Tree Planting on Cheam Rec

mary_friends-of-cheam-park_park

The Friends of Cheam Park, are planning to plant more Trees on Cheam Rec. This is to not only enhance the Rec, but also create a more wildlife friendly area and as the trees grown, will reduce the amount of water run off from Cheam Rec.

We have 40, 5 year old trees, which stand at around 1.5 – 2 meters high and over 100 saplings, which will only need to be dug in with a trowel.

The Friends of Cheam Park, with the help of local residents have now planted over 200 trees on the Rec. They have made a real difference the area. They make what was a very boring part of the Rec, with just mown grass, a real feature, which people take pleasure in visiting.

We are also hoping to secure funding for a footpath to go across the Rec, connecting the pavilion with the path down into Nonsuch Woods. All of which will make the Rec more accessible. It will also make it easier for families to walk to Little Oaks from North Cheam, rather than have to drive.

It will be on Saturday 26th November at 10 – 1pm.

PRESS RELEASE

Over 70% of small business owners from Surrey said they do not intend to conduct a business review

April is a month when new financial years start for small businesses and the previous month ought to be a time when owners of these businesses ought to conduct a financial business review but that doesn’t appear to be the case.

Over 70% of small business owners from Surrey said they do not intend to conduct a business review before their new financial year of their businesses according to a survey conducted by GENIC Business First.

‘Some small business owners suffer from the ostrich effect. They prefer to bury their heads in the ground rather than review how their businesses have performed. If they did [conduct a review] they could identify weaknesses in their businesses and plan ahead to minimise against threats which are likely to impact their businesses in the next financial year.’ suggested a spokesperson at GENIC Business First.

Profit and loss and balance sheets from the past financial year reveal valuable insights into a business’ past performance. They provide the required data to measure for e.g. how effective a business is turning its assets into cash in order to meets it short term obligations as well as other key performance metrics.

A financial business review is a wise decision in the current climate because of the potential negative impact on UK businesses caused by U.S. political instability, global economic fears and the upcoming EU referendum on the British economy (BDO Business Trends Survey). A review can assess how fit a business is against these potential threats.

GENIC Business First, itself a business in Surrey, is launching a financial review business package specifically for small businesses in Surrey with 50% off their normal price. They conduct a thorough assessment of a business’ financial statements and deliver a detailed report with recommendations. If you would like to
