Bruce puts his heart into it! Certikin Sales Manager, Bruce Coppuck, took to the road to help raise £750 for the British Heart Foundation. Bruce cycled the 54 mile journey from London’s Clapham Common to Brighton Pier in an impressive five hours twenty minutes. “My family has been
affected by heart disease as my mum had a triple heart bypass just 18 months ago and still benefits from the help and support of the BHF,” says Bruce. “I have been impressed at how generous people have been in sponsoring me. Having initially set myself a target of £250 I was delighted to raise £420 and then Certikin’s MD, Neil Murray, very kindly offered to make a donation on behalf of the company to top it up to £750.” Bruce adds: “The
atmosphere was fantastic with a real sense of comradeship and of doing something worthwhile. I seem to have got off lightly as far as aches and pains are concerned and even managed to get back on the bike the next morning to cycle to work! Such has been the interest from colleagues that next year we are hoping to put together a Certikin Team!”

DALESAUNA LAUNCHES THE FIRST SAUNA ETIQUETTE POSTER
The iconic “will patrons kindly refrain from” poster from the Institute of Sport and Recreation Management is etched on the memories of generations of
swimmers, listing a multitude of offences which the all-powerful lifeguards would clamp down on with a piercing whistle and pointed finger. Whilst swimming rules are generally now understood, the protocol of using a sauna is left very much to the individual user and varies considerably from country to country. In response to this lack of consumer awareness and with a desire to help spas and health clubs educate their clients on the benefits of saunas, Dalesauna, leaders
in the supply and
installation of saunas and heat experiences, has designed a Sauna Etiquette poster for use by spa operators. This A3 poster is water resistant so can be used within a
heated area. Gerard McCarthy, Sales Director of Dalesauna says: “The sauna is at the heart of a heat experience but
seldom fully
understood, particularly in the UK. Our Sauna Etiquette poster is designed to communicate the serious messages of use and benefits but in a fun and familiar way.” Dalesauna’s Sauna Etiquette poster is available FREE to the first 50 spas to contact Dalesauna. Posters will then be available to purchase for £14.99 + p&p and will be laminated.
