Downsize without compromise

BLENHEIM PARK DEVELOPMENTS CREATE HOMES WITH THE ‘WOW FACTOR’ – AND THIS COUPLE COULDN’T BE HAPPIER.

ownsizing doesn’t need to mean lowering your expectations, as Andy and Mandy Shackleton found when they moved from their family home in Sheffield into one of Blenheim Park Developments’s luxury new apartments. Exchanging a three-storey house in Millhouses for a brand-new three bedroomed apartment in Nether Edge might seem an extreme move to some, but for Andy and Mandy, both in their fifties, it was one of “the best decisions” they’ve ever made. “Downsizing can be a scary business – one that many people associate with packing up the family home and moving to a small, practical and quite possibly less inspiring new property,” says Mandy. “But Blenheim have shown with this home that it can be an exciting change. They have created something that surprises people. You would not believe the number of people who walk in and stop in their tracks, open-mouthed.” It’s not hard to see why. The kitchen opens on to uninterrupted views through the living room and out to the bright outdoor space, and their fresh start came with a new slate of furnishings, too, starting completely over with a mix of contemporary and modern décor. “We love entertaining our family and friends and tend to congregate in the kitchen, so this will become the heart of our home and it’s just perfect when we open the doors on to the garden. Blenheim and all the site team have been brilliant. They’ve taken us through the development step by step and were even on hand to help as we moved in. We were amazed at what comes as ‘standard’ with the property and we have been able to add extras, personalise our home and customise it to our requirements to give it our personal touch.” Looking out with sunlight streaming through the huge floor-to-ceiling

windows; the exposed layout, urban-chic feel and location of Andy and Mandy’s new home is certainly reassuring that downsizing can be a liberating experience. “We’d heard of Paul Blackburn and Blenheim Park Developments and we knew he specialised in downsizing without compromising on style and specification,” says Andy. “We moved out of a large family home in to one less than half its scope, so it was a proper cut back. But it doesn’t feel anywhere near that small. Much of that is down to the clever design. “We’ve enjoyed watching Lyndhurst Gardens come to life. We have grown-up children who visit us regularly so it is great to still have space they can call home.” Lyndhurst Gardens Apartments comprises luxury open plan living with prices ranging from £599,950-649,950 designed and built by Blenheim Park Developments to create a new standard in luxury living with an unprecedented focus to deliver a truly outstanding standard of quality, synonymous with a Blenheim build. Serviced by undercroft parking with a heated ramp and lift access to all floors, the development has been specifically tailored for anyone over 50 years of age, without children and these exceptional

apartments with exemplary storage solutions will provide a new definitive for anyone looking to downsize without compromise. Situated on a picturesque tree-lined road in a sought-after Sheffield suburb location, Lyndhurst Gardens is set within beautiful gardens and grounds, providing privacy, security and exclusivity and is just a stone’s throw from Chelsea Park and a short distance from Sheffield’s city centre and the majestic Peak District. High quality craftmanship and attention to detail ensure that this premier development delivers unrivalled design, celebrating light and space whilst catering for all of the demands of 21st century luxury living.

HOME TRENDS

Spring clean MAKE ROOM FOR SOMETHING NEW IN YOUR HOME. pring is finally in the air – from the scents of fresh blooms to birds chirping, it’s nice to finally look forward to some sunshine and warmth. And yes, while spring cleaning might be a bit of a drag, just think of all the new items you can bring into your home once you clear out anything that doesn’t spark joy. A change of season is always the perfect excuse to infuse a little newness into your home, courtesy of the hottest trends. Not sure where to start? Well, that’s where we come in. These are the trends we’re most looking forward to bringing home this spring. Prepare to be inspired.

Pops of pink People’s love of millennial pink hasn’t faded, no matter how many trend forecasters have tried to declare it done. Adding a bright pop of pink to your living room through an accent chair or decorative pillow is an easy way to change it up for the transition from winter to spring. Think dreamy vibes year-round.

Clusters of pendant lights

Put a bird on it. No, really

Want to up your lighting situation? Go for multi-pendant fixtures. Especially ones that are made of natural materials, because what says “summer is on its way” more than beautifully soft matt pastel pendants? It’s pretty spectacular when done right and the natural materials also help to tone down how over-the-top such a large number of pendants are, if you’re into a more minimalist look. Pictured: Miniforms Kiki pendant lights £230 from gomodern.co.uk

Yes, this might sound weird, but hear us out. Honestly, birds are really big this season. They’re on light fixtures, wallpapers, and fabrics and bring a touch of the outdoors in. You can always play with just a small fixture or piece of wallpaper and then go a bit bigger when you’re more comfortable. Pictured: freedom printed velvet fabric toucan exotic bird in jungle wildlife pattern upholstery from Yorkshire Fabric Shop yorkshirefabricshop.com

HOME TRENDS

Rattan. But make it modern Rattan started to make an appearance in 2018, but this spring, it’s set to take the interior world by storm. Forget the simpler seventies look – rattan has been given a seriously modern update. Think peacock-inspired bedheads, wicker storage units and rattan and chrome chairs. There’s something out there for every room and budget. It really adds a level of comfort to your home that other materials can’t. Need further persuading? Just check out this ornate round rattan shelf from Rose and Grey roseandgrey.co.uk

Neutral backdrops

Mixed metals

Floral wallpaper

Silver tones are looking fresh and luminous, but that doesn’t mean copper is dead. It just means that 2020 is the year of mixing metals with wild abandon. Can’t say we didn’t call it and if you need some help, take inspiration from this brass-plated Lexington console table from Atkin and Thyme atkinandthyme.co.uk

Love plants but just end up killing them? This spring, we’re seeing a lot of floral wallpaper – and not just the small prints or murals that were previously popular. Instead, these are largescaled prints that surround us with nature’s beauty. This room by Carol Robinson is a perfect example of how florals liven things up.

Soft white walls, as well as warm and neutral stones and pale woods are the perfect backdrop for spring flowers. You can also easily transition them to fall by adding in velvets and other warmer tones as the temps cool down.

Reap the benefits from a simple change WOOLROOM’S NATURAL PRODUCTS ARE SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TO DELIVER A BETTER NIGHT’S SLEEP – AND THEY HAVE A GREAT OFFER FOR YOU, TOO. here are so many reasons that we should be focussing on getting a better night’s slumber. To name but a few; a good night’s sleep can drastically reduce stress, improve your memory, reduce cravings for calorific foods and improve brain function. Simply put; a good night’s sleep will always ensure you’re functioning as well as possible. What many don’t consider when investing in sleep, however, is bedding and the many ways choosing the right type of product can benefit your health. British wool, for instance, is scientifically proven to deliver a better, healthier night’s sleep and whether you invest in a wool pillow, duvet, mattress topper or even a mattress protector, you can be confident that the entire range of bedding from woolroom will be kind to your sleep, as well as being kind to the environment. The real highlight in all their products is the beautiful British wool they use, which is the most sustainable fibre in the world. It will regulate your body temperature and ensure you don’t wake night after night feeling hot and bothered. It is also the UK’s first and only all-natural sleep solution to hold the Allergy UK seal of approval.

44 www.sheffieldvibe.com

Wool is rapidly growing in popularity, as more and more people discover the benefits a simple change can make to their lives and woolroom’s deluxe wool pillow (£59.99) is a fantastic entry into the world of wool bedding. It’s an adjustable option that comes with a zip along the long side, allowing you to open the pillow up, exposing the beautiful wool filling inside. You can add or remove as much wool as needed to tailor to your exact sleeping preference and like all woolroom bedding, the pillow is supplied in an all-natural calico bag which is perfect for storing any spare wool. Feeling a little sceptical? Woolroom understand that this all sounds a little too good to be true, so they offer a 30night sleep trial on all complete bedding set purchases, which includes duvets,

pillows and mattress layers. Meaning you can quite literally sleep on it and return for an exchange or refund if you don’t find that your quality of sleep improves significantly.

Tailoring homes with an environmental conscience My design journey began when I could pick up a pencil.

Through working in various customer focused fields and gaining full qualifications in Electronic Publishing and Interior Design, I have a proven track record of high quality service and delivery. Listening to my clients is vital; after fully understanding their dreams, the creative and problem solving aspects of design starts. Research is thorough to ensure the best version of my clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dreams can be achieved.

Bespoke kitchen and bedroom design and project management "The best team of professionals I have ever experienced!" "Dan and his team of consummate professionals undertook a complete overhaul of our house, which included the installation of a stunning new kitchen. Refreshing in the industry, Dan kept to all his promises - both in terms of quality of products and craftsmanship and the strict deadlines we set. When we spoke to Dan at the outset, it soon became apparent that he could interpret our wishes and ideas into an innovative and creative design. With amazing vision and foresight, he suggested removing a chimney breast and hearth and knocking down a wall to create an expansive family living space, where we could cook, dine and relax afterwards. By project-managing the installation with meticulous attention to detail, Dan ensured that everything fell nicely into place and was well synchronised. This process was assisted very much by an electrician, joiner, plumber and plasterer, who were quite simply outstanding.Â We now have a light and airy kitchen with vaulted ceiling. Everything is perfect. There's a downdraft induction hob, an undermounted sink, a combi microwave oven, a warming drawer, a swan neck lever tap, LED spotlights, tall designer radiators, a quartz worktop and an island kitchen with considerable storage. But Dan and his team did so much more than the kitchen. They installed flooring throughout, put in fitted wardrobes in the bedroom, fixed new windows and doors, and put in place a new staircase. Next job for Dave Stone Design...the orangery!

Best foot forward YOU’LL FIND EXCLUSIVE MEN’S BOOTS, BAGS AND ACCESSORIES FROM LUXURY ENGLISH BRANDS AND MORE AT CHARLES BROOKS. harles Brooks was established in 1972, filling a gap in the footwear market by being one of the earliest retail and repair shops in Sheffield. The master craftsmen’s specialist skills in restoring customers’ battered but much-loved shoes back to their original condition soon won the Fulwood Roadbased workshop recognition. Word of mouth ensured that a faithful band of Charles Brooks’ customers came from all over the region to buy exquisite shoes and to have their footwear restored. The bespoke shoe repairing service went from strength to strength and later expanded into sourcing exclusive men’s boots, bags and accessories from luxury English brands. Today, Charles Brooks is still a prominent shoe seller and bespoke footwear repair business and the one thing that has stayed constant throughout their 48-year history is attention to detail, together with a personal service and knowledgeable advice.

Dine at the Chef’s Table at Brocco Sheffield’s Scandi-style boutique hotel Brocco on the Park has launched a monthly Chef ’s Table evening. Owner Tiina Carr and head chef Leslie Buddington have won multiple awards over the last few years for the relaxed setting and innovative approach to dining in the Brocco Kitchen. But the Chef ’s Table, being held on one Tuesday per month, gives them a chance to break away from Brocco’s signature style and do something completely different. “We’re giving Leslie a free hand to come up with a menu of different dishes that you won’t see on any of our regular menus,” said Tiina. “We started closing the restaurant on Tuesday evening to give our chefs a regular day off but this also gives us the freedom to try something completely different on a monthly basis.” Leslie is also taking the opportunity to introduce a new, innovative style of cooking to his young kitchen brigade

and for the first event in February he had young chef Liam Dickinson working alongside him. With 12 people around the table and a set menu of innovative, delicious dishes including langoustine with celeriac, pea and pancetta; and duck with hoisin sauce, pickled cucumber and sesame cashews, the new venture was greeted with enthusiasm by all who attended. There was also a selection of wines designed to complement the dishes, selected by Tracy Mathieson of Le Bon Vin. The next Chef ’s Table events featuring Leslie Buddington’s off-menu, seasonal and innovative Michelin Plate-winning food are at Brocco Kitchen on Tuesday 17 March and Tuesday 21 April: £45 for five courses with an optional wine flight for £30. Places are limited: call 0114 266 1233 to book’

EATING OUT

Sunday shouting IT’S ALL CHANGE AT THE MAYNARD, WRITES RICHARD ABBEY. AND SOMETHING HAS ALREADY BECOME A FIRM FAVOURITE. he Maynard at Grindleford had only reopened a few weeks ago but it seems word has already got out; we arrived on a Sunday afternoon to find the newly-refurbished restaurant packed. The imposing stone building, which has wonderful views over the valley, has been taken over by seasoned hotelier Rob Hattersley who initiated a £70,000 revamp which has seen other areas of the hotel, namely the bar, ballroom and garden, also given a significant upgrade. The restaurant is a particularly impressive space, enhanced beautifully by those full-length windows which look out on to the garden and Hope Valley beyond. A teal colour palette adds a touch of class which is accentuated by velvety banquette seating, dark wood, glass balustrades and industrial-style lighting. The Maynard still makes for a stunning wedding venue and has 11 bedrooms should you wish to stay over. It is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and the Sunday lunches already look like a firm favourite judging by the amount of people tucking into a traditional roast. The set menu offers one course for £17.95, two for £22.95 and three for £26.95 with a choice of five starters, six mains (including three roasts) and four desserts.

84 www.sheffieldvibe.com

Children’s portions are available at half-price but there is a separate kids menu too with options including beef burger, chicken, schnitzel and the hake fish sticks for £7.95. I’d brought my two along and despite their love of a roast dinner, they both opted for a beef burger and chips and, judging by the quickly cleared plates, definitely made the right choice. My wife and I decided to go the whole hog; I started with a deliciouslylight twice-baked cheddar cheese soufflé, served with Hartington stilton sauce, while across the table she enjoyed into Asian-style fried halibut sticks and king prawns which came with root vegetable crisps and a particularly piquant homemade chilli sauce. A good start. I’d won the argument over who would have the roast so my wife tucked into an excellent slow-braised lamb shank, served with horseradish mashed potatoes, bourguignon sauce, silverskin onions and crispy bacon lardons. If I was disappointed that I didn’t get to try it I needn’t have been as my roast beef sirloin was top drawer. Accompanied by braised red cabbage, maple-glazed root vegetables, duck fat herb-roasted potatoes, cauliflower cheese (which came in a separate hot pan), Yorkshire pudding and proper gravy it was a sight to behold – and tasted every

bit as good. A glass of Ancora montepulciano (£18.95 bottle) was the perfect accompaniment. Now, my daughter is a huge cauliflower cheese fan and couldn’t resist helping herself which ended in her scraping the bowl furiously. Spotting this, Rob kindly brought a portion of her own – small touch but something that was really appreciated. In fact, service throughout was superb. We finished with a heavenly plum and almond crumble and coconut ice cream (for me) and indulgent banana and date sticky toffee pudding (for my wife), whilst the children dove into ice cream sundaes (£1.95) with gusto. An Americano (£2.30) each finished things nicely. It’s still early days for The Maynard but on this evidence, it’s definitely made a promising start.

EATING OUT

Culinary adventure UNUSUAL FLAVOUR COMBINATIONS ENSURE OLIVIA WARSOP’S VISIT TO CUNNINGHAM’S RESTAURANT IS FULL OF SURPRISES. f you’re searching for a uniquely delicious meal in an opulent setting with engaging and knowledgeable staff, then call your mum and ask if you can go round for tea. I’m joking, pick up the phone, call Cunningham’s and reserve a table immediately; I promise you will not be disappointed. Located in the historic Crown Plaza Royal Victoria Hotel, Cunningham’s is old world elegance with contemporary cuisine. Their new menu is a carefully curated masterpiece offering dishes made using the best seasonal ingredients combined in such a way to ensure that each meal is an experience to be savoured. Once we were seated beneath one of the many glittering chandeliers the staff wasted no time in recommending their personal favourites from the menu and highlighting the unique features of each dish. For starters we ordered the poached hen’s egg nesting on a bed of smoked bacon and bean salad and generously drizzled with truffle dressing (£6); this

86 www.sheffieldvibe.com

starter was as visually delightful as it was delicious. The sharpness of the salad with the rich truffle dressing was a perfect pairing topped with crispy pieces of salty bacon. Also ordered were the perfectly tender spiced scallops served with a tasty coriander dhal and tart apple salad (£12), an interesting combination of flavours that proved to be an inspired idea. For mains, I chose a delicately zesty lemon sole served with, and complemented by, slow roasted leeks, spring onions and oyster cream and topped with an oyster beignet (£18). Across the table, my companiopn opted for a succulent sirloin steak in chimichurri sauce served on a skewer, with a red onion and tomato salsa accompanied by chargrilled flat bread (£23). Just as we found with the starters, the unexpected combinations of ingredients used throughout the dishes emphasised the dedication that goes into making each dish something original. This did not change when dessert was served. A light, hot banana soufflé with banana and rum ice cream (£8) was a melt-in-your-mouth treat, and the apple

assiette, consisting of apple and thyme sorbet, apple mousse and a warm apple tart (£8), was as refreshingly sweet as it was pretty to look at. They offer an extensive wine selection with prices starting from £6 a glass. Or, if like us, you’re more of a cocktail drinker they have an extensive cocktail menu starting from £9 per drink, in particular there are some fantastic Whitley Gin cocktails. You may find, again, like us, that you need one after your culinary adventure as you sit back, look admiringly at the gilded walls and plan out what you’ll try from the menu next time.

EATING OUT

Room with a view THE DINING ROOM AT LOSEHILL HOUSE HOTEL IS SOMETHING SPECIAL, WRITES CHRIS WILSON. BUT HOW DOES THE FOOD COMPARE? ining rooms with a view are pretty thin on the ground in these parts but the splendid setting of the Grafen Restaurant at Losehill House Hotel is a joy to behold. Even before you’ve sampled the first forkful, come on a sunny day and it’s hard not to be completely won over by the impressive landscape. The hill in the distance is Win Hill, which features in some of my favourite Derbyshire walks. Losehill House offered a new perspective and, on a day when the sunshine was accompanied by wild winds and occasional downpours, a very comforting one. The landscape was definitely best appreciated from the inside looking out. Sunday lunch was a relaxed affair and the restaurant’s colour scheme, with crisp white tablecloths and spring daffodils, perfectly matched the mood. Delicious, fresh-baked bread is normally a reliable indicator of good things to come, and two varieties, black treacle and plain white, were outstandingly good with chewy crusts, and light springy dough. Owners Paul and Kathryn Roden pride themselves on sourcing the finest local suppliers and the Sunday lunch menu is packed with wide-ranging alternatives. For starters crispy lamb belly was a crunchy, meaty savoury treat with a tangy

92 www.sheffieldvibe.com

pistachio pesto and sharp pickled turnips to cut through the richness of the meat. Goat’s cheese Millie-feuille with candied walnuts and onion marmalade was a sharp, sweet delight with the buttery savoury biscuits crumbling to the touch. All the meat is free range and two traditional Sunday lunches ticked all the boxes. Roast topside of beef was served thickly sliced and pink with every tender morsel worth savouring. Roast breast of free range chicken, served on the bone with perfect crispy skin, was just as impressive. Both plates came to the table piled high with crunchy roast potatoes, rich gravy and a huge, light-as-air Yorkshire pudding. With a dish of seasonal vegetables to share this was very much a classic Sunday lunch. If the main course was classic comfort food at its very best, desserts were a sophisticated affair that really brought our meal to a close in some style. Lemon tart was wonderfully sharp with a light, crisp pastry base. The accompanying lemon curd ice-cream was delightfully tart while raspberry meringue brought just the right amount of contrasting sweetness to the plate. Our second dessert, dark chocolate delice with hazelnut crumb and Baileys ice-cream, was another perfect combination of tastes and textures, a real treat.

There’s plenty of choice on the wine list including one of the best selections ‘by the glass’ that I’ve seen. Small glasses of Kilibinbin Chardonnay (£5.75) and Sixteen Ridges Pinot Noir (£6.25), a vegan wine from Herefordshire, went down a treat. Sunday lunch at Losehill House Hotel is £28.50 for three courses, outstanding value for food of this quality served in such a lovely setting. There’s also a spa on site, so don’t be surprised to stumble across the fluffy robe and flip-flops brigade in reception. If you’re staying for a couple of days the spa will come into its own, and with so much superb scenery on the doorstep it’s a logical base for walkers and cyclists too. But as a stand-alone restaurant within easy reach of Sheffield, Losehill House Hotel should not be overlooked... especially when the sun is shining.

Precious choice IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR CHOICE OF METALS, PA JEWELLERY ARE ON HAND TO HELP. ecent changes in the prices of precious metals have meant that the advice we offer when customers are choosing one has altered. For white metals, where once there was a great deal of choice across a range of price-points, the landscape has altered considerably. Three precious metals with a white or silver colour are generally used for engagement or wedding rings: white gold, platinum and palladium. More information on the differences between these may be found on our websiteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s information page about white metals. Palladium has seen the biggest change: it has many uses outside of jewellery, particularly in catalytic converters, and the demand for these has increased hugely. Over the last two years its value has tripled, making it the most expensive of the precious metals when compared gram-for-gram. Palladium was originally introduced to the market over a decade ago as an affordable alternative to platinum, but it is now more expensive! As gold is also pretty much at an all-time high, platinum is no longer the more expensive luxury it once was. There are several factors that impact upon the exact price of a precious metal item. The different densities of metals is one; this keeps platinum at a much higher cost than its price per gram would suggest. Also, since metals are alloyed to make them more practical to work with and wear, a significant factor can be what they are alloyed with. While in many cases platinum still costs a little

94 www.sheffieldvibe.com

more than 18ct white gold, with our plain wedding bands, the gold is now more expensive. This is down to its high palladium content; a choice which improves its long-term appearance but does now also increase its cost quite significantly. For aesthetic reasons we do suggest choosing the same metal when purchasing a ring to sit next to an existing one, but since platinum is the most practical precious white metal, our recommendation otherwise would be that if your budget allows then it is definitely the option to go for. Following the recent increases in price, we are now offering a half price special offer across our existing stock of palladium rings. As this offer is only available on our current stock, the ring does need to fit you or be sizeable, so choices of style and size are restricted. Please visit our showroom to see the full selection, or if you are looking for a plain wedding band then get in touch to check if we have a particular width/profile in stock. If you have any questions about your choice of metals, please get in touch. Our team of experienced and knowledgeable jewellers will be able to help you.

Specialist care FEAR NOT... ECCLESALL ROAD’S SHEFFIELD DENTAL & SPECIALIST CENTRE PUTS PATIENTS AT EASE. s we grow older we tend to lose those irrational fears that haunted our childhoods. But long after we’ve stopped bursting into tears at the sight of a clown or got used to sleeping in the dark, the prospect of visiting the dentist is still enough to turn many a strong man or woman to a quivering wreck. Perhaps it’s the distant memories of the pain suffered decades ago during childhood, when both the tools and methods of painkilling were a lot less sophisticated, making us scared. Whatever the reason, if you’re a nervous patient the team at Sheffield Dental & Specialist Centre knows exactly what you’re going through, and they know how to put you at ease. “We understand that nobody likes the idea of needles, drills and injections,” says practice manager Jayne Elfleet-

Radford. “But these days anaesthesia is much more sophisticated, making our patients dental experience much more pleasant.. “And for really nervous patients we are one of the few dental practices to offer sedation as an alternative.” Sheffield Dental & Specialist Centre is close to the city centre, easily accessible and has a team of highly-skilled dentists ready to tackle your every need, from straightforward check-ups to cosmetic dentistry to sophisticated procedures such as crowns and implants. This is one of the few dental practices in the region with a full CT scanner, so the dentists will always have the complete lowdown on what each individual patient needs before work begins. There is also an increasing demand for cosmetic dentistry as more people seek the confidence that comes with having

straight teeth and a winning smile. If you feel nature dealt you a bad hand, you don’t have to suffer in silence. From teeth whitening to veneers to Invisalign’s near-invisible braces, the solution is here. New patients are being accepted now and bespoke finance packages are available.

Choose your treatment HOWEVER YOU REACH YOUR HEALTH AND BEAUTY GOALS, G&M HEALTHCARE ARE HERE TO HELP. &M Healthcare is the place to go to look and feel your absolute best. From weight loss to nutritional therapy to non-surgical treatments, here’s a selection of some of the treatments on offer from the team, which is headed by Dr Grace Hula GP who has over ten years’ experience in general practice and aesthetic medicine and six years’ experience in weight loss management.

PDO Thread Lifting Thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure which involves lifting sagging skin from different parts of the face, neck and body using special absorbable threads without making surgical incisions. This results in skin tightening and when applied at a deeper level also results in reduction of excessive fat in specific body areas. PDO thread lifting is used for treating frown lines, smile lines, tear troughs and neck wrinkles. Lifting is indicated for jowl lines, double chins, face contouring, mandibular profiling, buttocks, knees and thigh lifting. It is also used for fat reduction in the abdomen (tummy), underarms or bra line area. One treatment is usually adequate and can last up to 18-24 months. Follow up is after a month and a top up treatment can be applied.

Dermal Fillers

Soprano ICE Laser Hair Removal

Dermal fillers are used to rejuvenate and revitalise the skin through the reduction of deep facial lines. Dermal fillers contain collagen material made of synthetic/natural substance termed as hyaluronic acid, which is injected into the dermis in the form of a soft gel (under the skin) of the client to augment soft tissues. Results are visible instantly.

This is the process of removing unwanted hair by exposure to pulses of laser light that destroy the hair follicles. An intense light (laser) is passed over the skin where the unwanted hair exists and this damages the hair follicle and inhibits future hair growth. Lasers selectively target hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. This innovative laser provides faster treatments, making it preferable for large areas such as the legs and back, is virtually painless and can naturally treat tanned skin. The most common areas of hair removal are the bikini area, underarms, arms, upper lip, legs, neck, and back.

LPG Endermologie A procedure that uses a motorised pulsating flap technology that stimulates a type of skin cells called fibroblasts. The technique gently stimulates dormant cellular activity naturally, painlessly and with no known side effects. The targeted cells then transform the skin from within by stimulating the natural production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid – substances that are essential for skin firmness, tightness, volume and suppleness.

Hydrafacial For instant impact Hydrafacial leaves you looking and feeling terrific after the first treatment with a natural, glowing complexion. It’s a pleasant experience that takes just 30 minutes, and the more you use it the healthier your skin becomes.

Wrinkle relaxing treatments Medisculpt Therapy This revolutionary medically-monitored weight loss programme helps you achieve your desired weight loss at a healthy but consistent rate. G&M Healthcare will oversee your weight loss programme, which includes the nutritional weight loss diet and body sculpting with the LPG Endermologie machine for skin tightening to avoid sagging and loose skin after losing weight and with the Exilis EliteTM or Vanquish Me machines for body fat reduction in stubborn areas like the tummy, thighs or arms.

Forehead creases, frown lines, crow’s feet, mouth and bunny lines can be eased with prescription-only medication like Bocouture or Azzalure. This treatment can also be used for eyebrow lifting, dimpled chins and downturned smiles.

The Choir was established in 1968 and is now a group of around 50 mixed voices, from all walks of life, who enjoy singing. They sing a wide range of music, rehearse on Thursday evenings 7-9pm at St Mary’s Church Centre, Bramall Lane and usually perform three concerts a year together with ad-hoc sings at Christmas. New members are welcome. Regretfully this will be the last concert with Musical Director, Ralph Green, who is stepping down after a long association with the choir He joined in 1974 and became its conductor in 1986. So the search is on for a new Musical Director.

The Showman returns MASTER OF MIND CONTROL AND ILLUSION, DERREN BROWN, ARRIVES AT THE LYCEUM IN JULY. erren Brown usually courts controversy (in a good way) wherever he goes and after a 17-week stint on Broadway, he’s back in the UK with a brand new show. SHOWMAN is still being kept very much under wraps but one thing that we do know is that the audience will be very much at the heart of it. We caught up with the multi-award winning master of mind control and illusion to find out more.

SHOWMAN will be your first new UK stage tour for five years. What can you tell us about it?

don’t struggle to find it or worry too much that things won’t work. And all that makes for better, more mature performance than what it was a decade ago.

Well at the time of answering this, we are still writing and rehearsing it. The nature of my shows is that I never really know how well anything will work until I get an audience involved. So the first week or so we change a huge amount. But the heart of the show is about remembering what’s important. Like how the very things that we find most isolating in life – our fears and difficulties – actually connect us. Framed with what I think will be some extraordinary demonstrations of my voodoo.

strange effects (which spans the spectrum from honesty to deceit in their methods) to communicate those points. I had also grown very comfortable with the material from Underground (and its Broadway cousin Secret) which had truly become second nature. Starting again with a blank slate is exciting and daunting. Facing that first week of previews while we work out exactly what the show is. It’s a lot.

You revealed that SHOWMAN will revolve a lot around the audience. In what way?

If they’re amazed by the tricks and feel better about themselves and a little warmer towards each other, I’m happy.

Finally, SACRIFICE on Netflix was your last TV show. Can we expect to see you back on the small screen any time soon?

This will be your 16th year on tour. Does it get any easier?

I haven’t had a moment for TV! We’ve got a good idea for the next one though, so once I know my plans and have an opportunity, I’m sure we’ll get cracking. At the moment I’m really enjoying concentrating on book-writing and performing.

I always try to write shows that are about the audience. I wasn’t doing it consciously; until my manager pointed out that I was unusual amongst magicians in not making the shows about me. It sounded like a good thing. You do any job better when you don’t make it about you. What particular new challenges will SHOWMAN bring for you?

It’s always a challenge to take ideas I feel are important and honest and use my

What do you hope audiences will take away from the show?

I do actually now have to be more careful to avoid injuries. That’s a new, slightly depressing thing. On the other hand, I know every decent cafe and writing spot around the cities I tour in which makes daytimes a treat. The busier I am at home, the more I appreciate having my daytimes to myself for a few months. And I worry less about the show. I enjoy it all more, it’s in my blood, I

You’re working on your next book. How is it going?

It’s my favourite thing to do. I shall be at it during the days on tour. Don’t want to say much about it yet but it’ll be in the same world as Happy. It won’t be out any time soon though.

EATING OUT

L-R: Pavlos, Maria and Georgia

Home from home THERE’S A LOVELY FAMILY ATMOSPHERE AT MERAKI, WRITES RICHARD ABBEY – AND LEAVE ROOM FOR LEFTOVERS. he area around Abbeydale Picture House has become a real hot-spot in the last few months after a raft of openings. With bars and restaurants serving everything from gin and craft ale to small plates and bao buns, it’s a great alternative to the likes of Ecclesall Road and the city centre. Quietly going about its business is family-run Greek restaurant, Meraki, which is just a stone’s throw away from the old cinema. It’s a homely affair with mum Maria Nikolopoulou sharing kitchen duties with son Pavlos while daughter Georgia runs the front of house. The décor is rustic and cosy with plenty of nods to the restaurant’s roots; think Hellenic maps, dried herbs, plants and imported Greek products lining the walls accompanied by traditional music playing in the background. White tablecloths and vases of tulips on each table added to the look. The menu features many recognisable dishes including moussaka, kleftiko, keftedes and stifado as well as a good wine list, including carafes of Greek

114 www.sheffieldvibe.com

village wine; we shared a small house red (£8), which was very good. It’s worth noting that portion sizes at Meraki are generous – bear this in mind when making your choices. I started with Dakos (£6.90), a Cretan meze of crispy bread topped with chopped tomatoes and onions, capers and crumbled feta cheese. In my mind this was the Greek version of bruschetta and it was, just a lot bigger. The thick slice of bread was piled high with the fresh and tasty topping and was more filling than I expected. Across the table, my wife’s Bouyourdi (£6.90) was a much smaller affair but no less tasty. The baked feta cheese had a lovely chilli kick and the accompanying triangles of pita, of which they were many, were particularly good; salty and moreish. It was a case of roles reversed for mains; my portion of moussaka (£14.90) was served in an individual oven dish with a side salad was just right, the combination of potato, aubergine, mince and béchamel sauce working beautifully. The Pita gyros (£14.90) across the table

was just as impressive. The two pita wraps, filled to bursting with shavings of pork, tomatoes, onions and tzatziki, was more than enough for one, particularly with the addition of chips and salad. My wife ate one and we took the other home for lunch the next day. Dessert was a stretch to say the least but we couldn’t leave without trying Meraki’s baklava (£4.50). Our shared portion was sweet and sticky just as it should be and a fitting end to a delicious (and filling) meal. In one of the up and coming areas of Sheffield, Meraki is worth shouting about.

EATING OUT

Tastes of the sea THERE’S MORE TO SEVEN SEAS THAN FISH ‘N’ CHIPS, WRITES CHARLES BRADSHAW. or over 90 years, a chip shop has occupied the same spot on Bawtry Road in Wickersley. Just nine miles from Sheffield and three miles from Rotherham, Seven Seas is one of the oldest chip shops in England, cooking an extensive range of seafood six days a week. Today, the original shop is modernised and includes an enclosed outdoor seating area, a restaurant on the first floor and a dedicated car park. Ascending the stairs to the restaurant, historical pictures of the shop and local area decorate the stairwell walls. A nautical theme runs throughout the venue with model ships on display in the window bays and porthole-style mirrors on the walls in the restrooms. We were promptly escorted to a corner table when we arrived. Seating consists of upholstered long benches, coupled with comfortable wooden chairs. As we browsed the menu, I had a glass of lemonade and my dining companion had a diet Coke (£1.70 each). In addition to the seafood fayre, the menu features a varied selection of alternative options to fish dishes including burgers, salads and locally sourced gourmet pies. A Senior Citizens Special option and

116 www.sheffieldvibe.com

children’s portions are also available. For starters, I chose Black Tiger King Prawn (£8.95). The large grilled shrimp was presented on a bed of green leaf salad. The meaty chunks were rich and subtly infused with chilli and garlic. Several lemon wedges and a light fruit sauce accompanied the dish. My companion’s Salt and Pepper Squid (£4.75) looked equally appetising. Light and crispy batter enclosed succulent squid pieces which were served with salad garnish and a pot of garlic mayonnaise. On the drive over, I’d already decided to sample Traditional Cod and Chips (£9.45) for my main course, along with a portion of mushy peas (£1.30). Freshly prepared, and piping hot, my flaky cod portion was coated in a satisfyingly crunchy batter. The chunky chips were perfectly fried, encapsulating a fluffy potato interior. Flame Grilled Plaice (£13.95) was ordered by my companion which arrived bearing chargrilled markings, a portion of chips and a side-salad drizzled in balsamic vinegar. The fish was mouthwatering with a sweet, mild and slightly smoky flavour. Lemon wedges and tartare

source also helped enhance the taste. For dessert, I opted for the Mini Cheesecake Selection (£5.25) with vanilla ice cream. Consisting of three different flavoured cheesecakes: Lemon, Chocolate and Strawberry, each sweet was accompanied with a complementary sauce. My companion’s choice was Lemon Sorbet (£4.95), a large, zesty portion contained within a lemon shell to round off the meal. Seven Seas is enthusiastically operated, helping to keep this British traditional food alive. Modern twists and a delightful location certainly make this no ordinary fish and chip restaurant, but definitely worthy of a visit.

So, of course, it’s ideal for the local restaurant world’s biggest and glitziest celebration night! This year’s event looks like being bigger and better than ever. The Westside Restaurant & Bar Awards has grown in size and stature over the years and the versatile nature of The OEC means The Rivelin Suite on the first floor will cater for up to 500 people. So with an exciting venue settled and a date in the diary, the search for next year’s winners is set to intensify. Who will come out on top in 2020? Last year Brocco on the Park won our Restaurant of the Year award for the second year running. Last year was also particularly strong for newcomers with recently opened establishments such as Omega at Abbeydale (Best Newcomer), Chinatown (Best Oriental) and Bank House Hathersage (Best Contemporary) among our category winners.

In recent years our awards have reflected the rapid improvement in standards in gastro-pubs, the growing influence of street food from around the world and an increasingly vibrant independent pub and bar culture. So will any new trends emerge this time around, and who will be our big winners? All will become clear in the next few months as we search out the venues that have truly excelled in the art of delivering delicious food and beverages in a superlative setting over the last year. All our recent award winners have been superb, so expectations are high. Here’s a reminder to all restaurant, hotel, café and pub owners: to make sure your establishment is under consideration for the 2020 Westside Restaurant & Bar Awards, contact publishing manager Sam Warsop at sam.warsop@rmcmedia.co.uk *** We are also delighted to announce that LWC, the UK’s largest independent drinks wholesaler, will be the drinks sponsor for this year’s Westside Restaurant & Bar Awards. Established in 1979, LWC has grown from a small start-up to the fastest growing privately owned drinks company in the UK. With over 9,000 different product lines and similarly over 9,000 on-trade customers, LWC delivers the broadest range and greatest service available in the UK drinks industry.

Nonnas Since it opened in 1996 Nonnas has established an enviable reputation as one of Sheffield’s best-loved Italian restaurants serving authentic flavours of Italy and superb coffee from a team of highly trained and passionate baristas. And now its about to go one better with the introduction of a brand new blend sourced directly from Tuscany. Caffé New York – a coffee bar which originally opened in 1930 in the area’s town of Montecatini – has been brewing its critically acclaimed coffee for nearly 100 years. Nonnas general manager Stefano Buralli happened to go to school with the owner and had the idea to introduce the blend to Ecclesall Road. A Caffé New York team came over to Sheffield to visit Nonnas and then took the management to see the coffee being brewed in Pistola. Maurizio Mori, owner of Nonnas on Ecclsall Road, said: “Quality coffee has always been at the heart of everything we do. I truly believe this new blend will take things up a gear. It’s the most popular blend of coffee in the whole of Tuscany. Our award-winning barista team can’t wait to get their hands on it! We’re all very grateful for Stefano for his idea.” Nonnas will also have the very best coffee machine to serve the new roast. They have spent the past few months working with Cimbali – recognised as a world leader in Italian coffee machines – on a bespoke model of their brand new Cimbali M100 GTA ATTIVA. The state-of-the-art machine will be only the second of its kind to arrive in the UK and is renowned for its blend of tradition and technology. 535-541 Ecclesall Road, Sheffield, S11 8PR www.nonnas.co.uk

EATING OUT

Recipe for a real treat A VISIT TO ASTON HALL HOTEL LINGERS LONG IN THE MEMORY FOR CHRIS WILSON. ou know what’s coming. Some venues may tweak the savoury element – a sausage roll here, a cheese straw there, perhaps even a slice of quiche. But if afternoon tea is on the menu, the element of surprise is pretty much removed from the equation. There’ll be a selection of sandwiches, scones with jam and cream and a few cakes. Put that way and it all sounds a bit routine, perhaps even dull and predictable. But when it’s done right – when the appropriate care is taken over the setting, presentation and – last but not least, the food – then you have a recipe for a real treat, a traditional approach to dining out that has massively increased in popularity over the last few years. When it comes to standing out from the crowd, Aston Hall Hotel certainly has a few advantages. For a start there’s the setting itself. This 18th century former manor house makes an instant impression from the moment you drive beyond the ornate ironwork of the front gates and take the gentle winding road towards a grand building with a bold red brick façade set in 55 acres of gardens and meadowland – even if, like us, your visit coincides with the arrival of an unwanted guest in the form of Storm Dennis.

126 www.sheffieldvibe.com

So we were forced to dash from the car to the front door rather than linger over the luscious scenery, but the entrance hall is similarly striking with its high ceiling, ornate tile floor and grand staircase – you can certainly see why this is one of the region’s best-loved wedding venues. It’s also a lovely setting for a delicious indulgent afternoon tea, whatever the occasion. The Bamford Restaurant is a cosy, contemporary room, perfect for a relaxed experience that combines a special setting with home-cooked comfort. Afternoon tea is served on the classic three-tiered cake stand with simple white crockery and we worked our way from the bottom up, starting with a delicious selection of sandwiches on brown and white bread with generous fillings including ham, cheese savoury, tuna, egg and coronation chicken. These were cut into quarters with the crusts left on. Some people may prefer fingers and crusts off for a more delicate bite, but this slightly more substantial version worked for us. The middle tier contained two homemade scones, one plain and one with currants, with clotted cream and strawberry jam. I have to say the scones, slightly warm from the oven with a

delicate crisp crust and a soft, moist and light filling, were as good as we’ve tasted. The restaurant manager had proudly made us aware that every element of the Aston Hall afternoon tea is made in house, and it’s clear that someone in the kitchen is seriously gifted when it comes to sweet treats. After piling the jam and cream as high as we dared, we paused for a fresh pot of tea, then it was time to tackle a spectacular top tier of chocolate cake, macaroons, orange and almond cake and chocolate mousse. We savoured every decadent mouthful although some sweet treats were wrapped up and became a decadent breakfast treat the next day. But even if you do manage to polish off everything in a single sitting, afternoon tea at Aston Hall Hotel will linger long in the memory.

Locally inspired HUDSON’S KITCHEN SPECIALISE IN BREAKFAST AND BRUNCH WITH A YORKSHIRE TWIST. RACHEL MARTIN STOPPED BY. t’s the most important meal of the day, but where should you go for breakfast in Sheffield? From cosy cafes to greasy spoons and fancy bistros, there are loads of options, each with their unique menu of morning-making dishes. Whether you want a full English or traditional offerings like granola or toasted egg muffins, Hudson’s Kitchen is exactly where you should go. Nestled in the heart of Crosspool, this cosy little café owned by husband and wife Chris and Rosanna Taylor feels a million miles from the bustling city centre and is a master at breakfast, brunch and baked classics, but they do theirs with a clever Yorkshire twist. “Where possible, all our food is made using delicious local produce,” says Chris. “Demand has never been higher and we try to meet that popularity head on by working with neighbouring suppliers as much as possible, so our menu is local at heart. Loaded stacks of American pancakes come topped with seasonal local berry compote, artisan brews come courtesy of Birdhouse Tea Company and even the beloved eggs Benedict is made using irresistibly creamy Our Cow Molly butter.”

128 www.sheffieldvibe.com

As us northern folk like a hefty meal at a fair price, that’s exactly what you’ll get at Hudson’s. There’s no scrimping, with plates piled high – if you go for the traditional breakfast, you’ll be treated to eggs, sausages, beans and bacon, with tomatoes, mushrooms and hash browns on the side and two slices of toast to mop it all up. Oh, and you can be sure of a darn fine sarnie (made with freshly baked sourdough bread) and while you’re there, try out their stonkingly good fruit smoothies and homemade iced tea. If you just want a slice of cake for breakfast, they have plenty of those, too. With vegan and gluten-free options to suit every diet. But if you’ve got a bit more time on your hands, why not sit in and enjoy the laid back atmosphere? We grabbed a seat at one of the lovely little wooden tables and quickly took to admiring the décor – the stylish space is beautifully furnished, with eye-catching artwork adorning the walls and a quirky, industrial-chic feel to the interior. We were just as taken with the menu, which featured a tempting array of sweet and savoury dishes, with a homegrown flavour running through the plates on offer.

For the main attraction, we plumped for the crisp, sweet and lightly toasted goats cheese and onion chutney bagel (£5.95) and eggs royale (£7.50) – a hearty start to the day, combining runny eggs with beautiful bright yolks and a perfect Hollandaise. Elsewhere, golden scrambled eggs and crisp bacon – for a salty balance – balanced on light and airy pancakes came topped with lashings of maple syrup (£6.45). Housed in the former hardware unit on Sandygate Road, this not-so-hidden gem is hoping to help put S10 on the map and will soon be offering a new spring-summer menu, which is set to include a smorgasbord of breakfast and brunch classics – with a Hudson’s twist.

L-R: Maureen Shimeld and Verity Kent

Don’t miss out HOME-COOKED FOOD WITH LOCALLY-SOURCED PRODUCTS – CAROLYN WAUDBY POPPED INTO THE FERNDALE COFFEE SHOP FOR A TASTE OF TRADITION. have to admit this was my first visit to the Ferndale Coffee Shop, although I had heard of it by repute. Until recently, I lived on the north-west side of Sheffield and it simply wasn’t on my usual trails. I was clearly missing out – think hearty food made from local ingredients, delicious cakes and good old Fish and Chips on Fridays. Garden centres are wonderful labyrinths and Ferndale is no exception – however we were guided to the café by the sound of lively chatter. Despite being a Tuesday it was busy as anything. Café manager Deborah Gould reminded me with a chuckle it was British Pie Week. And pies are one of the dishes Ferndale excels in. My partner is a pie fan on any day of the week so that was his meal sorted – Meat and Potato filling with chips and mushy peas (£8.95). I went for mushroom quiche – one of a range of quiche options on offer – with full salad (£7-8.95). The pie quickly vanished – the plate almost ‘licked’ bare, with a thumbs up for everything. “A proper pie with great pastry” (traditional hot water suet method, it turns out), chunks of steak so tender they “fell to bits” and thick gravy. And the mushy peas had texture, he added.

130 www.sheffieldvibe.com

My quiche was tastily cheesy but light, and although I’m not usually a fan of coleslaw, I enjoyed the crunchiness of this thick-cut home-made version. We just about had room for desserts – raspberry and almond slice and fruit crumble tart, both served warm with custard. The latter came thick and creamy in little jugs. The filling in my slice comprised apple and strawberry – an unusual but refreshing combination. Oh, and we had Taylor’s of Harrogate Earl Grey and Green Tea to accompany them. Ferndale has an impressive range of both traditional and exotic cakes – from mattress thick Victoria sponges to coconut cake and, to my surprise, even Viennese Sacher Torte, all made on the premises. Then there are classic English pastries such as custard tart. But back to the mains. You can feast on a traditional beef roast with Yorkshire pudding and vegetables on Sundays (£9.25). The Friday fish is fried in Ferndale’s own tempura batter and where possible ingredients are locally sourced and include nearby Moss Valley and Mainstream meats, Howes seafood and Our Cow Molly ice cream. And dishes are seasonal which means the menu changes.

After starting small, the coffee shop has been running for more than 30 years and occupies a very large and light modern space with windows looking onto the outdoor garden centre displays. Its popularity is clearly down to the quality of its home-cooked food – and, as my dining companion pointed out, although you order at the counter, it’s brought to the table “piping hot”. If lunch isn’t what you’re after you can enjoy the English tradition of afternoon tea with sandwiches, mini-scones, clotted cream and preserve (£15), upgrading it with prosecco or wine if you wish. Special diets are well catered for too. So now we’ve discovered Ferndale, we’ll definitely be making a detour to try some of those other classic dishes.

Eggs-pand your mind FROM LEGENDARY QUESTS TO STORIES OF CHOCOLATE, THERE’S LOTS TO DO IN YORKSHIRE THIS EASTER, WRITES RACHEL MARTIN. affodils, bright copper-foiled chocolate and woollen mittens being ceremoniously shoved back in the drawer – these are a few of the many reasons to look forward to the Easter holidays. It is the time of year that we finally emerge from the hibernation of winter and start to think about getting active outside. It’s also the first school holiday of the year when the days are a little longer. On Easter Sunday in Sheffield, for instance, sunrise is set for 6.44am and sunset at 7.26pm, giving way to almost 13 hours of light to spend outdoors. That’s 13 hours to dash down heather-strewn hills, cycle along fresh-leafed trails, whizz down zip lines or – should the weather still be dubious – enjoy some of the region’s indoor attractions that are pulling off their dust sheets and opening their doors. Feeling underprepared? We’ve got you covered with our guide to Easter activities across Yorkshire, including legendary quests, egg-stravagant culinary tours and fantasy-filled days out to keep everyone entertained.

Who’s in the frame? WORLD SNOOKER TAKES CENTRE STAGE IN SHEFFIELD ONCE AGAIN. TAKE YOUR CUE FROM BETFRED TV’S MATT HULMES, WHO LOOKS AT THE ONES TO WATCH. ith the Betfred Snooker World Championship getting underway this month, punters are looking to place their faith in their favoured cueist in the annual quest for glory in Sheffield, as 16 days of attrition lie in store for the two eventual finalists. Here, Betfred TV’s Matt Hulmes takes some time to mull over a handful of the hopefuls set to battle on the prestigious Crucible baize and who could be chalking up a win come the final pot on 4 May. “Not many cities are fortunate enough to host a World Championship sport and plenty of those that do only enjoy it for a single year before the circus moves on. Not in the Steel City. We are lucky enough to welcome back elite sportsmen year after year in the form of the Betfred World Snooker Championship at Tudor Square’s famous Crucible Theatre. “Sheffield has produced and developed many sporting superstars. It has given us triple World Heptathlete Champion and Olympic Gold medallist Jessica EnnisHill, World Cruiserweight Champion Johnny Nelson, World Welterweight superstar Kell Brook and not forgetting World Cup winning goalkeeper Gordon Banks. Sebastian Coe also trained here from a young age, alongside golfers Matt Fitzpatrick and former Masters hero Danny Willett, inaugural one-millionpound footballer Trevor Francis, England’s current Cricket captain Joe Root and many, many more. It is a hotbed of talent. It always has been and hopefully it will continue to be so. Anthony Joshua has also made Sheffield home to a number of pre-fight base camps in recent years. “Come spring, the best cuesmiths in the world descend on South Yorkshire in an attempt to claim snooker’s ultimate prize. It was in 1977 that the Snooker World Championship arrived in Sheffield following years of globetrotting and here it has remained ever since. “The intimate setting of this 980-seat arena is a major factor in the game settling in the Steel City. Sport is supposed to played out in front of tens

of thousands of fans across huge arenas – it shouldn’t work in a small theatre.

Puppy love WHAT MAKES SOMEONE GIVE UP THEIR TIME, ENERGY – AND A NICE CLEAN HOUSE – TO BRING UP A SUPPORT DOG PUPPY? HELEN FRITH AND LAURA SMYTH LIFT THE LID ON THE JOYS AND FRUSTRATIONS OF BEING A PUPPY SOCIALISER FOR SHEFFIELD-BASED CHARITY SUPPORT DOGS – AND THE PERILS OF LEAVING YOUR SOCKS ON THE FLOOR.

Lawson came to Helen when he was three months old

or the past year Helen Frith and Laura Smyth, both from Sheffield, have willingly given up most of their spare time to giving two Support Dogs’ puppies – fox-red Labrador Lawson and black Labrador/ Retriever cross Ginny – the very best start in life. When they are 15 months old, the pups will bid farewell to their devoted carers and start their journey to becoming fullytrained, professional service dogs, transforming the lives of people with epilepsy, autism and for disability. But at the moment they’re still, well puppies. Messy, cheeky, sometimes destructive but always lovable puppies.

138 www.sheffieldvibe.com

So why do it? Especially when just as they start to become well-behaved young dogs, they move on. Both Helen and Laura had similar reasons for becoming puppy socialisers. They had both recently lost their own pet dogs, and while they didn’t feel ready for the commitment of another pet, they missed having canine company in the house. “I couldn’t bear a house without a dog,” says Helen. “My husband was due to take retirement in about a year’s time, and after that we had plans to do things, so being a puppy socialiser for that time fitted in perfectly. I’d get a dog for a year and I’d also be helping someone else to

have a trained assistance dog in the longer term – everything just clicked. “We got Lawson when he was three months old. I thought he was gorgeous and it was so lovely to have a dog in the house again.” Laura’s own circumstances were also ideal for her to become a puppy socialiser. “I’d been a stay-at-home mum for a few years and my little girl Erin was just starting nursery, so life was opening up a bit, and I was itching to do something,” she says. “I found out about Support Dogs and came along to an information day, and that was that. We have a great time with Ginny and she has become part of the family.”

CHARITY

While both women absolutely adore their canine charges they admit it can be hard work. “It’s harder than I thought at first, especially with me having a toddler to look after as well,” says Laura. “We’d never had a puppy before and the first weeks were very tough – puppies can be so demanding and destructive. Socks are her thing, and we’ve lost so many…” Helen’s experience has been similar. “It’s a bit like having a toddler. You can never sit down, and you have to have eyes in the back of your head,” she says. “He’s always got something in his mouth!” But for both Helen and Laura, it soon got better and the upsides vastly outweigh the downsides. “I just love having Lawson in the house,” says Helen. ”He has such a lovely personality and is great company to have around. “I also really enjoy meeting the other puppy socialisers – I have made some lovely friends and we go for walks together, which has been an added, unexpected bonus.” Adds Laura: “I really enjoy the training side of things, and the social side of being a puppy socialiser. You can feel a bit isolated at times. And it’s nice to share the ups and downs with the others. It’s different to having a pet dog – you feel more responsible.” All Support Dogs’ puppy socialisers attend six weeks of weekly classes with their pups, then monthly workshops to learn basic obedience, and by the end of their tenure the pups should be at a level of well-trained pet. Which brings us to the potentially difficult topic of having to say goodbye

Ginny became part of Laura’s family

to the puppies after 12 months of bonding, love and cuddles. But both women are absolutely clear on the subject – it will be painful but worth it. “From day one I never thought of Lawson as my dog,” says Helen. “He is on loan. It’s like my children – I wouldn’t expect them to stay at home when they grow up. He will have had a fantastic childhood, and then he will go off and work for a living. That’s been my philosophy from the start.” Laura concurs. “Whenever you welcome an animal into your life, you know that at some point you will have to face the pain of saying goodbye. The difference is, with puppy socialising, you know when that day will be from the start. We accept that that’s how it is and just concentrate on enjoying every day that we get to spend with her. I know that Ginny will never forget us, but I also know she will move on quickly and love

being with her permanent family just as much. “We had a few negative comments from family and friends when we got Ginny along the lines of ‘how could you take the puppy away from Erin?’ But it’s been brilliant. We’ve had loads of conversations with her about disabilities and about the fact that someone is going to need Ginny, and that’s more important than us loving her and wanting her; we are doing this for someone else.” She adds: “When I look at the Support Dogs’ videos on YouTube and how the dogs are helping people, how could we possibly keep her? Also, going to the charity’s doggy graduation ceremony was great. It reminds you why you are doing it. It was a real boost.” Both feel very proud of their respective pups, and their future careers as professional service dogs. “I would be disappointed if Lawson didn’t make it as a Support Dog,” says Helen. “I’ve put so much effort in. Being a puppy socialiser is such a fabulous thing to do. I’m already extremely proud of him.” Adds Laura: “I would definitely encourage other people to become puppy socialisers. And don’t dismiss it because you think it will be hard. It’s so rewarding.” Support Dogs is a national charity based in Sheffield, which provides and trains assistance dogs for people with autism, epilepsy, and physical disability.

Gripple’s first female director

Engineers Joe Thickett and Emma Parkin in front of the seven-axis Starrag Bumotec S-191 mill-turn centre used to micro-machine the miniature portraits

The art of micro-machining The Queen’s head has been beautifully micro-machined onto a piece of brass by engineers at the AMRC using cutting tools so small they are barely visible to the naked eye. The machined portrait of Her Majesty, measuring just 1.4mm, is so small that the intricate detail can only be seen clearly through a powerful microscope. It is a major achievement for University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) engineers Emma Parkin and Joe Thickett who wanted to create the tiny artwork to show off the AMRC Machining Group’s capabilities with the goal of bolstering industry knowledge on micro-machining to help UK firms win business. The face was created using a seven-axis Starrag Bumotec S-191 millturn centre, an industry leading high-accuracy machine tool platform. Emma and Joe’s deep understanding of the machine’s behaviour allowed them to produce four remarkably detailed Queen’s heads – with diameters of 11.2mm, 7mm, 2.8mm and 1.4mm – on a single circular piece of brass measuring 25mm. They used micro-end mill cutting tools supplied by Sandvik Coromant to achieve the basic shape of the design before switching to tiny but incredibly precise ball-nose cutters – the smallest of which measures just 0.2mm – to carry out the detailed contouring of the Queen’s face. Emma said: “We chose the Queen as a portrait because we wanted to do something similar to a coin as it is relatable, people generally know the size of a coin; so to be able to scale it down in size yet still keep the Queen’s face on there is the ‘wow’ factor. “We wanted to show our partners and wider industry what is achievable; that we can work to an accuracy of 0.001 mm on work pieces as small as 1.5 mm and make use of these tiny cutters whilst still maintaining detail.”

Katrina Ritchie, who has spent most of her 20 years with Gripple, embedding the ‘Gripple Spirit’ in staff at the Sheffield-based employee-owned manufacturer of the world-beating wire joiner, has been appointed the company’s first female director. Furthermore, Katrina has been invited to join a wide-ranging government commission and also a nationwide manufacturing judging panel. As Gripple’s people and culture director with a team of 11 – seven in the UK and four others in Europe and the USA, Katrina is now a commissioner of the Workplace Training and Development Commission, set up recently by British Chambers of Commerce (BCC). Last year the BCC voted Gripple as the UK’s best employer. The new commission’s purpose is to assess the current state of the UK’s workplace training and development in all business areas and to develop recommendations for the government’s policy makers. After making the top 20 in The Manufacturer Top 100 list of influencers from the engineering and manufacturer sectors last year Katrina has been invited to join the judging panel in this year’s project. The Manufacturer Top 100 project showcases the most dynamic leaders, young pioneers and unsung heroes in the UK, all of whom have been nominated by their peers. Katrina will also be part of the UK’s largest showcase for manufacturing, the Digital Manufacturing 2020 launched at the House of Lords. Katrina said: “Becoming a director is undoubtedly a tremendous opportunity for me personally, but what excites me most is the central role the People and Culture team has and will play in Gripple’s future. My focus will be to drive the people agenda globally, to embed the ‘Gripple Spirit’ and to develop our leaders to lead the Gripple way.”

Ton up for Skills Bank Sheffield City Region’s Skills Bank is celebrating after the 100th business signed up for the programme.

Westbourne pupils go to the West Side with a stage legend

Ashoka among UK’s finest Readers of The Times and The Sunday Times now know what Westside readers have been aware of for decades... Ashoka on Ecclesall Road, Sheffield is hard to beat for a ‘reyt good curreh.’ Sheffield’s oldest Indian restaurant, dating back to 1967, has been named as one of the top 30 restaurants for a curry in Britain by the national newspaper, which was hugely impressed by the recent makeover which was inspired by the Irani cafes of Mumbai, with displays of tiffin tins, a black-and white tiled floor and simple wooden tables. Ashoka was rated number six in the country, with menu favourites such as the Rajasthani lamb curry, inspired by the ones served in railway refreshment rooms during the Raj era, singled out for particular praise.

Three AA Rosettes for The Cavendish Local landmark hotel, The Cavendish at Baslow, is celebrating its Gallery Restaurant being awarded three AA Rosettes by The AA Hotel and Hospitality Services in its latest round of awards. Three AA rosette status is a benchmark of culinary excellence, making the establishment of national interest beyond its immediate locale. Along with the highest ratings of four and five rosettes, it is awarded to restaurants at only two points during the year, January and September. The recently refurbished Gallery at The Cavendish is one of just three hotel restaurants in Derbyshire to hold this accolade, recognised as a level of excellence for not just the food, but intuitive service along with an outstanding selection of wines. For head chef of The Gallery Restaurant, Adam Harper, this is praise indeed as he only joined the team one year ago. During his first year at the helm, he has also been placed as ‘National Finalist’ in the prestigious Roux Scholarship, as well as having influenced the hotel’s rise to red star status and now elevating The Gallery from its two AA rosette status, which it had held consistently since 2006. As well as offering an à la carte and tasting menu, plus a dedicated menu for vegetarian and vegans, The Gallery is renowned for its Kitchen’s Table. Established over 20 years ago, and among the first of its kind. www.cavendishbaslow.co.uk 142 www.sheffieldvibe.com

And taking the leads in this new production are Westbourne pupils Declan Saxton and Rosie Molyneux, playing ill-fated young lovers Tony and Maria. Inspired by Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and with a plot transposed from Renaissance Verona to 1950s New York and the tough world of warring street gangs, West Side Story features a long line of hits including Maria, Something’s Coming, Somewhere, America, I Feel Pretty, One Hand On Heart and Tonight. The production, which is open to members of the public, will take to the stage at Sheffield’s Montgomery Theatre on 19 & 20 March.

PROMOTION

Can financial claims be made after divorce? DIVORCE – WHAT DOES IT ACTUALLY DISSOLVE? THE MARRIAGE BUT NOT THE MONEY CLAIMS! BY BRADIE PELL, PARTNER AND HEAD OF GRAYSONS’ FAMILY DEPARTMENT. hen couples commence divorce proceedings, they often have their sights set on achieving decree absolute, as this is what dissolves the marriage and makes someone single. However, decree absolute does not place a bar on financial claims being made against either former spouse. This means that, even after the marriage has been dissolved, financial claims against assets such as income, pensions, property, business etc. can still be made. That is, of course, unless you fall into the re-marriage trap, which can affect some claims. Different rules upon remarriage can apply to the petitioner and respondent. The petitioner must either have ticked the “boxes” in the divorce petition or submitted ‘form A’ separately before re-marriage. The respondent must have submitted ‘form A’ before remarriage. If not, according to the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973, this means that if either party remarries after decree absolute, but before dealing with financial claims, that party cannot apply for a financial provision order, for example maintenance or lump sum payment, or property adjustment order. However, they may still be able to apply for a pension sharing order. You should always seek legal advice before remarrying if you don’t have a financial consent order in place that is approved by the court. The only way to finalise financial claims is to enter into a clean break, approved by the court (otherwise known

as a consent order), which is a legally binding. Verbal agreement is not enough to eliminate financial claims after divorce. It’s a common misconception that if spouses reach a verbal agreement on finances, it is sufficient to protect them in the future. It isn’t – and this is happening more and more frequently. It seems that people simply don’t appreciate that obtaining decree absolute is not necessarily the end of matters. The fact you verbally agreed who gets what does not prevent either spouse from reneging on that agreement. For example, if you agree, without a legally binding document, to transfer a jointly owned property from joint names into one person’s sole name for a specific amount and then, either that person does not co-operate or they want more money afterwards, there is nothing to either compel the person to co-operate with the transfer or stop them pursuing the other spouse for more money in the future. If this happened, you could find yourself in expensive litigation trying to resolve the dispute.

Full consideration should be given to parties’ financial claims at the start of the separation. There should be full disclosure of each other’s assets and a fully informed decision made and drawn up into a consent order. That way, there is clarity for everyone concerned. Whilst this may not necessarily be the cheapest option, it is at least the option that can provide some certainty if it is prepared properly. You can find out more about financial matters relating to divorce and separation on our web pages at www.graysons.co.uk/ family/divorce-and-finances/ If you wish to speak to a solicitor regarding any divorce or family related issue, please contact us to arrange a free initial consultation in which we can discuss your options.

TESTIMONIALS: “I have always been delighted to be able to recommend Acclaimed Family Law Ltd (AFL) to our clients. Having dealt with you personally for over 10 years now, I have always been very happy with the client outcomes. I know that our clients who have benefitted from your help have always been pleased with the professional manner in which you and your team have managed their matrimonial legal requirements.

Director Michelle Cooper winner of the Inspirational Women of Sheffield Entrepreneurship Award 2020

This area of the law is complex in respect of how financial settlements need to be considered. Unfortunately some lawyers have neglected the issues arising from complex pensions and financial cases. All of the team at AFL are able to add an extra dimension to the advice where needed and are never frightened to bring in third party experts.”

Honouring women across the city who have excelled in their field, Director Michelle Cooper was delighted to pick up the Inspirational Women of Sheffield 2020 Award for Entrepreneurship at a recent ceremony held at Kenwood Hall, Sheffield on International Women’s Day.

Steve Dilks, ACII APFS Chartered Financial Planner "I was concerned that due to the long length of my marriage and relative complexity of our finances, which combined personal and business assets on both sides, that I needed a solicitor with some experience of understanding and untangling personal and small business finance.

Michelle was very understanding and listened carefully to me as I explained my situation, she explained my options to me in a very clear way and explained what would happen depending on which option I chose. She came across straightaway as someone who had great knowledge of her job. I haven’t had any previous experience on getting divorced (thankfully) but the solicitor that my ex used was very slow and I got the impression it was just a job to them which made me so grateful that I had a firm Having built up an enviable reputation as one of the that cared at what was a very emotional and stressful leading family law solicitors in Sheffield, Michelle time for me.

Mr L departments dealt with clients. “I was genuinely surprised but immensely proud when my name was announced as the winner. Being surrounded by such inspirational, bright, determined women – each one a winner in their own right, the competition was strong but that reflected the work and contribution women make to Sheffield of which I am proud to be part of.”

Passionate about delivering an affordable premier client centred service (in a very different way to many high street firms), Michelle believes that getting the right advice "I was referred to Michelle by someone in the court and support from the outset makes a huge difference. With a strong team behind her, all service. My husband pushed the case to a Final Acclaimed Family Law solicitors are experts in their own field which include finances on Contested Hearing and he wanted more than divorce/separation and children cases and offer a first free ½ hour consultation which Michelle advised me was reasonable. I was very enables you to control the situation rather than the situation controlling you. Many of our clients comment on our straightforward advice, approachable staff and unrivalled out of hours’ worried but Michelle was quietly reassuring and service, with support from Office Manager, Jill Raine taking calls in the evenings and at the outcome was exactly as Michelle had weekends, who understands that clients sometimes require immediate advice and reassurance predicted. I can’t thank Michelle enough for “Just to be able to speak to a human voice before the office opens again can often be calming her hard work and expertise." Mrs P in a very stressful situation.” It is our exceptional level of client satisfaction, achieved by obtaining the right outcome along with emotional support for our clients which Michelle believes is the key to success. This is evident from Michelle’s top client rating in the national Telegraph and The Times Vouched For list and client testimonials. With the firm going from strength to strength Michelle is looking to the future and is definitely not ready to rest on her laurels yet, “We are always listening to our clients and there for them. Unless we have satisfied clients we do not have a business and we never forget that.“

The better just got better The S90 and V90 models from Volvo are already great cars in terms of overall design, reliability, safety and how they feel to drive. Now, though, Volvo has tweaked the recipe somewhat to improve the S90 and V90 in all areas. Headlines include updated design for S90 saloon and V90 estate, enhanced Bowers & Wilkins sound system, advanced new interior air-filtration system, 48-volt mild-hybrid powertrains now available in all Volvo models, leather-free upholstery more widely available and wireless charging offered in both models. The mild hybrid system on offer gives drivers up to 15 per cent fuel savings and emission reductions in real-world driving. The brake-by-wire system interacts with the energy recovery system and reduces fuel consumption and emissions by recovering kinetic energy under braking.

Great alternative

Modern luxury

Speedy SUV

The traditional five-door hatchback has always been the staple for UK family motoring. The Hyundai i30 has been a great alternative to the usual offerings from VW, Ford and Vauxhall. Now, Hyundai has updated the i30 meaning it is once again back to the pinnacle of traditional family motoring. On the outside, the i30 has a more aggressive wider looking stance, slimmer headlights, LED lamps and new 16 and 17inch wheels. Engines available include 118 hp 1.0-litre petrol unit which can be specified either on its own or with a 48V hybrid power system, a 134hp 1.6-litre diesel with the 48V hybrid system and a 158hp 1.5-litre petrol which comes standard with the same 48V mild hybrid technology.

With its French styling cues and a unique chassis architecture, the DS9 – designed to take on the likes of the 5Series and E-Class – provides excellent fashionista looks on the road with exceptional space for rear seat passengers. At first, the DS9 will be offered with a new E-TENSE plug-in hybrid powertrain comprising a PureTech turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor combined to deploy 225hp and capable of travelling between 25 and 31 miles on electricity alone. As with all large premium saloon cars, the DS9 will not only be luxurious but there will be a host of modern technology on offer to make your drive safer and more entertaining.

If the Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG does not float your boat then good news, the SUV variant is on its way. Say hello to the Mercedes-AMG GLA 45 S 4Matic. The GLA 45 was always a great choice for customers who wanted an extremely quick performance car, family practicality with hot hatch handling characteristics. This second generation of the GLA 45 is no different. With the world’s most powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engine, this 421hp 2.0-litre powerhouse will achieve performance figures of 4.3 seconds to 62mph from a standstill and a top speed of 270km/h. An eight-speed automatic with F1-style paddle shifters are the only transmission on offer. Due to go on sale in April with first deliveries expected in the summer. www.sheffieldvibe.com 159

Autohaus Dolby

Hit the road PLANNING A LONG JOURNEY THIS SPRING? MAKE SURE YOUR CAR IS IN TIP-TOP CONDITION WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM THESE LOCAL GARAGES.

Whether you’ve chosen your car based on your lifestyle, or perhaps because you trust a particular make or model, you’ll know the importance of finding a garage that fully understands and uses the correct equipment for your vehicle. If you drive a Volkswagen, Audi, Seat or Skoda, help is at hand. Autohaus Dolby only work on Volkswagen group cars and vans, providing the sort of brand-specific knowledge you’d expect from a franchised dealer, only at independent prices. Autohaus Dolby made the move from Century Street to their new premises on Barleywood Road last year, investing heavily both financially and in hard work to ensure they’re able to continue providing excellent service for their customers. “We put a huge amount of effort into making our customers comfortable,” says Matt. “Customer service and creating more positive and personal relationships with our customers is just as important to us as the manual work we do. They’re not isolated from the person who works on their vehicle so they can really get a good understanding of what goes into keeping it in great shape.” Autohaus Dolby use Volkswagen’s own service schedule, and even the tools they use are specially designed for Volkswagen group vehicles. “All modern cars need modern equipment and we are always up to date in this department.” www.autohausdolby.co.uk

Eric Stead A Sheffield-based, family-run car dealership is celebrating after being crowned as the best in the UK. The Eric Stead MG team attended the annual MG Dealer Conference in London alongside 102 other dealers and was crowned Rhodium Aftersales Dealer of the Year. The dealership was crowned winners due to its high-quality levels of customer service time and time again. Simon Stead, former speedway rider and joint team manager of the Great Britain speedway team, was on hand to accept the award at St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel on behalf of his family and the team at the dealership. Simon said: “To pick up yet another prestigious award from MG, against some majorly tough competition is testament to the dedicated, hardworking and approachable team we have at Eric Stead. “We have been in the industry since 1964 offering both new and used vehicles and from that day to this, we have built up a reputation for extraordinary customer care and service, which has formed the foundation of the business. As a family run, independent dealership – without our loyal customer base we wouldn’t be able to carry on doing what we love – thank you.” This latest accolade comes after the dealership won two awards last year as a runner-up in the top dealership category and for having the best service manager in the UK in Paul Carr. www.ericstead.co.uk

The ‘go to guys’ NEWHALL BMW PROVIDE A REALISTIC AND RELIABLE ALTERNATIVE TO MAIN DEALER PRICES. stablished in 2002, Newhall provides specialist facilities for BMW owners and aficionados across Sheffield and the surrounding areas. Headed up by Sean Cooke, who has been employed in the trade since leaving school in 1986, the team of expert mechanics and BMW enthusiasts know their way around a vehicle or two - with 20 years of Sean’s three-decade spanning career spent working for the motoring giant.

Newhall recognise that BMW owners need a realistic and reliable alternative to the “often excessive” prices charged for servicing, maintenance and repairs by the main dealer network. That’s why with it is possible to have your BMW or new Mini serviced and maintained with the all the care and attention it deserves, but at a fraction of the cost. While vehicles still under manufacturer’s warranty are fitted with genuine dealership-accredited parts.

This approach, combined with secondto-none customer service has meant that Sean and his team have been able to establish themselves as not only great value for money, but as the “go to guys” when looking for experts in BMW maintenance. “We can repair, service and maintain your vehicle using parts of your own choice and lubricants as specified by BMW and all work is undertaken to your requirements and fully guaranteed,” says Sean. “As new BMW models don’t come with service books, we update the online and electronic history ourselves during the service and it can be viewed on the vehicles I-Drive display, keeping a record that is quick and easy to access.” Call 0114 242 1318 or visit newhallsheffield.com to find out more.
