APPEAL MEDICINEMA GIVE PATIENTS THE JOY OF CINEMA Scan here to fundraise, donate or find out more! mftcharity.org.uk Help bring the magic of cinema direct to those in hospital Every year many thousands of patients are admitted to our Manchester NHS hospitals. Many of those patients have long or frequent stays in hospital, leading to feelings of isolation, stress and anxiety, not only for patients but also for their families. That’s why, with your support, Manchester Foundation Trust Charity are bringing a purpose-built cinema to our hospitals, providing movie magic for patients, young and old. The cinema will provide much needed opportunities for respite away from the ward, creating special memories and positive, shared experiences with loved ones for thousands of patients and their families, all year round.

Raring2go! WHAT'S ON AND WHERE TO GO 13 Celebrating Chinese New Year 2026 On 17th February 2026, Chinese communities around the world will welcome the Year of the Horse, marking the start of spring in the lunar calendar. Also known as the Spring Festival, it's the biggest celebration in Chinese culture, lasting fifteen days and ending with the stunning Lantern Festival. Traditional Preparations In the days leading up to Chinese New Year, families give their homes a big spring clean to sweep away any bad luck from the past year. Then comes the fun part – decorating with red paper cuttings and scrolls covered in lucky messages. You'll see red everywhere because it's thought to bring good fortune and scare off evil spirits. Festive Feasts Family reunion dinners bring everyone together over dishes picked for their special meanings. Fish represents plenty for the year ahead, dumplings look like little gold coins for wealth, and long noodles mean a long life (no breaking them!). Children love receiving red envelopes stuffed with money from parents and grandparents – it's a way of sharing good luck between generations. This Year's Animal 2026 is all about the Horse, which represents passion, energy and a free spirit. According to legend, the Jade Emperor held a big race to work out the order of the zodiac animals, and the horse galloped in seventh. The Festivities Celebrations are a brilliant mix of traditional and new, with amazing dragon and lion dances, fireworks lighting up the sky, cultural performances and community gatherings perfect for families. It's a wonderful time for welcoming fresh starts and new possibilities. Head to page 4 to see what's happening near you... (Images from Moge Moge Art Education's craft workshops)

27 Raring2go! BEAT THE WINTER BLUES 27 Beat the Winter Blues: Simple Ways to Lift Your Family's Spirits When days grow shorter and skies turn grey, it's natural for children (and us adults!) to feel a bit flat. The good news? Small, intentional moments can make a real difference to everyone's wellbeing - and learning. Create a cosy corner Transform a space with fairy lights, cushions and blankets. Let children choose books or draw pictures whilst you read together. This dedicated wind-down time signals safety and comfort, helping regulate emotions during darker months when concentration at school can feel harder. Take learning outdoors Turn homework into an adventure. Learn times tables whilst jumping on frozen puddles, or collect natural treasures for counting and sorting. When children move whilst learning, information sticks better - and winter doldrums lift. Dance away the doldrums Put on favourite songs after school and have a kitchen disco. Movement releases endorphins and shifts stagnant energy - even five minutes of silly dancing can transform a grumpy afternoon into a productive homework session. Notice the light Point out sunrises, frosty sparkles on grass, or how cosy lamps make rooms feel. Teaching children to spot moments of beauty builds the positive mindset that helps them tackle challenges in the classroom and beyond. Winter needn't mean hibernation. These small, consistent practices help children feel seen, connected and ready to learn - even when the weather refuses to cooperate. Top Tip Get outside for a welly walk, kick through leaves and notice the colours around you. Fresh air, laughter and connection help children reset and lift everyone’s mood. Back home, snuggle up with a hot chocolate and chat about your favourite moments. Small joys build big resilience. Gill Deesi, Yalla Thrive – Coaching young minds to thrive @YallaThrive
