the value of our residents maintaining<br />
their community attachments, hobbies<br />

support and companionship is there if<br />
they need it.<br />
the village’s 34 semi-detached but<br />
private units sit in landscaped grounds<br />
alongside George Manning house, the<br />
purpose-built eighty-one bed rest home<br />
and hospital. on hand at GMh robyn<br />
and her team are available to answer any<br />
questions or organise any assistance the<br />
residents need.<br />
Paulger courts units are designed to<br />
be sunny, comfortable and easy to live<br />
in, whilst relieving the residents of the<br />
burden of home maintenance or reliance<br />
on family for urgent assistance. With<br />
the supplied ‘Never alone’ alarm, the<br />
nightly security patrol and willing staff,<br />
residents and their families can feel<br />
reassured that help is at hand should it<br />
be required.<br />
the emphasis at Paulger courts is on<br />
ensuring that it always remains a safe<br />
and happy place for people live, making<br />
the move to a retirement village as easy a<br />
transition as possible.<br />

Winter Warmer - Hot tips<br />
for cold weather<br />
Does that nip in the air make it hard<br />
to get moving? What better way to warm<br />
yourself than getting the blood pumping to<br />
warm up on the inside.<br />
The less active we are, the more we feel the<br />
cold. But it’s easy to warm hands and feet by<br />
working muscles and joints while staying dry<br />
and warm in front of tV.<br />
The aircycle exerciser is an indoor warmer<br />
which gets your circulation going in no time.<br />
The movement is a gentle awakening for<br />
sleepy muscles and joints, warms and loosens<br />
them to ease them into action.<br />
tight, cold muscles mean decreased<br />
mobility and are more prone to injury.<br />
imagine putting a rubber band in the freezer<br />
and then trying to stretch it over a large box.<br />
it snaps. But warm the rubber band slowly<br />
and it will stretch to take the force of your<br />
pull. That band is like your muscles in winter.<br />
it is unnecessary to use the aircycle for<br />
lengthy periods. short, frequent spells<br />
throughout the day and evening are most<br />
effective. a few minutes while sitting with<br />
a coffee or chatting on the phone will keep<br />
blood circulating and feet and hands warm.<br />
a good warm up keeps the body running<br />
like a well oiled machine. Mrs spier wrote, “i<br />
have arthritis and joint problems. When i’ve<br />
been using the aircycle i feel as though i’ve<br />
had a good lube. My joints are more flexible<br />
and i can garden more easily.”<br />
aircycles are available in pharmacies, at<br />
