It has been incredibly challenging for everyone but you have been amazing in your support of the practice. You have been patient with us when we have had to adapt to the new ways of working. Thank you for wearing your face mask when you come into see us and thank you for understanding that the waiting room is empty because we are trying to protect you and the staff. We continue to be offering the same, if not more, appointments; we have a selection of telephone, video consultations and Face to face consultations. Our staff are working extremely hard trying to manage in this difficult time and we appreciate your kindness and consideration of this when contacting the practice. We are trying our very best to provide care for you and your families. Attending the surgery It remains important that we minimise any risk of transmission of COVID whilst any of us are attending the surgery. We are still mandated to ensure that patients are fully screened for COVID symptoms prior to entering the surgery. This is why our reception team ask you about the symptoms or the reason before offering you an appointment and this is likely to continue for the foreseeable future. We will continue with the telephone triage system but this does not mean we will not see you if needed but means we will continue to minimise the number of patients in the building at any one time. It remains essential that all patients (unless exempt) wear a face mask when attending the surgery and attend alone (unless they are unable). All staff have now received their two COVID vaccinations and all staff are required to be tested twice weekly for COVID. We do however continue to have staff and members of their families test positive at times. This continues to mean that clinical staff have to work from home at times due to needing to self-isolate. Please stay safe and look after each other! Jacquie Practice Manager 3 New staff members at the Medical Practice We would like to welcome the following new members of staff:- Physiotherapy FCPs: Paul – our new First Contact Practitioner - has joined the prac- tice this week. He is with us on Tuesdays for telephone and face-to-face assessments. A first contact practitioner (FCP) is an experienced physiotherapist who has the advanced skills necessary to assess, diagnose and recommend appropriate treatment or referral for musculoskeletal (MSK) problems on a patient’s first contact with healthcare services e.g. when they visit their GP surgery. Patients with MSK complaints can be booked in to see an FCP by a GP receptionist, GP or online. An FCP offers expert MSK assessment and diagnosis, however, is also integrated within the multi-disciplinary team in each GP practice. If appropriate, an FCP may prescribe a programme of exercises, refer for blood tests or X-ray, administer steroid injections, or refer a patient to an appropriate secondary health service e.g. rheumatology or orthopaedics. All FCP’s are trained to identify ‘red flag’ symptoms which may require medical attention. Your Health, Your Way Your Health Your Way is Nottinghamshire’s new Integrated Wellbeing Service funded by Nottinghamshire County Council and delivered by ABL Health. They are here to help all residents of Nottinghamshire (excluding Nottingham city) get more active, eat healthier, manage your weight, drink less alcohol and stop smoking.

It’s a gradual process which happens over months or years. Why does the menopause happen? The menopause is a normal part of the life cycle, where levels of the hormone oestrogen decline with age, so periods become less frequent and eventually stop altogether. This means a woman is no longer able to get pregnant. What are the symptoms? A change in the pattern of your periods is the first sign of the menopause. Other symptoms include hot flushes, night sweats, anxiety, memory problems, vaginal dryness and changes in sex drive. Symptoms vary between individuals – some women will experience mild symptoms while others may have symptoms that have a big impact on their everyday life. 6 Quick facts about the Menopause 1. The menopause is caused by changes in hormone levels which take place as a woman gets older. 2. Menopausal symptoms include hot flushes, mood changes, memory problems and changes in sex drive. 3. The length of time that symptoms last for varies between individuals, but averages about 4 years. 4. Treatment is available to help with symptoms if you want it. 5. A healthy diet and regular exercise, alongside simple behavioural changes, can improve some symptoms. 6. Talking helps – friends, family and professionals can give support and guidance. Treatments for menopausal symptoms Your GP can offer treatments and suggest lifestyle changes if you have severe menopausal symptoms that interfere with your day-to-day life. These include:- Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) Tablets, skin patches, gels and implants that relieve menopausal symptoms by replacing oestrogen. Vaginal oestrogen creams, lubricants or moisturisers for vaginal dryness. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) A type of talking therapy that can help with low mood and anxiety eating a healthy, balanced diet and exercising regularly – maintaining a healthy weight and staying fit and strong can improve some menopausal symptoms. To read more about the symptoms on the NHS website see link below:- https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/menopause/symptoms/ 6 Prescription Ordering During the Covid-19 pandemic we would appreciate it if you could kindly request your prescription via our online services or by drop- ping the request through the letterbox near the front door.

  • Mikee Delony Abilene Christian University Peer-Reviewed Robin
    A REVIEW OF THE YEAR’S PUBLICATIONS IN ROBIN HOOD SCHOLARSHIP Mikee Delony Abilene Christian University Peer-reviewed Robin Hood scholarship published in 2015 includes two single-author books, two edited book chapters, and eight journal articles. These publications examine specific texts from the matter of Robin Hood, providing new approaches to familiar texts and further exploration of less-familiar materials. Many scholars also comment on the tradition’s capacity for seemingly endless adaptation and highlight the similar ideological and political threads woven through the materials. Shining an academic light upon five centuries of Robin Hood texts that celebrate political resistance and public activism against oppression takes on new importance in light of contemporary global resistance to government overreach and systemic oppression. Since Robin Hood scholarship also tends to resist categorization, I have loosely grouped these reviews by literary chronology and genre. GENERAL STUDIES In Reading Robin Hood: Content, Form, and Reception in the Outlaw Myth,1 Stephen Knight revisits the Robin Hood literary tradition from his position as one of the early pioneers in the field of Robin Hood studies. In his survey, which ranges from medieval oral ballads to twenty- first film and television adaptations, Knight notes the multivalent, “unhierarchial, nonlinear” (10) nature of the tradition and suggests that Deleuze and Guattari’s rhizomatic “model of multiplicity” (234) might best describe the “various, porous, [and] richly labile” legend (10). Writing that the Robin Hood tradition “renews itself in turns of current political forces and media of dissemination and consistently has as scant a respect for literary and formalistic authority as it has for social and legal forces of order” (253), Knight celebrates the characteristics that prevent the tradition from achieving canonical status at the same time they have remained relevant for centuries.

  • Major Oak, Sherwood Forest (Robin Hood Camped Beneath It.)
    Major Oak, Sherwood Forest (Robin Hood camped beneath it.) To the commoner the oak was both sustenance and livelihood: providing acorns for feeding pigs and making bread; bark for tanning leather; pollarded branches as tree fodder for livestock in winter and fuel for domestic fires; sawdust for smoking meat and fish; oak galls for making ink; and wood for charcoal and hence for smelting iron especially here in the Weald where iron foundries abounded until the end of the sixteenth century. But the English oak, one of the hardest and most durable woods in the world, was most prized for its timber - as boards for flooring, support beams for houses and barns and most important of all, for an island nation, for ship-building. 'See that limb there,' said Ted, extending his arm to mirror an upwardly arching branch, 'split in two that makes a matching pair of timbers for the hull of a ship. And the genius of it was, you didn't have to kill the tree to do it. You could just take the limbs that suited what you needed them for.' The oak's very name in Latin, Quercus robur, resonates strength and until the middle of the nineteenth century shipbuilders relied almost entirely on oak, 'the wooden walls of Old England' carrying sailors around the globe, fuelling the expansion of the British Empire. The tree is saluted in the naming of eight HMS Royal Oak warships down the centuries, in the 'Hearts of Oak' march of the Royal Navy and even in a verse of 'Rule, Britannia'.

  • South Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    South Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities Third Edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… With a foreword by Lord David Blunkett This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. South Yorkshire is a landscape and culture steeped in a history of coal mining, steel industry, agriculture and the slightly more light hearted tradition of butterscotch production in Doncaster! In recent years the major cities and towns have undergone huge transformations but much of the history and industry is still visible today including steel manufacturing in Sheffield, the medieval streets of Rotherham and the weekly town centre market in Barnsley – a tradition held since 1249! For those that enjoy the outdoors, South Yorkshire is equally diverse. You can enjoy the many tracks and trails of the spectacular Peak District National Park or the Trans Pennine Trail, the rolling fields of corn and windmills of Penistone, and the wildfowl delights of Rother Valley Country Park – an opencast coal mine turned local nature reserve. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, getting out into the countryside on your own, doing voluntary work, or investigating your local wildlife from home, we hope you get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside.

Below are five tasks that you are welcome to use. These are suggested steps and we will be pleased to continue to receive ANY writing that you are completing at home. By the end of this week, you will have created an opinion piece of writing to explain your stance on the legend of Robin Hood. This means you will explain what you believe about him. Whether the legends are all true, that they are partly based in truth or if he is just a made up character. Remember, you can share any of the work you produce with Mrs Cleal and Mrs Hague by emailing [email protected] Term 6 Where did There is huge speculation around everything to do with Robin Hood, the most basic being if he was a fiction or non-fiction character.
