New multi-million pound mental health wards open in Lincoln
We felt very honoured last week to attend the Open Day of two new mental health wards, Castle and Ellis, at Lincoln's Peter Hodgkinson Centre.
As proud supporters of the NHS, we appreciate any opportunity to show that support - especially when it means talking directly to staff and sharing their excitement at the launch of the new unit!
Based at Lincoln County Hospital and run by Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LPFT), the two new £25 million 19-bed wards will support adults who are experiencing a crisis in their mental health.

    I have it (130, manual 6 gear version) , and I'm generally happy about it. Pros: really light and fast car, spacious (I mean REALLY spacious for a city car - boot is bigger than in my friends Astra - 410vs370 liters), reasonably comfortable, and safe (5 stars), high suspension works in light terrain drive. Cons: gearbox is mediocre - it works, but not pleasant. For a mixed-use purpose (most in the city, sometimes longer drive) it's perfect car for me. I will never go back to hatchbacks (Corsa) after this - almost same dimensions (easy to park, maneuverable), but so much more space inside, you don't have to be afraid of the dirt road, and you can sit straight (you don't have lie down when you get in, like in sedan-type cars - it helps when you have passengers with motion sickness).

    • @mwmv921
      @mwmv921 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@andrewfleming6407 Actually, not bad - I have average consumption on 6,9 liters/100 km h (2/3 in the city, 1/3 on highways). And I like to go fast on highways:). The whole 'mystery' in small engines is to not accelerate rapidly (always keep RPM between 2000-3500), and you should be happy with fuel consumption. One more ting - keep the average highway speed between 120-130 km/h. Above that fuel consumption rises drastically. Difference in consumption between 120 and 132 km/h can be 4-5 liters! I don't know why - it's just this engine 'thing'.

      Hi! I will be picking up a Vauxhall Crossland X SRi Nav 83bhp 5 door Hatchback (2019) tomorrow morning whilst trading in my Vauxhall Astra 1.6 Se (63 plate). The wife has chosen this car however, I'm a little apprehensive about it. Firstly, I was completely unaware that Vauxhall's are now all fitted with PSG engines after going into partnership with Peugeot/Citroen. Over the past 25yrs I have had a Nova, Cavalier & 4 Astra's. None of these vehicles have EVER broken down, have been ultra reliable and like the everyday car, have only needed replacement tyres and servicing. I'm only hoping that these French engines are as reliable and efficient as Vauxhall engineering. I did notice when checking the gearbox that it appeared a little clunky compared to the Astra which, by the way are smooth as silk. However, you seem extremely pleased with the rest of your Crossland X. I think my nerves come from my Grandfather who used to say: "If it's not broke.......Don't fix it"! I hope we've made a good choice.

      Hi buddy, sorry for not getting back to you. The cars amazing mate. I had a few new cars over the years but I can honestly say she's the best so far. It's so easy to drive and quiet.. Me and the wife can have a decent conversation when driving unlike our last car. I often get caught out by trying to turn the car on when it's already ticking over as it's that quiet. Fuel is not bad either. I'm getting around 100 miles to £10 which is not that bad. On the motorway I've had 70 miles per gallon when driving at the right speed but mainly 60 plus. Not bad for 14 petrol. The different driving modes are cool as well. The sport mode makes the steering heavier and the suspension a little stiffer.. pretty clever when you put your foot down. It's nice to have plenty of power when you need it and boy is there some power there. Handbrake concerns are non existent now. What a clear bit of kit. Not sure on the hill assist when going down hill though. Sat nav took a little while to get used to but now I've changed it to 3d viewing it's much better. DAB radio has loads of channels to choose from and I've also managed to mirror my whole phone to the screen so I can actually watch movies when waiting for the wife whilst she's doing the shopping. so much more I could say about the car. I'm a very happy Seat owner at the moment. I hope it doesn't change. oh and no I haven't slept all night in it lol.

  • @RickUnwin
    @RickUnwin 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah it works along side with the autohold and just keeps you stationary when you want it. Ha yes the windows feature is very nice and classy it's a nice touch. Also works going back up. Yeah I bet that engine is nippy and I imagine you will get quite good mpg out of it too. Is it the one with the active cylinder technology that suits down 2 of the cylinders' when it doesn't need them? Im jealous of you LED headlights lol. But its something to look forward to on my next model ha. I think the 5 door is a nicer shape than the SC and obviously more convenient not having to pull seats back and forth when passengers enter. Some reviews have been having a go at it saying its a boring interior. Personally I think its spot on, good layout, feels like a really nice place driving it at night time with the lighting if dials and buttons. Have you played around with your ambient lighting? That's the other thing im jealous about. I would have it on that sharp blue colour and the highest intensity if I was you! Im chuffed for you pal. Where abouts are you based?

I've loved showing people it. the touchscreen looks really smart, considering it's not an FR it looks sporty with the 'dynamic 3' alloys and the tinted rear windows and obviously the more prominent crease lines.

  • @RickUnwin
    @RickUnwin 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's brilliant, I can't fault the handbrake at all, it's a lot more convenient and when you have learnt to give it your total faith and trust it becomes something you just forget about. And it is surprisingly satisfying to manually click the handbrake switch up.The 8" touchscreen is crisp and great to touch. Going through the menus and choosing your options on the screen is brilliant. The sat nav is brilliant and offers a lot of assistance and is so smooth following the car, no jerkiness at all and the resolution is crisp. The only criticism that I have is that the zooming in and out can sometimes be a bit difficult with pinching the screen in and out. You have to be a little more forceful than when you are tapping the screen to simply select options. ( there may be a sensitivity slider) I have not looked yet. But that is me being very critical. The 3.5" trip screen between the dials is under rated, its brilliant at assisting you with directions and the information that you can cycle through. The voice recognition is also spot on and the sat nav woman is brilliant, she says the right instructions at the exact time you want them. The instrument cluster looks great and just makes you want to keep driving with them bright white dials staring up at you. As you can tell, I am very excited and happy at the moment. Obviously it's very early days but if it carries on like this Seat is going to have a very happy customer. it feels elegant and grown up and you can chuck it into country roads and enjoy the handling around the corners. There are tonnes for me to try and investigate and try out.. cruise control etc. The radio is great yeah, the phone is easy to connect via bluetooth and displays contacts/ messages etc. I assume you will have the full link function..? which you will have to investigate yourself.

I'm surprised you didn't sleep in it last night lol. How's the 8 inch screen and DAB radio? Was it easy to connect your phone? I bet your still finding your way around it all. See there was no need to get an FR. You have got it all in that little beauty.. Enjoy it buddy. No news on mine yet.

    Hi Sean, The car is wonderful, It is much more than I was expecting, I don't want to get out of it ha! I drove it back from Huddersfield last night across the pennines in the sun and it was just glorious. The feel, the function and systems, the look, I think I'm in love ha. And I tell you what, considering I was nervous about the electronic handbrake and auto hold, after about 5 minutes I loved it, it is so efficient and will never leave you in the lurch. It's so safety savvy and just automatically disengages when you want to move. Much prefer it to the conventional ratchet design. What's the update with your fr?

      Hi mate, I ordered the 14 tsi fr eco technology end of January this year in Technic Grey.

      That has been a while. I can see there are added complications with it being the facelifted model... However I ordered my new facelifted SE dynamic Technology in nevada white on the 19th March and It has been made and shipped to England over the weekend and is now in a port in the South waiting to be transported up to the North. Obviously your car is a different trim and I believe fr's do have a slightly longer waiting time. I am due to have my car mid next week. I am really looking forward to it as it is my first car and I think it is a well kitted- out car for the money. The fr would obviously be nice to have but I saw the new dynamic technology in the flesh the other day for the first time ( my mates girlfriend had it as a company car for the day) and it looks more striking and attractive in real life than in pictures ( and it looked good anyway). The only down side with the new SE dynamic technology is that full LED headlights are an optional extra at £1025. you do get the re-sculpted LED daytime running lights which are small but very smart but its back to halogen headlamps. However the new 8" touchscreen and everything that comes with it is good kit and the rear parking sensors. Keep in touch with how you get on.

      morning mate, You must be so excited. The Nevada white is lovely. My last two vehicles were white and to be honest I would have had another one if the wife had let me lol. I'm desperately waiting for some news on my car. I let my old car go in February based on a March delivery on the Leon so I've been quiet a while now with no car. We sure do take our cars for granted. I'm missing a set of wheels for work, day to day stuff and just getting out on rest days. let me know when yours have arrived. 👍👍

      Yeah I am, very excited, I just hope there aren't any unexpected complications from now till taking delivery. I've been sharing my girlfriends 1 series for the past few months since I passed my test but can't wait to have something of my own with full responsibility of. The electric parking brake is something I am going to have to get used to lol! I think I will be nervous the first few times leaving it on a hill hoping that the technology of a switch will keep it in place! The touch that I love about the fr and am very jealous about is not only the full LED headlights but the ambient lighting that you can change the colour and intensity of in the cabin. I would love to have that function in the dynamic technology.
