We have some interesting articles and features in this months edition ranging from a very interesting and article in the House & Home section called ’How to create a Boutique Hotel Bedroom’. We have a super recipe for Savoury Carrot and Sun-dried Tomato Muffins which I made with my two grandsons last weekend and they absolutely enjoyed the making process and eating the muffins too!

We have an update from Jonathan Evison our Police and Crime Commissioner on pages 12/13 who has been very busy since the last published update - I should point out his Community Safety Fund which might be of interest to a good number of local organisations in the Goole area. As usual we finish with Fiona Dwyer’s column.

If you have not advertised in the magazine before and are considering it - please give me a call to discuss options - we are here to help.

Until next month please stay safe.

How to create a Boutique Hotel Bedroom

Give your bedroom a sophisticated, curated facelift with expert insight from Cori-Anna Lake, creative director and interior designer.

Boutique hotels are in the business of creating relaxing and characterful relaxing bedrooms that exude personality while also ensuring a good night’s sleep. But why should these design secrets be reserved for professional spaces?

Cori-Anna Lake, freelance creative director, who has over 15 years of experience in interior design, shares her tips for achieving this luxe look at home

PRIORITISE THE BED

‘Your bed defines your bedroom both in terms of space and function. While we always recommend dressing your bed in crisp, white linen, there are still plenty of opportunities to bring individuality to the room. Patterned headboards offer a great way to add vibrancy and texture, as do throws and cushions.’

CURATE A COLOUR SCHEME

‘There are no rules regarding the palette for a hotel room. However, we often find that keeping the colours here light and fresh creates a sense of calm and serenity, which is welcomed when you are away and is just as important while at home. Introduce singular pops of colour on curtains, armchairs and cushions to add interest

without being overpowering.’

CONSIDER THE ESSENTIALS

‘Think about pieces that are commonplace in hotels that you love to stay in – almost every one will include a writing desk, accent chair and wardrobe. It is also important to ensure power points are accessible for charging phones

House & Home 4

These days most homeowners suffer from a lack of storage space. So many precious items that need to be kept – but where to store it all? That’s where Yorkshire Loft Ladders come in.

The company, based locally, offers homeowners the opportunity to maximise their storage space with a loft ladder, 50 sq ft of boarding and a light all fully fitted in less than a day from just £277 + VAT. But it’s not just the affordability of the package the company offers that makes Yorkshire Loft Ladders stand out as manager Warren Ingleson explains:

‘Our watchwords are Quality,

Integrity and Value. Quality in the materials that we use for all our installations and the fact that all our loft packages are fitted by time served tradesmen so our customers are assured of the best job. Integrity in that we will turn up at the time we say and make sure the house is spotless when we leave, and Value in that we offer our services at a price people can afford. Our business relies on referrals and we got a huge amount of our calls from people who have been referred to us by our existing customers - that simply wouldn’t happen if we didn’t adhere to our overriding principles.

At the end of the day the old adage that happy customers

small, call Warren on 0800 612 8359 and he’ll be happy to pop round and give you a no obligation quote so you too can make use of your loft!

lead to more happy customers is true and we work hard to make that happen for every installation we carry out!’ So, if you want to make use of your loft space, however big or House & Home 5 To contact Telephone: 01964 552 470 • Email: ask@daltonspire.co.uk • www.daltonspire.co.uk

– we often integrate charging pads into drawers in bedside tables. Accessible light switches above the bedsides are also a must.’

ADD HOTEL TOUCHES

‘It’s the little things that create a holiday feel. Whether you are looking to treat yourself or give guests a warm welcome, a sleep balm and room spray on the bedside table will help to create the perfect ambience. It is nice if these also match the brand of hand soap, shampoo and conditioner in your bathroom or en-suite. No hotel experience is complete without a tea tray. Vintage trays dressed with teas, coffee and a kettle, and a decanter of water on the bedside tables are nice

touches too. Details like these will elevate your bedroom and make the time you spend there a little more luxurious.’

PILLOW TALK

A shapely upholstered headboard and an abundant pile of pillows (all the better for sitting up for breakfast in bed) will give a bedroom a boutique hotel look.

BUDGET MATTERS

‘Creating a boutique hotel feel doesn’t have to cost the earth – you just need to

prioritise when to spend and when to save. Invest in comfort – good mattresses and bedlinen add the most excellent sense of luxury to a hotel room. Savings can be made in sourcing vintage and antique pieces, such as armchairs or wardrobes, which can be picked up inexpensively.’

New walk launching

To celebrate East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s Walking for Health programme turning 20 this year, the Health and Wellbeing Team are working in partnership with the RSPB Blacktoft Sands Nature reserve in Goole.

The first nature walk and talk will take place on Monday, 5 June, meeting at the RSPB Nature Reserve: DN14 8HR. Walks will take place on the first Monday in the month, with the last one on 4 September, when they will cease for the winter. Each will last an hour, with refreshments to finish. The walks will start at 10amparticipants should arrive at 9.45, and meet at the Visitor Centre on site. Blacktoft Sands nature reserve is managed by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. It is located on the south bank of the river Ouse, where

the waterway widens to become the Humber Estuary. This magical reserve hosts a diverse population of waders, warblers, and raptors, which can be easily spotted from the accessible trails and hides.

Everyone is welcome on the walk, no matter what age or ability; however, due to the nature of the reserve, some of the walks will include some steps and uneven surfaces. No specialist equipment is needed but comfortable shoes/ trainers are recommended, that walkers do not mind getting a little bit muddy. Walkers should bring their own binoculars if possible, but some are available on site if required. Due to the wildlife and birds nesting, dogs

are not allowed on site. East Riding Health Walks welcomes new walkers throughout the year. Over 70 walks take place each month, starting from a variety of locations.

To walk with any of East Riding’s Health Walk groups or train as a volunteer walk leader, please contact Sue Smethurst by phone 07770881178, or email sue. smethurst@eastriding.gov.uk. See the full programme and find out about other health walks in the area by visiting http://www2. eastriding.gov.uk/leisure/sportand-play/clubs-and-activities/ activities-for-adults/

Savoury carrot and sun-dried tomato muffins

Makes 12 muffins

For this recipe, I use chickpea flour, which is a powerhouse of nutrients and minerals, high in fibre and protein. These muffins are also a fab way to squeeze extra vegetables into your diet, and carrots are a wonderful source of beta-carotene, which our body converts into vitamin A, one of the most essential vitamins to help prevent premature ageing.

INGREDIENTS

180g chickpea flour (also called gram flour)

40g buckwheat flour

30g nutritional yeast

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tbsp dried oregano

1 tsp ground turmeric

1 tsp salt

A twist of black pepper

400ml oat milk

2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

30g pitted olives (I use Kalamata), finely chopped

40g sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped

2 medium carrots, finely grated

METHOD

1 Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/ gas mark 6 and line a 12-hole muffin tray with muffin cases. In a large bowl, mix together the chickpea flour, buckwheat flour, nutritional yeast, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, smoked paprika, oregano, turmeric, salt and pepper.

2 In a separate bowl, mix the oat milk with the olive oil, olives, sun-dried tomatoes and carrots. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until you don’t see anymore dry flour.

3 Place around 3 tablespoons of the mixture in each muffin case, and bake in the oven for 30 minutes, until risen and golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool. down completely. Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2-3 days.

YOUR POLICE AND CRIME COMMISSIONER JONATHAN EVISON

I’m pleased to bring you the latest update from my office on the work we are doing to improve community safety in Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire.

In my role as Commissioner, I oversee the governance of Humberside Police on behalf of the public and I am delighted that the recent influx of new officers continues, bringing more police to our streets to cut crime and improve your safety. In April I attended an attestation ceremony with Chief Constable Lee Freeman where another 81 officers were sworn in and are now undergoing their basic training.

MORE POLICE = BETTER SERVICE

The number of police officers in the force is now at its highest for thirteen years and I was proud to be invited by the Chief to see them starting their journey to serve the public. The difference is being felt in our communities too, as the numbers of neighbourhood officers and patrol teams are swelled. We are constantly reviewing our financial situation to make sure that the numbers of police officers can stay at a high level, and I’m pleased to report there is no sign of that changing soon.

There will never be a time when we have enough police, which is why we are working hard to maintain and increase the numbers of officers. Crime will always occur, and the wide variety and types of crime is a completely different world, when compared to a few decades ago. Serious crime such as drugs, violent and sexual offences need highly trained officers and staff to investigate these offences, find and arrest those responsible and bring them to justice. Recently Humberside Police has been recruiting more detectives in addition to uniformed officers, which will improve investigations and convictions. More police means the Chief Constable can also staff other specialist teams, particularly the rural crime team based in Driffield working across the many rural communities of the East Riding. There have been some excellent results combatting theft of agricultural machinery, reducing wildlife crime and working with farmers to make their land and property more secure. I was particularly pleased to see recent arrests made for hare coursing, a cruel practice which brings offenders from far and wide into our countryside to hunt hares for sport and engage in illegal gambling.

The use of off-road motorcycles on farmland also causes disruption and officers are now better equipped to tackle this anti-social behaviour as part of Humberside Police’s Operation Yellowfin, which targets offenders both in urban and rural communities and has resulted in many stolen bikes being recovered. If you are experiencing problems with anti-social motorcycle use, don’t sit in silence, contact Humberside Police on 101 to report it, quoting Operation Yellowfin, which enables intelligence to be gathered, hotspots identified, and patrols deployed to the right areas.

Last year the Humber Violence Prevention Partnership was launched with funding from the Home Office. I chair the partnership board which brings together the Police, Councils, Probation and Public Health to examine the root causes of violent crime and co-ordinate the local response to reducing and preventing violence, including domestic abuse, violence against women and girls, knife crime and drug-related crime which sees criminal gangs exploiting young people to become involved in drug supply.

To make a positive difference in these areas of crime we need to change the culture, educate our young people, and provide programmes to divert children and young adults away from crime into more positive lifestyles. The Violence Prevention Partnership has made an impressive start in its first year with almost 30 projects given funding to work with young people. In Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire there are sporting activities such as Goole Youth Action’s ‘In Your Corner’ which engages with challenging and vulnerable young people aged 14-18.

The project has a strong boxing ethos of self-discipline, respect, self-belief, physical and a positive mental health, involving the support of a boxing coach and dedicated youth workers. Other programmes are working with adults who supervise or work with young people to train them in spotting and dealing with the signs of sexual harassment which could lead to abuse, sexual assault or rape. These projects are aimed at changing behaviour, encouraging bystanders to spot signs of abuse and what to do when it occurs. Over 200 people have been trained so far and there are more projects coming this year. For more information on the Violence Prevention Partnership visit www.humbervpp.org

INVESTING IN YOUR COMMUNITY

My Community Safety Fund recently announced the second round of successful projects to receive funding, totalling over £300,000 invested into our communities Humber-wide. We can provide funding of between £500 and £35,000 towards projects that meet the scheme criteria. A total of £1.1m has been allocated to the Fund running until 2025. Some of the latest projects in Hull and the East Riding include:

£32,000 for the PATT Foundation to work with exoffenders to provide education that will lead to a qualification in the horticulture and land-based sector and lead to employment opportunities.

£15,000 for Hull and East Yorkshire Children’s University’s Children In Care project to support children in care to reduce the disadvantages they may face and increase their aspirations.

£35,000 for the Forces Employment Charity to provide specialist programmes to support forces veterans in the Criminal Justice System.

£7,000 for Gilberdyke War Memorial Hall to upgrade their CCTV cameras and lighting to improve security.

If you are involved with a community group, non-profit organisation, Town or Parish Council and have an idea or project to cut crime, anti-social behaviour or improve safety where you live, visit the community section of my website to find out more. Each funding round will be advertised on my website and through My Community Alert so ensure you are registered to receive the latest news.

Following the success of the Community Safety Fund, I have also launched a pilot project in Bridlington to address anti-social behaviour, mainly centred around the impact of drugs. The area in the south of the town was chosen following feedback from residents to Humberside Police as part of their Humber Talking initiative. I’ll update you on the progress in a future article and, if successful, I will look to roll out more projects in other areas in the future.

To keep in touch with announcements and the latest news by email, sign up to My Community Alert at www.mycommunityalert.co.uk

BLUE SKIES AT LAST

I am absolutely loving the gorgeous weather we’re having at the moment (I hope it’s still nice when you’re reading this!). When the sun shines and the sky is blue, everything seems so much more achievable! I’m waking up earlier, with the birds singing outside. Even if I’m tired I want to get up and get out with the dogs as soon as possible because I know a good mile or two walking will set me up perfectly for the day. It puts me into such a good mood and motivates me into action. In winter, I just want to hibernate, but the longer, warmer days definitely put a spring in my step! I hope you’re enjoying the sun. I must take time to drive out to the beautiful East coast for a walk on the beach and a swim in the sea – totally refreshing and great for your mental health.

CELEBRATING THE END OF EXAMS

I don’t know about you but we’ve had GCSEs and A Levels in our house this year so we’re going to be so glad when they’re over! Maybe your children have been doing SATs or they’re sitting exams at university. What I will say is that all of our children have worked really hard and overcome lots of challenges over the last few years so what ever happens, they should be proud of their achievements and celebrating their success. So, whether you’re moving on to secondary school, sixth form college, university,

employment, starting an apprenticeship, having a gap year or anything else, here’s a big well done from me – and for those leaving school, good luck with the rest of your exams and enjoy the extra long summer holiday when you finish!

DISCOVERING TUTANKHAMUN AT THE FERENS

I haven’t managed to see the Tutankhamun exhibition yet at the Ferens Arts Gallery but it’s definitely on my to-do list for June, which is a good thing because it’s only on until June 18th!

It’s one hundred years since archaeologist Howard Carter and his patron, Lord Carnarvon, first saw these amazing golden treasures and we’re getting the opportunity to unearth the stories, myths and controversies surrounding them. Hull Museums has its own collection of exquisitely crafted replicas found in Tutankhamun’s tomb. They were handmade by skilled artisans for the British Empire Exhibition in 1924 and 1925 when ‘Tutmania’ swept the world. I first learned about Howard Carter when I was twelve years old in one of my first history lessons at secondary school and I’ve been fascinated by ancient Egypt ever since. I am really excited about this and can’t wait to see it.

Have a great June everyone! Fiona
