‘Spring Clean’ your way to a healthier happier summer!

by Julie Hitchings Nutritionist at Inspiring Health Would you like to achieve your goals and feel healthier, lighter and happier?

Cleaning up your diet in time for summer could lead you along the pathway to success.

We are constantly bombarded with advertisements promoting processed food that bears no resemblance to the original healthy, meal that it is replacing. Pre-made sources, meals and snacks are full of chemicals, flavourings, adulterated fats and sugar; a prime recipe for sub-optimal health and disease.

Here are 6 simple steps for you to follow Prepare and stock up on real food. Clean out your fridge and cupboards and stock up on fresh food in its most natural form.

Eat a rainbow of colours. Choose from a variety of different veg each week. Don’t stick to the same favourites.

Cut out wheat, dairy and sugar. This may be hard, but if you want to ditch the bulging stomach, these offenders need to go.

Eat only 3 meals a day Don’t snack and don’t overfill your plate.

No fad diets and don’t count calories Sugar-laden drinks. Alcohol, fruit juices, flavoured water and fizzy drinks, all need to go. Focus on water and herb teas.

Call Inspiring Health on 01326 212112 to book a consultation with a Nutritionist and find out how to put together a healthy menu that suits you and your family. www.inspiringhealth.org.uk.

When should your child start to play tennis? Is kicking a ball around at a young age all they are capable of? At what age will they be able to understand all the rules and be able to use these skills?

Good tennis coaching is not about how to hit a ball. It is about teaching children how to use their bodies in more efficient ways. Agility, balance, coordination and speed are the building blocks for all sports.

At The Falmouth Tennis Company we teach children reception skills through a variety of fun games. These skills are transferable to a multitude of other activities.

Then we concentrate on projection skills through more games making sure they learn to use all their muscles to throw, hit and kick reducing the chance of injury down the line.

Then we put it all together and teach them the rules and let them play.

We run group classes for different ages all through the week and match play sessions on Saturdays where they come and play for free.

When do we start them? 3 years of age! www.falmouthtenniscompany.com

CORNWALL COUNTRY LINK

A social group that is cheap to join, has a large mixed membership and has up to 150 different events a year, does such a group exist?

Well yes it does and it’s been in Cornwall for thirty years. Cornwall Country Link was initially formed when a group of Young Farmers, due to age, had to leave their clubs and the consequence being they lost their social life. So they formed Country Link and there are clubs all over the Country.

Our group in Cornwall has a membership of 100 people and they are from a variety of backgrounds and not all are associated with the countryside. One does need to have a love for our Cornish land and its heritage because a lot of our pursuits are focused out in the countryside but that’s not a pre requisite. The activities are organised by our members for our members and take many different forms. We do pride ourselves on the variety of each quarter’s programme.

There are usually 2-­‐3 events each week and these vary from a Sunday lunch at a local pub followed by a walk, it could be a visit to a theatre, maybe a night out dancing or a lecture at the Maritime museum in Falmouth. The events are many and varied and we very much welcome members to put on things that they like doing and others can discover new pursuits.

We also enjoy large formal functions, this past year we had a summer Ball in a very nice hotel near Exeter. Over 60 members attended and spent the weekend at the hotel, we had walks in the area, a visit to Exeter and the Ball on the Saturday evening. It was a posh frock and black tie affair and a chance to put on your fine clothes and have a lovely evening. We also try hard to raise monies for various charities.

Only just recently held was our Christmas party in a hotel at Newquay. Again it was a very well attended function and another opportunity to put on your smart clothes and have a very pleasant evening.

As a national organisation we have two National Weekends in different parts of the country, the host clubs organise everything and our members enjoy these events very much, they are always very popular and the tickets sell quickly. If you are travelling across the country you could always take the opportunity to visit another club in that part of the country and make new friends.

Please visit the clubs website and discover for yourself all of the fun activities that we get up too throughout the year. www.country-­‐link.org.uk We look forward and warmly welcome new members to Country Link, come and give us a try before joining.

Messy Church Celebration February 2016 The theme of the February Messy Church Celebration was “Sharing a special meal together”. After the introduction and welcome, the Open the Book team gave a dramatic presentation of Jesus sharing his last meal with his disciples. The activities which followed linked sharing special meals with the Passover, when symbolic food is eaten to remember the Exodus of the Children of Israel from Egypt.

The Filling Station Meeting on 15th February was graced by seventy-five people who once again were well looked after by the warm welcome of the Penmorvah Hotel, excellent worship music from the Budock group, a life changing story from Ben and a talk from Lucy Larkin.

Lucy gave us an insightful and encouraging talk on' The Glory of the Cross'. Although it concentrated on the cross, Jesus is the real central figure of the story.

How can an instrument of incredible savagery, cruelty and torture be glorious? There are many things in Christianity that don't seem to make sense at first sight, things that are incongruous, paradoxical and mysterious. Christianity is not a straight line of simple facts – some things have deep meaning. It takes a good teacher to try to bring a deeper awareness. Lucy is such a one.

The cross was not used by early Christians, they were too close to its present terror, it only became common as a symbol once the Emperor Constantine used it on his soldiers' shields at the battle of the Milvian Bridge in 312AD Lucy gave a short history of Jesus, showing how he understood the tangles of humanity with all our flaws. He healed people and set them free. He taught them and fed them. He then called them to a better way. In doing all this good work he gained the enmity of the authorities whom he seemed to be challenging. Eventually this led to his trial under Pontius Pilate and after a vicious flogging, to his death on the cross.

So far, so human, but Jesus was also God in the flesh which comes out so plainly in the Bible.

The whole episode of the cross boils down to one word. Love. As St John writes “ God so loved the world, that he gave his only son so that we might live”. Love is the heart beat of the universe and we join in that continual love song when we pray.

Christians, for millennia have tried to make sense of the cross. It is like a diamond, multifaceted and profound and even then we make approximations at its full mystery and depth.

On the cross is the defeat of evil, of death itself.

Through the cross people are redeemed and reconciled, brought back to God. Through the cross people are saved, they go free.

On the cross, Christ took our sin and our blame. He paid the price for what we have done.

Though we see only in part, we can still see the wonder and even glory of the cross of Jesus and know that it was not the end, as our Saviour still guides and comforts us.

The evening ended with prayer and worship. Everyone went home joyously, filled with the Spirit.

The activities included: Making flat bread which reminded everyone how during the original Passover there was no time to wait for yeast to rise, so bread had to be made as quickly as possible.

Making sour faces, which we all did when we tasted the bitter herbs and lemons. This is a part of the Jewish Passover meal to remind people of the hard times during the Exodus.

Assembling prayer cubes and writing Grace Prayers on them to remind us to thank God for our food.

Printing potato cuts on place mats to celebrate sharing meals together.

Making a door and its frame through which we all walked on our way to our food to remind us of our own homes.

We then enjoyed a meal together of Matzos and toppings followed by fresh fruits, before our final prayers and song.

A big Thank You to everyone who made the afternoon such a lovely time of Christian family fellowship.

The next Messy Church is on Sunday 20th March at 4pm. St Francis Primary School, Falmouth.

To be shortlisted is a substantial achievement, so if you know any of them, please congratulate them!"

The Cornwall Teacher Awards have been judged by national education experts.

The awards will be hosted by ex Treviglas College Headteacher, Helen Mathieson and there will be a keynote speech by the UK's most famous headteacher, Vic Goddard, star of Channel4's Educating Essex.

Nikki Baron said; "We have had so much support from Cornwall's education community, and from further afield -­‐ it's been a brilliant experience so far, and we're really looking forward to the event on the 15th April."

Thousands raised for local charities with StreetSmart The Cornish contingency of a national campaign has raised over £3,000 for local homelessness charities thanks to the generosity of the county's diners.

Ten of the region's top restaurants participated in the StreetSmart campaign by adding an optional £1 onto customer's bills during November and December of last year.

The restaurants involved in supporting the campaign across Cornwall were No.4 Peterville in St Agnes, Halsetown Inn near St Ives, Old School Bar and Kitchen in Mount Hawke, the Beach Club restaurant at Carbis Bay Hotel, Spa & Estate, Archie Browns in Truro and Penzance, Kota and Kota Kai in Porthleven, The Square at Porthleven, and The Boathouse in Falmouth.

All administration costs are paid by national StreetSmart sponsor Deutsche Bank, ensuring that 100% of the £3,000 raised in Cornwall, stays in Cornwall.

The money raised will now be split equally amongst the three nominated charities -­‐ St Petroc's Society, the Cornwall Women's Refuge Trust and Cornish branches of Foodbank.

For further information, or if you are interested in finding out about taking part this year please visit www.streetsmart.org.uk APRIL 2016

‘The most exciting development in renewable energy since the solar panel' goes public.

Award-­‐winning South West based company, WITT Ltd, is to change the face of renewable energy forever with its ground-­‐breaking new energy harvesting technology -­‐ and launched with its Crowdcube raise on 7th March.

Home Help Services Cleaning & Shopping Gardening & Pressure washing Decorating Form filling, Admin. & Advice Transport for: Appointments, Shops, Etc And More – just ask!

The WITT is the only device in the world that can capture energy from all movement and turn it into electricity. No other energy system can exploit the full spectrum of movement, enabling it to harvest power from water (sea, river or tidal), wind, human or animal motion.

"The WITT is the most exciting development in the renewable energy sector since the solar panel," says WITT Chairman, Admiral Sir James Burnell-­‐Nugent KCB, CBE.

On 7th March 2016, WITT Ltd launched a £750,000 equity raise through the world's leading crowdfunding platform, Crowdcube, to take the WITT technology into manufacturing for its first application -­‐ the 200-­‐Watt Marine WITT.

The Marine WITT will provide autonomous power for marine applications, such as large-­‐scale survival units, desalination, offshore fish farms and a range of products that need a constant power source, even in the harshest of environments. As well as providing the first units for sale it will also establish the WITT's capability to generate large-­‐scale ocean power.

The WITT's multi award winning technology is patented and has the support of global partners Schaeffler, Ricardo, and Gibbs Gears. It also has the support of the Universities of Bristol, Plymouth and Southampton. In addition, WITT won ‘pitch@palace' in October 2015 after HRH Duke of York saw the technology at Plymouth University's wave tank.

The inventor of the WITT, Martin Wickett said: "The WITT's key advantages over other wave energy converters, or WECs, are that it captures energy from chaotic motion, in any combination -­‐ clockwise, anti-­‐clockwise, up and down, and back and forth (6 degrees) and the sealed unit greatly reduces maintenance costs. We believe this makes it the optimum technology to generate renewable electricity from the sea."

Having the support of global key partners with expertise in designing and deploying wave power technologies at sea will allow WITT Ltd to put the technology into action and to bring robust products to market.

WITT's chairman, Admiral Sir James Burnell-­‐Nugent KCB, CBE, former Commander-­‐in-­‐Chief of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines, said: "There is movement all around us and being able to convert energy from that movement into usable electric power is a truly ground-­‐breaking development.

"The constant movement of the sea means that WITT's pioneering technology has immediate applications in the maritime sector and WITT has secured global support to bring this technology to market. The technology is remarkable, the opportunities unbounded, the potential as great as one's imagination."

WITTs can be built from centimetres to metres and could be used in huge range of applications, not only in marine but in all areas where there is motional energy. In the future, WITTs could collect Natural Occurring Motional Energy (NOME) from humans or animals to power a wide range of consumer items as a portable power solution.
