THE LATEST NEWS FROM YOUR AREA HOW TO HAVE A GREENER CHRISTMAS AND CUT YOUR WASTE Christmas is always a time of excess; excess food; excess booze; excess waste... In the UK we create 30% more waste than usual over Christmas and Worcestershire County Council is encouraging residents to think about the waste their households are producing. It is estimated that 2million turkeys, 17.2 million sprouts and 74 million mince pies go uneaten every year. Add this on top of 6 million Christmas trees and 1 billion Christmas cards, that is a massive amount of waste being produced. There are many ways to help cut your waste and these can be seen on www.letswasteless.com, but the easiest ones are: • Save paper by sending e-cards. Or make a donation to charity in lieu of Christmas cards;
• Don't buy glittery cards and paper – they can't be recycled; • Check if your wrapping paper can be recycled by doing the "scrunch test" – if it springs back when scrunched up, it's probably plastic based and needs to go into your black bin; • Buy gift experiences rather than physical presents. • Shop locally when buying the food for Christmas Day; • Use the portion calculator on www.lovefoodhatewaste.com to make sure you don't over cater. If you do, use your freezer as your friend and freeze what you can; • If you have gone overboard on boxes of biscuits and chocolates, why not donate
them to a local food bank; • After Christmas, remember to use your nearest Household Recycling Centre to recycle all your extra packaging, cans and bottles and use charity shops or go online to reuse children's toys and bikes that have been superseded.
Remember – the main sources of extra rubbish are packaging, cardboard, glass, drinks cans and food, most of which can be recycled or composted-make it your New Year resolution to slim your bin! n Check www.letswasteless.com for what to do with all your waste and recycling and have a great waste free Christmas!
Bromsgrove might be feeling the winter chill, but it's warm and festive at Artrix!
In a break from the tradition of the last few years, we're taking this year's festivities inside to the warmth of the foyer and stage, as Artrix hosts a Winter Weekender of festive family events, live music, food and good cheer! The Winter Weekender festivities begin on Saturday 7 December from 11am for a fun-filled family day inspired by the festive classic The Polar Express (Cert U). Come dressed in your pyjamas and be whisked away on a magical adventure to the North Pole with a screening of the best-loved film The Polar Express, a free hot chocolate for every child, followed by festive music and activities in the foyer. Tickets for this magical event are just £7 for adults, £5 for children or £20 for a family of four. The wonder never fades for those who believe! Later the same day, Artrix welcomes legendary folk collective Quill for their Christmas Concert. From 8pm, lead vocalist Joy Strachan-Brain heads up the seven piece band in an eclectic mix of Christmas favourites. Expect stylish covers of well-known Christmas songs, Fairytale In New York, Rocking Around
The Christmas Tree and Happy Christmas
(War is Over) plus original songs such as Grey Goose Call. Get ready for a fabulous night of music. Tickets for Quill Christmas Concert are £20 each. But the very next day... on Sunday 8 December Artrix is screening latest rom-com Last Christmas (Cert 12A) at 11am. Starring Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones) and Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians), Last Christmas is a romantic comedy inspired by a George Michael beat. Kate (Emilia Clarke), harumphs around London, a bundle of bad decisions accompanied by the jangle of bells on her shoes. When Kate meets Tom (Henry Golding) on the job as an elf in a Christmas shop, her life takes an unexpected turn. As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two. But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you gotta listen to your heart … and you gotta have faith. Last Christmas features the music of George Michael, including the bittersweet holiday classic of the film's title. Audiences are encouraged to get into the Christmas spirit by sporting their very best

Tickets for Cara Dillon are £23.50 each. Throughout the Winter Weekender there will be festive music in the foyer and mince pies in the cafe. The merriment continues throughout December with a great mix of live theatre including Little Star Baby Show on 17 December and Santa's Christmas Countdown on 23 & 24 December, along with All & Sundry's Panto, Snow White from 14 December.

Just Fabrics Managing Director Ross Pieters is proud to be investing in the new location in Cheltenham: 'I am delighted to have found the perfect opportunity to support this vibrant and thriving Regency town.

Their broad customer base, ranging from individual homeowners and crafters to professional interior designers, are offered an 'Aladdin's Cave' of competitively priced soft furnishing fabrics and services.

New Girls Football Team Nets
Sponsorship From Local Housebuilder
A new football team created for girls aged 9 and under has bagged sponsorship from housebuilder, Bloor Homes, which is building The Grove at Worcester development off Oak View Way, to the west of the city. West Worcester Youth FC, which was set up four years ago, has secured kit sponsorship from Bloor Homes for its new under 9 girls' team. Simon Hill, Chairman of West Worcester Youth FC, said: "There is very little funding for grassroots football, so we rely on the support of local businesses, like Bloor Homes, to help us make football accessible to as many children as possible in the local community. Sally Holt, Regional Senior Sales Manager at Bloor Homes Western, added: "We are always looking for ways to contribute to the local communities where we build new homes and are particularly pleased to be able to support a new girls' team, providing opportunities for more young girls to access the sport."
The Grove at Worcester is a superior development of two-, three- and fourbedroom homes and two- bedroom apartments off Oak View Way, only 3 miles from Worcester city centre. Potential housebuyers can view the new three-bedroom The Heywood and four-bedroom The Wyatt and The Brooke house-type showhomes. The houses at The Grove at Worcester are all available to buy with the Government Help to Buy scheme. It enables buyers to secure a new home with just a five percent deposit and a 75 percent mortgage. The remaining 20 percent is provided as a Government equity loan, which is interest free for the first five years. The scheme is currently available on homes up to the value of £600,000. With its location on the outskirts of Worcester and with good travel links into the city and nearby towns and cities including Hereford, Cheltenham and Gloucester, The Grove will be attractive for a variety of house hunters, from first-time buyers and downsizers to growing families. Strong demand is anticipated from the local community. To find out more about the homes available at The Grove, please call {have requested no. from Space & Time} or visit www.bloorhomes.co.uk n

Snow White at The Regal Over the past six years the professional pantomime at The Regal in Tenbury had been growing in style, quality and reputation. Once again this year promises to be even bigger and better with it's very own in house production of 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'. The cast of professional actors will be supported by 28 junior ensemble cast members who have all been individually selected from Tenbury and the surrounding areas. From Wednesday 18 December through to January 3 there will be a total of 28 performances including 14 matinees and one special relaxed performance on Thursday 2 January. It's best to book your tickets early though, as some performance have already sold out! Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs promises to bring everything you want from a pantomime to the Regal including laughs, audience par ticipation, singing, dancing and a little bit of cheekiness! And of course, a Pantomime is not a Pantomime without a Wicked Queen to boo and hiss at and a Dame to make you laugh (and possibly blush), all framed around a classic fairytale love story that has been passed down through the ages. All the music will be performed live by professional musicians adding to the atmosphere and experience of this quality production. n Tickets are available from regaltenbury.co.uk or from box office on 01584 811 422

Christmas is fast approaching and if you're stuck of ways to decorate, why not adorn the house in a Narnia inspired Winter Wonderland, full of enchanting decorations and timeless elegance. A white Christmas is not always guaranteed, but you can get a feel for a crisp winter evening by bringing the outdoors in. White for the snow, pale blue for the cold sky and evergreen colours, blend together with silvery metallic tones to make the perfect magical space. Warm the space up by adding different textures such as pale wood, faux fur and frosted glass. We take a closer look at the different ways you can bring your home to life and get in the festive spirit. The Tree Modern Christmas trees originated during the Renaissance of early modern Germany. Usually an evergreen conifer, such as a spruce, pine or fir, the Christmas tree was originally decorated with paper decorations and edible treats. If you prefer a traditional look and want a real tree this Christmas, place
white ornaments along with pale green and blue accents to get a more crisp feel. Get the whole family involved and create your own
Grey & Silver Christmas Cushion - £9.95 www.dibor.co.uk
baubles and garlands made from white paper or even old newspaper. Snowflake shapes can add a simple wintery effect. Alternatively, choose a white tree for a dramatic effect and add in metallic decorations to add a frosty look. Darker shades look best on a white tree, but to make the overall look feel more natural, add a hint of red for berries or wooden forest animals like the beautiful silver glittery bristle owl pictured opposite from Dobbies Garden Centre or pinecones placed sporadically on the branches. If you prefer a more traditional look and want a real tree this Christmas, place white ornaments along with pale green and blue accents to get a more crisp feel. If you want a more minimalist look to your home, go for a simple tree and add simple decorations and LED lights that are made to last year after year.

So, as 82% of the British public want to attract more wildlife to their gardens and help the birds, bees and hedgehogs, Wyevale Garden Centres and The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) are providing 'wildlife guardians' with ten top tips on how to start creating safe, sustainable and environmentally friendly havens for wildlife to flourish through the cold season. Mark Sage, Head of Horticulture at Wyevale Garden
outdoor space you have and whether you live in the country or an urban environment, I guarantee you'll be able to see and support a range of species over the autumn and winter. Protecting wildlife over the cooler seasons is extremely important – it's also a great way of getting your children excited about – and closer to - nature." John Capper, National Account Manager from the RSPB, says: "Although feeding birds is important all year round, it can be life-saving during the winter – when food is scarce and the cold can take its toll. Birds need high-energy foods such as suet
balls or cakes during the cold weather to maintain their fat reserves to survive the frosty nights. Sunflower seeds and nuts are also high in fat, as are small black nyjer seeds, which are favourite of goldfinches and siskins, though you will need a special feeder as they are particularly small. Peanuts should be fed in a secure Nut & Nibble feeder to avoid birds choking. They can also contain a natural toxin which can kill birds so make sure you buy your peanuts from a reputable trader. Avoid bird seed mixtures with wheat and barley grains, split peas, beans, dried rice or lentils. These are added to some lower seed mixes to bulk them up but only attract the larger birds such as pigeons and doves. The better mixtures contain plenty of naked oats, sunflower seeds, and peanut granules."

Wyevale Garden Centres list 10 ways to transform your garden into a wildlife haven for winter:

that hedgehogs and birds can feed on. 2. Hedgehog homes and compost heaps You can make a hedgehog home from woodpiles, which will give the nations much loved spiky friends somewhere to hide, sleep and hunt for insects. Shelter is essential for a hedgehog's survival during the winter so choose a quiet spot that is unlikely to be disturbed from November to March when they will be hibernating. Compost heaps also provide another cosy location, so check for signs of wildlife before turning it and try not to empty your bin before April to avoid evicting any hibernating wildlife. 3. Nesting boxes for birds Put up a nesting box as small birds will use them as shelter in winter and often come boxes with a hole of 32mm is perfect for blue tits, great tits and house sparrows whilst open boxes will attract robins, wrens or pied site your nesting box to face between north and east, so that it's shielded from direct

Ponds Unless you have a very shallow pond, it's unlikely to freeze and will remain a crucial spot for birds to drink and find bugs and insects to eat at a time when other sources of food and water are scarce. Bathing's also important for birds as they need to keep their feathers in good condition and coated in natural oils to help keep them warm.

your own by adding a range of seeds, nuts and cheese to suet or lard. When buying bird food, always make sure it's high quality as lower priced foods are often bulked out with nutrient poor grains like barley, or large pulses like lentils and beans, which only the very large birds can eat. Don't put food out on bird tables or in open feeders as grey squirrels and other pests may get them before the birds! n www.wyevalegardencentres.co.uk

Female Chaffinch in the snow © Mark Hamblin 2020VISION
Bachelor Birds The familiar chaffinch in your garden may be joined by its continental cousins this winter. British chaffinches are relatively sedentary and largely resident, pairs stay together throughout the winter. Their Scandinavian counterparts, however, are migratory and move through Europe as their cold weather arrives – many arrive here in the UK and some will make their way into our gardens. Males spend their winters further north than females and juveniles, often congregating in large flocks, which has earned them the nickname of 'bachelor birds'. Chaffinches are traditionally woodland birds and the song of the male chaffinch was one of the first songs that I remember learning. It's hard to describe but once you've picked it out from other birdsong, it's easy to remember; some people describe the ending flourish, which follows a series of staccato notes, as sounding like 'ginger beer'. You can be fooled, however, as chaffinches have regional accents and don't always sound quite how you'd expect them to.
KEEP UP TO DATE Worcestershire Wildlife Trust @WorcsWT t worcestershirewildlifetrust G worcswildlifetrust.co.uk w
You're unlikely to hear chaffinch song during winter but come spring, listen out for the male proclaiming his territory; he'll sing his catchphrase up to 3000 times a day! As the breeding season gets going, the females take charge - choosing the nest site and raising the young (it takes more than 1300 visits to build a nest). The female birds are a rather dull colour compared with the flashy tones of the males but this is often the case in the bird world as it's frequently the females who spend more time on the nest and, therefore, need to be better camouflaged.
n 20 | Worcestershire Now | Issue 195 | December 2019 - January 2020
If you spend time feeding and watching the unfolding soap opera of birds visiting your garden you may have noticed that chaffinches occasionally have growths on their legs. These are caused by mites or a virus and whilst some birds can survive for long periods, complications can arise. It's one of the reasons that it's so important to regularly clean your bird feeding area; whilst many birds have adapted to our gardens, communal feeding in this way is artificial and can quickly spread disease. For more information about the health of wildlife in your garden visit www.gardenwildlifehealth.org. At this time of year it's really important to give our garden wildlife a helping hand. From creating a wildlife-friendly garden to putting out seed, your garden birds will be grateful during this time when their natural foods are much harder to come by. It's well worth looking at bird food producers like Vine House Farm, who not only deliver to your door but also help wildlife on their farm too. Vine House Farm also donate 4% of their sales to local Wildlife Trusts (£10 for new customers) so it's a win-win situation. You can find more on their website www.vinehousefarm.co.uk If you're feeding the birds and helping wildlife in your garden, why not consider pledging your patch for wildlife and help us to turn Worcestershire wild www.worcswildlifetrust.co.uk/pledgeapatch. n Wendy Carter, Worcestershire Wildlife Trust

or perhaps ham is more your style. For others, a holiday meal wouldn't be complete without fried chicken, fruit cake or salted cod. Depending on where you grew up, and where you live now, the seasonal delicacies that grace your table may be sweet, savory, or a little bit of everything in-between. So who looks forward all year to what? Including what the world thinks is our Christmas centre piece.

And hosting kucios is no small feat – this meal can take up to a week to prepare. For Lithuanians, the holidays are about spending time with family, so a week-long meal prep is certainly a great opportunity for families to get together and is likely why the tradition has persisted.

5. Panettone (Italy) Italy has numerous regional traditions when it comes to Christmas dinner. In some parts of Italy, they celebrate with The Feast of the Seven Fishes. This meal includes seven different fish prepared in seven different ways. More often than not, two of the featured items are baccala (salted cod) and calamari.

7. Christmas Pudding (UK) This dish goes by many names. Whether you call it figgy pudding, plum pudding, 'pud' or Christmas pudding, this dessert is a key Christmas tradition in England, Ireland and some parts of the US. Despite its name, plum pudding doesn't actually include plums. PreVictorian era, 'plums' referred to what we now call raisins, and because dried fruits are an important part of this pudding, it is how it earned its name. Primarily made of suet, egg, molasses, spices, and dried fruits, Christmas pudding is set alight with brandy immediately before it is served.

Dementia is on the Rise People with dementia in Worcestershire set to increase by 42% in next decade, with families struggling to cope. 13,696 people are estimated to have dementia in Worcestershire by 2030, up from 9,632 in 2019. The number of people with dementia in Worcestershire will increase by nearly half in the next decade, warns a report published today, commissioned by Alzheimer's Society from the London School of Economics and Political Science. The report predicts that as our population ages, a higher proportion of people with dementia will have higher care needs for longer, driving up the average amount spent on care. In Worcestershire in 2019, dementia care costs £374 million. This will soar to £652 million by 2030.
More than 60% a year of social care costs in England will fall on people with dementia and their families. Previous research by Alzheimer's Society has shown that someone with dementia will typically have to spend £100,000 on their care. Many are forced to sell their homes to pay for it. Alzheimer's Society released the figures as it launches its election manifesto ahead of the general election, 'Demanding action on dementia'. Kumbi Mandinyenya, Alzheimer's Society Area Manager for the Midlands Shires, said: "Dementia is heart-breaking for families. It's not right that those going through it have to battle to get the care they need on top of battling the disease.
n 30 | Worcestershire Now | Issue 195 | December 2019 - January 2020
"From the working mum struggling to find hundreds of pounds every week to 'top up' her mum's council-funded care home place, to the woman who had to sell her home of 50 years to pay for her husband's care – families affected by dementia are already at breaking point. With costs set to treble in the next two decades, how on earth will they cope? "The cost of dementia care is too much for an individual to bear. It should be spread between us – just like schools, the NHS and other public services. Every party must go into this election with a solid plan to radically reform dementia care. Families in crisis need action, and they need it now." CONTINUED OVER THE PAGE

Burcot Grange Care Home Celebrates 'Outstanding' CQC Rating Care home rated in top 3.7% of the country by health and social care regulator. Burcot Grange, a 40 bedded luxury care home in Bromsgrove which is part of the Cinnamon Care Collection, has been awarded an overall rating of outstanding following an inspection by England's health and social care regulator, the Care Quality Commission (CQC). The Outstanding ratings were given for being 'Caring', 'Responsive' and 'Well Led'. The report from the CQC highlighted the exceptional 'five star' level of care from all staff and the impressive focus on catering for the individual needs of residents. It singled out the General Manager, Vicky Osborne, for her passion and commitment to achieving high standards of care and the importance she placed on forging strong links with the local community and nurturing connections with family, friends and former residents. The report also stated that 'exceptionally good governance was embedded into the provider and the Registered Manager's
processes' and that best practice was at the heart of the care provided. The Inspector was also impressed by the choice of home cooked food and the fact that residents and their families were involved in planning their care and assessing their needs, even to the point of choosing the décor for their bedrooms. Carole Hunt, Director, Cinnamon Care Collection commented, "Huge congratulations to Vicky and her entire team who work tirelessly to provide the very best care and support to our residents, ensuring that their safety and individual needs are a priority at all times. Only 3.7% of care homes across the UK are awarded an 'Outstanding' rating so this a very significant achievement." Vicky Osborne adds "We are absolutely thrilled to have been awarded an 'Outstanding' rating by the CQC. I am so proud of the whole team who always go out of their way to ensure our residents live life to the full and that their individual needs are catered for. I
was particularly pleased that many residents, relatives and staff used the word 'family' when describing our services and that the report mentioned the 'genuine relationships' between staff and residents. This is so key to our ethos." During the inspection, a resident from Burcot Grange commented, "This home is amazing. It's the management and the staff, nothing is too much trouble." The CQC endorsement follows on from the Cinnamon Care Collection being recognised as one of the Top 20 Recommended Care Home Group operators in the country by the UK's leading care home reviews website, Carehome.co.uk - the 'Trip Advisor' of the care home industry, with over 123,000 independent reviews of care homes. n Burcot Grange, located on Greenhill, Burcot, provides residential care, dementia care, and respite care.

The Challenge.
What comes to your mind when you think of school cafeteria lunch lines? If you're like us, memories of glaring hot lamps shining on greasy pepperoni pizzas or slices of rubbery meatloaf come to mind.
Every year in the U.S., the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) serves 30 million K-12 kids 5 billion lunches — more meals than all the U.S.' McDonald's, Subway and Starbucks combined.
Take Action.
There are success stories of school districts that have put serving more plant-based foods to the test, reaping benefits along the way. For example, Oakland Unified School District reduced its meat and dairy purchases, saving water, cutting back on greenhouse gas emissions and saving money.
Why We Care.
Health: Bright, healthy kids need the right fuel! Did you know studies show that children who eat plant-based foods grow as tall or taller than their meat-eating peers? We can boost children's intake of vegetables, grains, fruits, legumes, and nuts by guiding them to eat at least one plant-based meal a day. Plus, kids who eat plant-forward diets are more protected from health risks like obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease later in life.
Environment: Animal agriculture is the #2 contributor to greenhouse gas emissions (more than all transportation combined) and the largest contributor to deforestation, water usage and pollution, and dead zones in the ocean. Also, land used for raising livestock and to grow livestock feed is the leading cause of mass extinction today as wildlife lose vital habitat to pastures and farms.
Join the movement!
OMD seeks to increase access to healthier, climate-friendly foods in K-12 schools with the help of people like you. Together with our partners at Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, Friends of the Earth and Chef Ann Foundation, you can join the movement to create change.
