Welcome to DNfourteen Magazine Welcome to our August 2021 edition of the magazine I hope that you are all keeping safe and well during these difficult times. Now that we have had the so called ‘Freedom Day’ and restrictions have lifted I am very hopeful that we can continue moving forward and that local businesses and the economy in general can bounce back - it has been very difficult for businesses in and around Goole & Howden over the last eighteen months - so please do, whenever possible; support and buy local.

We have some interesting articles in this months edition ranging from our pick of new books for you to read on your summer holiday or staycations or just quietly at home. We have our usual Gardening advice for all you green fingered readers too. We have a feature on Staycations in the Lake District which is not too far to travel to and is one of the most outstanding areas of natural beauty in the United Kingdom. The Junction are advertising a great selection of up-coming films that are always worth a trip out to view. We also have a couple of drink recipes made with watermelon that I have already tried and can highly recommend.

Until next month please stay safe and follow the Covid guidelines.

Local News

RaisE Business Centre in Goole celebrates steel signing launch event The council celebrated a key milestone in the construction of the multi-million pound RaisE Business Centre in Goole with a ‘steel signing’ launch event. In accordance with the current COVID protocols, up to 30 people from the council, Siemens Mobility, University of Birmingham and Willmott Dixon attended the site for an opportunity to see first-hand the progress of the RaisE Business Centre and observe the final plans.

Several speeches were also made by key stakeholders reflecting on the project before the eagerly anticipated steel signing occurred with the leader of the council, Councillor Jonathan Owen (pictured right), chief executive Caroline Lacey and Siemens Mobility’s Sambit Banerjee the first to add their signatures to the steel. RaisE Business Centre will provide 3,200 square metres of commercial floor space made up of grade-A office and workshop accommodation to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and is well underway on the Goole 36 Enterprise Zone with completion scheduled for early 2022. The striking three-storey building, with a prominent frontage to Tom Pudding Way, will include spacious, modern conference rooms, smaller ground floor meeting rooms, communal break-out areas, free on-site car parking for occupants and visitors and a welcoming communal cafÃ© hub that will act as a focal point for the business park.

Please mention

Each office and workshop, set over the ground and first floor, will range from between 236 square feet to 840 square feet in size. Costs will start at around £25 per square foot, which will include power, heat and light with additional charges in relation to business rates, insurance, telecoms and internet. The full second floor, which will be around 900 square metres, will be the office base for Siemens Mobility, who will look to accommodate around 100 employees on site at RaisE, in addition to the 700 new jobs to be created on the main Goole manufacturing site by Siemens. It is also estimated that the business centre, via its occupiers, will create around 98 new job opportunities once its doors open, whilst 45 construction jobs are currently being generated as a result of the build. This £8.1million project has secured £1.5m from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and £1m from the Getting Building Fund, via the Hull and East Riding Local Enterprise Partnership (HEY LEP), to help finance the project. For further information on RaisE, please contact Amanda at amanda.hoggart@eastriding.gov.uk

Recipe

Watermelon: Summer Drinks Step 2 Grab a handful of mint and clap between your hands to release the essential oils and flavour. Add to the jug. Step 3 Add the rum and watermelon juice. Step 4 Shake. Step 5 In a chilled glass, add crushed ice and pour over the watermelon mix. Garnish with mint and lime wedge.

Watermelon Mojito

Watermelon & Strawberry Granita

SERVES: 4 TIME: 10 Minutes

SERVES: 6 TIME: 4 Hours

Ingredients 1 lime 2 tbsp of simple sugar syrup (boil equal parts sugar and water and let cool completely) Handful of mint 4 measures of white rum 8 measures of juiced watermelon

Ingredients 1 unwaxed lime 100g of golden caster sugar 200ml of water, at room temperature ½ watermelon, peeled, deseeded and cut into chunks 250g of strawberries, hulled and halved, plus extra to decorate, if desired

Method Step 1 Into a cocktail shaker or jug, squeeze the juice of half a lime and add 2 tbsp of simple sugar syrup.

Method Step 1 Thinly pare the rind from the lime and put it in a small saucepan with the sugar and water.

Please mention

Step 2 Squeeze the lime juice into the pan. Step 3 Bring to the boil and simmer for 6-8 minutes until the volume is reduced roughly by half to make a syrup. Step 4 Remove from the heat and set aside to cool to room temperature before removing the lime rind. Step 5 Put the cooled syrup, watermelon chunks and strawberries in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until smooth. Step 6 Pour into a shallow baking dish (ceramic or metal – a metal one will freeze fastest) and spread the bright red pulp evenly. Step 7 Transfer to the freezer and freeze the mixture until the edges begin to set, for about 3035 minutes. Step 8 Remove from the freezer and use a fork to scrape and break up the frozen portions. Step 9 Freeze again, scraping and breaking up the granita every 20-30 minutes until it resembles fluffy shaved ice – the total time will be 2-4 hours.

Literature

Books to read in August The Other Black Girl by Zakiya Dalila Harris Twenty-six-year-old editorial assistant Nella Rogers is tired of being the only Black employee at Wagner Books. Fed up with the isolation and the micro-aggressions, she’s thrilled when Hazel starts working in the cubicle beside hers. They’ve barely started swapping natural hair care tips, though, before a string of uncomfortable events cause Nella to become the office outcast and Hazel employee of the year. Then the notes begin to appear on Nella’s desk: “Leave Wagner. Now.” It’s hard to believe Hazel is behind these hostile messages. But as Nella starts to spiral and obsess over the sinister forces at play, she soon realises that there is a lot more at stake than her career. Dark, funny and furiously entertaining, this will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last twist.

The Maidens by Alex Michaelides The Maidens is the next novel from Alex Michaelides, the man behind the phenomenally successful page-turner The Silent Patient. St Christopher’s College, Cambridge, is a closed world to most. But for Mariana Andros – a group therapist struggling through her private grief – it’s where she met her late husband. For her niece, Zoe, it’s the tragic scene of her best friend’s murder. As memory and mystery entangle Mariana, she finds a society full of secrets, which has been

Please mention

shocked by the murder of one of its own. Behind the scenes, she finds a web of jealousy and rage which emanates from an exclusive set of students known as ‘The Maidens’, a group under the sinister influence of enigmatic professor Edward Fosca. Fosca seems to know more than anyone about the murders – and the victims – and soon becomes the prime suspect in Mariana’s obsessive investigation. Omelette by Jessie Ware If you love Table Manners – the successful podcast hosted by musician Jessie Ware and her mum, Lennie – you’ll love this recent mini memoir from Jessie, which focuses on food. Named Omelette: Food, Love, Chaos & Other Conversations, it’s a collection of things she’s done, seen, thought and tasted. Like food critic Grace Dent’s recent hit Hungry, this will leave you desperate to try the many dishes she peppers throughout the book as she tackles everything from childbirth to roséfuelled dinners at Chateau Marmont. Warm and organised into bite-sized essays, this is ideal for anyone commuting or wanting to dip in and out of a book over the course of a weekend. Assembly by Natasha Brown Natasha Brown has spent a decade working in financial services, after studying Maths at Cambridge University. She began work on her debut novel – Assembly – after receiving a 2019 London Writers Award in the literary fiction category. The narrator is a Black British woman, who’s preparing to attend a lavish garden party at her boyfriend’s family estate in the English countryside. At the same time, she is considering the carefully assembled pieces of herself. As the minutes tick down and the future beckons, she can’t escape the question: is it time to take it all apart? Assembly is a story about the stories we live, namely those of race, class, safety, freedom, winners and losers. And it is about one woman daring to take control of her own story, even at the cost of her life. A thrilling debut.

Travel

Staycation: Our Guide To The Lake District The Lake District is one of the UK’s most enduring and popular destinations – not just for British holidaymakers, but for people who flock to see the stunning landscape from all over the world, too. Whether you’re a dedicated walker or not, the area holds plenty of appeal for families, couples and solo travellers, alike...

Windermere Windermere is a quaint town named after its ten-mile-long lake – the largest in the area. Thanks to its shoreside location, there are plenty of water-based activities to take part in, from boat cruises, to paddle boarding. Climbers can hike Scafell Pike, the tallest mountain in England, while those with kids in tow can take the short trip to Bownesson-Windermere to visit The World of Beatrix Potter. Keswick The market town of Keswick is where to head for the best organic produce and handmade gifts, all of which are sold at the farmer’s market every Thursday and Saturday. Surrounded by famous natural sites such as the Cat Bells mountain, Friar’s Crag and Borrowdale Valley, Keswick’s Derwentwater lake is the ideal spot to take in the breath-taking scenery. Embark on an eightmile walk around the water or take a cruise on the town’s open deck boat, Keswick Launch. Water sports fans can also head to the marina, while those who prefer to keep their feet on dry land should visit Castlerigg Stone Circle, with its panoramic views and stunning mountain backdrop.

Please mention

Ullswater from Arnison Crag Ambleside This town is bursting with National Trust properties, from Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top farmhouse to the 17thcentury Bridge House and colourful Stagshaw Gardens. An Ambleside highlight is Stock Ghyll Force, a stunning 70-foot waterfall that, come springtime, is surrounded by flowers and grassland. Head to Waterhead Pier to catch a steamer ferry to one of the other lakeside villages, or hire a row boat to travel at your own pace.

Ullswater Ullswater is home to the second largest lake in the area, surrounded by mountains on one side and rolling hills on the other. Along with activities such as steamboat cruises, kayak tours, guided walks and pony

trekking, the biggest attraction here is Aira Force, one of the most famous waterfalls in the Lake District, which is said to have inspired Wordsworth’s poetry. There’s a mile-long walking route around the waterfall, where you can expect to spot a variety of flora and fauna, including ‘wishing trees’ which, as legend has it, bring you luck. Ullswater is also home to Helvellyn, the third highest peak in England, which makes for a fantastic, albeit challenging, hike. Grasmere Grasmere is a pretty village popular with tourists thanks to its rows of 19th- and 20thcentury stone houses, as well as traditional tea rooms and gift shops. A trip to Wordsworth’s Dove Cottage is a must – the picturesque property has been turned into a museum honouring the poet and houses some of his original manuscripts. For an afternoon treat, head to Faeryland, a lakeside garden complete with row boats and a charming tea room, or Sarah Nelson’s Gingerbread Shop, which has become a local landmark.

Gardening

How to create a mindful garden It’s time to sow the seeds of a more sensory natural space In today’s world, incredible advances in technology allow us to connect with our loved ones, wherever they are, but that can also come at a cost of feeling overwhelmed by being permanently connected and constantly bombarded with information. But, fortunately, there is no doubt that time spent interacting with nature can be a welcome tonic for the mind and body. Mental health charity Mind explains that spending time in green spaces, or growing food and flowers, can have positive effects on mood, reducing feelings of stress, and helping us to feel more relaxed.

If you’re keen to take up gardening, and want to develop a relaxing green space of your own, it can be tricky to know where to start. In order to create an environment that helps you switch off and become more mindful, it’s useful to think about the five senses when planning your space. By considering sound, sight, taste, touch, and smell, you can begin to develop a sensory garden that helps you tune-in to your surroundings, and provides a necessary break from the stressors of daily life. 1. SOUND Natural noises, such as rainfall and birdsong, are recognised as being peaceful and calming. Rather than listening to them via an app, you can easily tunein to the real thing. Hanging bird feeders in sheltered spots, or placing a bird bath, will encourage and support wildlife numbers. Installing a bubbling water feature will mean gentle

background noise in your garden, too. You should also consider that certain plants and trees, such as long grasses and willow, will create peaceful sounds in the wind, and that more dense foliage can help to block out unwanted noise from nearby roads. 2. TASTE Growing plants you can eat is a magical process. It’s hugely satisfying, and allows us to nurture and observe the development from small seeds to kitchen ingredients. Having an ongoing supply of spinach, beans, or salad leaves means you’ll spend less money at the supermarket, and avoid considerable amounts of plastic packaging. You’re also likely to waste less food, having appreciated the delicate growing

process. If you’re a tea drinker, then it’s wonderful to grow herbs, such as mint, that can be infused in hot water for a relaxing brew. You can also research other botanicals that are great for cocktails and decorating cakes. 3. TOUCH Getting your hands dirty in the process of planting and tending to a garden is a mindful practice in itself, but you can also enhance the experience by introducing a patchwork of textures into your space. Try choosing different plants with soft, shiny, waxy, or hairy foliage. A mixture of cobbles and smooth tiles can be used to create pathways and patios in order to provide a range of textures. If you’ve got space, think about incorporating a springy lawn to walk over barefoot, or run your fingers through for an instant connection to nature. 4. SMELL Scent is often the first thing we associate with a garden, given the wonderful fragrance produced by many beautiful flowers. Depending on your preference, you can grow lavender and jasmine for the ultimate relaxing scents. Try roses, sweet peas, or honeysuckle for sensuous summer smells, or citrus fruits and tomato plants for wafts that are zesty and uplifting. Of course, stimulating smells aren’t limited to flowering plants. Autumnal leaves, rich compost, and freshly cut grass are all nostalgic scents that can help ground us, and identify changing seasons. 5. SIGHT When working on a computer, there’s something inspiring and refreshing about a view of trees or other greenery through the window. Create this for yourself

reflection, while hot colours, like orange and yellow, are linked with joy and excitement. You can get brilliant glazed terracotta pots, patterned cushions, and even outdoor rugs to add a splash of colour and something special to look at. For truly unique features, try upcycling furniture for your outdoor space. Old wooden drawers or

Using the five senses can be a helpful starting point when creating a special spot for unwinding. However, if you’re still stuck for inspiration, try wandering round other gardens or natural areas, such as woodland. Here you’ll experience plants, materials, sounds, and smells that you can often replicate in your own garden. Just remember, you don’t have to have a large outdoor space in order to feel closer to nature. A conservatory, balcony, or even window box, can be ideal for growing plants, developing your green fingers, and boosting wellbeing.
