypnotherapy help with?

The true cost of a kitchen So you’re planning to fit a new kitchen.

But how do you ensure value for money?

Here’s the lowdown on where to start, what to look for and all the questions to ask.

By Katherine Sorrell.

Designing your kitchen Using an architect or interior designer is the most expensive option. Check whether they price per hour or for the job, and what’s included – from simple outline sketches, to detailed drawings, assistance with planning applications, specifying suppliers, appointing contractors and supervising the entire process. At the other end of the scale, you could design it yourself for free, as well as source all components such as units, worktops and appliances. Remember that this will mean managing the project every step of the way.

Many people go for the middle option of using their kitchen supplier’s design and installation service. If you’re asked to take your own measurements, be careful: even in a new-build, walls are not always true and the surfaces flat.

38 - Homes

Take at least three measurements at floor, work-surface and wall unit height, and work to the smallest width.

Alternatively, if you are using a mid-range or luxury kitchen supplier, you may be asked to pay a few hundred pounds for them to measure up and produce a set of drawings specific to your room.

Fit floor and wall finishes? What about final decorating, electrical work and other carpentry such as shelving? Who will fit worktops, sinks, taps, appliances and extras such as plate racks and knife holders? Is there a guarantee and aftersales service?

Checking for quality

Comparing prices

The main difference between buying an off-the-shelf kitchen from one of the What’s included when you buy a kitchen? budget suppliers and a pricier kitchen It varies widely, from a basic delivery from a mid-price or luxury supplier is that of flat-packed cupboards to an the former will give you machine-made all-encompassing service. units that come off a factory line, whereas the latter offer hand-built cupboards by When comparing prices, ensure that you know exactly what you’re buying – a cheap cabinet-makers. Machine-made units are not necessarily poor quality, though they option can cost considerably more if you end up paying for extra work. Ask the right will have “plant-on” doors that sit in front of the frame, rather than “in-frame” doors, questions. Will they dispose of existing fittings?

Doors

Hinges

Carcasses

Solid-wood doors with traditional mortise and tenon joints are often considered the highest quality. In-frame doors may expand and contract with the humidity (though the thicker they are, the less chance there is of this). A good supplier will offer an after-sales service to check their fitting after a few months.

Veneered doors are usually cheaper, and are considered easier to maintain. Check whether painted doors are machinesprayed, or painted by hand with a brush.

Poor hinges are usually made from thin metal and will wear so thin that the doors hang unevenly. While many people are happy with good quality Blum or Blumstyle hinges (concealed, adjustable and available in a variety of specifications), solid brass butts are better. Check whether hinges open through a complete 180 degree angle.

Top-of-the-range carcasses are made of solid wood. Next-level-down ones are usually made from plywood or MDF veneer, while cheaper ones are made from chipboard, sometimes with just hardboard backs.

Check the thickness of the chipboard – 18-20mm is a good guide.

Worktops Very cheap laminate worktops can burn, scratch and wear out quickly.

High-pressure laminates are more durable than low-pressure ones; check that the underside is sealed to prevent water damage from appliances beneath.

In a more luxurious kitchen package, you’ll be offered solid wood, granite, man-made solid surfaces (such as Corian) or even glass or concrete. They’re more expensive, but they will last longer and look better.

If you want your garden full of colour, interest, perfume and perhaps even tasty crops, there’s no doubt that the least expensive way to do it is to raise your plants from seed. But what can be done to ensure the results in the garden are just as impressive?

Start with a little self-restraint.

It’s all too easy to buy enough seed to fill a tennis court when you have an average-sized garden. Make a list of what you actually need and put a limit on how many un-planned purchases you’ll allow yourself.

Think about sharing. Each packet of seed often contains tens or even hundreds of seeds, so why not agree to swap a few with friends and relatives. This will not only save you money, but will also maximise the range of plants you can grow without increasing your outlay.

Don’t be tempted to sow too many seeds at one time. By sowing little and often you’ll maximise flower time of annual flowers and cropping time for vegetables and herbs. It also means that if the conditions are not right for germination on one occasion, all is not lost.

50 - Gardens

You may not need to buy what you want. Collect seed from your garden or from gardens of friends and neighbours, making sure that the plants are healthy and that they’re ready and ripe or they won’t germinate. Seeds labelled as ‘F1’ will produce flowers whose seeds will not ‘come true’, meaning that the offspring will not be the same as the original plant and will often be less productive. Try to harvest the seed when the plants and the weather are dry, remove any bits of plant debris and allow them to dry off naturally, not becoming too warm or cold. If you can’t sow the seeds immediately, make sure you store them, well labelled, in a cool, dry place.

A small heated or even un-heated propagator can help you reliably raise a far wider range of plants from seed. Choose one which is sturdily built and has proper ventilation in the clear plastic lid, otherwise seedlings may die on hot days. We stock some of the lovely UK-made Stewart propagators at www.pippagreenwood.com.

Seeds do best if not sown too closely, and by sowing thinly you’ll also save yourself time and money.

Wider spacing makes for less thinning out but if you do have to thin out a bit, remember that most seedlings will perform well if looked after properly.

Many herbaceous perennials can successfully be divided into several new plants. Indeed most herbaceous plants do better when occasionally divided as the plant does not become so congested and you can dispose of the grotty bits and plant the good sections into fresh soil.

Many plants are also easily propagated from cuttings, and over the next few weeks, you could get some great cuttings from summer favourites such as fuchsias for virtually no cost at all. They’ll be flowering later this year too.

Visit www.pippagreenwood.com and sign up for ‘Grow Your Own with Pippa Greenwood’ where you can choose from a fantastic selection of vegetables for planting AND receive an email each week telling you all you need to know to ensure great results – from just £29.

You can also sign up for Pippa’s newsletter and receive a free ebook on organic gardening, and buy Nemaslug and other garden products.

Testing Times

It comes but once a year and it can cause lots of stress if you aren’t prepared for it. We’re not talking about Christmas, Easter or Auntie Flo’s birthday, we’re talking about your car being due for it’s annual Ministry Of Transport test.

Yes, when MOT time rolls around it can be stressful, and should it fail you suddenly realise just how much you rely on your car and how much you actually need it. Not to mention how much it may end up costing you, even if there was a whole heap of discount on that MOT in the first place.

A lot of vehicles will fail their MOT due to un-necessary things such as worn tyres, lights that don’t work or no fluid in the washer bottle. Whilst some garages wont charge to fit some of these simple parts, some will.

With these ten checks you can anticipate any troubles and avoid a larger than expected bill for that MOT pass certificate. Of course wait for your vehicle to cool down before checking/changing anything that might be hot.

Headlights and indicators All of these must work properly, so check the headlights (main and dipped beam), sidelights, rear lights, hazard warning lights (ignition on and off ) and finally indicators.

If you have clear lenses, the light emitted needs to clearly be orange.

Brake lights Get a friend/partner to check that the brake lights come on when you press the brake pedal.

This has got to include any additional brake lights at the top of the rear screen or similar.

If you’ve got no-one handy, get the car close to a garage door or a window and look in the mirror – you should get a good idea.

Number plate Give this a wipe, it sounds silly but if it’s not legible it can fail. Also, if you have a personalised plate, the spacing must comply.

Wheels and tyres A quick check for damage is a good start. The legal tread depth for tyres is 1.6mm as far as an MOT is concerned, but it’s good practice to get them changed when they are down to 3mm.

Windscreen If you’ve got any chips or cracks larger than 40mm in your windscreen, it will fail. This reduces to just 10mm if the damage is in front of the driver.

60 - Motoring

Windscreen wipers Check that the rubbers aren’t split or damaged and also check that they clear the screen.

Horn Give it a press, if it makes a noise, you’ll be fine.

Seats and Seatbelts All seats must be securely fitted, with the driver’s seat being able to adjust forwards and backwards.

Pull out each seatbelt, checking for any damage to the material. Tug sharply on each belt to ensure it reacts as it should if you had to brake hard.

Screenwash Always top up your screenwash before going for an MOT – something as simple as a splash of water could end in a fail at some test centres.

Fuel and engine oil Make sure that the oil level is as it should be and also make sure it has enough fuel. A test centre could turn you away if either of these are low as it will mean that they are unable to carry out emissions testing.
