The Benefits of Exercise during Pregnancy By Bawtry Health & Fitness Studio
Louise from Tickhill asks: ‘How do I exercise during pregnancy?’ Regular, gentle exercise can be a great help during your pregnancy and the fitter you are the better you'll be at coping with the demands of a new born baby. Stretching and toning exercises such as Yoga and Pilates can help keep your body flexible and ready for labour. Plus, anything that gets your heart going is good for you and your baby's health as it pumps oxygen, blood and vital nutrients more efficiently around the body and to the womb. Unless you've been advised by your GP or midwife not to do any activity then it's a good idea to do something you enjoy. Of course, you have to be sensible and not push yourself too hard and keep away from those contact sports! Need running advice? www.metrestomiles.co.uk Tel 01427 872323 Need a Physio?

Hot on your heels….
Just over a month ago the dreaded Achilles heel was on everyone’s lips as it ended David Beckham’s hopes of competing in what would surely be his final World Cup. Suffering an Achilles rupture, Beckham is ruled out of play for 3 months as he rehabilitates the injury. So, what predisposes someone to Achilles rupture? The Achilles is the largest tendon in the body. Withstanding loads of up to 12 times body weight, the Achilles is the strongest and most powerful tendon, yet incorrect footwear, poor training techniques, and muscle imbalances all contribute to its downfall. Achilles pain should never be over-looked. It is important to seek advice early as symptoms can be easily treated and a rupture may be prevented. Achilles tendinopathy is common in middle-aged athletes and those increasing their activity levels dramatically. Symptoms to look out for include stiffness within the tendon following activity, progressing to soreness first thing in the morning and a gradual onset of activity limiting pain. Treatment may include ice, anti-inflammatories, ultrasound and physiotherapy. Locating the cause of the problem is key to resolution.

Mayflower Animal Sanctuary
Spring is well and truly with us and the sanctuary is bursting with colour. All the buds are out on the trees and the daffodils are looking pretty. Isn't it amazing when everything looks so different when the sun shines. Even the dogs look happier. We have recently had a member of the public bring an 8 month old puppy to us with very abnormal front legs which she is unable to walk on for more than a few steps. She is a beautiful girl called Belle. We are in the process of asking specialist vets to look at her and confirm whether anything can be done to help this lovely puppy. We will update you with this story next month. You will be able to see photos of her on the website shortly. We are in desperate need of more funds for the charity in order that we can help more dogs like Belle. Vets bills are always a constant worry and we will be making a special appeal for donations specifically for her. Last month I talked about Zena the Rotti who came to us when her 9 puppies were 1 day old. Well they are doing really well and she is a brilliant mum even though she is a young dog herself. We have been lucky enough to have a lady come forward to volunteer at our shop in Manton for 2/3 days this means that we can be open for most of the week which is a real bonus. So a big thank you and we hope you enjoy volunteering for us. A big thank you too for the other ladies that have kept the shop running throughout the winter months. Our fund raising events calendar is overflowing at the moment, so again we are looking for volunteers to help. Whether it is on stalls at some events, or rattling buckets on street corners, or if you are a good organiser maybe you could get even more involved. One fund raiser which we all love is the Mayflower Sanctuary Summer Ball which takes place at The Olde Bell Hotel, Barnby Moor, on the 19th June tickets are ÂŁ35 each, its a fabulous venue with 4 course dinner and dancing and disco. Trax fm will be there too. Not forgetting the auction, there are some really wonderful prizes. Why not come along and support us we need to capitalise on this particular event and make it a night to remember. If you would like tickets please call me on 07840 203688 I will be happy to reserve them for you. Another event that must not be missed is The Staff Force Charity Day at Hayfield Lakes Finningley on the 6th June. This is a brilliant day out and will be supporting not only our Sanctuary but Help for Heroes and Phase Worldwide Charity. There will be a fishing match that will go on throughout the day, we will be organising a fun dog show. There is also football coaching for all you budding Beckhams. Vintage car show and Why not ask about our side stalls. There will be special guests from the specialist range of British Army / Ghurkhas and the Army logistic sports, post-op and team will be there setting up equipment on site for public viewing.

Anyone 4 Tennis?
Several years ago Bawtry had a thriving and successful Tennis Club. Sadly over recent years, due to the deterioration of the grass courts, the Club had to fold. Now we have a fantastic opportunity to have some brand new hard courts built to be situated at the Memorial Sports Ground in Bawtry. Under the proposed re-development of the Memorial Ground, plans have been drawn up to build a new pavilion with changing facilities for all the existing sporting clubs to use, an indoor sports hall and outdoor tennis courts. However to succeed in this venture we need your help. To obtain the relevant funding we have to establish how many people, of any age or playing ability, would use the tennis courts. We would therefore be most grateful if you would register your interest by either telephoning or e-mailing Anita or David Love on 01302 719169 or anita.love@tiscali.co.uk Please reply NOW! The possibility of playing tennis again in Bawtry lies in your hands!

No Cold Calling Zone The Tree Estate/Martin Lane/High Meadow Neighbourhood Watch, together with DMBC (through the Safer Neighbourhood Teams) & local police, have made the Tree Estate ONLY a No Cold Calling Zone for Commercial, Charity or Religious activities. Leaflet and Charity Bag deliveries are still allowed. We would like local business’s to be aware of this and that ignoring the clearly sighted signs will be followed up by Trading Standards and for repeat offenders the local Police. We hope that reputable firms will take note of the restrictions and in doing so make the rogues much more visible. We were impressed by the response of the Safer Neighbourhood Team in setting up the zone and also with the way Bawtry Town Council supported us with the cost of purchasing the 140 information packs for our residents and the 6 signs erected around the estate. Thanks to both for their support. As an organisation we fund ourselves by donations and an annual Plant & Cake Sale in May. This gives us sufficient funds for our needs and any excess is donated to Youth oriented activities within Bawtry. Last year we supported the Scouts, BARS, Bawtry Junior Football and Junior Cricket.

Bawtry Phoenix Theatre 15th to 22nd May - Blithe Spirit, a comic play by Noel Coward. The play concerns socialite and novelist Charles Condomine (played by Phil Healing) who invites the eccentric medium and clairvoyant, Madame Arcati (Jane Wheatley) to his house to conduct a séance, hoping to gather material for his next book. The scheme backfires when he is haunted by the ghost of his annoying and temperamental first wife, Elvira (Helen Shepherd), following the séance. Elvira makes continual attempts to disrupt Charles's marriage to his second wife, Ruth (played by Rebecca Fowler), who cannot see or hear the ghost. The seven strong cast is completed by Natalie Young in the role of Edith, Tony Abbott as Doctor Bradman, and Liz Atkinson as Mrs Bradman. Performances start at 7:30 pm. Tickets are available from the SPAR on Station Rd, Bawtry, priced £7 (£6 for concessions) and £12 for the buffet evening performance on Saturday 22nd.

This month there’s also a note of congratulations for Doncaster Concert Band one of our members, Lion Don Bullock who has now been a member of Tickhill & District Lions for 25 years! By now there must be literally hundreds if not thousands of people out there who have benefitted from the hard work you’ve put in. So on their behalf, thanks for all your hard work so far Don. Another thank you this month for all our guests who attended our Sportsmen’s Dinner at Doncaster Golf Club on the 14th of April. It was a fundraising event to be proud of, even if we do say so ourselves. Our guest star speaker ex-England cricketer and England Test Selector Geoff Miller, was superb, and lived up to all our high expectations. And even our very own Choirs of Sir Thomas Wharton School President Phil Thomas couldn’t out do comedian & Dinnington School Josh Daniels, but it wasn’t from a lack of trying!

SOROPTIMIST INTERNATIONAL of DONCASTER What a lovely evening was enjoyed by members and friends of the above association on the 13th March at the Doncaster Golf Club, when President Connie hosted the celebration of their 60th Charter Dinner, their Diamond Jubilee 1950-2010 One of the members made the cake representing many of the fund-raising or service events that the Club has undertaken. Soroptimist International work throughout the world working to improve human rights, the status of women, social justice and empowerment through economic independence and greater participation in decision making at all levels of society. The next major fund-raising event is a Concert at The Minster, St George’s Church, Doncaster on the 27th May 2010,at 7.30pm This will be in aid of Project Sierra, an International Project to bring practical help, food and education to women and children in that region. May we encourage you to join us, learn more about the Association and the Sierra Project whilst enjoying a glass of wine and listening to fine choirs, soloists and orchestral music. You can pay at the door and £5 will guarantee you an enjoyable evening, proceeds going to support the project. Val Mullins Get together is a really fun way to raise money and can be as big or as small as you like – whatever the idea, we’ve got the tools to inspire and help you. Why not Get dunking with a coffee (and biscuits!) morning, Get doing and organise a sponsored activity, Get dancing and keep your toes tapping or Get dressing with a fashion show, dress up (or down!) day? The money you raise could help us to transform the lives of thousands of blind and partially sighted people, like Bev Muldoon, a busy mum of five, whose guide dog Fifi has changed her world. It costs Guide Dogs £10 a day to support each guide dog partnership and there are currently over 4,500 guide dog owners in the UK, so every penny you raise is vital and could go towards helping someone living in your local community. Our new Get together fundraising pack is available free of charge. It’s packed full of practical information, how-to guides, posters and invites and will give you a real head start for organising a successful fundraising event. For more information or to order a fundraising pack, either fill in the form on the enclosed leaflet, register online at www.guidedogs.org.uk/gettogether call 0870 600 2323 or email gettogether@guidedogs.org.uk.

Tunnel Tech The new compost facility which was installed to reduce the environmental impact does not appear to have affected the frequency of the obnoxious smells which neighbouring communities have to suffer. It is important that Bassetlaw Council is made aware of these incidents. The officer to contact is: Principal Environmental Health Manager, Mr. Julian Proudman Tel. 01909 533171 email julianproudman@bassetlaw.gov.uk giving details of: · The date and time of the smell · Rate the smell on a scale of 1 to 10 , 10 being the most nauseous. · Brief weather information e.g. windy, rain, hot, cold, fog etc. Tunnel Tech should be monitoring environmental impact themselves and reporting to Bassetlaw.
