Arthritis can be a very debilitating condition to which osteopathy may offer a very welcome relief from painful symptoms. Contrary to common misconceptions, osteopathy is not aggressive and does not always involve high velocity thrusts to ease joint restrictions. We asked Osteopath Nicholas Coysh his thoughts on the practise of treating arthritis with osteopathy.

Said to be one of the healthiest, many people extol the virtues of eating a Mediterranean diet, which is largely based on vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, olive oil and fish. And with Greece set to be one of the most popular holiday destinations this summer, following an 11% rise in the number of visitors from the UK in 2013, Greek speciality foods producer Gaea has created a hat trick of recipes using its authentic tapenades and top quality Greek olive oils to get sun seekers into the Greek holiday mood.

Occasionally something comes along that simply stuns us. Something so ingenious, or outstandingly simple, ethical, usable or just plain brilliant. For us, the Wonderbag is all of this, and more. The Wonderbag was created in South Africa for Africans. It has created 2000 jobs and 600,000 are in homes being used. It saves time money and fuel and because it works it is used. Because it is used, it works both for the environment and for our health.

I love a good cup of traditional tea. Nothing fancy, no added perfumes or flavours. No quirky combinations or fruity, floral blends. Just a great tasting cup of strong, well-brewed tea to satisfy my personal and individual taste. Discover your personal tea taste with some of the great companies we have in the UK, who are dedicated to bringing you your perfect 'cuppa'.

Congratulations to our winner Suzanne Jackson (Hampshire).
