Chesterfield Timebank Timebanking originated in the US; with a simple basic principle. If you have a skill which other members could use, you can make it available in blocks of 1 hour. Each hour that you do something for another member or associated organisation is credited to your account. Then, if another Timebank member provides you with help they gain the time in their account, and yours is debited accordingly. The important thing is the hours can be moved around between accounts ‐ you don’t earn time from, or repay other members directly. You can even donate unused hours to other members if you wish. Timebank lists services required, so members can select any they would like to help with. People are then put directly in touch, so they can make arrangements informally between themselves, telling the Timebank what hours were used so they are credited/debited accordingly. Timebanking is not a substitute for services provided by official agencies, as it works at a local level where the bigger organisations may be ineffective. Chesterfield Timebank is funded by The British Legion, with whom it is working on health and well‐being projects; please get in touch if you or anyone you know may be a potential beneficiary or if you would like to get involved.

ie Lounge … Although this business sits slightly outside of S40, the general manager Richard Wood is local, living in Somersall so it seems only right that we have a quick chat about his business.

Vie Lounge is located behind St Marys church, you know… the one with the twisted spire! The directors Mark Jennison and Shane Hendon brought in Richard as manager after wanting to develop a Champagne and Cocktail bar, they knew Richard and were keen to get someone in who knew the game. After originally working in Chandlers Bar just a few doors down from Vie Lounge, Richard has spent a few years travelling the world working in cocktail bars and perfecting the art of “Flair Bar Tending”. Richard says that “judging by the response, we’re getting it just right. Recently we’ve had some London customers who were staying at the Ibis Hotel. They were pleasantly surprised to find Vie Lounge and were extremely happy with our cocktails, especially when they were paying about 50% of the London price … what can I say, London cocktails at Chesterfield prices, now that can’t be a bad thing can it?” Richard’s company The Bespoke Bar Tender Company can also be booked for your event or party, they can provide basic waiters and seasoned bar staff through to a great nights entertainment mixing cocktails, why not book them to run a cocktail class, a must for any Hen Night. Vie Lounge caters for all tastes and provides a selection of draft lagers, continental beers and real ales should you require, and if you just need a coffee they are open from 11:00am Thu to Sun for Coffee, Teas and cakes. So if you want to visit a small, friendly bar for a cocktail, Vie Lounge is the place … and if you need to make sure of a seat you can always reserve a sofa for your night out in the relaxed lounge area upstairs.

Editions his month S40 Local goes online. I think the web address is easy… www.s40local.co.uk and the design simple, but please go and have a look and let us know what you think.

It’s aim, again, is simple, to provide a community resource so you can find out ‘what’s on’ and search for local businesses, if you don’t have the magazine to hand. Every month we’ll add in the latest edition, which you will be able to read on the funky reader, it’s easy to use and, I think, really effective! You’ll also be able to look back at previous editions, refer to the useful numbers and contact us ‐ via the contact page, should you want to get in touch.

(although you will need to have web access) it will enable even more folk to view the magazine each month. As with all new stuff there are bound to be some teething problems but I hope you will let us know what you think. As I write this there are no businesses loaded and the ‘What’s On’ is empty, gives me a week to sort it before you receive this issue of S40 Local! I’d like to thank Tom Dodds, a local lad from Somersall, who developed it with us. I hope you will find it a useful local asset. Paul.

We are constantly amazed at the positive feedback we receive, and the people from outside the area who want to have a read, so hopefully

Sunshine Nursery 20 Years Young! In September 1990 Sunshine Nursery based at Walton Hospital, opened their doors for the first time. It might even have been Joanne Rodd or Tracey Taylor, who are both still working there, who opened them! Perhaps you were one of those children. Well, twenty years on, the nursery’s still going strong continuing to provide a safe, fun and stimulating learning environment for all the children in their care. Sunshine was originally set up as a workplace nursery for parents working in the NHS, Chesterfield Borough and North East Derbyshire Borough Councils ‐ offering 50 places split between the organisations. At that time there was only one other nursery in Chesterfield. Today the nursery runs as a commercial business, as part of the Derbyshire Community Health Service, with 58 registered places. Over the years Sunshine have welcomed approximately 1,000 children through their doors, and their loyal nursery staff have clocked up approximately 320 years of experience between them. To celebrate the 20th Anniversary they are holding a fun day on the 4th September, so, if you’ve been a Sunshine Nursery child, or if you’d like to visit just for the event, they would love to see you on Saturday between 2:00 ‐ 4:30, for a fun packed day. The Sunshine Nursery, a fun place to learn, grow and make friends.

Things to do in the garden this August

ugust is traditionally holiday time so enlist friends to help you keep your plants watered this month. Ten things to do this month include:

1. Make sure that any new plants, hanging baskets and plants in containers have enough water. 2. Prune wisteria and pyracanthus. 3. Make sure your pond is kept topped up. 4. Buy yourself a water butt to harvest any rain water. 5. Harvest your veggie crop as it becomes ready. 6. Cut back any herbaceous plants that have started to die back. 7. Raise your mower cut height to help your lawn remain green. 8. Don't forget to feed and water your house plants. 9. Dead head bedding plants and repeat flowering perennials. 10. Lift and pot up strawberry runners. Thanks to Paul @ Ashgate Garden Care Please ensure you mention S40 Local when responding

Brampton Carpets & Blinds Grand Eco Success In S40 Local we announced that products distributed by Brampton Carpets & Blinds reached the Finals in the Grand Designs Eco Awards 2010. In May the elegant, ceiling mounted “Rollingwave” infra red heating unit (pictured) was judged one of the UK’s top 5 eco products at London’s Grand Designs show, by a prestigious panel which included presenter Kevin McCloud of the Grand Designs television show. “Winning a place as Finalist in the Grand Designs Eco Awards is such a thrill. We are working hard to bring to the local market what we believe is a really exciting range of products that are as beautiful as they are eco‐friendly and cost‐ effecient. Nearly everyone has heard of wind power and solar powered products. Our objective was to let customers know about the safety and benefits of infra red energy.” Graham Hill BC&B

Brampton Carpets & Blinds supplies energy efficient products in a growing market. More business and domestic customers are sourcing alternative energy solutions that help to reduce cost and protect the environment. Infrared is a band of electromagnetic waves just under the visible range of light that cause molecules to oscillate and release heat energy.

Well Dressed: A busy month for Holymoorside The well dressings in Holymoorside celebrate local or national anniversaries, the subject being a well kept secret until construction begins. You could be amongst the first to discover the themes of the three Well Dressings; one prepared by children under 10, one for young people 10 – 16 and the main Well. Derbyshire dressings are traditionally prepared under cover with the frame laid out flat, but that’s not the case in Holymoorside. Here a huge wooden frame (approximately 12 ft x 9 ft) is erected on site and visitors can see the picture being created from scratch. The dressers are always willing to answer questions. THE CONSTRUCTION: Work begins when the clay, saved from previous years, is soaked in the river, ‘paddled’ and thickly applied by hand to the frame. The design is outlined with small pieces of wood – known as ‘barking up’ ‐ ready to receive the plant material. The skilled well dressers use whole flower heads, wherever possible (never shells, wool, paint or stone) and plant material donated by local gardeners. As the picture is created in situ, the finished result produces an astonishing 3D effect. If you have not visited before – come along it is not to be missed. You can see the ‘work in progress’ from Saturday 21st August. The Well Blessing Service, supported by Holymoorside Band is on Thursday 26th August at 7.00pm, and the Well Dressings will be on view until Saturday 8th September. Alongside the well dressings is the Scarecrow Trail, fun figures on show throughout the village from 23rd August ‐ walk around the village and spot your favourite. Two popular inspirational annual exhibitions ‐ Arts & Crafts Exhibition in St. Peter’s Church, and Chesterfield Embroiderers’ Guild Summer Exhibition in Holymoorside Methodist Chapel, both on view from Thurs 26th – Mon 30th August. On Saturday 28th August @ 2pm till 5pm there is the annual Family Fun Day at the village hall and recreation ground, with so much to enjoy including Ireland Colliery Band, Birds of Prey, Rural Crafts, Fairground Rides and Games, Cream Teas etc. as well as a Scarecrow Fancy Dress competition.

So what shall we do? Well here we may have the answer, we’ve tried to include many free activities, aside from the cost of getting there, parking and perhaps visiting the café’s Farm, or coffee shops … an essential out element we think! towards Mansfield.

Graves Park in Sheffield – here the

A particular favourite for us is Curbar Edge, with fantastic views over the valley, and rocks for the kids to climb on (I hope I don’t need a disclaimer to warn you that if you fall over a large cliff it is likely to/ will hurt!). Walks round Linacre Reservoir are great for a bit of fresh air – or Longshaw Estate is lovely for short walks, fun in the water at Padley Gorge, a visit to the café or even a longer walk across the road onto Carl Walk and Higger Tor. Close by there’s great scrambling and climbing over the rocks a short walk from the car park at Surprise View or from Fairholmes visitor centre at Ladybower Reservoir you can cycle, walk or discover the Dambusters.

If you like trams and trains don’t forget Crich Tramway Museum, Peak Rail for a steam train ride ‐ get on at Rowsley or Matlock, plus the Midland Railway Centre at Butterley. Millhouses Park in Sheffield has a great new splash water play in the park and is great fun for the kids when the sun is shining … oh and the scrambled egg and Parma ham on toast is ace! A little drive again, but only 30 minutes , Sherwood Pines – again towards Mansfield, has a picnic and BBQ area, paths for cycling and cycle hire facilities plus a great café!

Also here is Gullivers Kingdom or the Heights of Abraham So no excuses, where shall we go today? for cable car rides up to the caves. Visit Castleton for show caves or a walk to the top of Mam Tor. And for playground fun try the recently refurbished park at Bakewell. If you fancy a cycle we’ve miles of cycle tracks, the Monsal Trail, Middleton Top or Tissington, to name a few. 22

S40 Sports: The Barbarians are Coming

n the S40 district we’re lucky to have a range of sporting institutions ‘getting on’ with the job of providing access to sport. And you’re probably unaware of the very existence of many of them. Through these features we aim to broaden awareness and help promote these gems in our community. Looking Back In 1946 Chesterfield Barbarians Cricket Club was formed, as people, desperate to forget the horrors of war, sought some light relief. They based themselves at Somersall Park and were immediately successful but played only friendlies until the start of the 70s when the Yorkshire League was formed. Tragically, the Somersall Park pavilion was destroyed by fire in 1992, but the club had no immediate options and had to ‘make do’ with the less than perfect arrangements.

Brampton, Abercrombie, Brockwell and Hady primary schools, and as a result now field six junior "hardball" teams for children 10‐15 and four Kwik cricket teams for youngsters 7‐11. For the second successive year Old Hall excelled to reach the Derbyshire Schools 2010 Kwik Cricket Final, played at the County Ground. From the end of April to the start of the school holidays there’s hardly a day goes by when there isn’t a game or

opportunities to trial our youngsters in adult weekend fixtures.” Cricketing councillor and club Chairman, Tony Rogers, added his own thoughts “I’m over seventy now and still get the occasional call‐up to play, but I do insist on the youngsters having preference. There’s such a great family spirit at the club; my two sons played for the Barbs and I hope my two young grandsons will follow in their footsteps. I’m so proud of the club and the positive work it’s doing to promote wider interest. ” The longer term plans of the club are to further develop the club links with schools by broadening the coaching provision to both boys and girls, encourage the progression of the senior teams to higher level leagues and pursue the building of a new pavilion at Walton Dam.

They relocated in 1997 to the Robinsons Sports Ground at Walton Dam, after the Robinsons cricket team folded a year earlier, but misfortune struck again in 2003 when the Walton Dam pavilion also fell victim to arson.
