Community News Three Cheers for Volunteers!

Volunteers’ Week will take place from 1-7 June 2014. This is an annual celebration of the fantastic contribution millions of volunteers make across the UK – and 2014 is the 30th anniversary of Volunteers’ Week!

Have you ever wondered how many thousands of volunteers are active in and around East Grinstead? There are hundreds of local charities and community groups that do invaluable work in the community and many groups would not exist were it not for their volunteers. The Bluebell Railway, Standen, Chequer Mead Theatre, East Grinstead Museum and all the local charity shops in East Grinstead (as well as countless other groups) would not be here today if they had no volunteers!

Volunteering can bring many benefits for both the organisation and the volunteer.

People volunteer for a number of reasons they may want to use their existing skills to help a local group or may choose to volunteer to learn a new skill, to meet new people or as a path to employment.

Many groups tell us that just a few hours a month can make a huge difference.

Local case studies: St Catherine’s Hospice Shop - Annie Margretson Annie has been a volunteer at St. Catherine’s Hospice Shop since her husband died of prostate cancer 15 years ago. She says: “The staff took great care of my husband, listening to his needs and treating him in a way that he wanted, and they also took Local volunteering opportunities cover a great care of me and our children” vast range of activities and there is always Annie most enjoys talking to something to suit everyone. Opportunities customers. She says: “It’s more include befriending, mentoring, gardening, than just giving my time; I believe office work, stewarding, drivers, trustees volunteering in the shop is good for me” and youth workers, and many more besides these.

Chequer Mead Community Arts Centre – Gill Astley Gill is very enthusiastic about Chequer Mead Community Arts Centre and wanted to help improve facilities, so she joined the Friends of Chequer Mead, raising funds for the centre. She then became involved with working in the garden and often helps on the bar or in the office. Gill says: “The fact that you are not paid doesn’t affect my enthusiasm for volunteering…

I have been volunteering for more than 20 years with various organisations; things change around the family but I think I will always volunteer” Mandy Cunningham, East Grinstead Council for Voluntary Service

Boxing Clever with Endeavour Felbridge’s Amatuer Boxing Club will be hosting their first show, showcasing the talents of young local boxers on Saturday 31st May at 3pm at Imberhorne Lower School.

The exciting afternoon boasts 12 bouts of the best amateur boxing that our area has to offer, officiated by the Amatuer Boxing Association of England.

Town Mayor (at the time of going to print) Margaret Belsey and her husband, Edward (a former schoolboy boxer himself) will also be attending, along with the Leader of the Town Council who will be donating a Town Council trophy especially for the event.

One name to watch is the club’s Olly Donovan. 15 year old Sackville student Olly, who only joined the team a year and a half ago,

shows great skill and potential, recently winning his first two bouts.

Tickets to the amateur boxing event are £10 per adult and £5 for each child, with money raised helping to grow and expand the club, enabling them to offer further membership places and coaching to even more keen local boxers.

Lingfield’s The Garth opens Gardens for Charity The Garth on Newchapel Road in Lingfield will be opening its gates to the public for the first time, under the National Gardens Scheme (NGS).

Each year the popular garden scheme welcomes 75,000 visitors to over 3,700 privately-owned gardens across England and Wales, raising on average more than £2.5 million for a variety of charities including Macmillan Cancer Support, Marie Curie and Help the Hospices.

This year, for the first time in The Garth’s history, visitors will be welcomed to explore the garden’s nine acre grounds on both 14th and 15th June from 1:30-5:30pm.

With origins dating back to 1729 (when Lingfield Parish contracted local carpenter Thomas Sandford to build a new workhouse) and then re-designed into its present picturesque form by renowned historic building and landscape architect, Walter Godfrey in 1918, who also restored Herstmonceux Castle and Anne of Cleaves House in nearby Lewes, the open garden provides a great opportunity for residents to enjoy this historic local plot, whilst also raising funds for charity.

David and Lana, The Garth’s owners look forward to welcoming visitors on Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th June. Admission is £5 for adults, children go free.

SIR ARCHIBALD MCINDOE

Sir Archibald McIndoe to be remembered forever

The bronze statue of Sir Archibald McIndoe, the pioneering plastic surgeon renowned for his work rehabilitating badly burned aircrew in World War 2, will be unveiled by Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal, Patron of The Blond McIndoe Research Foundation, on Monday 9 June.

It will be sited outside Sackville College, the Jacobean Almshouse, in East Grinstead High Street.

Sculpted by Martin Jennings, the over life size statue will show McIndoe with his arms reassuringly on a patient’s shoulders communicating his extraordinary confidence. The Oxford based sculptor is well known for his statues of Sir John Betjeman at St Pancras station and Charles Dickens in Portsmouth.

“This will provide a lasting memory to East Grinstead’s world famous adopted son and will ensure the story of the people of East Grinstead, known as ‘the town that did not stare’, will always be remembered”, said Jacquie Pinney a member of the McIndoe Memorial steering group and CEO of the Blond McIndoe Research Foundation.

So far, over £96,000 towards a target of £175,000 has been raised to cover the cost of the statue and the surrounding stone landscaping.

“We are extremely grateful to all the hundreds of individuals and the local businesses that have supported our appeal,” said Jacquie Pinney. We still have some way to go to reach our target but now we have a date for the unveiling we hope this will encourage other people, businesses and organisations which have not yet supported the appeal to help us now.”

The Duke of Edinburgh is also President and a long standing supporter of The Guinea Pig Club.

D-Day 1944: Democracy 1- 0 Tyranny Ted Bruning On 6 June we celebrate the 70th anniversary of the greatest victory achieved by democracy over tyranny.

And while most of the coverage of this great day will undoubtedly and rightly focus on the unflinching selflessness of the 50,000 Allied soldiers of the assault waves who faced German artillery and machine-guns across the open beaches of Normandy, it’s worth sparing a moment to contemplate why democracy won.

The majority of the soldiers who contested those narrow strips of sand were young workingclass men, broadly similar in training and equipment, in courage and determination; indistinguishable from each other, in fact, in everything except the language they spoke.

What separated the victors from the vanquished that day was the nature of the political systems that directed them.

The young British, American, and Canadian men confronting the concrete, barbed wire, landmines, and guns of the Third Reich may not have known it, but the young German men opposing them had already been fatally undermined before a shot was fired. A leadership that was corrupt, incompetent, divided, toadying, blinkered, obstinate, and alternately swollen with pride and prostrated by fear had made so many idiotic decisions over the past two years that no amount of heroism on the part of its troops could redeem it. And at the heart of all the double-dealing, betrayal, and rottenness stood Adolf Hitler.

After the invasion of Russia in June 1941 Hitler more or less retreated to his Eastern Front HQ, where he was surrounded by a small cadre of placemen, yes-men, courtiers, toadies, flatterers and cronies who told

him only what they thought he wanted to hear. He governed the Reich via a maze of overlapping bureaucracies which squabbled for influence and ceaselessly stabbed each other in the back. And despite his remoteness he insisted on making even the smallest tactical decisions himself, paralysing his front-line commanders.

This administrative chaos effectively crippled the Germans facing the invasion.

They had almost no armoured support because Rommel, the commander on the ground, knew that tanks couldn’t move from rear positions to the front because of Allied air-power, and therefore wanted the armour right at the water’s edge.

To the commander of Panzer Group West, Geyr von Shweppenburg, this was heresy. They appealed to Hitler.

His compromise was that the available armour should be divided between them, but that von Schweppenburg couldn’t commit his tanks without Hitler’s express orders – which, of course, came too late.

As a result the Me262 didn’t appear until September 1944, far too late to make a difference.

The occasions on which Hitler accepted bad advice that chimed with his preconceptions and fantasies and ignored sound advice that didn’t are too numerous to relate, but they cost the Germans dear on 6 June 1944, and they probably cost Germany the war.

And here’s the contrast between tyranny and democracy. Churchill wasn’t short of bad ideas himself, trying to stop Nazi bombers by dropping parachute mines on them from above being one.

And the Allied leaders weren’t short of dissent: the row over Then there were the phantom the division of US naval resources divisions in Kent and Sussex between Europe and the Pacific that appeared to threaten the rumbled on for two years.

Pas de Calais. Their existence But Churchill and Roosevelt was conjured up and sedulously surrounded themselves with fostered by Allied deception strong, capable advisers who specialists, and 15 German weren’t afraid to argue their divisions remained in the Pas corners and who had nothing de Calais to meet the expected to fear from doing so. Dowding, second landing. But the Germans in charge of Fighter Command, already believed in them: in threatened to resign in late May an astonishing example of 1940 when Churchill proposed simultaneous invention, their to send more fighter squadrons existence had already been to prop up the French. And fabricated by German army Churchill bowed to his superior intelligence, the Abwehr, as part judgement! of an intricate plot to discredit its rival, Himmler’s Sicherheitsdienst.

At the Sharp End of D-Day D-Day was the most intensivelyplanned operation in military history.

But something had to go wrong; and it did so during the storming of Omaha by American troops.

All 329 bombers overshot – not one of 13,000 bombs hit the defences.

The 32 amphibious tanks were launched 10 miles from shore – only two landed. The naval bombardment missed the German guns but set the sea-grass ablaze, obscuring the landmarks by which the landing-craft were meant to navigate. Many landing-craft beached on a sandbar 500 yards offshore – their troops either drowned while disembarking in deep water or were killed by machine-gun fire. Most of the assault wave who did get ashore were either hit crossing the shingle or pinned down under the sea-wall, frantically cleaning rifles clogged with wet sand. In the chaos units were jumbled up, many officers being separated from their men.

Eventually, weight told.

The Germans were thinly stretched and couldn’t defend all the exits.

Small parties of Americans found their way into the German rear, while the follow-up wave of tanks neutralised the German guns.

But it took six hours of carnage to subdue the defences and clear the beach – six hours during which 1,400 American soldiers were killed and the same number wounded.

Whatever was going on at the respective high commands, that was the reality for the men at the sharp end of D-Day.

Jolly Farmers celebrates National Butchers Week with a creation from the Surrey history books

Surrey Hills Heritage Sausage & grain mustard mash, new season asparagus spears & balsamic onion gravy

The Jolly Farmers pub in Buckland near Reigate is helping their local butcher put a lost sausage back on people’s plates. When pub owners Jon and Paula Briscoe – staunch supporters of local food – approached Robert Hewitt of Reigate’s Robert and Edwards Butchers about creating a sausage that uses locally sourced, free range pork, little did they know that it would lead to the discovery of a longforgotten recipe. Now, the historic banger has been re-named The Surrey Hills Heritage Sausage.

“The pork and apple sausage is made to an original recipe created by Robert Hewitt’s father, Norman,” explains Jon Briscoe. “He ran a pig farm less than two miles from here and was something of a sausage expert who supplied top stores such as Selfridges, so when Robert found his recipe, we agreed to give it a try. Once we’d tasted it, we knew this was a sausage that people needed in their lives – a handmade, heritage product we would be proud to serve to our customers.”

Its local credentials have earned the sausage the approval of Surrey Hills Enterprises which supports the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), making it the only banger in the Surrey Hills to be permitted to display the prestigious Surrey Hills badge of approval. To further show their commitment to the local area, The Jolly Farmers will be making a donation of 5% to the Surrey Hills for every portion of sausage and mash served during the course of their new spring menu, ploughing funds back into the local area to encourage conservation, preservation and enhancement.

“The discovery of this heritage sausage from such close proximity to The Jolly Farmers is just a fantastic story. We are honoured to be the driving force behind this wonderful collaborative project bringing pub, butcher and Surrey Hills Enterprises together through our shared values,” says Jon. “Our business model is about supporting and working with local food and drink producers, so this is a perfect fit for us.”

• Robert and Edwards butchers in Reigate will also be selling the Surrey Hills Heritage Sausage and making a 5% donation to the Surrey Hills Trust Fund.

Serves 2 but easily doubled Ingredients 4 Surrey Hills Heritage sausages (available at Jolly Farmers deli & Robert & Edwards butchers)

2 medium Maris Piper potatoes Gravy granules 1 tsp Eddie Webster’s Grain Mustard Knob of unsalted butter 50 ml double cream, or to taste Briscoe’s Balsamic Onion Chutney New season asparagus spears Cracked black pepper Splash of red wine - optional (all ingredient can be sourced from Jolly Farmer deli shop)

Method 1. Place the sausages in a lightly oiled roasting tin in preheated oven at 180c for 12 minutes, turning occasionally. After eight minutes, add asparagus to roasting tray and season with black pepper.

2. Peel, chop, rinse & boil potatoes with a pinch salt until tender. Drain off excess water then add a generous knob of unsalted butter, a glug of cream and grain mustard, mash until smooth and season to taste.

3. For the gravy, bring 285 ml (half a pint) of water to the boil, add a splash of red wine and granules then whisk until thickened. Finish by adding a generous spoon of onion chutney.

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.

Making an

Entrance

A hallway is like a handshake: the introduction to your home, creating a look and feel that should be both attractive and welcoming, as well as providing useful storage, explains Katherine Sorrell.

Design and decorating Width is the crucial issue in hallways, and unless you’re prepared to do some substantial building work and remove a wall, you’re probably stuck with what you have. To increase the feeling of space in a narrow hallway, use pale colours and add large mirrors (ideal for checking your reflection just before you leave the house, too). Keep the space as clear as possible by adding only the most essential items of slender storage furniture, and using the full height of your walls rather than encroaching on floor space.

A sophisticated modern coat stand will stand out in your hallway.

42 - HOMES

If, on the other hand, you have a large and spacious hallway – lucky you!

Think of it as an extra living space and make the most of it by adding a sofa or chairs, bookcases or a writing desk. For plenty of inspirational ideas, see Hallways, Corridors and Staircases by Leslie Geddes-Brown, with fabulous photography

by Christopher Drake (Ryland, Peters & Small, £25).

Whatever the size of your hall, consider it as a linking room and make sure your choice of decorative schemes works well when doorways to other rooms are open.

If you have chosen a pale colour scheme for the walls, woodwork could be slightly darker for interest. Halls that see a lot of wear and tear could be painted with an extra-tough paint, or clad with tongue-and-groove panelling, tiles or hard-wearing wallpaper.

R H UNCOVERED

Fabulous flooring Halls and stairs are high-traffic areas, so ensure that your flooring is non-slip, durable, resistant to dirt and simple to clean – if you can mop it, so much the better.

Stone, ceramic or quarry tiles, or colourful Victorian encaustic tiles, are all easy to care for, while solid wooden boards or parquet require only some regular polishing or waxing.

Elegant, high quality wood laminate flooring enhances any hall, and looks fantastic in this luxuriously large space. Linnea oak tower flooring, around £33 per m2, Kährs (023 9245 3045, www.kahrs.co.uk)

Cheap wood laminates may not last too long in such a well-used space. Lino or vinyl can look impressive, too, especially when laid in patterns.

Carpet, however, is more problematic as you’ll need to choose a colour or pattern that won’t show the dirt – and make sure that it is suitable for a hallway: an 80:20 twist classified for heavy domestic use is often the best.

www.mantramagazines.co.uk

Under-floor heating is ideal for narrow halls, but do check that it will be compatible with your flooring. On the other hand, if there’s room, you could opt for eye-catching radiators, perhaps a period-style cast-iron column or an eye-catching modern type.

Hall lighting doesn’t need to be bright enough for reading, but it should be welcoming and lead the eye into your home: it could be an amazing chandelier (given high enough ceilings) or a series of recessed ceiling downlights. In a narrow hall, avoid wall lights – they will just act as obstacles.

cupboards with plain doors, (perhaps painted the same colour as the walls, or even mirrored to maximise light) ranked along one wall, will hold masses yet be hardly noticeable. On the other hand, you could make a statement with an eclectic selection of free-standing cupboards, sideboards, tables, benches, dressers, baskets, shelves and so on. If necessary, fit hooks or pulleys high up on walls to hold bikes, and perhaps a coat stand or row of pegs for everyday coats and bags.

Umbrella stands and boot racks are ideal for spacious, country-style halls. Somewhere to keep post and keys is a good Storage idea, too, whether a bowl and Most people store a variety of things in their halls, from coats, rack on a dresser or a small, scarves and hats to phone books, wall-mounted cupboard and set of hooks.

What about mowers? The one you choose will probably be determined by cost as well as the job it can do. If you have a level, fairly high-quality lawn then a cylinder mower is best.

If the surface of your lawn is the slightest bit uneven, then a rotary mower is a better choice as it will cope much better in ‘adverse’ situations. If you remove a fair amount of grass at each cut then the clippings should be raked up immediately. However, if you produce only tiny clippings then during dry weather you can leave them on the lawn to help conserve soil moisture.

RH UNCOVERED CASE STUDY

RH Uncovered: Case Study Becky Wells, Health and Wellness

Client:

Becky Wells is a health and wellness expert, specialising in hypnotherapy and personal fitness. Becky approached us in 2013 regarding the possibility of featuring her services in the RH Uncovered magazines having been drawn to the wealth of expert articles that we carry each month. Becky’s enthusiasm for her profession led us to invite her to become a regular contributor to our Health and Wellbeing section. Here she tells us why she chose RH Uncovered magazines.

1) Why did you decide to advertise your business with RH Uncovered magazines in the first place?

When I first set up my hypnotherapy practice I knew that I wanted to work with my local community. I knew I had to advertise myself but with so many local publications around I didn’t know which way to go.

My practice is based within the RH10 postcode and so I was getting and reading a copy of the magazine each month.

I loved the local content and editorial in the magazine and decided to give the team a call.

Becky Wel ls Health and Welln ess

Sector: Health & B eauty Advert S ize: Quar ter Page (2013) Client sin ce: 2013

6 months down the line I am still receiving a high number of calls quoting the magazine.

The calls are consistent throughout the month and the number of calls I receive each month is growing.

and the quality of calls I get have made my advertising decision an easy one.

The team have remained supportive throughout.

I have regular contact with them.

They are always there to help and advise me on my next month’s campaign. I have found working with them completely stress free and professional and this has left me free to carry on working in my now very busy practice.

I am coming to the end of my contract with the magazine and I am excited to meet with Nikki, Carly and the team to discuss renewing my contract with them. I have some exciting things coming up in my business and sharing this news with their readers makes sense.

3) Why would you choose the I arranged to meet with Nikki RH Uncovered titles over a coffee and I was impressed over other magazines at how much interest Nikki you have used? showed in my business. She advised me on the best way to I often hear people commenting spend my budget and supported on the magazine as a reliable me through my first campaign source of local information. and even came up with some It’s trusted, it’s read and the great ideas on how my advert reliable distribution means I should look and read. know that my advert is being seen by the people that I want 2) How successful would you to attract to my business. say that your campaign with I always leave copies in my the RH Uncovered magazines clinic and it’s a great talking point and icebreaker between has been? myself, and my clients.

The response from my campaign The results I have seen in the growth of my business has been overwhelming.

4) What does the future hold for your relationship with RH Uncovered magazines.

The growing popularity of the magazine in the Haywards Heath area means that I can grow my business with them.

Alongside my hypnotherapy business I run ‘pay it forward UK’, we spoke to Shelley about the project and ran an article in their community section.

Again I had response and interest on the back of this article. This shows the magazine is read cover to cover and I am proud to be a contributor to the magazine.
