The Editor

I would like to extend a warm welcome to regular
readers of Island Life, and to anyone who may
be picking up the Isle of Wight’s leading lifestyle
magazine for the first time.
In this edition we have two stories of true courage
and determination. Andrew Turner and his partner
Carole Dennett have chosen Island Life to give an
exclusive in-depth and emotional account of the
stroke the Island MP suffered nearly five years ago,
and how he has battled his way back towards a full
recovery.
We also highlight teenager Natasha Lambert, who
has become an accomplished sailor despite having to
cope with athetoid cerebral palsy, a severe disability.
Natasha is a shining example of how to overcome such
a problem and live life to the full.
We also talk to former BBC newsreader Kenneth
Kendall, who now runs a fine art gallery in Cowes.
IW Hunt President Sue Payne tells us why she made
the switch from ballet shoes to riding boots, and we
also meet the only man ever to be Commodore of
the Royal Solent Yacht Club twice, as well as former
Formula One world champion Nigel Mansell.
There are all the usual favourites, including
equestrian, food and drink, motoring
and health and beauty. So enjoy,
and please continue to support our
loyal advertisers who make this
complimentary publication possible.
