From the EDITOR
Welcome to Look Local in February! We are delighted to bring you our first magazine of this New Year, and wish you all the very best for a fabulous 2018! We have been making plans for the year ahead, and having recently added to our collection another magazine, The Ashtead & Leatherhead Local, there is certainly lots that needs doing around here, so our first job was to find an extra pair of hands to help out. As luck would have it, fate worked in our favour and as a result, I am delighted to welcome Michelle Hudspith to our Look Local team. I’m very sure she will be a great asset to Look Local and I am very much looking forward to working with her over the coming months. We have plenty more to share with you in this issue. You may remember that in the past we have covered the amazing work of Mr Phil Hawkins. Having been a teacher in the UK for some 20 years, he followed his heart in 2005 and took a sabbatical from his UK teaching job at the near-by Heathside School, Weybridge. Phil headed to Brazil to work; having seen how Brazil’s education system was in crisis, he wanted to help, so he set up a charity, ran workshops and guided many staff in many schools to a better way of teaching. Since then, his work and travels have taken him to many places. We hear about his latest venture which finds him in Lebanon. Along with a dear friend of mine, Rachael Underwood, they have together given hope and education to some very deserving children. It is with absolute pleasure that we present a Look Local exclusive feature, written by Phil, about the invaluable work they are undertaking. In addition to this, we have news from the nearby Leatherhead Theatre about a selection of great productions taking place there over the coming months, and of course, all our regular features too… Happy Valentine’s Day for 14th!

ASK BRUCE PUPPY SOCIALISATION
At this time of year, many people who’ve received puppies over the festive period ask me for tips on how best to look after them. My first comment is make sure you’re aware of the huge responsibility a dog is. As the excellent Dogs Trust slogan goes, they are for life, not just for Christmas. Aside from meeting their essential needs, such as sustenance, shelter and medical care, puppy socialisation should feature very high on the list. This is the process whereby a puppy learns life skills on how to behave and be sociable. Puppy socialisation begins from the day they are born. For the first 6-8 weeks, their mother and siblings will teach them the basics. But once they ‘leave home’ it’s very much down to you, the owner. At Bruce’s Doggy Day Care, we take on puppies from 11 weeks old. They have their own Puppy Nursery where we guide them through their all-important early life. Mixing and interacting with other dogs of similar age is essential, but they mustn’t over-exercise, as their bodies are still developing. Providing comfy beds and quiet areas means they can rest when they need to. While they love to play, they instinctively know when they’ve had enough and need to chill out. Puppies also need more food more frequently than adult dogs. Several smaller meals a day will ensure they have all the nutrition required to develop and grow. And don’t forget lots of human interaction, as this teaches them you are leaders of their pack. Bruce Casalis is director & founder of Bruce’s Doggy Day Care, a multi-award winning business in Esher. Do you have any dog training or canine behavioural questions which you would like to ask Bruce? Send your questions to :-

It’s time to rise above the excuses. Step outside your comfort zone. And make the shift from “I can’t” to “I will.” Because if you want results, you’ve got to work hard for them. Leave whatever is holding you back outside class and master athletic training drills, cardio conditioning, and strength training to reach your personal best, no matter where you’re starting from.

build refugee pre-school LOCAL RESIDENTS
MOUNTAINS OF LEBANON NOW HAS A BRAND NEW PRE-SCHOOL, GIVING QUALITY CARE TO 40 SYRIAN REFUGEE CHILDREN. High in the mountains of Lebanon, a local pastor was caring for a vulnerable and needy community. He had already opened a monthly health clinic staffed by volunteer doctors and nurses, where patients would often walk for 3 hours to wait in line to be seen. The area had experienced an increase in Syrian refugees and the community was anxious about local services. Education, or lack of it, was a major concern. One day, a Syrian family approached the pastor. They had 5 young children but no school. They were desperate to see their family receive an education. “Would you open a school in your home?” they asked. Their children had never been to school. The pastor and his wife prayed about it and opened up their home, using the resources they had, with a team of volunteers who were not trained teachers. They were trying their best in a tough
environment and wanted help to set up the school. Phil Hawkins and family returned in 2016 after a six-year stay in Brazil with Aprender, Bookham’s very own international education charity. Working with a local Brazilian education institute, Phil and local colleague Josebene constructed a new, innovative school improvement model that focuses on development of character strengths and relevant knowledge. Its aim is to help education organisations in developing countries give children an extra boost to their studies. Following successful results, the work branched out into Lebanon, aiding schools for refugees. Could their Latin American experience of cross-cultural education development help in this new context? Rachael Underwood, Aprender’s Early Years Consultant, and Phil Hawkins visited the school
in the Lebanese mountains in May 2017 and were struck by the potential they saw. The building had a good space, a great outdoor area, and, most importantly, folk that had a willingness to grab opportunities to reach their community and learn. The pastor explained the need and his dream to open a pre-school serving Syrian refugees. Rachael and Phil met on their return to the UK to dream and plan. Could they involve a local pre-school from Bookham? They approached Rainbow Play Group who kindly agreed to partner with them and they were soon in, filming the wonderful learning environment and lots of adult-child interactions which they could use in their training materials. They began to construct a new training sequence to help create not just a normal pre-school, but one that would be high quality, and specifically benefit the large numbers of traumatised children in the neighbourhood. As they talked, they felt a clear sense that not only did it need to be great, but it had to be replicable. Could they get across the essential early years DNA in a way that the local educators owned, valued and felt empowered to teach others? Through careful liaison with the pastor and the pre-school director, Rachael proposed three lots of three-day training across a 6 month period with evaluation and support as a foundational promise. As plans gathered pace, local friends and supporters came on-board and soon they had a bunch of folk helping and giving, as they felt the immense importance of what was about to happen. Rachael and Phil headed back to the mountains in Lebanon in November 2017 with suitcases filled with a huge variety of very simple learning support materials. Rachael led the training from Monday to Wednesday, and the team of teachers wrestled with how they were going to make this work in their culture. Because of a solid relational and crosscultural understanding, the team not only wanted to follow the proposed model but understood the ‘why’ - so important for sustainability. Phil said, “It was such an honour and privilege to see the new pre-
school open on the Thursday for 40 refugee children from ages 3 to 5. Seeing the team put into practice ideas that had only been explained 24 hours previously was simply amazing.” Rachael said, “It was really exciting seeing the children arriving and then seeing everyone so engaged and absorbed in what they were doing.” It was such a team effort. Aprender are so grateful for the support, practically and financially, that they received leading up to the trip. Bookham Baptist Church has been a key supporter for the last 7 years and continues to provide resources and prayer that are so welcome. Various groups that meet up in Bookham also made items to send and gave financially too. The ‘Babes on the Run’ fitness group had a pre-Christmas Family Charity Bootcamp on 23rd December, raising funds for Aprender and this pre-school project. Thanks, Kim and the team and everyone that came, burnt calories and had fun! Since returning to the UK, Rachael and Phil have become members of the pre-school’s WhatsApp group and are amazed to see the photos and videos that have been posted showing the transformation happening with the children and volunteers. Aprender continue to support and empower as we conduct the second training event in January 2018, evaluating what has been working and growing understanding of how we can improve. With a great team of volunteers on the ground, we are confident that the new pre-school will go from strength to strength. January is the time of thick snow in the mountains and few venture outside to play. Our hope is that we can help provide some new outdoor play equipment in time for the spring when the snow has gone and the children can play and explore their new emerging world. If you would like to know more or support this on-going partnership and donate to fund training and equipment, please visit Aprender’s website at www.aprender.co.uk and click the ‘Make A Donation’ button. You can also follow Aprender on Facebook and Twitter at aprenderuk. We would love to show Esher and Claygate the results of its generosity, following our third visit in April 2018. By Phil Hawkins
Summer Sizzle DESIGNS FOR ALL SEASONS
New Homes Garden Awards - Best Communal Garden & Garden of the Year 2010
SELINA BOTHAM - www.designsforallseasons.co.uk
Summer is the last season to consider in this seasonal series. We get such lovely long, light evenings in summer in Britain and so summer is often when people use their gardens the most. It may seem a long way away on a dismal January day, but if you want to make any changes in your garden for next summer, you need to start now really. Here are a few ideas you could consider to give your garden a touch of ‘summer sizzle’ in 2018: - How about swinging in a hammock in the shade of a tree? - A summer house or garden office to work in or sit in for shade and shelter. - A swimming pool or splash pool to cool off in. - Flowers of any colour you like … there are so many to choose from in summer. Pick those which will grow well in your soil type and take care to choose ones that will like the aspect you have in mind for them e.g. lavenders need full sun, so there is no point planting them in the shade. - Don’t miss out on cooking outside and have fun with a BBQ or gas grill and even an outdoor kitchen for summer parties. - You could include a fire-pit for the cooler evenings. - Allow room for games too (if that is important for you): bowls, croquet, volleyball or badminton can all
22 Looklocal Magazine - February 2018
be played on a flat lawn. Football, of course, although the nets can ruin the view. - Most children these days seem to have a trampoline and these double up for adults and children alike to lie on and star gaze on a hot summer’s night. - Grow edible flowers for salads. Try violas and chives which are pretty and tasty. Day lilies and nasturtiums too add a brighter edible note. - Growing vegetables can be worthwhile too and a quick project is some mangetout and rocket. Tomatoes are normally successful and so much tastier than shop bought ones. A well-designed garden will lead you outside and encourage you to be spend time surrounded by nature and enjoying the great outdoors, which is at your fingertips in your very own garden. A great garden makes a ‘staycation’ seem appealing and every weekend like a holiday.

This guide about backing up our computers was written by Les Beer, from Tecres in Leatherhead, which has been providing computer solutions since 1989.
This is a rapidly emerging matter, and at the time of writing - 12 Jan 2018 - this is the current situation. Due to the nature of this issue, the advice may change. There have been two different security exploits (or weaknesses) discovered which are affecting most processors used for PCs, laptops, Macs, smartphones, tablets, iPads and iPhones manufactured since 1995 to now. The processor is the very heart of your device, it controls almost every function on the device. It has been found that the microcode that manages the processor has vulnerabilities, meaning there is a possibility that an unknown party could access your computer without your knowledge. There is no evidence that this has ever happened, but the fact that it exists is concern enough. Because the processor and its microcode are a sealed unit, the manufacturers cannot re-engineer the processor, so the resolution is to update the device operating software to ensure protection. It is important to ensure your device has the latest operating system patches installed. Windows 10 has already had the patches applied, so if you have automatic updates enabled you are protected; Windows 7 and 8 updates are due by the end of January 2018. Apple computers require MacOS 10.13.2 or above, Apple phones and tablets require IOS11.2 or above and
24 Looklocal Magazine - February 2018
Apple TVOS 11.2 are all patched, but you may need to apply these updates manually. Android devices were patched in December 17 and January 18, so should be protected if kept up to date. If you have a reputable internet security program, this has probably already been patched to secure your device. Because your device is now doing a bit more “processing” or work, it may not respond as quickly as it once did, but this performance drop is said to be between 2-9%, as most devices have this capacity spare - this shouldn’t really be noticeable. If you are concerned that your devices performance has declined too much, please get in contact with us, as there is a good chance we can offer a resolution to the problem We have experienced some updates and patches causing a significant performance drop, but these patches have been withdrawn and reissued. This is a developing matter, and as we find out more, we are very happy to share it with you. If you would like to be kept up to date, please email us at sales@tecres.co.uk, requesting to be updated. This information is for your guidance and is not intended to panic you. There is minimal likelihood you are at risk. I am sure the telephone scammers will be calling soon about this matter, please do not fall foul. Our best advice is to tell the scammers you do not have broadband or a computer.

Book Reviews FEBRUARY ISSUE
“BOOKS ARE UNIQUELY PORTABLE MAGIC” - STEPHEN KING
The Late Show by Michael Connelly (Paperback £7.99) Michael Connelly’s new detective, Renee Ballard, more than lives up to the Bosch character from his previous novels. Renee is a homicide detective who was rising through the ranks before being relegated to the night shift. This followed the dismissal of a sexual harassment complaint against her boss. She is tasked with covering the 11pm7am shift which normally leaves her in limbo, unable to follow through on the cases she catches in the “late show”. The story follows Renee’s fast-paced and unrelenting pursuit of three cases which come her way in one shift. She believes she cannot allow the usual procedures to prevent her from working these crimes and bringing them to a successful closure. Battling opposition in her working life and inner turmoil in her private life, Renee is a complex character about whom I look forward to learning more! Eighteen Below by Stefan Ahnhem (Hardback £18.99) The third outing for Fabian Risk now working in Malmo and former Copenhagen detective Jurja Hougaard, now demoted (unjustly of course!) to patrol officer in Helsingor. In a crowded field, I found these books stood out. They’re exciting page turners but the most interesting threads are the interaction between the various characters and the antagonism between the Swedish and Danish police. Animal: The Autobiography of a Female Body by Sara Pascoe (Paperback £8.99) Pascoe’s exploration of the science of female bodies is fascinating, relatable and funny. Pascoe’s humour is a great foil to the topic of negative body image, making this a wonderful book for teenagers and any adult (female or male) who doesn’t fully appreciate their “clever old fat”. When informed about how female bodies have evolved and how attitudes towards them have changed, our most punishing cultural norms are seen for what they are: laughably stupid and regrettably influential. A great read for all human animals.

Winter, won’t you come along, there’s nothing left of autumn now The trees have lost their snappy clothes, discarded wet upon the ground Gold and russet waved goodbye, reveal a grey in transit sky. Decoration swept away. Winter, arrogant and strong, no promises of colour here Everything is cold or cosy, you understand no compromise Red faces laugh as fires glow, while frozen hearts die in the snow. You’ve stolen half the day. Celebrations soon forgot; the season has become a chore Dreams of shrouded days emerge as expectation starts to mount Life, come feed and paint the scene, I’m tired of winter cold and mean. You’ve suddenly grown old. New shapes rise as life appears, youth replaces hopelessness Spring is something I can smell, punctual yet awe-inspiring Suddenly it’s hope that leads, nature’s young serve different needs. Questioning and bold It seems an age or two that’s past, since I felt the sun’s caress Will summer ever warm the wind and dry the fields of sodden grass Life is ripe, it’s time to lie beneath the sun in clear blue sky. A search for kinder weather Summer, healing, here at last, never uninvited comes Ever friendly and relaxed, the countryside is kind and free Overcoats and bitter days seem a million miles away. Afternoons that last forever Another blink and Autumn falls, the sap is in its last retreat And now the summer, disappeared, I can’t let go, it’s gone too soon Leaves once fleshy, green and strong are brown and struggle to hold on. It’s Time for change

Theatre returns PROFESSIONAL REPERTORY
TO LEATHERHEAD - WWW.LEATHERHEADTHEATRE,COM/LEATHERHEADREPSEASON
Seasonal rep will return to The Leatherhead Theatre after almost 30 years, with a series of three plays presented by professional theatre company Hordern Ciani. This exciting new initiative will be brought to the area by the team behind the hugely successful Swanage Rep. The brand new season for the community of Leatherhead and surrounding areas will see the company of nine actors perform across all three shows, rehearsing one play during the day whilst performing another at night. The Leatherhead season will feature ‘Yes, Prime Minister’, the stage version of the smash hit TV series by the original writers Antony Jay and Jonathan Lynn, ‘The Secret Garden’, a brand new musical adaptation by Dave Simpson based on the novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, and ‘Communicating Doors’ by hugely popular playwright Alan Ayckbourn. The Leatherhead Theatre is a 500 seater, Grade II listed building which originally opened as The Thorndike, a purpose-built rep theatre in 1969, named after Dame Sybil Thorndike. However, the last professional
repertory season to play there was in the late 1980s. Katherine Mount, Producer and co-founder of Leatherhead Rep said: “We are so excited to be bringing our rep season to this beautiful theatre, and feel extremely privileged to be working in a facility that was designed for, and was home to repertory theatre for so long. Regional theatres often overlook ‘traditional plays’ in their programming and we feel lucky to have been welcomed here with such open arms, and to be able to restore this wonderful tradition to the local community of Leatherhead. We hope everyone will come out in support of this and enable the theatre to thrive once again” Tickets for all three shows in the Spring rep season can be purchased from The Leatherhead Theatre box office on 01372 365141 or via their website w w w. t h e l e a t h e r h e a d t h e a t re . c o m / leatherheadrepseason. The season opens on Tuesday 17th of April 2018 and closes on the 5th of May 2018.

raises charity funds GARSONS
GARSONS, WINTERDOWN RD, WEST END ESHER KT10 8LS - WWW.GARSONS.CO.UK
Award-winning garden centre and farm shop Garsons of Esher has raised a staggering £4,650 for their charity of the year for 2017, Fabian’s Childhood Cancer Trust. Money has mounted up thanks to charity boxes at the tills, collections which took place at Garsons’ Christmas food market and late night shopping events, and donations at children’s half term craft events in May and October. A pair of real reindeer even lent a hoof to the fundraising. When these beautiful animals took up residence at Garsons in the run-up to Christmas, shoppers were able to visit them for free, but were encouraged to give any spare change into collection buckets in the reindeer enclosure. Fabian’s Childhood Cancer Trust was set up in memory of local schoolboy, Fabian Bate, who sadly passed away in November 2014 from relapsed childhood leukaemia at the age of 12. He had a strong connection with Garsons as he was a keen gardener and loved to spend time in their pick-your-own (PYO) fields. Last summer, the family-run business even named one of its PYO fields in his memory. “A big thank you to the team at Garsons for supporting and motivating us towards our goals. It has given us a huge boost. Their support has enabled us to see that our work could help more children find a long-term cure for
36 Looklocal Magazine - February 2018
leukaemia,” says Fabian’s mum, Lydia, who founded the organisation with her father, Frank Watson. “And it has meant so much to our family to know that Fabian will be remembered always by having a field named after him.” Fabian’s Childhood Cancer Trust supports families who have a child diagnosed with cancer, and aims to provide around 200 overnight and `treat’ bags a year for parents staying on the wards of the children’s cancer unit at the Royal Marsden Hospital. It also raises vital funds for research into relapsed childhood leukaemia and has supplied much-needed centrifuge testing equipment to help with this research. With help from Garsons, the charity which started at the end of 2014 is now hoping to sponsor a Masters student to carry out drug research. “It has been a privilege to support this wonderful charity which makes a real difference to local families and we are extremely grateful to our customers who have been so generous and helped us achieve this amazing total,” says director of Garsons, Ben Thompson. Garsons, which has been at the heart of the community for almost 150 years, supports a different charity every year.
