Welcome to

DOG grooming

the October 2015 edition

“Listen! the wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves, We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!” - Humbert Wolfe I am always just a little bit sad as the nights begin to draw in. I think it is the realisation that another summer has gone by, and that once again I haven’t managed to spend as much time enjoying the outdoors as I had planned to. It is also the thought of needing jumpers, coats and boots to be able to step outside the front door, I am far happier in short sleeves and sandals! Maybe one day I will move somewhere with a sunnier climate for more of the year, but in the meantime I will have to be satisfied with planning for next summer. This month we celebrate the 100th issue of Bawtry Today. Bawtry Today was the 3rd magazine I launched back in 2007 and it quickly grew with the support of local businesses and lots of regular contributors. It has had challenges along the way – I am thinking mainly of when a large newspaper publishing house launched a magazine in the area and gave theirs virtually the same name! Fortunately (for me) it was short lived, and I am incredibly pleased that Bawtry Today continues to be as well received as the other magazines I produce. Long may it continue.

All October appointments will be entered into a Prize Draw to win a Free Pre Christmas Dog Grooming session in Dec. 2015 plus a £25 Doggie Basket 2nd and 3rd places will receive a £20 doggie gift basket each Winning entries will be announced on our Facebook Page Terms & Conditions Apply

The C word. Hello again! Come on in and pull up a chair. I am so glad we can have these little visits. Again, it is always great to hear of people who read this little article and it impacts their lives in some way. That is what this is all about. Today, I wanted to have a chat about something I wish NO ONE would ever have to talk about ... and that is cancer. Every now and again, Facebook will bring up a previous post (for whatever reason) and basically ask you if you want to re-post it. There is that one pic of me with my 70’s ‘fro (remember those?). Do I want to re-post that one .. umm, no ... don’t think so. But then about 2 weeks ago, a post appeared that I submitted on the day mum died. Has it really been nearly 4 years ago?? Never! It was like a flashback. I remembered what mum’s room looked like and the weather that day. I had just got back to my brother’s house from visiting a church. My sister-in-law told me the “home” had called and said I need to get

there ASAP. My heart was racing. I didn’t know what to think ... but I knew what to expect. I am sure there are some, but I doubt many who have not been impacted in some way by the “C” word. I have had the privilege of getting to know an amazing lady called Marie Caygill. Marie is very bravely battling cancer. Many of us know her and have been following her journey on Facebook. Three or four months ago, Marie approached a few people about starting a Cancer support group. Her issue was that information about cancer was hard work to dig up and shouldn’t be so. I agree. She had a passion to develop (with the help of some others) a support group that would bring together some of the various agencies and support groups into one place to remove the hard digging work. She wants others who have cancer or family members to have an opportunity to rub shoulders with others who are dealing with the same issues. At these monthly meetings in our church space at the Holmescarr Community Centre, you would see young and old, those who are currently battling cancer and those who have been through it. You would see adult family members and ]

children playing in the corner. You would also see various groups that offer services ranging from lifts to chemo to those who offer “dream” experiences to cancer sufferers. Lastly, we have a special corner for prayer and reflection for obvious reasons. There is someone always someone there available to talk if that is what you need. At the writing of this article, the October meeting date has not yet been set. You can search on Facebook for “Doncaster Cancer Support Drop in Centre” to find out all the information you need. Marie is always happy when new people get connected with the group. You would find a warm welcome. Don’t try to walk down that road alone. As always, the door is open and the kettle is on.

Update from Councillor

Rachael Blake Litter, bins, speeding and FARRS are just a few of the issues that I have been contacted about this month as well as assisting residents with individual problems that I have been able to resolve. A couple of months ago I mentioned my walks with Radburn Tara and on these walks they had a number of suggestions for improvements. One was for a skip day that used to happen a few years ago having spoken to St Leger about this I was pleased that one has been arranged and will have taken place at the end of September. It was also good to see the improvements to the garage areas progressing.

FARRS and Inland Port developments Last month, along with John and Clive I had the opportunity to see how the link road was developing by driving all along the road and seeing the developments by Recycoal and the houses being built. I was impressed by the work so far but once the road opens it will not only be easier for Rossington residents to get to town either from Parrots Corner or West End Lane, and therefore reduce lorries coming through the village, but it means better connectivity which is always attractive for investors and investment should result in more jobs being available in the area. It is our role as councillors along with others such as the Parish Council to make sure that the village benefits from any developments whether FARRS or the golf developments and these are the conversations I have been having and will continue to have over the next year or so.

my attention along with the fact that there isn’t a crossing at all in the village. I was invited by the lollipop man in the village to see the problems that he has which was very useful. He has a really difficult job, due to some drivers being unwilling to stop even though it was clear that he had children who he needed to escort across the road safely. The Mayor’s 20mph schemes for all schools in the Borough, should make it safer – I will keep you informed about these plans. I will continue to meet with Highways as well as having conversations with the police to see what can be done.

Halloween activities 31st October will see the Right Up Our Street Halloween handmade parade in the village which will be fantastic for the village for people of all ages. Your help is needed to make all the elements for the parade, from painting things orange to creating big puppets, there is a job to suit everyone! There are a number of these sessions arranged – in October, 10th, 11th and 17th at Holmescarr Community Centre from 10-12.30 and 2-4 and on 28 October at the same times at Miners Welfare – all sessions are free. For more information please contact Katherine on 558065 or www.rightupourstreet.org.uk

How to Contact Me

We also saw where the IPort development will be; a couple of months ago I mentioned about the funding that will come into the village for training once the IPort is developed. This is still going to happen, but like all Section 106 monies the money only becomes available once development starts and with some agreements, once so much of the development has taken place or so many houses have been sold. For the IPort, the money will be at the beginning of development so I will keep you updated on progress.

I have 2 surgeries where you can come and see me, tell me your concerns about Doncaster council services, tell me what needs improving or I can assist with individual problems that you have with DMBC services. If you have a problem or complaint that is not the responsibility of Doncaster Council, your MP Caroline Flint would be able to assist with these issues. Caroline also has a surgery in Rossington at Miners Welfare. Please ring 01302 623330 to find out about the surgeries, or to discuss your concerns.

Speeding and accidents

Last Tuesday of every month – 3.15 – 4.45pm at the Children’s Centre, Grantham Street

Concerns about the increasing number of accidents on or near the dual carriageway and the amount of speeding is another area that has come to my attention. The Highways team have said that they will look at how signage and road markings can be improved. Speeding on many roads including Littleworth, Sheepbridge, and West End Lane are long standing concerns that residents have brought to

2nd Friday of every month – 4.45 – 5.30 at Miners Welfare and then from 6 – 6.30pm at Rossington Youth Club Tel: 07976896563/01302 710251: Twitter @CllrRachaelB : Email: Rachael.blake@doncaster.gov.uk Best wishes

HOME OWNERS AGED 50+ Protect your home from future Care Home fees “We’ve worked hard and saved all our lives, why should the Local Authority get it all?”

Does this sound familiar? “ We have made our Wills leaving everything to each other then to the children” These are known as ‘Mirror Wills’. Sounds reassuring enough doesn’t it! But your children could in fact end up with very little or even nothing at all. The main reason for this is your surviving spouse requiring residential care when you are no longer here to look after them. Although the possibility of care may seem a long way off, there are steps your should take now to protect your home.

Care Costs If your surviving spouse has to go into care, they will have to use all their assets to pay for their care until they get down to their last £14,250. It is therefore not a good idea to leave your half share of the home in your Will to your surviving partner. The answer is to make new Property Trust Wills. You may be unaware that legislation is already in place for you to take advantage of these types of Wills. Our free information pack tells you all you need to know about protecting your home from future care charges and also includes details of our special ‘Bloodline Trust Wills’ which prevent your children and grandchildren from losing their inheritance due to a child’s divorce, remarriage or financial difficulties.

Also available: APRIL KING are your local specialists and most of our clients come to us having already made ‘Mirror Wills’. Rather than leaving everything to each other, you and your spouse (or partner) leave your respective share of your home to the children in Trust but say that they cannot have it whilst the surviving spouse/ partner is still alive. This half would then NOT be included in any future means test calculations. The surviving spouse is free to sell their share of the home, raise cash or move house. Your children are powerless to intervene but simply have to wait for their inheritance, as they would have done under your old ‘Mirror Will’.

Do you qualify?

Rossington Community Library Will users of the Library please note the following changes. Library opening hours are now:

Luke is going for gold! Luke Ashby of Auckley, Doncaster has been selected to represent England at the ICO Kick Boxing World Championships in Stuttgart, Germany being held between 22nd – 26th October 2015.

Monday - 10am to 4pm Tuesday - 10am to 5pm Wednesday - 10am to 4pm Thursday - 10am to 1pm Friday - 10am to 1pm. New volunteers are always welcome.

Despite being just 8 years old Luke recently passed his 1st Dan Black Belt. He has been competing in tournaments all over the UK for just over 18 months now and this year become both a British and European Champion at his weight category. He is a great asset to Team England and is a potential medal winner for his country. However, this is an amateur sport and all competitors have to be self-financed. Competing in competitions across the country on a weekly basis is a costly pastime, but more so to attend the World Championship where each competitor has to raise they own air fares / accommodation in order to attend. Any financial support you can offer will be greatly appreciated by all involved and there are lots of sponsorship opportunities available that we would love to discuss with anyone interested. Hopefully the opportunity to support a local lad flying the flag for Doncaster appeals, I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Clare Ashby – contact at ashandclare@ymail.com T 14

And so to bed…. The subject of beds has cropped up in our clinic several times recently with the most common question being “Do you think it’s my bed causing the problem [with my back/neck]”. Here are some tips to help you decide if, indeed, your bed could be creating issues for your musculoskeletal system… • If your mattress is more than 7 years old then it’s time to assess whether it’s still doing it’s job…log on to The Sleep Council website and take their quick mattress MOT test. • Don’t take too much notice of manufacturer’s product descriptions – this is unregulated. For example, the use of the term ‘orthopaedic’ generally just means extra firm. • There is no right or wrong when it comes to mattress firmness. Either extreme is unlikely to be comfy. Your mattress should be supportive enough to take the weight of your body without sagging, but firm enough for you to turn with ease. • A quick indicator to check if the firmness of the mattress is suitable for you is to lie down on your back and slide your hand between the mattress and your lower back. If the mattress is too hard, the gap will be large…too soft and it will be difficult to push your hand through.

One in three women is affected at some point by bladder, pelvic floor or prolapse symptoms. Often very distressing, these problems WILL NOT improve without action & can get worse as you get older.

Ask for Jenny Blizard or Kate Stower who are specialists in Women’s Health Physiotherapy including bladder / bowel problems, ante-natal and post natal care, sexual problems, pelvic & lower back pain

garden view

Terrific Tulips If I could grow only one type of flower then it would have to be the tulip. Harbingers of warmer days, the choice available is mind-blowing. There are frilly parrot tulips bearing fringed petals, sturdy fat-flowered types and graceful plants with lily-like blooms. They are also tremendously accommodating. You can plant them much later than daffodils and narcissi because they don’t need to start producing roots so early. In fact you can plant them from now until Christmas! My mother uses them as annuals and rips them up after flowering but I can’t bear to do that so I plant them deeply and leave them in the garden where they return happily year on year. If you want to use them as disposable bedding you only need to plant them about 10cm / 4 inches deep. If, like me, you treat them as old friends then plant them 23cm / 9 inches deep and they won’t disappoint you.

Rossington Today

By Rachel Leverton

Pot Luck Tulips are wonderful in containers. As a guide, a 25-30cm / 10-12 inch diameter pot will accommodate a dozen bulbs. For a larger 47.5cm / 19inch pot use 16 –18 bulbs. Cover the base with at least 5cm / 2inches of drainage material and 12cm / 5 inches of soil-less multi-purpose compost. Lay the bulbs in an inner and outer circle making sure that no bulb touches either another, or the outside of the pot. Fill the pot with compost to within 2.5cm / 1 inch of the rim. I finish pots off with strips of daisies or anemones planted around the edge in colours which complement the tulips. Water everything in but shelter the pot from heavy rain so it doesn’t become waterlogged and never water in frosty weather. I use water-retaining granules mixed in with the compost. These help to maintain soil moisture throughout the dormant season. Feed the daisies or anemones throughout their flowering season in the Autumn and the Spring and you should be rewarded with a beautiful display sometime in April or May. I love to plant containers of tulips by my front door. I have a red door so choose something like Tulipa ‘Apeldoorn’ in yellow and red varieties underplanted with red daisies. If you have a blue or green door you might like to try Tulipa ‘Angelique’ (pale pink) underplanted with pink anemones. Or how about Tulipa ‘Bleu Aimable’ a brilliant purple/blue variety?

Welfare Cricket Ground vandalism It took 6 of members of Rossington Cricket Team an hour and half to get the damaged covers on to protect the wicket from the elements. On Saturday morning the 12th September it was checked again and found smashed beer bottles, fag packets and cans everywhere. Rossington’s 1st XI could win the league if they win the last game of the season, but it’s possible the wicket is so badly damaged the game may be cancelled. If you see or hear anything to do with this or any future incidents please report it. T

Tickhill & District Lions Club Our ‘Summer Bash’ evening of music and food in marquees at the Scarbrough Arms on 26th June made a final profit of ÂŁ987 but the Lions have decided that the plans of the Doncaster Detection Trust are so important to every person in south Yorkshire and Bassetlaw that we should make this figure up to ÂŁ5000 from funds accumulated.

raises funds towards administration costs like paying for refreshments for visitors. The winner is asked to nominate a charity to which our club makes a donation of ÂŁ50 if agreed by the members present. Two recent nominations agreed have produced cheques for the Cancer Detection Trust so that a total of ÂŁ6164 has been donated in recent weeks.

Additionally a local Tickhill ‘Friend of Lions’ 69 year old John Godfrey decided he would use his love of swimming to try to raise funds for the same charity. Known to a number of groups through his love of quizzes he expressed an aim to swim 100 lengths of the Edlington Sports Centre pool in an hour. With the swim timed and lengths counted by Lion Dave Fenton, John achieved his target in 59mins on 28th July. He did very well collecting ÂŁ964 which Tickhill Lions decided to add ÂŁ100 to taking him over the thousand. John wishes to thank the staff at the pool for their hospitality and all those who have supported his swim.

Methodist Minister

Dear Friends, Current events in Europe and other parts of the world have made me to reflect on the issue of compassion in my life again. During the times of reflection, one question that kept coming to me was, ‘how do I become more compassionate in this world?’ One of the answers was to look at the lives of compassionate people like Ghandhi, Mother Theresa and Jesus Christ. As I looked at these lives, I had to settle on some good reasons. Jesus, for example, was passionate about people, loved God’s creation, and was generous. He also had a painful life to the extent that the Roman soldiers killed him. In addition, Jesus did not blame people, was sensitive, and sacrificed his life for people. I concluded that it takes a lot of sacrifice to be compassionate. One writer has defined compassion as the ‘quality of being able to get to the skin of another’. Compassion is very demanding and it involves being with the person or doing something for the person.

I am not suggesting that you physically go to the Mediterranean or the plains and hilly countryside of Europe to walk with people from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and other parts of Africa. Neither am I suggesting that you leave your comfy homes and sleep rough with others on the streets of Doncaster. Some people choose to do that and is commendable. However, most of you may have been part of the backlash of responses that forced the Prime Minister to make a U-turn on this issue of refugees a few days ago. I wonder whether we may need to do more to ‘get to the skin’ of these innocent and weary people. To remind you again, sacrifices come in many forms – financially, emotionally and physically. As a member of a community that has so much to spare as compared to the refugees, the homeless

people on our streets, and the poor people living in parts of our communities, I wonder if it is time for you to consider the words of the Theologian John Wesley:

“Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can”. There are many ways in doing ‘all the good you can’. One way is to respond to the appeals from the churches and other agencies, as well as the media, and ask God to direct your heart and mind as to the right way to act. To conclude, I wonder if you may want to pray with me the following prayer of compassion by Henri Nouman: “Dear God, I am so afraid to open my clenched fists! Who will I be when I have nothing left to hold on to? Who will I be when I stand before you with empty hands? Please help me to gradually open my hands and to discover that I am not what I own, but what you want to give me.” Amen. Have a blessed month. Yours sincerely, Rev. Dr. Frank Okai-Sam Methodist Minister for Adwick-le-Street, Auckley, Bawtry, Harworth, Rossington, Sprotbrough, Sprotbrough Road and Tickhill Tel: 01302857952 E-mail: frank.okai-sam@methodist.org.uk T

GET A FREE PATH OR PATIO OR WE WILL PAY YOUR VAT WHEN YOU PURCHASE A RESIN DRIVE

WHY SHOULD YOU INSTALL A RESIN DRIVE? That’s simple; our product naturally drains water through the finished surface which means no more puddles. It is also resistant to frost attack, hence giving it all round better traction for tyres and making it better for walking on. Last but not least its up to 10 times more eco friendly than concrete. And don’t forget, we have a great colour range to choose from to give it your personal touch!
