Buy Once, But Give Twice This Christmas Cards For Good Causes – the UK’s largest multi-charity Christmas card organisation is urging local residents to buy once but give twice during the festive season.

The charity organisation sells high quality Christmas cards for over 300 national and local charities in pop-up-shops across the UK, including one in East Grinstead Library, which is open until 20th December. Running with the help of local volunteers ensures costs are kept as low as possible, meaning that 70p from every £1 spent (less VAT) goes directly to the card buyers chosen charity.

Chief Executive of Cards for Good Causes says. ““The great thing about sending charity Christmas cards is that you buy once but give twice, once to the person you send the card to and again to a cause that is close to your heart.”

Inspiration for Cards for Good Causes came in 1959, when then secretary of the British Diabetic Association, James ‘Jim’ Jackson gathered together a group of medical charities to publically sell cards at Christmas. This formed the basis of The 1959 Group of Charities, a registered charity and multi-charity membership, which in 1964 began selling cards in empty “Christmas cards are an important town centre shops. Cards for Good source of funding for charities while Causes was formally established as also raising awareness of their the trading arm of The 1959 Group work,” Christine Holland, in 1988.

Since its formation, Cards for Good Causes has helped many charities raise the vital funds they need to continue – with £20 million donated in the last five years alone.

If you’re yet to buy your charity Christmas cards, there’s still time!

The East Grinstead Library pop-up-shop is open Monday – Saturday, 10am – 4pm, until Saturday 20th December.

Cards for more than 35 charities are also available for sale online at www.cardsforcharity.co.uk.

For the last two years, East Grinstead Library have held a Taste of Christmas, providing residents with the opportunity to sample food and drink from local sellers, guaranteed to get them in the festive mood.

2014 Community Highlights Blooming Brilliant!

If you’re a regular reader, you’ll know that we were backing East Grinstead’s In Bloom campaign.

In September, East Grinstead in Bloom and the Town Council attended an award ceremony to collect their certificates, which saw THREE wins for the town, including Best Allotment in the South and South East awarded to Mount Noddy Allotments, Best War Memorial in the South and South East and the publicity, In the Spotlight award.

The team were also commended for six further categories.

“I couldn’t be happier with this year’s results,” East Grinstead Chairmain, Julie Mockford, says. “I want to commend the committee for their continued hard work – they are such a hard working team. It was fabulous that the EGTC team were commended for the excellent work and the well-deserved accolade for their incredible war memorial. I look forward to driving our entry on to winning the illusive GOLD next year.”

School Raises £24k

In the last year, The Friends of St Peters RC Primary School have raised over £24,000, through a summer fun day, murder mystery evening, a fashion show and many more events, to fund the extensive refurbishment of the outdoor play area. “We provided a brand new all-weather canopy, resurfaced some of the play area and bought new equipment for play and learning, as well as a new green house, raised beds, plants and water butts to help the school maintain its eco status,” Sara Vaughan from the Friends group explains. “The area has been completely transformed and the children and staff are really enjoying their new space and equipment.”

Forest Row Fun Run Raises £1,700!

This year’s run, organised by the 1st Forest Row Scout group had a record number of runners completing the 10k and 5k challenge, with 234 entrants taking part.

“We are trying to raise £8,000 - £10,000,” Hazel Best, head of fundraising says. “The run plays a big role in helping us and the local community reach our goal so we would like to extend a huge thank you to all involved.”

Volunteering Success

East Grinstead Council for Voluntary Service ran a very successful Volunteers’ Fair in East Grinstead Library in February 2014. The event attracted 166 visitors who were able to browse the stalls of 22 local organisations all seeking volunteers. Terry Sumner, Volunteers’ Manager at Chequer Mead Community Arts Centre, told us: “We had several offers of help and recruited two new volunteers to assist with the Bar and Front of House.”

The gift of

kindness How many times do you walk down the street, head buried in a phone, or looking at the ground, not seeing anyone else? In the place you live, do you know the names of your neighbours?

Whilst walking down a street a few months ago, I looked over and said ‘good morning’ to the lady walking down the street in the opposite direction.

Rather than being alarmed, she told me I was the first person she’d spoken to all day. That small act had lifted her spirits.

I am very keen to take time out to offer free hypnotherapy talks to groups on at least a monthly basis.

The overwhelming response I’ve been getting from those that attend is; it’s the comfort they find in knowing someone cares about them enough to give an hour of their time.

How can you spread the gift of kindness?

Compliment those around you – tell someone how great they look. Pop into see a relative in a nursing home or volunteer an hour’s time at one, listening to stories and having a cup of tea with one of the residents.

I have learnt so much about the British history this way.

I spent a number of hours talking to a lady who was one of the Enigma team in World War II. You suddenly realise what an easy life we lead, when you talk to the older generations.

How about offering to babysit for a friend or a neighbour for a couple of hours or an evening?

It might be the first time they’ve been able to go out without a child in tow.

Kindness does not have to cost a penny but to the receiver it can feel like a priceless gift, to the giver, the knowledge that a little kindness goes a long way.

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?

• Addictions (e.g. alcoholism, nicotine) • Anger management • Anxiety • Blushing • Bruxism (teeth grinding) • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome* • Depression • Eating Disorders • Exam Nerves • Fear of Flying • Food Addiction • Gastric Band Hypnotherapy • Insomnia • Internet addiction • Irritable Bowel Syndrome • Low Self Confidence • Low Self-Esteem • Obsessions & Compulsions • Childbirth • Confidence • Fears and phobias • Grief • Habits e.g. nail biting • Health • Memory • Relaxation • Performance • Personal development • Regression • Relationships • Sexual problems • Sleep Disorders • Sports performance • Stress and anxiety • Weight loss To advertise call - 01293 824088

East Grinstead Rugby Club urges residents Don’t Spend Christmas Alone !

Community Christmas spirit is high in East Grinstead, as the rugby club plans to open it’s doors on Christmas day to prevent local residents spending the day on their own.

The community Christmas day was created by Ian Colville, the rugby club’s bar and catering manager and head groundsman Paul Halsey, who with their partners, will be spending Christmas day at the club, ensuring all runs smoothly and that each guest has an enjoyable time.

“East Grinstead rugby club would like people that are alone at Christmas to come have lunch on us, our rugby club is a big part of this town, and we want to help!”

It’s estimated that across the UK at least 300,000 elderly people will be facing the festive period alone – if you are one of these people, please don’t spend “Paul came to me and said he has Christmas day on your own, always wanted to give something instead call Ian on: 01342 322338 back to the community, so we to guarantee your place to this The free festivities will include put a plan together and came feel good festive occasion. lunch (with donations from up with a community Christmas Iceland, Waitrose and Sainsbury’s, day,” Ian explains. “The guests The FREE Christmas event will as well as local bakers) and even will be picked up by minibus, take place at East Grinstead complimentary transport, with a have Christmas lunch with all the Rugby Club between minibus service available to pick trimmings, there will be bingo 11am -4pm on 25th December. guests up and return them to and games, and even a present their homes, after the event. from the big man too.”

On 25th December, 60 residents who may be facing the festive period by themselves, will be invited to a Christmas day to remember in the newly refurbished club house.

Educate Early For success in later life Sending your child to nursery or enrolling them in other pre-school education may mean they have a better chance of receiving higher GCSE grades, and earning more money later in life, than those who don’t, according to research collated by leading academics.

The report by the Institute of Education, University of Oxford, University of London (Birkbeck) and The Effective Pre-School, Primary and Secondary (EPPSE) found that children who receive pre-school education, are projected to earn £27,000 more than children whose parents don’t enrol them in early years education.

They are also more likely to achieve higher results in English and Maths GCSE exams.

“At Copthorne Prep School, we believe that time spent in the Nursery is hugely beneficial to children’s development and learning.

Our environment is outstandingly imaginative, appropriately challenging and lots of fun!”

40 - Children and Education

Thanks to the government backed Free Entitlement scheme, parents can now send their children to a registered nursery, pre-school or child-minder for free (for up to 15 hours per week, 38 weeks of the year).

Currently 1,150 two year-olds in West Sussex are benefiting from Free Entitlement, but it’s estimated with the expansion of this scheme that now 40% of this age group are now eligible, while over 12,000 three and four-year olds regularly enjoy sessions in West Sussex alone.

“We already know that children benefit in so many ways from an early education before they start school,” West Sussex County Council Member for Children (Start of Life), Peter Evans says.

“Making friends, gaining social skills and getting ready for school are just some examples. But this new research shows that the benefits are wider reaching and the positive effects can last right through into adult life.”

To check your eligibility and also find out how to apply to the scheme visit your local council’s website.

Top tips for

Christmas Decorations

Have your festive decorations lost their sparkle?

Are they gaudy rather than gorgeous, tacky instead of terrific?

Katherine Sorrell has some ideas to bring back your home’s Christmas cheer with wreaths, baubles and garlands galore.

Choose a theme Rather than assembling any old cacophony of decorations, choosing a theme brings unity to the overall look. It should suit the style of your house and the way your family celebrates the festive season, whether laid-back and relaxed, sophisticated or formal.

For some, that might mean a traditional, living fir tree and a colour theme of red, green and gold.

For others, a kitsch fake tree with fluorescent ornaments; or perhaps a minimal, modern style with pure silver and glass. A Scandinavian theme would involve simple decorations in red and white, while a colourful, contemporary theme would be based around one or two bright colours.

Dress the tree Start by winding it with lights – making sure they’re evenly distributed by occasionally switching them on and standing back for an overall impression. Use a small stepladder if necessary to reach the top. Next, drape your garlands, again aiming for evenness and an impression of generosity without overloading the tree. On small or slim trees, use slender garlands; on larger trees you can afford to go for heavier, fancier garlands. Last, hang your ornaments, with the largest first, filling in around them with smaller ones. Don’t hang all the ornaments on the tips of branches – placing some nearer the trunk creates a sense of depth and interest.

Hang a wreath For some, the making of a family wreath using foraged leaves, flowers, seeds, nuts and fruit is a significant part of the holiday season; for others, creating a decorative wreath offers the chance to experiment with exciting new materials, from tinsel to feathers, pearls to buttons.

Alternatively, ready-made examples are available in any style imaginable, from classic to contemporary, heart-shaped or circular, small or large, utterly simple or lavish and complex.

Whatever its style, a Christmas wreath always provides a wonderful sense of festive welcome.

Make some decorations Home-made Christmas decorations can be as elaborate or simple as you wish, be they charmingly childish or ultra-sophisticated. Multi-coloured paper chains are the ultimate in family favourites, as are cutwork paper stars and clove-studded oranges. How about pom pom snowmen, peg-doll angels or glitter-covered pine cones? Or mini stocking shapes cut out of felt and ginger biscuits to hang from the tree? It’s all great fun and will create happy memories for years to come.

Wrap your presents Transform present-wrapping from a chore to a pleasure by taking a little extra time and trouble.

When they’re piled under the tree they will look so much better if they’re colour-coordinated and criss-crossed with ribbons and bows. Inexpensive paper – even brown paper or newsprint – looks lovely if adorned with a home-made label, while sequins, feathers, glitter, stamped designs and wired beads can all provide additional allure. For a frivolous finishing touch add a tiny pine cone, iced biscuit or small bauble.

Sort out your cards An abundance of cards can soon appear to cover every available surface, so it pays to establish a system as soon as they start arriving. The most straightforward option is to clear a shelf or two, and arrange them close together, large at the back and small at the front, in neat rows. Smaller cards can be tucked around a mirror or picture frame. An alternative is to staple them to ribbons (weighted by a bauble or pine cone) to hang in rows from a mantelpiece or along the side of the staircase.

Create displays Nothing says Christmas like poinsettias in pots, scented candles on the mantelpiece and ivy, holly and mistletoe draped over every available surface. Bowls of clementines or nuts are both ornamental as well as edible, while baubles or fairy lights (the latter placed near a handy socket) can also be bundled into a glass bowl or vase for a glittery effect. Now’s the time to dig out that special table runner and your best crockery, glassware and cutlery for an eye-catching table display, finished off with a dish, tray or platter filled with greenery, candles and other festive decorations.

Looking after your tree Buy a tree that’s as fresh as possible; bright green and, ideally, displayed in water, out of direct sunlight. As soon as possible, cut half an inch off the bottom of the trunk, to help the tree absorb water. Trim away low-down or interior branches that you don’t need.

Put the tree in a stand that can hold plenty of water, and never let it run out. Try not to stand the tree in a sunny window or near a radiator. If you wish, you could add a couple of cups of corn syrup to the water to provide the tree with extra nourishment. www.mantramagazines.co.uk

Winter Planters

Even if you’re sure you’re not going to venture into your garden much this winter, make sure you have every possible encouragement by creating a winter planter or two.

They will not only look gorgeous from the warm comfort of your house, but will also help to coax you outside from time to time.

Choose a larger container as it’s more likely to protect the roots on the plants due to the greater volume of compost.

I’d avoid any container less than 30cm (12in) diameter if possible.

Any container will insulate the roots a little, but one made from thick wood (such as a wooden trough or window box, or a half-barrel) will be very effective. Good quality, fairy chunky plastic also works quite well. Try to avoid metal as this tends to conduct cold.

Warm undergarments are all the rage for winter planters. A lining of bubble-wrap polythene or even a few layers of old fabric or carpet, sandwiched between the sides of the container and the compost will help to keep both compost and roots warm.

If you live in a particularly cold area, or simply want to decrease the risk of winter damage further, try to position winter planters out of the windiest areas.

58 - Gardens

If possible place them fairly close to a house wall on the south or west side as this will help to provide a little extra warmth.

You’ll be amazed at the range of plants available at your local garden centre for adding winter colour and interest to pots and planters. Some of my favourites are the universal or other winter flowering pansies or even hardier smaller flowered violas.

In warmer areas, you can add bright patches of colour to your display using the ‘winter cherry’ or solanum which has bright yellow and orange fruits. You could also use a few winter flowering cyclamen but these definitely need a very sheltered spot such as a window box on a protected wall.

Don’t forget to add in a few early spring flowering bulbs such as miniature narcissus, crocus and miniature iris. Hide them beneath the For some seriously sturdy winter colour, roots of your winter bedding plants; try the winter flowering heathers as you’ll forget they are there until they these make a good base for the display burst out in spring. and you can then add trailing plants such as variegated ivies to help provide By Pippa Greenwood extra colour, texture and interesting leaf shapes. All these plants will last Visit Pippa’s website for years, not just the winter months. www.pippagreenwood.com and sign up At this time of year, garden centres offer very tiny versions of shrubs such as skimmias, Pieris or hollies and many of the dwarf conifers. They will provide good colour and interest in a container for a year or two and can then be planted in your garden to reach their full size.

for ‘Grow Your Own with Pippa Greenwood’.

Choose from a fantastic selection of vegetables that Pippa will send to you at just the right time for planting AND each week you receive an email telling you all you need to know to ensure great results – from just £29 for up to 66 garden-ready plants.
