Our Magazines: The Directories: Petersfield Edition Dist: 8,200 Dear readers, Firstly, I would like to say a huge thank you to those of you who completed our readers survey last month. The Directory is YOUR magazine, so it really does make a difference, so we can ensure what we include within these clever little books is of interest to you. In your edition of The Directory for July we focus our attention on 70 years of the NHS, which was established in England on the 5th July 1948. At some point in our lives we have all relied on the service of our excellent health system, so our article on its anniversary concentrates on the people behind the organisation and the brilliance it provides. Elsewhere we have a full-page feature on the importance of protecting our environment by making the Solent area free from single use plastic. Locally, volunteers at the Final Straw Solent do an admirable job at engaging businesses by making their mark against the problem disposable plastic is having. Share your thoughts on #SayNoToPlastic with us on social media. Concentrating on Hampshire and the surrounding areas, we signpost you to several local markets and the importance they have within our community. Team TDG are passionate about the traditional market so we met people who oversee stalls for themselves to really understand the value it has on their career and the local economy. One thing I love about markets is the chance it provides to build relationship with local producers; it’s so important! There’s the usual Business Buddies with inspiration from Ian Dickson, Community News, and What’s on and Where. Let’s not forget the hundreds of local businesses advertising their services. All in all, thanks for reading The Directory. Have a brilliant July! Denise Lloyd, Managing Director SUN 50+

Local Markets The wonders of shopping locally are endless; there is so much excellent local produce to choose, from clothing to household gadgets, dairy products, fruit and vegetables.

says supporting local business is important. “Many markets and local shops have more to offer to its customers – we can be more bespoke in the service we provide” she said.

Consumers are spoiled for choice when shopping; many become reliant on supermarket chains and recognised corner shop brands, but what about our local markets?

Stalls are a superb way to show your appreciation for all things local! Tony, who sells dairy products, says the local market needs to be used so it is not lost.

Our high streets have regularly had stalls for as long as we can remember – being a focal point for our community.

He said: “By shopping locally, people will get fresher products and quality produce. It is important to keep shopping with us for the market to remain.

“Many markets are vibrant offering a place for the community to come together and support local businesses” Deciding to support Hampshire’s markets requires an active decision to purchase items there – and not elsewhere. At your local market, many stalls will offer you the chance to taste before you buy, most items are fresh and in season, and there’s countless products likely to be cheaper compared to supermarkets. Rachelle Misselbrook, from Raindrops on Roses Florist, at Petersfield Market,

“Shopping in a market is enjoyable and you build relationship with those selling to you – which I think is important.”

award winning kitchen makeovers

After Makeover

Upto 50% cheaper than a new fitted kitchen We had several quotes & design suggestions from other companies before meeting Ben. From the first meeting we were impressed with Ben’s understanding of our needs & he gave us excellent practical ideas. We particularly liked that he was able to show us samples there and then, without the need to visit a show room. Dan & Mitch (our fitters) were brilliant- they were friendly, respectful of our home, involved us in decisions along the way and, without doubt, made the process far less stressful than we imagined it would be! We have been recommending Happy Kitchens to everyone we’ve shown off our fantastic new kitchen to. Thanks so much guys - Mr Fog

At Happy Kitchens, we offer a wide range of makeover services ranging from replacement worktops, kitchen doors, splashbacks, hinges and wirework to new appliances and much more. We also offer new kitchen design and installation services too.

3. If you are good enough, they will find you

Inspired by Ian Dickson’s Blog

Read more about this topic online, and other business relating tips, at www.iandickson.co.uk/my-blog/ Standing before a crowd of people may appear to be a daunting thing to do. However, if you are a business which desires to be successful then communicating who you are and what you do in person can support with its progress. Business Buddies highlight 5 points inspired by International Business Speaker and Multi Award Winning Coach Ian Dickson.

1. Courage builds confidence Ian became more confident because he was courageous enough to step up and face his fears. If public speaking doesn’t appear to be your thing, don’t ever rule out the idea of speaking publicly altogether; facing your fears may change your life!

2. It takes time

4. When speaking publicly, weakness can be a strength Some of the best speakers Ian has seen are those who still show some signs of vulnerability but are full of integrity and honesty. By the same token some of the worst speakers he has seen are those that exude overconfidence, cockiness and misguided sense of self-worth. Lacking integrity, honesty and congruency.

5. It’s not for everyone Acknowledge that some people simply don’t have the DNA to be successful public speakers. It isn’t for everyone. This doesn’t imply your business won’t succeed, but it’s good practice to play on your strengths!

5 tips on the importance of getting on stage to be successful in business

Ian didn’t seek out the paid opportunities, they sought him. This is an important note to consider. For Ian it was a marque of his readiness and achievement. This reminded him of the line “If you build it, they will come” – Head down, keep doing what you do best and eventually people will want to pay you for what you do.

For more Business Buddies articles, head to the blog at The Directory Group’s website on: www.thedirectorygroup co.uk/

Ian started his speaking journey in 2005 and delivered literally hundreds of free events to learn his craft and build confidence before people started inviting him to speak for International Speaker & money. Multi-Award-Winning Business Coach

YEARS OF THE 1948-2018 The National Health Service turns 70 this month presenting the perfect opportunity to celebrate the achievements of one of the nation’s most loved institutions. The Directory Group highlight some of the many positive areas of the NHS, and the vital role it plays in our lives. Established on 5th July 1948, by Aneurin Bevan, who was a Welsh Labour Party politician, the NHS has transformed the health and wellbeing of the nation and has become the envy of the world. If it wasn’t for radical thinking and a founding principal of free high-quality health care for all, the creation of the NHS may have never taken place. The NHS is a service we can all be proud of. The people behind the institution have delivered impressive medical advances and improvements to public health. As a result, we can all expect to live longer lives.

Due to the hard work and sheer determination of our NHS it has all but eradicated diseases such as polio and diphtheria and has lead new treatments such as the world’s first liver, lung and heart transplant. Britain’s NHS continues to drive innovations in patient care, including mechanical thrombectomy to improving stroke survival, surgical breakthroughs such as hand transplants, and bionic eyes to restore sight. Importantly, the NHS wouldn’t have developed into what we see today if it wasn’t for the skill, compassion and dedication of staff. Let’s not forget the volunteers’ charities and communities that support too. The list of breakthroughs is endless, and this month’s national celebration will delve into the institutions excellence and its future. Play your part in supporting the NHS by volunteering, raising cash for local NHS charities, or by taking steps to take care of your own health and use the services wisely.

Play your part in making Hampshire plastic free! We’ve all seen the headlines about the huge problems single-use plastics are having on the environment. People across the nation are continually being urged to act against the use of the synthetic material. But what is the campaigning all about? Around 8 million tonnes of plastic are poured into the ocean every year. These are broken down into extremely small pieces of plastic debris known as microplastics. Microplastics pollute the environment as a result from the disposal and breakdown of consumer products and industrial waste. This is harmful to wildlife, the environment, and potentially us. By working to reduce the use of single-use plastics we are steadily protecting our environment. Locally, voluntary groups are having a huge impact on the attitude people are having towards their use of plastic. The Final Straw Solent, now working with more than 100 local businesses, are doing an excellent job at making them fight

against the use of single-use plastics. Port Solent has pledged to swap plastic for paper, businesses in Emsworth have replaced plastic bags for environmentally friendly carriers, and Havant Borough Council is encouraging residents to make swaps. Bianca Carr, head volunteer at The Final Straw Solent, says working with local people will help the group achieve its goals. She said: “Collaborating with local businesses such as Port Solent will be incredibly successful and will help us to achieve our goals of one day making the Solent area, at the very least, free from single-use plastic straws.” Playing your part in making the Solent area plastic free can be achieved simply by making some straightforward swaps; replace your plastic water bottles for reusable materials; decline straws when offered – unless there is a paper alternative; avoid excessive food packaging, for example, purchase loose vegetables.

For more information on The Final Straw Solent, see their website: www.finalstrawsolent.org

GIVING BABY HEDGEHOGS THE BEST CHANCE OF SURVIVAL

VI N TAGE HIFI SP E C IAL IST S

We Love Vintage & Classic Hifi GREAT CASH PRICES PAID FOR HIFI SEPARATES

• Amplifiers • Speakers • Reel to Reels • Valve Amplifiers • Turntables

Each year we have a continuous stream of hedgehogs admitted to the hospital. Standard advice surrounding hedgehogs is that if you see one out during the day then it requires specialist help immediately. The exception is, at this time of year, when they may well be a mother hog out gathering food for her litter. In this case, the best course of action is to monitor the animal rather than disturbing it, and see what it is doing, but please do call us for advice if you are worried. Hedgehogs can produce two litters of young each year; the first are born around May/June and the second litters are born during August/ September. We receive many phone calls from members of the public after accidentally disturbing hedgehog nests. If you find a nest of hedgehogs, please do not handle them and avoid putting your scent on them and their nest as this would deter the mother from coming back. The babies’ best chances of survival are with their mother so please do give the mother a chance to attend and monitor the situation for a while.

GET MOVING FOR BETTER HEALTH AT ALTON FITNESS GROUP An Alton based charity dedicated to helping improve heart health, fitness and wellbeing has launched a second exercise class to get people moving. Aimed at older ladies, the ‘Heartbeat’ sessions provide an alternative to or to supplement the gym. The class is formed by gentle but sustained exercise to music, like zumba and dance with sufficient movement and various steps to challenge the body and mind.

“Designed to exercise all areas of the body, participants are encouraged to move as much as they can while having fun.”

Nikki Radcliffe, who oversees Alton Cardiac Rehab, says only 25 per cent of attendees at the exercise sessions at Cardiac Rehab were female. Therefore, it was decided to provide a class particularly for ladies in a bid to redress the balance. Anyone interested in attending a Heartbeat class will be required to complete a health questionnaire.

Paula Haidon, who assists with the sessions, says the classes are so Generally, the Tuesday class is full, but popular that the decision was made to the recently introduced sessions on launch a second class. Sessions now take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Thursdays take place at 4:15pm at the To advertise here call 01730 260746 or email sales@thedirectorygroup.co.uk

ALTON BUS RALLY WILL ENTERTAIN THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THIS MONTH Thousands of people are expected to turn out to one of Britain’s largest free bus rallies this month. The Alton Bus Rally, which will take place at Anstey Lane, from 10am to 5pm, will provide a large display of busses, classic cars, lorries, motorcycles, vans and emergency service vehicles.

David Hillman said: “This event is probably the best organised rally in the south and gets bigger and better every year whether you are into buses, lorries, cars, or any other form of motor transport.

“There’s plenty of chances to ride buses to loads of local towns and villages, there’s plenty of food available on site too. If you haven’t been I would highly recommend it for a day out.” Additional information on the event may be found at www.altonbusrally.org.uk

A free bus services from Anstey Park to various destinations including Alton, Medstead and Four Marks railway stations, Alton town centre and surrounding towns and villages will be in operation. The day promises to be entertaining for people of all ages, with stands, eateries and other various markets open on-site.

“One review on Facebook states the rally is one of the best in the south – and grows in popularity each year.”
