Rachael completes the team and keeps the men in order with her secretarial skills!

Myself and 17 intrepid explorers embarked on ‘Beach Body Boot Camp’ throughout May, and the results we all achieved were amazing!

A 4 week intensive exercise and nutrition programme, it certainly lived up to its name!

Prior to ‘camp’ we were issued with a nutrition plan to adhere to, and we all joined Mel’s blog, which was to become a form of communication, daily motivation, recipe ideas and encouragement to each other over the 4 weeks.

Limited availability on all courses, so please call to book your place.

If you haven’t tried the new Italian Restaurant at Amoré yet, then put it on your list of must do’s for April.

Customers are still surprised by just how much the restaurant has changed, it hasn’t just been a case of redecorating and introducing a new menu, it is much more.

Men ---- Don’t die of ignorance or embarrassment

BE AWARE THAT:

1. Prostate cancer affects only men
2. Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer
3. In the UK, every year 10,000 men (1 every hour) die of the disease and there are 35,000 new cases diagnosed
4. If there is a family history of prostate cancer ie if you have a grandfather, father or brother who has had the disease, you are more than twice as likely to develop the cancer
5. If caught and treated early, prostate cancer is often curable.

How many times have you resolved to lose weight / tone up / get fitter on December 31st only to find yourself demotivated and depressed by your lack of results and improvement by the middle of February?

So many people start following drastic diets and other fad weight loss strategies, lose several pounds in the initial week or two (which is largely the result of water loss) and then find that their weight then plateaus.

Please Support the Frodsham ‘SHOP LOCAL’ Campaign

Many local retailers are worried about the loss of footfall on the pavements in Frodsham. Without your continued support many of our local shops could disappear. Already three shops have closed on the run up to Christmas.

Do you want this thriving 800 year old market town to end up like a ghost town with nothing more than estate agents and charity shops? It is all too late when they are gone and we hear people say ‘I really miss that shop, I used to enjoy popping in there’, but in reality how many times did they ‘pop in’ there? Once a week, once a month or just a couple of times a year?

Frodsham has so much to offer:
