It’s been quite a rough time recently with storms Dennis and Ciara making

their presence felt. Hearing about other parts of the country, it would seem

that we have got off quite lightly! We’re sure the directory has come in very

useful if you needed some fence work and roof tiles tending to. If it’s trees

you need help with you’ll find several companies to assist. After months

of looking at your water logged, muddy garden, what about considering

artificial grass? It’s a great solution for a fantastic looking lawn all year

round.

A couple of dates to remember this month, St Patrick’s Day on the 17th

March and 22nd March it’s Mothering Sunday. Don’t forget the clocks go

forward on the 29th March when British Summer Time begins. Role on

those long Summer evenings! The Easter weekend is always something to

look forward to as for many people it’s a few extra days off work and an

excuse to have a bit of chocolate! (As if I need one!)It’s usually about this

time of year when we start thinking about home improvements. You’ll

find lots of great local trades to give you help and advice. There’s even

All Seasons property services who offer cleaning your roof. With instant

results, it’s amazing what a difference it makes. That’s the same when you

have a room painted, it looks like a whole new room. It’s an ever growing

list of jobs! Maybe just think about booking a Summer holiday, much more

relaxing!

It’s a good idea to keep the directory until the next one comes, you never

know when you might need a locksmith, an electrician, carpenter or

plumber or even somebody to deal with nasty critters!

Congratulations to Ginney who is going to enjoy her Afternoon Tea for Two

at Beckworth. Keep your entries coming in for your chance to win!

Until next time…..

new Digital Hub at The Forum

The Towcester Town Mayor, Cllr. Lisa Samiotis joined Citizens Advice North Oxfordshire and South

Northamptonshire’s volunteers and staff to celebrate the official opening of Towcester Digital Hub, at The

Forum, on Monday 20 th January.

Towcester Digital Hub is a new, face-to-face service that offers clients access to information and guidance

on digital platforms. The service is provided by trained, volunteer Digital Advice Coaches.

We are open Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 10am-

2pm and clients can drop in at any time, no appointment

needed.

Towcester Digital Hub provides help and support to access

information and to navigate the digital world. This can include

completing online forms, finding information online and also

“how-to” advice. This is all delivered from our friendly and patient

volunteer team.

Volunteers are crucial to any Citizens Advice Service and we are

welcoming new volunteers all the time. To become a Digital

Advice Coach all volunteers need to have basic digital and IT

skills. Citizens Advice will provide you with further training which

takes approximately 3 days and can be done flexibly. If you

believe that you; can spare 4 hours per week, that you have

good IT skills and good listening skills, apply online at

www.canosn.org.uk to become a Digital Advice Coach.
