For that holiday feeling...

To give apprehensive Britons a slice of that foreign holiday feeling without leaving the UK, Love Home Swap has launched holidays to British places that have foreign names – including California (in Great Yarmouth), Bermuda (in Warwickshire) and New York (in Lincolnshire), as well as several other UK towns and villages that share their name with foreign destinations.

Love Home Swap has launched these unique holidays to give nervous Britons the opportunity of a memorable vacation as well as the chance to say they’re going somewhere exotic, but without ever actually leaving the UK.

For each location, there are suggested itineraries and fun things to see and do.

The home swapping company launched the holidays after its research revealed that as a result of the pandemic 64% of British people are too nervous to travel abroad this year and will not leave the UK - despite quarantine rules lifting in many places.

To help Britons plan and arrange a holiday to a UK place with a foreign name, Love Home Swap has created an accompanying guidebook called ‘Around The World In Britain’. Designed in the style of vintage travel postcards the snappy guidebook covers 10 holidays in UK towns and villages with international names. For each location, there are suggested itineraries and fun things to see and do, as well as recommended Love Home Swap holiday properties to stay in.

To mark the launch of its holidays to British places with foreign names, Love Home Swap is giving away a number of complimentary three-month memberships to Britons that had holidays cancelled in any of the international namesakes.

So, if someone had a holiday cancelled in New York, USA they could arrange a free stay in New York, Lincolnshire (or in any of the UK properties on Love Home Swap).

Interested parties can apply by entering details and supplying proof of their original booking via https://rb.gy/0eg4jp.

This year marks 50 years since the Weald & Downland Living Museum first opened its doors and it is celebrating with an exciting series of events.

The Weald & Downland Living Museum opened in 1970 and was founded by Dr J.R Armstrong MBE. The aim of the Museum is to preserve historical buildings and increase the awareness of traditional crafts, trades and industries. Set in the peaceful surroundings of the South Downs National Park in Chichester, the Museum is home to over 50 historic buildings, from as early as 950AD! Across the 40-acre site, the Museum shows extraordinary examples of early architecture, materials used in construction and tells the stories of those who lived and worked in rural South East England over 1,000 years ago.

There are various events planned to celebrate the Museum’s 50th anniversary year, including a special celebration on the 5th September, the date the Museum officially opened to the public 50 years ago. Guests are invited to celebrate at a 1970s inspired birthday picnic where they will be provided with a special Weald & Downland hamper and will be encouraged to dress up in costume from that era. This is an exclusive ticketed, evening event - to book please visit the Museum’s website.

The Museum is home to over 50 historic buildings, from as early as 950AD! As well as the picnic, throughout the weekend (5-6th September), there will be a series of demonstrations, speakers and displays as part of a special Historic Life Weekend to coincide with the anniversary, showcasing all that is great about the Museum and the traditional crafts, skills and architecture it works so hard to preserve.

Providing an interactive insight into our rural history, the Museum offers a wonderful day out for visitors of all ages. From exploring the historic buildings as well as the six historic gardens to seeing traditional agricultural work, management of the woodland and historic life demonstrations.

To ensure social distancing restrictions can be maintained, only limited numbers are allowed on-site each day so booking in advance is essential. Please visit www.wealddown.co.uk to book and find further details.

GET READY FOR THE 4TH ANNUAL UROLOGY AWARENESS MONTH THIS SEPTEMBER! Urology Awareness Month is held every September, dedicated to increasing knowledge and awareness about urological conditions. During this special month, The Urology Foundation (TUF) aims to get the nation talking about prevention, treatment and management of issues that affect the kidney, urinary tract and male reproductive system, such as cancer, infertility, incontinence and erectile dysfunction. TUF is also asking people to raise money to fund vital research into the disease.

Urological conditions will affect 1 in 2 people during their lifetime, yet they remain shrouded in secrecy and silence.

Incontinence can impact an individual’s quality of life and the NHS estimates that up to 6 million people suffer from urinary incontinence so if you’re one of them, you’re not alone and you’re certainly not powerless to solve the problem – it’s time to take control of your bladder!

We know that exercise if great for our physical and mental health, but it can also improve symptoms when you choose

activities that don’t exert great pressure on your abdominals, like swimming, walking, cycling and Pilates. Consultant Urological Surgeon at Chichester Nuffield Hospital, Dan Magrill, knows how important it is to feel comfortable when you exercise and has some tips on how to take control of your bladder with an active lifestyle such as: • Making sure you empty your bladder before you set out on a run, cycle or swim • Factor in toilet stops on your routes • Avoid caffeine or alcohol before you exercise (as they can irritate the bladder) The Urology Foundation (TUF) believes the taboo and negative attitudes surrounding urology must end.

Consultant urologist, Barnaby Chappell explains the importance of especially spreading awareness amongst men, not only to spot symptoms or to see their GP, but to talk about it openly. The Urology Foundation urges all men and women suffering from urological conditions or symptoms to see their GP so they can access the necessary care and treatment and regain their quality of life.

Portsmouth DSA is a self-funding charity providing much needed specialist services and friendship for children with Down syndrome.

Families tell us that our services provide a lifeline for them. Like all charities, donations have been badly hit by the COVID-19 crisis, so we are launching our October T21 challenge to help raise vital funds so we can continue supporting our wonderful young people.

Challenges can be socially distanced and accessible for all abilities; it just needs to include the number 21! Could you walk or run for 21 miles or minutes? Do 21 star jumps for 21 days? Bake 21 cakes or carry out 21 acts of kindness? The choice is unlimited and whatever your challenge, every penny of the sponsorship raised will be used to support our children and help them reach their full potential.

For more information please contact Ellen at events3@portsmouthdsa.org or sign up at www.eventrac.co.uk.
