Well we are still in a partial lockdown but freedom, in a safe way, is just around the corner. We have been enjoying eating out again with friends and many of you will have booked or even been on holiday but for those of you staying at home this Summer, how about treating yourself to a garden makeover. We have plenty of advertisers who can help you in the garden or home. In fact, if you need a treat of any kind, we have it here. If you were one of the many who changed their careers and started a new business during the past year of lockdown, then we want to hear from you. Don’t keep it to yourselves, come and advertise your service in the local Oracle and get some business on your doorstep. We have helped so many start ups in the past 17 years, we have lost count! After a tough year looking after her mum with Dementia, Anna has chosen to do a 320 cycle in 4 days to raise funds for Alzheimer’s Society and make a difference. See page 21 for details. All editions can be found on the website each month if you lose your copy or wish to share with someone else thelocaloracle.co.uk. We will be also be sharing information on our social media pages which can easily be found.... facebook.com/thelocaloracle or Twitter.com/thelocaloracle.

All the best to you all and have a great month.

DON’T FORGET TO MENTION THE LOCAL ORACLE


PERSONAL & LEISURE

My beautiful mum was diagnosed with Vascular Dementia 3 years ago so I signed up to cycle from London to Paris in 2020 to raise money for Alzheimer’s Society. Sadly this event has been cancelled 2 years running now so I am going to cycle the same 320 mile distance over 4 days. From West Malling, around the South Coast to Portsmouth and back starting on Thursday 29th July and returning on Sunday 1st August. If you have/have had a family member affected by this devastating disease you will want to find a cure too. Please help me to raise awareness and money to help with support and funding for research.

Let’s help take the pain away for so many. x Anyone wanting to join us or be involved in some way, please contact me: 07939 248983 anna@thelocaloracle.co.uk All funds are going straight to the Alzheimer’s Society. https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/anna-marshall27 DON’T FORGET TO MENTION THE LOCAL ORACLE
