money, although thatobviously helps. Manytradespeople havestruggled since last yearand I honestly feel thatduring the good times aminority perhaps didntfocus on customercare as much as theyshould have done. Wemake sure we turn upwhen we say we will,do the job the customer

requires and leavetheir house as clean asa whistle. I often getcomments back fromcustomers on how theyreally didnt expect thatsort of service which,in a way, is very sad forthe service industry as awhole.

Cloudy2Clear servicethe Chester, Wirral &North Wales areas andAlan is fnding that hisapproach is a major is

a major factor in hissuccess. The truth isthat its not just thepersonal satisfactionthat I get from doinga good job but also itmakes good businesssense.I get a huge amount ofbusiness from friendsand family of people

Ive done work for,which just goes to showhow much a little bit ofeffort is appreciated.

EstablishEd n 1968, we re

gence n e UK.

As I listened to the news this week

about the changes proposed to the

funding of Social Care, it saddenedme to see that there is still so little

inancial support for those who

wish to remain living in their own

home and yet need some care

support. Even with the new caps

and thresholds proposed, there

will still be a large group of people

who will not be able to aord care

at home.

The Bunbury Agency is pleased

to introduce the services of

Independent Consultants who

specialise in Care Fees Solutions.

Through SOLLA (the Society of

Later Life Advisors) you will soon

have access to advisors throughout

the country via our website. After

meetings with our local SOLLA

consultant, (who incidentallycomes from Bunbury!) I was shown

very eective ways of covering

the cost of elderly care now, and

planning for the possible cost in the

future, so things are looking up!

so why not conider

employing your own

Carer or Companion?

All Bunbury Carer Companions

are self employed, giving you and

your family the freedom to choosehow you are cared for, therefore

maintaining your independence.

We recruit on your behalf ensuring

that you have someone who

can spend just that little bit of

extra time providing personal

care, housekeeping, shopping,

transport and most importantly,

companionship.aNd FiNallY.As the government propose to

change the ratio of children to

Nursery Assistants, have you

considered the beneits of having

an experienced Nanny or Mothers

Help looking after your children at

home, or an Au Pair giving you that

extra pair of hands? This can be a

less expensive option and certainly

a less stressful alternative.

January hs come d goe, log with

the sow (hopefll the lst of the wite),

the festive seso is log fogotte, d I

dot kow bot o bt Im defiitellookig fowd to the fist sigs of spig.

For me, this is one of the busiest times of the year

because spring also heralds the end of the tax year and

if this doesnt prompt you to think about giving your

finances a spring clean, it really should!

Hopefully, most of you reading this column have utilised

your ISA allowances over the years, either via cash ISAs

or investment ISAs and even if youre not in a position to

make further contributions, it would be unwise to simplyrest on your laurels and assume that the ISAs you have

are still the best for you.

If you hold cash ISAs you may well have been shopping

around for the best of a pretty poor range of interest

rates on a regular basis, and perhaps even moving to a

different bank or building society to benefit from a better

interest rate.

What if your ISA holdings are equity-based?

With personal finance grabbing more and more column

inches in the press, many investors have accumulated a

hotchpotch portfolio of investment ideas over the years

as each ISA season heralds the discovery of the next

must-have asset class or fund.

And its easy to see why. The choice is potentially

bewildering. There are around 2,500 retail funds in the

UK into which investors can invest their stocks & shares

ISA allowance. Faced with the challenge of finding theright one, its easy to see why some base their decision

on whatever is the latest investment fashion, the most

impressive advert or the best claim to superior past

performance.

Based locally in Shropshire, where I have livedfor most of my life, I work closely with my

clients to fully understand their financial

aspirations, hopes and fears. I would like to

invite readers of Tarporley Talk to discover for

themselves my unique approach to financial

planning.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY"I would thoroughly recommend Carolyn to

anyone needing financial advice. She was very

patient, and when we had queries she provided

useful information to help us in our decision

making. I found her extremely knowledgeable

and she explained things in plain English!"

Yet it is a decision thats important to get right

Each investors objective will be unique to their own

individual needs and goals. Whether you are looking

to provide additional income in retirement, buildinga capital sum for the future or a combination of both,

ensuring that your investments are working together

is vital for your future financial wellbeing. Regularly

reviewing your portfolio is an important discipline to

help achieve this goal and a habit that we should all stick

to.

Selecting your ISA investment manager is one

consideration but regularly reviewing their performance

is an equally important factor. But how frequentlyshould you review your ISA portfolio? There is no right

or wrong answer to this question but the commonly

accepted view is that an annual inspection is adequate

for most. Identifying the strong performers (and those

that havent fared so well) is one aspect of the exercise

but, fundamentally,

investors should

be asking one key

question: is this portfolio still working to achieve my

financial objectives? Conducting a regular review will

ensure that your investments are working towards your

objectives.

Whether your portfolio needs a small tweak in one or

two areas or a complete overhaul, by working together

with your advisor, the process for getting your portfolio

back on the right course can be a simple and cost-

effective one.

If you would like further information, or indeedarrange a meeting to review your ISAs, withoutinitial cost or obligation please contact me on 01948840738 or drop me an email to [email protected]

Snakes and dragons at UtkintonRECENTLy, the infants at Utkinton St Pauls Primar Schoolenjoyed a Chinese dance experience as part of their work around

the topic of Chinese New year.

Chinese New year, held on the 10th Februar this ear, is to be

known as the ear of the snake. To celebrate, children learnt a

dragon dance, replicating the tpe associated with this famous

event. Dancing to a range of Chinese music, whilst hidden

underneath a colourful fabric, the children practiced moving in time

to the rhthm - working in careful co-operation with their class-

mates. The children also designed and made their own snakes tot with the theme, and celebrated with a party on the day.

had been selected to produce a lm

and accompanying article exploring the

safet of social networking sites for Safer

Internet Da.

Soon after, a da of intensivepreparation and scriptwriting ensued with

students researching the topic including

high prole cases involving the use of

Facebook and Twitter. A lm crew from

BBC Television Centre in London arrived to shoot the piece. Firstl, students were encouraged

to debate the use of Twitter and the dangers of oung people using such sites whilst the BBC

captured ever word. Aspiring reporters worked closel with online journalist Phil Harlow editing

the script read for the presenters Harr Warr and Annie Huntbach.

Later they were delighted to see that their lm was published on the BBC website alongside the

article written b Ellie Corlett-Moss and Annie Huntbach. When students realised a link to theirlm had been selected to appear on the main BBC News homepage for the majority of Safer

Internet Da the knew thed made it!

On 21st March the students, alongside more of their classmates, will be reporting news for the

BBC along with many schools across the country as part of the ofcial BBC School Report day.

Students will also be uploading their news items to the school website on this da and the BBC

website will link directl to it.

local businessesTHE Tarporle Business Alliance has been an on-goingproject for the past six years with its aims mainly focusing on

networking and general support for each business in Tarporle

and the immediate surrounding areas.

Recentl, Angela Bartlett and Katrine Lidster have enlisted the

help of two A-Level Business Studies and Economics students

Studies and Economics teacher Alison Wade. Together, we

would like to regenerate the Tarporle Business Alliance and

make it increasingl useful for all businesses in Tarporle sothat each business can support and work together to benet

themselves and each other as much as possible.

Within the next month we hope to have hosted our rst

Broadband speeds in TarporleyCONNECTING Cheshire is a joint project between local councils whose aim is to harness

government funds to bring high speed broadband to all parts of the count, writes Ernest

Boynes

The timing of the provision to an area depends upon the demand in that area as shown

b the number of residents and businesses that have registered. For Tarporle onl 63

potential users have registered! There are 1895 residents and 148 businesses on Tarporleexchange, but with only 63 registrations having been received, that is 3% of potential users,

this apparent lack of interest will put Tarporle wa down on the list for provision

In Tarporle, the most likel provision would initiall be FTTC (Fibre to the cabinet). This

means that the existing copper wire cable from the exchange in Park Road to the various

cabinets spread around the village would be replaced with cable constructed of bre optic.

Download speeds would rise from the current speed of about 10Mbs to 40Mbs, bringing

a faster and more reliable connection allowing people to watch TV or lms on line without

endless buffering. you will be able much more reliabl to contact famil and friends with

High denition video.

So if ou want high speed broadband in Tarporle register now at www.connectingcheshire.org.uk

Signiicant investment in the

upkeep and drainage of the

course itself makes Pryors

Hayes a regular go to venue for

individual golfers, societies and,

of course its loyal membership.

The course is open for almost

the whole year and, while it is a

comfortable distance to walk, it

presents an enjoyable challenge

to golfers of all abilities.

Golf is clearly its raison detre,

but Pryors Hayes can rightly

be proud of its wider oer

which has contributed to being

declared Club Mirrors Golf

Club of The Year for the past

three years. Mystery visitors

call into golf clubs throughout

the year and assess them on

their playing and practice

facilities (of course) but the

genuine friendly welcome, well-

stocked bar, alongside dining

and special family occasions

facilities and also,most importantly, on

customer service.

The Hayes

Celebrations

Marquee which

can hold up to 175

people leads into

manicured gardens

with a delightful wooden

pagoda central feature where,

as many have already done,

hold a civil ceremony, have your

marriage blessed or just relax

on your special day with friends

seated and gathered around.

Pryors Hayes really is the

perfect place for weddings and

other family celebrations.

The Club doesnt rest on itslaurels however, looking to its

future and the future of sport

by encouraging youngsters,

3-13 years, to take part in its

Tommy T series of golf tuition

from beginners to winners

with former tour professional

Roger Shutt.

So, as The Hayes reaches its

20th Anniversary, this year willbe marked with events and

occasions to give many people,

golfers and non-golfers alike,

an opportunity to get involved

in all that happens around the

club. And what
