The Local Reach

20/08/2024

Part of our charity aims is to support the development and improvements to mental health and wellbeing.

Following approval by Coventry University Research Ethics Committee this project is an online interview to explore parents’ experiences of coming to the realisation that their child has engaged in self-harm behaviour.

If you would be willing to help with research please consider completing an online interview. The interview should take approximately 60 to 90 minutes and can be conducted at a convenient time and date to be arranged.

All answers and results from the research will be anonymous so participants will not be identifiable in the reporting of the results. Research data will be securely stored in line with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). A summary of the results will be sent to participants following their participation if they wish.

All details including contact details for the study are in below graphic.

🏖️ Planning a beach day with your pup?

It's essential to pack everything you need to keep them safe and happy.

Don't forget to bring:

✅ Plenty of water to keep them hydrated
✅ Toys to keep them entertained
✅ A shady spot for them to rest (This could be a pop up tent)
✅ Snacks and treats are always a good idea for a rewarding break

Remember to rinse off any sand and salt water before heading home 🌊

With these essentials, you're all set for a fun-filled beach day with your furry friend! 🐾

We pride ourselves on providing a calm and comfortable environment for all pets. If your furry friend needs a nail trim, book an appointment with us and see the difference professional care can make! ✨

Keeping our furry friends cool in the summer heat has been our main focus! 🌞🐾

While many of our clients have done a fantastic job ensuring their pups stay safe indoors, we’ve been there for those who needed a little extra help.

From providing cooling coats and shaded, shorter walks to slow, leisurely strolls and plenty of refreshing water, we’re committed to making sure every dog stays comfortable and happy.

Here’s to keeping tails wagging all summer long! 💦🐶

👩🏼‍💻Lots of issues this weekend with the backlash of the worldwide IT outage, what I will say is I’m here for my clients around the clock! 🙋🏼‍♀️

The good news is that all my clients are either back home safe and sound or managed to get away. I have heard some real horror stories that have been heart breaking with families having cancelled holidays and reaching out to me to help due to the lack of service and support when they book with companies online or closed shops.

🫶🏼One thing I pride myself on with my business and that is being accessible to my clients day and night, whether on holiday or have any pre departure questions.

Purchasing that holiday each year is a big decision and investment, ensuring it’s the right holiday and everything runs smoothly because let’s face it it’s your hard earnt cash that pays for it. Booking with me should be no different price wise than booking online or in a shop but with me you get my personal service which is more important than ever.

So if you are looking to get your next holiday booked or looking for next year why not reach out with your holiday enquiry today… 📲 07971391839 🙋🏼‍♀️

Gemma's Pet Services keep on shining and doing your thing, noticed far and wide for being so amazing.

Well done.

*Best Businesswomen Awards 2024 Finalists announced.

*UK Female Entrepreneurs Demonstrating Tenacity

*The Best Businesswomen Awards have announced their finalists for 2024, all outstanding examples of exemplary female entrepreneurs.

*Over the past twelve months, the business climate has tested entrepreneurs' resilience, and these determined and resourceful businesswomen have continued to drive their businesses forward.

*The judging panel was impressed by the creativity, tenacity, and excellent business acumen demonstrated by the selected finalists.

*The Best Businesswomen Awards are designed to recognise the achievements of female entrepreneurs from a wide range of industries. All of them excel in their chosen fields and have demonstrated their impact in their entries, underscoring the significance of their achievements.

*Local businesswoman Gemma Cardwell from Ettington, Stratford Upon Avon has been shortlisted as a finalist in the Best Business Women in Animal Services Award. Gemma's Pet Services has recently won two other awards in the last 3 months and are hoping the winning streak continues. Gemma’s leadership is exemplified by her and her team's unwavering dedication to providing love and care to all pets throughout Warwickshire.

*Debbie Gilbert, the organiser of The Best Businesswomen Awards, said, ‘This is the 10th year of these prestigious awards, and despite tough trading conditions businesses have faced over the past few years, these businesswomen have powered forwards. Our judging panel, all business experts, were impressed by the quality of the entrants. All our finalists are incredible examples of successful female entrepreneurs who have proved their success to our judges.’

*Gemma’s said “I cannot believe it! Never in a million years did I expect to be honored with winning two awards, but to be announced finalised of a 3rd is just astonishing. 2024 was the year I said to my team that I wanted us to be recognised for the hard work and dedication we put into looking after the pets and community we serve, and here we are! Not only that but I have my partner Jodi supporting me both within the business and as we grow our family. I am so excited, and I am looking forward to meeting all the other incredible finalists in October”

*The Gala Awards night will be held at the Hilton Syon Park in London on 11th October 2024 when the Gold Winners of each category will be announced.

Autism is:
Unable to speak, or maybe speaking too much
Hugging everyone, or disliking touch
Escaping outside,
Or trying to hide
Excitedly flapping
Inappropriate clapping
Autism varies so much
Won't wear a coat, or wears one all year round
Fussy eater, or would eat dirt from the ground
Screaming or humming
Annoyingly drumming
Toys in a line
The same way every time
Autism varies so much
Struggling to learn, or has wonderful gifts
Obsessions of numbers, trains, films or lifts
Spinning around
Throws things on the ground
Constantly spitting
Aggressively hitting
Autism varies so much
Alone without friends, or controls every game
Always looks different, always dresses the same
Swinging on doors
Head banging on floors
Freaks at the dryer
Keeps climbing higher
Autism varies so much.
Can't answer questions, won't do as their told
In their own world or bossy and bold
Over prepared
Anxious and scared
A spectrum so wide
But they all bring us pride
When autism touches our lives.
