THEYDON BOIS DONKEY DERBY RIDES AGAIN

L

ocal estate Agent Butler & Stag are once again proud sponsor of the eydon Bois Scout Group 32nd annual Donkey Derby, taking place on e Green on Sunday 14th July 12 noon until 4.00pm. Managing Director Neil Leahy lives in eydon Bois, and as a local community champion he has given priority to helping local causes since the local office opened two years ago. Neil says “Our philosophy is simple. As well as giving our clients and customers a first-class service we like to give something back to local community projects and charities that need our help. Butler & Stag was founded in 2012. We have been actively raising money ever since and have generated over £40,000 for our chosen causes. e Donkey Derby highlights the true spirit of eydon Bois and our wonderful green. It’s a fun event for everyone and raises much needed funds for the local Scouts and Guides groups and other village charities.” Continuing their support for a host of local schools, Churches, and charities, a team of five are lined up to take part in the Haven House Children's Hospice London to Brighton Cycle Ride in September. e Donkey Derby has become synonymous with the village with more than 4,000 people crowding onto the green eager to bet on and watch the jockeys, all aged between 10 and 15, get their donkeys round the course without

falling off. ere are seven races, with seven donkeys in each. e donkeys receive great care whatever the weather. ere will be the usual mix of fun stalls and activities including the very popular ‘beat the goalie’ which will be run again by sponsors Butler & Stag. e Donkey Derby committee, who organise the event, works hard to keep the event true to its roots with more old-fashioned games plus it supports local businesses and charities who want stalls. Chair Nik O'Flynn said: "We are very excited about this year's event which is a big part of the eydon calendar." Anyone wishing to be a jockey contact Michael Simpson on 07725 042415. (Jockeys need to be under nine stone (57kg). All the stalls are run by volunteers so if anyone wants to help contact Stephen stephen.rochester@yahoo.co.uk. ere will be parking but the Green is easily accessible to eydon Bois underground just 200 metres away. Neil caught up with local Scouts and Guides groups who celebrated receiving £4,000 raised following last year’s Donkey Derby. Let’s hope the 32nd Donkey Derby raises even more! n

A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY – OR A RISKY INVESTMENT?

I

n times of crisis, investing in gold has

traditionally been a safe haven for savers. But is it really such a good option? Scrutton Bland’s Financial Planning Partner Grant Buchanan investigates the wisdom of going for gold. Gold has been used for decoration and currency for thousands of years. In around 700 BC an alloy of silver and gold known as electrum was used in the Kingdom of Lydia (part of modern day Turkey) and the Venetians produced the gold ducat in 1284 AD, the same year the gold florin first appeared in England. e acquisition and trading of gold coins has long been a subject in art and literature: think of Long John Silver’s parrot shrieking “pieces of eight!” in Treasure Island, or the paintings of the Dutch Old Masters, such as Rembrandt and de Hooch, who frequently depicted images of people weighing and exchanging gold coins. Today we invest our savings in different ways, although traditional ‘safe havens’ in times of uncertainty for investment markets have been bonds, cash and gold. But with bonds and cash currently offering negligible returns, the political turmoil surrounding Brexit, the economic slowdown in China and doubts about the strength of the US economy, many professional investors have been prompted to favour gold. George Soros, the US billionaire who famously “broke the Bank of England” in 1992 by betting against sterling, and who has an aptitude for calling markets, has been an enthusiastic buyer of the precious metal. Meanwhile, the Royal Mint, the Government body which is responsible for “minting” Britain’s coins, is offering investors the opportunity to invest their pension pots in gold 2 0 JUNE 2019

However, buying gold in the form of bullion is expensive. ere is a buyer’s premium of around 1.5%, and a 1% charge for selling. en there is the cost of storage and insurance, costing perhaps £300 per year. An alternative way of investing in gold is via a security such as an Exchange Traded Fund (‘ETF’), which can carry a lower cost but still has platform charges and broker fees. ere are also of course indirect ways of investing in the value of the metal such as to buy shares in gold mines or bullion dealers. And what about the return? Gold produces no interest and no income, and the only means of profiting is by selling it – which may be subject to Capital Gains Tax. However, gold does have the advantage of being a physical asset, and as such provides some protection against inflation. Over the past 20 years, the gold price has risen by more than threefold, but gold bought at its peak in 2001 lost 25% of its value over the following five years. Such figures demonstrate the extreme volatility of the gold market, making it a market to view with caution. Purchasing small amounts of gold is one thing, but investing in ingots, fine wine, art and classic cars requires expert advice. e Scrutton Bland Private Client team are committed to helping our clients understand the ever-changing financial landscape. As specialists, the Scrutton Bland in-house Tax Advisers and Independent Financial Planners are able to provide a joined-up service of financial and tax advice, all under one roof and in the same meeting. n

The tour will return to the Globe stage for Refugee Week (17 - 23 June) as part of a wider programme of events in which refugee artists, performers and audiences will all share their stories. In May, Women & Power will comprise performances, panel events and workshops to highlight the work and voices of women of all

Until 11 October 2019

“The Shakespeare’s Globe Touring Ensemble will once again present a trio of plays for the audience to choose from�

backgrounds. In light of movements such as #MeToo and #TimesUp, the festival will ask some of the most important questions of the moment, exploring how theatre, music, art and poetry can have a part to play in social change. Shakespeare and Poland, a two-week festival commencing 26 June, will celebrate Poland’s affinity and fascination with Shakespeare’s works. The festival will combine theatre, film, illustration and song, and will feature the remarkable Song of the Goat Theatre Company, with a rare opportunity to see their Songs of Lear. This year also marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of Polish playwright, director and painter Stanislaw WyspiaĔski, whose one-woman play Death of Ophelia will premiere in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, and whose seminal work Hamlet Study will be published in English for the first time.

SANDPOLO 12/13th July 2019 The Sandbanks weekend promises another scorching line-up this July

Y

ear 12 and going strong! ere’s no stopping the enthusiasm of 1000’s of people who flock to the beautiful beaches of Sandbanks, Dorset, UK on the second weekend in July. What has become known as “e Sandbanks Weekend” or “e Sandbanks Festival in the sporting and social calendar of the South Coast of England continues to attract the crowds year after year. Curiosity brought people to watch high quality beach polo at Sandbanks for the first few years but since then the parties, hospitality, fashion shows and now a beach rugby element, not to mention the Sandfest music festival on the Sunday, has kept the audience guessing and wanting more. e heavily watered beach arena provides a firm playing surface, and when surrounded by elaborate marquees, staging and grandstands e British Beach Polo Championships, otherwise known as Sandpolo has become a must go to event. With a ticketed capacity of 5000 on site the polo can also be enjoyed by spectators along the beach from a raised sand platform. is gives polo, over the 2-day event, exposure to a wide variety of people and business platforms. e polo, played under the authority of the Hurlingham Polo Association, attracts 4 competitive medium goal teams of 3 players. Each team plays on both days with a further exhibition game on the Saturday. International teams are welcome and bring an interesting dimension. e event has welcomed Australian, South African, Argentinian, Irish and Welsh teams amongst others. A charity race is held between the 2 fastest ponies on each day in aid of the Household Cavalry Foundation. e fashion show, held in the main marquee, is the transition from the polo and sporting activities to the epic after-parties. e show features top designers from beach to leisure and evening wear. e beach parties that follow the day’s polo and the fashion show are a highlight for many. is year e House & Garage Orchestra, with incredible vocalists and DJs, will entertain guests until 1am at the Pure Polo party on the opening night. Radio 1’s Nick Grimshaw will host the closing Sandpolo Ocean Party on the Saturday. Tickets range from the Sandpolo Hospitality which gives holders access to the ringside dining marquee. Starting with a champagne reception guests enjoy a delicious 3 course lunch followed by afternoon tea and VIP access to the after-parties. VIP tickets are also extremely popular providing exclusive bars, loos and luxury

seating overlooking the polo arena. Standard Sandpolo tickets still provide the level of service that most other events would class as VIP. e seating, beach food concessions, bars and all day and night entertainment amounts to a fantastic chic but relaxed event experience with something for everyone. Ty Temel and TML Events have recently teamed up with Sandpolo to

run the event says ‘I am thrilled to be part of this unique venture. e location is priceless and the event format is sound. We have added some extra pizzazz this year that I know everyone will enjoy. Guests come along for many reasons whether it is the polo, the socialising, the parties, to see and/or be seen. Having been to the event for the last few years the one thing everyone has in common is that they all have a smile on their faces.’ Johnny Wheeler, the founder, is extremely grateful for the support Sandpolo receives from the council, local residents and suppliers ‘it is a pleasure to work alongside the newly formed BCP Council. e events team are extremely helpful and see the value that we can bring to the area’. Generous sponsorship from established brands such as Sunseeker, Barclays Wealth, Audi and Oakley has ensured the quality of the event remains high and guests are treated to the highest level of service. With continued support from the local authorities Sandpolo will continue to adjust to the ever-changing social dynamic while staying true to its competitive polo roots. n

Stressbusting Surrey garden collaboration wins coveted silver-gilt medal at RHS Chelsea Flower Show

C

elebrating success at the UK’s most anticipated horticultural event of the year, the Silent Pool Gin Garden wins a prestigious silver-gilt medal at the Royal Horticultural Society’s world-famous Chelsea Flower Show 2019, where innovative design and horticultural expertise combine to showcase some of the country’s most exciting and inventive gardening feats. Blending the passion and expertise of David Neale of Neale Richards Garden Design and University of Surrey academics Professor Tony Myatt and Professor Richard Murphy, the Silent Pool Gin Garden takes inspiration from plant technologies and the greening of inner city spaces. Born from the vision to create a space that absorbs stress through scent, sound and sight, the garden also invites you to consider the making of gin, the inventive use of recycled materials and the power of plants to create energy. Many of the botanicals used in the making of gin are represented in the planting and symbolised by a single juniper bonsai tree given its own floating shelf on the garden wall, while a striking hanging seat gives a nod to the distillery’s copper stills. A Perspex teal water wall etched with Silent Pool’s signature botanicals forms part of the garden’s feature aqueduct. Director of the Centre for Environment and Sustainability Professor Richard Murphy said: “After

careful planning and exploring of new sustainable technologies, we are very excited to present our united efforts at RHS Chelsea Flower Show this week. “With the help of engineering students from SurreyEARS (the electronics and amateur radio student society), intricately installed sensors orchestrate Tony Myatt’s natural soundscape, triggering sounds of birds and insects in response to environmental changes in humidity, light, temperature and wind. This, coupled with live electricity generation from the plant microbial fuel cells, has been a brilliant way to engage, inform and intrigue visitors, encouraging an appreciation for plants and the significant role they can play in wellbeing and sustainability.” Ian McCulloch, Founder and Director of Silent Pool Distillers said: “By collaborating with NRGD and the University of Surrey, we were able to create a garden that truly engaged, informed and intrigued visitors in appreciating the critical role of plants to their own well-being, as well as the futures of others. This has been a truly exciting project and we are absolutely thrilled with the outcome.” Elements of the garden will now be donated to Silent Pool Distillers’ chosen charity, Cherry Trees, which provides home-from-home respite care for children and young adults with complex disabilities in East Clandon. www.silentpoolgin.com

The inspiration for the garden came after spending time in the Surrey Hills, a place of unrivalled tranquillity. We wanted to find a way of using plants and technology to allow everyone to enjoy that sense of calm, no matter their location.” – David Neale

Our skin may be LO OOKFANTASTIC glowing, but our hair? That’s usually another story. “The sun and war mer climates can dry out the hair and cause split ends, and for many of us, leaave hair frizzy and difficult to style,” says Kerry Capewell, in-house hairdresser and technical adviser for Naturtint UK. “Summer holidays often mean time spent in the sea and the pool. Chlorine can significantly affect coloured hair, dulling blondes, reducing reds and even producing unsightly green tones.” Don’t we know it. Plus, with summers getting hotter at home, even a staycation can result in faded frazzled hair. “T faded, The sun can lighten hair and, in the case of coloured hair, fade the intensity of the shade significantlyy,,” Capewell warns. But it doesn’t have to be that way. “Remember, if you take the time to protect your hair before and during your holidayy,, less time is needed to repair your RITA HAZAN hair afterwards,” she says.

CO OVER UP “W Wear a hat as often as possible in the sun or, or if you have llonger h h hair ir, wear it in a bun so that much of thee hair is coverred,” says Capewell. “Iff you’re spendding time in the pool, wet your haiir in the shower w before you go for a swim. This enssures that the hair is saturated with unchlorinated water a first. “Oh,, and be sure to rinse yyour hair beffore you settlee back down on your sunbed.”

SPF FOR YOUR O STRANDS “In n the same way a you change your skincare in the war a mer months, the same should apply for your haiircare,” says Belle B Cannan, co-founder off Salon Slo oane. “Like wiith our skin, the sun can alsso damage ourr hair and scalp alp, so I advise my clients to o use yling products with an SPF for extra protection tection as thee weather th h heats t up. The new Sisley Proteectiivve Hair Fluuid protects against the harmful effects of the sun n, sea and chlorine and a can be applied to o dry dr or dam mp hair before sun exposure.” exposure Sally-Ann n Tarver, con nsultant trichologistt at the Cotswold Tricchology Cen ntre, advises: “A Apply ly a nutrient n rich hair oil in the mo orning before you head h to the beach to protect p youur hair from the sun n, sea salt and chlorin ne, then wash a it out when you return in the afternoon.”

TRY CO-WASHI A NG “To keep your hair exxtra moisturised, why not try co-washing?” says Cannan. “This mean ns occcasionally skipping shampoo and only using sing a conditioner to keep hair super-hydrated. Or, if you’re not willing to o part with your favouurite shaampoo, add in a deeep conditioning treatment ment oncce a week to lock in n moisture.”

DO OWN YOUR TOOLS “Iff you’re using heated styling tools in the evening, g, pop p them on a lower heat as it’s less harsh and intense to the hair - a higher heat opens the cuticles, allo owing essential moisture to escape,” Capewell

says. y “Heat p protectants, co onditioningg sprays p y and leaavve-in conditioners are also great, as they behaavve as a barrier between the hair air and the heat, and restore lost moisture.” Tarrver thinks you should go one step further: “Do youur hair a faavvour, giivve it a holiday away from the inteense heat and leaavve your straighteners at home.”

INVEST IN A TREA ATMENT Whether as a preventatiivve measure to make sure your locks are in tip-top condition ondition before you y go away, y, or as an SOS measure meaasure when you y return, a salon strength treatmentt can make mak a huge difference. “In nvvesting in a hair mask is essential to help hair keep its moisturee and shine, and to prevent breakage - overall, it will reegenerate the hair,” says Cannan. “Our new in-salon on Hair Filler treatment is ideal for clients returning ffrom sunshine-drenched holidays. It works to repairr the cuticles and refills the keratin which has reduced uced o over time, so hair is left unbelievably shinyy,, ssoft and strong, with an exquisite, polished lustre.”

SOOTHE YOUR SCA ALP Iff, despite your y best effortts, you do catch the sun and end up with a flaky sccalp, coconut oil is the answer, Tarver says. “Slath her it on, rub it in and leaavve it on for an hour or more more. When you wash your hair, the scale should just lift offf.. Shampoo your hair twice to remo ove the oil and clear your scalp of flakes. Combing tthrough your conditioner before and during rinsing also helps to remove flakes from your hair.”

THE PERFECT SKIN PRESCRIPTION With Frances Furlong

T

his month I would like to focus on getting your skin and eye area glowing for the summer, with wedding season only around the corner, here are some ways of achieving the youthful, fresher and natural look that we all desire.When we’re young, our skin renews itself approximately every month. e deepest layer of the epidermis - the stratum basale - is mostly comprised of keratinocytes and is responsible for renewing the skin. - Keratinocytes produce keratin, the protein that protects your skin from chemical products and bacteria. Keratinocytes slowly migrate from the basal layer up toward your skin’s surface, dividing and changing as they go. - As you age, skin cell turnover slows. As a result, dead skin cells build up on the skin’s surface, making skin look duller. When you age, collagen production decreases and your skin’s ability to repair collagen and elastin decreases, resulting in wrinkles and loss of elasticity. Young skin has thick bundles of tightly packed collagen while older skin has thin, loose bundles of collagen.

The Rolls Royce Treatment Perfect Power Booster Facial Although your body doesn’t produce as much collagen as you age, it will increase production in

response to damage. is is one of the key differences between young and old skin. If your body detects damage and leakage of plasma due to an injury, it will initiate the wound healing process to repair the tissue. is is why I have devised a combination approach treatment given on the same day. Step 1- tackle speeding up cell turnover using a retinol peel, glycolic, salicylic or mandelic solution. is is tailored to suit your specific skin concerns and skin type. Step 2 - replace the lost moisture and promote collagen. Fewer nutrients reach the epidermis, leading to thinning of the epidermis, slower cell turnover rate and a reduction in the barrier function of the epidermis. ese changes lead to increased water loss and dry skin. Skin cells have 30 percent less natural moisture. An infusion of Restylane Vital hydration droplets with fusion mesotherapy bespoke cocktail injected into the skin for an ultimate non surgical face lifting effect. Step 3 - topical Inspira Med serum boosters are applied followed by an Inspira Med Medical derma roller to stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process. e micro-injuries trigger the release of cytokines and growth factors that lead to remodelling of collagen and elastin. Minimal downtime, glowing skin immediately that keeps improving up to 8 weeks post treatment, results last up to 4 months, cost 350 I also offer a mid range treatment that combines a peel to suit your skin with mesotherapy face lifting which is a good introduction to those not wanting or not needing the power booster facial this is the Perfect Glow facial costs £150 - £200 n

Treatment focus Treating dark circles Fact - Lasers do not work under the eyes as all peri-orbital Melanosis is due to melanin. I have devised a treatment plan, 2 specific eye creams to be used twice a day with an SPF 30 premium Inspira moisture protector cream every am. 3 Derma pen tired eye treatments given a month apart as it helps to increase the penetration of these powerful creams, promotes collagen and helps blood flow. Course price £450 Individually products cost £150 (will last 3 months) Derma pen individual sessions £135 (£405) Saving of £105

TIME TO LIFT YOUR LOWER FACE LINES?

“After weight loss surgery I lost 13 stone, which was fantastic, however I was left with a lot of excessive skin, which needed surgical intervention. Despite my dramatic body transformation, when I looked in the mirror I saw a slimmer new me, but a tired worn out face looking back at me! Frances Furlong of Perfect Skin came highly recommended to me, after a thorough consultation she explained how volumising dermal fillers to certain areas of my face would replace the fat padding that once kept my face lifted and youthful. As you can see from a front and side view of my face, I have had an amazing result- I’m thrilled and my confidence has soared.”

Outdoor Living Inspiration For Every Home

A

s the temperatures start to climb, the hottest venue in town is just a couple of feet away. So whether it’s a patio, courtyard or rolling paddock, it’s time to start cultivating your Eden. Ranging from lush urban terraces to stunning alfresco kitchens, we’ve rounded up the finest outdoor rooms to reveal how you can get the most out of your space this season.

Inner City Edens For apartment dwellers, that small balcony or rooftop courtyard is your very own inner-city escape. Make the most of it this year with smart foldable furniture and plenty of designer planters. For those short on space, Ligne Roset’s Backpack or Moroso’s Banjooli collections provide a colourful injection of life. A little lighting can also go a long way with Contardi’s Muse Outdoor Lantern as the ultimate day-to-night lighting solution.

Sun Seekers With the Met Office predicting a scorching summer ahead, give crowded parks a pass and recline in style with your very own sun lounger. For lovers of Danish design, we recommend taking a look at Carl Hansen & Son’s BK14 Sunbed that can be transformed into a stunning indoor bench for use during the cooler months. Meanwhile, Bauhaus buffs will delight in Gandia Blasco’s new Timeless Chaise Lounge, a distinctive lounger inspired by the architectural language of one of the 20th century’s most influential design movements.

control and fuss-free cleaning. The only thing you need to worry about is the topping up the drinks.

Delightful Decking No matter where you are in your home, comfort should always be the first priority. In 2019, we’re taking a gentler approach and inviting poufs, sofas and rugs out onto the decking. Stunning natural fibres and weaves will have a welcome softening effect (see B&B Italia’s Ray Natural Collection) while complementary teak dining or lounge sets will emphasize the richness of wood. For those looking for something a little softer still, Paola Lenti’s collection of high-tech woven chairs are an ideal starting point.

Luminous Landscapes Lighting is one of the important aspects for an enchanting outdoor space, yet it’s often overlooked. This summer, search for lanterns, pendants and illuminated planters — all of which will help transition a summer garden party into a sophisticated evening soiree. Ones to watch include Pablo Lighting’s UMA Bluetooth Sound Lantern (8 hours of high fidelity sound paired with warm-dim light technology) and Foscarini’s new Twiggy Grid Outdoor Collection. At Chaplins, we believe in alfresco living all year long. All it takes is a little bit of design thinking. Visit us online or in-store this summer to discover Europe’s finest luxury brands all under one roof.

THE DETAILS 477-507 Uxbridge Road, Pinner, HA5 4JS. 020 8421 1779. www.chaplins.co.uk

Alfresco Dining For many people, there’s nothing more romantic than a meal in the open air. Our outdoor dining collections are here to help you rediscover that pleasure with an array of practical yet stylish solutions. From booster grills that heat up fully in just six minutes to stunning indoor/outdoor design, alfresco living shouldn’t be just for summer. We recommend kicking things off with a classic teak dining set from Gandia or Gloster before creating your own personalised kitchen with Röshults. All smooth lines and Scandinavian rhythms, they bring barbecues into the 21st century with full grill 5 4 JUNE 2019

WHY YOU SHOULD GO TO EACH VIEWING WITH THE EYES OF A TOURIST DELETE THE PRECONCEPTIONS

W

hen on holiday we take everything at face value; we usually have no preconceived ideas and therefore appreciate everything, the good and the bad. Whereas, when we live in an area, we have judgements, we make decisions based on experiences, hearsay and perceptions, which can often mean we miss out on incredible opportunities. Trust your estate agent. If they have taken the time to get to know you and what you’re looking for they can often get a sense of the type of property that would work for you, and this may not be what you have listed on paper. As they say on the TV programmes, it could be the ‘wildcard’ that finally wins your heart. Try to not make judgements without giving the property a chance, because in our experience you’ll be surprised, and leaving with a smile.

ENSURE YOUR EYES ARE OPEN Have you ever noticed that when you walk around the streets where you live you’re not always paying attention? You know how the pavement twists and turns, where the usual obstacles are; you hear similar sounds each day,

and maybe pass regular faces. Yet the more you walk this path, the more the details seem to fade away; you may notice the unexpected, but the normal simply just blends in. Just because you may know the area in which the home is situated, this doesn’t mean that you’ve really seen it. Go and investigate it as though you were seeing it for the first time, flaws may surface that you had previously forgotten, and the benefits could be singing their way to your heart.

ALLOW YOURSELF TO FEEL Lying on the sunbed looking out to the ocean and the sun beaming down, your worries seem to drift away, you just cherish the moment and embrace that holiday feeling. When viewing a property, so many things are running through our minds that we often don’t enjoy the experience. You should never feel rushed on a viewing and take your time to get to know the property; allow yourself to just enjoy the experience, and you will soon know if the home is right for you or not! Next time you view a property, think like a tourist and you will see the home and area with fresh and non-judgmental eyes to enable you to make the right decision for you. n

Katie’s Story!

G

erard’s Property Services proudly supports Teens Unite; a charity which enables young people, aged 13-24, to live with the reality of a cancer diagnosis together. ere are currently 16,110 teenagers and young adults living with cancer and the long-term effects in the UK; with 80% experiencing anxiety and depression as a result of treatment and 87% having lost contact with their peers. Katie, a young person supported by Teens Unite shares her story. “I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid

6 8 JUNE 2019

Leukaemia, just after turning eighteen. My life changed instantly; from the moment I was told I had cancer, I wasn’t allowed to leave the hospital. e biggest struggles for me were probably the psychological ones; knowing that you might die in the foreseeable future or wondering whether you will ever return to normal, takes its toll. I found it quite difficult to relate to the people surrounding me, and I often felt a little lost and isolated. I can happily say that my situation has drastically improved since then and I've now been in remission for just over three years. Teens Unite have played an enormous part in my psychological recovery and I think it is true to say that they were the tipping point for me to think positively again about my life. ey have given me a huge network of support and friends for life.” To donate and find out how you can support Teens Unite, visit www.teensunite.org or call 01992 440091. n
