The bag health checkfor your children
A s an Osteopath, I treat all sorts of achesand pains which are sometimes madeworse by carrying heavy items. Carryingheavy bags with books and laptops can
cause neck and shoulder strains, headaches andeven tingling and numbness in the arms and legs.Over time they can also contribute to the developmentof long term back pain through poor posture andincreased pressure on the discs in the spine.This is especially important for children whose bodiesare still developing and who are increasingly tendingto carry heavy school bags. Reports show that upto half of secondary school children report to haveoccasional back pain and evidence is mounting thatthey may be storing up potential problems in the futurefor their spinal health.So before you set off to work or send your child offto school, here are a few tips to minimize your bag’sstrain on your day.
If you’re unsure which treatment is best for you, thisis a useful website: www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Back-pain/Pages/Introduction.aspx otherwise seekprofessional help.Suzanne Burgess BSc (Hons) OsteopathyBACK at EASE Osteopathy and Pilates Therapy,07880 750 258.

s an Osteopath, I treat all sorts of aches
• Minimize the weight you carry.Remove all unnecessary items regularlyand use any storage lockers available atwork or school.
• Making sure that you are carryingbags evenly. Try not to carry a bag on one
shoulder as this will alter your posture and furtherincrease pressure to joints and discs and the risk of pain.• Children should never carry more than about 15% of their
own body weight. Check your child’s posture after theyhave put their bag on. If you notice your child leaningforward or slouching, it may be too heavy for them.
• When buying a bag, look for wide, padded shoulderstraps that reduce pressure on the neck and shoulderarea. For children, make sure the bag has adjustablestraps which can be altered as the child grows andencourage them to wear rucksacks with both straps.

Be aware of the risk oflungworm for your dog
You may recently have seen an advertisingcampaign about lungworm in dogs. The latestresearch shows that this parasite is becoming
more widespread. Traditionally it has been consideredto be a problem only in the South of England but isnow affecting dogs across the country.
Lungworm (Angiostrongylus vasorum) is a life threateningcondition in dogs. Severely infected dogs may showsigns of coughing and lung disease. However,lungworm also release substances that affect the blood’sability to clot. This allows adult worms to survive inthe blood vessels near the heart. Therefore, dogs thatare infected with lungworm are much more prone thanother dogs to bleeding. This can cause a wide rangeof symptoms such as prolonged bleeding from cuts,internal bleeding and anaemia. Seizures may occur ifbleeding takes place in the brain.

Celebrating 20 yearsat Bosworth College
In June we were extremely proud tocelebrate three members of our teachingstaff working at the College for over 20 years.From left to right: Mrs Alison Robbins (GCSE Course
Director), Mrs Elisabeth Carter (College Principal) andMrs Brenda Renouf (AS Course Director).
Mrs Sue Hardy was also celebrating: she, supportedby her husband Chris, has been looking after ouryounger boys for over twenty one years.
Past staff and students joined us at a garden party,held on the last day of the summer half term, to helpthe College celebrate. It was fascinating to meet thestudents that have graduated from Bosworth, many ofwhom had successfully completed their Undergraduateand Masters courses and have their feet firmly on acareer ladder. Some had travelled from the other sideof the world to be with us. Our youngest students (G1)helped out by becoming highly efficient waiters andwaitresses for the afternoon, welcoming our guests

There were two particular guests ofhonour – Mrs Sheilagh MacIntoshand Mrs Carole Collis, who, betweenthem, were running the College twentyyears ago and were instrumental in
appointing our present trio of senior teachers.
Twenty years ago the College was much smaller – just75 students and one main building, St. George’sopposite The Racecourse. Acquiring Nazareth Housein 1997 and Queen’s some years later has meantthat we have been able to increase the facilities andstudent numbers significantly. We are now, duringterm time, home to 320+ students, but Bosworth willstay what it has always been - a friendly, supportiveand happy place to work, study, and build skills andqualifications for the next important life-defining step.
We plan to make the garden party for Bosworthalumni a regular event every three years – the nextone will be on the afternoon before the summer halfterm in 2015, so please put this date in your diary!

Tax Planning –Everyone can win!
Reading recent headlines, itwould be easy to believe thattax planning is a crime. Howevernot all tax planning is bad. Indeed
there are many non-aggressive tax reliefs that do alot of good.Take the Business Premises Renovation Allowance(BPRA) for example. BPRA was introduced toencourage the renovation of property in “DesignatedDisadvantaged Areas”. In return for providing valuabletax reliefs to investors, there can be a number ofbenefits to the country.
• The regeneration of property in an area specificallyearmarked for regeneration.
• The creation of new employment opportunities.• The employment can provide further tax revenues for
the Exchequer.Overall, it is possible that unemployment benefits will
be reduced; new employees will pay IncomeTax and National Insurance; Employer’sNational Insurance is paid on wages;Businesses will pay some Corporation Tax,VAT and other duties. Not a bad deal forthe government.Another example of tax reliefs that can do
a lot of good are the tax reliefs available toinvestors in Enterprise Investment Schemes and
Venture Capital Trusts. These non-aggressive schemesaim to provide much needed finance / investmentto small businesses, through private investment. Thiscan help UK business and also create employmentopportunities and therefore more tax for the taxman.In summary, although there are aggressive schemesthat simply aim to avoid tax, there are also tax reliefsthat do a lot of good. They simply aim to reducethe risk to investors and to encourage investors topart with their money in these difficult times. In thesesituations, everyone can win!To contact Chancery please call Roger Eddowes, aPartner at Chancery on 01327 350888 or visit:www.chancerypartnership.com.

With the summer holiday periodcoming to an end, its time tofocus on getting the kids readyfor going back to school!
Dig out those lunchboxes, pencil cases and calculatorsas its time to think about the next term. Have yougot everything you need ready? It’s a hectic time,planning ahead is a good place to start and cansave a lot of rushing around on the morning of the big
day! For some that won’t be a problem,though if you are anything like I used
to be it will be a struggle to wake up,forgetting half the things you need
and nearly being late!
Try drawing up a list of thingsyou need, include packingthe bag the night before andeven doing those lunchboxes
can save a good 10minutes in the morning!
Have you given thoughtto uniforms and shoes?
Chances are there has been some growing done byyour bundle of joy, get them to have a try on sessiona week or two before they start back, this will leaveplenty of time to make sure everything fits and youaren’t sending your loved ones off to school in clothesthat look like they are for a child 3 years younger!Most of all, enjoy the peace and quiet.

Get behind our athletesat the Paralympic Games
W ith this issue of Focus Towcestercovering August andSeptember, the Olympic rush
is all but over and so is the bedlam itbrings with it or so you would think!Following the Olympics, London hoststhe Paralympics from 29th August to 9thSeptember 2012. With a multitude ofevents from Archery to Wheelchair Tennis the sportsinvolved really do range phenomenally.Having described the torch route and the informationrelated to it in the last issue I won’t go over the sameagain, however the Paralympics have their own torchwhich starts following the close of the Olympic gamesand goes through to the start of the Paralympics. Datesfor those interested are 24th to 29th August 2012.The Great Britain squad compete in a large numberof events and have many hopefuls for medals from themen’s Rugby team to the swimming pool. All hopefuls
would no doubt love to be backedby all of Great Britain in what
they are doing and I think thededication shown through
no doubt tough timesshould be commended.At the time of going topress not all the team have been named.Three local athletes who have their places
confirmed are Nigel Murray from LeamingtonSpa, in Boccia. London will be Nigel's fourth
games, having already wontwo golds and a silver previously.Competing in their first Paralympicsin the Wheelchair Fencing will beGabby Down and Justine Moore,both from nearby MiIlton Keynes.Good luck from all at Focus to allof the athletes competing! The storiesinvolved with the participants can’t allbe described as each member would deserve a fullmagazine of their own, so lets get behind ParalympicsGBand bring on some medals!

Are you a day dreamerand people watcher?
Watching peopleis a part timeoccupation manypeople partake
in. Sitting in a waiting room,train carriage, pub, club,waiting for a bus,airport, awaiting aloved one or justidling away timesitting in the carawaiting the kids fromschool. Does it ringany bells?
We act as judge, juryand executioner with manyassumptions too quicklyto jot or note down.How, what, when,
where? Wouldn’t be seen deadwearing that, wonder what he/she decided to buy that for?Bet they're loaded, nice car….I reckon that’s on the knock, hairsnice…. Or not. Bet she’s just got up,look no makeup and can’t be seengetting out the car. No wonder, justlook at her she’s still in her track pants!
Yes we all love it. Why? Because itcosts nothing and we can think whatwe wish, dreaming away those five orten spare minutes whilst putting thingsright in our own minds. A mind that justfree wheels and then BANG! Back toreality, no lottery winnings, no exoticholiday, no mansion, luxury cars orbeing able to live like the aristocracy justplain reality.
Bring on the next opportunity to spend afew minutes as judge jury and executionerfrom your own bench. The best thing is youcan do it for free. Happy watching!

The Northampton based window repair company,are revolutionising how homeowners view doubleglazing in our area. The company which specialises
in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken ordamaged by replacing the panes – not the frames hasgrown rapidly as customers take advantage oftheir services.
Managing Director Trevor Skidmore is more than happyto explain the process. ‘Our product is simple. If yourdouble glazing is misted up we can replace the glass at
a fraction of thecost of a newwindow, in anytype of frame,and with anew 5 yearguarantee. Ifind peopleare amazed
Cloudy2Clear – A simpleway to save money
at just how simple the process is and the speed withwhich we can replace the glass. This isn’t like whenyou have new frames put in with people levering outthe old ones with loads of mess. We can pop theold glass out and deliver, effectively, a brand newwindow within a matter of minutes. At the end of theday most frames, even timber ones, will last forever.It’s very rare we come across a window that needsa full replacement and that means the customer gets,effectively, a new window at a fraction of the cost.’
Trevor is rightly proud too of comments he receives backfrom satisfied customers, a selection of which he has puton his website www.cloudy2clear.co.uk. For example,he recently completed an installation at Mr Miners housein Northampton. Here’s what he had to say. ‘I haveto say that I thought the service Cloudy2Clear offercompared to having completely new windows absolutelyincredible value. The service was reliable, simple andwithout complication. The windows look absolutely brilliantand installation was incredibly quick. Thank you!’
High praise indeed! So, if your windows are steamed up,broken or damaged give Trevor a call for a free quotationon 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be more than happy to help!• Trevor Skidmore

W ell I hope by now your indoorgrown tomatoes are reaching5 to 6 feet tall. By pinching outall the growing tips of
the plant you will encourage rapiddevelopment of the fruits.
When the lower truss of fruit islarge enough for eating removethe lower leaves of the plant toallow the sun to ripen the fruit.Great smell and flavour, enjoy!
Now is the time to start planningand planting your spring floweringbulbs. Yes daffodil, tulip, bluebells, crocus,snowdrops (snowdrops are actually better transplantedin the green, alive and growing rather than a bulb)etc. All these bulbs and corms will be available to buybetween late August and November.

Challenging conditionshamper Rob�s progress
Rounds 7 and 8 of the Toyota MR2Championship came from Donington Park. Wetconditions greeted Barnett Motorsport and thecircuit remained wet for qualifying.
The team opted to run fresh tyres for the session but thecombination of a damp Donington track, aviation fuelfrom East Midlands Airport (next door to Donington)and tyres which were not scrubbed in meant gripwas at a premium. Rob set some good times andwas reducing them lap after lap. As the circuit beganto develop a drying line Rob realised his best timeswould come at the end but traffic and yellow flagsconspired to halt his progress at the crucial momentleaving him 21st from 36 entrants.
Confusion at the start of Race 1 led to red flags anda wayward car clouted Rob leading to suspension

In Race 2 Robstruggled to get heat into his tyres and continued tosuffer with low grip. He made it up to 15th again beforean uncharacteristic error sent him to the barriers afterexiting the Old Hairpin. The car was not substantiallydamaged so Rob rejoined and finished 20th.
