Kent BallooningKent Ballooning have been flying over the
beautiful Kent countryside for 20 years and
as a local, family run business we still
believe that quality of service is of the utmost
importance.
There are few words
that adequately
describe the
exhilaration as you
first lift off in a hot air
balloon. You may
have seen us
drifting quietly
overhead in the
early morning or into
an evening sunset.
If you've ever
wondered what it
must be like, then
now is the time to
try. Our flights last
around an hour and
launch from
exclusive locations across Kent. On landing
we celebrate with a traditional champagne
toast or Spitfire for those who prefer beer,
courtesy of our sponsors Shepherd Neame!
Whether floating over the majestic spires of
Canterbury Cathedral, looking down at the
magnificent Leeds Castle, lifting off amongst
the aircraft and skydivers at Headcorn
Aerodrome or seeing the beautiful Kent
coastline from the skies, Kent Ballooning is
sure to provide an unforgettable experience.
We offer a range of Flight Vouchers, all valid
for 12 months, to suit everyone from early
risers to exclusive VIP flights for just 2
passengers. With prices starting from just
£99 per person, a hot air balloon flight is one

Seasonal Garden AdviceDid you know that in one year, an acre
of trees can absorb as much carbon as
is produced by a car driven up to 8700
miles? Trees literally allow us to breathe,
they are vital to our existence, yet most of
the time we take them for granted. Have a
good look around your garden or street.
How much do you actually know about the
trees in it? Can you name them? Do you
know how old they are? Are they healthy?
Getting to know the trees in your
immediate surroundings is the first step
towards preserving them. Here are a few
more interesting facts about trees:
• Research shows that people have
happier relationships and perform better in
tests when they live in tree-filled
neighbourhoods
• Leafy streets also encourage a lower
crime rate & a more "civilised" atmosphere,
even in poor areas, researchers found.
• The UK has the largest concentration of
ancient trees in Northern Europe.
• The oldest tree in the UK and perhaps in
Europe is believed to be the Fortingall Yew
near Aberfeldy in Scotland, and is thought
to be 5,000 years old.
• A hollow tree is often a healthy strong
tree. The decaying wood produced as it
hollows acts as extra food for the tree
which might even send down aerial roots
inside the hollow to make the most of the
rich pickings.
• Trees shrink as they become ancient,
becoming shorter and squatter. It’s a great
survival strategy as it means they can cope
better with high winds.

“Blooming Summer�”The Natural Approach
With the warm sun in the sky, the soft
grass under foot and the beautiful array of
flowers in full bloom its hard to see how
anybody could not be enjoying this time of
year. (Mind you, at the time of going to
press who knows what the Kent weather
will be like, but we can hope�) However,
there are some problems made worse by
the heat of Summer.
Some conditions are exacerbated by heat,
some even being caused by too much
heat within the body. Eczema can be
particularly bad during the Summer
months and a danger period (especially
for children) is the warm nights. It can be
more difficult to not scratch when half
asleep, causing skin to break and be more
susceptible to infection. A soothing wash
with cooled and refrigerated chamomile or
peppermint tea may
provide some relief. The latter has the
benefit of also being a mild insect
repellent too! Keep the tea refrigerated
once made, and discard after 48 hours.
More difficult cases may respond to a
cream made from chickweed – this helps
cool the skin, heal and relieve the ‘itchy’
sensation. Chronic cases of eczema may
require consultation with a qualified
Medical Herbalist to
address the
condition internally
too, do feel free to
contact me for
advice.
So� what about
insect bites? Some
lucky people don’t
get bitten. However
others know they
will be covered in huge, inflamed bites
once the insects appear. To reduce
inflammation, relieve the itch and provide
antiseptic protection try applying diluted
lavender essential oil. Combination herbal
creams are available too should you want
something else, or as a repellent – do give
me a call should you need something. If
you are prone to being bitten you might
benefit from a consultation, it may be that
the toxic load of your body is too great and
there may be changes you can make to
make you less susceptible. A prescription
maybe necessary to help balance your
body – hypersensitivity to bites can be
indicative of a poorly functioning immune
system. Lynda Jones

Helping older people
stay independentProviding Information & Advice
What does your role involve?
My role is to help our clients by
giving up-to-date information and
advice, allowing them to maintain
their independence wherever
possible. An example of how we can
help is that we are able to work with
clients to ensure that they are
getting the benefits they are entitled
to. We will not charge you for our
service, and if we can’t help, we’ll
put you in touch with people who
can.
What type of information and
advice is available?
One of the main areas we are able
to help with is benefits advice and
form filling. This means that we can
help you to make sure you are
getting all of the benefits that you
are entitled to, and give as much
help as needed to complete the
forms required. We offer our service
either at Age Concern Lyminge or in
your own home.
We also help with applications, and
checking bills, such as your gas or
electric bill, if you
have any concerns. Applications
may include those for your free bus
pass, blue parking badge, and much
more.
What other information might I
find useful?
We have a huge range of
information available, from details of
home food delivery services to
specialist clothing. The aim of my
role is to connect people with the
information and services they need,
and by doing this we aim to promote
independence and help older
people live the way they would like
to.
How can I find out more?
Please do call on 01303 863861.
Our service in Lyminge operates
between 9.30am and 3.30pm,
Monday to Thursday. Please be
aware that although Age Concern
concerntrates on those aged 50
plus, we can also help those who
are younger and concerned about
their parents.
Look out for further information about
Age Concern in the next edition.
Over the coming editions of the handbook, we will be bringing you a series
of articles about your local Age Concern, to ensure that everyone is aware
of the services they provide, which are available to all older adults.

surrounding areas by providing a Helicopter
Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) and air
ambulance service for the benefit of the
community.
Responding swiftly to 999 calls, the Kent Air
Ambulance can deliver its highly skilled team
of Doctors and Critical Care Paramedics to the
scene of an accident or medical emergency
within minutes. Kent Air Ambulance is one of
18 independent Air Ambulance operators and
receiving no funding from the National Lottery

generosity of the public to support the
helicopter. Every penny of the £1.6 million it
costs each year to keep the life saving
helicopter in our skies 365 days a year comes
from individuals, groups, businesses,
companies and clubs from all over Kent. It is
thanks to the generosity of our supporters that
the Air Ambulance has flown over 12,000
missions and continues to be available to
every person living, working and travelling
through our county, should they ever need it.

ACUPUNCTURE
Physical and Emotional Wellbeing
for Adults and Children
Do you want complete strangers making
decisions about your finances and
personal welfare if you are not able to?
That is what can happen if you do not have a
Lasting Power of Attorney in place. Your
husband, wife, son, daughter, mother, father,
sister or brother cannot make those decisions
for you, it doesn’t work that way.
Should you lose your mental capacity through
for example an accident, illness or a stroke and
do not have a Lasting Power of Attorney in
place then the problems begin: Your bank
accounts including joint accounts along with
pension payments and if you are in receipt of
any benefits can be frozen. An application
must be made to the Court of Protection for
someone to manage your affairs (which maybe
refused). The whole process can take up to
three months or more, possible costs can rise
to over £1000 and strict parameters will be laid
down by the court that must be followed as
well as possible supervision which will have to
be paid for. All this at a time when it is
needed least; your family is already trying to
cope with the emotional stress & strain of your
illness or accident, they do not need the
additional burden of financial restraints. In 24
months the Court of Protection took control of
£3.2 billion of assets of individuals who had
lost their mental capacity against the wishes of
relatives and in 12 months charged £23 million
in fees. This is not hearsay; this is real life.
Remember it’s never too early to make a Will
or Lasting Power of Attorney, but often too late.Jaci Godman Irvine is an Estate Planner
specialising in Wills, Trusts & Lasting Powers
