ARIES 21 March -20April<br />

Beneficialchanges are underway covering more thanone<br />

aspect of your life. Recent times haveleft you wondering,worrying<br />

and, sometimes,downright dispirited, but finally you’re facingacalmer<br />

existence. Nothing’s going to happen atthe snap of your fingers<br />

however, slowly but surely, situations improve. One event is set to<br />

ignite your heart withapassionhitherto unknown! Use all thelessons<br />

lifehas taughtyou recently and all will be well. Enjoy yourself!<br />

10<br />

TAROTSCOPES<br />

LIBRA 24 September -23October<br />

Many choices are placed before you but don’t make any<br />

hastydecisions regarding acceptance just yet.For now it would be<br />

better to takeyour timeand ensure you readall thesmall print<br />

before committing to anything. Don’t allow wishful thinking to take<br />

over as one offer certainlyisn’tall that it’s cracked up to be. Slow<br />

and steady wins therace! Exercising patience and being<br />

methodical in your approach leads to contentment. Eventually!<br />

TAURUS 21 April -21May<br />

Prepareyourself as life gains momentum. Communications<br />

arrive thickand fast and there could be atouchofromance<br />

surrounding some of them.This is great as there are also<br />

celebrations in theair. Wherever theinvitation to party arrives from<br />

be sure to get your glad rags on and enjoy thecamaraderieofthe<br />

event. Whilst there are no guarantees of ahappy ever after,nor of<br />

an uneventfuljourney, something wonderful starts here.<br />

GEMINI 22 May -21June<br />

You’ve reached the mid-point of an argument which has gone<br />

on long enough and now needs to be put to bed onceand forall.<br />

Someone is going to bring all their might to beartoproveapoint<br />

and you may feel browbeaten. Haveyour saythen move away!<br />

You’renot conceding anything and time will prove you right but for<br />

now put your energies into something that, with effort, willbring<br />

you success.<br />

SCORPIO 24 October -22November<br />

More than one situation seemingly in atangle? Fear not;<br />

you’re more than capable of sorting things out. It’sgoing to needa<br />

mixtureofpatience, applying your own standards and going with<br />

what you feel comfortable with, and getting ahelping hand from<br />

The Universe. What is it you really, and truly, would like? There’s<br />

agood chance you’llget it now. Have faiththingsare better than<br />

theyappear and you can prevail.<br />

SAGITTARIUS 23 November -21December<br />

Financially errorshavebeenmade; either physically or thoseof<br />

judgement, and you could now find yourself feeling atad isolated<br />

and unsure where to go next.Scrutinise accountsand check<br />

everything; twice!! Someonecould appear to offeryou the world but,<br />

again, checkthe small print as not everything promised will come to<br />

fruition.Toensure success make alistand complete one job at a<br />

timecarefullypayingattention to EVERYminute detail.<br />

CANCER 22 June -23<strong>July</strong><br />

Time to move away from the past. You’re encouraged to<br />

make sweeping changes allowing space for new experiences.<br />

Don’t let fear hold you back but be careful with the decisions you<br />

make. One opportunity presenting itself isn’t as good as it appears.<br />

Be prepared to helpothers along your way knowing that your<br />

efforts willberepaid in your time of need. Balance mind, body, and<br />

spiritwithrest, good diet,exercise, and mental stimulation.<br />

LEO 24 <strong>July</strong>-23 August<br />

Happiness, joy, and delight, are yours for the taking. Why<br />

wouldn’t they be? You’ve added your two’ penneth and been<br />

proven right in more than one situation. Now it’s time to help others<br />

along their path and othersWILLlook foryourguidance. You’re<br />

more than capable and your wisdom and judgement know no<br />

bounds. That said, beware you may feel trapped helping others<br />

with no concern forwhat makes you tick. You’ve been warned!<br />

CAPRICORN 22 December -20January<br />

Career and business again! Contemplate where you are,how<br />

you got there, anddon’t be afraid to let some things go. The relief<br />

felt at theirpassing will be welcome. You need to maintain a<br />

balance between head and heart or perhaps that should be your<br />

income and expenditure. This isn’t atime for frivolity with hard<br />

earned cash! New learning will increase thecofferseventually but<br />

you’ll need to put thetime in first.<br />

AQUARIUS 21 January -19February<br />

You may need to balance thefinancesnow so perhaps some<br />

thought should be given as to how your financial futureisgoing to<br />

shape up. Aheartfelt conversation holds much promise but it does<br />

depend on bothparties speaking their truth and listening to the<br />

responses made. The air is cleared and relief felt all round. Hard<br />

work and attention to detail elevates your status and gives asolid<br />

platform from which to grow.<br />

VIRGO 24 August-23 September<br />

Nostalgiatakes hold as atripdown memorylane is<br />

unavoidable. Someone could be out to cause mischief so keep<br />

your eyes open and your mouth closed. Not everyone is who they<br />

say they are. However, thereare genuine feelings of good will<br />

surrounding you and Karmaensures you’rerepaidfor past good<br />

deeds. From then on move away from the past.It’stime foranew<br />

start and this time it’s all about you.<br />

PISCES 20 February -20March<br />

Using your head rather than your heart is key and getting<br />

agreements in writing is paramount. Someone provides an<br />

emotional support network but thepractical stuffisyours. Changes<br />

around you suggest you’ll be willingtograspthe nettlewith<br />

determination and move forward. You’ll always help those less<br />

fortunate asyou know Karma will repay you in time but know<br />

where to draw theline. Do not let anyone take you for afool!<br />

PROFILE<br />

When you step into No.4 Coffee House in<br />

Clowne you can’t help but feel the place<br />

is a little special. The history of the<br />

building speaks for itself and the smell of<br />

greatcoffee will probably make youwant<br />

to stay awhile.<br />

The history of No.4 canbetraced backto<br />

1880 when it was built and opened as J.A.<br />

Radford’s Grocery Store. Itremained as<br />

aGrocer and Corn Factors, under the<br />

ownership of Eastwood and Sons, and<br />

then M.Carter for several years. The<br />

original hoist and pulley wheel has been<br />

saved and can still be seen in No.4’s<br />

Secret Garden, and the Valor Pump used<br />

for the sale of paraffinisstill on display in<br />

the fireplace of thePiano Room.<br />

local people have fond memories of<br />

going to Barbara’s shop to get the latest<br />

toy or game,ortoget their bike repaired.<br />

It was during 2016 that the building was<br />

converted into acaféand tearoom which<br />

opened in 2017. The restoration was<br />

carried out sympathetically with many<br />

original featuresleft intact.Visitors today<br />

can still be served over the original toy<br />

shopcounter, and can enjoy the historic<br />

atmosphere created by the original<br />

floors, fixtures and fittings. The Raleigh<br />

sign from the bike shop days still hangs<br />

proudly on the wall near the original<br />

Rattue ToyShop sign.<br />

beverage, a beer, or a glass of your<br />

favourite tipple, you’ll find ithere. You’ll<br />

also find breakfast, brunch and lunch<br />

options, as well as lots ofcakes, scones<br />

and Afternoon Teasavailable.<br />

The Coffee House isopen Wednesday –<br />

Sunday and the Secret Garden with<br />

heated shelter is always open when the<br />

Coffee Houseis. On Fridayand Saturday<br />

evenings No.4 transforms into a retro<br />

Bistro and Cocktail Bar with amenu of<br />

Sharing Boards and Basket Meals.<br />

Bookings are taken for evenings and<br />

Afternoon Teas. For the daytime menu<br />

customers are encouragedtojustwalk in<br />

and enjoy the table service.<br />

In 1932 the building was taken over by<br />

W.D ‘Dougie’ Rattue. Initially Dougie<br />

Rattue ran itasaMotorcycle Dealership<br />

and Filling Station but the premises<br />

becameaRaleigh Bicycle Agent in 1941.<br />

After Dougie’s death in 1981 the shop<br />

became a Toy Shop and Bike Repair<br />

Specialist under the stewardship of<br />

Dougie’s wife, Barbara, who ran the<br />

business alone for many years. Lots of<br />

After being closed for a while No.4<br />

re-opened in 2021 and is now afully<br />

licensed Coffee House with a varied<br />

menu of freshly prepared food and a<br />

good selection of drinks. Whether it’s<br />

great coffee you’re looking for, acold<br />

Being so close to the Clowne Greenway -<br />

the old railway line which has beenmade<br />

into an accessible path between<br />

Cresswell and Poolsbrook -No.4makes a<br />

great pit stop for walkers, cyclists and<br />

dog walkers. Well behaved dogs are<br />

welcome throughout No.4 –wejust ask<br />

KILLAMARSH PEOPLE ………………INTRODUCING ……….<br />

This month we introduce Steven<br />

Cullabine.<br />

Steven is alifelongresident of Killamarsh<br />

and went to Killamarsh Infant and<br />

Nursery School, KillamarshJunior School<br />

and <strong>Eckington</strong> Comprehensive School.<br />

He is married to Gemma and they have<br />

two daughters Annabelle aged 6 and<br />

Lacey aged 9who both gotoschool in<br />

Killamarsh.<br />

Steven is a Carpenter working for<br />

Kingston Joinery, aSchool Governor at<br />

Killamarsh Infant and Nursery School<br />

and a member of the Woodhead<br />

Mountain Rescue Team.<br />

Steven says: “Being part of aMountain<br />

Rescue Team is something quite special<br />

and unique. We receive the besttraining<br />

available which enables us to go out<br />

safely into the most inhospitable<br />

conditions imaginable,and bring people<br />

back to safety.<br />

Mountain rescue is not just about hilly<br />

terrain, we can quite often be seen in<br />

areas suchasRother Valley Country Park<br />

working alongside the Police searching<br />

for vulnerable missing people, helping<br />

Yorkshire Ambulance Service extracting<br />

casualties from woodland and fields etc<br />

suchasmountain bikers and horse riders.<br />

Being on call24/7 365 daysayearcan be<br />

challenging, but knowing there is abig<br />

team of us ready to respond to people in<br />

need in our local community, makes that<br />

3.00 am callout worth itand when the<br />

dust has settled, and you are getting on<br />

with your day job or whatever you were<br />

doing at the time, knowing you played<br />

a part in reuniting someone with<br />

their loved ones, or getting someone<br />

seriously injured to definitive care is a<br />

fantastic feeling.<br />

People are often surprised that<br />

mountain rescue is 100% voluntary and<br />

relies on committed team members to<br />

attend training everyweek,callouts on a<br />

regular basis and attend fundraising<br />

events. It costs around£40,000 per year<br />

for amountain rescue team to remain<br />

operational and this is what team<br />

members have to raise with the help of<br />

donations from the public and<br />

businesses.<br />

Recently it was agreathonourtoreceive<br />

the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Medal for<br />

servicestomountain rescue and thiswill<br />

be deeply treasured.”<br />

When Steven does manage toget any<br />

spare time heenjoys walking in the hills<br />

and mountains all over the UK,<br />

mountain biking, generally trying to<br />

keepfit andspending timewith family<br />

If you would like to make adonation to<br />

Woodhead Mountain Rescue and make<br />

areal difference in helping us to help<br />

others, you can visit our website where<br />

you can find information on how to<br />

donate.<br />

In this, the year of Her Majesty the<br />

Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, local<br />

volunteer Michelle Taurins has been<br />

awarded aPlatinum Champions Award<br />

from the RoyalVoluntary Service for her<br />

outstanding contributions as a<br />

volunteer.Inhonour of their patron, Her<br />

Majesty the Queen and the great<br />

example she has set inher 70 years of<br />

service, the Royal Volunteer Service<br />

launched the Awards as part of national<br />

Jubilee celebrations. Out of over 3,000<br />

applicants, only 490 were handpicked for<br />

awards by ajudging panel presided over<br />

by the Duchess of Cornwall, and there<br />

were only 3awarded inthe whole of<br />

Sheffield!<br />

Here at Doorsteppa we have worked<br />

with Michelle for some time and it is no<br />

surprise thatshe wasone of theindividuals<br />

crowned aPlatinum Champion! This is an<br />

incredible achievement and to celebrate,<br />

we met with Michelle at The New Hope<br />

Community Church on Old Lane in<br />

Holbrook, where wediscussed her years<br />

of volunteering, the creation of the New<br />

Hope CommunityChurchfoodbank, and<br />

the New Hope Furniture Project.<br />

For over 10 years, Michelle has travelled<br />

over 40 miles from her home inNewark<br />

to help out every day. Michelle shared<br />

with me that towards the end of 2011,<br />

she felt Godcalling her to the New Hope<br />

Community Church. She was self<br />

employedatthe timeand came on board<br />

dedicating her time in2012. After just a<br />

few months, she began to look into how<br />

feasible it would be to start alocal food<br />

bank to help those in need inthe community.<br />

Michelle and her team<br />

discovered that there was nowhere<br />

within a6mile radius of the Churchthat<br />

provided this service to the vulnerable in<br />

the community. They discovered that<br />

people locally, who were already in<br />

need, had to spend over £5.00 to get to<br />

the nearest food bank. After several<br />

months of studying different existing<br />

models set upbyother organisations,<br />

Michelle took the best practices from<br />

each and setupasystem distributing<br />

26<br />

Local volunteer recognised asaRoyal Platinum Champion<br />

for her outstanding contributions!<br />

food to local homes that needed support<br />

and help.<br />

Then came the jobofvisiting all the local<br />

supermarkets, getting donation bins<br />

installed wherever possible to allow<br />

shoppers to conveniently donate food<br />

when shopping. Very quickly, the food<br />

donations began to come in and the<br />

Church were able to expand their<br />

referral base. They made apromise to<br />

deliver food within 24 hours of referral.<br />

In order to achieve this, they partnered<br />

with other churches -Dronfield Oaks,<br />

<strong>Eckington</strong>Oaks, Spa View Hackenthorpe,<br />

and Swallownest Baptist Church. The<br />

deliveriesarrived on the Monday,goout<br />

to the respective Churches and it’s then<br />

distributed to homes within the 24 hour<br />

window!<br />

Back then, meetings took place atthe<br />

Methodist Church inKillamarsh but as<br />

the organisation and donations grew, it<br />

was obvious that New Hope needed a<br />

building of their own. Alady from the<br />

Co-Op happened to come tovisit and<br />

mentioned toMichelle that anoption<br />

may be to look into taking over<br />

otherwise unused Co-Op buildings.<br />

Looking at several different places and<br />

eventually finding the building at Old<br />

Lane Holbrook in 2015, New Hope<br />

approached Derbyshire County Council.<br />

Michelle said, “After several prayers<br />

outside, we were given the unit we<br />

wanted!” Painting and refurbishing<br />

throughout the building, New Hope<br />

became the destination we know today,<br />

with both the Charity Shop and Coffee<br />

Shop openand welcoming to the public.<br />

In 2015,referrers intothe food bank began<br />

to ask if New Hope had any furniture<br />

available. This led to the creation of the<br />

New Hope Furniture Project.<br />

Michelle told us, “It all started by going<br />

into Center Parcs once a year. They<br />

refurbish on average 69units annually<br />

and wewere given access to go in and<br />

take anything that wethought would be<br />

useful. We now also receive many kind<br />

donations. Working by referral and<br />

under direction from front-line care<br />

professionals, we will provide free of<br />

charge ‘house-packs’ including beds,<br />

wardrobes, dining table and chairs,<br />

microwave, and other essential household<br />

items which are required to reduce need,<br />

hardship or distress, helping to turn a<br />

house into ahome.” These packs go outto<br />

the homeless getting their first home, and<br />

peoplefleeing domestic violence.<br />

Michelle is avery warmand modestlady<br />

and just before Ileft she said, “I want to<br />

emphasise that this award was given to<br />

me but it’sfor allthe volunteershere.I’m<br />

only as good as my team and they all go<br />

above and beyond on adaily basis.Ilove<br />

what Ido. There is nothing better than<br />

giving and helping people who need it.<br />

Meeting people at their point of crisis<br />

andmaking adifference -it’saprivilege!”<br />

Congratulations Michelle! Here at<br />

Doorsteppa we all agree the award is<br />

richly deserved and we know that you<br />

will continue to make a positive<br />

difference in thelocal community.<br />

TRAVEL<br />

Dubai isthe perfect family destination, with a<br />

multitude of activities, eateries and theme<br />

parks for all the family to enjoy together.<br />

Winter time, from November toApril, is the<br />

besttime to visit.<br />

Waterparks<br />

Dubai’s waterparks have something for all<br />

ages. From the thrilling rides for adrenaline<br />

junkies to idyllic beaches for those who like a<br />

slower pace oflife, here are some ofthe best<br />

waterparks to visit:<br />

2<br />

•Legoland Water Park caters for children all<br />

ages.There’saDuplo Splash Safari for toddlers,<br />

while other slides provide thrills for the bigger<br />

children. At‘Build-A-Boat’, children can even<br />

construct aboat and test it on the water. This<br />

waterpark isperfect for those with children<br />

aged 2 to 12 with plenty of interactive<br />

experiences.<br />

•The biggestwaterparkinDubai,Aquaventure<br />

is made up of two main towers, Poseidon and<br />

Neptune, connected byagiant lazy river that<br />

transports riders between slides. For those<br />

with astrong stomach, try the Leap ofFaith, a<br />

wide-open near-verticaldrop!<br />

•AquaFun is the region’s biggest inflatable<br />

waterpark with 74 games totry along the fun<br />

course. Italso features some of the world’s<br />

longest and highest water slides.<br />

•Splash Pad at The Beach isperfect for little<br />

ones with its fountains, tipper bucket and<br />

climbing frames. There’s also plenty of<br />

entertainment nearby to keep you busy into<br />

the evening.<br />

Friday Brunch<br />

Dubai’s working week spans Sunday to<br />

Thursday so Friday is the time to kick back and<br />

enjoy adelicious family-friendly brunch:<br />

•The Ultimate Friday Brunch takes place at<br />

Flow Kitchen atFairmont the Palm. There’s a<br />

selection of healthy bites, Middle Eastern<br />

classics and delicious roasts from live cooking<br />

stations. The little ones can stay entertained<br />

with activities suchasfacepaintingand fun arts<br />

and crafts.<br />

•Brunch atAtmosphere, onlevel 122 of the<br />

Burj Khalifa tower is one of those ‘only in<br />

Dubai’ experiences! Itonly takes place four<br />

times ayear, but the extraordinary views and<br />

15 dishes make it unmissable!<br />

•Lock, Stock &Barrel specialises indelicious<br />

southern US fare and the delicious brunch<br />

features classics such asmac ‘n’ cheese balls,<br />

buffalo wings and beef sliders, all at<br />

wallet-friendly prices.<br />

Kids rule at Kidzania!<br />

Located inside the Dubai Mall, Kidzania is a<br />

place where children can work, play and<br />

pretend in this made up town where they’re in<br />

charge! There are over 80-role playing activities<br />

and 60 city establishments where children can<br />

build essential real-life skills. On arrival,<br />

children begin at the airport with aboarding<br />

pass and 50 kidzos (the Kidzania currency).<br />

They can head to the bank, cash their checks<br />

and hit the streets to explore.Theycan work to<br />

earn more money in avariety of roles such as<br />

firefighter or beautician and then treat<br />

themselves to things like shopping sprees and<br />

entertainment. They’ve earned it!<br />

Something alittledifferent<br />

If the family have had enough ofall the usual<br />

sun, sea and sand-based activities, here are a<br />

few ideasfor something alittle different…<br />

•OliOli is afresh conceptfor children aged two<br />

to 11 which is split into eight themedgalleries.<br />

From Toshi’s Net,acolourfulhanging play area,<br />

to launching cannonballs inthe Water Gallery<br />

and tinkering in the Creative Lab, there’splenty<br />

to keep little ones occupied!<br />

• A unique shopping experience, City Walk<br />

fuses entertainment, shopping and dining. Try<br />

Hub Zero for avirtual gaming experience or<br />

The Green Planet – an enclosed ecosystem<br />

recreating atropicalrainforest with over 3,000<br />

plants andanimals!<br />

•The new VR Park combines augmented and<br />

virtual reality with options for all the family.<br />

Propel down the side of the Burj Khalifa in the<br />

Burj Dropexperience or trytosurviveazombie<br />

HISTORY<br />

Looking at old photographs is more<br />

relaxing than meditating. The<br />

research suggests we should be<br />

embracing the new trendoflooking<br />

at old photographs and reminiscing<br />

on pastadventures.<br />

Are you feeling weirdly stressed,<br />

having oddly vivid dreams and<br />

waking up each dayfeeling no more<br />

rested than the one before? If you<br />

feel like you need tounwind, don’t<br />

bother reaching foryour yoga mat –<br />

look out some old photographs instead.<br />

New research has found that<br />

photographs even more relaxing<br />

thanmeditating.<br />

The photographs may be from your<br />

childhood, of the first photo you<br />

and yourpartnertooktogether or of<br />

your happiest memory. Looking<br />

back at these happy memories is the<br />

perfect activity to remind you ofall<br />

the fantastic experiences you’ve<br />

hadinyourlifesofar.<br />

Taking the time tolook back onour<br />

treasured memories can be truly<br />

beneficial forour wellbeing as it can<br />

help to evoke feelings of positivity<br />

andhappiness. Becauseofthis, and<br />

especially at times like this, we<br />

shouldtake moretimetoappreciate<br />

and look backonthem.<br />

Our photographs remind us of<br />

people, pets, places and activities<br />

that we love as wellashelpingusto<br />

remember the past. This has been<br />

shown to reduce our stress and<br />

enhance our mood and overall<br />

wellbeing.<br />

When we look back and reminisce<br />

on happy times and special<br />

moments, we returntothe moment<br />

that we can see in the image. This<br />

fuses with our wider memories of<br />

the occasion that we might not have<br />

photographed and transports us<br />

back toahappier place.<br />

Laughing at silly photographs<br />

releases endorphins, our body’s<br />

natural stress reliever. Seeing<br />

images of our friends and family, in<br />

significantmoments in ourand their<br />

lives, reducescortisol andadrenalin<br />

which are the hormones<br />

responsible for anxiety.<br />

On mantelpieces, windowsills,<br />

shelves and sideboards, where<br />

many of us display our treasured<br />

photos in frames, have been shown<br />

to one of the most peaceful places<br />

in our home. This is because of the<br />

immediate sense of wellbeing that<br />

we get by looking at photographs of<br />

our loved ones atvarious stages in<br />

their developing lives.<br />

Research has alsoshown that<br />

having ‘real’ photographs in our<br />

home provides regular psychological<br />

positive reinforcement by<br />

reminding us of what and who is<br />

important to us.<br />

Old photographs are a great help to<br />

people suffering from dementia.<br />

Oneofthe best ways to help do this<br />

is by showing them photos that will<br />

take them back through their<br />

memories and encourages them to<br />

reminisce. By sharing snapshots<br />

from the past, you will be stimulating<br />

their brain. This will work to<br />

improve memory function and<br />

prolonging their cognitive ability.<br />

Reminiscing means sharing life<br />

experiences, memories and stories<br />

from the past. Typically, aperson<br />

with dementiaismore abletorecall<br />

things from many years ago than<br />

recent memories, so reminiscing<br />

draws on this strength.<br />

Nostalgia is apowerful thing, and<br />

it’s about sentimentalityfor thepast<br />

and is about areturntoatime period<br />

that we associatewith happiness.<br />

So get out those old photographs<br />

andreminisce. After all it’s good for<br />

your healthand wellbeing.<br />
