Join us at PUSH Studios for a Pilates Workshop with Jenny Smith, specifically focusing on neck, shoulders and upper back issues on Saturday 22nd June 1.30 - 3.30pm/ £24 with Jenny Smith.

In this workshop we will look at our lifestyles and everyday activities that can contribute towards disfunction and discomfort in the upper body. These could be working at a desk all day, driving, cycling or watching TV from a squashy sofa - all of which can affect our mobility and strength. We will then look at what we can do about it by: practicing exercises to strengthen the muscles of the neck, shoulders and upper back exploring ways to increase safe joint mobility of the upper torso and neck finding ways to release tightness and tension especially in the neck and shoulder girdle learning about the connection between the function of the upper back and the rest of the body. At the end of the workshop participants will have learned and have access to a 10 minute workout which (if practiced regularly) will improve the posture, alignment, strength and mobility of the upper back.

PUSH Studios can be found in Blackwater Court, behind William Rose Butchers off Lordship Lane. Visit www.pushstudios.co.uk for more information and booking.

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
