Now that we are starting to say goodbye to the winter months and the days are beginning to get warmer (touch wood), we can start to make some real progress on our gardens. That being said, your garden to-do list can be a little overwhelming. The weather has taken its toll and things are looking a little messy. In this situation, it’s often best to clear the mind and get a fresh start before tackling all the spring garden duties. That’s why The Directory Group has made your to-do list for you, to help your garden ‘spring clean’ be as effective as possible before things get serious:
1. 2. 3. 4.
Wash your pots Restock bird food Trim hedges ready for bird nesting De-weed – it’s easier to remove weeds while they’re still young 5. Prune, prune & more prune 6. Remove plant debris to keep things tidy 7. Organise this year’s seeds by sowing date – you’ll be thankful for this later! 8. Fertilise the beds ready for the upcoming growing season 9. Deadhead away 10. Put supports in for when things start to grow.

March is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. Ovarian cancer is the UK’s deadliest gynaecological disease, but many women are unaware of the symptoms. The charity, Target Ovarian Cancer says that the earlier a woman is diagnosed with ovarian cancer the more likely she will respond to treatment. However, most women are diagnosed once the disease has already spread. This Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, The Directory Group are urging readers to join forces to make sure that more women are diagnosed earlier to help save lives! It's so vital that we keep raising awareness and funding research if we are going to create a better future for the thousands of women affected by the disease. You can help by raising awareness through things like social media and putting up posters at work. Or you can raise money through organising a ‘Walk in
Her Name’ in your local area with friends and family. Visit the Target Ovarian Cancer website today to sign up receive your fundraising pack and help fight Ovarian Cancer www.targetovariancancer.org.uk Below are a few symptoms of ovarian cancer, but you can find out more about symptoms, diagnostic and treatment by visiting www.targetovariancancer.org.uk/informationand-support/what-ovarian-cancer/ovariancancer-symptoms • Persistent bloating • Feeling full quickly and/or loss of appetite • Pelvic or abdominal pain • Urinary symptoms

EARLY SPRING LOVE FOR YOUR LAWN Spring: the season of awakening and new life, the blooming of fresh buds and reemerging beautiful colour. It can be a truly inspiring time that is invigorating to the senses.
Preparing your garden requires a little effort, but the result can be a gorgeous green space to be proud of. At GreenThumb Lawn Treatment Service we know from experience that a big effort in spring pays dividends. It’s now, more than any other time of the year, that specialist lawn care advice comes in handy. GETTING AHEAD - If you didn’t have your lawn aerated and scarified this winter, there might yet be just enough time to fit it in before we really start to hit the warmer, drier months. Regardless, now is definitely the time to start thinking about getting all the necessary nutrients into the lawn through the right spring/summer treatment programme. MOWING - The amount of lawn mowing required will naturally increase; GreenThumb recommends implementing a, regular mowing programme. Dry, sunny days are the best for lawn mowing. It’s important that mower blades are kept sharp or replaced when needed to avoid causing damage to the grass plant. Also, cutting the grass too short, too soon will weaken it, attracting unwanted weeds and moss. If possible, it is best for a lawn to be cut at least once a week, to a height of about 25mm (1”). A little maintenance in the form of consistent mowing will help train the grass to be stronger over time.
KEEP IT CLEAR - Another way to help a lawn through spring is to rake up any dead leaves and twigs from the lawn and cut back overhanging plants; this is because grass needs as much direct sunlight and air as possible to stay healthy and green. As the ground starts to warm, it’s a good time to repair bare patches that can appear over winter. To do so, carefully rake the patch to create a bed, sow the seeds with a little top-soil and don’t let them dry out; they will germinate in a few days (temperature permitting). GreenThumb can assist in this regard, as we have the best seed and an excellent 100% organic top-dressing. TREATMENT TIME - At GreenThumb we tailor our treatments to suit our part of the country and the conditions we find here. Treatment programmes should be, and are, designed with the greatest care for lawns: whatever your lawn needs, we tailor our advice to suit the conditions. We have the solutions to transform any piece of grass, whatever the size or condition - into a healthy, fresh and beautiful lawn. Finally, remember to ENJOY YOUR GARDEN. It is meant to be a pleasure, not a chore. Make the effort now and enjoy the months ahead. For more information call us on 02392 591455 or email hampshiresoutheast@greenthumb.co.uk visit www.greenthumb.co.uk.

L I B E RT Y FOSTER CARE
Foster a child After only three years with the RNLI, crewmember Janet Denman has been made Crew of the Year (2019) In 2016 Janet joined the Hayling RNLI Station volunteers not sure if she would fit in nor what she could offer the crew. She was prepared to sweep up and make the tea! She did so but rapidly emerged as a crew member doing much more than that and was immediately valuable to the station. Three years later she describes her journey ‘After 16 months I passed out as a shore crew member and was invited to train as boat crew. The RNLI has been the best thing that could have happened to me. I can now follow the mantra of Sir William Hillary, seen at Poole, “….with courage nothing is impossible.” This attitude has clearly impressed the crew who after a relatively short time with them have voted her Crew of the Year. Presenting the award Andrew Ferguson, Senior Helm said ‘She is a quiet dependable, reliable and highly committed and competent member of our crew who thoroughly deserves this award.’ Janet said ‘I love all the roles and jobs and it’s a proud moment for me to get this award.’
If you would like to become a member of the shore crew team then get in touch with us, either by visiting us on a Wed evening or Sunday morning or by ringing 07749 061220.
We’re extremely proud of our carers and the amazing work they do, and we’d love for you to join our team.
WE OFFER... • Fostering allowances from £375 to £625 per week, per child • Child focussed training to build on your existing skills and experiences • 24 hour social work support
YOU WILL NEED... • To provide a safe and caring environment • A spare bedroom for the child • A commitment to foster children Our Foster carers highly recommend us. Together we can make a difference.
Contact us for an information pack: 01428 624550 www.libertyfostercare.co.uk *Receive £250 when a referral becomes

5th of March
World Book Day is a registered charity which aims to give every child and young person a book of their own. This year, the 23rd worldwide annual World Book Day celebrations will take place on the 5th March and will see children, teachers and parents from over 100 countries come together to appreciate reading.
Although the main aim of the celebrations is to encourage children to explore the pleasures of books and reading, World Book Day is a day where people of all ages have all come to know and love. Over the years, we have seen parents, grandparents, guardians and friends piece together magnificent (some not so much) costumes of their child’s favourite book character. Undoubtedly though, this day may fill some parents with the slight dread, with the thought of scrambling a presentable costume together looming over us into the early hours of the night before the big day. In today’s world, people are often consumed with technology that we forget how many benefits reading books can have for everyone. This month, the team at TDG are encouraging as many people as possible to reignite the reading flames inside us all! To do so here is a list of 5 benefits reading has below:
1. Knowledge:
Although seemly obvious, people tend to forget the fact that reading builds knowledge, something that will make you better equipped to face everyday situations.
2. Entertainment:
Reading isn’t just about learning; it’s about enjoyment too! Finding a book, author or genre you like and reading at your own pace is a brilliant lowbudget way to keep you and your family entertained.
3. Expansion of Vocabulary: Think of it as a reading life cycle; the more you read, the more words you are exposed to and the more likely you will be worked into your vocabulary.
4. Stress reduction:
Reading a novel can transport people into other realms of reality, causing a distraction from real life and allowing time for you to relax.
5. Improved concentration: In this crazy, fast-paced world, our attention is often drawn in a million different directions. Reading can help you focus your attention on one story, allowing everything else to drift away and give your mind time to breathe.
Thousands of supermarkets and book shops take part in World Book Day; you can find your local participating Bookseller by visiting www.worldbookday.com and make sure to follow #WorldBookDay on social media to see how the rest of the world is celebrating!

ROCK YOUR SOCKS FOR DOWN SYNDROME AWARENESS WEEK
LANDSCAPES Family run business, 40 years combined experience Fencing • Patios • Decking Hard Landscaping • Soft Landscaping Brickwork • Turfing •Artificial Grass
Insured to £2 million Portsmouth Down Syndrome Association invite the Hampshire community to support their celebrations during Awareness Week 15th- 21st March.
Last year thousands of individuals in schools, workplaces and organisations joined the celebrations by supporting the charity’s ‘Rock Your Socks’ Campaign. This global initiative raises awareness and promotes inclusion by inviting individuals to wear colourful socks for one day, the wackier the better! Charity chairperson Rachael Ross MBE says, “We are all individuals with our own strengths, and we all deserve the right to experience success and be acknowledged as valued members of our communities. By wearing ‘different’ socks, we hope to highlight the importance of tolerance and acceptance, and to celebrate our wonderful differences which make us all so unique. When people with Down syndrome are given opportunities to participate and be fully included, the whole community benefits.”
How you can help:
To show your support, please Rock Your Socks and post on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using the hashtags #PortsmouthDownSyndrome @PortsmouthDSA #RockYourSocks #WDSD. Please go to www.portsmouthdsa.org to find out more about the charity or to contact us. www.portsmouthdsa.org

HAYLING ISLAND MARCH 2020 PORT SOLENT’S COMIC CON SET TO RETURN IN 2020
Port Solent’s award-winning Comic Con event has been announced to make a return in 2020, in response to unprecedented demand. The event which brought recordbreaking visitor numbers to the waterside leisure spot in 2017 and 2018, will wow crowds again on Saturday 27 June. Port Solent’s boardwalk and waterside will welcome professional character costumers and cosplayers, celebrity guest signers, a comic- themed market, gaming zones, TV and movie props and cars, live music, entertainment and so much more in conjunction with GoGeek Events CIC.
IOW ZOO - RESCUED LIONS MOVE INTO NEW-BUILD HOUSE Two rescued lion brothers have moved into a brand new lion house at the Isle of Wight Zoo on Sandown seafront. Complete with a heated sleeping area, the new accommodation also features specially reinforced full-height windows which allow the public incredibly privileged, close-up views when Kumba and Vigo are not enjoying the outdoors. The zoo’s Animal Manager Marc Fox said: “After such an unfortunate start to their lives, we are so pleased to be able to provide Kumba and Vigo with really modern, comfortable and engaging new accommodation. They will now have a stimulating environment which caters for all of their needs” Vigo and Kumba were brought to the zoo last year after being saved from a Spanish circus where they spent most of their lives cooped up together in a lorry trailer. When they were young they were neutered, beaten and their claws were cruelly and painfully removed. IOW zoo is encouraging people to come and welcome the lions into their new house as every visit raises vital funds for their ongoing care. It costs approximately £12,000 to look after each lion for one year.
Port Solent’s Lisa Fowler said: “We’re very excited to be announcing the return of Comic Con due to its huge popularity in 2017 and 2018. Lots of our customers wanted to see it make a return and we’re delighted to make it happen. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone’s fantastic costumes again. “We will be making announcements right up until the event itself with confirmed acts and entertainment so we encourage everyone to keep an eye on our social media channels and website for all the information. To find out more visit www.portsolent.com
Open daily from 10am, Isle of Wight Zoo is home to many rescued big cats and other exotic animals and can be found on the seafront at Sandown. More details can be found online at: www.isleofwightzoo.com
