Broadwater Pages - January 2015 • www.broadwaterpages.co.uk BP 3 bp Local News Volunteering for St Barnabas House – give something back and gain so much in return Rosemary Gillard Bereavement Volunteer Shaun Dicker Fleet Maintenance Officer Did you know patients are never charged for their care at St Barnabas House and the government funds less than 25% of our running costs? We therefore rely heavily on the generosity of the local community and volunteers. By becoming a volunteer you can learn new skills, brush up on your existing ones and be welcomed as part of our team. We aim to make your volunteering experience a valuable and rewarding one, because our volunteers really are the life-blood of our organisation in so many ways. There are a wide variety of roles that you can get involved with. Read on to find out about some roles we have a particular need for: Is tinkering with cars is your thing? As a Fleet Maintenance Volunteer, you will help keep our minibuses and cars kept in pristine condition and assist with all the regular safety checks. Our Fleet Maintenance Officer, Shaun Dicker, is looking for volunteers to help him on a regular basis for around four hours per shift. He said, “This is a highly valuable role as our transport fleet provides vital support to our patients, enabling them to travel to and from the hospice, and to our clinical teams caring for patients in their own homes.” Do you have a listening ear? Our Bereavement Volunteers offer support to bereaved family and friends of patients who have received care at St Barnabas House. Listening to people and being able to empathise with them is an important skill. Rosemary Gillard is one of our Bereavement Visitor volunteers. She said, “After suffering loss of loved ones in my life, I approached St Barnabas to offer my help and was trained as a bereavement visitor. The training was enjoyable and thought provoking. Now my volunteering role is underway, I get a great amount BP 4 Dorren Dunning Reception of satisfaction knowing I can be of help to someone who is struggling with loss. I meet clients mostly at home, or sometimes at the hospice, and I thoroughly enjoy it.” If you’re looking for more of a hands-on and flexible role, we need volunteers to work on an ad-hoc basis to help cover our reception and coffee shop during bank holidays, and for volunteer holiday and sickness cover. One of our fantastic bank volunteers is Doreen Dunning. She said, “I have great respect for the wonderful work St Barnabas House does in the community. I really feel as a volunteer that I’m part of a special team. I also enjoy the variety of helping out in various departments when they are short staffed.” If having direct contact with patients and their carers in their own homes appeals, then becoming a Community Companion is a special role that may suit you. Isolation is a big issue for many people coping with life-limiting illnesses and their carers. You will be helping people at a very difficult time in their lives by providing social and practical support during a weekly two hour visit. For this role we have two mandatory training days. Community Companion, Rita Fellows, a 75 year old grandmother from Rustington, has been visiting Mr Arthur Shaw, 88 from East Preston since December 2013. Rita said, “I absolutely love being Arthur’s Community Companion. He normally just wants to sit and chat during my visits, which we both look forward to. He is a wonderful person and has remained very positive during his illnesses and personal challenges. “His courage touches everyone he meets. We get on so well and have a lot of laughter and I have heard his life story. I have received full training and am really well supported by the team at St Barnabas Broadwater Pages - January 2015 • www.broadwaterpages.co.uk bp Local News House. I would highly recommend this role to anyone who is looking for a really rewarding volunteering opportunity and can spare just two or three hours per week.” an application pack. To find out more about volunteering in other areas, please visit www.stbh.org.uk/volunteering or call us, we’d love to hear from you if you’d like to help in any way. A variety of days and times are available for the above roles to suit you.

Probably more than you realise. As a nation, we consume tons of them every day and whether they are ground to make our bread, mushed to accompany our chips or sprinkled on our burger bun, seeds play an important role in our diet … as well as in our garden! Most of the seed heads that were left over from autumn have now fallen over, disintegrated, or been eaten by hungry birds, so as part of my ‘outdoor housework’ I’m cutting them down to ground level before the new growth begins to emerge next month. The stately seed heads of Stipa gigantea looked fantastic for such a long period of time, as did the erect stems of Calamagrostis ‘Karl Forester’, but even these have been defeated by the wind. It may be cold outside, but now is the perfect time for planning what to grow this year, from seed of course! Over recent years the popularity of growing your own vegetables has meant that veg seed sales have overtaken those of traditional flowers, but you really can’t beat the satisfaction of plants from seed. The first plants I ever grew were Snap Dragons. I was fifteen, and I found the packet in the back of a drawer (presumably they had been stuck to a box of cereal at some stage). I diligently followed the instructions for sowing and placed them on top of my wardrobe (I’m not quite sure why I did that). What happened next really was a miracle. They germinated! It was hard to believe that the old seed, uneven layer of compost, wardrobe location and over watered soil, produced a rash of new seedlings. It wasn’t long before they had grown to around 2 inches high and bent towards the light, narrowly avoiding the artex ceiling! I potted them on and they produced the most beautiful range of colours all summer long, and that was the moment I became hooked on gardening. It wasn’t really a surprise that they germinated, as that’s what seeds are designed to do. They can survive in their dormant state for years, and because there are often more seeds per packet than you know what to do with, I always sow just a few more than I need and return the rest to a sealed container in the fridge. Stored like this they keep for years. To give them the best start in life, most seeds require just a tray of compost and some warmth. Large seeds should be covered over with compost, but small seeds left uncovered as they often don’t have enough energy to push new leaves through the soil. Prick out singly once large enough to handle and grow on somewhere frostfree, before gradually hardening off ready for life outdoors. Until next time, happy winter gardening. Lee BP 6 Broadwater Pages - January 2015 • www.broadwaterpages.co.uk Broadwater Pages - January 2015 • www.broadwaterpages.co.uk BP 7 YS Book Reviews Book Reviews Great reads for January Bodies of Light by Sarah Moss Pub Granta £7.99 Ally and her sister May don’t do many of the things that girls of their class do. Instead of learning to embroider, or play the piano, they learn plain cooking and sewing, Latin and Greek. And when they are old enough, they accompany their Mamma – herself daughter to a stern, evangelical Mamma - to her Home for the poorest and most degraded women of the Manchester working districts and slums, for she is determined that her girls will be useful and conscientious members of society. Ally, in particular, must work especially hard, for she is destined to be one of the first qualified female doctors, and must guard against her tendency to nerves and hysteria, or her Mamma will be displeased… Written in spare, poetic prose which renders the historical detail clear and fresh, this is a novel which illuminates the difficulties faced by women, both these particular women at this particular point in history, and issues common to many women through time. It is also an exploration into dynamics within a family, of motherhood and its difficulties and dysfunctions, and the legacies bequeathed from one generation to the next. involving human interest story. Scarlet Ibis is the powerful story of young Scarlet who, with her autistic younger brother Red, dreams of a visit to Trinidad to see the beautiful Scarlet Ibis, and, after an accident which parts her from him, struggles to reunite her family. Suitable for children aged 10 upwards. House Held Up By Trees by Ted Kooser and Jon Klassen Walker Books £6.99 Written by the Pulitzer Award winning poet Ted Kooser and illustrated in Jon Klassen’s distinctive style, this haunting picture book charts the effect of the passing of time and the power of nature on a house and the family who live in it. Lovely. Abbattoir Blues by Peter Robinson Pub Hodder and Stoughton £7.99 For those who enjoy good solid detective fiction here is Peter Robinson’s latest book in the DCI Banks series, taking its title from the Nick Cave album. Rural crime seems a little trivial for our popular detective and his team as they are tasked to investigate the theft of a tractor and then some possible blood stains in a disused aircraft hangar, but soon the tension cranks up and we are in familiar thriller territory. Devotees of this series may find the characterisations a little formulaic now, but for those who dip in and out, this well plotted novel is just the thing to read on a cold winter’s evening. Scarlet Ibis by Gill Lewis Pub OUP £6.99 Gill’Lewis So many booksellers that I meet mention children’s writer Gill Lewis as their favourite. She draws much inspiration from the people and the animals that she has encountered in her life and travels as a vet, and her award winning novels Sky Hawk and Moon Bear reflected her great passion for animals in the wild. This new book, now in paperback, will be loved by children who enjoy a wildlife theme which contains an BP 8 Broadwater Pages - January 2015 • www.broadwaterpages.co.uk Broadwater Pages - January 2015 • www.broadwaterpages.co.uk BP 9 BP 10 Broadwater Pages - January 2015 • www.broadwaterpages.co.uk bp Local News Finally...Broadwater has it’s very own Chiropractic Centre and it’s looking very special indeed...

Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes Serves 4 Ingredients 500g/1lb very small fresh clams, or a small jar of clams in brine 3 tbsp olive oil 1-2 garlic cloves, finely chopped 1 tsp anchovy paste (optional) 2 tbsp finely chopped parsley 400g/14oz canned chopped tomatoes Salt and freshly ground black pepper 450g/1lb dried spaghetti Method If using fresh clams tap each one sharply and discard any which stay open. Scrub the remaining clams. Add the clams to 2-3 tbsps water in a heavy-bottomed pan. Cover with a lid and cook over a medium heat for 3-4 minutes, or until all the shells have opened. If using fresh clams discard any which have not opened after five minutes. Remove the clam flesh from the shells (you can leave a few in their shells for garnish) and dip them quickly into their cooking water to rinse off any sand. Strain the juices from the pan through a sieve lined with muslin or a sheet of kitchen paper and reserve the liquid. Heat the olive oil in a pan over a medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and fry until it begins to turn pale gold in colour, then add the anchovy paste (if using) and parsley and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the chopped tomatoes and the strained clam juices (if you are using a jar of clams, you can use some or all of the brine from the jar, but be careful it doesn’t make the sauce too salty). Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes. Cook the spaghetti according to packet instructions and drain. Just before serving add the clam flesh to the sauce and stir well. Mix the sauce into the cooked spaghetti. Serve garnished with parsley and any remaining clams in their shells.
