HAPPY 2015
TO ALL OUR READERS!!!
We hope you had a wonderful festive
season. As usual we all ate and drank
far too much. No regrets though - it
was a blast!
January is traditionally a month
when we start a diet and join a gym.
To help kick start this health drive
we have included some low calorie
(but tasty) recipes along with some
great advice about choosing a gym
(and sticking to it!).
As usual we have plenty of
competitions for you to enter, from
winning a £50 meal to theatre
tickets. Why not give it a go???
Happy Reading

The Biggest CV Mistakes
by Helen Jones
It’s very easy to make mistakes on your CV – after all there is no standard
format or written guide on how different companies like the information to be presented.
However I have detailed in this article those mistakes which I would deem to be unacceptable
whatever the role you are applying for:
TYPOS
These are one of the most common errors and so simple to avoid. Many companies implement
a three strike rule i.e make three typos in a nine page application and it will be rejected. This
applies to graduate application forms also.
This type of mistake can arise because candidates tweak their CVs from time to time and
suddenly the verbs don’t match up or a set of dates get knocked out of alignment.
Before submitting it, read your CV from bottom to top. Reversing the normal order helps you
focus on each line. Or alternatively have someone else proofread it for you.
LENGTH
If you’re a student looking for your first job out of University then stick to two pages max. Don’t
bore the reader with your whole life story. Stick to the points relevant to the job. The truth is that
most hirers inundated with applications will skim your CV in 6 seconds – so make it worth it.
One page for every ten years of work experience is enough. Make it crisp and focused and
convey the most important information about you. The sole purpose of a CV is to get you an
interview; not to convince a Hiring Manager to say yes. That’s what the interview is for.
FORMATTING
There are a lot of uncreative people attempting to catch the Hirer’s attention by trying to be
creative on their CVs. Colouring it pink or adding weird graphics has to be a fail. Your resume
should be clean and legible presented in a
professional font. White paper, black ink with
consistent spacing between lines, columns
aligned with your name and contact information
on every page.
LIES
Never lie on your CV. The other mistakes
mentioned above are instant failures, you may

get rejected but you can sort it out. When you

may be found out.

Abbey, Wollaton Hall, The Museum of
Nottingham Life at Brewhouse Yard, The

Friends of Wollaton Park was formally
founded in early 2014 by Steve Battlemuch
and a group of people who wished to help
support and maintain the park and hall for
the benefit of all visitors, whether local or
international. They recognise that the park’s
management cannot undertake everything,
so that recently, for example, with help from
the park rangers, volunteers made bird and
bat boxes to place around the park for the
benefit of wildlife. There have been a number
of other similar activities throughout the year,
such as cutting fallen trees to make insectfriendly habitats and clearing brush at the
lake so that visitors or photographers can
get a better view of the nesting herons.
Friends of Wollaton Park also aim to
represent users of the park and the local
community. They have given advice on
such things as the new children’s play-area,
with another play-area planned for disabled
children, plus the prospect of setting up a
cafe in the old football changing-rooms.
Coming up next on the agenda is the
renovation of the historical walled garden
which requires considerable reclamation.
Volunteers include local residents, local
councillors and university students. Make
a New Year resolution to become active
and make friends by volunteering your help
occasionally while getting to know Wollaton
Park and Hall intimately.
Friends of Wollaton Park committee meet
on the first Wednesday of every month and
invite anyone interested in joining to contact
[email protected] or telephone
Rob Kirkwood, Chair of the Group, on 07855151658. Volunteer activities in the park or
hall normally take place on the third Saturday
and fourth Thursday of the month (but NOT
in December). Everyone is welcome. Look
for us on Facebook.

NOTTINGHAM’S VERY OWN
SLICE OF ITALY
Situated on the edge of
the historic Lace Market
is Nottingham’s very own
slice of Italy, The Savai
Restaurant and Pizzeria.
Warmly welcomed by clearly
happy waiting staff, we were
particularly well looked after by
the brothers Mick and Tony who
opened the Savai in 1998.
The brothers, born and raised in
Nottingham from Italian parents,

Foggia, have created a little
piece of Italy. The comfortable
surroundings and furnishings
provide a warm and ambient
atmosphere and family
friendly too.
Italian classics and Savai specials
from £7.95.
All their offers are online which
currently includes 3 for 2 on
takeaway pizza!
The Savai caters for larger
parties, Christmas Parties/Menu,

including informal and formal sit
downs or stand up buffets,
and weddings.
Our three children were
encouraged to watch the pizza
chef at work who in turn was
obliging and made it a great
Our visit was complete when
experience for them. Our son
‘Padre’, the owner’s father
enjoyed a game of table football appeared from the kitchen to
in between courses, strategically
located in the restaurant not to
disturb other diners.
We sampled a selection of the
food available to order including
authentic stone baked pizza.
What came through was
the freshness and quality of
ingredients and the passion and
great taste that comes with true
authentic Italian cooking at its
best.
Starters are priced from £4.95,
pizza’s from £7.95, and a varied
selection of other mains including
check that our children had
enjoyed their meals. They had!
Boasting the first and oldest
pizzeria in Nottingham, a visit

food and a great family and
yet vibrant atmosphere is what
you crave. There is no wonder

new year, new start,
new you!
For many of us a new year brings
with it a fresh start and the
beginning of a healthy
approach to life.
Whether you want too loose weight, give
up smoking or spend more time with loved
ones, new year’s resolutions can help
focus us on reaching our desired outcome,
Ways � stay on track
1. WRITE IT DOWN
Concentrate on your aims and objectives
and formulate a plan. Use journals,
calendars and checklists to ensure you
stay focused.
2. STAY POSITIVE
Keep motivated through accessing support
networks-family and friends to support you
and each other. Access clubs and facilities
to help you feel supported. Use positive
language and enjoy the activities involved
to achieve your goal.
3. REVIEW PROGRESS
Evaluate your outcome by measuring
your success. If the goal is to loose weight
document your results and share the
good news.
however sometimes old patterns and
thought processes can set in.
To achieve optimum success it’s helpful
to look at your resolution from different
angles and to develop a framework to
support your goal.
4. BUILD ON YOUR SUCCESS
Look at ways in which keeping your
resolution helps you access other
successes. If your goal is to stop smoking
look at the health benefits it produces and
go on that bike ride!
5. CELEBRATE
Reward yourself when you achieve the
goals set. If you've saved money from
abstaining from alcohol, treat yourself to
a mini break with the money saved. If you
wanted to get fitter for the new year. Run
a marathon for charity. Give yourself a well
rewarded pat in the back!

Choosing the right gym for you – and sticking to it
Deciding to start at a new gym can be a daunting
prospect. Particularly if you have never used a
gym before or it has been a while since you last
went. You need to make sure the gym you pick
is suitable for you so you not only get the results
you are looking for but that you also enjoy your
gym experience which in turn will motivate you
to keep going.
The drop off rate of new gym members in the
first 3 months is over 70%. To avoid being part
of this statistic it is important you consider a few
things before signing up
1. Price: Probably the most important deciding
factor of which gym a person chooses. Do
they charge joining fees? (These are often
negotiable) Can you pay as you go or have a
trial period? Most gyms will also require you to
have an induction – will this be included in your
membership? If paying monthly make sure you
know exactly how long you are signing up for
and what the cancelation fees are. Do you get a
fitness assessment, training programs, personal
training sessions or access to fitness classes?
2. Location: When
will you go to the
gym, how often
and for how long?
The
gym
you
choose should be
convenient for you
to attend.
Think
about when you will
go. Before or after work? Then look for a gym
on your route to work. (Check opening times
too, if it doesn’t open until 9am you may not
be able to get in before work). If you are going
from home look for somewhere near to you. As
a general rule of thumb no more than 15 – 20
minutes travel, if it becomes a hassle to go it
becomes very easy to find excuses not to.
3. Equipment: What kind of workout are you
after? What are your goals? If you want to
get in to powerlifting are there enough weights,
if you want to run check how many treadmills
they have. Take a tour of the facilities, check the
equipment is in good working order and clean.
Visit at a time when you would be training to see
how busy it gets. There’s nothing worse than
spending half your workout waiting for a piece
of kit to become available.
4. Other amenities: Do you just want a gym or
would you like a pool or fitness classes included.
Often there are different levels of membership
available depending on the services you use.
Don’t get caught paying for use of a pool if you
never swim. What are the changing rooms
and showers like and what other facilities and
services do they offer?
5. Staff:
What
qualifications and
experience do the
staff have – you
don’t have to have a
fitness qualification
to work at a gym.
Are they motivated
to help you and give
advice, do they know other members by name?
Nothing can help you reach your goals more
than a knowledgeable member of staff giving
guidance and advice.
There are many options when it comes to
choosing a gym from high end spa hotel gyms
to basic budget gyms. Council gyms often
offer best value for money but may not have as
specialised equipment as a private gym. Shop
around and be picky. Don’t sign up to a contract
until you are sure. Visit several times and talk to
other members to get their opinions.
Finding the right gym for you is key to a healthy
lifestyle.

All creatures great
and small protected at
Wollaton Hall
Around 70% of Wollaton Deer Park has now been
designated a nature reserve – giving wildlife extra
protection.
The designation of Local Nature Reserve covering
areas of the woodland, heath and golf course,
will protect habitats for wildlife and will benefit
visiting nature lovers and members of the local
community by giving opportunities to get involved
and discover the wildlife on the site.
Approx 2000 healthy animals are
put to sleep every week in the UK
Low cost speying &
neutering schemes for
pets available in the
Nottingham area
[email protected]
reg charity: 702569
Wollaton Deer Park was chosen because it
offers a wide variety of habitats including mature
deciduous woodland, open water, bracken and
long grassland, all of which support and provide
homes for wildlife. Wollaton Park is well known
for its 280 strong deer herd but it is also home
to native and migratory birds, small mammals,
invertebrates, trees and plants. Many areas of
the reserve are inaccessible because they serve
as a refuge for the deer at times of breeding and
calving, and these provide untouched spaces for
wildlife to thrive.
Already a hugely
popular destination,
Wollaton
will
continue to provide
green
open
spaces for visitors
to enjoy as well
as hosting major
events such as
Splendour.

0115 837 6926
Portfolio Holder for Leisure and Culture,
Councillor Dave Trimble said: “The Wollaton
Park Local Nature Reserve is great news for the
local community and for the wildlife it contains.
Protecting natural green spaces is doubly
important because as well as providing a home
for wildlife, it will hopefully encourage children and
young people to get involved, take part in activities
and learn about the variety and enjoyment which
natural environments can provide. The Local
Nature Reserve will certainly enhance the green
space provided in Wollaton where people can
relax, play, meet friends and unwind; it’s a great
asset to the city of Nottingham.”

Bingham and District Choral Society
We wish everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year. Singing is excellent for your
health so why not join us! We start rehearsals on Wednesday 7th January, 7.00pm
at Carnarvon Primary School, Nursery Road, Bingham. This term we are preparing a programme of English Choral Anthems which we will sing at Southwell
Minster on Saturday 11th April at 7.30pm.This is a joint concert with Mansfield
Choral Society which will be conducted by Mansfield’s Musical Director, Peter
Siepmann and by Neville Ward. This is an important date for your diary as this
marks the final concert for our conductor, in this his retirement year.
If you like singing and would like to explore new music we are holding a Singing Workshop on Saturday 7th February 2015 at St Mary’s Church, Radcliffe
on Trent from 10.00am to 4.00pm when BOB CHILCOTT (ex King’s Singers) will
introduce us to some of his compositions including Five Days that Changed
the World. He conducts major choirs in Britain and Europe and is Principal
Guest Conductor of the BBC Singers. There are more details on our website
at binghamchoral.org.uk.
Many thanks to all those who supported us in November at Radcliffe Parish Church when we sang Sleepers, Wake by J S Bach and Mass in Time of War by
Joseph Haydn. The Bingham Concert Orchestra accompanied the choir in these
choral works and also played the Concerto for two violins by J S Bach. The concert
was conducted by Neville Ward who also directed our Christmas Carols in December. These two concerts were Neville Ward’s last concerts where he was able to
choose the works sung and direct the choir he has guided for so long.

Ella’s Teen Talk:
Handling Social Media
Here it is. It’s our time. Where teens
prove themselves good for something - social
media. It’s like second nature for most of us now
Ella Higginbotham aged 17
and we tweet, post and share on a daily basis.
We know the familiar sounds of ‘’you’re never
off your phone’’ or ‘’what do you do for all that
time on the laptop?’ but this is such an easy way to socialise and
talk to your friends with, let’s face it, very minimal effort.
Facebook is great for those moments where you look in your
suggested friends list and you see a name that you haven’t heard
since primary school- it’s a blast from the past! What a great way
to keep up to date with those people that you otherwise would
have lost contact with completely (which is great for nosy people
like me!). Facebook also makes you barely remember the days where
you had to text each of your friends with gossip or weekend plans
individually before you discovered the magical group chat. What a
lifesaver! Social networks really do help you to keep up to date
with just about anything.
However, this does come with one big downside- the horror
of the spoilers! When you miss the finale of your favourite
programme but log onto social media to be hit with the ending
that you’ve been waiting for all season! Then we very quickly
close the tab like it will somehow remove the thing we just
read from our memory! It’s possibly the biggest disappointment
we can experience so just as a warning, avoid all social media until
you have caught up!
While social media is great for us the majority of the time,
trying to explain the hashtags and shares to our parents and
grandparents can be a colossal task! Also, some parents are
obviously worried about strangers on the internet so just be
sensible and don’t give them a reason to worry- stick with
who you know! Be patient with those who might take
a little more practice in getting used to this way
Next
of socialising so that social media can
be enjoyed by everyone! Don’t forget

older members of the family may never
have had computers let alone mobile

phones when they were our age!! But do

remember, speaking with people face to
face and not behind a computer screen is

simple dating tips to keep you
safe while looking for love:
- Don’t reveal too much personal
information to someone you
don’t know or have just met
- If you’re going on a date, let
friends or family know your plans
and meet in a public place
- Avoid going home with
someone you don’t know very
well or inviting them back to your
place.
It’s not just meeting someone
new where personal safety
needs to be considered.
Domestic violence, physical and
emotional, is a serious issue. If
you feel frightened, threatened
or have been attacked by your
partner, then report it to police to
get the support you need.
