UK’s first ever ‘Splash Zone’ for dogs unveiled in Chesterfield

An award-winning  Chesterfield doggy day care centre has launched a brand-new splash zone for our canine companions.

Rose Cottage developed the new feature, thought to be the first of its kind in the country, in response to the recent heatwave seen in many parts of the UK. It means dogs at the centre can enjoy playing in the water while keeping cool during the summer months.

Dawn Brown, owner of Rose Cottage Doggy Day Care commented: “I developed the Splash zone as this another petal to our Rose I am always thinking of ways in which we can be the best at what we do, and this means always thinking ahead,  we knew Summer was approaching and what is a better way to keep your Dogs cool than their very own a splash zone.

“We are a mini theme park for Dogs and playing in clean free flowing water with their pals is also mentally stimulating, great for joints and teaches the dogs how to play in a different kind of environment.”

Exercising in the water can have a number of benefits for dogs, as Dawn outlined: “Since water is denser than air, your dog’s movement through the water causes a resistance that is evenly distributed against their body, so this movement helps to work all of the muscles without gravity pushing down on their joints. The water is not to deep so at a safe level to play, get fit and strong while having fun.”

Dawn also commented on how exited the team at Rose Cottage was to bring the new feature to fruition: “I can’t tell you how much of a buzz I get when one of my ideas comes to life and I see just how happy the Dogs are playing in there it just makes all the hard work of getting it ready worthwhile.

“Seeing a dog leave an owner’s car in the morning and head straight towards my gate with their tail wagging eager to enter Rose Cottage makes it even more special. I’m so happy I can provide a little piece of haven for dogs in our town and I am constantly thinking of more initiative ways of adding to Rose Cottage. We also have our very own online shop www.doglanddeals.com  and more to come so watch this space!”

“To use the splash zone, you need to register your doggy with us. This is easy to do with our online forms at: www.rosecottagedoggydaycare.co.uk”

Rose Cottage Doggy Day Care supports the marketing and economic growth of the town through Chesterfield Champions, a network of over 200 organisations across Chesterfield and North Derbyshire.

New store for motorcycle and truck accessories opens at The Glass Yard

A store selling goods for motorcyclists and truckers has opened in one of Chesterfield’s newest retail developments, The Glass Yard. 

The Glass Yard SpeedShop has been opened by local company Securit GB Ltd; which was created by husband and wife team, Phil and Caroline Churm. The company has previously been based in Staveley and on Foxwood Road in Chesterfield.

The business has had to adapt several times since being founded in 2004, as a result of factors such as the 2008 recession and Brexit.

However, the company saw a sharp rise in online sales for its MotoWear brand during the Covid-19 pandemic. MotoWear provides unique motorcycle and trucker merchandise, with 75% of the product lines designed and printed in-house. The rest of the lines are manufactured in the UK.

During the pandemic, Securit GB Ltd also took the opportunity of grant and loan support  for the business, enabling the couple to invest in new print machines and time to design & create new exciting lines. This enabled the firm to return to events with an exciting new range.

Caroline explained how the company wanted to take the next step by having a physical retail presence at The Glass Yard:

“We want to open a destination for people to visit in person. It’s a unique open-plan shop, with the motorcycle, truck accessories, and merchandise, with additional space available for the design and print side of the business. We are also able to create one-off merchandise for presents and companies.”

The shop will be offering a ‘click and collect service for its online products too, and will be hosting events for bikers, starting on 2nd October 2022.

Caroline added: “The Glass Yard is an amazingly fresh & modern place to work and trade. As soon as we visited the place we knew we wanted to open a shop.

“We have always been located in Chesterfield, we love the people and Phil grew up in the area, the council has always been proactive towards small businesses and we have a lot of support in the area from family and friends.

“We hope that The Glass Yard SpeedShop will increase our sales and give the customer a different experience other than online. People want to stay local and shop locally. Since we have been open people are happy to visit and use a local company.”

Chesterfield’s Dawson Radford Solicitors announces new directors

Chesterfield Commercial, Business and Employment law firm Dawson Radford Solicitors have announced the joint appointment of Joe Phelan, Head of Property and Liam Kenealy, Head of Employment as directors of the firm from 12/08/2022.

As Directors, Joe and Liam will help drive the business forward and continue its growth strategy alongside managing director Jo and into its next phase of development.

Joanna Dawson founded Dawson Radford just over 5 years ago and the business has gone from strength to strength. A growing workforce signalled a relocation from a home office to commercial office premises and then an expansion into adjoining space to accommodate a new employment law department, new members of the team and the increasing number of clients.

On the decision to take this next step Jo says: “As a self confessed control freak, the thought of letting anyone help manage the business isn’t one I’ve particularly relished. But, as the firm continues to grow even I have to acknowledge that I can’t do everything, and in some cases, people can do things better than me! Thankfully, that has been the case when finding Joe and Liam, and as the business continues to move forward and grow I cannot think of two better people to help me with that challenge.”

Joe Phelan is a consultant solicitor specialising in property law and has worked for some of the largest firms in the North East. Joe has acted for clients ranging from individuals and SME’s to NHS Foundation Trusts and large Plc’s.

Joe comments: “It is a great pleasure to have been appointed as a director at Dawson Radford.  The firm is a fantastic place to work and the team is first class.  I am very much looking forward to continuing to develop our property offering and, most importantly, continue to ensure that our clients receive top quality, efficient and pragmatic advice.”

Liam Keneally has over 17 years’ experience as a solicitor specialising in employment law and has acted for both individuals and businesses throughout his career on a full range of employment issues, from simple wages claims to Tribunal claims involving multiple forms of discrimination.

Speaking about his new role in the company Liam added: “I’m delighted to become a director here at Dawson Radford. I joined the firm 10-11 months ago based on the plans Jo had for the firm and having seen first-hand just how good a job she has done to grow the firm to where it is over the last 5 years, I’m looking forward to building on that and continuing our growth and progression. It’s great to have Joe Phelan on board too given his experience, knowledge and contacts which will only help us continue to grow our Commercial Property department.”

Woodall Homes to expand footprint with £10 million funding boost

A North Derbyshire housebuilder has secured a £10m funding package from Lloyds Bank to help ramp up activity and capitalise on the growing demand for new homes.

Family-run Woodall Homes, headquartered in Barlborough near Chesterfield, delivers high-quality homes across the Midlands and South Yorkshire. It has recently developed new properties in nearby Mansfield, Tansley and Bolsover.

Founded in 2011, Woodall will use the funding from Lloyds Bank to increase its number of active sites, expand its footprint across the region and maintain high-quality development across its portfolio.

The homes that Woodall delivers range from two-bed to large family homes and have a strong emphasis on premium-quality finishes. With each property tailored to its location, they are designed to complement local surroundings and are built with sustainability embedded in the construction process.

The firm’s turnover has grown by 25% over the last three years, with Woodall completing 60 homes in the last financial year. Woodall is now aiming to break the 100-home mark this year, with a view to completing 250 homes a year within the next five years. To bolster this growth, the business is looking to recruit five additional staff over the next year.

In December 2020, Woodall received a £4.25m investment from BGF. This created a step change in the aspirations of the group to accelerate acquisition of land in prime locations, and to increase development activity and building output. Finding the right banking partner to support future growth aspirations was the next natural step in the group’s evolution.

Experienced non-executive chairman Derek Mapp has also recently joined Woodall’s Board as it seeks to scale and drive quality. Mapp currently holds the same role at outsourcing group Mitie and has also held chair positions at the East Midlands Development Agency and Sport England.

Ian Grundy, CFO at Woodall Homes, said: “As the demand for housing continues to increase, we want to ensure that Woodall Homes is in the best position it can be to deliver the premium homes that the Midlands and South Yorkshire need.

“We’re doing this by adding fresh talent to our team, and also by working with experienced banking partners such as Lloyds Bank. Their know-how and understanding in this area meant that they immediately bought into our building ethos and ambition to drive quality. The funding from Lloyds Bank opens many new doors in terms of development for the business and I am excited to see where this will allow us to take the company in the future.”

Jeremy Prentice, relationship director at Lloyds Bank, said: “Woodall Homes is an excellent example of a business that’s investing smartly and capitalising on demand. Housing is always high on communities’ agendas, and there’s huge demand from families looking for green space following the pandemic.

“Investing in growth, where possible, is a strong way of mitigating current inflationary challenges. We’re committed to helping firms like Woodall target growth and achieving their ambitions, and we’re excited to be by the businesses side as they target this.”

Woodall Homes supports the marketing and economic growth of the town through Chesterfield Champions, a network of over 200 organisations across Chesterfield and North Derbyshire.

BRM Completes Over 800 Plot Sales In 12 Months Exceeding £100 Million

Strengthening its position as one of the strongest property firms in our region, BRM Solicitors plot sales team had an incredible close to July having completed over 800 plot sales in the previous 12 months.

The BRM Solicitors plot sales team was specifically recruited in June 2019, in advance of large-scale instructions from several regional developers, based on staffing for success and business modelling to ensure that client needs were met from the outset and not in reaction, as is often the case. This has continued as developers have increased instructions.

In total, 846 homes were sold during the period, an increase of 38% compared to the previous year, with the average selling price increasing to £156,000.

This culminated in an incredible close to 30th June, with the team completing over 127 property completions in one day.

Sales across the regions on that day saw the department complete on properties as far away as Cumbria, average values of around £153,000, total value exceeding £19 Million, with the final completion taking place at 11.30 pm.

Having already had a busy first half of 2022, the team, headed by BRM Director Stuart Taphouse, is predicting more of the same.

BRM Head of Real Estate Adrian Sheehan said: “The success comes on the back of the hard work and organisation of the plot sales team and we are looking forward to more completions in the coming months. The figures speak for themselves, but the positive feedback from our clients is particularly gratifying.”

The property team at BRM advises on all aspects of property management and transactions, including portfolio management, finance, and development with specialisms in hospitality, retail and shopping centres, and commercial and residential developments.

Chesterfield Community provides diamond anniversary to remember for local couple

A Chesterfield Care Home and the wider community came together recently, in order to provide a diamond anniversary to remember for  local couple.

Valerie and Harry Holloway celebrated their 60th anniversary on 11 August 2022, with help from Crown Care Group’s Belvedere House Care Home, local councillors and residents.

The idea to treat the coupe to a big celebration came about a few days before the anniversary, when County Councillor Lisa Blakemore introduced Valerie to Belvedere House and County Councillor Jenny Flood took the initiative to accompany her to a pamper day.

This was a significant change as Valerie had not left the house to socialise or participate in activities for quite some time.

With so much collective support and care, the team at Belvedere House worked meticulously over several days to make sure that the Holloway family would have a wonderful time. A special meal accompanied by champagne, flowers, and a beautiful anniversary card marked the celebration and warmly complimented the day.

Claire Adsetts, Customer Relations Manager at Crown Care Group said: “We are so humbled and overjoyed to be able to play a part in such a significant event, to share responsibility within our community. We would like to thank our county councillors for their great work and trust in us.”

Shiva Sheikholeslami, Belvedere House Home Manager, said: “our ethos is to raise awareness about good practice in Care and set an example by providing the best service to the elderly in our care home. In turn, we are rewarded by the satisfaction and pride expressed by our residents. We achieve this by continuously collaborating with the fantastic Chesterfield community on projects that can make a difference.”
