A clever hand light, Indik8a introduces high visibility when indicating on a bicycle, providing another level of protection for cyclists in low level light.<\/p>\n<p>Lightweight and easy-to-use, Indik8a can be worn on a bare hand or over a glove and features an illuminated directional arrow that is activated by a switch on each hand. It is aimed at cyclists of all ages, from commuters through to parents who want their children to be more visible when cycling. There are two sizes, both of which are adjustable to fit the majority of adult and children\u2019s hands (children\u2019s version coming soon).<\/p>\n<p>Most cyclists riding at night wear some level of reflective clothing and use good lights on their bike. Indik8a understands that cyclists can feel most vulnerable when changing direction, as it often puts them into the path of a car trying to get around them. Although some gloves have reflective elements, these often don\u2019t show up when a cyclist signals, particularly compared to the brightness of rear lights and any oncoming traffic headlights.<\/p>\n<p>Indik8a was created to remedy this problem and to make sure that when a cyclist is indicating, their intentions are unmissable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndik8a offers a significant improvement in safety while riding a bike, giving cyclists greater control of their personal safety,\u201d commented Douglas Rushbrooke, Indik8a&#8217;s CEO. \u201cAs winter approaches, being safe and seen in the mornings and evenings is a top priority for those who rely on their bikes to get them to and from school or work every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The product has been designed and developed over a number of years, and nearly didn\u2019t come to production. Originally the brainchild of qualified pilot Alistair Malcolm, the project fell to his wife Evelyn in 2016 when Alistair sadly passed away. The team now consists of Evelyn, Founder Director; Douglas Rushbrooke, CEO; and Simon Rushbrooke, Head of Design.<\/p>\n<p>Together they have brought their combined entrepreneurial spirit and technical expertise to create a product that brings truly advanced safety to the modern cyclist. From children to adults, being seen by vehicles behind will give cyclists peace of mind on busy, car-congested roads, and may even save lives.<\/p>\n<p>Adult Indik8as are available to buy now from www.indik8a.com and retail at \u00a335 including postage. Children\u2019s versions will be available shortly.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-613944\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/73313842_119603242794490_6012470025556852736_o.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"615\" \/> \u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-613946\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/mK84lLIq.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"387\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-613947\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/cp7_WGrB.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"491\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-613948\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/73446335_115529393201875_5770063858077007872_o.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"323\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>PASSING THE TORCH \u2013 Sportswomen Who Inspire Edited Mary Peters <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>ISBN: 978-1-90247116-7 <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>\u00a312.99<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/oo1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This book is to inspire and support women in sport<\/p>\n<p>It is a series of short inspirational stories from established sportswomen across a variety of disciplines, whether in their prime or post competition. The book gives a lively insight into the stars\u2019 initial motivation, the highs and lows of competing, the physical and mental benefits of exercise, the camaraderie of female sport and what careers the stepping stone of sport can provide.

As Mary says in the introduction:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy message to all young people is: if you have talent, or even if you haven\u2019t, have a go. The opportunity for friendship, travel and good health is one which can never be replaced.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>About the editor: In the 1972 Summer Olympics Lady Mary Peters won the gold medal in the women\u2019s pentathlon.

Almost half (46%) guess what gifts are before they open, 36% admit to shaking presents, almost a third (31%) try to find where they are hidden, and 13% have even unwrapped and then rewrapped presents.[i] The new research is released as Birmingham\u2019s premier shopping destination announces the first ever free service which will disguise your Christmas presents through clever wrapping techniques, to avoid loved ones guessing what you\u2019ve bought them.<\/p>\n<p>Technology plays a part in the mission to reveal gifts, as almost one in 10 (8%) of those polled use computers or smart phones to find out what presents were bought for them. This rises to 17% amongst 16 to 34-year-olds polled.<\/p>\n<p>Almost one in four (24%) say that seeing wrapped gifts under the Christmas tree is one of their favourite parts of the festive season, and it is estimated that Brits are likely to wrap an average of nine presents this year. The nation will spend over 3 million days wrapping gifts this Christmas,[ii] and each of us will spend up to two days wrapping Christmas gifts in our lifetime.[iii]<\/p>\n<p>Three quarters of women aged 45 to 54 say that they take on the responsibility of gift wrapping amongst family members, whereas only 17% of men aged 16 to 24 take on this role.<\/p>\n<p>Just 17% of individuals say they are very confident wrapping presents, and the nation\u2019s put offs around wrapping presents include not being able to wrap neatly (according to 22%) and one in five (20%) says it taking too long. 62% also said it was important to be environmentally friendly while wrapping presents. Furthermore, 23% say that they recycle their wrapping paper each year.<\/p>\n<p>The new \u2018Under Wraps\u2019 boutique will launch in Birmingham\u2019s Bullring &amp; Grand Central on Thursday 19th and Friday 20th December, offering a free service to transform gifts from something that\u2019s easy to guess into festive shapes. The team of wrapping experts, led by the UK\u2019s most prestigious gift-wrapping expert Jane Means, will also provide more traditional wrapping options using recyclable paper to help customers have a more sustainable Christmas.<\/p>\n<p>Danielle Bozward, Marketing Manager at Bullring &amp; Grand Central, comments: \u201cThe anticipation not to open presents before you\u2019re supposed to is too tempting for many of us, but given we will all spend an almighty two days of our lives wrapping Christmas gifts, we don\u2019t want that effort to go to waste! We\u2019re on a mission to keep the magic of Christmas \u2018under wraps\u2019; and our innovative new offer for shoppers at Bullring &amp; Grand Central promises to transform guessable gifts and retain the element of surprise until the big day itself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jane Means, gift wrapping specialist for Bullring &amp; Grand Central Under Wraps, says: \u201cNo matter your confidence in wrapping, there are simple techniques to help maintain the element of surprise, such as concealing gifts of any shape and size using stiff paper and creating beautifully presented festive shapes. We\u2019ll be offering a helping hand with more creative options at the Under Wraps pop-up, and with more people looking for sustainable options this festive season, we\u2019re also delighted to teach shoppers how use recyclable materials but still have the wow factor under the tree.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gift wrapping specialist Jane Means shares her top tips to help conquer your wrapping worries this Christmas:<\/p>\n<p>Creating a gift bag shape is an easy way to disguise gifts which are easy to guess. This can be easily done using stiff wallpaper or brown paper and empty cardboard boxes<br \/>\nYou don\u2019t need to compromise on creativity to be sustainable with wrapping this Christmas. Spruce up recyclable brown paper by:<br \/>\nStamping with pretty shapes to create eye-catching designs<br \/>\nCreate a personalised look and feel by sticking on photos of loved ones<br \/>\nPleat paper before wrapping to give a more luxurious feel and add an understated ribbon for a classic finish<br \/>\nWhy not re-use wallpaper remnants to make fantastic gift bags and envelopes as they hold their shape beautifully<br \/>\nIf you run out of Sellotape, do not despair! When wrapping small size boxes crease the paper so it will hold itself around the gift and add ribbon to keep the paper tight<br \/>\nTissue makes a great alternative to paper and can help disguise gifts through moulding it into a style resembling a cracker or a bath bomb \u2013 secure with ribbon and no tape is required<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-616219\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/VW5rbm93bi0xLmpwZWc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"426\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-616220\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/VW5rbm93bmpwZWcuanBlZw.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"429\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-616221\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Sm9ja2V5IEFXMTkgUXVpZXQgTWFnaWMucG5n.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"445\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-616222\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Sm9ja2V5IEFXMTkgSGlkZGVuIFRhbGVzLnBuZw.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"425\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-616223\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Sm9ja2V5IEFXMTkgUG9ldHJ5IEdhcmRlbiAucG5n.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"426\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-616224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/VW5rbm93bi0yLmpwZWc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"426\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>GIVE THE GIFT OF HEALTH &amp; NATURE THIS XMAS<\/h3>\n<h3>PURESSENTIEL NEW CHRISTMAS GIFT SETS<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uk.puressentiel.com\/\">uk.puressentiel.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613860\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/10679542_813359282039609_1178224801129815591_o.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"420\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/puressentielUK\">FACEBOOK<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/puressentiel_UK\">TWITTER<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.fr\/puressentiel\/\">PINTEREST<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/puressentiel\/\">INSTAGRAM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Puressentiel, the French essential oil health and wellbeing brand has launched not one, but five essential oil-based Christmas gift sets.
